Chapter 864 Want to Get on Board

Chapter 864 Want to Get on Board

"You have great ambition! But you'd better be careful. You should have seen the power of Blackbeard's Dark-Dark Fruit. It is very effective against other Devil Fruits. But now you have learned Ryuo and Hachan. I'm not too worried. It's just that Blackbeard has a hidden ability. You have to be careful!"

"Hidden ability?"

"Yes! Blackbeard's Dark-Dark Fruit can plunder the fruit abilities of others. When Blackbeard and his gang last appeared on the top, it was to seize the ability of Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit!

When I rushed to rescue Marco and the others, I found that Joz was also covered with a piece of cloth. They did the same thing to Whitebeard on the top. This was a ritual for them to seize the power of the fruit, but they were scared away by me and failed to seize it.

This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Blackbeard can possess multiple fruit abilities at the same time without exploding and dying. You have to be careful about this. He will definitely plunder very powerful fruit abilities to enhance himself. Don't be caught off guard by his sudden ability!

As for how many abilities he can possess at the same time, I don't know either, just assume he has three and be prepared. The ability he chooses for himself will definitely not be bad, so you must remember this!"

Vic had no reason to persuade Ace now. He wanted to avenge his father, how could he speak? So Vic could only inform Ace of Blackbeard's possible hidden means in advance. With Ace's current strength, it would not be so easy to get into trouble if he was prepared. This was another reason why Vic did not stop him.

"Teach actually has this ability! No wonder he is so ambitious. I won't go looking for him alone. We are all Daddy's children. No one will miss such an important moment as revenge!"

Although what happened to Blackbeard was bizarre, Ace did not doubt Wick's statement. This was the result of time revealing a person's true character. Ever since Garp brought Wick to see him, Wick has never lied to him. He may not have understood it before, but looking back at the past from the perspective of now, he can find that Wick has always been making every effort to help him and Luffy. This is the most touching thing!

"It's good that you think so. Go ahead. Marco and the others have been waiting for your return. The Whitebeard Pirates will depend on you in the future. Come to me if you need anything!"

Vic patted Ace's shoulder and said with relief that Ace was more mature than two years ago and would no longer act impulsively. In fact, impulsiveness was Ace's weakness, and Blackbeard had used this to achieve many of his goals before. Now that Ace has changed, he will only become stronger, and Vic will not have to worry about him!

"Mr. Vick! Thank you for your help and care all the time. I am grateful! If you need my help in the future, please let me know!"

"Yeah! Go ahead!"

Ace also wanted to meet up with Marco and the others as soon as possible, so he bowed deeply to Vic and spoke sincerely.

Vic responded, and watched the flames from Ace's feet shoot up into the sky, and fly away like a rocket. Vic's thoughts drifted away, and he murmured, "I'll definitely be able to help you in the future!"

Ace did not fly directly away from the waters of Titan Island, but went to an island nearby. He wanted to build a small boat that could be powered by fire there for sailing. Even though Ace is very powerful now, it is impossible for him to use his ability to fly in the sky all the time. If he runs out of energy and still can't find the island, he will be doomed.

The ship that Ace is going to build now is bigger than the small boat he used when he chased Blackbeard two years ago. Now that he has developed the Flame-Flame Fruit more deeply and for a longer period of time, he naturally can't stay on that kind of small boat anymore, so the structure and size of the boat also need to be changed.

On the other side, Vic had already walked to Ace's residence and collected the pure gold inside. Although Ace noticed something unusual about it, it was prepared for him by Vic, and he was too embarrassed to ask for it!

Naturally, Vic would not leave such treasures here. If they were discovered by the people of the World Government, it would be a disaster. People like Im are not immortal. At most, he can only live for two thousand years in the realm of gods. At his level, the only thing he can care about is immortality. At that time, he will definitely do it at all costs. There is no need for Vic to take the risk!

"Barrett! Our bet has expired. You are free! You can challenge me anytime you want."

When Vic came out of Ace's residence, he saw Barrett waiting outside, so he started to send him away. Vic didn't want to provoke a martial arts fanatic like Barrett, as most of these people were not smart and could do anything. Now that the other party had helped Ace, he couldn't kill him directly, so he could only send him away.

"What? You want to challenge me now? Come on, so you don't have to spend time looking for me later."

Seeing that Barrett didn't leave or say anything, Vic thought that Barrett wanted to challenge him now, so he asked the other party to make a move.

"No! I don't want to challenge you. I know I am no match for you even now. I want to get on your ship!"

Barrett was wearing a military uniform with an expressionless face. Military uniforms were his hobby. He collected a lot of different types of military uniforms. It was also a hobby he developed when he joined the army at a young age.

Although Barrett said he wanted to board Vic's ship, there was no hint of request in his tone. He was still as cold and hard, but his eyes were a little burning.

"Have you forgotten the hatred between us? There is no trust between us. I can't let you get on board!"

Vic didn't expect Barrett to do this. He was ready to take action, but he was not very surprised. Barrett admired the strong and was once defeated by Roger, and then he boarded Roger's ship.

But after getting on the ship, he was restless and challenged everyone from time to time. Jabba, Rayleigh and Roger were all challenged, but he mainly challenged Roger, who was the strongest.

Vic doesn't want to let someone who wants to challenge him from time to time get on the boat. It's not because he is afraid that he can't beat him, but because it's troublesome. If he doesn't get on his boat and wants to challenge him, he can ignore him. But it's different once he gets on the boat. It's hard to hide!

"That Momotosagi is in the New World now, I think she's fine. No marines died in that battle, right? What kind of grudge is that? I don't mind you sending me to Impel Down, why can't you let me get on board?"

Barrett did not give up. It's not like he hadn't read the newspapers. Peach Rabbit, who was hurt the most by him, is fine now. He didn't bother to attack the weak at the beginning, and the low-level marines are also fine. So in Barrett's view, this is not a grudge at all, and no one really died.

"Momotu is indeed not dead, but she has endured the pain of broken bones and tendons. That is a pain worse than death. We do not have a life-and-death feud, but we have other grudges. You and your men have been imprisoned in Pushing Fort for more than ten years. After such a long period of imprisonment, how can you not have any resentment at all?"

It must be said that Vic was an expert in medicine, otherwise Gion would definitely not have survived. His body was almost flattened, his internal organs were damaged, his bones were shattered, and he had intracranial bleeding. Vic had pulled him back from the brink of death, so how could he let it go so easily!

What's more, the other party still has more than ten years in prison. Vic has heard a lot about those who seek revenge after being released from prison. The worst case is Zefa's wife and children, who were killed by such people, so Vic will not believe it easily.

"In my life, I admire the strong the most. I don't care about anything else. As long as you fight me every once in a while, I will obey your orders until I defeat you. Let me get on the boat. I will be a very obedient subordinate!"

Barrett refused to give up. This was the reason why he joined Roger's pirate group. Roger was stronger than him, so he listened to Roger. Now Vic is stronger than him, so he listens to Vic. This is also a psychological disease left over from Barrett's military service since he was a child!

He needs a strong person to command him, give him orders, and give him direction, and this person must be stronger than him, so he will challenge him every once in a while to see if the person he is loyal to is stronger than him!
