The winter air bit with a raw, metallic chill as my blade met hers—a shimmering, translucent thing of solid ice. Frost crept up my steel, but I held firm. A hail of icicles shattered against my movements, yet she flowed through the chaos with unsettling grace. Locked in our clash, her smile wasn't one of effort, but quiet amusement. Then a blur of straw hat and pure instinct—Luffy—crashed through her frozen defense with a single, decisive punch. The ice dissolved into mist. Silence descended, thick and heavy.

But the space between her and me stayed sharp, cold, and utterly unresolved.
