Chapter 201 Between life and death

"Pirate's Scourge ()"

Not only can it accurately lock the ability person itself, but also deprive the ability person of the devil's power bit by bit on the way to suck the ability person over.

This characteristic is the root cause of Blackbeard's desperate attempts to obtain the Dark Fruit.

but……

These abilities and characteristics of the dark fruit are powerful, but the disadvantages are also very obvious.

As the most special natural system, the body of the dark fruit ability person cannot be elementalized, and unlike other natural systems, it has a strong positive destructive power.

Because of this, Blackbeard with a special physique is so obsessed with the Zhenzhen Fruit with powerful destructive power.

That's the last key piece of the puzzle for him to rule the world!

"I can find the Zhenzhen fruit slowly, but now, I must get rid of you!"

Blackbeard looked coldly at Maud, who was locked by gravity and could not resist.

To be honest, after seeing with his own eyes that Mord developed the [Shadow Fruit] to such an extent, Blackbeard wanted to leave the position of the second fruit for the shadow demon that could be absorbed from Mord's body. force.

In the end, however, reason prevailed over this whim.

After all, what he lacks is simple and rude destructive power, not the shadow ability to take a treacherous route.

"This time, I won't let you escape again!"

A cold killing intent appeared in Blackbeard's eyes.

This dark vortex is equivalent to a small black hole.

That is to say, as long as he grabs Maud and the shadow together, he can directly send Maud into the black hole, and then compress Maud with infinite power until it is crushed!

It's just that inhaling a lifeless object is different from inhaling a strong person with a strong breath.

The former is easy to inhale, while the latter requires a delay of a few seconds.

And the delay time in these few seconds has to test the hand-to-hand combat ability of both sides.

Blackbeard has not yet obtained the shocking power of his heart, and the person he is facing is Maud, so he has no bottom in his heart.

However, the initiative of the lore is in his hands, so even if he is forced to carry out Maud's melee attack, as long as he survives these few seconds of melee combat, he can directly decide the outcome.

It's a pity that this time, although it was ensured that both Maud and the shadow were stuck by gravity, there was no companion to make up for the knife.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have to take the risk of losing hand-to-hand combat at all.

In an extremely short period of time, Blackbeard, who was in control of the victory, was full of emotions.

He sits firmly on the Diaoyutai on his side, while Maud's side is the speed of life and death.

Despite the critical situation, Maud did not panic.

"The physical shadow transformed by the power of the Devil Fruit cannot escape the gravity of the black hole, what if it is a shadow in a normal state..."

Even if the ability of the shadow fruit is temporarily sealed, in melee combat, Maud is not a false black beard at all.

The only thing to worry about is the shadow being sucked away from the body.

If shadows are sucked into Blackbeard's black hole space...

Under this premise, if Blackbeard is determined not to liberate the black hole, it means that the shadow will be trapped in the black hole forever.

This is not what Maud wants to see.

"Release!"

Maud's heart moved, and he issued an instruction to the shadow to remove the ability.

In an instant, the solid-like shadow that was flying in front and locked by gravity instantly recovered to be unaffected by light, and there was a plane shadow that was more conceptualized.

strictly speaking--

The two-dimensional shadow that can move freely and is not affected by light born under the effect of the shadow fruit ability is no longer a normal optical phenomenon.

Perhaps calling it a partial incarnation of Maud's soul would be more inclined to the correct answer.

The shadow of the physical state was lifted, and just as Maud had hoped, it got rid of the gravitational force of the dark fruit and fell on the ground full of messes.

at the same time.

Maud, locked by gravity, flew over the distance between life and death, and was strangled by Blackbeard's neck with one hand.

At the moment when the body touched, Maud lost the ability of the shadow fruit, and naturally could not exchange positions with the shadow hanging on the ground.

"You're finished, Bacardi Maud!!!"

Blackbeard grasped the timing precisely, and while strangling Maud's neck, he wrapped his solidly armed left hand in advance, clenched his palm into a fist, and hit Maud's chest ruthlessly.

Bang!

With an extremely dull explosion of air, Maud's body suddenly arched back.

A burst of energy from the fist penetrated directly through his body and came out from the back.

At the same time, the black mist emerging from Blackbeard's palm had already wrapped around Maud's neck.

It seems that in just another second or two, Maud will be pulled into the black hole space by the black fog.

"thief haha...!!!"

Blackbeard seemed to have seen Maud's death and laughed proudly.

"Um!?"

Just when Blackbeard wanted to make a second punch, he saw Maud holding an old-fashioned flintlock pistol in his left hand and aiming the slightly downwardly inclined muzzle at his abdomen.

"What if you get a shot, when the next punch is over, gravity will completely swallow you!"

Blackbeard, who was in control of the overall situation, did not pay attention to the flintlock gun that Maud pointed to his abdomen. He knew very well that the key to victory was to use gravity to suck Maud into the black hole!

In this short second of life and death, after Blackbeard hastily put a piece of armed color on his abdomen, he punched Maud in the chest again.

Bang!

It was the sound of Blackbeard's second punch to Maud.

Under the attack, Maud raised his head and vomited thick blood, and his entire upper body was already plunged into a black fog.

boom!

This is the sound of Maud pulling the trigger and shooting.

A special bullet, wrapped in Maud's desperate armament color, hit Blackbeard's abdomen at close range.

laugh!

A blood flower bloomed instantly.

The bullet pierced through the armed color on Blackbeard's abdomen with difficulty, and then got into Blackbeard's body.

The heart-piercing pain that came back first made Blackbeard take a deep breath.

But the outcome is decided.

In this deadly battle, his Blackbeard won! ! !

"This is your last futile struggle, Bacardi. Mo... eh!?"

Before the black mist devoured Maud, Blackbeard took advantage of the situation and laughed, but the sudden feeling of weakness made him stop talking.

"This is……!?"

Blackbeard weakly loosened the right hand that was gripping Maud's neck, staring at the black mist that disappeared like Haruyuki, staggered, and almost fell to the ground softly.

As soon as the unreasonable gravity of the dark fruit disappeared, Maud landed steadily and put away the old flintlock gun that was smoking gunpowder.

Immediately, Maud raised his hand and covered his face, wiping up the blood stained on his face, including the messy hair on his forehead.

The messy hair was instantly shaped by blood.

"Blackbeard, has no one told you? Ego and rashness are your weaknesses."

After doing this, Maud lowered his head and calmly looked down at the stunned black beard at a distance of one body.

Blackbeard stared at Maud, his wide eyes filled with strong unwillingness.

"Hailou Stone Bullet... You have been..."

"Well, right."

Maud reached out and grabbed Blackbeard's neck, thus interrupting Blackbeard's half-sentence.

Bailey relaxed completely and ran onto Maud's shoulders.

The navies not far away all had their faces stiffened.

Everything that happened just now seems to be a long time, but in fact it only happened within a few seconds...
