"Ha ha ha, this is the consequence of daring to challenge our Whitebeard Pirates!" Blackbeard Teach laughed as he looked at the enemy pirates who had been beaten to a pulp.
The members of the Whitebeard Pirates' Fourth Division also burst into laughter.
" Teach, let's go, let's go to the city ahead and have a good drink!" said Thatch, the Fourth Division Captain. "Yes, Captain Thatch!"
After a battle, the Fourth Division of the Whitebeard Pirates invited each other to drink and have a banquet in the territory they ruled.
" Teach, with your strength, you could easily be a captain. Your Pops has said it several times, why won't you accept it?" Thatch said to Teach while drinking.
"Captain? Me? Forget it. I'm not cut out for that. You know me, I can't even take care of myself, how can I take care of the team like the captain!" Teach said with a smile.
In the past two years, the Whitebeard Pirates have grown even stronger.
Everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates knew this.
Although they are currently at peace with the Azure Emperor Pirates, war is only a matter of time.
That will be the time to decide who will be the true ruler of the New World.
They are all accumulating strength now.
As for why they didn't take advantage of the Azure Emperor Pirates' battle with the Big Mom Pirates and the Beasts Pirates to directly attack and wipe out the Azure Emperor Pirates Azure Emperor Pirates, that would be the pride of the Whitebeard Pirates.
They are the Whitebeard Pirates.
If they had to join forces with the Big Mom Pirates and the Beasts Pirates, they could defeat the Azure Emperor Pirates.
Even if they ultimately defeat the Azure Emperor Pirates, they won't feel any pride or honor.
They are the Whitebeard Pirates; they have their own honor.
Their honor does not allow them to do such a thing.
As the Whitebeard Pirates grew, they became increasingly powerful.
This means we need to add more squads.
This necessitates the recruitment of more squad leaders who are qualified to serve as squad leaders.
Teach's strength and experience are more than enough to make him a squad leader.
Whitebeard also intended for him to be the division commander.
But Teach kept making excuses.
"Haha, you're just too lazy!"
"Let's not talk about that anymore, cheers!" Teach said with a smile.
With his ambition, he'd rather become the World's Strongest captain.
Otherwise, he could live a mediocre life as an ordinary crew member in the Whitebeard Pirates.
He doesn't care about being a squad leader.
The group drank wildly, some got drunk, and the rest went out to stroll around.
Teach was also carrying a bottle of good wine, drinking it as he walked.
All these years, he still hasn't seen the Devil Fruit he wants.
He even doubted whether his judgment was wrong.
Do I really have to live such a mediocre life?
Teach kept drinking and unknowingly arrived at a secluded cliff.
Suddenly he sensed something.
He suddenly turned around and looked at a large rock to the side.
At that moment, a person was sitting on the large rock.
He was also holding a bottle of liquor and drinking a little.
"Hahaha, I never expected to see you in a place like this. What brings someone as important as you here?"
" The Azure Emperor Pirates are still at war with the Big Mom Pirates Beasts Pirates, and the World Government is also eyeing them covetously. Are you sure it's okay for you to be here, Azure Emperor?" Teach asked the person sitting on the rock.
This man was Zesi.
"Hehehe, if I said I came here for you, would you believe me, Teach?" Zesi said with a laugh.
The bottleneck encountered in Devil Fruit experiments.
Due to a lack of experimental materials, this research had to be temporarily suspended.
In order for this experimental research to continue, Zesi had to find a way to obtain more experimental materials.
However, the consumption was simply too great.
In order to minimize his consumption, Zesi left Hachinosu and found Teach.
Zesi knew that the best material for this experiment was the guy in front of him.
The later Blackbeard Marshall D. Teach.
An outlier.
The only man who has eaten two Devil Fruit.
Anyone who eats two Devil Fruit will die instantly.
You only have a short time to get data on gene conflicts...
But Teach is different.
He can eat two Devil Fruit and still live.
This way, we can obtain more data.
And the research on Teach's unusual body.
This would also allow for better research into a compatibility potion that allows one person to consume two Devil Fruit.
"For me? Hahaha, the renowned Azure Emperor, coming for someone as unknown as me?"
"Please stop joking. Even if I'm a member of the Whitebeard Pirates, what is it about me that would make you come all this way for me? Are you planning to Whitebeard Pirates?" Teach said, breaking out in a cold sweat.
This is supposedly the strongest one on the high seas.
Back when he was still an apprentice crew Whitebeard Pirates, Teach had already witnessed the terror of the person before him.
His last battle with Whitebeard made him realize that some people are not to be trifled with.
If it were Whitebeard, he could wait until Whitebeard grew old and frail.
But the person in front of me isn't much older than me.
Therefore, even if he obtained the Devil Fruit he had always dreamed of, he had no intention of becoming enemies with the person in front of him.
Although that Devil Fruit can counter most Devil Fruit abilities.
But the one in front of us is not just strong in Devil Fruit abilities.
"Heh, unknown? I've noticed you ever since I first saw you in the Whitebeard Pirates, Teach!"
"You're a truly exceptional individual, even rarer than Devil Fruit. I have an experiment that I need your help with. Come with me!" Zesi said.
"Experiment? What experiment? With your current status, what help do you need from me? Azure Emperor, I may not be anything special, but attacking Pops's son will incur Pops's wrath. Don't forget, the Azure Emperor Pirates are still fighting the Big Mom Pirates, the Beasts Pirates, and if you add our Whitebeard Pirates and the ever-watchful World Government, even you, Azure Emperor, couldn't withstand such an attack, could you?"
"That's why I had to go myself. After all, if that old man Whitebeard starts a war, I'd find it very troublesome!" Zesi said with a smile.
