Also, I didn't say Percy has gotten weaker in Sword-fighting. He's out of practice, which isn't surprising, since he has barely trained, and has been asleep most of the time. As for Jason, hasn't the quote already shown you? Percy and Jason were exactly equal, despite Jason training far more than Percy, while Percy was out of practice, with no training the last 8 months. It just shows that despite Percy being out of practice, or rusty, Jason himself can't defeat him. If Percy was at his best, it's most likely he would've defeat him, at least after quite a while. Sorry didn't see the hurricane part.

Anyway about the whole Percy was asleep thing. It says that Percy spent weeks training with Lupa so that he could be back into shape. Besides it doesn't look like he was out of practice when he fought a small army of ghost

Oh and when you mentioned "Percy was at his best" what do you mean? Percy's skills with a sword or with all his abilities since we see that Percy's powers are always growing. So we can agree to disagree about the sword fighting thing but we are having a Percy and Jason at the end of Blood of Olympus fight right?

I completely forgot about that. Never mind. About "Percy at his best", you should realize, compare to the PJ series, Percy had very few training. Also, as Percy mentions, his powers have grown, but hasn't gotten better at sword fighting. Percy has roughly become quite a bit out of practiced in HoO.
