"What a terrifying ability," Yixiao sighed beside him. When Blackbeard's ability was used, he felt a sense of depression. This Devil Fruit was too powerful.
"As expected of Blackbeard, he has made such progress in such a short period of time."
Levi was also watching this scene among the memory bugs. The current Blackbeard was three points stronger when he fought with River Levi. It had only been less than half a year, and he was worthy of being a candidate for the future Four Emperors.
"Ace, take a good look!"
Blackbeard let out a loud roar, opened his right hand, and an invisible black Uzumaki rotated in the palm of his hand. Blackbeard's palm pressed down towards the ground shrouded in darkness.
"The secret path!"
The dark ground that was originally as calm as water suddenly began to emit black ripples. The ripples were like water, and they continued to spread outward. Even Ace felt waves of suction.
Ace looked at everything in front of him in shock. As the darkness fluctuated, the ground of the entire town gradually began to sink. It was as if the darkness transformed by Blackbeard was a bottomless abyss. The houses in the entire town were silently swallowed without interest.
The surroundings suddenly became dark. Not only the town, but also the light was swallowed by Blackbeard. The darkness transformed by Blackbeard was like a black hole, and even the light in front of him was swallowed by it.
After the pointed roof of the tallest house sank into darkness, the entire earth became extremely flat, as if everything had been swallowed up.
"Now is the time to show off the power of the Dark Fruit, Ace!"
A column of black smoke rose behind Blackbeard, and the ruins of the town fell towards Ace like raindrops. In just a short moment, the destructive power of the Dark Fruit was fully demonstrated.
At this moment, faint light groups appeared in the surrounding space. Blackbeard stared blankly at the firefly-like light groups in front of him. These light groups lit up the originally dark space, and the entire space was illuminated again. Bright.
"It's burning, it's burning me to death."
Ace roared and wanted to continue fighting, but the scars on his body were so severe that he couldn't get up at all.
A fierce physical battle began. With one hand held together, they started fighting at such a close distance.
After Blackbeard finished speaking, he raised his hand. Blackbeard's entire palm was wrapped in black smoke, and then his hand exuded a tyrannical aura.
The fire fist in Ace's hand hit Blackbeard hard. Blackbeard was unprepared and received the blow. Suddenly, his whole body was covered with fire. His body was knocked away, and Ace was briefly freed from the crisis.
As Lafitte put seastone handcuffs on his hands, everything became a foregone conclusion.
Blackbeard got up from the ground again. Ace's punch was so heavy that he felt severe pain now. He originally thought that taking down Ace was easy, but he didn't expect that Ace's Mera-mera Fruit was also developed so powerfully.
After receiving this punch, Ace felt as if his internal organs had been hit by Sea Kings. He spat out blood when he opened his mouth, and his whole body was severely injured.
"You are really difficult to deal with, Ace!"
"My Dark Fruit can swallow everything, whether it's bullets, knives, or guns, my body can absorb it all, and the price I pay is only twice the pain in my body.
After waiting for Ace's figure to appear in front of Blackbeard, Blackbeard laughed wildly and grabbed Ace's shoulder.
Blackbeard has been on Whitebeard's ship for more than twenty years. Although he is not an esper, his physical skills are extremely powerful, even far superior to some of the captains, otherwise he would not be able to leave scars on the red-haired eyes.
The raging flames even covered Blackbeard, and the terrifying high temperature instantly surrounded Blackbeard. Blackbeard felt like he had entered an iron-making furnace.
"Great Flame Ring: Emperor Yan!"
Ace's hands slammed together, and small light groups floating around began to explode one after another. These light groups looked small, but when they exploded, they looked like cannonballs exploding.
"Damn it, I actually lost to Teach." Ace lay on the ground covered in scars. His body was covered with scars, and there were countless shocking blue and purple marks.
"Sacred Fire Shiranui!"
The roar sounded around Blackbeard.
"Your physical skills are a bit weak, Captain Ace!" As Blackbeard's palm grabbed Ace's wrist, Ace was shocked to find that his Devil Fruit ability seemed to have disappeared.
Blackbeard laughed, all the darkness in his body surged out, and then he laughed maniacally and approached Ace.
Blackbeard's whole body was surrounded by flames, and then a burst of black smoke covered Blackbeard's body, and Ace's flames were extinguished.
Ace let out a low growl, and then released the most powerful fire fist in his hand. He had a hunch in his heart that if Blackbeard's hand caught him, he would be in big trouble.
"Firefly·Fire Bodhidharma."
"Captain Ace, your strength is nothing more than this!" Blackbeard's figure appeared next to Ace, and Blackbeard's fist hit Ace's stomach hard.
Ace's expression changed drastically. He didn't dare to reserve his strength anymore and used his strongest attack directly on Blackbeard.
A huge fireball like the sun appeared from Ace's hand, and with a roar, the fireball in his hand was thrown towards Blackbeard.
As a result, such a magical scene appeared on Panama Island. The entire island was divided into two halves. One half was raging flames, the other was usually deep darkness. As the two wrestled, the entire island was also blown to pieces.
When Blackbeard's palm faced Ace, Ace felt a strong gravitational force pulling him closer to Blackbeard. Ace's body was out of control, and he was getting closer and closer to Blackbeard's body.
"It's useless, just be swallowed up by the darkness!"
"Try my strongest move, destroy!"
Now Blackbeard's face is full of solemnity. He is no longer as frivolous as before. He knows that if he does not treat this battle carefully, he will risk losing. He has already suffered a heavy defeat at the hands of Levi. He cannot afford to fail again in the hands of a junior, otherwise, how else will he rule the New World?
"It seems that your darkness can't swallow my fire, Blackbeard." Ace raised his hands, and he continued to release small balls of light in his palms.
The black smoke gathered in Blackbeard's hand, and then he, like Ace, hit Ace with the black smoke in his hand.
