Who told him to become the Pirate King!

Chapter 425 Blackbeard Teach, successfully contained!

"Hahaha!"

Storm couldn't help but burst into laughter at the sight of Blackbeard Teach's pained expression.

"Blackbeard Marshall D. Teach, your 'capacity' is nothing more than this!"

"Why are you being so serious?"

Capacity? Seriousness?

Blackbeard Teach was utterly speechless.

The White Dragon Emperor... is indeed exceptionally mad!

"Forget it, you're really not interesting to me right now."

Storm manipulated the clay tentacles to return Rafitra to the back of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

"This cat-and-mouse game needs to end!"

Blackbeard Teach paused, instinctively reaching for his last "chip"—the sand crocodile.

White Dragon Emperor, you bastard, don't you really care about the lives of your "friends"?

But Blackbeard Teach hadn't even had a chance to voice his question.

A terrifying aura suddenly erupted from Storm's body.

With his nine-star Conqueror's Haki unleashed at full power, streaks of black and red electricity danced wildly in the air like demonic serpents from the depths of hell, vying to attack Blackbeard Teach and the Crocodile he held in his hand.

It was just a fleeting glance.

Blackbeard Teach had no time to react before being struck by the dense array of black and red electric arcs.

Boom-1

It was as if a bolt from the blue struck Blackbeard Teach's mind.

Faced with such powerful Conqueror's Haki, his entire brain's thinking speed was severely affected, and he almost fainted.

Not only that.

Blackbeard Teach also felt a heavy, almost tangible pressure on his body.

It was as if an entire mountain was pressing down on his body; his feet were even forced into the ground, causing the earth to crack and shatter. The powerful sense of oppression directly translated into actual destructive force.

The large dark area that Blackbeard Teach had just created using the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit.

Faced with the powerful suppression effect of the nine-star Conqueror's Haki, the dark area rapidly shrank until it completely retracted into Blackbeard Teach's body.

Mental suppression, physical suppression, ability suppression —

Storm merely unleashed a burst of Conqueror's Haki.

Blackbeard Teach was completely unable to resist.

As Storm just said.

At this stage, Blackbeard Teach is so weak that he has no interest in him whatsoever.

Blackbeard Teach felt as if he were trapped in a dark swamp from which he could not escape, with a constant, terrifying pressure coming from all directions, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

This moment.

Blackbeard Teach could no longer control the sand crocodile.

He himself was like a clay Bodhisattva crossing a river—no.

Like a clay bodhisattva trying to cross the sea—it can barely save itself!

"ah-

Blackbeard Teach mustered his strength and roared hysterically, like a mad beast driven to the brink of despair.

And in the next instant.

A formidable aura also erupted from Blackbeard Teach's body, with wisps and strands of black and red electric arcs emanating from him.

"Is this [Conqueror's Haki]?"

Storm raised an eyebrow and immediately recognized the ability that Blackbeard Teach was using.

But if he remembered correctly, Blackbeard Teach had never shown his Conqueror's Haki.

Even during the highest-level Marineford War, Blackbeard Teach never unleashed Conqueror's Haki (Level 1).

But what if Blackbeard Teach didn't have the talent for Conqueror's Haki...?

This is clearly abnormal.

As a pirate emperor, as a "destined villain".

Blackbeard Teach's talent is so exceptional that it is absolutely rare in the ocean!

Even though [Conqueror's Haki] is said to be a "king's talent" that only one in a million people possesses.

But what if even a pirate like Blackbeard Teach doesn't have Conqueror's Haki?

So, all those Conqueror's Haki users in the new world, who are as numerous as carp crossing a river, are undoubtedly a joke!

"So, was Blackbeard Teach forced to awaken his Conqueror's Haki under the suppression of my Conqueror's Haki?"

Storm felt that his guess was probably the actual situation.

Even though Blackbeard Teach unexpectedly awakened [Conqueror's Haki].

Storm showed no sign of worry.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and his nine-star Conqueror's Haki began to coalesce under his control.

In the face of truly top-tier Conqueror's Haki.

Blackbeard Teach's newly awakened Conqueror's Haki was as fragile as paper, instantly suppressed.

destroy.

Streaks of black and red electricity formed an almost impenetrable energy net, which tightly bound Blackbeard Teach within it.

The sand crocodile, which was being held in Blackbeard Teach's hand, was also affected and became a "target" of the "Conqueror's Haki Net".

However, Crocodile, who was in poor condition, had already fainted long before Storm released his Conqueror's Haki.

