Thanks for the invitation. I'm in Type-Moon, inheriting the legacy of Zi-O.

"...Let's sneak away." Jumping off Asterius's shoulder, Euryale quietly ran towards the cabin as if avoiding some natural enemy.

On the other side, Nianzhuo could even see the man standing at the bow of the opposite ship.

There's nowhere left to hide, nowhere left to avoid...

He quietly took the driver into his hand.

"So this is the real enemy of this singularity...!"

The world-renowned pirate is probably the very concept of "pirate" itself.

“Edward Teach…?” Nian Zhuo murmured, gripping the driver in his hand tightly.

Meanwhile, in a secluded corner of the Golden Deer, a crimson-clad knight silently infiltrated the ship.

"So, Nian Zhuo, having passed the first trial, what will you do this time..." He took out an invisibility card from the card box, and then his figure disappeared in multiple black and white clones.

"I am looking forward."

Subsequently, the Golden Deer encountered an enemy ship.

Pirates, who roam the seas, don't seem so imposing?

Finally, the two ships reached a distance where they could see each other, and Nianzhuo and the others also saw the man standing on the deck.

"That's... the legendary pirate, Blackbeard?" Mash and Ritsuka both saw each other's appearance and murmured softly.

"..." However, the other party ignored them, their gaze wandering across the ship as if searching for something.

"Hey, you deadbeat over there! Did you hear me?!" Drake was losing his patience. He put one foot on the mast and shouted at the captain with his flintlock pistol raised.

"Huh?" Blackbeard was clearly startled, then picked at his ear and blew on it. "I can't hear BBA (old hag)!"

Upon hearing this, the three of them all turned to look at Drake.

"——————Huh?" After a pause of one second, Drake asked incredulously.

"...Huh?" Mash was also taken aback by Blackbeard's words and made a questioning sound.

"What did you just say?" she asked haltingly, but seeing the bulging veins on Drake's forehead, Nian Zhuo knew she was probably furious.

"I—I—say—!" Blackbeard continued shouting relentlessly, even raising his hands in the air to indicate, "This is none of your business, you BBA! What good are your big breasts, are you just bored? (Hey! Don't look down on big-breasted bastards!)" Then, upon seeing Drake's face, he stroked his small tuft of beard. "But the scars are great, aren't they? Not bad, the knife wounds are really nice. This attribute is worth having."

"But..." Blackbeard's expression shifted to one of difficulty. "The problem is your age, it's really a headache. If you were half your age younger, you might still be within my hunting range. *Puff puff puff puff*" Blackbeard let out an unbearable breathing sound as he imagined that scene.

"..." Drake's eyes dimmed, trembling uncontrollably at Blackbeard's words, before he collapsed to the ground with a thud. Clearly, the thread of reason and thought in his mind had snapped. (Sad)

"Boss? Boss!" The pirates circled around her, shaking her body, but Drake remained motionless. "Boss—is dead... (mentally)."

“No, she’s completely frozen.” Euryale crawled out of the cabin, looked at Drake lying motionless on the ground and shook her head helplessly. “But I can understand. After all, I was like this when I first met him.” As she spoke, Euryale patted her chest as if she was relieved. “…It’s a wonder I’m still alive.”

As Euryale emerged from the cabin, the perverted old man opposite her naturally saw the goddess's small figure.

"Ughh ...

Then, Blackbeard transformed into a disgusting figure that would open his eyes to look at Euryale once, then close them and continue writhing, then open them again to look at Euryale, and then continue writhing.

"Ah, so cute! So cute! So~ cute~! I want to prpr, I want to be prpr! Especially under the armpits and groin!" Seeing the other person's eyes suddenly turn cold, he was so excited that even his beard trembled. "Ah, being stepped on by you is fine too! Being stepped on by your bare feet! Step on me with your bare feet! Look at me with contempt like you're looking at a cockroach! Everyone thinks so, right!" Although it was unclear who he was talking to, it felt disgusting.

"..." A few drops of sweat dripped from Nian Zhuo's forehead. "Although I have to admit, you really know a lot, but buddy, your ego is really weird!" Of course, the above was just his inner monologue. After all, with Euryale here, Blackbeard probably couldn't hear anyone else's words at all.

"Ugh... I hate it..." Yuri shuddered in disgust and crouched down, trying to avoid the pervert's gaze.

"..." Meanwhile, Asterius, who had somehow already gripped his twin axes, looked as if he was about to unleash his fury. (He also conveniently positioned himself in front of Euryale.)

