Chapter 849 7 Wu Hai Eating Watermelon
"Captain! When will my fruit ability be resolved?"
Bugles really envies people with special abilities. He is quite positive in this regard and is also quite picky about their abilities. This can be seen from his later participation in the battle for the Flame-Flame Fruit held by Doflamingo at the Drosrosa Arena.
At that time, Blackbeard was already one of the Four Emperors, so it should have been easy for him to obtain devil fruit powers, but Bugles never had one. Maybe he was just waiting for Ace's powers to be reborn, or maybe he was too picky about powers and never liked any of them. No matter which one it was, he definitely hoped to obtain powerful powers. Now that Blackbeard can no longer be one of the Four Emperors, he has even fewer choices.
"Teach! It seems like there's something seriously wrong with your plan. Can we really achieve our ambitions now?"
Shiryu also spoke out. When he was pushing forward the city, he was convinced by Blackbeard's long-term plan. However, now the plan has gone astray. He sees no hope of realizing his ambitions and has already thought about breaking up.
However, before leaving, he still wanted to get some benefits from Blackbeard, such as obtaining the power of the fruit of love. Blackbeard told them that he could take away the power of the fruit, but they had never seen it before.
Several people on the sixth floor of Impel Down also looked at Blackbeard, wanting to see what he was thinking. They had originally gathered together because of their own ambitions, and now that the future was uncertain, they naturally wanted to see Blackbeard's next plan.
"Whitebeard's territory has been taken over by Thor, and the other territories have already had owners. They are not people we can afford to offend now. Don't think too much about the territory, just take it one step at a time!
What we need to do next is to accumulate strength and become stronger. When we get to the next island, I will show you the miracle of my ability to seize the fruit. As long as we give us time, those territories will be ours sooner or later, and the final great treasure will also be ours!"
Blackbeard also saw what those people meant. They were like this if they were not his original team members. It was difficult for them to be open with him. They wanted to break up as soon as they saw that he was weak, so he had to give them any guarantees.
As long as these people see his ability to seize devil fruits, they will naturally settle down. With this ability, how big a force can be formed? It is simply unimaginable. It will really snowball and grow bigger and bigger. The whole ocean will be terrified by it!
All the people with special abilities will be in danger, even Tony Tony Chopper will worry about his abilities being taken away. This is indeed the case two years later in the original work, and the Blackbeard Pirates have become notorious.
"Okay! Let us see your so-called miracle."
Shiryu is also a smart man. If Blackbeard really has this ability, it would be easy for him to form a big force, but because of Vic's intervention, they have never seen it.
Shiryu had asked Blackbeard to use that ability before. After all, he met some people with special abilities along the way. However, Blackbeard always claimed that the abilities of those fruits were too weak and was unwilling to plunder them and give them to them, so he never used it.
Now, regardless of whether they are weak or not, Blackbeard has to come once to show them that there is no hope for the territory. If the ability to seize power is just an empty promise, then there is really no need to stay any longer.
The Blackbeard Pirates have experienced a crisis of trust due to Vic's repeated intrusions, but Blackbeard did not lie. If it weren't for Vic, all his plans would have come true, and Blackbeard would have led them to become the Four Emperors.
It's just that it will be more difficult and time-consuming to achieve these goals now, but with Blackbeard's wisdom and fruit ability, the success rate of achieving these goals is still very high. Just avoid Vic and the others in the later stage!
……
On the Calm Belt Island in the first half of the Grand Line, Luffy is fighting a giant elephant. Although he has initially awakened his domineering power, it is sometimes effective and sometimes not, so Luffy is always at a disadvantage in the battle.
"Roger! It seems that the new era you mentioned has arrived. Shanks! Vic! Will you be the next one?"
Rayleigh, holding a newspaper in his hand, raised his head and looked in the direction of Luffy, with a white light flashing on his glasses. Although Luffy in front of him was hit by the elephant's trunk and flew away, Rayleigh's gaze under his glasses was particularly hot!
……
"Lord Vic! You are still so powerful, and you became the emperor without making any noise. Ah! When I saw your bounty order, I wanted to go..."
