Pande was unable to move, entangled in black mist, and no matter how much he struggled, it was useless.

Seeing this, the Marine Headquarters said, "Record this. Be careful of Teach's dark aura. Don't let it grab you." Tsuru said seriously. She could see just how powerful Pande was. If they couldn't break free even with this, then Teach's dark aura was too troublesome.

The personnel responsible for recording important intelligence immediately wrote down what Staff Officer He had said.

Besides them, people from other factions also became very serious.

The giant eagle that the previous king had transformed into was unable to fly in the sky; its body seemed to be pulled down. What was going on? Even the powerful air currents created by Teach had no effect on the giant eagle.

However, he actually fell from the sky. "This seems a bit like the captain's ability." The Flying Pirates, the aerial kingdom established by Golden Lion Shiki, have dozens of islands floating in the sky.

A pirate, observing this scene, seemed to have realized something and couldn't help but say something.

"Hmm, although its power is different from my Float-Float Fruit's, its nature is similar," Shiki thought for a moment and nodded.

"Then it must be downward attraction. The Dark-Dark Fruit has an absorptive force, which is attraction. This downward attraction creates an effect similar to gravity." Rhine Golden Lion, was a scholar and quickly figured out this ability. He could naturally obtain information about the Dark-Dark Fruit.

"I didn't expect it to be like this; that's rather frightening."

This moment didn't last long. With a shout of "Darkness Devour," all the buildings on the black mist instantly sank, were swallowed up, and disappeared, leaving only a desolate land.

Seeing this scene with my own eyes, rather than comparing a few photos, brought a far greater shock than before. The enormous sound was so immersive that it left only the onlookers, Teach laughing maniacally, and Pande with his tentacles torn off one by one.

From a high vantage point, Teach's ability covers the entire palace. However, Teach is located on the east side of the palace, and according to the principle of a central circle, the area that Teach's attack can cover could be even larger, although the limit he can reach is unclear.

Watching Teach release the palace he had devoured, turning it into countless fragments, as if it had been squeezed and pulverized by a powerful force, the corpses of the guards he had devoured were all reduced to bloody, mangled remains.

A sense of fear crept into their hearts; if they were to be consumed by Teach's power, they would certainly not survive.

"Captain, watch it again. The power of this move is still as astonishing."

"Even if you can fly, it's useless. In other words, you can only escape before the captain's ability spreads, and you can't stay within the range of that ability."

"As expected of the captain, he can unleash such a powerful attack right after eating Devil Fruit."

This move is indeed somewhat unsolvable. Flying is useless; one will be attracted by downward gravity, essentially creating a no-fly zone. Once entangled by the black energy, one cannot move, and no amount of struggling will be effective. Even Pande, who was born with great strength and consumed a powerful Ancient Species, could not break free, indicating that there are not many people in this world who can escape the restraints of Teach's move.

Teach's black aura spreads extremely quickly. Some people are observing and wondering if they can avoid this attack. Of course, it is possible, but when fighting Teach, even if you have great strength, the ability to break free from the black aura's restraints, and the ability to fly under immense pressure, you will still be greatly affected in the battle.

Next, it was predictable that Teach's strength would increase significantly, but Pande's strength was not weak either, and Pande would definitely lose, widening the gap in strength between the two. However, with Pande's strength, he could easily hold on for a few more hours. But the result was completely unexpected.

He withstood Pande's powerful attack head-on. Although the reason was unknown, it was definitely related to the power Teach had gained. It was another binding, but this time the binding was even stronger and controlled by Teach. Even though Pande's body had shrunk, he had no way to avoid it.

A simple, powerful strike killed Pande, piercing his heart.

This time, it displayed formidable attack power, which Pande was completely unable to withstand. This thrust sent a chill down the spines of many powerful figures, who wondered if they could withstand such a move.

A single restraint, a single piercing, and a powerful adversary was eliminated, thus ending the war.

They were secretly thinking to themselves that they absolutely could not be caught by Teach's darkness. This ability was absolutely bizarre to them, and even somewhat unsolvable, especially when combined with Teach's powerful physical skills.

It's almost over, but it has brought a completely new experience to the audience. With its gentle music, the quality is several times better than before.

The members of the Night Pirates began to assemble, appearing before everyone. It must be said, they were truly powerful, and they exuded an upward spirit, all of them young faces.

Some people began to fear the potential of the Night Pirates. Teach's strength was much higher than they had anticipated. After all, comparisons were necessary. Although it had been mentioned in the newspapers before, they had generally underestimated Pande's strength, which led them to question Teach's abilities.

All the members of the Night Pirates gathered here, and many powerful figures focused their attention on Rediat, the stranger who had suddenly appeared next to Teach. Judging from their conversation, he should be a Night Pirates.

However, none of them knew when this new character had appeared in the Night Pirates.

The speed that Rediat displayed upon his sudden appearance amazed many people; with such speed, his strength was naturally not lacking.

In a pirate crew, strength and status can be largely determined by their positioning. It's clear that this unfamiliar young powerhouse is quite strong, even very strong, and is closest to Teach, while the other members are positioned further away.

Rediat's performance made him memorable to many, and he deserves our attention, especially from the Marine Headquarters.

"Quickly, send someone to investigate his identity," Sengoku immediately ordered.

"Haha, this person looks somewhat familiar, but I've never seen him before." Garp looked at Rediat, scratched his head, and laughed.

Not only him, but many people who saw Rediat felt a sense of familiarity, but they didn't know why, and just felt that it was their imagination.

"Haha, Rediat, looks like you've been exposed. You're probably going to attract attention now." Teach smiled at Rediat when he saw him appear.

"Yes, I was prepared, and this is just right," Rediat said calmly. This only brought him the attention of the sea, not fame.

