Chapter 390 Porusalino: The Upcoming Disintegration of the Whitebeard Pirates!
Although Doflamingo is not as bad as in the original plot due to Porosalino, he has not changed at all in many of his very personal characteristics - for example, he looks like this He doesn't look like a good guy, and he plays the bad guy with ease and ease.
Therefore, Doflamingo's change of tone and exaggerated expression at this moment made even Blackbeard feel a thump in his heart and the hairs on his neck stood up.
But he is Blackbeard after all, and his forbearance ability is comparable to that of some men with green hat habits, so even though his heart is already in turmoil and he is mentally ready to take action at any time, there is no abnormal change in his external performance - even He smiled even brighter:
"...Hahahahahahaha! What do you mean by this, Brother 'World'?"
(As expected, it didn’t scare him? Humph, it doesn’t matter...)
Doflamingo thought about this, and the smile on his face became brighter. He picked up the wine glass and took a swig:
"Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.. If I remember correctly, Brother 'End of Dreams', you are a close friend of the Revolutionary Army, as acknowledged by Long, the leader of the Revolutionary Army... So how come you don't know? You obviously want to find it. The way to eliminate Devil Fruit abilities lies within the Revolutionary Army... You have a problem!"
(Among the revolutionary army?!!)
Teach's eyes widened, but before he could ask further questions, Doflamingo took the initiative to continue explaining:
"Bartholomew Bear was born in the South China Sea, the former king of the Kingdom of Sorbe, and is now a senior cadre of the Revolutionary Army. He is also an ability user, and the specific content of his ability is the superhuman meat ball fruit."
"Superman's meatball fruit?"
Teach frowned subconsciously, his brain working rapidly - since he was forced to become a close friend of the so-called revolutionary army, he also learned a lot of information about the revolutionary army, "I remember the battle situation about this fruit is …”
"The ability of the Meat Ball Fruit is quite powerful. It can generate the power to bounce off anything 'actively' or 'passively' according to the user's wishes. The speed of the material can also be controlled according to the user's wishes. The maximum speed can even be Comparable to the speed of Admiral Kizaru's Shining Fruit..."
Doflamingo was like a seductive demon at this moment. The magnetic voice itself and the content of what he said were extremely motivating:
"But that's not the point of what I want to say. What I want to tell you, Brother 'End of Dreams', is that the objects that can be bounced away by the power of the meat ball fruit are any objects in the true sense and do not have to have entities! Do you understand? Just like the fatigue caused by fighting, the pain felt when witnessing tragedy, or even the void of the soul..."
Having said this, Doflamingo paused slightly, looked at Tikki and swallowed nervously, and then continued to speak:
"Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.. So, brother, tell me, can this power remove the original Devil Fruit power from a certain ability user?"
"!!!"
——Doflamingo’s knowledge about the power of the Meat Ball Fruit was naturally told to him by Porusalino, and the two of them told this news to Teach, who was looking to eliminate the power of the Devil Fruit, without any reason. Of course It's not to make him beautiful, but to dig a bigger hole for him.
After all, it is the ultimate BOSS. Porusalino believes in Teach's resilience and will not fall easily. He hopes to do many things with Teach's help.
…
In the cabin of the Moby-Dick, Teach collected his thoughts and ended his memories. His attention returned to the newspaper that the white-bearded father had read in his hand, and his eyes also fell on Minister Thain's imposing face.
Although he had previously learned from Doflamingo a solution that would most likely solve the main problem he was currently facing, Teach was not as active as before. Instead, he behaved as if he was completely unaware. He returned to the Whitebeard Pirates - his companions saw that he did not bring back any Celestial Dragon heads. Although they were a little regretful, they did not find it strange, so everything ended like this.
But Teach is very clear-headed. He knows that although he is called the "forever best friend of the Revolutionary Army" by Long, and almost the whole world understands and accepts this situation, in fact he has not even half a cent relationship with the Revolutionary Army; he He also knew very well that although his current strength seemed to be good, if he really faced that Bartholomew Bear, his winning rate would be basically zero.
Therefore, if Teach really wanted to take advantage of the power of Big Bear's meat ball fruit, he could only really surrender to the revolutionary army like he hugged Whitebeard's thigh.
But this is obviously impossible. After all, in the original plot, he was able to give up everything about the Whitebeard Pirates and this huge sunk cost entirely because his lifelong dream was right in front of him, and the secret benefits were greater; but now , the risk of getting close to the revolutionary army far exceeds what he can get.
And to put it bluntly, Teach himself has set an "end time" for his dream plan. Now he still has time and opportunity to find other ways - only when the deadline he set for himself in his heart really reaches, will he really Only when he has no choice will he consider the power of the meat ball fruit, which is extremely risky, and deal with the bear.
Therefore, after parting ways with Doflamingo, Teach lay dormant and searched for several more years.
until today--
(The power of resurrection from the dead, resurrection from the dead... If I die first, and then wait for this abominable poop fruit power to disappear from my body, and then I resurrect... doesn't it mean that I have become a brand new person, completely untouched Are there any humans with devil fruit powers?)
(So, now we need to confirm whether the so-called Minister Thain really has the power of resurrection from the dead, or what is the secret of his resurrection from the dead...)
If ordinary people knew about Teach's choice, they would find it very strange. After all, according to normal thinking, resurrecting from the dead is obviously more risky. After all, you have to die once and leave your fate to others. If others don't perform the resurrection, then your death will be in vain.
This was indeed the case, even Teach himself felt so - but he still made such a choice.
The reason is simple. He thinks that he and Minister Thain are the same type of people.
