Saying that, black smoke suddenly emerged from Blackbeard's body. Then, they saw Blackbeard raise his right hand, his right hand completely turning black, and pressed it on the ground. In an instant, a large amount of darkness spread out from his hand, covering a very large area around him.
"Black Hole!"
With a low shout, Blackbeard's whole body shook with black smoke. The darkness emerging from the ground actually made the covered area slowly sink.
"Zehahaha, Pops, do you see that? This is the Devil Fruit ability that I was willing to kill Thatch and betray the Whitebeard Pirates to obtain, the strongest Devil Fruit, Yami Yami no Mi. You should taste its power."
Akira was carried by Marco and flew to the pirate crowd. At this time, a large group of pirates were gathered together, looking at Whitebeard and Blackbeard. Although Akira was unwilling, he had no way to resist Marco at this time.
However, when he saw Blackbeard preparing to take action, he immediately said to Marco, "Marco, tell Pops to be careful of Teach's Yami Yami no Mi ability. The Yami Yami no Mi can nullify Devil Fruit abilities. Tell Pops not to touch Teach's hand!"
Marco, hearing Akira's urgent tone, didn't hesitate at all, and shouted loudly, "Pops, be careful of that Teach's Devil Fruit ability. His Devil Fruit ability can nullify the abilities of ability users. Don't touch his hand."
Blackbeard laughed loudly, "Zehahaha, it seems that that kid Akira already knows my Devil Fruit ability. But so what? Pops, although I once sincerely admired you, and worshiped you, that's all in the past. You're old now, so old that you even need to rely on the power of others to save your crew members. Pops, your era has passed. The future will be my era."
Blackbeard had no reason not to be excited, because he could only look up to Whitebeard before. But now, Whitebeard had become his prey in his eyes. As long as he killed Whitebeard, he would be able to achieve his dream at the fastest speed.
"That bastard Teach!"
Hearing Blackbeard spout nonsense in front of Whitebeard, all the pirates who heard it shouted angrily.
However, Whitebeard wasn't angered by Blackbeard's words at all. Having lived to his current level, he had already seen through everything. How could he be angered by Blackbeard's deliberate words?
"Marco, cover me. I need to heal!"
Seeing Whitebeard and Blackbeard about to take action, an anxious look appeared on Akira's face. He instructed Marco, and then pulled out the Death God Blade with difficulty, and said in a low voice, "Minazuki!"
Instantly, the Zanpakuto Minazuki turned into a one-eyed demon fish monster, and then opened its mouth, swallowing Akira.
Marco ordered the surrounding pirates, "Everyone, cover around Akira. Absolutely don't let Akira be disturbed in any way. Even if you have to give your lives, don't let Akira be harmed."
Marco understood the situation at this time very well. Now the Whitebeard Pirates had fallen into a desperate situation. He had no ability to turn the tide by himself. Now the Whitebeard Pirates' expectations could only be placed on Akira. That's why he had said these words.
Hearing Marco's words, the surrounding pirates all gathered next to Minazuki, looking like they were determined to protect it to the death.
While Akira was healing, Whitebeard had already launched a showdown with Blackbeard. They saw Whitebeard rush in front of Blackbeard, and punched him, with white transparent energy appearing on his fist.
Blackbeard laughed loudly, "Useless, Pops. You should listen to that kid Akira's words."
Saying that, they saw Blackbeard's right hand turning black, and then meeting Whitebeard's fist, shouting, "Dark Water!"
Whitebeard's fist and Blackbeard's right hand made contact. They saw that the fist that was enough to cause extremely strong tremors actually didn't cause any tremors at all. It was completely nullified by Blackbeard's right hand.
Blackbeard laughed triumphantly, "Did you see that, Pops? This is my Devil Fruit ability, and it's also the strongest ability. Your ability is completely useless in front of me."
Saying that, Blackbeard punched Whitebeard, actually hitting Whitebeard head-on. This made many people present reveal looks of shock. Not only the pirates, but even the Navy soldiers were very shocked.
Sengoku hadn't let the Navy soldiers attack during Whitebeard and Blackbeard's battle, because these two were enemies to the Navy. Letting them kill each other was beneficial to the Navy. No matter who won, the final result was acceptable.
