Zhutian: Countless me, join the chat group

"Hahaha, the world seems to be changing. I wonder who will win!"

Compared to Whitebeard, Blackbeard's feelings at this time were actually somewhat complicated.

The main issue is that, in his view, he genuinely doesn't know who won or lost this war.

In truth, Blackbeard actually hoped that Byakuya would win.

After all, Blackbeard and Whitebeard had a blood feud.

Having killed his crew, he had no chance of surviving, since what he had done was a sin that the Whitebeard Pirates could never forgive.

At this point, how could Whitebeard possibly allow himself to survive?!
But no matter what, Blackbeard still hoped that Byakuya would win.

The main reason is that Im killed his father. Back in God Valley, he witnessed firsthand how his father was corrupted by Im.

Blackbeard secretly vowed to avenge Rocks.

Of course, to avenge Rocks, one thing must be done: find the corresponding fruit.

Having seen the Devil Fruit encyclopedia, Blackbeard was well aware that if he rashly sought revenge, he would likely end up like Rocks.

That's why Blackbeard set his sights on the Dark-Dark Fruit at that time.

The three legendary fruits, only those three fruits can defeat Im.

After much deliberation, Blackbeard finally realized that if he could obtain the Dark-Dark Fruit, he could then carry out his subsequent plans.

That's why, even Byakuya and his group had to fight the World Government later on.

At that time, the choice before us was not to take action, because even if we obtained the Dark Fruit, we might not be able to accomplish what we wanted.

But the Dark Fruit was right in front of him.

If I don't want it, then what was the point of waiting all these years?!
I've waited so many years, wasn't it all for this one opportunity?!
If I were to waste this opportunity, that would be absolutely unacceptable to me.

So, thinking this way, coupled with his own ambition, Blackbeard had already made his decision in the end.

That is something I have to do.

Otherwise, you will definitely regret it.

After waiting for so many years, if I end up giving up on it, I'll definitely regret it later.

So even though Blackbeard knew he probably wouldn't gain anything by taking action, he still chose to act in the end.

However, he now knows that he has completely failed in this matter.

Putting everything else aside, given the current situation, Blackbeard knows very well that whether White Night or Im wins, it won't benefit him much.

Even though the two of them won, they couldn't survive, mainly because they were already losers.

A loser has no right to negotiate with the other party, just like I am now.

Even after his defeat, Blackbeard knew that even if Whitebeard lost, Whitebeard would never let him off the hook.

After all, he had done something unforgivable.

In this situation, I'm basically going to kill myself.

Even if Whitebeard didn't want to kill him, fine, but do you think the others would let him go?!
That is absolutely impossible!

Therefore, Blackbeard knew very well that no matter who won, it had nothing to do with him.

In the end, everyone will die anyway.

In fact, there is only one chance for me to survive, and that is to win. Although the probability of winning this round is very low, I certainly cannot give up this opportunity at this time.

Even for myself, the probability of failure is extremely high.

However, the main reason I did this was that I was unwilling to wait for so many years only to find that I had done nothing.

This is the thing he feels most unwilling to accept!
"No matter the outcome, it won't change your fate."

The white-bearded man spoke slowly.

He glanced at Blackbeard, his heart filled with complex emotions.

After all, how could they not know this?!
He knew, in fact, that Blackbeard's fate was unchangeable.

For some reason, Whitebeard really didn't know what to say.

After all, he still had some feelings for Blackbeard.

However, at this point, Whitebeard was also well aware that even though he had some feelings for Blackbeard, there was nothing he could do.

There are some things I absolutely cannot do. If I do them, then all those things I did before are just like farting!
So at this point, no matter what, there's absolutely nothing I can do about it.

Therefore, no matter what happens at this point, it cannot change Blackbeard's fate.

Blackbeard was aware of this as well; after all, he wasn't stupid, so how could he not see it?
The strange thing is that I didn't feel scared at this moment.

Although I feel a little regretful that my ambitions were not realized.

But I have to say, this really seems like an exaggerated thing to me.

After all, he had originally planned to do something, but now everything that has happened has made him not disappointed that his ambitions have not been fulfilled.

Even if his ambitions ultimately fail, it's all for the best for Blackbeard.

Because he also knew that he might indeed bring chaos to the world.

If I win and no one else can beat me, then it doesn't really matter.

After all, the strongest should dominate the weak, and Blackbeard has always thought this way for many years.

Moreover, the most important thing is that, although his ambition has failed, it at least means that the world should be a better place now.

"So why did you do that?!"

Whitebeard took a deep breath, and after hearing Blackbeard's words, he suddenly realized what was going on.

For Blackbeard, even if this matter failed, it didn't seem to matter much, but for Whitebeard, it was a bit hard to explain.

Could it be that.
Is it even possible for this guy to give up his own inner thoughts?!
If you really want to give up on this idea, then why did you do it in the first place?!
After all, wasn't that exactly what Blackbeard did before?!
But what was somewhat surprising was that Blackbeard gave up so easily?!

