Chapter 64
Everyone turned to look at the speaker, including me. When I saw this man, I chuckled to myself, he just couldn't leave it like that, could he?
- What is Teach? Thatch asked in surprise.
"Will you just believe this guy?" He's probably lying, where is the proof of his words? - Blackbeard said with displeasure.
I chuckled and said:
- Marshal D. Teach, huh? Call me a liar, and your guts aren't too thin. But who are you anyway? I spoke with the division commanders, what have you got to do with it? - Teach just didn't know what to say to my words, and I continued:
- Since when does a subordinate get into the conversation of a superior? Or is it normal on the Yonko ship?
Thatch frowned and said to Teach:
- Now is not the time for Beard, this does not concern you, I have already decided everything.
Titch stood and did not know what to do, on the one hand the most desired object was stolen from him, and on the other he could not do anything. After all, he does not solve anything here, but one wrong step and he will become a corpse. So he just stood there and stared at me with hateful eyes.
Thatch handed me a fruit with the words:
- Here you go.
I took the fruit and said:
"Thank you, it won't be a problem for the Yonko team to find another one.
Thatch nodded.
- You're right, but why do you need a fruit, are you kind of a fruit?
- It is, but having a few more is also good, on the Grand Line such things are more valuable than money. I said with a grin. I will not tell him that I am able to control the powers of two fruits, and talking about the true power of yami is also the height of stupidity.
- What about Sabo? - Ace broke down.
I chuckled:
- It's not as bad as I said, but he really has some problems, now he is next to Dragon at one of the bases of the revolutionary army, I have no coordinates, but I know the name of the island.
- Dragon? Ace wondered, then asked, "What is this island?"
- Baltigo.
"Never heard of ..." Ace muttered.
At that moment, a rough voice was heard:
- The kid does not lie, few people know about Baltigo, but I have heard a lot about him, even been there, the Land of White Clay is a rather distant place, but I know where it is. - Whitebeard knocked out.
I nodded.
- Well, that's even better, well, then I went. - I began to quickly retire from the ship until something happened. Still, I did not come to the ship of peaceful guys, this can be said to be the lair of a real dragon.
But I was not allowed to leave quickly, I was about to jump back into the boat when a rude voice was heard behind my back:
- Wait, shked.
I exhaled and turned around, a huge man with a white mustache appeared in front of me. I didn't even notice how he managed to appear here so quickly. He stood two meters from me and said with a grin:
- You came to my ship and beat my son, you know it not well ... But you were not bad, Ra-ha-ha-ha. - Whitebeard blundered, and then asked: - What is your name?
- James D. More - I answered calmly.
- Ra-ha-ha, D. mean? Well, if so, let the old man help you. Whitebeard grinned oddly. I didn't like his smile right away and I said:
- Yes, no need, I sa ... * BAM * * Vshuuh *
With incredible speed, a huge fist crashed into me and I flew off the Yonko ship like a cannonball, everything around me was blurred. I almost fainted from such a blow, the blood rushed to my throat, but I restrained myself and tried to catch my balance.
With some difficulties, but I still managed to stop ... I was already above the clouds and below there was only one white canvas, I could not even see the water.
Hmm, he almost sent me to the moon, fucking old man.
I looked at my right hand and exhaled with relief, the fruit was not lost. I didn't have the right size pockets, so I had to hold it in my hand. Whitebeard hit me well, but he probably held back, if he wanted to kill me, then I would already be dead.
My plan for getting the fruit worked out quite well. Even though I had previously had thoughts of using Ace to get the fruit, I quickly dismissed them. First, if I took Ace hostage and demanded the fruit, I would automatically become an enemy of Whitebeard and his allies. It's not good to have enemies in the New World before I'm even there, and if it's Yonko, then it's a serious danger. Secondly, I doubt that I would have survived, who knows what the old man is capable of, maybe he would have killed me easily, but I would not have understood how it happened. Yet the strength of one of the emperors of the New World is not something that is easy to measure and calculate, especially Whitebeard, known as "The Strongest Man in the World." And thirdly, I just didn't want to do that, Ace is after all the son of the past Pirate King, and I really respect Gol D. Roger, it would be wrong of me to threaten the life of his son. So, the plan with Ace as a hostage was quickly abandoned, even at the stage of its formation.
Therefore, another plan was created in which no one would be particularly hurt, except Blackbeard, and possibly Thatch, if Titch wants to vent his anger on someone. A fight with Ace was not part of the plan, it was a spontaneous decision, so to speak. I wondered what he was capable of, but I was not impressed.
My knowledge of the canon helped me the most this time, knowledge of Sabo played a rather important role in getting the fruit. Well, then there was only Ace's brotherly love, and he simply could not reject the idea that Sabo might be alive. And my evidence was pretty good, he just could not help but believe. Of course, I have to give credit to the friendship of Thatch and Ace, it was very useful, even though I had not hoped for it, but it helped me. Of course, it was not without luck, I was lucky that Thatch had the fruit, and he himself was with Ace on Whitebeard's ship. All this allowed me to obtain it ... Yami Yami no Mi ...
The fruit looked quite ordinary, it did not evoke any sensations, unlike Uchuu Uchu, when I first found it on that altar. But appearances are deceiving, I know very well what the logic of darkness is capable of, it will be very useful to have it. I also hope that it was this fruit that allowed Blackbeard to take the powers of Gur Gur from Whitebeard, after all, it took away the powers of fruit, the ability of the highest rank.
Okay, it's time to eat it and experience the powers of darkness ...