Inside the palace of Nine Snake Island, Hancock sat on a throne made of coiled pythons, looking at the bounty order in her hand with an obsessed look, and placed her other hand on her face, trying to cool down her burning cheeks, otherwise her brain might start to burn!
"What's wrong with you, Grandma? Why are you acting like this just because of a bounty?"
Looking at the empress who was slowly twisting her body on the throne with a blushing face, the fighters of the Nine Snakes Pirate Group were confused. She really couldn't understand this, so she asked the experienced and knowledgeable woman next to her.
"Lady Snake has a terminal illness! A terminal illness of love! There is no cure! Alas!"
The mother-in-law was a smart person. She knew what was going on at a glance. She shook her head, sighed, and left the hall with her crutches!
"Terminal illness? The terminal illness of love? Is Lady Snake going to die? Lady Snake! Please don't die, you must not die!..."
……
In the New World of Dressrosa, Doflamingo was also reading the shocking news in today's newspaper.
"Another red-haired guy? He became the emperor without making any noise! How did he do it? He is so much younger than me! Is it because of the power of the fruit or the team? What's wrong with me?"
After reading the newspaper and bounty in his hand, Doflamingo looked up at the group of ugly family members below and fell into deep thought. He suspected that his fruit ability was too poor. Although he had tried his best to develop it, the upper limit of the String-String Fruit was there, and it was always inferior to the natural type and the mythical beast type.
But his ability was offered to him by his family members when he was a child when they pledged their allegiance to him. At that time, he didn't have much choice and didn't quite understand the ins and outs of it. He just ate it without thinking. In terms of the ability of the fruit, he really has a shortcoming, and he was completely betrayed by his family members.
Moreover, his family is no match for Victor's companions. Rebecca's fruit ability alone is beyond his reach. His predecessor was Shiki, the Golden Lion who competed with the Pirate King. Doflamingo really envies Rebecca!
What's more, he couldn't beat the other party. Last time, he was chased and beaten and almost died. Look at the other person's companions, and then look at his own ugly face. There is a world of difference between them!
"Is this the foundation needed for the Four Emperors? No wonder they can become the Four Emperors! I have been dragged down by you guys since I was a child. Sigh! Now I can only please Kaido and maintain a good relationship with him! In this world, we must face reality after all!"
Although Doflamingo felt that the family cadres were all fools, he had no intention of giving up. After all, they had lived and worked together for so many years, and they called him Young Master so sincerely that they would have feelings for him, just like a dog after raising him for so many years. What's more, he was the one being raised in the beginning!
The name of Red Hair just flashed in Doflamingo's mind and then disappeared. Maybe he didn't want to face this person. In fact, Red Hair Shanks was a few years younger than Doflamingo, and he was a person with a broken arm and no special ability. Yet he was able to become one of the Four Emperors. With the examples of Wick and Red Hair, it was clear that it was not because of the devil fruit. Doflamingo should know the real reason very well, but he was really unwilling to uncover the truth and face himself!
……
On Kraikana Island, Hawkeye has not started to instruct Zoro today, but Zoro got up early and started fighting with those baboons. The sound of metal collision could be heard from time to time, but it did not affect Hawkeye's reading of the newspaper.
"Redhead! Vic! You are both emperors now! Am I too low-key? Or have I been too comfortable all these years?"
……
An unknown island in the New World. Crocodile and Daz Bonis ventured here after experiencing the War of Marineford.
Crocodile, who was quite smart, was smoking a cigar and reading a newspaper while sitting on a wooden box like a gangster. Daz Bonis stood upright beside him with his arms folded, his eyes glancing around from time to time, like a responsible bodyguard.
"He became the emperor so quickly, and his bounty is rising so fast. It turned out to be the right move to befriend him. I could tell from the first meeting that he is not on the same level as us! Being a pirate really requires a good brain. Those without brains won't survive long!"
Looking at the news in the newspaper, Crocodile was full of emotion. Daz Bonis, who heard his emotion, just glanced at the photos in the newspaper and didn't say anything. He had already made his choice in his heart.
