Pirates: Trainer on the Straw Hat Ship.

"Dark fruit?"

"It can plunder the abilities of people with abilities, and it can also allow you to have multiple fruit abilities at the same time!?"

"There is such a powerful fruit ability in the world!?"

Following a report from World Economic News, the eyes of countless powerful people around the world were instantly mobilized, focusing on the name [Marshall D. Teach].

……

……

"Jie hahahaha... So this is your power, Teach!"

"You really have eaten up all the limelight this time!"

Thousands of meters above the blue sky, dozens of small islands magically hover in mid-air, connected to each other through graceful waterways, forming a magnificent natural wonder.

Among them, in the middle and largest sky island, there is a huge palace with gold as the main color, which stands tall and majestic.

The golden lion sat on the throne in the main hall of the palace, looking at the black beard next to him with a half-joking, half-suspicious look.

After all, it was mentioned in the newspaper that the second fruit ability Blackbeard wanted to plunder was his Piao Piao Fruit ability!

Recalling the greedy look in Blackbeard's eyes when he and Blackbeard first met, Golden Lion was very sure...

Even if the content in this newspaper is biased, it is definitely not a nonsense report.

"a ha ha ha……"

A look of embarrassment flashed across Blackbeard's face as he was stared at by the golden lion.

However, Blackbeard, who is the best actor in One Piece, grasped his emotions instantly and came to the Golden Lion with a glass of soju. After maintaining a safe and polite distance, he poured the wine into him and said:

"Senior Shi Ji, can't you listen to the slander from outside?!"

"The two of us are partners who hit it off immediately!"

"Have you forgotten the tacit cooperation we had when we were killing everyone in Impel Down City!?"

"Um……"

Looking at the natural-looking black beard in front of him, the golden lion immediately groaned and picked up the wine glass in front of him.

All of a sudden!

He made eye contact with Blackbeard, who just raised his head.

The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

Although a mere report exposed many secrets of Blackbeard, it also made Golden Lion more wary of him.

But who can become a legend without a bit of arrogance in his heart.

At least in the Golden Lion's view, the benefits Blackbeard can bring to him far outweigh the dangers he poses.

Blackbeard also needs the Golden Lion to provide a safe place and use his status as a legendary pirate to endorse himself, so that he can secretly recruit the criminals he values ​​​​under his command.

Because this time they were cooperating with Golden Lion, they used the special technology provided by Indygo to briefly cut off the communication equipment of Impel City, and then cleared the entire Impel City as quickly as possible.

With the combined efforts of the two of them, not even Magellan's poison could stop him in the slightest.

In the end, the Golden Lion directly waved his hand, relying on the absolute convenience of the Piao Piao Fruit, and brought all the criminals who were willing to leave with them on the third floor of the Push City back to their own Sky Island territory.

Generally speaking, the contents of this newspaper did not affect the cooperative relationship between the two people too much, except for making Golden Lion more wary of Blackbeard.

Even after learning that Blackbeard's dark power could rob others of their fruits, the Golden Lion valued this dangerous partner even more!

……

……

Time passes quickly.

In the blink of an eye, several days have passed since Red revealed Blackbeard's abilities.

I don’t know if it’s because of the recent big news that has broken out one after another, so that this report about the Dark Fruit, except for the concern of a few concerned people, did not cause too many waves in the world.

But at least...

The goal that Chihong wanted to achieve has been successfully achieved!

……

……

"The pirates who were imprisoned in Impel Down appeared in the West Sea, knocked out a fruit user and took him away!?"

"I didn't expect the golden lion's endurance to be even lower than I thought!"

"Is it because you know you don't have long to live?"

In Labu's abdominal world, Chi Hong, who had just finished plowing the land for Usopp, received the information sent back from members of the [Akatsuki] organization, and the corners of his mouth suddenly raised slightly.

As the saying goes, when you find a cockroach at home, it means that there is already a group of cockroaches in your home.

Now that the Impel City pirates can be seen, it means that Golden Lion and the others have already begun to move on a large scale.

"Xihai..." A flash of light flashed in his red eyes, and he immediately said directly to Xiao on the other side of the phone:

"Spread this information to the black market, and then continue to observe the trends there."

"The Navy and the World Government have suffered setbacks one after another recently, and their ability to rule the sea has been greatly reduced..."

"At this time, it is a great opportunity for all kinds of monsters and monsters to come out of their caves."

“I just don’t know who will be the one favored by the sea in the end?”

"What do you think, Luffy?"

Chi Hong suddenly tilted his head and looked at Luffy who was eating so much next to him.

Instead, Luffy got a puzzled look on his face: "What are you talking about, Red? You're babbling..."

"If you don't start it, Sanji's food will get cold!"

"Hey, hey, hey~" Looking at the captain who only knew how to eat, Chi Hong suddenly smiled helplessly.

He racked his brains to help Luffy suppress his future competitors, but this guy only had food and food on his mind...

He has really paid too much for this family!

……

……

"This day has finally arrived!!!"

In the largest dock in the Capital of Seven Waters, everyone in the Straw Hats stood excitedly next to a huge curtain, their eyes shining with anticipation.

At the same time, a group of elite shipwrights from Carrera Shipbuilding Company slowly left the scene.

Although they were short of manpower, Bingshan also allowed them to participate in part of the Meili's transformation work...

But for the truly core secret areas, they were all created by the joint efforts of Franky and Bingshan.

"You guys got here really fast!"

Franky, who was standing on both sides of the curtain with Bingshan, saw the people in straw hats, and an excited smile suddenly appeared on his face.

Obviously, at this time, he was also very much looking forward to the moment when the new Merry was unveiled in front of the Straw Hats.

Frankie couldn't wait and grinned directly. His moving body made a sound like metal friction, and he glanced at everyone.

A smart look moistened his eyes.

"I have to admit, you are really a group of pirates that can bring about miracles!"
