"Fight me?"
Tsugikoku Yoshiichi looked at Blackbeard in the distance and saw deep jealousy and a burning desire to fight in the other's eyes.
Although Tsugakuni Yoriichi's life is smooth, the suffering he has gone through is probably only understood by himself. After several lifetimes as a human being, Tsugakuni Yoriichi has experienced much more than Blackbeard. Whether it is the people he met or the things he encountered, they are far beyond Blackbeard's imagination.
This was not a reason he had never seen before when it came to people like Blackbeard. The emotion revealed in his eyes was extremely familiar to Yoriichi Tsugikuni, and even made Yoriichi a little dazed for a moment.
That kind of intense jealousy is exactly the same as what Jiguo Yansheng felt back then.
Yoriichi Tsugakuin has also come a long way from being an ordinary person to where he is today. He can actually understand the feelings of Blackbeard and Iwaki Tsugakuin.
Compared with people like them, the reason why I can surpass them is inseparable from my "absolute" talent.
"Marshall Teach"
"I will fight you seriously."
Tsugikuni Yoshiichi's expression also became extremely serious. He did not underestimate Blackbeard. At this moment, he really treated Blackbeard on the same level as himself.
He is already dying, so taking care of his pitiful self-esteem is just a piece of cake.
Yoriichi Tsugikuni could recognize Blackbeard's desire to become stronger, and even recognized his jealousy of him.
The only thing he couldn't accept was Blackbeard as a person.
Among the crew members of the Whitebeard Pirates, there are only a few who can truly keep themselves clean. Edward Newgate never restricts the freedom of his sons. On this sea, the children who bear his name can often live the life they want.
A pure person like Marco can still maintain his purity even when he is with Whitebeard; but similarly, a person like Blackbeard can also use various means to satisfy his desires.
The reason why Blackbeard appears low-key in the Whitebeard Pirates is simply because his strength is insignificant. As for his actions, he has actually already "gone with the crowd" with other pirates. If not, how could he become low-key among the pirate group?
“Thief hahahaha!!!”
Blackbeard could actually clearly notice that there had been a slight change in Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's attitude towards him. Originally, he could not see any emotion in Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's indifferent gaze, as if in the other's eyes he was just an insignificant minion who could be killed at will.
But now, Blackbeard at least felt that he was in Tsugikuni Yoriichi's eyes.
Although that indifferent look still made him unhappy, it was enough for Blackbeard.
After you defeat the opponent, the look in that guy's eyes when he looks at you will naturally change.
Blackbeard spread his hands, and two particles of "dark water" condensed in his palms.
Facing Yoriichi Tsugakuni, Blackbeard plans to use the same trick again and use his dual abilities to give the opponent a head-on blow.
As Blackbeard flicked his left hand, a ball of dark water shot rapidly towards Yoshiichi Tsugakuni. This attack was actually just a feint. The real killer move was another ball of dark water in Blackbeard's hand.
These Mihawks lost the initiative under Blackbeard's attack.
If Tsugikuni Yoriichi only focused on what was in front of him, even a strong man like him would be caught.
If the power of the Shun Shun Fruit is taken out alone, it may not add much to the attack power of the ability user himself.
However, when the ability of any devil fruit is combined with the Instant Instant Fruit, the combat power it can generate is definitely not as simple as 1+1=2.
Blackbeard's combat effectiveness can be increased exponentially with the blessing of two devil fruits.
Relying on these two abilities, he has the capital to compete with Ji Guoyuan one by one.
Mihawk's previous attack was actually seen by Yoshiichi Tsugakuin. Facing Blackbeard's attack, Yoshiichi Tsugakuin only glanced at the dark water flying rapidly in front of him, and his attention was focused on the other dark water in Blackbeard's hand.
For Yoriichi Tsugikuni, this blatant attack was not even a feint.
Moreover, the biggest difference between Yoriichi Tsugikuni and Mihawk is that his domineering Haki reserves and Mihawk's domineering Haki reserves are not on the same level at all.
All the people on the entire Beehive Island are shrouded in the observation Haki of Yoriichi Tsugikuni.
Long before the battle, Yoriichi had already assessed the combat effectiveness of Beehive Island.
With a combat power level like that of Beehive Island, even if Yoriichi Tsugakuni maintained the output of his domineering Haki throughout the whole process, he would be able to defeat all the pirates on the island before his domineering Haki was exhausted.
