Dark-Dark Fruit...
What an intoxicating power.
Marshall D. Teach truly felt the joy of being a Dark-Dark Fruit user.
This was really worth the twenty-plus years he endured in the Whitebeard Pirates, offending both the Whitebeard Pirates and the Akatsuki two superpowers, just to gain the Fruit power!
Yet for every sacrifice...
Ca a huge reward indeed!
These rewards completely exceeded Teach’s imagination!
Although Teach just learned that eating this Fruit cos with considerable risks,
as long as he had enough ambition and strength to wield the power of this Fruit, he could obtain anything he wanted in the world!
Power...
Strength...
Influence...
Whatever he wanted, he could take at will!
Anything the Dark-Dark Fruit user desires can be obtained, this Fruit power is definitely enough to plunge the world into darkness!
"Hoo..."
Marshall D. Teach took a deep breath, suppressing his excitent, what should he do now? It seems like he could do anything!
Kill a country’s king and let White Zetsu take his place; or go hunt down Devil Fruit users and form an army of ability users with White Zetsu?
Such tough choices!
Black Zetsu looked at Marshall D. Teach’s conflicted expression, curling a sinister smile: "What we need to do is seize everything from Whitebeard, we can’t waste more ti here, before White Zetsu becos a fighting force, we should first gather so useful people...
Slowly find so ruthless guys on this sea and make them our pawns and subordinates, paving the way for the age of darkness..."
"Hehahahaha..."
Marshall D. Teach’s gaze slowly shifted to Black Zetsu, grinning: "Just as I thought!"
Black Zetsu’s body slowly attached to Teach, its voice gradually erging from Teach: "I am your will, and will naturally act according to your wishes... As for those White Zetsu, let them hide for now and gather intelligence from around the world, even infiltrating the Navy Headquarters Marinford if necessary, then summon them when needed..."
"Hehahahaha... Indeed!"
Marshall D. Teach clenched his fist tightly, a frenzied look growing on his face: "Now they will call Blackbeard... the era of the old man will soon be over, and the future era of this sea will be called Blackbeard!"
Unfortunately...
Marshall D. Teach’s arrogance didn’t last long, as he knew Uchiha Sasuke and Ace were still on his trail.
And now Teach also wanted to go to Drum Island, that dical nation, to see if his body could hold the power of two Devil Fruits...
What he wanted, was to seize everything from Whitebeard!
Apart from Whitebeard’s position and territories, he also wanted Whitebeard’s power; to dominate this world, his own strength was not yet enough to reach the peak!
At least against Uchiha Sasuke’s pursuit, he had no way to fight back!
"Besides that punk Sasuke..."
Marshall D. Teach couldn’t help but grit his teeth, spitting out: "Not to ntion that pesky Akatsuki, those guys might follow as well..."
The mysterious leader of Akatsuki had always been looking for the Dark-Dark Fruit, surely because that leader knew the true value of it, so they didn’t need Devil Fruit users, they needed the Dark-Dark Fruit!
What a hassle...
But this slight trouble pales in comparison to the temptation of conquering this world!
If one has insufficient ambition...
They would be devoured by the soul of the Dark-Dark Fruit!
Just as Marshall D. Teach cursed the Akatsuki organization, Black Zetsu attached to him, trying to contact Uehara Naraku through the Rinnegan.
"Hogoromo..."
Black Zetsu’s voice carried a hint of amusent, making it obvious it was quite pleased with itself for playing its old tricks.
Years ago, it deceived Uchiha Madara this way...
Now the guy nad Marshall D. Teach is no different.
Unfortunately, Black Zetsu got the na wrong.
"You’ve got the wrong person."
Uehara Naraku calmly responded, correcting Black Zetsu with a cold tone: "I am Uehara Naraku, not your brother..."
"What difference does it make?"
Black Zetsu’s smile held a bit of regret, sighing: "We’re all family, you know, Mother has missed you ever since you left..."
"Get to the point, don’t ntion her."
"So heartless..."
Whenever Black Zetsu brought up Princess Kaguya, it always spoke well, being Kaguya’s will: "Mother is doting on you in her own way, she sincerely wants to..."
"Hey, Black Zetsu."
Uehara Naraku suddenly beca a bit stern: "There’s only one moon on this sea, but I think Chibaku Tensei can add another one, don’t you think?"
"Hahaha... Let’s not talk about that."
Black Zetsu wisely changed the subject: "Marshall D. Teach is already under our control, he recognizes as his will..."
"Good job."
Uehara Naraku did not hold back in praising Black Zetsu’s work: "I’ll have Uchiha Obito infiltrate around you to assist you."
"Hahaha... That’s for the best."
Black Zetsu asked slyly: "Uehara, if you’re free, can you call Mother with a Radio Snail, or use the Rinnegan to contact her..."
"I’m really busy right now."
Uehara Naraku imdiately interrupted Black Zetsu.
At the mont, Uehara Naraku was indeed very busy.
Because after severing contact with Black Zetsu, Uehara Naraku quickly contacted Yakushi Kabuto, instructing him to dispatch a CP Departnt team to assist in capturing Revolutionary Army’s Sabo or Monkey D. Dragon.
