Chapter 1663 Blackbeard, whose stamina is not very good

The Nomu army that Shigaraki Tomura had painstakingly summoned was completely severed by Admiral Kizaru's unprecedented rain of lightsabers.

Faced with the overwhelming, indiscriminate barrage of destructive swords of light, he could only defend himself in a sorry state.

His arms, covered in severed hands, flailed wildly. Any lightsaber that his palms touched instantly crumbled and disintegrated, turning into primordial photons and dissipating, never to be able to maintain its form again.

This bizarre ability to directly destroy energy structures is indeed amazing, but it is limited to self-defense and renders it incapable of launching an offensive.

The other Blackbeard Pirates officers, under the barrage of lightsabers, also used their unique abilities to try and protect themselves.

Hawkes skillfully maneuvered through the air with his crimson wings, narrowly dodging attacks by taking advantage of the tiny gaps between lightsaber shots.

At the same time, he released countless sharp, crimson feathers, like living throwing knives, to actively meet the lightsabers that he could not dodge.

It often takes several or even a dozen feathers striking in succession to barely shatter a lightsaber.

He struggled to stay afloat in the air, inwardly groaning, "The Admiral is indeed a monster; I absolutely cannot face him personally..."

Lady Muzan remained elegant as she looked up at the golden swords of light falling from the sky, a hint of appreciation appearing on her beautiful face.

She murmured softly, "It's so beautiful..."

With a casual wave of her exquisite flower fan, she gestured towards the sky.

Several sharp, blood-red slashes, solid as bolts of lightning, shot out from under the fan and surged upwards.

She precisely collided with the falling lightsaber, shattering it in mid-air. Her movements seemed casual, yet extremely efficient. Moreover, she paid no attention to the other officers, calmly clearing away the danger above her head.

In the Blackbeard Pirates, the officers mostly mind their own business and rarely act selflessly.

Louhu took advantage of the chaos to retreat silently. The task Teach gave him was not to deal with Kizaru, but another Marine Admiral.

His short body sank slightly, and a burst of scorching lava erupted from beneath his feet, propelling him into the sky like a cannonball, quickly moving away from the center of the main battlefield in Marineford.

They sped off towards the outer sea, heading towards the two elemental giants there.

"That damned Kizaru is such a nuisance," Blackbeard Teach's expression crumbled, his eyes blazing with fury.

The surging darkness above his head grew even denser, as if it would devour all the light around him. "You think you can stop us all by yourself?"

"Dark acupoints!" he roared, pushing his arms upwards with a sudden burst of energy.

A massive black wave, like a swamp, surged from his body, rising upwards and crashing into the golden halos in the sky that were still generating lightsabers.

This is a darkness that can devour everything; wherever it passes, air, light, and energy seem to be erased.

The falling lightsabers vanished instantly upon contact with the black tide, like ice blocks thrown into lava.

The golden halos that were the source of the darkness flickered under its erosion, and were eventually completely replaced by the surging darkness.

In the sky, a vast dark area replaced the previous golden sea of ​​light, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.

Kizaru Borsalino hovered silently in place, refraining from escalating his attack during the process.

Behind his sunglasses, he calmly observed Teach as he used his ability. He could clearly see that the other man's fat face was covered in sweat, and his breathing had become heavier.

"Oh?" A barely perceptible sneer appeared on Kizaru's lips.

With his keen eye, he naturally noticed some clues.

"Teach, you always use your Dark-Dark Fruit ability so extensively. It doesn't seem like it's easy for you~"

He paused slightly before stating a fact: "The powerful Devil Fruit ability is taking a toll on my stamina, and I probably won't be able to sustain it for much longer."

The Logia-type Dark-Dark Fruit, which cannot be transformed into an element, is very effective against many Devil Fruit users. However, in addition to taking more damage, its significant drawback is the increased stamina consumption.

After Teach painstakingly dealt with the trouble above his head, the darkness that had swallowed the halo slowly contracted and returned to his body.

He raised his sleeve and roughly wiped the dense beads of sweat from his face, his breathing still heavy.

If his stamina were limitless, he would have personally charged into the naval ranks and wreaked havoc long ago, instead of letting his officers lead the charge as he does now.

He must conserve his energy and use the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit at the most crucial moment.

For example, when facing Fleet Admiral Sengoku or Edward Newgate, without the nullification ability of the Dark-Dark Fruit, he wouldn't have been absolutely certain of defeating those two old men with the help of his other officers.

Teach raised his head, a fierce glint in his eyes. "Kizaru, thank you for your concern, but you'd better mind your own business!"

He suddenly stretched out his hand, pointing directly at the horrific battlefield below, his voice rising abruptly and filled with madness: "Today I will rise to power over the corpses of your navy! You forced me to do this!!"

Kizaru sneered, his voice icy, "Then I'll wait and see." Everyone has weaknesses, and if they continue to wear down Blackbeard like this, Teach will eventually run out of energy.

That being said, Kizaru knew perfectly well what was going on.

If it were an ordinary Devil Fruit user, he would have already transformed into a beam of light and kicked the other person away.

But against Teach, that ability to nullify Devil Fruit powers was just too overpowered.

It is estimated that before one's feet even get close to the other's body, the power of light will be directly nullified, and the elementalization will be forcibly interrupted.

At that point, he'll only be able to rely on Haki and physical skills to fight against Teach himself and his menacing subordinates. Kizaru doesn't want to suffer such a huge loss.

His fighting style has always revolved around the speed of light and mobility, maintaining distance for efficient attacks.

Engaging in close combat, especially when your abilities might be restricted, to deal with a freak is definitely not a wise choice.

Therefore, he chose to remain inactive for the time being, continue to observe, and look for a better opportunity.

Kizaru is waiting for Fleet Admiral Sengoku's signal. His mission is more about restraint and deterrence, as well as eliminating those special ability users who could cause widespread damage.

With each cyborg charging into battle, one less was lost. The Navy, bolstered by their leader's charisma, gradually regained their footing and, relying on their unwavering belief in justice, finally brought these cyborgs to their deaths.

After fighting from day to night for so long in Marineford, all eyes were once again focused on the execution platform.
