Blackbeard suddenly had the feeling that Skyler had a complete insight into his plan and all the steps required in his plan, and then used these against him.

From the secret fruit of stealing and substituting, to the Shichibukai incident, and now Skyler guarding Whitebeard's corpse, there is no doubt that Blackbeard has failed again and again.

But, how is this possible? Even Blackbeard doesn't know what his complete plan is. The path he wants to take is not as simple as cooking.

When cooking, you can first make a menu, prepare the ingredients, and then cook step by step. This simple thing may be completely predictable.

But the path he wants to take... every step is a gamble! Even the choice in every gamble, Blackbeard often makes an impromptu decision at the last moment.

He himself is not sure what his next step will be. How could someone grasp his pace so accurately? And inflict targeted damage on him based on his pace?

However, if Skyler couldn't guess his plan and pace, then why did Skyler target him every step of the way?

After joining the red-haired and Bucky fruit plan, he became a member of the Shichibukai, but before he could even put it into effect, Skyler was removed from the group. And now, Skyler just refuses to leave.

Especially in this last step, Skyler's previous targeting of him, although very precise and causing huge damage... still left Blackbeard room for rescue.

Although he took the Fang Fruit instead of the Dark Fruit, it was precisely because it was the Fang Fruit that Blackbeard had the opportunity to capture Bista and Izo. If it was the Dark Fruit, it might be more troublesome.

After he became a Shichibukai, although he failed to use his identity as a Shichibukai to fully realize his plan, he also accomplished the most important things.

After getting all kinds of information about Impel Down City and Malinfando, and giving myself time to contact some people in three days, I had the opportunity to invade Impel Down City.

But now...the most important step in Blackbeard's plan, to obtain Whitebeard's Shock Fruit, has been unable to be realized.

Blackbeard is confident that in this case, he can capture Whitebeard's Shock Fruit ability, and he is confident that no one else can master his method, not even Skyler.

Moreover, who would do anything to a person who is already certain to be dead? Therefore, in Blackbeard's view, even if he wanted to do something to Whitebeard, the Navy should not stop him.

After all... although it sounds strange to say it, if Blackbeard did something to Whitebeard at this time, or even whipped the corpse into such a bad behavior, the Navy should be happy to see it.

He, Blackbeard, was the sinner of the Whitebeard Pirates, and the culprit responsible for Whitebeard's death in Malinvando, and such a defector continued to attack Whitebeard after his death.

For the Navy, it is an attack on the pirates, Whitebeard, what Whitebeard just said, and Blackbeard. The Navy should let him do whatever he wants, and then use it for public opinion attacks later!

Isn’t that what the navy likes to play the most?

But why did it fail? No, this can't even be said to be a failure. It's because the Navy didn't give Whitebeard a chance at all, and he hadn't even officially started to implement the plan.

It was just a black curtain thrown in the sky that was harmless to humans and animals. This cloth posed no threat. Why did Skyler have to chop this black curtain into pieces?

With this black curtain, Blackbeard can be very sure that this is just a random decision on his part, just thinking... to make his father a little more decent.

Otherwise, you can use anything else to block it, and the blocking itself is not completely necessary. It's just that Blackbeard doesn't want others to know the process.

But Skyler's vigilance was too much. Sengoku, He, and even Whitebeard didn't think there was any conspiracy, but Skyler took action to stop it.

Moreover, Skyler was still standing next to Whitebeard at this time. He did not fight with other fugitives or attack his own group. He just made a flying slash from a distance and then began to rest.

Skyler was not like this when he secretly watched the battle just now. He cut off his white beard, which is called a serious effort, but now he is cultivating himself and not taking action at will?!

This is obviously impossible. The only explanation is that Skyler knows what he wants to do.

But...how did Skyler know about it? He had some plans, or some details of the plans, and he didn't even tell his companions.

In other words, Skyler also learned about some things that were rotten in his heart?

Seeing that Whitebeard's breathing was getting weaker and weaker, his heartbeat was getting weaker and weaker, and he would soon lose consciousness and die.

If he could only sit back and watch Whitebeard die without doing anything, then why did he come to Malinfando?

Moreover, once Whitebeard is completely dead, if Blackbeard wants to get the Shock Fruit again, he will have to wait again, or search like a needle in a haystack.

Blackbeard has been waiting for decades, and he doesn't want to wait any longer. Moreover, the difficulty of searching for the reborn Zhenzhen Fruit in the entire world... is simply unimaginable.

He waited for the Dark Fruit for decades, but decades later, he still didn't get the Dark Fruit, only an interesting "idea" from Skyler.

Blackbeard instantly felt like going to fight Skyler directly and take another gamble on whether he could seize the power of the Shocking Fruit under Skyler's guard.

But...his strongest defense just now couldn't withstand Skyler's slash.

It is true that teeth are the hardest organ of living things, but what Skyler is holding is a black knife. His blackbeard teeth can block fists, Bista's sword, and Izo's fists.

But he couldn't block Skyler's knife.

In this senseless and struggling waiting, Blackbeard's face became even more distorted, Whitebeard was losing the remaining light in his eyes little by little, and his breathing was so weak that he could no longer hear it.

"Damn it!!! Can't wait any longer!"

Blackbeard roared in his heart, but he did not take a step forward. After all, there was not only Skyler below, but also Marshal Warring States not far away.

If he rushes down rashly, Skyler cuts him and Sengoku punches him, he will probably be seriously injured. If he is really injured in Marineland, let alone completing his plan, will he be able to escape?

Not so optimistic.