If you give up so easily!
Why would you do something so valuable?!
Having gone this far, Whitebeard, who had initially thought Blackbeard's resolve was unwavering, suddenly felt a sense of absurdity.

Judging from the current situation, wow... are they just going to give up so easily?!

If you give up so easily, that's just...
Why did we do that before?!

After all, he had no other thoughts about this matter, which was the one thing Whitebeard couldn't understand the most.

Judging from the current situation, Blackbeard doesn't seem to care much about this matter.

But why did they do that before?!

If Blackbeard has already given up on this matter, then why did he do those things in the first place?!
"Hahaha, this is the last of the three eras! The opportunity is right in front of me, how could I, your old man, not cherish it?!"

Devil Fruits choose their masters. Since I ate it, it means the Dark-Dark Fruit chose me, not Thatch!

Blackbeard was actually quite aware of this as well.

The main reason I did that was because the Dark Fruit was right in front of me, which presented me with an opportunity.

If I didn't want this opportunity, why did the Dark-Dark Fruit appear in front of me? After waiting for so long, why did the Dark-Dark Fruit have to appear at this moment?

Even Sachi didn't know what kind of fruit he was holding; he only knew that it was a Devil Fruit.

As for what specific Devil Fruit it is, there's no definitive answer. Since they don't know and aren't sure whether they should eat it or not, Blackbeard is bound to make a move.

He didn't have time to wait for Satch's final decision.

He didn't want to put the choice in Thatch's hands either. The Whitebeard Pirates' ironclad rule was that whoever got it, kept it.

So Blackbeard naturally took action at that time.

Wouldn't it be foolish to leave something unused right in front of you?!
Right now, how could Whitebeard not understand what Blackbeard meant by all this?!

Even if we put aside other perspectives, Blackbeard really does resemble a pirate, and also quite like Rocks. The opportunity is right in front of him, but if Blackbeard doesn't cherish it...

He'll probably regret this terribly.

So now that Blackbeard has done this, then naturally we should do it too.

It would be a shame not to do it.

Just like Blackbeard said, the opportunity is right in front of him, and if he doesn't act now, then it's really hard to say what will happen.

So putting aside one's stance, Blackbeard's actions are actually perfectly reasonable.

However, one cannot simply abandon one's stance.

"Dad, you don't need to dwell on it so much. It's all about the winner and the loser. Since I've already done it, I have no regrets!"

Blackbeard also noticed Whitebeard's inner conflict.

Now, I realize that I went too far in this matter.

Moreover, Blackbeard had already made up his mind long ago.

The reason is that Blackbeard is experiencing something more desperate now compared to before.

Given the circumstances depicted in the original manga, Blackbeard might still have a chance to turn the tables.

But right now, Blackbeard has absolutely no hope of turning the tide.

Since that's the case, I have no other thoughts at this point.

Besides, Im should be taken out by now.

Looking at it that way, it seems pretty good!
After all, if even Byakuya couldn't beat Im, then it was unlikely that he could either. He couldn't even beat the Whitebeard Pirates, let alone Im.

Then if Bai Ye wins against Im, then at least he will have avenged his father's death, even though he didn't do it himself. But if it were Bai Ye, that guy would have done it.

It doesn't seem like it's unacceptable.

After all, Byakuya was a former member of the Rocks Pirates, which Blackbeard could hardly accept.

Therefore, Blackbeard's idea at this point wasn't really a big problem.

"Tikki!"

Whitebeard's eyes flashed, but he ultimately said nothing.

Even though it was his own child, and even though Whitebeard still felt a little affection for him at this moment, he knew very well that he could not possibly protect Teach this time.

Ace was unconscious due to his battle with Teach. Whitebeard had seen that Ace was no match for Teach before.

Whether it's Ace's serious injury or Thatch's death, Blackbeard needs to pay the price for it, instead of letting it all end with just a few words.

Looking towards the Holy Land, Whitebeard suddenly felt a sense of anticipation, wondering who had won.

I bet those guys from the Golden Lion gang already know about this, right?
After all, Golden Lion and his group were the closest to that place, so they naturally knew what had happened there.

On the holy land.

At that moment, the golden lion stared wide-eyed at the flower-filled area.

After seeing the situation over there, things are becoming increasingly clear to him.

When he saw the person coming out, the Golden Lion grinned, it seemed that he had made the right bet this time.

The person who came was Bai Ye!
"Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh! How about it?! Got them all taken care of?!"

The golden lion was overjoyed, even though he had been very confident in Bai Ye before.

However, before this matter is completely settled, I am actually a little worried that something unexpected might happen over there.

But now it seems that Bai Ye has won. If Bai Ye came, it means that the matter over there has been completely resolved.

So after this matter was completely settled.

This was naturally excellent for the Golden Lions.

And most importantly, Bai Ye won. Everything they said before has now become a reality, instead of just being wishful thinking. (End of Chapter)
