A black whirlpool appeared in Blackbeard's hand and swallowed the huge fire fist directly.
This scene made Ace frown. His famous attack was actually swallowed up just like this?
"Zehahaha! Ace, do you see it? This is the power of the Dark Fruit! The most vicious Devil Fruit ability in history!"
"If you look at this town again, it was destroyed by my Dark Fruit ability!"
Blackbeard opened his hands and laughed, as if to show off his glorious achievements. Now the entire Sunset Town has been scraped completely by his blackhole ability, turning it into a barren yellow land.
"Just because of this Devil Fruit ability, you killed Thatch??"
Ace asked angrily. He couldn't understand why the usually honest old crew member would do such a cruel thing.
This is a veteran crew member who has been in the Whitebeard Pirates for more than 20 years after all.
"Ace, you have no idea what this Devil Fruit represents! I stayed in the Whitebeard Pirates for so many years just to wait for this Devil Fruit."
"If it hadn't appeared, I could have stayed on our father's ship for the rest of my life. But when I saw it appearing in the hands of Captain Thatch, I was so disappointed. Why wasn't it me who got the fruit?"
"Of course, I was more excited because this Devil Fruit had finally appeared. So, for that, I would have killed anyone!"
Blackbeard happily shared his joy with Ace and told about his difficulties in these years.
He waited for more than twenty years for a Devil Fruit, suppressed himself for so long, and pretended to be an honest person for so many years.
"Why don't you ask Thatch for it?! With more than 20 years of friendship, wouldn't he have given it to you?"
Ace cursed. In his eyes, shouldn't family be more important than a Devil Fruit?
"Don't take it for granted, Captain Ace! We are pirates!! I just couldn't give him a chance to eat the Dark Fruit, so I had to strike first!"
Blackbeard grinned, on the night of the party, he assassinated Thatch and escaped from the Moby-Dick.
Asking him for the Dark Fruit?
What a waste of time, it was more straightforward to simply grab it, and he no longer wanted to stay in the Whitebeard Pirates, a place full of family love.
He wants to form his own pirate group, and he wants to be the captain!!!
He wants to have the right to show his true self!
The most important thing is that he also wants Whitebeard's Tremor Fruit ability!
If he had asked for the Dark Fruit to stay in the Whitebeard Pirates, he would not be able to get ahead with his qualifications. These captains will not be convinced by him. How many years would he have to wait until Whitebeard dies of old age?.
He has to find a way to get the Tremor Fruit's power quickly.
And he has already seen that his father seems to be intending to train Ace to become the heir of the Whitebeard Pirates. Even Marco, the captain of the first division, does not have this blessing, let alone Teach himself.
"Damn it!! Teach! I must take you back to Pops for trial!!"
Ace gritted his teeth with hatred. Thatch was the captain he had the best relationship with in the Whitebeard Pirates, and he was even more familiar with him than Marco.
"Zehahaha! Ace, he is old and has only a few more years to live. It's time to give up his Yonkō position."
"Ace, you have great potential, come be my deputy captain! Let's become the new Yonkō crew together and conquer the world. Don't you think the Whitebeard Pirates are too boring?"
Blackbeard laughed and extended his right hand to Ace, trying to invite him.
He remembers when Ace was beaten badly by Whitebeard. However, in the end, after being easily beaten, Ace was finally moved by Whitebeard's fatherly love and became another one of his sons.
Blackbeard could clearly feel that the Haki in Ace's body had become weaker and weaker after he boarded the ship.
If Ace, a young and powerful man full of potential, joins his Blackbeard Pirates, he might be able to re-inspire his Conqueror's Haki and become a legendary vice-captain like the Dark King Rayleigh!
Thinking of this, he became even more excited. His ambition was also to be the Pirate King, and to have a vice-captain who had awakened Conqueror's Haki was not too much at all.
"How dare you say that Pops is old! The Whitebeard Pirates don't need you to preach! Bastard!!!"
'Higan!'
Ace heard that Teach not only said that his father was old, but also insulted the Whitebeard Pirates for being boring. This is simply unforgivable!
How can the Moby-Dick be boring when it's full of family affection and bonds?!
"Isn't it boring that dad is holding on to his little bit and still won't admit it? Isn't it boring to hold banquets every day and talk about the family's pirate group?"
"We are pirates! ! This is not a game of house! Dad has no ambition to become the Pirate King!"
"But I won't let my ambitions and dreams end with the Whitebeard Pirates!"
Blackbeard also yelled, before using Kurouzu again, absorbing Ace's attack.
Whitebeard obviously has the most power, but after the death of Pirate King Roger, he just kept looking for his family, and by the way became the leader of the Four Emperors.
He never paid much attention to becoming the Pirate King.
He hated watching Charlotte Linlin and Kaido of the Beasts become Yonkōs one after another, snatching the Road Poneglyphs, each looking for the secret of reaching the final island, Raftel.
"Dad will definitely become the Pirate King!!"
'Hibashira!'
Seeing that his fire fist and bullet moves were ineffective against Teach, Ace angrily used his more powerful moves to defeat the rude Teach.
The endless stream of flames, under the control of his hands, rotated into a huge burning pillar, rushing towards Blackbeard in an instant.
"Dad doesn't want the position! It's up to me to be the Pirate King!"
'Liberation!'
Blackbeard saw Ace's pillar of fire and immediately threw everything that he had swallowed in Sunset Town towards him, including the corpses of many bounty hunters and archers.
Dayi looked at the fight between the two pirates, Fire Fist Ace and Blackbeard Teach, with horror in his eyes.
"Everyone is dead!"
He looked at the corpses in the ruins and said with red eyes. Among them were his like-minded archers, competitive friends, and bounty hunters who interrupted the chat.
The huge pillar of fire collided fiercely with the released ruins. Countless building ruins and corpses burned in the high-temperature flames and turned into ashes.
"No!!"
Dayi knelt on the ground helplessly, completely unable to believe this fact. Within half a day, his hometown and friends had turned into ashes and completely disappeared from this world.
