Final Chapter (Seventeen)

"Zehehehe! Go to hell!"

Teach's attacks grew more and more ferocious, leaving the leader of the Nineteen Kings he was fighting in utter misery! The power of the Dark-Dark Fruit rendered him unable to use his own Devil Fruit ability at all, while most of his attacks and killing moves required his fire abilities as support! It could be said that Teach's Dark-Dark Fruit had weakened him by seventy percent!

He could no longer even barely withstand Teach's attacks! He could only rely on his powerful Armament Haki and formidable physique, using the blood flowing from his body to hold Teach back!

Elsewhere, Whitebeard had also engaged Joy Boy! Even with Whitebeard fighting at full strength, he was still struggling against the ruler from eight hundred years ago! He could only barely hold back his opponent's advance, but given enough time, openings would inevitably appear!

At the thought of this, Teach increased the force in his hands! Among the Pirate Alliance, he was the only one capable of defeating the current Joy Boy! Whitebeard's strength was not weak either, but he was ultimately a step behind. Teach did not have a second Senzu Bean, and he did not want to take this risk!

"Foolish king, our battle should end here!" After shattering one of his opponent's arms, Teach no longer wanted to waste time talking. He swiftly wrapped Conqueror's Haki around his right claw. Relying on the strength and speed the system had elevated to their peak, his right claw easily tore through the king's throat!

"You lowly commoner! You—!"

That king's eyes widened, as if he could not believe this cruel reality. Yet everything he said seemed so pale and powerless. He still fell to the ground unwillingly, his wide-open eyes seemingly glimpsing the glory he had once possessed...
