Plainly, both of those cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X-T10 using its smaller sensor will make getting shallower DOF more difficult and the Leica SL2 will result in extra detail because of its extra 31MP. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop photos way more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X-T10 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