Blackbeard Teach appeared utterly powerless in the face of his Conqueror's Haki.

But Sand Crocodile's performance was far worse than Blackbeard Teach's!

The sand crocodile, already unconscious, could not possibly fall unconscious a second time.

Even Blackbeard Teach, after struggling for a short while, was forcibly knocked unconscious by Storm's Conqueror's Haki.

A grand prize trophy surrounded by stars suddenly appeared in the void before Storm's eyes.

[All Stars Trophy: Marshall D. Teach]

[Tournament Rating: ★★★★★★★]

Storm glanced at the "Star Trophy: Blackbeard Teach" and silently put it away.

At the same time, his [Conqueror's Haki] was also put away.

Storm was already mentally prepared for Blackbeard Teach's strength.

But when he actually saw the "Star Trophy," he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Is this Blackbeard Teach's trophy?

That's so lame!

But Storm thought about it carefully.

Blackbeard Teach made his debut after leaving the Whitebeard Pirates.

He's either eating or on his way to eat.

Even if just a second ago he obtained the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, becoming an unprecedented dual Devil Fruit user.

The next second, Blackbeard Teach and the entire Blackbeard Pirates were almost slapped to pieces by the Fleet Admiral.

Blackbeard Teach is truly one of those rare and very special villainous pirates.

He should be very strong, but he always gives people the feeling of being very weak.

Storm even knew one more thing.

In the future, Blackbeard Teach will lead his men to intercept the Heart Pirates.

As a result, even with almost half of the Blackbeard Pirates attacking, they almost couldn't defeat Bepo.

That's right.

Bepo is the mascot of the Heart Pirates, whose bounty is a staggering 1500 Berries—a bounty that can bring them to their knees with just a single sentence!

"Tsk! It's still a Star Trophy after all!"

Storm shook his head, casually conjured a nearly enclosed clay cage, and then sent the Blue-Eyes White Dragon to the nearby sea to fill the clay cage.

Followed by.

Blackbeard Teach was then thrown into the clay cage by Storm.

Storm did indeed have his eye on Blackbeard Teach's Dark-Dark Fruit.

However, Blackbeard Teach was also the "bait" he used to lure the Whitebeard Pirates.

Now is not the time to kill Blackbeard Teach and seize the Dark-Dark Fruit.

Lock this guy up first!

Storm wasn't quite sure how well Blackbeard Teach had developed the Dark-Dark Fruit, nor was he certain whether the Dark-Dark Fruit could actually counter the "creations" of Devil Fruits.

But one thing he was certain of was that the Dark-Dark Fruit had absolutely no chance against seawater!

This is an inherent flaw in all Devil Fruits!

Storm sent Blackbeard Teach, cage and all, into the Void Prison, then looked at Lafitte beside him.

Blackbeard Teach needs to spare his life for now.

But there's no need for Lafitte.

Storm grabbed Lafitte, twisted him casually, and broke Lafitte's neck as easily as snapping a blade of grass.

A blood-red trophy leaped out of the void.

Storm merely glanced at the trophy before putting it away.

A four-star Death Gold Cup. —

This thing isn't just useless, it's utterly useless!

In comparison.

The [Mythical Zoan-type Siren Fruit] is still more valuable.

Storm, carrying Laffitte's corpse, used the power of the Devil Ring to extract the remaining Devil Fruit power from the body of the Blackbeard Pirates' navigator.

A moment later.

A rare and special Devil Fruit was reborn in Storm's hands.

[Zoan Type, Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan Type, Siren Mode]!

"Another Mythical Zoan form of the Human-Human Fruit—"

Storm suddenly remembered the blue-nosed reindeer in the Drum Kingdom.

"We're shivering with cold; when will ordinary people be able to stand up again?"

cough cough.

Storm placed the reborn Mythical Zoan-type Siren Fruit into his "Gate of Babylon" for safekeeping. He personally felt that the quality of the Siren Fruit was quite good.

Although the Siren Fruit shouldn't be used for playing with fire —

But the Siren Fruit allows you to fly!

Moreover, it possesses a wide range of hypnotic abilities.

The only problem is that this Devil Fruit has a rather strict gender requirement.

Suitable only for women.

Storm thought back to the women he knew.

If we set aside race...

Storm thinks Shirahoshi would be a good fit to eat the Siren Fruit.

Unfortunately, I can't let it go...

Moreover, he is a "Sea King" of his generation.

If Shirahoshi eats the Siren Fruit, she will become a landlubber who cannot swim.