Finally, the members of the Night Pirates brought in countless treasures, hundreds of billions of Beli piled up there. Before, it was just a picture, but now that they saw the real treasure, it was almost blinding.

That much treasure could buy an entire country.

The scene ends there. Finally, there's an image of Teach, radiating black energy, with a confident and arrogant smile on his face, his claws outstretched. He's dressed in a black captain's coat, fully displaying Teach's imposing presence, which, combined with the power we've witnessed before, makes him even more Teach.

The words "Dark Emperor" slowly appeared on the screen. This was Teach's title, meaning "Emperor of Darkness," and together with the image, it was deeply imprinted in their minds.

The name of "Dark Emperor" Marshall D. Teach truly began to resound throughout the entire sea.

Those who watched the video were deeply moved. Marshall D. Teach, the rising Great Pirate, Night Pirates, another rising Great Pirate crew, showed them that the Night Pirates were capable of influencing the situation on the seas, and they had that power.

Those who initially disagreed with the newspaper's descriptions are now silent.

The impact of this image on the sea has only just begun, attracting countless admiring gazes. Many people have begun to Teach as their role model, drawn by his immense power, his willingness to destroy a powerful nation for a single Devil Fruit, his freedom, his unbridled will, and the countless treasures he possesses that are beyond their comprehension.

Roger's One Piece is still a mystery, while Teach has obtained so much treasure—that much is evident.

However, what is needed is immense power. With immense power, one can obtain everything, and even destroying a country would be an easy task.

This is the effect of fame; more people set sail, influenced by Teach. Some took Teach as their role model, while others wanted to join the Night Pirates.

However, there is no doubt that this image propelled the Great Pirate Era forward, causing the already rampant Great Pirate Era to spiral out of control.

"Gurararara! The Dark Emperor? He's fully grown up now." In the Whitebeard Pirates' waters, aboard the Moby Dick, Whitebeard gulped down his liquor, thinking to himself as he downed the entire bottle in one go, tossed it aside, and laughed heartily.

"That guy." In the New World, on an island called Moonlight Island, the territory of the Moonlight Pirates, a demon with two horns on its head, "Moonlight" Moria looked at the scene before him, deeply shocked and unable to calm down for a long time.

After a long while, he finally uttered these few words.

"Is he already that strong? But I won't fall behind." Moria clenched his fists. His strength had improved rapidly during this period, but he still needed to continue to work hard.

In a short period of time, they entered the New World, which was also the time when the pirates and the Navy were at New World. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Moria set his sights on a good island, defeated the pirate crew that originally occupied the island, and successfully made the island the territory of the Moonlight Pirates.

He then began his journey of development, growing stronger and improving his own and his subordinates' strength. Some pirate crews came to challenge him, but he defeated them all. At this time, the name "Gecko" Moria began to resound in the New World.

Now that he has witnessed Teach's strength, he knows he will suffer a crushing defeat. If, before Teach ate the Dark-Dark Fruit, he could still hold him back with his own abilities, but he wouldn't be able to hurt Teach. The difference between his Observation Haki and Armament Haki is huge, and it's even more so when facing Teach who has eaten the Dark-Dark Fruit. Even if he uses his strongest technique, Shadows Assembled.

"Hahaha! You've gotten stronger! Let's have another match next time." In the New World, on an unnamed Beast Island, a tall, blond man, exuding a fierce aura, wearing a military uniform and white gloves, watched the image before Bullet. "I've become even stronger too."

This was none other than Douglas Bullet, the "Heir of the Devil" who had been missing on the high seas for a long time. In the past two years, Bullet had been very active, challenging the world's strongest man, Whitebeard, Golden Lion Shiki, and the Marine Garp the Hero. Although he was defeated in the end, he left alive.

Besides these, there are other overlords and powerful figures in the New World, such as Big Mom, Kaido of the Beasts, Demon Caesar, Demon Sword Apophis, John, Silver Axe, etc. Among them, there are victories and defeats, but the differences are not large, and the number of people defeated is countless.

After his last appearance, when he challenged Whitebeard, Bullet realized the power he had not yet mastered, began his path to becoming stronger, and also witnessed the gap between himself and the top-tier fighters who were on par with Roger.

"Hey, how am I supposed to compete with him? He's so terrifying now. I feel like I'm not strong enough. I need to develop for another two years." On an island in the East China Sea, Buggy stared wide-eyed at Teach's formidable strength and muttered to himself.

Buggy is now much stronger; it's obvious that he's become taller and stronger.

"Hey, Captain Buggy, can we set sail now?" Behind him was a large ship, with the crew he had recruited on board.

Now, he is ready to set sail. With his own strength, the power inspired by Teach, and his own hard work, he is now able to use his abilities skillfully and will no longer exhaust all his strength with a single punch like he did at the beginning.

Now, his strength has greatly increased. In a short period of time, he has amassed a large fortune, bought a ship, made some minor modifications to turn it into his own pirate ship, and recruited some companions. There are only a dozen or so people, but it is more than enough for him to go out to sea.

Buggy clenched his fists tightly. "Hmph! Anyway, the Night Pirates will be leaving the four seas soon, so what's there to worry about?" Buggy muttered to himself. Buggy Teach, mainly because of Teach's strength.

Turning his head, Buggy waved and laughed, "Guys, Uncle Buggy's here! Let's get ready to set sail!" With that, he happily ran over.

He has changed a lot compared to before; he is very confident, which comes from his strength, and his personality has also changed a lot.

"Damn Shanks, you must be in the East Blue. I'm going to find you and teach you a lesson so you can never go treasure hunting again." With this goal in mind, Buggy set sail.

Although his current ability is very powerful, the inability to swim remains a lifelong regret for Buggy, who yearns for treasure. He must teach Shanks, who caused his misfortune, a lesson he deserves.
