Chapter 155: Not my problem
"Oh! He is still standing." Ussop and others looked back at him. He was heavily injured, but he was still there. No wonder in the original fight he was fine even after getting hit by the 'flame emperor' move from Ace and delivering him to the Navy.
Ken jumped from the boat and landed right near him. Luffy wanted to go, but Sanji came forward and said
"This is between him and Ken. He must be left to Ace." Sanji reminded. Though they would love to capture him, Sanji knew that if they did so, it would be quite disrespectful to Ace, and he was sure that Ken knew it too. Luffy wanted to say something but stopped. It was related to a man's dignity.
"Punisher Kenny.... Jehahahah... You have been hiding your true powers from the government. Jehahahaha... *cough*." Blackbeard said. He was hardly able to talk but laughed at Ken.
"Marshall D. Teach The government also doesn't know of your plans, or else you would have been the first to be executed." Ken replied with the same sarcasm.
"Oh, you know about me? I am honored." Teach said.
"You are someone my brother is hunting for. So in a way, I can't touch you, and in fact, a part of me wants to see both of you fight. I want to see how your plans get heavily crushed by my brother." Ken said.
"Brother... *cough*.. Who?" Blackbeard asked.
"Ace," Ken replied.
"White eye? Jehahahaha.... No wonder your eyes are different. I am not wrong; another brother of yours assaulted my team a few hours ago. Right? I remember Commander Ace spoke of multiple brothers." Blackbeard asked as he looked dead in Ken's eyes.
Ken's eyes didn't even blink, but in his mind, he was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this ugly guy would be able to predict that it was one of his brothers who assaulted his crew so badly. He just was little off in his prediction. The guy who assaulted them was Ken hismelf.
"Your silence means yes... I wonder if it's your captain... Your Captain, really have very weird eyes.." Blackbeard said as he slowly started walking towards him. Ken didn't bother to reply and wanted to see what this guy's plan was.
He slowly came inches near Ken. Luffy and others slowly got serious. Luffy was ready to jump forward if he saw anything amiss. Ussop had slowly charged his arrow. Sanji, who had stopped Luffy before, had his feet warm at the moment and was ready to spit fire. Zoro touched his sword.
"When I met Ace, he was quite confident. He thought he could kill our father," Blackbeard said.
"He thought he was all powerful because of his Devil Fruit... And just like him, you think you are all powerful because of your devil fruit." The moment he said that, the half-dead Blackbeard seemed to get a new lease on life and caught the hand of Ken, who had been looking at him stoically.
Well, at least that's what Blackbeard felt. The hand he touched wasn't Ken's at all, but the small gravity push he was experiencing.
"Jehahaha... Eh?!"
"We both have observation haki. Did you think it would be that easy?" Ken replied and then said:
"Shinra Tensei."
This time Blackbeard wasn't put to the ground but was thrown away horizontally at extreme speed. So fast and so heavily that the trees got destroyed in its path as he was thrown back. It was just like the time when seven-tails fought against Pain. This time the subject is Blackbeard himself.
Blackbeard was thrown into the forest, where everything was in rubble after the trees fell due to the push. Ken just looked at the small, destroyed forest for one last moment and flew to the ship.
"Ken, you need to teach me this move." Luffy shouted. Luffy's eyes were shining, seeing how cool his move was.
"You can do it yourself." Ken replied. Caroo was given a hint, and he started pulling the ship onto Bifrost once more.
"Ken, is it okay to leave this guy like that?" Robin asked, as she was a bit concerned. She could tell that this guy was very cunning, and he might pull up some things later.
"He is fine. Though I would love to play with him some more, he is up for Ace to catch. I have faith in him." Ken replied. No matter what, Ace was even more powerful now with his magic. Even if he lost his Devil Fruit powers, his magical powers would make sure that he survived.
That guy needs to be taught a lesson. He had been running around too much, and having gained Neji's powers over the years, he felt like he could see through every person's weak points. Let him suffer for a bit.
Robin didn't say anything and just looked around like the others. The crew members didn't really care about Blackbeard that much. This guy was Ace's problem, and Ken went for him because this guy came after their heads.
"What was he talking about when he talked about another brother assaulting him? Was it you?" Nami asked as he remembered how Ken had worn a weird dress before and flown away. Ken nodded his head.
"You seem like you have some kind of feud with him." Vivi asked confusedly why he was a little angry towards this guy. Though this guy murdered his own commander in cold blood, that had nothing to do with them.
"He is just hateful. I don't like his teeth." Ken replied. Nami rolled her eyes at that. Ken never differentiated by face or race, or else the fishmen on her island would have been annihilated.
There must be some other reason for which he is not telling. Cricket was a little curious of the crew, so he asked around, and thus random talks were rampant in the ship while it was flying high with booze and food. Blackbeard in Jaya was in very bad shape, but he didn't lose consciousness as of yet. He walked back with broken bones to Doc Q, where others were being treated.
Laffite had returned when Blackbeard was back, and he had returned with more exciting news.