This can be considered an achievent.
Moreover, this achievent will help Yakushi Kabuto advance further.
When Uehara Naraku and Yakushi Kabuto were discussing, Uehara slightly ntioned his possible defection from the Navy, and Kabuto imdiately endorsed the plan.
Kabuto also believes that the bigger the actions Uehara takes when defecting, the better...
Because Kabuto plans to use Uehara Naraku’s defection to bla Sengoku the Buddha in front of the Five Elders for poor judgnt!
Yakushi Kabuto’s tactics were truly unscrupulous.
Really far from being humane...
Aokiji couldn’t help but clench his fists beside him.
The right, the wrong, the true, the false are all your say? No matter what Marshal Sengoku does, he will be used by the Akatsuki forces...
Not even the tiniest area for exploitation is let go.
"We are nearing Log Town."
They are passing through the Windless Zone of the Grand Line and will soon arrive at Log Town in the East Sea.
To ensure they would reach Log Town before Luffy departs, Uehara Naraku has been pushing the warship at full throttle.
Aokiji rubbed his forehead, watching Uehara Naraku hang up Kabuto’s Radio Snail, and couldn’t help but say, "Why has Yakushi Kabuto beco increasingly malevolent?"
"Perhaps because of this decaying World Governnt..."
Uehara Naraku shook his head, sighed, and said, "I guess it’s due to seeing too much of the treachery within the World Governnt these last couple of years! Co on, let revisit my old haunts!"
Log Town.
This small island located at the entrance of the Grand Line, Uehara Naraku had visited once before; it was there that he awakened his Supre King Haki.
Indeed.
Uehara Naraku awakened his Supre King Haki on the execution platform, and this trashy system simply elevated the level of his Supre King Haki.
When Uehara Naraku arrived, the weather in Log Town appeared sowhat fierce, seemingly not at all suitable for a departure.
Port area.
Uehara Naraku’s warship slowly sailed in, his gaze surveying around and finally landing on a ship with a sturdy little lamb at the bow.
That was the Golden rry.
The very vessel of the Straw Hat Pirates.
Several orange trees were planted atop the Golden rry, and the deck looked extraordinarily clean, showing the Straw Hat Pirates’ affection for their small ship.
"Ain."
Uehara Naraku suddenly waved, calling his deputy over: "Do you see that little ship? Now move the ship over there, leave one of the orange trees on that small ship, move the rest to our warship, and also search for all the money on that ship..."
"Wha...what?"
Ain’s face was full of confusion.
Aokiji couldn’t help but cover his cheek, rubbing his forehead and muttering, "Hey, isn’t that the pirate ship of Monkey D. Luffy?"
"Hmm."
"But..."
Ain, the bewildered beauty and Sword Master, appeared increasingly perplexed: "Admiral Uehara, why don’t we just sink it now? That way, they won’t escape, right?"
"You have a point."
Uehara Naraku nodded and then said, "But actually, I want to empty the belongings on that pirate ship first..."
"..."
Ain fell silent.
What kind of devilish superior is this!
Even Aokiji agreed with this approach.
In any case, Uehara Naraku is presumably intending to let Monkey D. Luffy go, so at least Vice Admiral Garp’s grandson won’t fall into their hands.
Unfortunately...
Garp’s grandson is actually in even more danger now.
On the execution platform in Log Town, an execution is taking place, with Garp’s grandson Monkey D. Luffy as the intended target.
Clown Buggy and Alvida have captured Straw Hat Luffy, planning to execute him on the platform where Gol D. Roger was once executed.
Just as Luffy was about to be beheaded, a whirlwind of lightning descended, obliterating the execution platform and saving Luffy’s life.
Two figures appeared amidst the lightning.
Monkey D. Dragon’s face erged, with a mysterious smile on his lips. He slowly turned to the young man beside him and said, "Sabo, if you want to et him, go have a face-to-face."
"Yes, ti has flown so fast!"
Sabo smiled, nodding, and said, "I never thought Luffy would soon enter the Grand Line!"
Sabo couldn’t help but look at Dragon before him again: "But, Dragon sir, won’t you go et Luffy together?"
"Not the right ti yet."
Dragon slowly shook his head.
Just at this mont, white smoke suddenly enveloped the square, capturing a group of pirates; the Navy Captain stationed at Log Town, Smoker, finally appeared!
This Navy Captain rounded up the Buggy Pirates and Alvida’s group, especially using his Logia-type Fruit ability to try and capture the pirate he thought might beco a major threat!
"Straw Hat Luffy!"
Smoker’s figure transford into a cloud of smoke, swiftly catching up with Luffy, releasing a white smoke to restrain Luffy’s body, his face flashing fiercely: "No matter what, you absolutely cannot escape from here!"
"Don’t interrupt my voyage!"
Monkey D. Luffy waved his fists, trying to disperse the smoke before him, but his strength was futile!
Just as Smoker grasped his Jitte and was ready to slam it into Luffy, a water pipe suddenly appeared, blocking Smoker’s Jitte!
"My brother is going to beco the Pirate King..."
Sabo held the water pipe in his hand, slowly raising his head to look at Smoker, with a smile on his face: "So now, please don’t hinder his voyage..."
