"Ow, ow, ow, ow!!!"
Then, drawn in by Blackbeard's gravitational pull, Hades instantly coated his axe blade in dense Armament Haki,
He gathered power into a slashing stance, then instantly carved another bloody gash into Blackbeard.
"Damn it!!!"
Blackbeard was being pushed to the brink too. He began fighting at full strength, combining the Dark-Dark Fruit's power with Haki-enhanced martial arts as he clashed head-on with Hades.
