In reality, this would be little competition, or so Sephiroth thinks. But here, where only memory and dream rule, things ... inevitably change. If this is Leonardo's dream, and his dream says Sephiroth can't stand against such a threat, it may truly be so. His lifetime of skill and power could be meaningless here.
This knowledge doesn't prevent him from patiently taking his favored stance, blade raised, silent. He has nothing to say to this creature, it is in the end a figment of memory at best, and the dreamer was the one of importance.
Everything in the end depends on Leo. Sephiroth's ordinarily more than fast enough to dodge the incoming punch, strong enough to bring the indestructable sword around in one smooth motion to remove the entire offending arm in the doing ... but it's not his nightmare. There is something terribly, patiently experienced in the way he moves, but it may be for nothing as Masamune's brought around as both defense and offense to strike alien metal with ... what amounts to more alien metal.
