Chapter 400: Ace vs. Teach - Defeat
Rumble!
Compared to the sounds of battle emanating from Banaro Island, Mu Chong's voice was far more jarring to the Blackbeard Pirates.
The indifferent expression on Mu Chong's face as he spoke was an even greater blow to the hearts of the Blackbeard Pirates.
"Hmph! Since you're not here to start a war, why did you make such an unpleasant appearance right away? Come to think of it, our Blackbeard Pirates have never done anything to offend you, have we?"
Faced with Mu Chong's words, Lafayette took a deep breath, struggling to support his body under the weight, and slowly spoke.
"Oh? Are you feeling unwell? Hahaha! But seeing you all feeling so unwell makes me happy!"
"Pfft!"
Lafayette's words startled Mu Chong, who then burst into laughter, saying something even more hurtful. Even Nicole Robin, standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"As for what grudge I have against your Blackbeard Pirates? Hmm! Does that mean I can't attack you? This is the sea, after all!"
As Mu Chong spoke, he glanced discreetly at Van Augur, who was staring at him, before speaking loudly and without restraint.
"This……"
At this moment, Lafayette was speechless. Trying to reason with someone he couldn't beat, and who was so shameless, was like casting pearls before swine.
Splash!
However, just as everyone fell silent, Burgess, who had been blasted down the hillside by White Cat Mumu's punch, returned to the hillside platform.
At this moment, Burgess was in a sorry state, though he was not physically injured, except for obvious burn marks on both arms.
"Humph……"
Upon returning, Bages first glanced at the white cat Mumu, who had taken his place, and snorted coldly. Then he looked at Muchong, who was standing in the distance, but made no further move, simply standing silently beside his own people.
But when he saw that everyone else looked miserable, the anger in his eyes gradually turned into confusion.
"Hehehe..."
Mu Chong first glanced at Bages, then fixed his gaze on Van Augur. A red light flashed in his eyes, and a faint aura gradually began to emanate from Mu Chong.
"Long time no see, Van Auker! I told you fate would bring us together again! Today, fate has brought us to another crossroads! So, what will you choose?"
boom!
As Mu Chong finished speaking, a chilling pressure swept over everyone, and Van Augur, who was directly hit, was severely injured, with large beads of sweat streaming down his forehead.
"Ok?"
At this moment, Lafayette and the others all fixed their gazes on Van Auger, their eyes revealing doubt and a hint of wariness. They never expected that Van Auger had seen the chivalrous Mu Chong more than once.
"Hoo! Hero! I'm the sniper of the Blackbeard Pirates..."
"Hahaha! Van Augur, Blackbeard can't save your life. Do you think if I were to kill you right now, Blackbeard would be able to come and save you in time, or even save a few of you?"
boom!
Rumble!
The battle on the battlefield had now reached a fever pitch. The collision of red flames and black smoke produced a massive explosion that shook the entire island of Banaro.
"Phew! Fate won't end here!"
Van Augur took a deep breath and, once again with unwavering courage, refused Mu Chong.
call!
A cool sea breeze swept across the hillside, and as Van Augur's voice faded, the entire hillside fell into an eerie silence. No one spoke; everyone stared intently at Mu Chong.
"Hahahaha! Good! Very good! You really are the person I've chosen! Van Augur! However, things don't happen a third time. So far, I've given you two chances! Whether your fate will continue next time is not up to you!"
Suddenly, Mu Chong burst into laughter, crossed his arms, and stared intently at Van Augur. Instead of killing him despite Van Augur's refusal, he began to fly into the air under everyone's watchful eyes.
"Farewell, Van Augur! Fate will bring us together again!"
Swish!
Mu Chong, carrying Nico Robin, took to the air, turning to look at Van Augur, and then flew directly towards the gradually calming battlefield.
Mu Chong never once gave Lafayette and the others a proper look; his attention was solely focused on Van Auger.
"Hmph! You don't know what's good for you!"
boom!
At this moment, the white cat Mumu snorted coldly at Van Augur, then pushed off the ground with both legs, using Moonwalk to quickly chase after Mu Chong.
As Mu Chong and the other two left, the gravity and oppressive force that had been hanging over the hillside also disappeared. Van Augur and the other three clearly felt a sense of relief, and for a moment, they even felt as if they had regained their freedom.
"Hehehe! This is getting more and more interesting!"
After a long while, Lafayette, leaning on his cane with both hands, stared intently in the direction of the battlefield, and said with a peculiar smile, "..."
Van Augur frowned deeply upon hearing this. The intelligent Van Augur understood the implication perfectly, and with two pairs of watchful eyes beside him, his mind was in turmoil.
The scene shifts, and the battle in the center of Banaro Island is nearing its end. With the clash between the 'Great Flame Ring - Flame Emperor' and darkness, this internal battle within the Whitebeard Pirates has come to a close.
The winner is Blackbeard Marshall D. Teach.
"Hahahaha! You lost! Ace! Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
He was missing several teeth, had a rugged appearance, thick body hair, a burly build, tanned skin, and bushy black hair. He wore a headscarf, bracelets on his wrists, and various jewelry rings on each of his ten fingers. He was wearing a black overcoat and had a bare chest and exposed breasts. He was standing on the ruins, panting heavily.
On the ground opposite him lay Ace, shirtless, wearing black trousers, with the Whitebeard Pirates' symbol tattooed on his back.
Both of them were in bad shape at this moment, but compared to Teach, who was slowly getting up, Ace's injuries had rendered him unable to move.
"Cough cough cough! Diqi..."
Blood streamed from Ace's mouth as he weakly tried to say something, but the resentment in his eyes betrayed his true state.
"Hahaha! Captain Ace, why did you have to be so ruthless? I was originally planning to invite you to join my pirate crew, but your actions have really infuriated me!"
Teach, enduring the pain, stood up, his gaze icy as he stared at Ace lying on the ground. His tone was devoid of the camaraderie they once shared on the ship.
"Hehehehe! I suddenly have a very interesting idea. Compared to the Straw Hat Pirates with a bounty of over 100 million Berries, wouldn't the Navy like you even more, with a bounty of over 500 million Berries?"
"Hmph! If I hand you over to the Navy, the position of Shichibukai will surely be mine, and perhaps there will be some unexpected gains as well, hehehehe!!!"
Despite his injuries, Teach was still incredibly excited. He had decided to abandon his plan to capture the Straw Hat Pirates and instead hand Ace over to the Marines in exchange for a position as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, or perhaps even greater benefits.
Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
"Huh? Who is it??"
However, at that moment, a crisp sound suddenly entered Diqi's ears, instantly putting him on alert.
