At the same time that Drake and Blackbeard had begun a true fierce battle, Stella had forced the other members of the Blackbeard Pirates into a difficult battle.
"Guren Sōten Ryūōen!"
Burgess had been blasted away directly by the exploding flames, and he didn't have the Yami Yami no Mi's ability to absorb damage, and half of his body had transformed into charcoal directly.
A spark had flashed past Stella's temple, and the deformed bullet had flown away.
Van Augur's stability as a sniper had naturally been beyond doubt, but his hands had also trembled a bit after seeing this scene.
Putting aside the protection that the Dragon God's possession had given Stella, her defensive power alone had been enough to make people despair.
In her original world, the most direct effect of magic power, apart from driving all kinds of special abilities, had been to provide defense.
Attacks that hadn't reached the corresponding limit wouldn't have caused any damage to blade wielders, and this limit had depended on the blade wielder's own strength of magic power.
And the girl named Stella Vermillion had possessed the strongest magic power in the records.
What's more, Stella had activated the blade wielder secret technique from the start of the battle. Even after having been attached with Armament Haki, Van Augur's bullets had just not been melted, and had been powerless to pierce through her defense at all.
Laffitte had come before Stella at this time, and the sword cane in his hand had stabbed out, and specks of cold starlight had fallen towards the vital points all over Stella's body.
Stella hadn't cared which one had been a feint and which one had been a real move, and the Hi Ryu Zoku Sword had slashed over directly.
There had indeed been great swordsmen who had reached the realm of making the light seem heavy in this world, but it was a pity that Laffitte wasn't one. So he had only been able to choose to retreat in the face of Stella's slash.
This slash had slashed out a crack that had been dozens of meters long on the messy ground, and what it had also sliced open had been the Blackbeard Pirates' confidence.
Doc Q and Van Augur, these guys who had been talking about fate all day long, had already begun to feel that their fate was about to stop today.
And their captain's situation hadn't been any better than theirs.
The dark domain that Blackbeard had set up hadn't even lasted for a few seconds before being torn to pieces by the flames, and this kind of thing had already happened several times.
In order to express his respect for this villainous character who would ascend to the throne of sea emperor step by step, Drake had activated Dragon King Battle Body.
And Blackbeard, who had abandoned all wishful thinking, had been barely withstanding Drake's frenzied attacks, but you really couldn't say that he had had any power to fight back.
A palm that had been emitting black mist had slammed down, and Blackbeard had directly smashed the entire ground to pieces.
Although the Yami Yami no Mi had had the evaluation of being the most vicious, it hadn't been very strong in terms of direct destructive power. So the most important puzzle piece in Blackbeard's plan had been to obtain Whitebeard's Gura Gura no Mi.
That devil fruit, which had possessed the power to destroy the world, could have made up for the gap that Blackbeard had had in attack power with those terrifying monsters on the sea.
But he could only rely on his own strength right now. Although he had exploded out the power to smash the earth, it had still been far from enough to beat down Drake!
Drake, who had jumped into mid-air, had bent over, blasting a flying kick, blasting it onto Blackbeard's forearm, which he had raised.
Dense cracks had appeared below Blackbeard's feet, but he had still pushed Drake away.
"I know another user of darkness abilities, and you're far worse than him!"
Drake had said this after landing on the ground, and perhaps it had been because he had been planning to use the Gura Gura no Mi as his main method of attack from the start, so Blackbeard hadn't developed many attacking skills for the Yami Yami no Mi.
As darkness ability users, Yami had possessed terrifying moves like Dimension Slash.
But Drake wouldn't feel regretful because he hadn't been able to battle a dual devil fruit ability user, and it would have been better for this kind of scum to die sooner.
Drake had taken a step out, decisively meeting Blackbeard, who had been charging over.
Flames and darkness had each occupied half the space, and the two people who had been wrapped in the two kinds of energy had also blasted out their respective attacks.
"Fire Dragon's Crushing Fist!"
Drake's punch had made Blackbeard spit out a mouthful of blood, and he had also endured the pain, slapping his palm onto Drake's shoulder.
Blackbeard had definitely possessed all of the qualities that an excellent villain had possessed, and he hadn't had any thoughts of giving up even in this unfavorable situation.
The Yami Yami no Mi's ability to absorb damage had been what he had been relying on right now, and what he had been thinking had been to exhaust Drake to death.
Drake had also staggered a step, but he had then swung another punch, colliding with the fist that Blackbeard had been blasting over.
Flames and black mist had made up a two-colored spiral, stirring the sky into a chaotic mess.
