Luffy, how can you become the Pirate King if you don't work hard!

What should we do now?

"Hehehe, Kuzan, you've really messed things up. Well then, that's settled, guys."

His voice lowered, "It's not time for the final battle yet."

Blackbeard is leaving.

If the fighting continues and another general-level fighter is added, they won't be able to handle it.

Moreover, Luffy's condition was clearly not yet pushed to its limit, and Blackbeard had no way of knowing how much energy that white form still had left.

If the fighting continues, the core members of the Blackbeard Pirates will be wiped out here.

Moreover, since the decision has been made to cooperate with the World Government, it is necessary to preserve one's own power.

If all of your subordinates are dead, even if you reach a cooperation agreement with the World Government, you will have no say in the matter.

Those monsters from the world government won't be polite to a lone commander. Without sufficient strength as a backing, cooperation will only turn into one-sided exploitation and oppression.

Luffy and Kuzan naturally wouldn't let the Blackbeard Pirates retreat so easily.

Luffy made the first move.

His figure flashed in place, and in the next instant he appeared in front of Blackbeard, Teach's somewhat unfocused pupils instantly focused.

The figure rushing straight towards them even dispelled the darkness, flying over using only pure physical speed.

Why is this guy's physical skill so terrifying?

The golden lion, floating in the air in the distance and watching this scene, burst into laughter.

Looking at Luffy now, it's like seeing a young Garp.

That fist is a natural manifestation of power reaching a certain extreme.

The ultimate in Armament Haki!

It slammed straight at Blackbeard's face.

He exudes an aura of dominance.

"My men!"

Scattered members of the Blackbeard Pirates were shaken out of the darkness.

"Is this how you treat your partners?"

A surge of Conqueror's Haki erupted from Luffy without reservation, sweeping outwards like a tangible storm.

The Blackbeard Pirates who had just emerged were so overwhelmed by this domineering aura that they foamed at the mouth.

Even core members like Shiryu and Chote felt dizzy, as if a mountain was pressing down on their chests.

Chapter 514 Victory Settlement

"The Dark Age of Blood!"

Seeing Luffy charging straight at him, Blackbeard unleashed a deep darkness that coalesced into a massive shield in front of him, with bloodstains spreading out from within the darkness.

Block them!

Just block it.

The moment the shield was lifted up, a huge crack began to appear in the center.

"Admiral!" Lafayette called out.

That won't stop it.

"drink!"

Luffy roared, pulled back his fist, and began slamming it against the shield. Huge cracks in the air gradually spread outwards.

This level.

If one punch doesn't break it, then punch it a few more times.

Fists rained down on the shield of darkness like a storm, each punch widening the cracks in the shield.

The fist grazed Blackbeard's head and flew straight over him. This punch was meant to slice off half of his head, but although his head was sliced ​​off, his aura did not disappear.

"Ok?"

Luffy's eyes widened as a black hand suddenly slashed out from where Teach had just been, cutting a large gash across Luffy's shoulder, which was covered by the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, and blood flowed freely.

"This time it's the shoulder, next time it'll be the head!"

A light suddenly appeared beneath Blackbeard's feet, clearly indicating his dissatisfaction at not having inflicted greater damage on Luffy earlier.

They'd been playing the victim for so long, all for this crucial strike, but in the end, they hadn't achieved anything.

Visibly, a beam of light appeared beneath Blackbeard's feet, began to spread, and quickly outlined a complex circular pattern.

That was a magic circle.

Luffy's gaze fell on the magic circle. He recognized it; it was exactly the same as the thing that had appeared on the Five Elders and their monsters.

He was all too familiar with the Five Elders' immortality and their ability to teleport at will.

"The power of the Five Elders?" Luffy raised an eyebrow.

"Hahaha, you shouldn't be surprised, right? If it weren't for you being such a monster, I wouldn't have accepted this tattoo."

A familiar tattoo was visible on Blackbeard's arm.

"Have you cooperated with the World Government?" Kuzan's voice rang out coldly.