"Hmm?" Euryale's figure was obscured by massive muscles. Blackbeard raised an eyebrow and saw Asterius standing in front of Euryale. "Hey you over there! You big guy! Are you going to get in my way?! Hand her over—hand her over—!" He shouted at the top of his lungs, "Hand over Euryale—!"

Meanwhile, Ritsuka and Mashu seemed to have just realized what was happening.

"...Eh!?" Seeing Nianzhuo's puzzled look, Mashu shook her head. "Sorry, my thoughts have just returned from their wandering."

“…Oh!?” Ritsuka also made a strange sound, and shook her head as she looked at Nencho who had turned his gaze towards her. “Sorry, me too.”

"Excuse me, Mr. Nianzhuo..." Mashu pointed tremblingly at Blackbeard, "What is that?"

"Yeah...yes." Ritsuka also looked incredulous, pointing at Blackbeard. "Then...who is that?"

Seeing the two girls' desperate expressions and cold gazes, Nianzhuo stopped thinking.

“Mary…Mary…?” Nencho called out his Master’s name through the communication device, sweat beading on his forehead. “That…that man is the Servant Blackbeard, right…?” His tone was filled with uncertainty.

“Uh…ah…eh…? Oh, Nianzhuo, are you calling me?” Mary’s voice sounded strained through the communication device. “Uh…hiss…” Then, a hissing sound of electricity followed by Mary’s scream, “That thing! That thing—!” disappeared completely.

"...Yes, that thing is indeed a Servant, and we know his real name is Blackbeard." In the end, only Nian Zhuo looked at Ritsuka and Mash with a deathly expression.

"I don't want to." Mashu immediately shook her head as if trying to banish the conclusion from her mind. "I don't want to admit that thing is a Servant."

“I…” Ritsuka’s gaze shifted back and forth between Mash and Nencho, and finally she lowered her head as if in defeat. “I’m sorry… I really can’t connect the composed Mr. Nencho and Mash with that person.”

Their voices also caught the attention of Blackbeard on the other side.

"…………Hmm?" Blackbeard quietly shifted his gaze and made a puzzled sound.

A 'danger' character appeared above Mashu and Ritsuka's heads without them noticing.

“…!” Ritsuka and Mashu naturally noticed the other’s gaze shifting towards them.

"Oh no...!" Nian Zhuo thought to himself, "This is bad."

"Ugh... ugh— ugh— ugh—! So good...!!!!" Blackbeard clutched his chest, looking completely satisfied. "Qualified! So embarrassing!" Pointing at Ritsuka and Mash, Blackbeard had a smug look on his face.

"Eee-ya!?" Only at times like this would Mashu and Ritsuka let out a girlish scream. —by Nianzhuo

"Hmm... who's the one who likes the one-eyed cloaking style again?" Blackbeard looked at Mash, lost in thought. "Bartholomew? No, wait, isn't he the one who likes the two-eyed cloaking style..." Then his gaze shifted to Ritsuka, and seeing the other's terrified expression, he nodded with satisfaction. "And who's the one who likes the energetic slice-of-life style again... Oh well, that's irrelevant! Anyway, you bug-like Servant over there, quickly state your name! Otherwise—"

"No... what else?!" Mash and Ritsuka both hid behind Nencho, peeking out their two little heads and screaming.

"Otherwise, I might dream about you after I fall asleep tonight." Blackbeard looked expectant, his face flushed.

Without hesitation, almost the next moment, Ritsuka and Mash emerged from behind Nencho, stood still, and looked straight at Blackbeard.

"My name is Mash Kyrielight! I'm a Demi-Servant!" said Mash, introducing herself earnestly.

"My name is Fujimaru Ritsuka. I am Mash's Master!" said Ritsuka, who was also introducing herself earnestly.

"Mash... Ritsuka..." Blackbeard, embracing himself, looked blissfully satisfied. "Mash... Marshmallow. Soft and sweet... how lewdly beautiful~ Hehehehe~"

Then all he could do was watch as Mashu hugged Nianzhuo's waist, abandoning her shield and throwing it aside, before hiding behind Nianzhuo.

"Mr. Nianzhuo! Help me! I'm covered in rashes and I can't breathe!" He looked like he couldn't take it anymore.

"Me too!" Forgetting all about gathering intelligence, Ritsuka hid behind Nencho simply because her name was called. "I can't take it anymore! This is worse than Director Mary giving ten consecutive lectures!"

