Power Upgraded Again (1)

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Boom...

With the Night Guy power unleashed, Roya was like a frenzied god of death.

He pummeled Blackbeard Teach without pause.

Teach took blow after blow, utterly unable to fight back.

"Captain!"

"Damn it!"

"I have to help him!"

"You lot, find a way to hold those two off!"

Jesus Burgess could no longer stand watching.

If this went on, Teach, who had not had a single chance to fight back, would be beaten to death.

So...

Someone had to save Teach now!

Granted...

The members of the Blackbeard Pirates had no real affection for one another.

But they did have a working relationship. Each wanted something from the others, and Burgess had yet to get what he wanted from following Teach.

So he could not let Teach die yet.

Otherwise...

If Teach died, Burgess would never get what he wanted.

"Fine!"

"Leave them to us!"

"..."

The other Blackbeard Pirates said nothing more. They nodded and agreed.

After all, beyond their working relationship...

Not one of them was a fool!

If Teach died here, none of them would make it out alive!

So...

They all wanted to keep him alive.

Sure enough...

The others each brought out everything they had, using their full strength to hold off Mr. Issho and Marco.

Meanwhile...

Burgess seized his chance and charged straight at Roya.

"Roya!"

"Let our captain go!"

Burgess shouted as he rushed forward.

But...

In the next instant...

Roya reached out and seized Burgess by the throat.

"Who do you think you are?"

"You?"

"You think you can save Blackbeard Teach?"

Roya glared at Burgess as he spoke.

"Hmph..."

"You..."

But...

Before Burgess could finish...

Crack!

With the Night Guy power, the ultimate Taijutsu, unleashed, Roya snapped Burgess's neck!

That was right!

Burgess was dead!

Everyone there