Blackbeard looked at his "companions" beside him, hinting that they should fight Skyler, Sengoku and the others first, so that he could seize the opportunity to seize Whitebeard's Shock Fruit ability.

But... Katrin Diemei completely pretended to be dead and asked her to go to Skyler to cause trouble? She would not dare to do this if she was given a hundred lives.

In front of other enemies, her ability to develop to the level of resurrection is very good, but... even her resurrection ability takes time to activate.

With Skyler's strength, it is completely impossible to give her a chance to activate her abilities. Moreover, even if she can achieve resurrection seamlessly, for Skyler, it is just a difference between one stab and a few more.

Not to mention Shiliu, an old fisherman, who was still looking at each other endlessly with Kizaru at this time.

Basque Choate... If it was a few years ago, he might have really dared to go up, but since he was hammered into Impel Down City, he also understood that there was a gap between the top of the world and him.

And Skyler is undoubtedly one of the very few people at the top of the world. It is totally not worth it to take action against Skyler for a "promise" that has begun to collapse.

San Juan Wolf was currently being chased by Garp and was running around Marinevando, completely unable to care about this side.

As for the remaining members who had followed Blackbeard earlier... Lafitte was in the sky, not even daring to land. He had already lost two legs for Blackbeard.

Based on his understanding of Blackbeard, if he loses anything again and becomes a person who is completely useless to Blackbeard, I am afraid that Blackbeard will abandon him mercilessly.

Van Oka wanted to fire the first shot, but on the high wall in the distance, the man sitting on the wall with his legs hanging in the air, holding a monocle and wiping the barrel of the gun, asked him to

Don't dare to take action at all.

Whitebeard's poisonous q, who was dying and looking worse than the countdown to his life, kept hinting to himself, telling himself that he was just a ship's doctor and should not participate in the battle.

After seeing Blackbeard looking at him, Gizas Badges reached out to cover the wound on his abdomen, telling his captain that he had been seriously injured in Impel Down and it was not appropriate to take action.

Moreover, he is the current helmsman of the Blackbeard Pirates. He will definitely be needed if they want to sail away later. If he falls here and prevents everyone from escaping from Marinefando, it will be more of a loss than a gain.

Seeing that none of his men were willing to take action for his greater interests, Blackbeard was very angry and disappointed, regretting that he had chosen the wrong person.

But what can he do? What should he do? Lead by example?

What if he does this and dies? If he dies, the Blackbeard Pirates will be completely disbanded, and... he doesn't want to die!

What Blackbeard and his gang didn't know was that a phone bug was broadcasting the scene live on their side.

When they saw Blackbeard's group arriving at Marinefando, no one dared to take action against Skyler. Many people watching the live broadcast began to laugh loudly.

Especially those "comrades", some even rolled on the ground laughing.

If they were to change places and be put in the same situation as Blackbeard and his gang, they would not dare to take action, and their performance would even be worse than that of the Blackbeard Pirates. They would still dare to come to Malinfando.

However, they don't need to change places. They can laugh at the Blackbeard Pirates and the rest from the perspective of bystanders. This is a great joy.

Skyler looked at this group of people and was very speechless. She stood next to Whitebeard because she knew that Blackbeard's group would attack Whitebeard and take away his fruit ability.

In order not to make things easier for Blackbeard, she kept standing there, but Skyler thought this would be a "tower defense" battle. Blackbeard's group besieged her, and then she defended the tower to prevent Blackbeard's group.

People succeed.

Skyler even took the lead and announced the start of the battle with a flying slash, but what happened to these people?! Why didn't anyone move?!

During this period of time, the physical strength lost in the battle between Skyler and Whitebeard has almost been fully recovered. The pain in the body, the areas where accounting and exertion were not smooth have also been adjusted at this time.

Blackbeard is constantly expanding his disadvantages. The closer Skyler returns to his prime, the harder it will be for them to seize the Shock Fruit.

Skyler really couldn't figure out what these people were thinking.

But for Blackbeard's group, in their opinion, Skyler has the ability to kill them whether he is in his prime or not, but no one among them wants to try.

Apart from Blackbeard, Shiliu was the only one who had the strength to take Skyler's attack. At this time, he was targeted by Kizaru, and he himself was unwilling to take action, which led to this insistent situation.

Blackbeard was thinking at this time, when he was advancing into the city a few hours ago, he should have found a few "companions" who were not very smart and had bad tempers and would attack if they disagreed. How good would that be?

"Boom~"

Suddenly, there was a look of despair in Blackbeard's eyes, because...Whitebeard's heart stopped beating, and he just stood there and died.

Skyler also looked up at Whitebeard. At this time, Whitebeard had closed his eyes. The obsidian that pierced his heart also stayed there, no longer trembling due to the beating of Whitebeard's heart.

The strongest man in the world, a pirate as famous as the Pirate King Goldo Roger, the Four Emperors of the New World, the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates and his fleet, Whitebeard Edward Newgate, is in silence.

died in.

Skyler raised his left hand, and from the scarlet ghost-binding bead, several ghost-binding threads shot out, wrapped around the obsidian knife handle, and then pulled the obsidian out of Whitebeard's body.

"Wow~"

The moment Obsidian was pulled out, the captain's cloak wrapped behind Whitebeard no longer had anything to hold it down or support him. The heavy cloak stained with blood fell to the ground.

Whitebeard's body now has countless scars, including old scars and new scars from this war.

Countless cutting marks, marks frozen by ice, burned by magma, and pierced by light beams, are all revealed in front of people's eyes.

It's just that this king of the sea who fought countless battles in his life didn't have any scars from his back. Even though there were wounds, they all corresponded to the scars on his chest.

Whitebeard's journey is over.
