Bab 19: 19 Complete Beatdown
"...…"
A group of individuals stared blankly at the unfolding spectacle.
Astonishment and shock were evident on the faces of everyone present.
Blackbeard, who had been boasting of invincibility moments ago, was forcefully struck and sent flying. The stark contrast left everyone momentarily speechless.
"Black… Blackbeard just lost?"
Ivankov gasped dramatically, covering his face with both hands.
From the beginning of the battle until its abrupt conclusion, only a few minutes had passed.
This is.... too fast!
"So strong!"
Luffy tightly clenched his fist.
It was the first time he had encountered such a powerful existence since embarking on his journey at sea.
Regardless of the opponent, it seemed that they could be dealt with in just one or two punches.
"Whitebeard's anger is truly terrifying!"
Redfield chuckled.
However, he wasn't overly surprised.
After all, being a strong individual from the same era as Whitebeard, he was well aware of the immense power Whitebeard possessed at his prime.
"Hey~"
"That foolish Blackbeard forgot one thing. Apart from the Shock-Shock Fruit ability, Old Whitebeard's mastery of Haki is exceptional!"
Crocodile sneered.
"Today, Thatch and Ace's vengeance can finally be avenged!"
Jozu laughed, as all the pent-up anger in his heart found release in that moment.
"Yes!"
Vista nodded, gazing at Whitebeard with even greater admiration and respect.
"Captain!"
At that moment, Blackbeard's crew snapped out of their daze.
As they observed Blackbeard being forcefully propelled away, a look of concern washed over their faces.
They realized that their fate was intertwined with Blackbeard's, for if he were to perish, they too would face dire consequences.
"Do it!"
Lafite shouted out, ready to take action.
However, Jozu, Vista, and Jinbei stood in their way, blocking their path.
"That's father battle, you better not interfere!"
Vista unsheathed his longsword, his eyes gleaming with a chilling intent to kill.
Speaking of which, these crew members of Blackbeard were the main instigators of this war as well.
When it came to his enemies, the thought of showing mercy never crossed his minds.
"Father Whitebeard has shown great kindness to the Fishmen, and Father enemies are also my enemies!"
Jinbei assumed a karate stance, his voice filled with unwavering determination.
"Damn it!"
Lafite and the others' expressions turned pale, realizing that they couldn't lend support to their captain.
Not only were they unable to provide assistance, but there was also a possibility of their own downfall.
These three individuals included Jinbei, the former Warlord of the Sea, and the Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Not only were these individuals not weaker than the Blackbeard crew, but they might even be stronger than them!
"Attack!"
Vista shout.
He tightly crossed his longswords and swung his arms vigorously.
Stabbed~
A sharp and explosive sound resonated.
The sharp gleam of the swords flashed like lightning, carrying a chilling aura that sent shivers down the spines of the Blackbeard crew, causing their hair to stand on end.
"Fishman karate!"
Jinbei, standing beside them, swiftly joined the fray, unleashing a powerful strike with his right palm.
"I won't let you off the hook so easily, you bastard who caused Ace's capture!"
Jozu roared as the diamond light surged up his arms.
With a powerful stomp, he charged forward, his body propelled by the force.
boom! boom! boom!
The battle between the crew started.
The power surged, shattering the ground into fragments.
With blood staining his face, Blackbeard, who was previously blown away, managed to rise to his feet.
Clutching his head and staggering, he appeared on the verge of collapsing.
"Look at that~"
"You managed to get back on your feet so quickly after that attack, just like that straw hat boy."
Crocodile sneered.
"He got some strength"
Redfield smiled.
Anyone else would have been knocked out cold by Whitebeard's blow.
Just like Magellan earlier, he was incapacitated and unable to fight back.
But Blackbeard, unlike Magellan, managed to stand up despite the powerful blow.
Whether or not his opponent was stronger than Magellan, it was clear that Blackbeard had a higher resistance to taking beatings.
"What about he standing up again?"
"The weak remain weak, and even if they manage to stand up again, they'll only meet their defeat soon and won't escape the grip of death!"
Bullet showed disdain.
To him, there's no distinction between dying sooner or later.
Without being able to fight Whitebeard, Blackbeard's futile resistance against Whitebeard is nothing but a feeble struggle of the weak.
After several people talked, Blackbeard regained full consciousness.
Before he could react, a towering figure loomed before him.
Look up…
What met his gaze were piercing eyes!
"Fa…father…"
Fear flickered in Blackbeard's eyes.
The previous punch had fully awakened him.
He understood that despite having the Dark-Dark Fruit ability, he was no match for Whitebeard.
"Teach!!!"
Whitebeard's deep voice resonated, his towering figure casting a shadow over Blackbeard in the sunlight.
Make Blackbeard look like a wounded cub…
Fragile… and powerless!
"Fa…father…forgive me…"
Blackbeard's smile turned uglier than ever, a mix of desperation and pleading as he begged Whitebeard for mercy: "I was wrong, I shouldn't kill Thatch, let alone act on Ace, please give me a chance to change it!"
He was really scared!
Fear gripped Blackbeard's heart as he worried that Whitebeard would unleash his wrath upon him.
He was terrified that his ambitions and dreams would remain unfulfilled, and that he would meet his end right there.
Facing the fear of death, he was struggling to stay alive.
He pleaded, hoping to prolong his life on the verge of death.
pity...…
Useless
Without paying further attention, Whitebeard forcefully grabbed Blackbeard's arm, his voice resolute and unwavering.
"I have no son who would harm his comrade!"
Snapped!
He lifted Blackbeard.
With a powerful throw, he launched Teach into the air.
With a swift motion, his Naginata was unsheathed, slicing through the air with a resounding whoosh as it aimed for the descending Blackbeard.
Stabbed~
The blood sprayed and fell like raindrops.
A huge cut was cut in front of Blackbeard, causing him to scream and fall to the ground fiercely.
Then he clutched his chest and kept wailing.
Ignoring the desperate cries, Whitebeard approached Blackbeard step by step.
When he reached Blackbeard's side, he delivered a powerful blow to the opponent's palm with the hilt of his Naginata.
At the same time, raising his fist, a ball of light appeared, smashing down fiercely.
"It's over… Teach!"*
