Next, all he had to do was go to Sachi's room to take the Dark Fruit, and then escape the Moby Dick in a small boat under the cover of night.
Even Old Man Whitebeard couldn't easily find his trace on the vast ocean.
Even if Whitebeard discovers his whereabouts one day, he will have already secretly developed and mastered the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit!
Thinking of this, he suddenly laughed, his hairy chest and abdomen heaving violently as he suppressed his laughter.
"The fruit has chosen me!!"
Unfortunately, it was his friend Sachi who found the fruit, forcing him to make such a dark decision in order to obtain it.
He even turned against his father and companions with whom he had been together for decades!
From another perspective, isn't this also a case of secretly choosing him?
He slowly extended his right hand; Sachi's blood was still warm, clinging to the back of his dark hand and arm.
In the dim light of the kitchen, the right hand, stained with his companion's blood, looked particularly terrifying.
Teach walked to the table where Sachi was busy, roughly grabbed a handful of cherries prepared as ingredients with his blood-red right hand, and stuffed them into his mouth without caring that they were stained with blood.
He chewed it up, praising it in a low, indistinct voice: "It's really sweet, Captain Sachi!"
Just like he always praised the cherry pie that Sachi baked himself.
……
"Wow, this ship is huge!"
Sachi, who should have been dead, was wandering around the cabins of the Moby Dick, his lips twitching as he looked at the countless identical doors.
This "Sachi" is of course not Sachi himself, but rather Shiranui Sho disguised as him using a transformation technique.
He had observed Sachi and Teach when they passed by, and it seemed that Sachi did not carry the Dark Fruit with him.
Then it's no surprise that he kept this "treasure of the sea" in his room.
He transformed into Sachi's appearance for ease of movement, but the problem was that he had no idea where Sachi's room was.
It was late at night, and apart from the crew on the lookout tower on the distant mast, the deck was practically empty.
Even if he were to encounter a crew member with the white beard now, he wouldn't just grab anyone and ask Sachi where he lived.
First of all, asking someone where "he" lives is suspicious; even a fool would know that this "Sachi" has a problem.
Secondly, this world possesses a power called Observation Haki.
In Shiranui Sho's conjecture, the power of Observation Haki has a similar effect to the sensory ability of a sensory ninja, and can see through the disguise of transformation techniques!
The reason why he turned into a barrel without being noticed by Teach and Sachi who were passing by is quite simple.
Just as sensory ninjas don't perceive things all the time, people with Observation Haki don't always keep their Haki active.
However, if you slip up during a face-to-face conversation, the other person might suspiciously scan you with their Observation Haki...
"Observation Haki, that's an enviable ability. I just don't know if I, born in the ninja world, have any chance of learning it."
Shiranui Sho stroked her chin with one hand, mimicking Sachi's pose, while deep in thought.
Now that things have reached a stalemate, he can only find a place nearby to hide temporarily.
He didn't know where Sachi lived, but Teach definitely did.
Teach should have already had a heart-to-heart talk with Satch.
The next step, of course, was to sneak into Sachi's room and take the fruit he had been longing for.
In other words, as long as you keep watch near the cabins where the crew lives, you are bound to see Teach returning.
The only regret is that Shiranui Sho's initial plan to sneak away with the Dark Fruit was thwarted, and she still had to face Teach, whose strength was unknown.
The unknown and powerful enemy did not frighten him; instead, it made the corners of his mouth curl up slightly.
The blood that had gradually cooled after retreating from the battlefield of the Second Shinobi World War was beginning to boil again.
Wearing the appearance of Sachi, Shiranui Sho chose the spot with the widest view and hid in the darkness.
Not long after.
Accompanied by a series of furtive, deliberately soft footsteps, a bulky figure entered Shiranui Sou's line of sight.
Teach's eyes, which were suppressing their excitement, did not dart around, but were fixed on the door of Sachi's room.
At this moment, he could be said to be racing against death.
If someone on the Moby Dick happens to sweep across the area with Observation Haki at that moment, their evil deeds will instantly ignite the entire Whitebeard Pirates.
Even without his father's intervention, the squad leaders working together could easily take him down.
So we have to hurry!
They stole the Dark Fruit and then left in a small boat!
"Who's there!"
His footsteps stopped in front of Sachi's door, and just as he was about to push the door open and go in, he suddenly sensed something was wrong. His sinister gaze instantly locked onto a corner not far away, hidden in shadow.
A hint of murderous intent brewed in his eyes.
Whoever discovers this will die!
However, the figure hidden in the shadows took a step out and revealed its true form in the next second.
Upon seeing it clearly, Teach, who was filled with murderous intent, stood frozen in place as if struck by lightning, a few drops of cold sweat seeping from his dark forehead.
He stood there for a long time before finally managing to squeeze out a sentence.
"Captain Sachi, you're not dead!"
He subconsciously rubbed his right hand fingers, which were still bleeding, trying his best to calm his surging emotions, but he still couldn't hide the trembling in his voice, and his mind was almost blank.
Chapter 14 Seeing Through It! The Terrifying Teach!
"Captain Sachi, you're not dead!"
Seeing the living figure appear right in front of him, Teach was like he had seen a ghost. His back was instantly soaked with sweat, even though he had just made the killing without blinking.
He forced a stiff smile, seemingly trying to revert to his usual naive and unambitious demeanor.
