Bab 245: 244 Ur kidding me?
The impact of Blackbeard's head against the ground left a crater, and he coughed up blood, his fear of Whitebeard reaching its peak.
From a distance, Charles Vane observed everything, feeling a sudden relief—realizing that the old man was unharmed.
Whitebeard withstood Blackbeard's blow directly, using his own body as a shield.
Although Charles Vane knew that Whitebeard had a strong body before, he didn't expect it to be so strong.
The Tremor-Tremor Fruit is simply a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit, and it doesn't alter the user's body in any manner.
While it grants enhanced strength beyond ordinary individuals, it typically doesn't surpass those with Zoan Devil Fruit users.
And the tremor punch that Blackbeard threw just now, Jozu probably couldn't have withstood it without sustaining heavy damage.
Even with Jozu employing all his defenses including diamond fruit and armament haki, there's no guarantee that he wouldn't sustain injuries in such a scenario.
But Whitebeard didn't use any abilities, and just like that, he took Blackbeard's attack.
This kind of physical strength just amazed Charles Vane, but he did not have much reaction.
After all, Whitebeard is already a legendary figure in his mind. Even if it's a bit extraordinary, Charles Vane and the other commanders won't have much trouble accepting it.
"Oyaji, kill him!" Charles Vane began to shout loudly.
Whitebeard glanced in Charles Vane's direction, remaining silent. He then continued speaking to Blackbeard: "It's not impossible for me to spare you, but what is it for me to let you go?"
Blackbeard's head think quickly as he immediately replied, "Oyaji, I can give you all my territory."
"Huh, your territory? Do you think I won't take it after you die? That's also a condition?"
Whitebeard mocked.
"But, but they will resist, I can directly make them submit to you"
Blackbeard said.
"It doesn't seem to make a difference to me, and it doesn't cost much. Just think about it"
Whitebeard said lightly.
Blackbeard thought for a moment before saying: "In that case, I can assist you in attacking other Four Emperors. This way, it won't be considered as the Whitebeard Pirates directly attacking them, potentially avoiding some trouble for you."
Whitebeard sighed and remarked: "Forget it, it seems you're truly useless to me. Time to kill you now."
Whitebeard lifted his Naginata, preparing to strike down Blackbeard, who stared wide-eyed in sheer terror.
"Wait! Wait!"
"Do you have any last words?" Whitebeard inquired.
"I, I can transfer my devil fruit power to you." Blackbeard shouted.
"The power to transfer Devil Fruit abilities?" Whitebeard squinted at him.
"Yes, how about it? That way, you can have two Devil Fruit abilities!"
Blackbeard said, seizing the opportunity.
"Guurarara." Whitebeard laughed suddenly.
"Teach, do you think I don't know what you're thinking? If I have the power of two fruits, I will die."
Blackbeard began to breathe rapidly. Despite stalling for time, he couldn't come up with a solution to salvage the situation.
"Damn it! Whitebeard! damn it, what should I do now?"
Blackbeard kept thinking in his head.
Soon, Blackbeard was thinking of having one last battle. Being so close, he hoped to catch Whitebeard off guard and maybe finish him off directly.
While Whitebeard's body is strong and resistant to even his tremor attacks, Blackbeard is highly confident in his hidden strength.
The dark fruit's absorption effect can bypass defenses; a simple touch instantly nullifies the opponent's fruit ability.
Simultaneously, they sucked the opponent into a dark space. At such a close range, Blackbeard believed that once struck, Whitebeard wouldn't be able to escape.
Therefore, a spark lit up in Blackbeard's eyes the moment he made the decision. This was his final opportunity, and the outcome rested solely in his hands.
Blackbeard proceeded with great caution, not taking the situation lightly. His plan was to first plead with Whitebeard for mercy, diverting his attention, and then find the right moment to launch his attack.
"Oyaji, I really don't have anything to offer anymore. Trust me, if you want, I can transfer the dark power to someone else too."
During the conversation, Blackbeard subtly positioned a hand behind his back, quietly amassing his hidden strength.
This strike is Blackbeard's final hope, so he doesn't dare to overlook even the slightest detail. He aims to focus all his strength on this decisive move.
Upon hearing Blackbeard's words, Whitebeard hesitated as well.
While he has no desire for Blackbeard's fruit since he is currently invincible, the prospect of transferring the fruit to another commander while definitely brings joy to everyone.
After all, if Blackbeard is killed, the fruit will transform into other fruit right away, and it will take a considerable amount of time to locate it again.
Therefore, if he can enhance his crew strength, it's undoubtedly a win-win situation.
Yet, at the end of the day, what if Blackbeard, the possessor of the Dark Fruit, does know the method to transfer it.
Nevertheless, Whitebeard has no intention of letting Blackbeard escape; rather, he aims to extract valuable information from him, making the most of the situation.
In addition, Whitebeard's eyes squinted slightly, and he could see every move of Blackbeard.
What Blackbeard wanted to do at this moment, what secret thoughts he had, Whitebeard could see through it at a glance.
However, Whitebeard still aims to extract more information from Blackbeard and prefers that Blackbeard refrains from taking any immediate action against him.
So, Whitebeard quickly unleashed a surge of Conqueror's Haki, enveloping his entire body. He fixed his gaze on Blackbeard and spoke: "Teach, how can you achieve that?"
"Ah, simply use the dark power to restrain the devil fruit power, find the corresponding fruit, and infuse the dark power into that fruit simultaneously."
"By doing so, you can draw the devil into this fruit and acquire the Devil Fruit."
Observing Whitebeard with his Haki fully unleashed, Blackbeard realized it wasn't an opportune moment for a surprise attack. He could only reveal his card to Whitebeard.
This is the biggest secret of Blackbeard's Devil Fruit. It's through this secret that he can assemble such a large crew.
Blackbeard had promised them that he could help them obtain the specific Devil Fruit they wanted.
Now, by revealing this secret to Whitebeard, Blackbeard also signifies his true vulnerability in the current situation.
At this moment, Blackbeard's only wish is that sharing this information will earn him Whitebeard's trust. If Whitebeard has a change of heart, perhaps he'll choose not to kill him.
With that, Blackbeard doesn't need to take any risks by attacking Whitebeard, so he continues to closely observe Whitebeard's expression.