But even so, Sengoku and the others were very surprised to see Blackbeard actually facing Whitebeard head-on. Especially Blackbeard's ability, which made them even more surprised. They were only discovering now that they had underestimated Blackbeard too much before.
After Blackbeard hit Whitebeard with a blow, he still wanted to continue attacking. But Whitebeard's reaction was also quick. He blocked with a backhand when Blackbeard attacked, and then punched out again, still using the Gura Gura no Mi ability.
"Dark Water!"
Whitebeard's attack was still blocked by Blackbeard. Blackbeard laughed triumphantly, "Pops, why can't you accept reality? In front of me, you can't cause tremors anymore. You're still coming!"
Compared to the Whitebeard who was already on his last breath when he fought Blackbeard in the original story, Whitebeard at this time hadn't reached that level yet. He still had strength left. So, even if he couldn't cause tremors, he could still block Blackbeard's attack. However, judging from the battle situation, he was still at a disadvantage.
And Whitebeard at this time was thinking about methods in his heart. It wasn't that he wasn't listening to advice. He naturally believed Akira's words. However, having not come into contact with the Yami Yami no Mi before, he also needed to familiarize himself through battle, and find a flaw. That's why he was fighting using his abilities as before.
After fighting a few moves, he had already understood Blackbeard's ability, and had also thought of a way to deal with it. So, he deliberately bought a flaw, letting Blackbeard hit him. And Blackbeard was in the midst of his triumph, so he didn't know Whitebeard's thoughts at all.
They saw Whitebeard suddenly throw the great naginata in his hand into the air, fighting Blackbeard with his bare hands, and being forced to be relatively embarrassed. The more it was like this, the more excited Blackbeard became. To him, the feeling that defeating Whitebeard brought him was unprecedentedly pleasant. So, he couldn't wait to have more time to enjoy this feeling, naturally not being in a hurry to end the battle.
What Whitebeard wanted was Blackbeard's kind of mentality. At the moment when the great naginata fell, he suddenly grabbed it. Under Blackbeard's horrified gaze, he slashed down with a sword, directly hitting Blackbeard's body, making Blackbeard let out a miserable scream.
"Ah!"
Blackbeard rolled miserably on the ground. Whitebeard had condensed all his strength into the attack, which was originally very terrifying. Plus, the Yami Yami no Mi endured double the pain to nullify the damage. Even he had difficulty enduring this kind of pain. His whole person curled up together, constantly rolling on the ground, his mouth even wailing non-stop.
Whitebeard didn't care about Blackbeard's screams. Seizing this opportunity, he pressed down on both of Blackbeard's hands. He already knew that if Blackbeard wanted to nullify his abilities, he had to use both hands to make contact. So, he restrained Blackbeard's hands, and Blackbeard couldn't nullify his tremor power.
After Whitebeard pressed down on Blackbeard, he stood on his body, and said coldly, "Conceit, recklessness, these are your weaknesses!"
Blackbeard, who was being pressed down by Whitebeard, was looking at Whitebeard with a face full of horror. Especially Whitebeard's right hand had already restrained his head, and tremor power energy had appeared. This made him even more terrified in his heart.
The horrified Blackbeard shouted, "Stop, Pops, stop! I'm your son, I'm your son! Are you really going to kill me? Spare me, Pops..."
Facing Blackbeard's begging for mercy, Whitebeard didn't have any change. He just said coldly, "I said, only you are unworthy of being my son, Teach!"
Saying that, the tremor power of the right hand pressing down on Blackbeard erupted. The terrifying power directly hit Blackbeard's head, and caused a huge tremor, the entire ground shaking along with it, setting off a huge smoke.
This scene made all the pirates on the Whitebeard Pirates' side let out excited shouts.
"That's great, Pops, you're really too strong!"
However, the cheers didn't last too long, because when the smoke disappeared, they saw that Blackbeard hadn't been killed by Whitebeard with one blow. Instead, he was struggling to stand up.
"Uh, uh, ah..."
Blackbeard tried a few times, wanting to stand up, but he didn't stand up in the end. He raised his head, looking at Whitebeard with terrified eyes, horrified, "How is that possible? You're already injured to this extent. How could you still have this kind of power?"
Whitebeard said slowly, "Even if I'm injured to this extent, I can still kill you!"
