The navy personnel left on the ship didn't dare to attack the two men, or even speak to them. They only started discussing the matter after the two men left.

As for Reyner's bounty, after the Mary Geoise incident, it has increased from the original amount to 1.3 billion.

"Who goes there?" When Reina and Hansen arrived in town, all they saw were corpses covered in white sheets and the navy personnel who had come to investigate.

Reina ignored the marines and went directly to the corpses covered with white sheets. After examining them briefly, he shook his head and said to Hansen, "These people are all ordinary people. They were basically killed with a single blow and had no ability to resist, so it's hard to tell if Teach did it!"

Seeing Reina and his companion's disregard for the Navy, a Navy soldier immediately raised his weapon in anger and shouted at Reina, "Who are you people?"

Before Reina could speak, a Marine captain wearing a cloak of justice stopped his subordinate and said to Reina, "The vice-captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, Akame Reina... What brings such a big shot like you here?"

“I’m tracking a pirate, and I heard that the Blackbeard Pirates wiped him out, so I came to see if I could find any clues! How did you know that the Blackbeard Pirates did this?” Reina slowly stood up and asked the colonel.

"We found a survivor who overheard the pirates calling their captain Captain Blackbeard Teach, so that's how we learned the name!" The Marine said, shielding his subordinate who had just raised his weapon behind him.

"Can I see the survivor?" Reina nodded and asked.

"No! Besides, you're a pirate too, a big pirate with a bounty of over a billion. How can you just appear in front of us so openly? Isn't that a huge disregard for our Navy?" the Navy captain said softly.

Hansen, who had been standing behind Reiner, slowly stepped forward after hearing the Navy's words, drew his weapon, and said, "Hand over the survivors... or die!"

Although his strength is not what it used to be, he still has no problem dealing with some of the navy's grunts.

Faced with the powerful Hansen, everyone on the Navy side except for the captain took a step back.

Perhaps because of his terrible performance, a sergeant raised his weapon and shouted at Reina and Hansen, "Don't be afraid, there are only two of them! Attack together!"

However, the colonel standing at the front stopped his subordinates, saying, "Numbers are useless against such a strong opponent!"

“You did a wise thing!” Hansen grinned and said after hearing the other person’s words.

“However, bowing down to pirates like this is not in line with my sense of justice… so…” the colonel said, drawing his sword as he spoke, “Defeat me and you can take the survivors with you, otherwise… come with me to Impel Down!”

"Imperial City... I'm afraid they wouldn't dare send me there!" Reina smiled slightly, took a step forward, and his aura began to rise.

Sensing the aura emanating from Reina, the naval captain's expression grew increasingly grim. He knew he couldn't wait any longer, otherwise... he feared he would lose the courage to make a move.

"Take this!" The naval captain raised his longsword and charged directly at Reina.

However, Reina did not dodge; he simply raised his hand and caught the opponent's longsword.

"This... how is this possible?" The colonel seemed somewhat incredulous as he watched Reina easily grab his longsword, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't take the sword away. So he simply abandoned the sword, turned around, and kicked Reina.

"Oh!"

The kick that landed on Reina felt like kicking cotton; it had no impact whatsoever. But just as he was about to do it again, a punch suddenly landed on his stomach.

"Ugh... How could this be..."

Watching the naval captain slowly fall, Reina smiled and said, "As a reward for your courage, your life will be spared!"

"Colonel!"

Seeing the colonel fall to the ground with a single blow, the naval soldiers were anxious, but dared not step forward.

"Alright, as agreed, bring your investigation report and the survivors over!" Reina tossed the unconscious naval captain to the naval soldiers and said softly.

"Bastard..." The surrounding soldiers wanted to say something more, but were stopped by an officer.

"Bring the survivors here, and leave the investigation report behind. Let's go!" After saying that, he ordered the soldiers around him to take the colonel away first, while he stayed behind with a squad of soldiers.

But Reina and Hansen ignored him and went straight to the survivor.

“Tell me… what did you see?” Reina asked, approaching the survivor.

"Who...who are you?" asked Hansen, a survivor dressed in naval uniform, looking at Reina.

"You don't need to know these things. Just tell me what you saw!" Hansen said expressionlessly before Reina could even speak.

"Phew~ A few days ago, I was patrolling the island as usual..." The surviving navy officer thought for a moment and then told what he had seen, saying, "Those three pirates killed people as soon as they landed on the island without saying a word. Even though the villagers had said they would hand over all their treasure, they acted as if they hadn't heard them and killed anyone they saw!"