Seeing that Blackbeard had attracted their attention, Van Augur, who had barely regained some strength, hurriedly began to move the Blackbeard crew's subordinates and officers. It seemed that this was the plan the admiral had mentioned earlier.

If you can't win, retreat!

Anyway, we can come back again.

"Hahaha, I'll be back! Next time we meet, I'll show you what a real monster is!"

After saying those words, Blackbeard was teleported away by the magic circle beneath his feet.

He didn't care if he delayed any longer, otherwise what if Luffy and Kuzan joined forces to stop him?

In the distance, Blackbeard's fleet also began to retreat rapidly.

It is possible to catch up.

With Luffy's current speed and Kuzan's abilities, catching up with that fleet isn't impossible, but Luffy has never been interested in such things.

"Not dead yet?"

Luffy glanced at the distance, where the ground trembled. On the island made up of the shattered remains of Whole Cake Island, a giant hand suddenly stretched out from the ground.

Charlotte Linlin crawled out of the ground covered in wounds, like a demon returned from hell.

Her hair was disheveled and draped over her shoulders, and there were several bleeding wounds on her face.

When the Evil King used the Island-Island Fruit to reunite the shattered Whole Cake Island, he inadvertently helped Big Mom by preventing her from being swallowed by the sea.

Otherwise, with Zeus and Prometheus gone, there really wouldn't have been anyone to save her if she fell into the sea.

Luffy looked at her, his form now completely back to normal. "Shall we continue fighting?"

Who do you think I am?!

Big Mom refused to admit her defeat; the Four Emperors, who had reigned supreme for decades, were actually defeated by a mere upstart.

"mom!"

Big Mom still wanted to fight, but the rational Perospero didn't want to continue. If the fight continued, Big Mom's crew would be wiped out. It was unknown how much strength Luffy had left, but Kuzan hadn't suffered any damage in the previous battles!

"I'm not fighting anymore!"

Perospero shouted, "Straw Hat Boy, we'll grant you whatever you want! I've already given the Poneglyph you requested to your navigator!"

Big Mom was very dissatisfied and turned her gaze to Perospero, "How dare you touch my things?!"

That Poneglyph was something she obtained after going through great hardships; it contained crucial information about the path to Laugh Tale and was a vital asset in her quest to become the Pirate King.

"Mom, you can do whatever you want to me after this is over, but we can't keep fighting now!"

Perospero showed a rare bit of toughness.

Meanwhile, the battle between the other members of the Straw Hat Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates' executives was nearing its end.

The cake boat belonging to Daifuku.

The enormous warship, made of cream and sponge cake, was now riddled with holes, its hull covered in charred marks from flames and huge craters from being kicked.

Sanji and Daifuku are engaged in a fierce battle.

Sanji stood at the bow of the ship, a cigarette dangling from his lips, wisps of smoke rising, and a layer of azure flames wrapped around his right leg.

Demon God's Wind Leg!

Opposite him, Charlotte Daifuku was kneeling on the ground, panting heavily.

"The Demon's Detailed Analysis!"

After eating the Paramecia-type Steam-Steam Fruit, Daifuku rubbed his body, and the Genie was summoned again. Wielding a huge long sword, he swung it and instantly cut everything around him in half.

Ta-da-da,

A smoke ring rose in the air as Sanji dodged the seemingly invisible attack and reappeared in front of Daifuku, kicking him away.

Daifuku hurriedly used his fist, which was wrapped in Armament Haki, to block, but with a hiss, sparks flew everywhere, and his fist turned bright red, almost being roasted.

At that moment, the Smoke Demon appeared behind Sanji and swung his large cleaver down towards Sanji's head. Sanji calmly twisted his body, found an angle below, and kicked the Smoke Demon in the chin. The Smoke Demon disappeared again.

Daifuku seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, but his punch landed on Sanji's body as if he were hitting an iron man.

This guy,

"Is it Vinsmoke family technology?"

Daifuku remembered Sanji's identity.
