Even though Arthur revealed the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, Blackbeard remained fearless.

The only thing Arthur feared was that golden light that could even kill Captain Jozu, who possessed the World's Strongest physical defense.

Therefore, Blackbeard had been paying attention to Arthur's movements, and whenever a golden light appeared around Arthur, he would immediately use the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit to interrupt it.

If the Thunder Spear were merely a power, it wouldn't have alarmed Blackbeard so much.

However, that attack could not only be used frequently, but it was also carried out using weapons.

Having just compressed the entire surface of Bill Island into a dark Sun, Blackbeard no longer possesses the ability to block this attack again.

'Call out--'

"Spread--!"

A deafening sonic boom echoed in his ears, Blackbeard immediately shouted and ran towards the distance without regard for anything else.

A split second before he spoke, high in the sky, Arthur, riding the King's Horse, hurled the Thunder Spear down toward Bill Island.

'Boom--!'

A beam of blue-white light slashed down with a speed surpassing even the Divine Judgment.

The next instant, a deafening explosion rang out.

A gigantic mushroom cloud rose into the sky, engulfing Arthur and King's Horse.

····Requesting flowers····

'Crackling sound... Rumble!'

The ground kept cracking and then suddenly collapsed.

Then, the sounds of heavy objects falling into the water rang out one after another.

"Ding! You have won this battle. Your total number of victories is now 63!"

"Ding! You have won this battle. Your total number of victories is now 64!"

"Ding! You have won this battle. Your total number of wins has reached 65!"

"Ding! You have won this battle. Your total number of wins is now 66!"

"Ding! You have won this battle. Your total number of wins is now 67!"

Before the mushroom cloud had even dissipated, a series of notification sounds echoed in Arthur's mind.

After a long, long time, the thick smoke dissipated, and Arthur and King's Horse finally recovered from their Elemental Transformation state.

Below him, half of Bill Island is missing, the other half resembling a small, deserted island.

Five streams of heat surged within Arthur's body simultaneously, like a raging torrent, rapidly spreading throughout his body.

Using Thunder Spear twice in succession caused the Mana consumed to recover rapidly, as if empowered by the Red Dragon Factor.

Furthermore, Arthur's attributes were strengthened and solidified layer by layer, allowing him to break through to a higher realm.

If Arthur were to focus his mind, he would notice that the light screen displaying his personal attributes had undergone a subtle change.

However, Arthur was not in the mood for that at the moment.

Because there were only five notification sounds in his mind.

The crew of Blackbeard Pirates, excluding San Juan Wolf, consisted of nine people.

In other words, that single Thunder Spear only took out five people.

Moreover, it remains unknown whether these five people are dead or alive.

However, the Bill Island below was desolate, with no people or bodies found except for the debris that had fallen earlier.

However, several thousand meters away in the sea, an incredibly strong wave of life was rapidly moving away.

'Sizzle sizzle...'

In an instant, blue and white light shone again in Arthur's hand.

Chapter 142 71-Game Winning Streak

'Whoosh-- Boom!!'

After Arthur charged up the Holy Lance in his hand, he hurled it directly into the sea in one direction.

A beam of blue-white light shot out, creating a series of sonic booms, and the resulting shockwaves, like invisible claws, cleaved the sea.

The instant it plunged into the sea, a mushroom cloud, no less spectacular than the one before, rose into the air.

"Hiss--"

King's Horse let out a neigh, stepped on air, and ran towards the mushroom cloud.

At the same time, Arthur reached out and grabbed at the air beside him again.

'Zzzzz... whoosh!'

'Boom!!'

As the currents converged, the silvery Holy Lance returned to his hand.

In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a pillar of pure silver lightning, which Arthur casually tossed aside with a "400".

No sooner had one wave subsided than another arose. Before the mushroom cloud created by the Thunder Spear had even dissipated, an even larger mushroom cloud followed.

"Ding! You have won this battle. Your total number of wins has reached 68!"

"Ding! You have won this battle. Your total number of wins has reached 69!"

"Ding! You have won this battle. Your total number of victories has reached 70!"

"Ding! You have won this battle. Your total number of victories is now 71!"

After the second Thunder Spear was fired, the system notification sounded in Arthur's mind once again.

Before the five streams of heat had completely dissipated, four more intense streams of heat emerged.

"Hmph, what tenacious vitality."

After the mushroom cloud dissipated, Arthur rode his King's Horse to the area of sea that had been continuously bombarded by the Thunder Spear. Seeing that the whirlpool had calmed down and nothing had floated on the sea, he gave a disdainful snort.

Blackbeard Pirates consisted of ten people, including Blackbeard himself.

Now, Arthur has received nine comprehensive enhancements in a row, some of which were provided by Blackbeard.

