Chapter 415: Black Group's Devil Fruit Army
The original plan of the Blackbeard Pirates was to wait until Arthur and the World Government coalition were both defeated.
Then he can reap the benefits and maybe become the new king of this world.
Even if the plan fails, he can still escape with the help of Van Oka's ability.
But what he didn't know was how terrifying Arthur was, as he had completely inherited the three powers of extreme ice, soul cage, and the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.
Everything that happened now was like a bolt of lightning hitting his head, completely shattering his plans.
"You... why are you staring at me like that, Captain!" Van Oka noticed the murderous look in Titch's eyes, and immediately couldn't sit still, and yelled at him out of control,
"Didn't you customize all of this? Didn't you say you were going to kill him... Didn't you say you were going to be at the top of the world?! Are you really going to kill me... to appease him? Captain, we have dozens of Devil Fruit users. Look at how bloody he is. If we work together, we will definitely be able to take him down!"
Teach listened carefully to Van Oka's long speech, the heart-wrenching look in his insistence on convincing him.
He looked up at the sky again and saw Arthur standing in the air with no foothold.
Covered in blood, with several holes in the body, and covered with scars.
"Captain! Listen to me...! That guy definitely won't have the strength to attack us. You are the one who controls gravity! Captain!"
Gradually, Van Oka's voice became unclear in Teach's ears.
All the Black Group cadres witnessed the entire battle in the Elegia Sea with their own eyes through Zero's positioning Devil Fruit ability.
If it were someone else in the sky, even if it was Kaido or Big Mom, he would not choose to kill his companions to please the other party.
But the man in front of him was a fucking monster who could destroy the Celestial Dragons and such a huge coalition force by himself.
It was the monster he had been observing since the old days!
Thinking of this, Teach's right hand turned into an element, and the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit instantly wrapped around his entire right arm, aiming at Van Oka.
"Dark Water!"
Van Oka, who had been moving his mouth quickly, suddenly couldn't make any sound. Under the gaze of everyone, he was sucked into Teach's palm using the gravity of the Dark-Dark Fruit and his neck was strangled.
"Ahem...Captain! Teach..." Van Oka struggled desperately and felt Teach's determination to kill him.
"Shut up!!!" Veins bulged on Titch's forehead, and his fierce eyes almost devoured Van Oka. He smashed Van Oka into the ground of the dock with all his strength, making it completely impossible for him to speak.
Van Oka spat out a trace of blood, unable to believe that Teach would actually do this to him.
Teach considered the pros and cons and thought that Arthur was an emotional person. If he continued talking, he might even lose his life.
"Listen... I would rather kill you... than fight with him like that!" Teach said heartlessly to Van Oka on the ground.
In the sky above Beehive Island, Arthur had a gloomy smile on his face as he saw Teach below, fearing his strength, starting to punish Van Oka in an attempt to avenge the grudge he had made in the Laser Islands.
He looked down quietly, staring coldly at the Blackbeard Pirates.
In his eyes, all the people below were like ants. For the tiny benefits that were insignificant to Arthur, they began to intrigue against each other and staged the classic scene of pirates killing their companions to appease the anger of their enemies.
This feeling was something Arthur had never experienced again after he went to sea.
For him at this moment, it was very wonderful, pleasant and enjoyable.
Under this pleasure, Arthur's body gradually changed, and soon his body was covered with ice crystal spikes, and he stood in the air like a devil.
The sunny weather on Beehive Island, with a temperature of over 30 degrees, was suddenly enveloped by an extremely cold air.
"Arthur...?" Robin felt the murderous aura gradually spreading around Arthur's body, and looked at him in an instant, "You want..."
As if he had guessed something in advance, as if he had guessed something.
Before she could finish her words, a scarlet pressure swept across the entire Honeycomb Island below like the collapse of the sky.
The pressure from the domineering color that is blessed with the power of the devil is more than twice as strong as the pressure from Arthur's human form.
The next second after the pressure of the Conqueror's Haki descended, the pirates on the Beehive Island turned into blood mist one after another and diffused in the air.
The bodies of the weak pirates seemed to have evaporated, leaving nothing behind.
As for those slightly stronger pirates, their bodies were squeezed into a ball of meat by the pressure, with their internal organs, bones, brain matter, and blood splattered all over the ground.
Arthur stood in the sky, his hands open, enjoying the extreme pleasure brought by killing and said loudly,
"Do you think I will play pirate games with you? Just watch you act casually? No, Teach, I will tear you and your men into pieces with my frost claws just like I tore apart that meteorite."
The scorching sun was high in the sky, scorching the pirate town of Beehive Island which was devastated in an instant.
The blood mist dyed the sand red.
The boiling blood was steaming with a fishy smell, and it formed hideous lines on the wall panels of the building, dyeing the midday sun bloody.
On the dock, Blackbeard, who was holding down Van Oka, watched the pirates around him disappear into mist one after another, his face turning extremely pale.
He could imagine that Arthur still had great power, but he didn't expect that he would still be so terrifying and domineering after experiencing that great battle.
"This domineering aura is so suffocating... Damn it!" Blackbeard was under pressure. The feeling of being enveloped by Arthur's domineering aura was as uncomfortable as having a mountain pressing down on him.
"Since I'm going to die anyway, and I'd rather die in your hands, let me, as a swordsman, fight you." Xilu activated the ability of the devil fruit, and domineering aura lingered around his body to resist the pressure brought by Arthur's terrifying domineering aura.
He instantly drew his sword and rushed towards the air where Arthur was.
"Damn it!" Seeing this, Teach activated the ability of the Gravity Fruit again and summoned a huge meteorite from outer space to appear above the Honeycomb Island.
"Broken Jar! The only way to survive is to kill him!" Avalo Pizarro controlled the entire island, raised a huge hand, clenched his fist and swung it towards Arthur.
The active cadres acted collectively and quickly formulated a battle strategy against Arthur.
Only Wang Zhi, under the pressure of Arthur's domineering aura, picked up a brand new bottle of rum from a barrel at the dock, opened the bottle cap and sighed.
“I didn’t have high expectations.”
Wang Zhi, whose hair and beard are all white and whose face has age spots, does not have much fighting spirit or desire to fight.
He surrendered to Blackbeard just to enjoy a few days of peace in his old age.
Ambition was something that had been buried deep in John's heart since the incident of John capturing Arthur Eagle 22 years ago.
"Wang Zhi! You have fought with him before, so you should know how to deal with him!" Teach used the full power of both fruits and asked Wang Zhi with a nervous look on his face.
"Gugugugu." Wang Zhi took a sip of rum, looking calm and savoring the taste. He turned his head and stared at Teach who asked him the question, and replied,
"A solution? If there was a solution, he would have been killed by the World Government by now, Teach."
"You frustrated old thing! I should kill you!" Tiqi cursed secretly, but he didn't expect that Wang Zhi was not going to help at all.
"Before you despair, be ambitious, Teach, let me see what your devil fruit army is capable of?" Wang Zhi said again.
"Life should have some challenging desires!" Xiliu's voice came from the sky. The Thunderstorm Blade in his hand emitted a scarlet light and slashed at Arthur with all his strength.
"I've had enough of this boring life!"
Facing Shiliu's approach, Arthur didn't care, but turned around and looked at Robin.
"You've been so spoiled for so long, isn't it time to take action?"
