Chapter 176 - Chapter 177: Black Hole Swallows Whitebeard

"Not good!"

When Shanks sensed that Whitebeard had taken a punch from Yami and his aura intensity instantly dropped by a large margin, his expression immediately changed drastically.

Disregarding the risk of intervening and potentially being pincer-attacked by the shockwaves and Haki of the two, Shanks directly turned into an afterimage. Appearing behind Yami like a teleportation, he slashed towards Yami with his sword laced with dark red lightning.

Unfortunately, his attack missed.

Although Shanks was extremely fast, it was not true teleportation after all.

Yami was not only a Teleport Fruit ability user but also had his Operation Room open continuously.

As long as he wished, he could appear anywhere on the island in a second.

So, with his back to Shanks, without needing to make any movement, he teleported behind Whitebeard.

Just as he was about to smash another punch at Whitebeard, Whitebeard suppressed the shockwaves and transverse gravity wrecking his insides. Forcing himself to recover, he wrapped his fist in a transparent white halo, turned around, and hammered forcefully towards Yami.

In an instant, the atmosphere shattered.

Yami did not take Whitebeard's punch head-on; he vanished with another teleport.

After the shockwave tore through the earth, causing the ground to tremble, Whitebeard's figure suddenly vanished into thin air again.

When he reappeared, he was in a very desolate location.

Seeing this scene, Kaido, who was circling in the sky looking for an opportunity, could no longer sit still. He immediately transformed into his Hybrid Form and descended from the sky.

Shanks, sensing Whitebeard's aura location, also quickly went to support.

Not only him, but the Whitebeard Pirates watching this scene, and even various factions, also reacted one after another.

"Not good, that guy wants to steal Pops' Tremor-Tremor Fruit!"

"No, I have to go support Pops!"

"Stop right there, no one is allowed to go! That level of battle is not something you can participate in."

"..."

"Whitebeard is injured. He absolutely cannot let Black Hole Yami steal the Paramecia Tremor-Tremor Fruit, otherwise, no one will be able to stop him."

"Where are the Three Admirals? Have they reached that island yet? Let them all go assist Whitebeard, openly or secretly, as long as Whitebeard isn't killed."

"If it really doesn't work, let the Three Admirals join forces to kill Whitebeard and destroy his corpse!"

"..."

Undoubtedly, the Whitebeard Pirates and the Five Elders were anxious.

All the Division Commanders and affiliated pirate captains wished they could immediately go support their father, but they were stopped by Marco, Jozu, and others who were equally anxious.

They were more anxious than anyone because their father was in danger.

But precisely because of this, they had to remain calm.

If they rashly went to help, not only would they fail to help their father, but they would also become a burden.

Even Shanks and Kaido were wary of that level of battle and dared not intervene without finding the right timing.

If they went, it would only make their father afraid to go all out, fearing the attacks would affect them.

In that case, they would only be a disservice and harm their father.

Only Teach, aside from being anxious, felt incredibly complex emotions.

If Teach was the person in the world who hated Yami the most when his dream was shattered back then, now, Teach was filled with admiration and worship for Yami.

Teach was very similar to Doflamingo; both were ambitious figures.

Because of this, they both felt a boldness and aura from Yami that they could not match.

Possessing a constitution that allowed him to become a dual-fruit user or even a multi-fruit user, Teach felt that even if he obtained the Logia Dark-Dark Fruit, he could not achieve Yami's level.

Now, Yami was about to obtain the Paramecia Tremor-Tremor Fruit that he worshipped and desired the most.

In the first moment, Teach actually did not feel jealousy, but... anticipation!

He was actually anticipating that Yami could succeed and become the ultimate form he dared not even dream of!

He believed that Yami, possessing so many fruit abilities, only needed to obtain the final Paramecia Tremor-Tremor Fruit to become an existence stronger than Rocks, perhaps the first rule-breaking supreme being in history!

As for the Five Elders, they simply felt panic and fear, immediately issuing the highest order to Sengoku.

Unfortunately, whether the Three Admirals were on their way or waiting for orders outside the large island, by the time they rushed to the battlefield, everything would be too late.

Having transferred Whitebeard's position, Yami immediately fired on all cylinders, launching a storm-like offensive against the World's Strongest Man again.

The terrifying gravity, amplified by the More-More Fruit, crushed the ground for several miles around, causing it to collapse and form a crater at a speed visible to the naked eye.

No matter how strong a person or beast was, once they stepped into this domain formed by gravity, they would be crushed to the ground, or even crushed into a meat patty or a pile of mud on the spot.

If Haki couldn't resist all fruit abilities, Whitebeard wouldn't be able to move at all right now.

Even consuming powerful Haki to resist the crushing gravity, Whitebeard's body became incredibly sluggish.

Coupled with the punch he took from Yami earlier, Whitebeard was now in a state similar to when he was hit by Akainu's Hell Hound during the Summit War. The intense pain and his elderly consciousness prevented him from using Observation Haki.

So when Yami launched a storm-like offensive again, Whitebeard found it very difficult to cope.

He only dared to use Conqueror's Coating to greet Yami, not daring to use the Paramecia Tremor-Tremor Fruit at all, fearing that the stiffness in the instant he shattered the atmosphere would become a fatal opening.

However, no matter how cautious Whitebeard was, he was soon hit by Yami's second punch.

Because even if Yami used Hell Tour with full force, with his body amplified by the More-More Fruit, his speed was still as fast as lightning.

With just a few Soru steps and teleports, Yami successfully created an opening on Whitebeard and smashed a heavy punch onto Whitebeard's shoulder.

Following up with a kick, Whitebeard's aura fluctuated, becoming as weak and small as a candle flame.

The next second, Yami released a large amount of black mist with both hands, rubbed a circle in the air, and shouted softly: "100-fold Gravity Black Hole Swallow!"

A huge black hole immediately appeared.

The terrifying gravitational pull was like a giant invisible hand, directly grabbing Whitebeard, who was suppressed by gravity and too weak to instantly use powerful Haki to resist, into the black hole.

This was also the first time Yami's black hole had swallowed an enemy, and it was the World's Strongest Man.

After Whitebeard entered the black hole space, the crushing and compression abilities, amplified a hundred times by the More-More Fruit, directly extinguished Whitebeard's final flame of life.

The demonic power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, known as the strongest Paramecia, was also directly devoured by Yami inside the black hole space.