But the thought that the person in front of him was probably already a corpse after he had "pulled out his heart and lungs" made his fierce and menacing aura hard to conceal.
Whitebeard, an ordinary and unremarkable second team member, and his son, Teach, are both mediocre and unremarkable.
Two completely different roles are misplaced in Teach at this very moment.
"Teach, what are you panicking about!"
Shiranui Sho grinned and strode towards Teach's position.
He had only glanced at Sachi as he passed by, quickly noting down some of his key features.
Therefore, although the transformation technique imitates Saki in general, it does not stand up to scrutiny in some details.
However, under the cover of night, Teach's eyes were more drawn to the similarities than to these unusual, minute details.
Furthermore, the more composed and at ease Shiranui Sho appeared, the more flustered Teach became.
"The Imitation Fruit? No, no one on the ship has that fruit ability!"
Could it be that Marco saved Sachi after I left? But I clearly pierced his heart; even the flames of the phoenix couldn't bring Sachi back to life!
Could it really be a ghost?
With his mind racing, Teach's chest heaved as he stared intently at the approaching "Captain Sachi," instinctively backing away as the eerie legends circulating on the high seas surfaced in his mind.
Seeing the panicked Teach, Shiranui Sho's smile widened even further.
We haven't exchanged blows yet, so we don't know what level Blackbeard's strength is at right now.
But in this initial psychological battle, he undoubtedly gained the upper hand!
He possesses Observation Haki; he's never eaten pork, but he's seen pigs run.
Indeed, Observation Haki allows one to perceive movements in the field of vision, predict the trajectory of attacks, sense the strength of enemies, and even, at its extreme, briefly foresee the future.
However, it also has certain limitations. It requires calmness and focus when using it, and the user will lose perception when emotionally agitated.
So, is Blackbeard Teach emotionally agitated right now?
The hidden fruits within easy reach, the betrayal of his father and comrades after many years, and now, Captain Sachi, who has "come back to life"...
I doubt he'll ever be this emotional again in his life!
Therefore, Teach was unable to detect the flaw that could have been discovered with a single sweep of Observation Haki.
As the dark-skinned, bloated man drew closer, Shiranui Sho's gaze sharpened.
He certainly didn't think that the ambitious, audacious black-bearded man would actually be so intimidated as to be completely unresponsive.
This appearance of Sachi might shock and frighten him, but it would never make him give up his ambition and dreams.
Human dreams never end!
The fact that Teach could say these words proves that he is not the kind of person who would do nothing when he feels he is in a desperate situation.
Therefore, Shiranui Xiao also became extremely vigilant.
He wanted to further disturb the other person's mind.
"Teach! Why did you kill me?!" he hissed angrily and sternly.
Teach didn't want to disturb the others on the ship, especially the burly and imposing man, and neither did Shiranui Sou.
"Captain Sachi! It was me... I was manipulated by someone else's Devil Fruit! Yes! That's it! I don't know what happened!"
Teach's bulky body suddenly knelt down, hastily making up an excuse to distort the truth and beg "Captain Sachi" for forgiveness.
But his eyes, hidden in the darkness, were fixed on "Sachi," and his rough hands, supporting him on the ground, trembled slightly.
Just as he expected!
Even if this excuse doesn't hold up to scrutiny, the years of camaraderie would still make Captain Sachi subconsciously reconsider.
That fraction of a second of distraction was his chance!
The next second, the bloated body suddenly sprang up!
"For my ambition and dream! Even if it's the real Captain Sachi, I'll die again!!"
Teach's face was ferocious and his aura was murderous. He suddenly exerted force with his kneeling legs, and his bloated body seemed to transform into a ferocious cheetah as he pounced forward.
The right hand, now dried from Sachi's blood, took on a claw-like shape and once again aimed at "Sachi's" heart.
Open your heart and soul; if once isn't enough, then twice!
"really……"
Having anticipated this, Shiranui Xiao stepped forward and instantly retreated several meters, barely dodging the attack aimed at her heart.
However, the gusts of air generated by the claw strike still stung the exposed skin on Shiranui Sou's face and neck!
"..."
His eyes narrowed slightly, and his wariness of Teach rose to a new level.
The explosive power Teach displayed in that instant was enough to threaten his life!
Sure enough, Teach, who had waited for a Devil Fruit for many years to realize his ambitions, could not possibly have neglected his training during that long wait.
His lack of ambition and leisurely lifestyle were just a facade.
If he had really been a failure at Whitebeard's Sea of Gold, how could he have become one of the Four Emperors and ruled the seas just a few years after taking the Dark-Dark Fruit?
Without a certain level of strength, does that mean any weakling who eats the Dark Fruit can become an emperor?
Captain Sachi dodged the heart-piercing blow, but Teach just stood there stunned for a moment. His large, toothless mouth slowly opened, and a gloomy, suppressed laugh squeezed out from his throat.
“俟 �
He was smiling, but there was a sinister glint in Teach's eyes.
Relief, relaxation, and anger at being tricked—these complex emotions ultimately coalesced into overwhelming murderous intent.
Having spent so much time in a shopping mall, how could he not recognize Captain Sachi's immediate reaction when faced with an attack!
An inexplicable aura emanated from his brain and spread forward. After his emotions calmed down, his Observation Haki was once again under his complete control!
