I'm in One Piece, and I'm Luffy's childhood friend.

This is too simplistic.

However, Bai Yun's ability to replicate is limited in that one person can only replicate one ability.

Moreover, different people cannot use the same ability simultaneously, even if it is replicated.

Simply put, Bai Yun replicates the different Devil Fruit abilities of the two individuals, but cannot use both Devil Fruit abilities simultaneously. When switching between the two abilities, the currently used ability must be discarded, which means replicating the ability again.

Therefore, bracelets with replica capabilities perfectly solve this problem.

However, the advantage of the replication ability is that it can store the replicated abilities and stack different power systems at will.

Therefore, Bai Yun's current abilities are:

(Moonlight has increased the replica's accuracy to 80%)

Garp's physique is about 80% of what it used to be.

Ryuichiro's Devil Fruit ability.

Hawkeye's swordsmanship is 80% complete.

This seems invincible and overpowered, but it's still only 80% likely. If Bai Yun uses his current strength to fight Garp, he will definitely lose in the end.

Why do I say "definitely"?

If Garp can stall until daytime, then Bai Yun will be like a fish on a chopping board.

Moreover, if Bai Yun activates this state during the day, it can only be maintained for half an hour.

How could a battle at the level of power of Garp, Roger, and Whitebeard possibly be decided in one night?

Therefore, both Beckman and Hawkeye have reminded Bai Yun that what is always his own is the best.

........

"I kept all of these for you."

"I absolutely love you."

Bai Yun's sudden "confession" focuses on the word "death".

Then he turned around and slashed at Burgess.

"Dark water!!"

Blackbeard immediately made his move; otherwise, Burgess would have been sliced ​​in half vertically.

Blackbeard was enveloped in black smoke as he extended his right hand. His entire right hand turned black, and a small black hole formed in the palm, unleashing tremendous gravitational force.

Bai Yun was in a twisting, downward-slashing posture when suddenly, as if pulled away by an invisible giant hand, his entire body floated into the air.

Bai Yun forced himself to straighten in mid-air, but Blackbeard's hand was already right in front of him.

"boom!"

Blackbeard smiled. He relied on and trusted the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit; otherwise, he wouldn't have remained hidden for so many years for this fruit.

But the smile suddenly froze on her face, and her hand touched not Bai Yun's chest, but the blade of the long knife in Bai Yun's hand.

Blackbeard's ability to disable a Devil Fruit user's power by touching them is actually quite easy to deal with; all you have to do is prevent him from touching them.

Just like how Old Sha's right hand can suck a person dry, then you shouldn't let his right hand touch you.

Why did you stop laughing?

Bai Yun mocked, then swung his knife upwards with his right hand.

The blade shrank in Blackbeard's eyes. At the critical moment, Doc Q pulled Blackbeard back by the back of his collar, thus avoiding Whitebeard's attack.

When Bai Yun's first move failed, he twisted his arm, turned the blade towards Blackbeard, and swung it down fiercely!

Chapter 221 Changing Destiny

That night, Luffy and his crew headed to Skypiea, following the trajectory and arrangement of fate.

Bai Yun's decision to stay was a challenge to fate, a way to change his destiny.

No matter what, he absolutely will not let Ace die!!!

This is what I should do as a brother for so many years.

........

"Bai Yun will always find a way, hehe."

Luffy unconditionally trusts Bai Yun's reply, just like when they were kids, Bai Yun would appear whenever he needed him.

Kulikate remained silent about their trust in their companion, while also becoming curious about what kind of person Bai Yun really was.

"Oh, don't worry about Bai Yun."

"He's only slightly weaker than my great Captain Usopp! You can rest assured about his strength."

"Let's look at this instead, Luffy!!"

Usopp stepped aside to show Luffy the repaired Going Merry behind him.

"This is the Going Merry's flight mode!!"

The Going Merry's "ram's head" was modified with rooster elements and a pair of wings to withstand the explosive force of the surging ocean currents.

Wow!! That's amazing!

When Luffy saw it, his eyes lit up; he just loves weird and unusual things.

"Will we be able to spread our wings and fly soon?"

Luffy asked excitedly.

Usopp was also excited, "Of course!"

Nami remained calm, saying, "The more I look at it, the more uneasy I feel."

Zoro agreed, "That's true, it's better to make it into a pigeon, pigeons can fly better than chickens."

For some reason, it was kind of funny that Zoro said it with such a serious face.

Nami found it unfunny and yelled angrily, "Who's saying that! Idiot!!"

Nami is starting to feel mentally exhausted. Since joining the crew, she has never felt mentally at ease. Now that Bai Yun is not around, she is even more exhausted. Although, even if Bai Yun were here, there is a fifty percent chance that he would go crazy with Luffy and the others.

