The most courageous pirate hunter

I have absolutely no idea what Blackbeard is thinking.

"Admiral, there's no time for nonsense."

"That beast Jormungandr could appear at any moment, so we'd better hurry!"

Shiryu's temper.

He drew his long sword from his waist, a cigar dangling from his mouth, and became menacing. Why waste so much breath on a mere Shichibukai? Just finish him off quickly.

"It's meow."

The tyrannical king was even more direct, exploding under his feet and rushing out.

"Hey! Hey! Hey! You have no manners at all."

"The sooner we resolve this, the sooner we can leave."

Lafitte said that Shiliu and the tyrannical king lacked manners, but they rushed out quickly, and Catherine even went straight into her beast form, going all out from the start.

Because they really don't have much time left.

Seeing his men rush out one by one, Blackbeard felt somewhat embarrassed and immediately made his move as well, his right hand burning with thick black mist as he slammed it against the ground.

"Hidden acupoints".

A moment.

The cloudless sky turned pitch black, and the entire King's Highlands was shrouded in darkness.

"Damn it."

"Blackbeard, you don't think you can be arrogant just because you've become one of the Four Emperors, do you? You're courting death."

"Make your move and take them down."

Doflamingo flew into a rage, unleashing his Conqueror's Haki like a raging river, and countless bolts of lightning began to spread across the sky, making the apocalyptic darkness even more terrifying.

For a while.

Torrepol and his men also began to take action.

The entire King's Highlands descended into chaos in an instant. The Donquixote Family was completely defeated in the first exchange. Even though Hermes had spurred them on and they had worked hard in recent years, they were still far inferior to Shiryu of the Rain and his group.

"Dark Water."

The terrifying gravity struck, and Doflamingo, who had already awakened, changed his expression and flew uncontrollably toward Blackbeard. No matter how quickly he reacted, the threads of the ground coiled into spikes, covered in Armament Haki, and fiercely stabbed at Blackbeard first.

“Jote”.

Blackbeard's eyelids twitched.

Before he could catch his opponent, the Dark-Dark Fruit couldn't suppress the Devil Fruit's power. He couldn't just stand still and take the hit; the attack was terrifying.

To avoid getting pricked like a hedgehog, you must either dodge or have someone block your way.

Fortunately, the big wine maker, Basque Chote, had not yet made a move and was still drinking from his large wine jug.

"boom!!!"

In the nick of time, Jot appeared on the left in a flash, his large sake bottle covered in Armament Haki, forming an indestructible barrier that firmly blocked Doflamingo's fatal attack.

At the moment of contact.

Chote looked pained. Even with Armament Haki covering his face, the large wine jug was pierced through, and the wine inside sprayed all over the ground. A sharp thread even pierced through his shoulder.

If you hadn't dodged quickly, your heart would have been pierced.

"Ha ha ha~ I underestimated you."

"But you've already lost."

Blackbeard's pupils contracted when he saw that Jot was injured.

He seems to have underestimated Doflamingo's strength; even Jotaro was no match for him.

Little did people know that in one-on-one combat, Doflamingo was truly not afraid of anyone in the Blackbeard Pirates. During that period, he had made a great comeback, and his strength was no longer what it used to be.

It wasn't like in the original story where they were written out of the story and didn't receive the "Seven Warlords buff".

I'm not exaggerating.

Even if it's one of the Four Emperors or an Admiral, Doflamingo dares to go head-to-head with them. Although he might lose by a few moves, he'll definitely survive. That's the source of Doflamingo's confidence and strength.

However, Blackbeard's abilities were too unpredictable, and Doflamingo was unaware of them. Furthermore, with Jotaro interfering, Blackbeard essentially lost the initiative.

Chapter 337 [The Twist Was Too Quick]

"how come!"

An uncontrollable gravitational force forcibly pulled Doflamingo to Blackbeard's side. The moment they made contact, Doflamingo's expression changed drastically; he could no longer sense the presence of the String-String Fruit.

