Luffy's fight against the admirals of the marines.

- R1 (Special Skill): When used on the ground, Marco's limbs turn into phoenix form and he rises into the air. When used airborne, Marco's limbs turn into phoenix form and he descends to the ground. This allows him to toggle between being on the ground or being in the air. He will drag enemies with him in the direction he's going.
Fighting Style
Marco ate an unnamed Devil Fruit, a very rare type of fruit classified as a Mythical Zoan type, which is said to be even rarer than Logia fruits. While other Zoan Devil Fruits shown in the series allow the user to transform into pre-existing animals, Mythical Zoan types allow the user to transform into mythological beings that may or may not exist. Such beings usually also possess other fantastical abilities, which the eater can fully utilize.
Marco ate a Mythical Zoan type fruit that allows him to transform partially or fully into a Phoenix of blue flames. His mastery of his fruit is so great that he can transform selective parts of his body without affecting others, such as only transforming his arms into his Phoenix wings. By doing so, Marco gains the rare ability of flight, and his fighting style revolves around unleashing aerial strikes on enemies while remaining mobile in the air. Because he needs to use his arms/wings to fly, Marco developed a combat style that revolves around his immense leg strength, allowing him to perform powerful kicking techniques. His kicks can be further enhanced into sharp slashes, by turning his feet into his Phoenix talons. His R1 allows him to smoothly transition between the air and the ground, and by incorporating it into his strings, players can seamlessly chain combos together with him, keeping him in the air for as long as possible and not giving enemies a chance to rest.
As the Phoenix is said to rise again from its own ashes, Marco's phoenix powers allow him to regenerate from injuries, increasing his resilience tremendously. This is achieved by performing his Level 1 Musou attack, which regenerates a portion of his health.
