The most courageous pirate hunter

the other side.

Let's turn back time a little bit.

The entire Blackbeard Pirates appeared out of thin air and fell to the ground, each of them pale and spitting blood, until finally Van Augur appeared, his face as pale as paper.

Because he had to teleport everyone else away first, he was always the last one to leave, which resulted in him suffering more damage. They hadn't had a proper rest during this period of being chased by the Hunter King and were already injured. This time, Van Augur's physical condition was even worse.

It was a double blow, both physically and mentally.

"Hehehe~"

"They escaped again."

Blackbeard, though still shaken, didn't show much gloom on his face. He had already obtained the Ton-Ton Fruit, and given some time to adapt and develop it, how many punches could the mere King of Hunters withstand?

"Admiral, let's retreat!"

"That wretched Jormungandr seems to know what we're after."

Die Mei looked wary.

Jormungandr is really too weird. It seems he knew that the Admiral could eat a second Devil Fruit, so he secretly helped them find Machbis.

"Yes."

"Let's avoid their sharp edge for now."

"The admiral has acquired a second ability; it's only a matter of time before we reclaim everything that belongs to us."

The tyrannical king and his associates were full of confidence.

There are people in this world who can possess two Devil Fruit abilities; they are truly chosen ones. Given time, the entire world will submit to them.

have to say.

When Blackbeard successfully acquired the Ton-Ton Fruit, this group, each with their own ulterior motives, truly began to unite. Had Blackbeard failed before, the Blackbeard Pirates might have disbanded on the spot.

Just as everyone was fantasizing about their future grand ambitions, a terrifying aura surged forth.

"Damn it."

"How could it be so fast?"

"Run away."

Everyone woke up with a start and looked at the white dot on the horizon, which was rushing towards them at an extremely fast speed. It would only take eight or nine breaths to reach them, and it was practically within reach.

"Why didn't you detect it with your Observation Haki?"

"Damn it, Jormungandr held back during their previous pursuit."

"That despicable and shameless beast."

"It's too late, Van Auger, hurry."

Die Mei's voice cracked, her ugly face filled with terror.

Because the Hunter King arrived so quickly, at a speed completely different from when he chased them before, and their Observation Haki couldn't detect his presence in advance. If it weren't for the fact that he was close enough to be seen with the naked eye, and the sonic boom generated by his super-fast flight, they really wouldn't have been able to detect him.

It wasn't like this before.

In the past, when chasing someone, one could detect the other's presence from a distance using Observation Haki, but now they're almost right in front of you.

Now we can only rely on Van Augur's teleportation.

As for risking everything?

Don't make trouble.

They were all injured and exhausted. It was estimated that Jormungandr would knock them all down with a three-hit combo, so they had no choice but to hide and find a quiet place to recuperate.

"Hurry up!!!"

The sound of something piercing the eardrum arrived in an instant.

The sunlight lost its luster.

What appeared to Blackbeard and his crew was an oval-shaped object that grew larger and larger as it flew. They were fortunate enough to experience it; it was a bomb far ahead of its time.

He's called a little boy, or rather, the first generation.

boom! ! !

A mushroom cloud rose up, billowing smoke and flames swept across the surroundings, but the Blackbeard Pirates disappeared one by one. Hermes did not stop, but turned around and chased after them in the other direction.

The all-weather Observation Haki has already detected the other party's presence.

Fortunately, Van Augur's teleportation distance wasn't too exaggerated, remaining within Hermes' Observation Haki range, which is good news. Now, the battle between the two sides is about who will exhaust themselves first.

Van Auk's condition is clearly very bad.

Hermes, on the other hand, has the ability to recover his life force and his regenerative abilities are more than enough for Hermes to hunt him down for months.

In short, as long as Van Augur is not given a chance to catch up, it's only a matter of time before they catch up with the Blackbeard Pirates.

But the time to reap the rewards had come, and the fruits of their labor were within reach. Hermes didn't want to wait a moment longer, so he immediately took out a Den Den Mushi and began to notify Burgess and the others.

They could try their luck by distributing their forces in different directions; even delaying him by a second would allow him to get Blackbeard a second earlier.

For a while.

The imperial organization mobilized its entire force.

the next day.

News of the Blackbeard Pirates' attack on Donquixote Doflamingo, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, in Dressrosa, and the appearance of the Hunter King, was published in the newspapers.

It once attracted a lot of attention.

Everyone knew that the Blackbeard Pirates were on the run, but no one expected that they would dare to attack a Shichibukai while on the run. They truly deserve to be called one of the Four Emperors.

However, there are also rumors that Doflamingo made Blackbeard suffer a loss.

Regardless, Blackbeard and Doflamingo have certainly gained some fame.

As for the King of Hunters, his reputation has already reached its peak, so the fact that he hasn't been able to capture Blackbeard after chasing him for so long has actually increased Blackbeard's fame.

But this only reinforces the fact that the Hunter King is superior to the Four Emperors.

That's why the Four Emperors have lost their prestige; they used to be in the first tier, but now they're in the second tier.

Hancock and Moria also arrived in Dressrosa one after another, but it was too late. However, Doflamingo did not neglect them and treated them well.

The fact that both of them came means that their cooperation is very solid.

This is good news.

This demonstrates that the three parties can rely on each other in the short term, showing strong ally strength.

When Hancock learned that Jormungandr had also appeared, she was somewhat alarmed, secretly relieved that she had arrived late and hadn't encountered him; otherwise, that bastard might have attacked her.

Chapter 341 [Making Threats]

"Have you heard? Monarch is currently hunting down the Blackbeard Pirates, and it's not just the Hunter King who's making moves."

"Sigh... Even a powerful Yonko can only be like a stray dog ​​when facing the behemoth that is Monarchy. Blackbeard Marshall Teach must be the unluckiest of the Yonko!"

"Who can argue with that? He just became one of the Four Emperors and was already being hunted down by the most courageous man in the world. I wonder how he got involved with that mythical man."

"It is said that the Blackbeard Pirates have fled to the first half of the Grand Line."

"You really travel all over the world!"

It has been half a month since the Dressrosa incident.

The seas have been relatively calm for the past two weeks, with the Beast Pirates, Big Mom Pirates, and the Marines all working to take over the territory left behind by the Blackbeard Pirates.

Whitebeard is still in the sixth level of the new Impel Down, the Infinite Hell, and it's unknown whether he's dead or alive.

The revolutionary army is outwitting and outmaneuvering the world government.

Supernovas, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and the new generation are all writing their own legends, but the most attention is focused on the Monarch organization's pursuit of the Four Emperors' Blackbeard Pirates.

They have been hunting him from the New World to the first half of the Grand Line, and it's not just the Hunter King who's hunting him; the fighting champion of the Monarch organization and the Cube Man are also on the hunt.

Therefore, the Blackbeard Pirates are in a very difficult situation.

"Admiral, Van Augur has reached his limit!"

On an island relatively close to the Sabaody Archipelago, Demi looked wearily at Van Augur, whose eyes were sunken and whose body was completely drained and terminally ill. He was in even worse condition than Doc Q, who was always on the verge of death.

After months of running and fleeing for his life, with no time to rest and catch his breath, coupled with frequent use of his abilities and pre-existing injuries, his body was on the verge of collapse.

Like a candle flame in the wind, it could be extinguished at any moment.

If Van Auger falls, they'll be in danger. They won't even be able to escape at a critical moment, especially since everyone is out of sorts. They desperately need to rest and can't keep running around like this.

"damn it."

"If Van Auger can't hold on, then we..."

Everyone's face looked ugly.

"How does that bitch Jormungandr always know our location so clearly?"
