"Thank you for your invitation. I'll continue searching here."
"Okay, but if we find Shandora, I will make a huge noise so you can feel it." Luffy grinned.
"I believe this." The chestnut-haired uncle nodded with a smile.
During these three days, he also got to know Luffy's character clearly. He was indeed a playful guy who could come up with something new every day.
Chapter 207 One Sword
The Straw Hat Pirates set out to sea on a boat.
Cheng Lang was looking at the coast, witnessing ships setting sail one after another. It was obvious that countless pirates set sail from Mogu Town every day.
"What are you looking at?" Robin came to Cheng Lang curiously.
"Do you believe in fate?"
"Fate?" Robin pondered for a moment, recalling his twenty-eight years of life. If there was fate, his own was so ill-fated. "If there was, I hope it didn't exist."
Cheng Lang did not react, but instead looked in one direction, where he saw what he wanted to see.
"If I tell you that I can change my fate right now, do you think I should do it?"
"?"
Robin didn't understand, and then he saw Cheng Lang staring into the distance, and in the distance there was a pirate ship with three skulls painted on the canvas.
The boat looks very simple, like a bamboo raft.
"Is fate good or bad?"
"Not sure, it could be good or it could be bad." Cheng Lang did not give an accurate answer.
To be honest, the birth of the Battle of Marineford and Luffy's escape from the Undersea Prison were largely due to Blackbeard's contribution.
But at the same time, if there was no Blackbeard, there would be no Battle of Marineford.
Robin was silent. This is a difficult thing to define.
But she asked another question: "Do you like an unchanging fate?"
"..."
Cheng Lang fell into deep thought. It had been over half a year since he came to the pirate world, hadn't it? He and Luffy and his crew were getting along very well. It was like being back in college, facing his roommates. They were all bad friends, but they were all very happy.
"As expected of you, Robin, the caring big sister."
"Indeed, it would be best if such a future does not occur."
When Robin saw Cheng Lang's carefree smile, she was also stunned. It was not because Cheng Lang's smile was so beautiful that made her lose her mind, but because Cheng Lang drew out the Seven Star Sword and drank a bottle of potion at the same time.
Although he didn't know what it was, immediately after drinking it, blood began to flow out of Cheng Lang's body from all seven orifices.
But the horrifying scene left Robin stunned.
Similarly, everyone else on the boat felt Cheng Lang's aura suddenly surge.
But before they could react.
Cheng Lang had already aimed the Seven Star Sword at Blackbeard's ship several thousand meters away.
Of course, he was not so arrogant as to think that he could kill Blackbeard thousands of meters away with just a flying slash, but the sea is dangerous, especially for people with special abilities.
"This sword is my strongest sword right now."
Cheng Lang looked at the Seven Star Sword, and it seemed that it could sense his emotions. At this moment, the ghost energy of the Seven Star Sword slowly climbed up along his arm.
In just a moment, Cheng Lang's body was visibly getting thinner.
This is Cheng Lang's life return in action. He transformed all his energy into strength.
Cheng Lang ate the enchanted golden apple, and then drank Chopper's improved qi-replenishing potion. A steady stream of strength and domineering power surged out of his body.
And then he concentrated all this power on the Seven Star Sword.
"Ghost Qi: Black Dragon Slash."
Cheng Lang looked at Blackbeard's ship in the distance with burning eyes.
As if sensing his accumulated strength, Blackbeard turned his head and looked at the Merry, which had been transformed into an eagle. He felt a palpitation, a feeling he had not had for a long time.
In an instant, his expression changed, and before he knew it, his teeth became very neat.
He walked step by step to the side of the boat.
A red light flashed in his eyes.
"What a powerful attack, but so weak." Quietly, the armed color domineering aura emanated from his hand.
In just a moment, his arm turned pitch black.
"captain?"
Poison Q was the first to notice the changes in Blackbeard, for no other reason than that he was a person who was very sensitive to scent.
And now he is also the one who is curious about Blackbeard's body. After all, it is too abnormal.
"Hide well, you might fall into the water soon."
"?"
"occur.."
The words haven't finished yet.
Suddenly, inky black lightning exploded from the horizon, and a black dragon tightly wrapped in black flames rushed towards them like an arrow.
The sky seemed to be split into a shocking crack by this shocking blow.
"!"
Everyone on Blackbeard's ship felt the irresistible murderous intent and the domineering aura that only a king could possess.
The pitch-black flame dragon was very fast and arrived in front of Blackbeard and his crew's ship in the blink of an eye.
Except for Blackbeard, no one else reacted at all.
And the scene that he had seen in the observation Haki had really happened.
Blackbeard is not as calm as he appears.
He is the user of the Dark-Dark Fruit.
When facing people with special abilities, he has a natural advantage and can even counterattack.
But if he fights against a pure physical or swordsman, he actually has no advantage in ability, and the damage he receives is even doubled due to the negative effects of the fruit's ability.
Especially the pain is to a level that is difficult for ordinary people to accept.
To be honest, anyone who gets this fruit will die suddenly or die in pain due to its negative effects.
The pitch-black armament color quietly spread over his entire body.
This might save him some pain in the next blow.
Blackbeard took the black dragon burning with dark flames head-on.
The sea is surging.
Black Dragon and Blackbeard's hands did not collide.
But sword energy burst out from the black dragon's body.
In just a moment, countless fish in the sea behind Blackbeard were cut and killed by the sword energy.
Even the sea kings buried below were affected and their skin was bleeding.
It was as if it had been cut by countless knives.
Blackbeard's ship was naturally the most seriously damaged, but perhaps because Blackbeard was intentionally controlling it, his ship, which looked like a bamboo raft, did not fall apart.
"Hiss, what kind of ability is this!"
Even though Blackbeard's body was hardened by the domineering aura at this moment, countless ghostly flames had quietly climbed up. However, there were no burns where the ghostly flames burned, but instead there were tiny sword marks, and these sword marks were eroding his nerves all the time.
But when he really faced it, even though he was mentally prepared, the intense pain at this moment made his scalp tingle.
Especially since his own sensitivity to pain is multiplied.
If there are countless small knives moving on your skin, you will have the illusion of being cut into pieces.
If it were a normal person, they might be able to bear it. After all, they have hardened their domineering aura, and the pain on their skin is more like walking naked through a thorny jungle.
But for Blackbeard, this was a pain on the level of the ten most cruel tortures of the Qing Dynasty.
It's painful, but not fatal.
Countless inky black air burst out from behind Blackbeard, trying to extinguish the pitch-black flames.
However, it was in vain. It was not that it could not be eliminated, but the pitch-black flame black dragon in front of Blackbeard was still continuing to burst out these ghostly flames.
Chapter 208: Escape
"Damn it!" Blackbeard's eyes were blazing with anger as he was suddenly killed for no apparent reason.
But by the time he discovered it, the other party had already completed charging.
This inexplicable sudden attack made him unable to suppress his anger.
However, anger will only make him lose his mind and thus lose his ability to predict.
So at this moment, even though he was angry, he was forcing himself to calm down.
After all, if the opponent can launch such a strike, he should be able to attack again. And next time, maybe it won't be such a test.
But the Black Dragon Slash was ultimately just a flying slash.
Because of the collision between the two, a hole was torn in the sky.
But lack of follow-up is a common problem of flying slash.
