54 054 Top Eleven
"Why does it feel like Whitebeard isn't dead yet?..."
The Boxing Champion's expression had completely changed.
"I didn't expect him to be able to utilise the power of the Tremor-tremor Fruit!"
Ghost Sword was also startled by Blackbeard's recent punch.
"No wonder the witch and the old turtle fell into his hands. Now we have to be careful"
Machine King said with a serious tone.
"No matter how powerful he is, he can't stand up to the large number of us"
Ghost Sword said with a more confident tone, then shouted to his younger brothers behind him.
"Don't be scared by Blackbeard; he just gained Whitebeard's fruit ability, not the real Whitebeard! Kill!"
His words reignited the fighting spirit within all the pirates in the Pseudo-Emperor Alliance.
"Exactly! He only has Whitebeard's abilities!"
"Kill! Kill!"
...
11 pirate groups joined forces, deploying over 20 ships to assault Blackbeard's warship.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The deafening sound of gunfire and artillery marked the official beginning of the battle!
"Zeehahahaha! Let's give it our all, we must make a name for ourselves in this battle!"
Blackbeard's eyes gleamed with excitement. He laughed at Shiryu and the others, then transformed into a thunder and flew into the sky!
"Roger that, Captain Blackbeard!"
The Colossal Battleship, Sanjuan Wolf transformed into a big giant, jumping up into the sea like a colossal figure.
With his incredible strength, a brief dip in the seawater won't diminish his strength.
The Devil Fruit user can reduce the effects of seawater through regular exercise, minimizing the vulnerability that sea-stone and seas pose to them.
"He's like a giant battleship!"
"Look at that terrifying physique!"
The nearby pirates couldn't help but exclaim at the sight.
With a mighty swing, San Juan shattered a pirate ship into pieces with a single punch!
"That's a living battleship! Who can withstand a punch like that?"
"Are all the Blackbeard Pirates this powerfull?!"
San Juan's punch sparked a lot of discussions among the watching pirates.
In their eyes, if every pirate in the Blackbeard Crew is as formidable as San Juan, then their group of only 11 members might not be destined for failure.
At this moment, Shiryu, Jesus Burgess, Avalo Pizarro, Vasco Shot, and others charged ahead toward the pseudo-emperor alliance ship
Gion leaped directly into the midst of Ghost Sword's pirate group, taking a bold step forward.
"Gion, do you want to fight the Ghost Sword?"
Shiryu asked in surprise.
"Even though I refrained from intervening in that kind of battle a few days ago, as a member of the Blackbeard Pirates, I won't stand idly by in today's fight"
Gion responded calmly.
"Quite persistent"
Shiryu remarked. Although he felt pity for not being able to face a swordsman, it didn't bother him much. As long as he could kill people, he was satisfied. Shiryu Left a word and turned to engage another pirate group!
Soon, everyone had picked their opponents among the pirate groups.
While these pirate groups varied in strength, even the captain with the lowest bounty had a substantial reward of 300 million!
Doc Q and Van Augur Oka stayed on the warship, one was responsible for treatment and the other was responsible for long-range sniping
"Are they really planning to take on a whole pirate alliance with just the eleven of them?"
Urouge exclaimed in disbelief.
"Is this the confidence of the Blackbeard Pirates' crew?"
Hawkins finally understood the reason behind the outcome of his divination.
Because Blackbeard Pirates simply didn't take the so-called Pseudo-Emperor Alliance seriously at all!
Now that everyone had learned the general strength of the Blackbeard Pirates, their attention returned to Blackbeard.
He was also the protagonist who started this war.
"Did Blackbeard just use a different fruit power?"
"Thunder? Is it a Logia-type Devil Fruit?"
At that moment, Blackbeard hovered in the air, wielding thunder in his hands, which rumbled fiercely.
"Thunder Dragon!"
"Thunder Phoenix!"
Lightning conjured a thunder dragon and phoenix, soaring from his hands!
"Boom!"
"Ah! Why can he still control thunder?!"
The pirates on a ship were charred black by the electric shock.
Blackbeard glanced at the Machine King below and casually said: "Machine King, I doubt you can withstand a single strike from me."
"Arrogant words! "
Machine King's eyes narrowed, and he naturally saw the thunder in Blackbeard's hand. That was exactly what robots like him were afraid of.
"Transform! Bird form!"
The Machine King placed both hands on the ship, and the metal vessel beneath his feet immediately wriggled, seamlessly merging into his body.
With a metallic clang, he transformed into a metal eagle, its wings adorned with barrels and machine guns.
"Da da da da da da!"
A barrage of lasers and cannons streaked towards Blackbeard in a dense formation.
"El Thor!"
Blackbeard shouted coldly, transforming his entire body into thunder
If the Machine King were in a large battlefield, he could likely inflict significant casualties, but to him, these challenges were mere child's play. Lasers and cannonballs were effortlessly dealt with in his hands.
"Oh, a Logia type?!"
The Machine King screamed and swiftly shifted forms once more.
He turned into a ten-meter-tall robot. There was a flame jet behind the robot, allowing him to quickly approach Blackbeard in the air. At the same time, his fists were covered with Armament haki as he punched Blackbeard!
"Are you playing acrobatics with me?!"
Blackbeard observed the opponent's aerial maneuvers and countered with a direct punch!
His punch surged with 1 billion volts lightning!
This is beyond what even Enel can achieve; it's about the fruit being utilized with immense strength. However, Enel raw power alone cannot fully unleash the true potential of the Thunder Fruit!
Blackbeard is different. He pursues destructive power. This punch looks more like divine punishment!
A bolt of thunder and lightning directly pierced through the Mechanical King's body!
Furthermore, because of the lightning's penetrative nature and high temperature, all the parts inside the Mechanical King's body were damaged.
The Thunder Fruit completely countered the power of the Mechanical Fruit!