.........

Back in Mogu Town, today was another fateful day for its residents.

Because, maybe they'll have to move.

Bai Yun used a trick to his advantage, getting sucked into Blackbeard's dark water. He then used the blade of his sword to block Blackbeard's hand, thus disabling Blackbeard's ability to disable Devil Fruit users.

Then, he slashed at Blackbeard from below, but Blackbeard dodged the attack after being pulled away by Poison Q.

When Bai Yun's first move failed, he twisted his wrist, aimed the blade at Blackbeard, and slashed down fiercely.

Blackbeard immediately pushed Doc Q aside, and the two separated. A huge green slash passed between them. Although they dodged it, the passing blade energy still cut their clothes, leaving several small wounds.

The slash disappeared into the distance, leaving behind a huge chasm that stretched as far as the eye could see. It was unclear whether it had reached the edge of Demon Valley Town.

It was still night, and Luffy was heading back, where Zoro and the others were waiting for him.

The moment the slash appeared, Luffy stopped and turned to look.

Zoro, standing at the entrance to Kurikate's house, also sensed this incredibly powerful sword intent.

He knew, of course, that this was Hawkeye's sword intent, and he would probably never forget it for the rest of his life.

He also understood that while it was possible that Hawkeye had acquired this sword intent, it was unlikely, while it was more likely that Bai Yun had replicated Hawkeye's sword intent.

Such sword intent made his palms itch. Knowing it was Bai Yun's doing, he wasn't worried about losing. However, he would definitely find an opportunity to ask Bai Yun about it when he returned.

Luffy was closer and could still see the massive slash. He grinned, revealing a set of white teeth, and said, "Hehe, as expected of Bai Yun." Then he turned around and continued his journey back.

........

Looking at the huge chasm beneath his feet, Blackbeard couldn't understand why Bai Yun, with his strength, was hiding in the Straw Hat Pirates. It would be understandable if he were hiding in a famous pirate crew like him, but the Straw Hat Pirates weren't exactly unknown at this point.

Furthermore, why such hostility towards him, Ace?

Blackbeard was about to utter a few words when Bai Yun, ignoring him, stepped forward, shattering the ground, and charged forward again. But his target wasn't Blackbeard; it was Oka!

Oka realized that Bai Yun was attacking him.

He immediately took a step to use the momentum to retreat, but as soon as he stepped back, a gust of wind behind him transformed into an invisible hand and pushed him back.

Oka was shocked. Wasn't this just handing himself a death sentence? Without thinking, he opened fire.

Bai Yun's eyes narrowed, and he swung his blade, sparks flying, slicing the bullet in two.

Bai Yun was about to swing his knife when a suction force came. Pulled by his back, Bai Yun was pulled backward, his legs stretched forward, and he used the momentum to compress the wind ball under his feet. In the instant he was pulled away, he kicked Oka in the chest.

The wind pressure ball exploded on Oka's chest, and the bursting wind caused Oka to spit out a mouthful of blood. He was blasted away and crashed into more than a dozen wooden houses before finally stopping.

With the suction combined with the gust of wind generated by the wind pressure ball, Bai Yun was instantly sucked into Blackbeard's back.

Seeing this, Blackbeard gathered his strength in his left hand behind his back and then punched Bai Yun in the back.

Bai Yun coughed up a mouthful of blood and flew forward. Bages thought, "Strike while the iron is hot."

An elbow strike came crashing down.

Bai Yun slashed directly at Bages. Bages didn't expect Bai Yun to still have the strength to swing his sword. He immediately covered his arms with Armament Haki, but the effect was not good. He was slashed and forced back. After regaining his footing, he saw a bloody wound on his arm.

Bai Yun performed a somersault and landed back on his feet.

Blackbeard looked at his fist in confusion.

Given Bai Yun's strength, how could he achieve such an effect with a single punch? Even though it was a punch delivered after charging up his power.

Bai Yun understood that the moment Blackbeard's right hand touched him, all Devil Fruit abilities became ineffective, including his Replica Fruit. Therefore, Blackbeard's punch hit his original physique. If Blackbeard hadn't concentrated his Armament Haki on his back, Bai Yun would probably have been in great pain from that punch.

Now that he's out of Blackbeard's grasp, his powers have returned, Garp's physique has returned, and his injuries have subsided, but he's already coughed up all the blood.

Bai Yun wiped the blood from his mouth and stared at Blackbeard. At this moment, only Blackbeard was in front of him. Doc Q had probably gone to rescue Oka.

There was also Bages behind him, but Bai Yun never took him seriously.

Chapter 222 Romance

As time passed and dawn slowly approached, Bai Yun grew anxious, and it was the first time he had ever hated sunrise so much.
