A vast ocean stretched endlessly, swallowing the remnants of land, the sky itself darkened by the sheer volu of water that Poseidon had conjured.
His trident glead with divine power, pulsating with the rhythm of the sea, while titanic waves crashed around him, forming a roaring aquatic storm that threatened to erase all in its path.
Poseidon stood in the center of the storm, his skin shimring under the eerie glow of the water. His eyes glowed green, filled with the might of the boundless ocean.
Across from him, Coeus remained completely calm.
Despite being at the center of an enemy's domain, the Titan of Intelligence showed no sign of panic.
His hair floated gently around him, his piercing gaze studying everything; Poseidon's stance, the way the water moved, the speed at which the tides shifted.
Everything.
He was calculating. Analyzing.
It was then, Poseidon raised his trident.
The ocean responded.
A massive column of water surged upward, carrying entire islands with it, the sheer pressure enough to crush any being caught within.
Coeus remained unfazed.
"He controls the sea well... but he thinks like a brute. Sa as three yeara ago." With a slight movent, he tried to fly up, intending to escape the rising ocean.
But Poseidon had predicted that.
The sea swallowed him whole.
Millions of tons of water crashed upon Coeus, dragging him into the abyss of Poseidon's domain.
Poseidon grinned. "Got him."
But then, sothing changed.
Even through the crushing water, even in the depths of the abyss—Coeus did not struggle.
Instead, he sighed. "I really don't want to do this because it makes feel like a brute. But I must end this fight as soon as possible."
His eyes burned.
Then, he activated his other authority.
The ocean trembled.
Poseidon felt it imdiately. "What the—?!"
The water split apart.
It wasn't Poseidon who willed it.
The sea itself rebelled against its master.
The impossible had happened—the entire battlefield, the endless ocean that Poseidon had created, was being torn asunder.
Poseidon barely had ti to process his shock before the world suddenly tilted.
Gravity itself shifted, and Poseidon was flung backward.
"The hell!?"
The force was imnse.
The sky itself turned sideways, and for a mont, it was as if the very laws of nature had been rewritten.
Poseidon's feet scraped against the newly exposed seabed, his trident digging into the ground as he tried to steady himself.
But it was useless.
The entire planet was shifting.
"What... what the hell is this power?!"
Then, winter arrived.
A deafening howl of icy winds erupted from the heavens, so fierce that it carried the cries of nature itself.
The sea, Poseidon's domain, his greatest weapon, froze instantly.
A single mont.
That was all it took.
The endless ocean that had once swallowed the battlefield was no longer an ocean.
It was an expanse of ice.
Poseidon stood, his body tense, his breath visible in the freezing air.
His hands trembled. It wasn't because of the cold, but he was in shock.
This wasn't normal ice. This was a divine phenonon. Even as the Lord of the Seas, Poseidon felt it, his power was being suppressed.
"How...?"
Coeus finally spoke.
"I control the Celestial Axis. The very foundation of movent, gravity, and the cycles of the world. With a thought, I can tilt reality itself, command the seasons, and dictate the forces that govern the universe."
His voice was calm—almost bored.
"My brothers like to make fun of because I always prefer fighting with my intellect, but I really don't want to look like a brute."
His eyes glowed as he took a step forward. "But this ti I really don't have any choice, you godlings have really beco such a threat that must be eliminated imdiately."
Another tilt.
Poseidon stumbled as the world shifted again, his balance thrown off by the erratic changes in gravity.
It wasn't just the battlefield—the planet itself was Coeus' weapon.
Poseidon gritted his teeth.
"So this is the power of a Titan…"
He had trained for three years, endured countless hardships, pushed himself beyond his limits.
And yet—
Here, standing before him, was a being who wasn't even breaking a sweat.
The realization angered him.
"Tch…"
He slamd his foot into the frozen ground, shattering the ice beneath him.
"Alright then," Poseidon growled, his voice echoing through the vast, frozen wasteland. "A fight of brute force? Let's see how you handle this!"
The frozen ocean quaked as Poseidon lifted his trident, and imdiately the earth trembled.
Poseidon's trident struck the frozen ground, sending violent tremors across the battlefield.
The sound of cracking ice echoed like a chorus of destruction, and in an instant, the once-solid expanse of frozen ocean began to fracture apart.
Coeus, still standing tall, narrowed his eyes. "An earthquake?"
A second later—BOOM!
The ground shattered like glass beneath his feet.
The titan imdiately realized Poseidon's intent.
"So you're more than just child playing with water."
Massive chasm-like cracks spread across the frozen battlefield, swallowing chunks of ice into the black abyss below.
The world quaked violently, and everything was shifting—not from Coeus' celestial axis, but from Poseidon's raw destructive power.
Coeus adjusted his stance, focusing on counteracting the sudden instability.
But Poseidon wasn't done.
"Hah! I've used my authority over the sea so much everyone forgot I am also the God of Earthquake!"
With a mighty heave, he swung his trident, and the ice imdiately exploded.
