Capítulo 123: Chapter 123- Katariana Devon: An Example in the Flesh
"It is not treason if from the beginning they wanted to betray them. These have always been pirates from the beginning."
Shiryu scoffed at the jailers' words.
The next instant, the Meito Raiu was unsheathed!
"What...?!"
"AHHHH"
"Why... what?!"
A scarlet flash flashed and screams echoed one after another at the entrance of the prison.
All the jailers fell dead in the blink of an eye!
Given this turn of events, Blackbeard and his crew were stunned by this unexpected situation.
What the hell? What's going on?
The battle is about to begin, and Shiryu decides to attack "his allies"?
A truly shocking moment. This scene made Blackbeard feel at ease with this former jailer of Impel Down.
"Even if I stay here, I can see how my future ends."
"I was looking forward to meeting people like you!"
Shiryu's deep voice echoed in the air.
The message was clear: Shiryu was willing to join the Blackbeard Pirates!
If it were another group of pirates, they very possibly wouldn't accept it, but this crew is Blackbeard's one looking for monsters like Shiryu!
"Zehahahaha, you are welcome to join, Shiryu!"
"It seems that we have something in common...!"
Blackbeard laughed, waved his hand for Van Augur to lower his weapon, and expressed his welcome to Shiryu.
At that time, Laffitte, who had already opened the prison, brought the four new "nakamas" in front of Blackbeard and Karl.
Karl's eyes, which until then had been focused on the depths of the prison, finally fell on the people in front of him.
However, just as his gaze fell on one of them, Karl, whose expression had remained calm all day, suddenly changed to a cold and terrifying...
"I'm sorry, I'll use your life."
An indifferent voice came from Karl's lips.
Before anyone could react, his figure disappeared!
*Bam*
The next instant, along with Karl's figure, a dull sound was heard, followed by splatters of blood...
"Ah...*cough*.. you... why?!"
Among the four brought by Laffitte, Catherine Devon looked in disbelief at her pierced chest, trembling with pain and surprise.
No one could react. Karl had hit her with a single attack, directly piercing Devon with a 'cold heart'.
Catarina Devon tried to distance herself, but she barely had the strength to move, the attack went very directly to her lungs and touched part of her heart.
Neither Devon, nor the other new recruits could understand what was going on, let alone Blackbeard and his crew, they were all completely baffled!
What...?!
Friend Karl, what's wrong with you? Did you have a personal grudge against this witch?
Killing her directly is brutal!
"There is no reason. I said it, I'll use your life."
"At least, you've contributed something to this team, even if you haven't done it in vain."
Karl withdrew his hand, walking slowly towards Devon while cracking a faint smile.
But that smile, in Devon's eyes, no matter how he looked at it, it was terrifying as a nightmare.
"Rookies, I don't care about your previous identities, whether they are Shichibukai like us or agents of the World Government hostile to us."
"But from now on, as members of Blackbeard's crew, they will play by our rules!"
"We can forget everything that happened in the past, but in the future, if they dare to betray, if they don't listen to my orders or those of Teach and act on their own..."
As he spoke, Karl's gaze swept over everyone, especially Crocodile and Shiryu, which made both of them shudder subconsciously.
"They'll end up worse off than her!"
Karl didn't need to say more. Now, everyone understood the reason for his attack.
A warning, simple but effective!
And the expression on Blackbeard's face changed from ignorant to happy...
As expected from my right hand, his thoughts are always strategic!
The bastards who come out of places like this are much more dangerous than Burgess and the others.
Of course, they must be warned from the beginning; otherwise, they could become a problem in the future.
Blackbeard thought: As expected of my first mate Karl, everything is easier with him.
Blackbeard's crew; Burgess, Van Augur, Laffitte, Doc Q, at that time, admired Karl even more.
Karl's coup de effect was very useful.
As of today, the situation where everyone wanted to be the captain of the Blackbeard Pirates in the future "in a big way" will not be possible.
Especially the "Corrupt King" who cried out every day for Blackbeard's abdication in the original story, is sure to make him come to his senses.
Even Crocodile, a powerful fellow who has seen cruel acts and great events in front of his eyes, felt in his heart a little admiration and respect for the young vice captain before him.
Karl's methods are far more decisive and ruthless than his own...
(T/N: Na, you know, the author giving more credit to Karl and that to make him look like the perfect first mate)
"Teach, don't waste it, this guy has a powerful devil fruit."
After addressing the crowd, Karl grabbed Devon's shoulder, waved his hand, and threw the prisoner at Blackbeard's feet.
"Zehahahahaha, perfect, Karl, as expected of you!"
"Excellent, let's take this opportunity to show my power to everyone!!"
After saying this, Blackbeard pulled a black cloth from his cloak and covered both his body and that of the dying Catherine Devon.
Blackbeard understood perfectly well what Karl meant.
To strike a firm blow and make them understand who the bosses are, these pirates with an ego higher than the sky.
Ambitious? Dangerous?
Both Karl and Blackbeard are at such a high level that managing guys like them becomes an impossible task for others.
However, Karl considered other points to attack Catherine Devon as an example.
There were other reasons. For example... the devil fruit he possessed!
Zoan mythological type, Inu Inu Fruit Kyubi no Kitzune model.
A very good Zoan, with several auxiliary skills not only for combat but for deception and other techniques, but her strength is not bad either as Mythic Zoan the increased base strength for her user without problems.
But...
Wasting such perfect Devil Fruit on someone like her was intolerable to Karl!
After all, someone more worthy should possess such a rare fruit.
*Tap*Tap*Tap
Just as Blackbeard was extracting the Kyubi Fruit, a sound of clear footsteps echoed from the darkness of the prison.
Not long after, a tall and thin old man appeared in front of everyone.
It was the legendary great pirate, the Red Earl, Patrick Redfield!
