Chapter 650: Opportunities

Jin'an's eyes flickered as he stared at Blackbeard, feeling annoyed and helpless.

"Every time I want to kill you, something strange happens. You are really weird."

He muttered in a low voice, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

He had never met an opponent as resilient as Blackbeard, not only because of the other party's unusually strong body, but also because of his unpredictable abilities, as if he always had a way to turn the tables from desperate situations.

At this moment, a deafening drumbeat came again from deep in Blackbeard's heart, as if an earthquake was spreading from the inside out.

The drumbeat was not only a signal that Blackbeard was regaining his strength, but more like a call, making the entire battlefield crazy and uneasy.

"Boom...boom...boom..."

Every time the drum sounded, Blackbeard's body seemed to be injected with new strength. His muscles suddenly swelled and his eyes became more crazy and excited, as if everything in the world was serving him.

His arms shook violently, and then he pounced towards Jin An, so fast that it was almost impossible to see the trajectory of his movements.

Jin An didn't hesitate at all. He leaned his body slightly and dodged Blackbeard's attack in an instant. Taking advantage of the gap left by the opponent's attack, he counterattacked without hesitation.

The sharp blade with a cold light slashed towards Blackbeard's abdomen, but when it touched the opponent's skin, it was bounced away by a powerful dark force.

The power granted by Blackbeard's dark fruit can not only devour everything, but also rebound external attacks. Even in some extreme cases, it can absorb the attacker's own power and convert it for his own use.

"Damn it!"

Jin An was shocked, but still refused to back down.

His movements became more and more agile, and the blade kept drawing sharp trajectories, swift and precise, and every swing of the knife was accompanied by surging momentum.

However, Blackbeard's extremely special rebound ability meant that Jin'an's attacks could never cause any substantial damage to him.

At this moment, Blackbeard suddenly laughed. There was no fear in his laughter, but it was full of fanaticism and excitement.

"Hahaha, Jin'an, it seems that you finally understand who is the master of this battlefield!"

His voice resounded in the air like a thunderbolt, echoing in everyone's ears.

"What you don't know is,"

While Blackbeard was gasping for breath, suddenly another deafening drumbeat sounded.

"This is just the beginning!"

Blackbeard's aura changed drastically in an instant, and the breath filled with dark power quickly expanded and filled the entire battlefield.

The space around Blackbeard began to distort, the sky and the earth seemed to become blurred, and everything was pulled into his control by an invisible force.

"This is the ability of the Nika Fruit after it awakens!"

Blackbeard whispered, a mad gleam in his eyes.

As his voice fell, the air around him began to become oppressive, and the entire battlefield seemed to be shrouded by this force.

Jin'an suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of oppression, and the originally calm battlefield became as violent as a storm.

The power released by Blackbeard transformed the entire space into a domain that he could control at will. A dark vortex began to rotate in the air. The world seemed to have turned into a state of chaos and out of control. Everything was under Blackbeard's control.

Jinan's face changed slightly, the ground beneath his feet began to crack, and an indescribable feeling of oppression filled the air.

He felt that every breath he took was weighed down by the dark force, as if the air itself had become heavier.

Blackbeard seemed to have become the master of this space. Whether it was the wind in the sky or the cracks on the ground, they were all responding to the rhythm of his every heartbeat.

"Do you think I'll give you a chance to kill me?

Jinan, you are doomed to fail!"

Blackbeard's laughter became more and more crazy, with an almost unreasonable confidence, and his eyes flashed with the light that only extreme arrogance can produce.

He had completely fallen into this illusion of invincibility and was completely unaware that he might have missed his last chance to fight back.

Jin An sneered in his heart.

"You really can find a lot of reasons to keep you alive."

He suppressed his anger in his heart, but he still did not dare to relax at all during the battle.

Every time Blackbeard released that suffocating power, Jinan reacted even faster, with swift steps and the blade slashing at Blackbeard with lightning precision.

But this battle is different from the previous ones.

Not only did Blackbeard gain the ability to control the battlefield with the help of the dark power after the awakening of the Nika Fruit, but he himself became more and more unpredictable.

Jin An knew very well that if he continued to attack in this naive way, he would probably never be able to break through Blackbeard's defense.

A thought flashed through his mind.

“Maybe I should try a different approach.”

Jinan quickly adjusted his battle strategy and began to use more complex combos and clever dodges in an attempt to divert Blackbeard's attention and find a flaw.

He knew that no matter how powerful Blackbeard was, he would not be able to completely escape the laws of the battlefield and the limits of nature. His goal was to eventually bring silence to this chaotic battlefield.

Jin An secretly complained, his heart filled with disdain and helplessness.

His eyes were fixed on Blackbeard, but a sneer appeared on his face.

"Sure enough, the person who obtains the power of the Nika Fruit is really very tenacious."

He was well aware of the horror of this power. Every time Blackbeard was in front of him, he managed to escape death, as if he would never be in a truly desperate situation.

No matter how cruel the blow was, the dark force could always pull him back from the brink of life and death and save him from danger.

However, precisely because Blackbeard is so difficult to defeat, Jin An has no mercy in his heart.

On the contrary, this ability to constantly resurrect made him feel increasingly uneasy and bored.

"This guy is really hard to kill."

Jin An gritted his teeth, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

He no longer tried to perceive anything else on the battlefield, and all his attention was focused on Blackbeard.

"But, because of this, I want you to stay here forever."

Jin An made a secret decision, and the murderous intent in his eyes became stronger.

His steps became more and more steady, and each step was like a sledgehammer hitting the earth, with enough force to tear everything apart.

He understood that only by completely eliminating Blackbeard could he completely get rid of this potential threat and prevent him from becoming a hidden danger to himself and the entire world.

Blackbeard seemed to have noticed Jin'an's gaze and changes. A trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and the dark power in his hands began to become unstable, as if it was suppressed by something.

"Jin'an, do you really think you can kill me like this?"

Blackbeard forced a sneer, his eyes revealing a bit of uneasiness and nervousness.

"You've had chance after chance to survive, haven't you?"

Jin An responded, his tone calm, yet revealing endless coldness.

His movements became faster and faster, his steps were almost silent, the blade swept out, cutting the air into tiny traces, and with strong wind pressure, it rushed straight towards Blackbeard's chest.

Blackbeard subconsciously raised his arms, and darkness surged towards his palms like a tide, but Jin An was not intimidated by this force. Instead, he accelerated the speed of his attack.

"Boom!"

The blade collided with the dark power with a deafening sound, and the resulting vibration distorted the surrounding air.