In the blink of an eye, the energy spiral had broken, and the two had flown out at the same time.
"Fire Dragon's Wing Attack!"
The flame-made long whips had been swept towards Blackbeard as Drake had controlled them.
"Dark Water!"
Having battled until now, Blackbeard had also been forced to have quite a bit of progress in his ability in order to respond to Drake's attacks.
The flame long whips had twisted after entering the darkness's coverage range, and had then been completely devoured by the darkness.
But after swallowing Drake's attack, the darkness that Blackbeard had set up had also reached its limit, beginning to collapse and dissipate, and Drake had also approached at this time.
"Fire Dragon's Wing Blade!"
Drake's palm blade had left behind a wound that had been deep enough to see the bone on Blackbeard's chest, and the intense pain that had come along with the disappearance of the wound had also made his eyes become completely red, like a demon.
But Blackbeard had forcibly not let out the cries that he had made before, and had instead stretched out his hand, grabbing towards Drake's throat.
Compared to the head, which had had hard bones, it had been easier to cause damage by attacking soft parts like the throat. The ferocity in Blackbeard's personality had brought about this kind of startling calmness.
Drake had done a back bridge, dodging the black marks that Blackbeard had grabbed out, and he had also flipped over, using his hands to support the ground, and his entire body had flown up, dodging the kick that Blackbeard had blasted over.
And just as Drake had landed, something that had been like black mud had spread over.
Drake's left hand had taken the shape of a claw, directly grabbing onto the ground, and fire lines had drilled out from his fingers, directly dividing the darkness that had been extending to before him completely.
The dazzling flames and black mist had blocked their vision, but Blackbeard had sensed the increasingly terrifying feeling of danger that had been transmitted from the other side.
"Fire Dragon's Roar!"
The pillar of fire had directly stirred up the remaining flames and black mist, blasting straight towards Blackbeard.
All of the black mist that had been surging out from Blackbeard's body had blocked before him, and it had actually pushed the pillar of fire back a bit in just a few seconds.
But it had only resisted for a few seconds, and the pillar of fire had crashed through the black mist, devouring Blackbeard.
Even if Blackbeard had become fierce again, he wouldn't have been able to withstand this kind of pain, and even more miserable cries had been transmitted from within the flames.
After a long time, the flames had dissipated, revealing Blackbeard, who had been emitting black smoke. But in just the time it had taken to breathe, the carbonized burns on Blackbeard's body had begun to disappear.
"Zehahaha! This daddy obtained this fruit after betting twenty years of my time, and as long as I have this ability, there's no way that I'll lose!"
A triumphant smile had appeared on Blackbeard's face, trying to strike at Drake's confidence in battling.
Drake had spat out a mouthful of white air, opening his mouth, saying, "It's indeed a troublesome ability, and it can actually completely absorb the damage on your body. But it's not like there's no way to break it.
The first method is to exhaust your stamina, but it would probably take quite a bit of time for a freak like you, who doesn't even need sleep. I don't have that much patience!
Then I can only use the second method, and that's that the ability user dies before the damage can be absorbed, and the absorption ability will be useless!"
Blackbeard's pupils had constricted, saying coldly, "You're underestimating me too much if you think that you can kill me in an instant!"
Although he had said this, Blackbeard didn't think that Drake had been bluffing, and he had already become wary to the utmost.
The flames that had been surging on Drake's body had begun to converge and compress, and they had all concentrated on one of Drake's palms.
That palm had seemed to have not been a flesh and blood body anymore, and had instead transformed into something that had been made up of energy.
"Don't blink, I'm coming!"
Blackbeard had only felt that Drake's voice hadn't even disappeared when he had already arrived before him.
But it hadn't been that he couldn't react for Blackbeard, who had been concentrating with all of his attention, but strangely enough, his body had suddenly stiffened.
"Being stimulated by pain too much can make your nerves numb!"
Drake hadn't been stingy in resolving his confusion before Blackbeard had died, and the numbness of his nerves had made his movements slower by a trace, and it had been that trace that had made him lose the opportunity to protect his life.
"Dragon Slayer Secret Art - Fire Dragon Severing Demon Blade!"
The Dragon Slayer Secret Art that Drake had developed himself had been blasted out, and a gap had been obliquely sliced out from Blackbeard from his shoulder to his lower abdomen, and the corpse, which had transformed into two sections, had fallen onto the ground.
Putting aside whether the others could escape from Stella's hands, Blackbeard had already died, and the Blackbeard Pirates could be considered to have been destroyed because of this.