It is precisely because of this terrifying reserve of domineering that Yoriichi Tsugikuni has gained combat power far exceeding Mihawk.
If the combat power that Mihawk can achieve when he tries his best is 10 points, and that of Tsugakuni Yoshiichi is 12 points, then the biggest difference between the two is not actually the difference of 2 points in combat power.
The biggest difference is that Mihawk can only maintain a combat power of 8 points most of the time, and can reach 10 points only when he bursts out, while Tsugikuni Yoriichi can always maintain a combat power of 12 points.
This is the biggest gap between Yoriichi Tsugikuni and Mihawk.
This is also the biggest gap between him and people like Blackbeard.
Under Blackbeard's gaze, Ji Guoyuan gently swung the long sword in his hand, and at the moment when Anshui approached him, the sword lightly hit Anshui's side, directly changing the direction of Anshui's attack.
At the moment when Yuichiro Tsuchikuni drew his sword, the other dark water in Blackbeard's palm also disappeared. When this dark water appeared again, it had reached Yuichiro Tsuchikuni's lower back.
Blackbeard's eyes widened slightly, revealing a strong sense of anticipation. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up, revealing a bright smile.
“Success!!!”
Blackbeard shouted excitedly in his heart, but this excitement quickly disappeared.
After blocking a dark water with a knife, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi did not stay where he was. Instead, he leaped up and attacked directly towards Blackbeard.
Due to the fast speed, Blackbeard was unable to even catch sight of Yoriichi Tsugakuni's figure. The only thing he could see was a golden light flashing before his eyes.
At this moment, Yoshikazu Tsugakuni has also used the power of the devil fruit. The burning golden flames propel Yoshikazu Tsugakuni's body, making him faster.
The dark water that Blackbeard transferred behind Yoshikazu Tsugakuin using the Shun Shun Fruit could not keep up with Yoshikazu Tsugakuin's speed at all.
This is not because Tsugikuni Yoriichi's speed surpasses the Shun-Shun Fruit, but because his speed surpasses the Dark-Dark Fruit.
The moment Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's figure disappeared from his sight, Blackbeard felt a sense of alarm in his heart. He didn't even bother to look for Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's figure, but directly used the power of the Shun Shun Fruit to get away from the spot.
The next moment after Blackbeard disappeared, a knife shadow fell from the sky and stood directly where Blackbeard was originally.
"boom!!!"
The domineering slash directly hit the ground, and the terrifying shock wave brought up dust and gravel, which spread rapidly in all directions. The entire battlefield was shrouded in thick smoke and dust.
When Blackbeard appeared on the battlefield again, his eyes had become blurred and he could not see the situation on the battlefield clearly.
After inhaling a mouthful of dust, Blackbeard couldn't help coughing. Then he covered his mouth and nose with one hand and waved the other hand in front of him, as if he wanted to use this method to disperse some of the dust in front of him.
Blackbeard could sense the various auras on the battlefield. In the distance, the cries of the New Navy and the pirates fighting were clearly audible. The auras of those people were also clearly within the range of Blackbeard's observation Haki.
But Blackbeard still frowned, looked around, his heart beating faster and faster, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
Within the range of his observation Haki, he did not sense the aura of Yoriichi Tsugikuni.
Perhaps because he had escaped death so many times before, the sense of luck in his heart and the pain in the back of his neck made Blackbeard subconsciously ignore this point.
Only when he was really immersed in the battle did Blackbeard seriously analyze the situation of both sides and Tsugakuni Yoriichi's fighting style.
His vision was blocked by the smoke and dust, and his observation Haki could not sense the breath of Yoriichi Tsugikuni. This feeling of facing the unknown made Blackbeard feel very uncomfortable.
However, Blackbeard is also a man who has experienced many battles. During his many years in the Whitebeard Pirates, he has experienced thousands of battles, big and small, including many "super pirates" like "Red-Haired Shanks" and "Clown King Buggy".
He was unable to determine from which direction Tsugakuinichi would launch the attack, so he planned to use the simplest method.
“Drink it!!”
As Blackbeard let out a low growl, deep darkness quickly spread from under his feet to the surroundings. At the same time, darkness in the shape of black smoke also emerged from Blackbeard's body. The terrifying suction force came from the ground and the "smoke column", and the smoke and dust in the air also quickly rushed towards the darkness.
Blackbeard didn't like the feeling of being unable to see.