“Three? One of them is a slightly overweight guy with a full beard?” Reina asked, frowning slightly.

"No, one of them was tall, one was thin but very tall, and the last one looked like he was about to die. There was no one with a full beard like you described! But I heard from their conversation that they called themselves the Blackbeard Pirates, and their captain, Blackbeard, seemed to have some plan to carry out and was waiting for them somewhere!" the surviving Marine said softly.

Reina and Hansen exchanged a glance, noticing the surprise in each other's eyes.

Teach has actually formed his own pirate crew, and it seems he's planning something.

But just as Reina was about to ask more questions, the survivor dressed in naval uniform suddenly opened his mouth and exhaled a breath at Reina, while simultaneously thrusting a dagger hidden in his hand directly at Reina.

"Reina!" By the time Hansen noticed, the dagger was already plunged into Reina's heart.

"Bastard!" Hansen kicked at the survivor, but the survivor dodged nimbly, and Reina also fell down.

"Hahaha... It seems the captain's information was indeed correct. This gas can temporarily nullify your abilities!" The survivor, who was originally seriously injured, suddenly laughed and said to the fallen Reina.

"Reina, are you alright! You bastard, who are you?" Hansen helped Reina up and roared angrily at the naval survivors.

"It's obvious... he's a member of the Blackbeard Pirates! Cough cough... I didn't expect Teach to know my weakness! Where is he? Tell him to come out!" Reina said weakly, clutching his wound.

The remaining navy personnel were stunned by this turn of events; they had no idea what had happened.

"Chirp chirp chirp... As expected of Akame Reina! Now that you know our identities, you should also know that you have nowhere to escape today!" Two people slowly walked out of the house on the side, one tall and the other thin but tall.

Hansen was completely taken aback by the sudden appearance of the two people; they hadn't expected that the two were actually waiting for them there.

"Where's Teach? Is he too afraid to come out and see me?" Reina asked as he slowly stood up with Hansen's help.

"We don't even need the captain to deal with you. Our captain... is dealing with Whitebeard right now! Chirp chirp chirp..." the tall man said with a strange laugh.

It was only then that Reina realized that the other person was wearing a ridiculous lizard headgear, making it impossible to see their true appearance.

"I see... I didn't expect Teach to be so bold. You three alone want to kill me?" Reina was injured, but he didn't seem afraid.

"The three of us are enough! Akame Reina... we'll accept your ability! Chirp chirp chirp chirp..." The words spoken by the person wearing the lizard headgear startled Reina. Could it be that Teach already knew the secret of Devil Fruits and possessed the ability to absorb other people's fruits at this time?

But isn't that something he can only use after acquiring the Dark-Dark Fruit? And Teach should know that Reina isn't a Devil Fruit user! Is there something he doesn't know?

"Reina, you go first, leave this to me!" Hansen said, stepping in front of Reina as he saw that the three men had surrounded them.

"What nonsense are you talking about? When did I ever need your protection? Cough cough..." Reina spoke as he tried to step forward, but it seemed to aggravate his wound, causing him to cough violently.

“Red-Eyes Reina! You don’t need to pretend anymore. The captain has already told us your weakness. As long as you smell this gas, your ability will temporarily disappear, right? Now you can’t use your ability, can you? Hahaha…” The surviving Marine took out a small bottle and laughed loudly.

Chapter 205 The Tricky Ability User

Upon hearing the other party's words, Hansen's expression shifted, and he secretly glanced at Reina behind him. Sure enough, he saw Reina. Although Reina looked somewhat weak, there was no blood flowing from the place where he had been stabbed by the dagger.

Moreover, based on his understanding of Reina, if he had really fallen for their scheme, he would probably have already started thinking about escaping by now, and would definitely not be here constantly asking Teach about things.

Knowing that Reina was alright, Hansen finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, since Reina wanted to put on an act, he would definitely play along. The Whitebeard Pirates might not have much else, but they certainly had a lot of drama queens.

“I didn’t expect Teach to even know about something like this! Reina, what do we do now?” Hansen asked softly, protecting Reina.

He was explaining to Reina that he was aware of his condition and asking how to cooperate.

"Help me stall for time. Once I recover, I'll take them down! Then I'll go back and cause trouble for Teach!" Reina replied directly.

