This is the awakened ability of the String-String Fruit!
As long as you can awaken it, you can turn everything around you into objects you control!
"Wave White Line!"
Donflamingo manipulated countless white threads, sweeping towards the Blackbeard Pirates!
"Dark Path!"
Blackbeard Teach raised his hand and released a giant black hole, swallowing all the white threads around into the black hole. If used properly, the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit can counter any Devil Fruit!
"Kill him!"
Teach grinned and called his subordinates to join the fight!
Donflamingo, this Seven Warlord of the Sea, is not easy to deal with; Blackbeard Teach had no absolute confidence to eliminate this opponent quickly...
In fact...
There's also a risk of things going wrong!
Just as the Blackbeard Pirates swarmed to besiege Donflamingo, a blaze of fire blocked their path, and a young man wearing a hat appeared in front of them with the flames, his fingertips also flickering with a fire.
"Teach."
This young pirate slowly raised his head, revealing a freckled face beneath the brim of his hat, his gaze as angry as the surrounding fire.
"Finally found you..."
"Captain Ace..."
Blackbeard Teach's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly burst into laughter: "Thief hahahaha... Ace, have you decided to abandon that old Whitebeard and join my pirate crew?"
"Stop boasting."
Fire Fist Ace coldly watched him, a blaze emerging from his palm: "On the Moby Dick, killing a crewmate is an unforgivable mistake. I'm here to catch you and take you back to confess to Dad! Teach!"
"Ace..."
Blackbeard Teach sneered, his hand turning into a black mist: "I'm really sorry, I didn't want to kill Saki either... But now, I don't want to go see that old dad who always hangs on an IV either. You're not my opponent anymore!"
"That is..."
Fire Fist Ace's eyes narrowed.
He had never seen such a strange ability before.
"This is the trophy obtained after killing Saki..."
Blackbeard Teach glanced back at the black mist in his hand, casually introducing it to his former comrade: "Dark-Dark Fruit, the most vicious fruit in the world. I've been hiding in the Whitebeard Pirates for over twenty years, and I even thought I'd never get it, I'd prepared to live an ordinary life..."
"But..."
"It appeared."
Blackbeard Teach showed a hint of pride, laughing loudly: "Thief hahahaha... Just when I was about to give up, it appeared! Fate favors me!"
"All for this power?"
Fire Fist Ace clenched his fists, flames spreading from his head, bit by bit, and scorching the ground.
"Just... for this power?"
Blackbeard Teach seemed to hear a joke, his eyes full of disdain and scorn: "What do you mean just for this power? What nonsense are you talking about... Staying by that old Whitebeard for too long has made you all forget that power is the pillar of standing on this sea, power is the path to realize all dreams!"
The pirates of the Whitebeard Pirates...
One by one, they are lost in the illusion of a pirate family, as if Whitebeard, the patriarch, could always protect them like a father...
"Hehehehehe..."
"Fire Fist Ace..."
"Don't underestimate that power..."
Donflamingo watched the black mist in Blackbeard Teach's hand, sneering and warning: "Do we need to join forces? I don't think you're his match..."
"This is the Whitebeard Pirates' matter!"
Fire Fist Ace slightly turned his head, refusing Donflamingo's assistance.
"Then good luck to you..."
Donflamingo didn't linger, leaping and disappearing from the place!
Now...
He couldn't stay any longer!
Because someone inexplicably framed him for killing a Heavenly Celestial Dragon, and the Five Elders might think he murdered the Celestial Dragon, likely losing their trust in him; he must find new reliance...
Anyway...
The Five Elders don't matter anymore.
The Five Elders and the World Government probably won't have time to concern themselves with him.
Donflamingo witnessed the disastrous defeat of the Five Elders; he also saw the reality of three Five Elders being killed, and understood the future direction of this era!
He himself...
Must also hunt the Celestial Dragons!
Only by acquiring enough Heavenly Celestial Dragon Identity Chips can he learn the whereabouts of Sea King Poseidon from the Konoha Pirates and have the chance to continue standing on this sea!
After Donflamingo left, Fire Fist Ace and the Blackbeard Pirates immediately clashed, with black mist spreading instantly and flames surging at once; the scorching blaze and abyss-like black mist quickly mingled and intertwined!
"Have they started fighting?"
A phoenix emitting a faint blue light landed on Sky Island.
As Fire Fist Ace and the Blackbeard Pirates clashed, Marco, who volunteered for the task, finally arrived at Sky Island, having picked up Jinbe, a Seven Warlord of the Sea, on the way because Jinbe always considered himself a subordinate of the Whitebeard Pirates, and Fishman Island had always been under the protection of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Jinbe's arrival...
Was not surprising at all.
After all, Sea King Poseidon is on Fishman Island, and to prevent information about Sea King from leaking and bringing disaster to Fishman Island, Jinbe finally arrived at Sky Island.