"Um... good girl, good girl." Having never received such treatment before, Nianzhuo could only pat the two of them on the head to comfort them.

"Th...thank you." Mashu, finally calming down, blushed and realized what she had done. She was about to let go when she saw Blackbeard still looking in their direction, so she hugged Nianzhuo tightly again. "But, what should I do..."

"Ah~" Ritsuka let out a cute cry, but her hands still tightly gripped Nencho's waist. Her little orange head nodded frantically. "Yeah, yeah, Mr. Nencho, what should we do about... men? How should we deal with them..." Mashu and Ritsuka said in unison.

"...What a disgusting person."

Drake, who had been lying motionless on the ground, finally woke up.

"…Shoot." Drake, realizing what was happening, gave the order without hesitation as he looked at the pirates surrounding him.

"Huh!?" As if he hadn't heard clearly, the pirate moved a little closer.

“Use the cannons.” Drake’s expression gradually became uneasy as he pointed to the cannons on the side.

"Big...Big Sister?" Seeing their leader emanating an aura different from usual, the pirates were afraid and moved away.

"Use the cannons, all of them." Drake's calm expression finally turned furious. He pointed to the cannons on one side and then to the pirates surrounding him. "Use as many as you can. Listen to me, fire. Otherwise, I'll shove you all into the cannons like cannonballs and shoot you out."

"Yes...yes...! Madam!" Even their leader didn't dare to shout. The pirates scrambled to the cannons around them, loading and firing them in one go.

"Ouch?" Blackbeard, on the other ship, looked at Drake's furious figure and swayed his hips mockingly. "BBA. Angry? Furious? Puffed up with anger?"

"Turn the ship around!" Drake shouted, looking like he was ready to die with him. "Smash that damn bearded man into the abyss of hell!!"

"Oh dear, how awful. So this old woman..." Blackbeard shook his head helplessly, looking at the figure squatting on the deck, his expression becoming playful. "Hmm—Mr. Blood Axe King."

“…Guga ahhhhh!” The name that Nian Zhuo and the others had once defeated was now squatting on the deck again, all the muscles in his body tense.

"Can you help me snatch that thing from BBA?" After being serious for less than a second, Blackbeard hugged himself tightly and twisted his body again. "In the meantime, I will selflessly shoulder the responsibilities of humanity and focus on prpr Euryale."

On the other side, Yuri looked at Nianzhuo and the other two.

"...Fujimaru Ritsuka, and that Servant and the violent maniac." A rare serious expression appeared on the goddess's face.

“I already said I’m not a violent maniac…” Nian Zhuo wanted to argue, but he gave up.

"You all must protect me well, and absolutely do not let that most shameless sea cockroach in history get close to me, do you hear me?!" Euryale made a grasping motion in her hand, and a magnificent golden bow appeared in her hand. "Fortunately, my class is Archer, so at least I can provide some support from behind."

"Leave it to us, my petite goddess." With the driver at his waist, Nian Zhuo took out the Zi-O basic watch and started spinning it.

“Zio—!” He placed it on the driver at his waist, then turned it over.

A huge silver clock appeared behind Nian Zhuo, its bright silver strap emerging from the clock and enveloping Nian Zhuo's body.

"Rider Time! Kamen Rider Zi-O!!" Holding the Time Gun Sword in his hand, Nencho patted Ritsuka and Mash on the head behind him.

“…Okay! Mash picked up the shield and gripped it tightly, her eyes hardening. “Mash Kyrielight…Attack!”

"Alright, everyone, feel free to leave your backs and command to me!" Just then, Ritsuka met Blackbeard's lecherous gaze and instinctively shuddered. "Ughhhhh! And everyone, hurry up, that guy is absolutely disgusting!"

“…Hmm.” Asterius nodded, the muscles in his arms taut, and hot white breath escaped his mouth.

Then, the battle officially began.

A devastating defeat

The battle began here.

With the sound of cannons roaring from the Golden Deer, Nian Zhuo and his men's battle officially began.

The black cannon roared and recoiled violently as it moved backward.

The flaming cannonball slammed into Blackbeard's ship, creating a ripple in the sea.

However... it cannot be broken.

The difference between the two ships was simply too great. Whether it was the thickness of the armor or the actual firepower, the ship that had become part of Blackbeard's Noble Phantasm still had a significant advantage over Drake's ship, which was still in human form.

"Tsk...!" Gripping the handle of the Time Gunsword tightly, purple bullets formed a dense barrage and flew towards Blackbeard's ship.