The only thing that didn't bring Arthur victory was San Juan Wolf, who was always diving in the sea beneath Bill Island.

That giant, larger than even the Woz, was practically a moving island.

Arthur unleashed his Thunder Spear, shattering half of Bill Island and instantly annihilating the entire Blackbeard Pirates.

Originally, he was ordered by Blackbeard not to stay behind and become a target, and to hide in the sea to keep an eye on Arthur's ship and prevent Arthur from escaping. However, San Juan Wolf unexpectedly became a key piece in saving Blackbeard Pirates.

After the island shattered and Blackbeard Pirates into the sea, San Juan Wolf swallowed them all and swam away quickly.

Arthur's two Thunder Spears were aimed at San Juan Wolf.

Unfortunately, the first attempt was ineffective; perhaps it had some effect, but it didn't reach the level recognized by the system.

So Arthur threw out a second shot.

As expected, apart from San Juan Wolf, who had successfully escaped by diving into the deep sea, the entire Blackbeard Pirates were wiped out.

Perhaps the casualties were heavy, or perhaps none of them died.

But none of that matters; Arthur has already gotten what he wanted from them.

Name: Arthur Pendragon

Name: Arthur Pendragon

Height: 181cm

Weight:69kg

Strength: B+(A)

Durability: A-(A)

Agility: A (A+)

Mana: B+

Lucky Lucky~EX

Inherent Skills: Instinct (A), Mana Burst (A), Giant Beast Hunting (A), Charisma (D)

Skills: Observation Haki (A++), Armament Haki (B), Swordsmanship (A+), Spear Technique (A)

..."

The above are Arthur's new four-dimensional attributes. This nine-times enhancement has made Arthur's strength advance by leaps and bounds.

Despite Arthur 'Blackbeard failure in the Paramount War preventing him from acquiring the Tremor-Tremor Fruit's power, his path to domination has encountered a serious obstacle.

However, he and his Sea Emperor F are still the original Four Emperors Sea Emperor F, which meets the hidden conditions of the system.

Moreover, due to his final appearance in the Paramount War, he safely left after confronting Whitebeard, leaving the surface of Marine Headquarters in ruins.

Coupled with news reports that Blackbeard Pirates had breached Impel Down, the world's largest Impel Down, recruited criminals from Infinite Hell as allies, and possessed the title of former Shichibukai, Blackbeard and his crew enjoyed immense prestige...

All ten of them meet the system's three recognition criteria.

The enhancements Arthur gained from defeating them, except for a few, were no less than those from Jozu.

This enhancement has improved Arthur's four main attributes. Except for Strength and Mana, which haven't reached the (A) level, his Endurance and Agility have reached the (A) level even without the Rumble-Rumble Fruit.

If Arthur were to use the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, he would fear no one.

In particular, his Agility (A+) rating gives Arthur an astonishing speed.

King's Horse, who shares the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, must possess even more astonishing flying abilities.

In addition to his four-dimensional attributes, Arthur's Spear Technique have also improved. He developed the Thunder Spear and, after using it multiple times, the system has rated Arthur's Spear Technique as (A) level.

Arthur didn't seem to care much about that.

To Arthur's delight, his Swordsmanship had finally reached the (A+) level.

No matter how powerful Spear Technique is, without the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, the Invisible Air, and the True Name Release, it's nowhere near as good as the Sea of Light.

The improvement in Swordsmanship and Spear Technique is evaluated by the system based on the power level of 0.8 displayed by Arthur.

The Thunder Spear, a move capable of destroying an entire island, directly upgraded Arthur's Spear Technique from (B) to (A).

In this battle, although Arthur did not use Excalibur, his Lightning Power- infused strikes possessed explosive power and strength surpassing those of his peers, directly raising the system's evaluation to a higher level.

The skill level upgrade doesn't provide a significant boost, but during combat, you'll notice the difference compared to your previous self.

The difficulties before the promotion, the ease after the promotion—that's the difference.

Arthur's strength had increased so dramatically before Whitebeard Pirates.

Blackbeard Pirates's contributions are truly immense.

Chapter 143 Nami's Initiative, She Doesn't Mind Being with Herself

'Slap... slap!!'

On the rolling waves of the sea, a strange phenomenon appeared in space.

Two figures appeared out of thin air and fell directly into the sea.

Just as they were about to fall into the sea, a pair of strong and powerful arms caught them steadily.

"Phew... that scared me to death, what happened?" Nami and Robin, wearing shorts and showing off their long, fair legs, tightly wrapped around Arthur, their arms around his neck on either side, as they nestled into his familiar embrace.

Looking down at the sea, Nami exclaimed in shock.
