This is the miraculous power of the Dark-Dark Fruit!
He can absorb any attack and any building, then unleash them again!
However, Blackbeard Teach's attack ended there as well. Terrified, he immediately fled in panic—Blackbeard Teach is absolutely not the type to fight when the wind's against him!
The captain's style…
Often represents the entire ship's fighting style…
The Blackbeard Pirates are the same.
This crew has always liked to rely on their own strength to fight others, and with their power they can usually present a crushing advantage; yet once they run into an unfavorable battle or even a true disadvantage, this crew will immediately want to run and preserve their strength!
When a bunch of pirates saw their captain bolt first, the remaining crewmates simply dropped all hesitation and directly followed behind Blackbeard Teach, fleeing in a panic!
Akainu, all by himself, had beaten the entire Blackbeard Pirates so badly they were tumbling head over heels; a bunch of Navy immediately rode on his coattails, chasing after this crew from behind!
"Don't chase them…"
Akainu barked coldly to stop the group of Navy who wanted to pursue, and ordered in a deep voice, "Find out where Vegapunk is, fast. Get Vegapunk back!"
"Admiral Sakazuki…"
A Navy major looked at the wounds on Akainu's body and spoke softly, "Please get your injuries treated first. We've already sent people to continue searching for Dr. Vegapunk's whereabouts…"
"It's nothing serious…"
Akainu glanced at the cut on his own palm, casually tore off a scrap of cloth, and roughly wrapped it up. As for the wound on his shoulder, that was nothing to care about…
After all…
The bullets out at sea don't pack much punch…
Even if the bullets are coated in Armament Haki, it's just a small gunshot wound. After the mission is done, he can take his time bandaging it.
However…
Akainu soon received bad news.
Someone at the port had seen Vegapunk taken away by a ship from the Donquixote Pirates, and they had even left the port before the Navy and the Blackbeard Pirates clashed!
From the timing of it…
No matter what, they definitely couldn't catch up!
"Donflamingo…"
Akainu's eyes suddenly narrowed, a bulging vein of fury appeared on his forehead. While he was fighting the Blackbeard Pirates, that bastard had secretly kidnapped Vegapunk!
The warships on his side didn't have time to pursue them; Donflamingo was also one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea and a Former Heavenly Celestial Dragon, and Dressrosa was a World Government member nation…
If it were some other Navy officer…
At this time, they would probably just report up the chain…
"Send people to pursue them first."
Akainu raised his hand and asked his subordinate for a Radio Snail, then said coldly, "All warships are to set out and encircle and capture the Donquixote Pirates…"
Hit first…
Report later.
That's Akainu's style.
"Admiral Sakazuki…"
A Navy Colonel walked over and gently reminded him, "The battle over on Island No. 1 is extremely fierce. Should we really ignore Admiral Borsalino and Admiral Kagura?"
Island No. 1.
Akihara Kagura's fierce battle with the two Sea Emperors was still ongoing.
Hundred Beasts Kaido was fighting like he didn't care about his life, launching attack after attack at Akihara Kagura, their mighty Supreme King Haki clash sweeping across the entire island!
Everyone on the island had no choice but to withdraw from the battlefield, and even Katakuri and Kizaru, who had been clashing, had to pull back from Island No. 1!
Boom!
Hundred Beasts Kaido finally shattered the ice giant with a punch, countless shards of ice scattering to the ground, and Akihara Kagura's figure reformed from within the ice!
Charlotte Lingling also broke free of her restraints right then and there. A touch of madness appeared on her face; she couldn't even utter a full sentence, as if she had completely plunged into a frenzied state!
"Ma-hahaha…"
"Ma-hahahahaha…"
"Old hag, you all right?"
Hundred Beasts Kaido frowned as he looked at the eerily laughing Charlotte Lingling beside him, afraid this old friend would have an episode at a time like this!
"I'm going to kill him… ma-hahaha…"
Charlotte Lingling wore a crazed grin as she lunged straight at Akihara Kagura, the great sword Napoleon in her hand flashing with a sharp blade-glow!
Akihara Kagura's body instantly turned into light and shot up into the air. Looking down at the two Sea Emperors on the ground, his figure scattered directly in all directions, making it impossible to see where he was!
The air over Island No. 1 suddenly fell silent…
The weather and temperature slowly began to turn somewhat unfathomable!
One quarter of the area turned a bit frigid, so cold people were shivering, and snow began to drift gently down from the sky;
One quarter of the area turned a bit scorching, so hot it felt like the moisture in one's body was constantly evaporating, and in some places the ground even started to bubble with magma;
One quarter of the area was struck by thunderstorms; the storm clouds in the sky kept gathering, and bolts of lightning continuously struck down between heaven and earth, streaks of lightning wandering through the clouds;
One quarter of the area basked in blazing sunlight, so much so that people felt a pleasant warmth, as if this area was so comfortable they wanted to stay there forever…
"Ice…"
"Magma…"
"Thunder…"
"Light…"
One tall figure after another appeared out of thin air from the four directions, four natural elements converging in the four corners, and four Natural Type giants suddenly manifested!
"!!!"
Hundred Beasts Kaido's heart gave a jolt!
In that instant…
Hundred Beasts Kaido recalled his battle with Uchiha Madara!
Back in that fight, he and Charlotte Lingling had joined forces to smash Uchiha Madara's Susanoo, only to be surrounded by four Susanoo and beaten so badly they had no power to fight back…