This would cause him to feel a strong sense of unease.
The first thing to do is to create a battlefield environment where you can feel a little at ease.
"Wow"
"Is this the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit?"
"That's the power that Rocks, the king of the world back then, possessed."
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly entered Blackbeard's ears.
Hearing the sound, a strong tingling sensation suddenly came from the chest. The next moment, Blackbeard's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot. He had already mobilized the power of the Instant Instant Fruit.
After Blackbeard's figure disappeared, at his original position, Ji Guoyuan lightly swung the long sword in his hand and shook off the blood on the blade.
When Blackbeard's figure appeared in Tsugakuko Yoshiichi's sight again, there was a penetrating wound on the opponent's right chest. Blood kept flowing out of Blackbeard's chest. The strong feeling of weakness made Blackbeard's eyes blurred.
"you"
Blackbeard grabbed the wound on his chest tightly with his hands, but he couldn't stop the blood from flowing out.
"Can you still speak?"
"Your three hearts can actually work together?"
"A body like this is really rare!"
When Blackbeard heard what Ji Guoyuan said, his pupils trembled and a look of disbelief appeared on his face.
Although this was not the first time the two met, they had only met a few times. At that time, Blackbeard was just one of the countless people on the Moby Dick and did not attract any attention at all.
But he didn't expect that after just a few short rounds of fighting, Jiguo Yuanyi revealed the biggest secret in his heart.
Three hearts
This is actually the biggest secret buried in Blackbeard's body. Unlike ordinary people, he has a heart in each of his left and right chest cavities, and even in his middle cavity, there is a small heart that is different from the normal size.
These three hearts are the source of Blackbeard's terrifying physical strength.
It is also one of the fundamental reasons why he was able to obtain the power of two devil fruits.
The Dark-Dark Fruit only plays a supporting role. Blackbeard's greatest reliance is his body structure that is different from that of ordinary people.
Anyone who can stand at the top of the world always has some special talent.
Blackbeard is no exception. His ordinariness is only compared to people like Yoriichi Tsugakuni and Whitebeard. Compared with real ordinary people, he is also gifted.
The knife of Jiguo Yuanyi had already pierced one of Blackbeard's hearts.
The biggest secret that Blackbeard buried deep in his heart could not escape the sight of Yoriichi Tsugakuni's transparent world.
Yoshikazu Tsugakuni originally thought that Blackbeard's three hearts were dynamically connected, and piercing one of them would cause a chain reaction, causing Blackbeard's body to completely collapse.
However, judging from Blackbeard's reaction after being stabbed, Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's judgment was slightly wrong.
But it doesn’t matter, there is still a chance!
There was a murderous glint in Ji Guoyuan's eyes, and as soon as he finished speaking, his figure had disappeared from the spot.
The seriously injured Blackbeard tried hard to raise his head. The severe pain in his body made his mind chaotic. He knew that he needed to mobilize the power of the devil fruit to get away from where he was, but this piercing pain was something Blackbeard could not ignore.
The brain fog only existed for a moment, but it completely deprived Blackbeard of any chance of escape.
Admittedly, Tsugikuni Yoshiichi's speed is indeed not as fast as the Shun Shun Fruit.
But at this time, there were only about 10 meters between Tsugikuni Yoriichi and Blackbeard. At such a close distance, Yoriichi's movement speed was actually the same as the Shun Shun Fruit.
The absolute speed of the Shun Shun Fruit is indeed much faster than Tsugikuni Yoriichi's movement speed.
But that also depends on the environment in which the comparison is made.
If the distance is infinitely long, then the advantages of the Instant Instant Fruit will be fully demonstrated.
However, if the distance is short, this difference can actually be easily made up in battle.
Because in the battle between Yoriichi Tsugakuni and Blackbeard, the speed of movement is no longer the deciding factor.
Awareness and reaction speed are the factors that determine the outcome of this battle.
Under such circumstances, Blackbeard's extraordinary perception of pain would inevitably affect his judgment.
As the saying goes, success and failure are both due to Xiao He.
This sentence can be perfectly reflected in Blackbeard.
He was able to dodge Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's attack at the beginning thanks to his extraordinary perception ability, but now, he can no longer dodge Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's attack because of the drag of this perception power.
"laugh!"
Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's figure appeared in front of Blackbeard, and the long knife in his hand stabbed into Blackbeard's chest, piercing the other intact heart.