"Chirp chirp chirp chirp... You think this piece of trash can hold us back? Don't be ridiculous! Everyone... let's make our move!" The man wearing the lizard head mask pointed at Reina and said with a loud laugh.

The slender man was the first to move. He lowered his body slightly, and then with a "whoosh," he suddenly disappeared.

"So fast!"

When the other party came up to Reina, neither Hansen nor Reina reacted in time.

"Bang!" The thin man kicked Reina, sending him flying towards the man wearing the lizard headgear.

"So now... do you still think you can escape?" Reina, who had fallen to the ground, was stomped on by the man in the lizard head mask, and asked.

"Damn it, let go of Reina!" Hansen drew his knife and stepped forward, but before he could take a few steps, he was blocked by the skinny man again.

"Chirp chirp chirp... If you want it... I'll give it back to you!" The man wearing the lizard headgear kicked Reina next to Hansen and said with a loud laugh.

"Hey... Gamenio, now that you've succeeded, hurry up and finish them off! The captain is waiting for our news!" Over there, the survivor dressed in naval uniform suddenly changed his form and became another person.

"The Imitation Fruit?" Reina, who was slowly struggling to get up from the ground, said in surprise when he saw that the other party had turned into a different person.

"The Imitation Fruit? No, no, no... The fruit I ate is called the Transformation Fruit!" The Blackbeard Pirates member, who had previously disguised himself as a survivor, shook his finger and said with a smile, "I can transform into anything I imagine, which is much better than the Imitation Fruit."

"Sharingan...activate!" Just then, the man wearing a lizard headgear suddenly spoke up.

Then, something unbelievable happened to Reina and Hansen: through the eye holes of the lizard headgear, they clearly saw that each other's eyes had transformed into Sharingan eyes.

"How is this possible?" Hansen exclaimed in disbelief.

"Nothing is impossible! I'm a Copy-Copy Fruit user. Whatever I touch, whether it's a person or an object, I can copy its abilities, even Devil Fruit powers!" Gamenio, wearing a lizard mask, laughed loudly. "So this is your Akame's ability! Impressive! *Chirp chirp chirp chirp*..."

"There really is such an absurd Devil Fruit ability?" Reina was genuinely shocked. He had only heard about this kind of Devil Fruit from his friends in his previous life. If such a Devil Fruit existed, wouldn't it make one invincible?

However, he soon realized something was wrong. The other party had indeed activated the Sharingan, but it was only a single-tomoe Sharingan, not his Mangekyou Sharingan.

If the other party also has a kaleidoscope, then that would be really bad.

Reina estimates that all three of the opponents are Devil Fruit users. The skinny guy from before was unusually fast, so he must have some kind of speed-type Devil Fruit ability. The most important thing to deal with now is him and the Copy-Copy Fruit user.

As for that guy who has a similar ability to the Imitation Fruit, his fighting power shouldn't be that strong.

"What do we do now?" Hansen asked, bypassing the other person and coming to Reina's side.

"Let's go first, and we'll talk again when my abilities recover!" Reina glanced at the slender speed-type ability user and said softly.

"Hahaha...Trying to leave? Too late!" Sure enough, the slender speed-type ability user disappeared again after hearing Reina's words.

Upon noticing the other party charging towards him, Reina's lips curled into a slight smile.

"Sani, watch out!" But at that moment, Gamenio, who had copied Reina's ability and possessed the Sharingan, suddenly shouted a warning.

"Oh!"

The slender speed-type ability user, Sani, had already kicked Reina again, but contrary to his expectations, Reina was not kicked away again. Instead, he stood still, as if he had not been hit at all.

“We’ve been playing this game for so long… it’s time to end it! Since Teach isn’t here… you’re all worthless now!” Reina slowly raised his head, his eyes now transformed into the three-tomoe Sharingan, and said with a smile.

"what!"

Seeing this, Sani knew something was wrong and was about to leave when Reina punched him in the face, knocking him into the ground.

"You had a good time kicking me, didn't you? You really think you can take on me?" Reina said, as he pulled out a dagger from his body and plunged it into Sani's hand on the ground, pinning him to the ground.

"You're not injured? And your abilities haven't disappeared?" Kadreik, the user of the Transformation Fruit, exclaimed in surprise when he saw that there was no blood on Reina's eyes and the dagger he had drawn.

"You think you can hurt me?" Reina said disdainfully.

"As expected of the great pirate Akame Reina! It seems that the information Captain Teach gave him was also deliberately leaked to him by you!" Gamenio said softly.