"I AM POSEIDON! THE EARTH SHAKER!"
Coeus was forced to leap back as the ground beneath him erupted into a geyser of water, surging toward the heavens like a tidal wave.
Poseidon smirked, watching the Titan move.
"I will not let what happened three years ago to happen again. This ti, I will crush you."
With a powerful leap, he rushed toward Coeus, spinning his trident with masterful precision. The air bood from his sheer speed, and in a blink, he was face-to-face with his opponent.
"Try keeping up with this!"
Poseidon unleashed a rapid barrage of thrusts, each blow powerful enough to shatter mountains. His movents were fluid, like the waves of the ocean, yet each strike carried the weight of an earthquake.
Coeus dodged, parried, countered, but Poseidon kept pressing forward.
For the first ti in their battle, Coeus struggled.
Poseidon was getting faster. Stronger.
Coeus' calculations, which once predicted the fight's flow with absolute certainty, were failing.
He gritted his teeth, raising his arms, a celestial barrier materialized around him, shimring with divine energy.
Poseidon's trident slamd into it, and it shattered instantly.
Coeus' eyes widened. 'Ridiculous! How was that possible!?'
Poseidon didn't give him ti to recover.
The god of the sea roared, stomping his foot on the ground...
BOOOOM!
A massive tremor sent shockwaves rippling through the ice, causing entire sections of it to collapse into the abyss below.
Coeus, despite his power, was thrown off balance for half a second.
Half a second too long.
Poseidon seized the mont.
He launched forward, swinging his trident in a devastating arc aid straight for Coeus' chest.
Coeus barely had ti to react. He shifted the celestial axis, trying to redirect Poseidon's montum, but Poseidon had already accounted for that.
With a brutal twist, Poseidon slamd his foot onto the ice and stopped himself mid-charge—using the sudden halt to amplify the force of his next strike.
CRACK!
The blow sent Coeus flying.
He crashed into the frozen sea, the ice around him cratering upon impact.
Poseidon laughed.
"What's wrong, oh mighty Titan? You've gotten sloppy! Is it because you can no longer find any chance of winning in this fight?"
Coeus slowly rose from the wreckage. His expression was still as calm as ever. "Not in the slightest."
He exhaled, his eyes flickering with new resolve.
"I had hoped to avoid this," Coeus admitted. "But I can see now—you are not an opponent I can defeat with restraint."
Poseidon narrowed his eyes.
"What, you saying this isn't even your final form?"
Coeus lifted his hand, and the heavens themselves responded.
The sky twisted. The constellations above shifted out of alignnt.
Poseidon felt a pull, a gravitational force far greater than anything he had felt before.
"I will no longer hold back." Coeus' voice was calm, yet absolute. "I will show you the full extent of my authority."
Poseidon braced himself.
Then, the world tilted again.
But this ti, it wasn't just the battlefield.
It was everything.
Poseidon felt it—his sense of direction shattering, his weight shifting in unnatural ways.
One mont, he was standing—the next, he was falling.
But falling where?
It was impossible to tell. The axis of reality had been completely severed.
Poseidon gritted his teeth.
"DAMN IT! I'LL CRRUSH EVERYTHING HERE THEN!"
With a roar, he slamd his trident downward, and...
BOOOOOOM!
A massive earthquake erupted from beneath him, sending shockwaves so powerful that they forced reality to stabilize for a split second.
That was all Poseidon needed.
He shot forward like a torpedo, weaving through the collapsing space, aiming straight for Coeus.
Coeus reacted imdiately, sending a wave of gravitational force to crush Poseidon mid-flight.
But Poseidon kept going.
He spun his trident, cutting through the gravity like a blade through water.
"For soone with such a powerful domain, you have no idea how to use it at all! So much for your intelligence!"
And in the next instant—
Poseidon threw his trident.
The divine weapon pierced through Coeus' gravity field, heading straight for him.
Coeus barely dodged, but Poseidon was already moving again.
He slamd his foot down, and the battlefield trembled once more.
Cracks spread beneath Coeus' feet.
And then, water erupted from below.
A hidden reservoir of the ocean Poseidon had buried beneath the ice—had just been released.
It engulfed Coeus completely.
For the first ti, Coeus looked genuinely surprised.
Poseidon grinned. "If soone who actually knows how to fight were to have your authority, even I'm not confident on winning."
The ocean dragged Coeus down, deeper, deeper into the abyss.
Coeus struggled, shifting the celestial axis, trying to break free, but it was too late.
Poseidon had sealed his fate.
"You lose."
Coeus' eyes burned one last ti, before the darkness soon consud him.
The titan vanished into the abyss, lost to the endless depths of the sea.
Poseidon exhaled as he clutched his side.
Before spitting out a mouthful of golden ichor.
The shift in reality earlier completely ssed up his innards, and he was sure all of his internal organs were either destroyed, or severely damaged.
If he didn't force himself to hold on, he would've died then and there.
But for now, he had won.
And that's more than enough.