The ability can no longer be used.

"Hehehe~"

"This is the most vicious ability in the world."

Blackbeard laughed wildly, feeling confident of victory. This finally dispelled some of the gloom of the past few days and brought a touch of joy to his depressed mood. He believed that as long as he obtained the Ton-Ton Fruit, he could completely turn the tables on Jormungandr.

He has seen hope.

puff! ! !

With a single punch, Doflamingo bent over, veins bulging on his neck, and uncontrollably spit out a spurt of blood. But Doflamingo was no ordinary man.

"you wanna die."

Doflamingo unleashed his overwhelming Conqueror's Haki, charging at close range towards Blackbeard. At that moment, Blackbeard's pupils contracted. Most importantly, Doflamingo launched a counterattack, his pointed shoes wreathed in Armament Haki, with black and red lightning crackling across them.

This is a Conqueror's Haki entangling.

To reiterate, the Dark-Dark Fruit can only suppress the abilities of Devil Fruits; it cannot render the user powerless like seawater and Seastone can. Most importantly, Doflamingo possesses exceptional physical prowess.

A huge roar was heard.

Doflamingo, his face contorted with rage, swung a kick at Blackbeard's head. Blackbeard reacted quickly, raising his hand to intercept, but the force was too powerful, resulting in a significant recoil. Even with the Dark-Dark Fruit absorbing the damage, Blackbeard was still struck hard.

At the critical moment, Doflamingo struck again, simultaneously stabbing Blackbeard's eyes and throat with both hands, still imbued with Conqueror's Haki.

boom! ! !

The entire King's Heights trembled. Blackbeard was no ordinary man; he immediately threw Doflamingo to the ground with force, while simultaneously leaning back to dodge the two deadly attacks.

"Damn it, it hurts so much."

Blackbeard shook his head, his eyes still showing lingering fear.

If he hadn't reacted quickly, he probably would have been defeated in a last-minute comeback.

"Conqueror's Haki is really annoying; you can even use it to entangle me."

Looking at Doflamingo standing up in the distance, he reached out and placed his hand on his chest, where five threads were constantly moving, treating the injury caused by Blackbeard's punch earlier.

The collision just now made Doflamingo realize that as long as he wasn't caught by his opponent, he wouldn't lose his ability.

A duel between masters is not only about lethality, defense, and recovery, but also about reaction and insight. Only by understanding the opponent's abilities and fighting style in the shortest time can one better deal with them.

"Fufufu~"

“Blackbeard, if it were a few years ago, I might have been wary of you, but now you will only die by my hand.”

"Because you have no idea what I've been through and how much I've paid for it. But I should also thank the pressure during that time, which forced me to become stronger and I unexpectedly mastered Conqueror's Haki."

Doflamingo grinned maliciously.

The ground around him was once again filamentated, and black and red lightning bolts rained down from the sky, making Doflamingo appear exceptionally imposing.

The presence of Conqueror's Haki made his attacks even more powerful.

He had already stood up long ago.

"Hehehe~"

Blackbeard looked very unwell.

He truly hadn't expected Doflamingo to be so strong. You have to know that only top-tier powerhouses can control Conqueror's Haki, and it's extremely rare. In addition, Doflamingo's physical skills were beyond his imagination.

I thought he was an easy target.

However, looking at other battlefields, the advantage still lies with the Blackbeard Pirates.

"I admit I underestimated you, but you're destined to lose this time."

"liberation."

Blackbeard's hands were as black as ink. He suddenly opened them and a black tornado appeared around his body, spewing out a large amount of debris and rubble, which rained down on Doflamingo.

All he needs to do is stall Doflamingo.

Doflamingo's face was grim. He had naturally noticed the setbacks on other battlefields as well. Trebol and his group were at a disadvantage against the attacks of Shiryu of the Rain and others.

Given enough time, they are very likely to lose.

However, it is wishful thinking for the Blackbeard Pirates to defeat them in a short period of time.
