Ordinary cannonballs were completely ineffective against Shiryu of the Rain.
Holding Blackbeard with one hand, he drew his sword with the other and slashed, cutting every cannonball to pieces.
"Thunder Tribulation!"
At that moment, Uchiha Tamaharu used the Dōjutsu of his Mangekyo.
A bolt of lightning fell from the sky and shot straight toward Shiryu of the Rain.
But Shiryu reacted with Observation Haki and quickly threw Blackbeard Teach above his head.
"Damn it!"
Blackbeard also realized the attack was coming from above. It had to be another lightning bolt.
He was also furious that Shiryu of the Rain had used him as a shield and thrown him over his head.
"Kurouzu!"
But he had no choice but to block it. If he didn't, he'd have to take the hit himself.
And there was too little time. He had no other options.
The one-meter-thick bolt of lightning was completely absorbed by the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit. But since it was an element without a physical form, Blackbeard couldn't throw it back out to attack his enemy.
Then the lightning kept striking, and the arcs grew thicker and thicker.
Blackbeard tanked every strike, while Shiryu of the Rain kept throwing him into the air and using Geppo to move around, turning it into a relay.
"Observation Haki is certainly troublesome."
"But the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit is formidable too. It can absorb anything, unless Blackbeard Teach can't take any more."
Uchiha Tamaharu had formed a rough assessment.
Aside from Blackbeard, the others were roughly on par with the Supernovas, but most of them had mastered Two-color Haki.
They were seasoned pirates. They couldn't break through to the level of the Four Emperors, and they still fell short of someone like Doflamingo among the Shichibukai. They hadn't achieved Devil Fruit
