Pirate, I am the demon fox that brings disaster to the world!

"Tsk! Damn it! Damn it! Why...!

He actually got it?!

That fruit!!!"

Pagani Island, after Lucas's final explosion, the island has completely disappeared from the map. Only scattered driftwood floating on the sea and a huge hole in the center that seems to never be filled still show what kind of battle this place has experienced.

And among these scattered pieces of driftwood, Teach's shouts of jealousy and unwillingness were extremely clear, and each roar seemed to reveal the grief and indignation of all previous efforts being wasted.

Fortunately, he was on the edge of the island and not in the center of the explosion. Therefore, after struggling to survive round after round of tsunamis that were more than ten meters or even dozens of meters high, Teach was finally able to survive.

Having followed the Whitebeard Pirates for so long and experienced many chaotic battles between pirates, Teach is at least experienced in surviving. His strong physique and alien structure are one aspect. When he fought against the flying fleet of Shiki the Golden Lion, he also encountered similar tsunamis many times.

However, although he was lucky enough to survive, living became an even more painful thing for Teach.

In the Devil Fruit encyclopedia that he had read repeatedly, the only Devil Fruit that could suppress fruit abilities and render them invalid was the Dark-Dark Fruit. Combined with the characteristics of Yakumo Shira when he used his abilities, the fact was already certain!

My last ray of hope has been ruthlessly extinguished!

The Dark Dark Fruit eventually became an empty dream, so what was the point of all these years of forbearance and dormancy? !

"Seizing someone's opportunity is like killing their parents! Yakumo Haku! I will remember you!"

Extreme anger made Teach bite his lip, and strands of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth. His eyes were filled with unspeakable viciousness and venom, like a poisonous snake lurking in the dark, which made people shudder.

Teach, or Blackbeard, is ultimately the Blackbeard who can replace Edward Newgate in the original work.

A person who can endure for decades has an extremely strong mind. You can say that he is frivolous and conceited, or you can say that he is despicable and cruel, but you cannot doubt his loyalty to his ambition!

The pain of a lifetime of insomnia, the patience and suffering of dormant endurance, the hard support and hope that cannot be obtained...

People's dreams will never end!

Just as this guy said, before his life burns out, he will still pursue his dream (ambition) devoutly, even if he dies on this road!

Meanness is the passport of the mean, and nobility is the epitaph of the noble. If the road ahead is unobstructed, he doesn't mind engraving what the world calls conspiracy and meanness into the depths of his heart and soul, just to vent his desires and carry his ambitions!

The fact is, the current situation is no different from waiting for the Dark-Dark Fruit for a lifetime. On the contrary, it has saved a lot of time...

At this point, Teach could only comfort himself in this way, but fortunately, before he decided to infiltrate the Whitebeard Pirates, he had already considered this worst-case scenario -

"The original plan was to combine the three strongest fruits into one: darkness, earthquake, and *... With absolute strength and the ability to plunder fruits, the whole world would be at my fingertips!

But now the Dark-Dark Fruit has fallen into the hands of Yakumo Shiro, and it must not be forced, so it is not a short-term solution to revive the fruit…”

Teach thought with a gloomy expression, his eyes moving back and forth on a scorched and sea-soaked figure beside him.

"Then, there is only that alternative... Taking * as the core, integrating the other two to become the strongest fantasy beast!

Even if this will lead to endless killing and corruption!"

"Zhei Haha~~~You have to thank me! Chief Lucas...I can give you a chance for revenge! Such an opportunity may not come once in a lifetime!"

The low laughter still floated on the sea, and only Teach understood at this moment how strong the will to survive of the guy next to him was.

The explosion of the power rock tore through the momentary suppression of darkness, and the split second of life and death aroused an unprecedented instinctive desire for survival in those on the verge of death!

Even though it had lost its breath like a corpse, the power of wish still responded as always. In the blink of an eye, the fantasy power of the devil fruit caused this body to resonate wonderfully with the power rock and merge so deeply into one.

It can be said that Lucas is now equivalent to a Power Rock Man who ate the Explosion-Explosion Fruit, and the effect it produces is definitely far greater than the increase of one plus one...

However, such a fusion also has a fatal flaw, which is that Lucas can only survive on the components of the power rock. In other words, in order to activate this war weapon, it is necessary to target the World Government - to seize the power rock veins that it monopolizes!

To achieve this step is almost as difficult as ascending to heaven. Even the forces at the level of the Four Emperors cannot be sure of success. For Teach, the current Lucas can be said to be tasteless to eat and a pity to discard. He is just a burden that looks good but is useless.

However, the above method is of course the conventional and righteous way, and pirates have always put efficiency first. As for the process and what kind of changes will occur in the middle, that is not within Teach's consideration...

----------

The battle on Pagani Island came to an end, and the Beasts Pirates won a great victory in the war with the Pirate Alliance with an unexpected outcome - several pirates led by Lorelai temporarily turned against them, and the high-spirited Explosion Monarch Lucas eventually died at the bottom of the sea.

This battle not only completely established the dominant position of the Beasts Pirates, but also caused the small and medium-sized forces in the New World who were ready to make a move to give up the idea of ​​becoming the king, and instead look for trusted backers for support - Beasts, Bankoku, and Whitebeard, the three top forces have already dominated the New World, presenting a three-legged posture.

And as Red-Haired Shanks follows in the footsteps of Shiro Yakumo into the New World, the formation of the Four Emperors, an important pole in the ocean, is already in the near future.

At the same time, due to the early entry of Marshall D. Teach, the undercurrent of the New World will quietly change, and quietly develop into a giant monster that devours everything in an unknown corner, establishing a pirate empire belonging to Blackbeard...

Of course, these things are not at the top of Yakumo Bai's mind for the time being, because with Lorelai's confession, he has arrived in an unfamiliar sea area in the New World.

Here, he will obtain one of the few ways to prolong his life - pure gold! Of course, the most important thing is that if possible, Yakumo Bai will try his best to find out the forging method of pure gold and the principle behind it!

Like Teach, Yakumo Bai also follows the same truth - that is, the only thing that is eternal is loyalty to one's own ambition!

To some extent, a long, even eternal life is the unchanging eternal desire of Yakumo Shiro and every living being, and it is also the unchanging ambition of everyone to move towards a higher level!