You know, Minister Thane used to be CP0, and spent the first half of his life nodding and bowing to the Celestial Dragons. He seemed to have no ambitions and was absolutely loyal to the World Government; and Teach also played the most honest elder of the Whitebeard Pirates for nearly twenty years. On the surface, it seems that he is stupid and short-minded, and the only thing worthy of praise is his loyalty to the Whitebeard Pirates.
But in fact, Teach believed that Minister Thain, like him, had a high heart and dared to bet his life-Minister Thain's resurrection from death, whether he really mastered the power of miracles or he used it No matter what trick, the result is that he directly did the craziest thing today, placing a bounty on the world government and navy, and openly declaring war;
As for Teach, he has long been prepared to betray everything just for himself at the critical moment. He always has only one goal, and that is the power of the Dark Fruit - what he wants is not the so-called identity of the Pirate Emperor, and he does not want to be the pirate emperor. The great pirate who can only dominate a certain area wants to surpass Whitebeard and become like the only Pirate King Roger and like the former sea overlord Rocks, to dominate an era with the power of one person and hold great power.
Therefore, even if he did not want to use the power of resurrection to eliminate the ability of the poop fruit that he hated, Teach would still want to deal with Minister Thain because of his arrogance and the cross union he created.
A pair of big hands suddenly appeared and snatched the newspaper from Teach's hand, interrupting his thoughts.
Teach instinctively glared at him fiercely, but he recovered almost instantly and showed his usual rude and careless smile.
"Tiqi, what's the matter with you? I called you several times, but you didn't hear me!"
The captain of the Eighth Division of the Whitebeard Pirates who snatched Teach's newspaper, the fishman Namuel, complained. He glanced at the newspaper in his hand, threw it into the trash can beside the corridor, and then said, " Come here and take care of the trash with me."
"Yeah, it's time to dispose of the garbage again today, I almost forgot."
Teach smiled good-naturedly.
——On the huge Moby Dick, four figures of pirates have lived for a long time. Although the garbage generated by these people in their daily lives can be discharged directly into the sea, Whitebeard will regularly arrange for people to dispose of this garbage in a relatively standardized manner based on the suggestions of his fishmen members.
Of course, these tasks will not be handed over to the captains because they are tiring and dirty - the precious physical energy of the captains is not wasted on such things. This is the consensus of the whole team.
Except for the fishman Namuel, the captain of the eighth division. As a fishman, he is very concerned about the specific implementation of this work. After all, he and his fellow fishmen all live in the water, and they usually prefer to stay in the water, so they will personally take responsibility every time.
And after Teach became the "God Killer" and served as the captain of the so-called Zero Division of the Whitebeard Pirates, and demonstrated the ability of the poop fruit, he was also selected as another person in charge of garbage disposal.
"Brother Tiqi, you are also the captain! Just like Captain Namure! Both captains, everyone can rest assured!"
"Tikki, you boy, you are certainly not afraid of smells and dirt! Professionals handle professional work!"
"Tiqi is the most enthusiastic and loves to help! Hahaha!"
The friends said this with a smile, and Teach also laughed and went to work.
But only in private, only secretly in his heart, Tiqi would be extremely angry.
In the early years, I was just doing various odd jobs, but now I still have to go to Ranch Island to fertilize, deal with garbage, speak for the Whitebeard Pirates on the phone bug network, and give various gifts to various people like a clown. His companion told a false story about how he forced Admiral Kizaru to retreat... Teach felt more and more that every minute and every second he spent in the Whitebeard Pirates was torture and a waste of life.
(The Cross Guild that places bounties on the top brass of the Navy and World Government, maybe I can...)
A few years ago, to be precise, at the end of 1514 in the Haiyuan calendar, a slightly famous restaurant appeared in the East China Sea. This restaurant, which had just opened and was fully operational by the end of 1514 for less than a year, impressed every diner who came here with its unique location, unique service style, and outstanding chef skills.
It is said to have a unique location because it is a maritime restaurant located on the sea, and the entire ship is even built in a similar style to a land-based restaurant. From a distance, it may even make people think they are on land. illusion.
The service style is weird because although the owner and chef here is excellent at cooking, he is also known for his bad temper. And perhaps in response to the saying that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, the other staff here also have very bad personalities, and most of them have vicious looks. In addition, including the boss who is also the head chef, there are many weirdos with missing arms and legs working here. To say that these disabled people are weirdos is not because the diners are mean, but because, in addition to their physical defects, these people, without exception, have fleshy faces, vulgar voices, tattoos and scars everywhere on their exposed skin, and a very bad attitude towards guests. Bad - they look more like pirates than cooks.
But all these shortcomings are made up for by the last advantage. This is perhaps what the owner of this restaurant, the former pirate, "Red Foot" Zhepu, is most proud of.
It’s not that no diners left angrily after experiencing bad service, but most of these people had to come back because they missed Zhepu’s craftsmanship and endured service quality that was at the opposite end of the spectrum from top-notch cuisine – it was so delicious!
In the beginning, the main customers of this restaurant were crew members who met occasionally while sailing at sea. These people who have been wandering at sea for an unknown period of time, eating boring food to survive, find that there is a restaurant in the middle of the sea that can provide them with delicious food, and they really can't resist the urge to consume. But over time, as the reputation spread by the crew and sailors, more and more diners have come here specifically for the excellent taste here.
Sea Restaurant Barati, people at sea call it so, and they always mention it as a fun topic when chatting with others.
On this day, a large ship with an astonishing size arrived here, flying a daunting flag representing the navy.
"Arrived at the world's gourmet mecca, the sea restaurant Barati! The air here in Barati is so fragrant."
"Remember to copy down all the menus secretly later, Sanji. When you go back, you can upgrade your small stove in the cafeteria. Next time, General, I will personally go and taste it for you to improve your cooking skills."
ps: The ability setting of the meat ball fruit is not made up by me, it is a real official setting, which is simply outrageous.
