The villagers on the surrounding islands curiously picked up telescopes and watched what was happening on Ye Yu's side.
Those pirates they had once stood no chance of defeating were now truly dropping one after another like dead pigs, bleeding without end!
They had been beaten into such a miserable state by one person alone!
"Who... who exactly is this young man?!"
Their lips trembled. Amid their shock, they could not help but wonder.
"A battle of this level makes the whole island tremble with a casual move. Could he... could he be one of the Four Emperors' men?" A villager suddenly thought of something and spoke in shock.
"The Four Emperors...?!"
The moment everyone heard those words, their hearts jolted!
Hiss...
They all sucked in a breath. The Four Emperors commanded the strongest pirate crews in this world and represented absolute authority!
"My God, what exactly has Robina Island gone through in just a few days? First, a group of powerful pirates claiming to be from the New World threw the entire island into chaos. And now, a powerful man from one of the Four Emperors' crews has come to kill those pirates."
"I just hope this young man isn't a cruel person. Otherwise, he might be even more terrifying than those pirates from before!"
Lily blinked. "Don't worry, he must be a good person! He came to save us!"
Ye Yu knew nothing of what was happening in the distance. Right now, he was only thinking about how to kill that disgusting bastard, Blackbeard Teach!
Blackbeard Teach was furious from humiliation. His subordinates had actually been so useless? Even Burgess, with that powerful physique, had been knocked unconscious by Conqueror's Haki?
"Zehahahahaha! I fought so hard to get where I am today! How could I possibly be defeated by a brat like you who just crawled out into the world?!" Driven into a corner, Blackbeard instead felt a trace of fighting spirit rise within him.
"In the Whitebeard Pirates, other than Whitebeard, I, Blackbeard Teach, will not lose to anyone! Your Conqueror's Haki can't knock me down, can it? Zero Division Captain Ye Yu!" Blackbeard Teach roared.
At some point, a huge amount of dark matter had gathered beneath Blackbeard Teach's feet!
Ye Yu looked at Blackbeard before him in mild surprise. He had originally thought that Blackbeard Teach would kneel and beg for mercy. It seemed Teach's previous cowardice had all been an act!
Ye Yu slowly took two steps toward Blackbeard Teach and gave him a pleased smile.
"That's more like it, Teach. Otherwise, this would be far too boring." Ye Yu spoke calmly, looking at Blackbeard with anticipation. He hoped Blackbeard would put on a good performance and not lose too quickly.
"Zehahahaha! Brat, it's still too early to say who will come out alive!"
At that moment, layer after layer of black mist eerily appeared around the entire battlefield!
The dark matter beneath Blackbeard's feet had somehow flowed beneath Ye Yu's feet.
In the forest a kilometer away from the battlefield, Village Chief Rona wore a worried expression.
"Oh no, oh no... that Blackbeard pirate is powerful too!"
The people around him looked over one after another. Because of Blackbeard, the whole sky had turned incomparably dark, and all the islanders felt a nauseating sense of dread in their hearts.
Lily picked up a telescope and looked in Ye Yu's direction. Ye Yu still wore the same faint smile as before, utterly calm.
Lily slowly let out a breath.
"That young man isn't afraid. There's no need to worry!" Lily's pink lips trembled as she encouraged the people around her.
On the battlefield, Blackbeard burst into another demonic laugh.
"Zehahahaha! Looks like your Observation Haki is pretty ordinary, huh? My darkness has already touched you, and you didn't even notice, did you? Hahahaha!" Blackbeard Teach laughed madly.
Ye Yu lowered his head and looked at his feet. They were already surrounded by darkness.
He slightly raised his head and looked at Blackbeard with utter disdain. They were nothing more than cheap tricks.
"My Observation Haki isn't ordinary. I simply don't have it. But... even if I didn't notice, what can you do about it, Blackbeard?" Ye Yu said calmly.
"Hm?" Blackbeard Teach was somewhat surprised. His Conqueror's Haki was so powerful, yet he did not know Observation Haki? Still... it did not seem like he was lying.
"Zehahahaha! You little greenhorn, you're telling me your weakness so quickly? You can die now, brat! Black Vortex!" Blackbeard said arrogantly.
In Blackbeard's eyes, Ye Yu might have been powerful, but his combat experience was practically nonexistent. Telling his opponent his weakness before the battle was even over—wasn't that idiotic?
The dark matter beneath Ye Yu's feet grew increasingly dense. At Blackbeard Teach's command, it produced a powerful suction force, like a summons from hell. Everything around it was dragged into that darkness!
Even the forest a kilometer away was whipped by fierce winds because of that terrifying force. The villagers watching the battle clung tightly to nearby trees to keep from being pulled over!
And at the very center of that terrifying suction was Ye Yu's feet. One could only imagine how great a force Ye Yu had to withstand! What Blackbeard wanted was to pull Ye Yu into that darkness, then crush him!
"Die beneath my Black Vortex!"
Yet Ye Yu still stood where he was as if nothing had happened.
"Die beneath my Black Vortex!"
Blackbeard continued shouting. Though the dark energy grew even more powerful and more and more objects were sucked underground, Ye Yu remained completely composed, even yawning.
Ye Yu had simply used his Conqueror's Haki to create an equal and opposite force. The suction of that dark matter could do absolutely nothing to him! In fact, if Ye Yu wished, he could knead that dark matter into any shape he could imagine!
"Is this all you've got, Teach? It seems you can't entertain me after all. How boring. Let's wrap this up!" The trace of amusement Ye Yu had felt toward Blackbeard vanished in an instant.
A massive transparent Buddha Palm formed from Conqueror's Haki suddenly appeared in the sky and came crashing down toward Blackbeard Teach!
Blackbeard Teach's Observation Haki sensed something wrong. He looked up at the sky and immediately revealed an exaggerated expression of terror!
Conqueror's Haki... Conqueror's Haki Manifestation?! An attack method comparable to long-range Conqueror's Coating! The clothes on Blackbeard Teach's back were already soaked through with sweat!
No matter how Blackbeard imagined it, he could not believe that a young man under twenty had actually reached the realm of Conqueror's Haki Manifestation that One Piece Roger had once spoken of!!
"Th-this... this terrifying power... if it hits me, I'll die!!!" The fat, dark-skinned Blackbeard panted violently, staring blankly at the sky as he spoke in terror through his gapped teeth.
The intense wind pressure arrived first, flattening Blackbeard's ugly face and making it look even uglier.
It was too fast. There was no way to dodge!
