He has a humongous sea turtle that could wreck Chrysoar's pirate ship and eat his dolphin crew. All so he's a son of Poseidon so Chrysoar can't use his hydrokinetic powers in the fight. Chrysoar may be a great swordsman but there's a reason the sword died off and the gun became king. But the question is does Sciron actually have power over water? He seems to be able to control the giant turtle, but then again it has eaten him...twice. Lets say that their fight plays out like in the MoA, the turtle lures Chrysaor's ship into that little area and Sciron calls him up, when he reaches the top of the cliff, where there is no water anyway, who would win?

Personally I would go with Chrysaor. For whatever reason, Sciron's main goal always seems to be getting whoever to wash his feet before kicking them off a cliff to his turtle. While the smell of his feet might be impossible for a normal person to deal with, Chrysaor isn't a normal person. We don't even know if he is a person; he could be some kind of monster or maybe the smell could be filtered by the golden mask (gold in the series has been known to nullify certain things). I could see Chrysaor blocking the mythical kick with his sword, causing Sciron to cut his own foot. Then being as close as he is, finishing the gunslinger with a quick slash of his sword. If he is really as good as Ares, he could probably block bullets with his sword; plus if he is some kind of monster, a few bullets wouldn't hurt him that much and he would heal eventually. If you put the two of them on an even playing field and told the two to kill each other I doubt Scrion will be concerned about having Chrysoar wash his feet. Granted his smelly feet may keep Chrysoar at bay at first but I doubt it's gonna determine the fight. I remember a fight on Deadliest Warrior where they pitted a Pirate against a Knight and the Pirate won about 62.9% of the time because he used firearms. Also it's extremely difficult to block bullets with a sword, especially when the shooter is a gifted and well trained marksman.
