Chapter 114: Strike when it's time to strike
The flaming wings behind Ethan didn't disappear directly, but were held together behind him like real wings.
There was an astonishing heat from it, and the pirates surrounding Ethan were so uncomfortable by the heat that they unconsciously took many steps back, and the outermost few were almost squeezed into the sea by their own partners.
Blackbeard endured the heat wave that seemed to roast him, and stood firmly in place, even the zombie subordinates he used black magic to transform couldn't stand it and chose to retreat.
"I'm Edward Titch Blackbeard. ”
As a notorious super pirate across the seas, Blackbeard has his own pride, he will not choose to bow his head casually, and even deliberately puffs out his chest and looks at Ethan head-on.
"Tsk. ”
Ethan didn't care about this person's behavior at all.
If a heroic figure puts on this pose, Ethan may have to show some respect, maybe a few words of praise, and it is not impossible to sit down and chat and make friends.
As for Blackbeard, what's so good about such a villain who burns, kills, loots, and does all kinds of evil? This is also the reason why Ethan doesn't care about this kind of villain at all, and he doesn't have any psychological pressure to kill this kind of pure villain.
If it weren't for the dark magic, Ethan would have sent him to hell when he saw this guy.
"Who are you?"
Ethan didn't speak, but Blackbeard couldn't do nothing, just stood and stared at Ethan, and he could only endure the tremendous pressure to ask about the other party's identity and purpose.
"My name is Ethan, and I want something from you. ”
Blackbeard breathed a sigh of relief at hearing what Ethan wanted from him. In any case, this person seems to have a plea for himself? That could mean that there is room for negotiation between the two sides.
No matter how tough he was, he didn't want to be an enemy of this man in his heart.
He didn't know who Ethan was, and he didn't know what the hell the hell the pair of flame-formed wings behind him was, but that didn't prevent him from understanding that the person in front of him was an extremely powerful being, and he was powerless to fight against it.
As long as the other party flies, he doesn't have much to do, and this person can calmly attack himself from a high place - even if he chases and shoots himself with a musket, he doesn't have a good way to deal with it.
"What's that?"
"The kind of black magic that puts a ship in a bottle. ”
Blackbeard was stunned, he never thought that the other party was actually thinking about his own spell.
He originally thought that this person wanted to get his Queen Anne Avenger, or the magical sword at his waist, or maybe even his own life, but he didn't expect that the other party was aiming at such a spell anyway.
The spell was in his hands, and its only purpose was to collect loot - whether it was other pirates or merchant ships, after being defeated by himself, their ships would be stored in bottles by Blackbeard, and placed together to record his victories again and again.
Blackbeard raised his left hand slightly, ready to rest on the hilt of the knife at his waist.
"What if I refuse?"
His original intention was to talk to Ethan, and he couldn't just pop up and give him whatever he wanted.
If the opponent is not as strong as he thinks, he doesn't mind killing the guy who offended him.
Although his movements are inconspicuous, they can't hide from Ethan, who has been paying attention to him.
With a mocking smile, Ethan lifted his hand slightly, and Blackbeard felt his gently moving left hand suddenly unable to move.
"You are not qualified to refuse. ”
Blackbeard looked down and saw that his left hand was wrapped in a ball of blue light, and his arm seemed to be clamped by a huge palm, unable to move a single cent.
This is a control spell that can trap the entire person and immobilize them with enough mana output.
The advantage is that it is easy to use, and there is no need to chant mantras or prepare anything in advance. As long as the mana output is strong enough, it can trap almost any target. The disadvantage is that it requires a constant amount of mana, and it is difficult to use it with other spells.
Even with Ethan's control, he can only control one of Blackbeard's hands when maintaining the Flame Wings, and if he wants to restrain the opponent's entire person, he needs to first remove the magic of the Flame Wings and increase the magic output of this move.
But in this case, that's enough.
Ethan waved his hand slightly, and the movement was like beckoning the waiter to pay the bill in a restaurant, and with his movements, Blackbeard's left hand, which was bound by magic, seemed to be pulled down by someone, and it was held straight to the side.
"Don't try to do anything bad...... Remind you that your tricks are no different from a child's trick in my eyes. ”
Blackbeard's face was swollen and red, not because he felt angry because he was humiliated by Ethan, but the strange blue light that was clamping his left hand seemed to suddenly increase its force, and the huge pain made him wonder if his arm had been crushed.
Fortunately, the constant pain reminded him that his hand was still there, and from Ethan's words, he realized that his methods seemed to be clear to the other party, and the current situation was developing towards a worse and worse situation.
"Who the hell are you?"
"A passing one. Ethan withdrew his right hand and his spell as well, "It's just that I'm just a little interested in what you've mastered." ”
Blackbeard's left hand was free, and instead of touching the hilt, he gently rubbed his left arm, relieving the great pain on it.
"I'll give you what you want, and then what?"
Ethan was stunned, he didn't even think that Blackbeard would be so soft.
It doesn't seem strange to think about it, no matter how famous Blackbeard is, he is just a pirate after all, he is not a hero, an iron-blooded tough guy, and he knows that the enemy is strong and has to be tough with the other party.
For pirates, nothing is more important than their own lives.
Look at the fact that in order to prolong his life, he even put his own daughter to death, you can know what kind of person he is.
Ethan shook his head helplessly, he really hadn't thought carefully about what to do after finding Blackbeard. He originally thought that in the name of Blackbeard, he would definitely not give in easily. In this case, I could have beaten him half to death first, tortured him for what he wanted, and then killed this villain casually.
I never expected that I showed a little strength, and the other party directly softened. Looking at Blackbeard's tone, it seems that he wants to save his life with the spell he wants.
"Why do you feel so unhappy?"
It's not that the deal can't be done, but Ethan doesn't want to let go of Blackbeard just because the other party has what he wants?
"Forget it, I'll find what I want myself anyway. ”
With a decision made in his heart, Ethan felt much more comfortable from the inside out, and the flame wings behind him spread out violently and became larger, and the heat released from them suddenly became much higher.
With the two wings of fire flying up and down, in the blink of an eye, the infamous Queen Anne Avenger became a sea of fire, almost all the buildings on the deck were burned, and the sails were reduced to ashes in the first place.
The Black Pearl, cruising in the distance, had been observing the situation, and when the Queen Anne Avengers suddenly burst into flames, Jack knew Ethan had made a move.
"Does Blackbeard dare to do anything with Ethan?"
As a pirate, Jack of course knows what kind of people pirates are, and he estimates that Blackbeard will definitely obediently hand over what Ethan wants after seeing Ethan's strength, and Blackbeard will definitely offer to exchange this thing for his safe departure, and once Ethan's character agrees, he will definitely not regret it.
So the situation at hand......
"Maybe Ethan didn't negotiate with Blackbeard at all. ”
This seemed to be the only plausible explanation, and both Jack and Elizabeth felt that it was probably the case.
From Ethan's previous attitude towards Barbossa, it can be seen that this lord has a serious lack of affection for pirates.
When they thought of this, whether it was Elizabeth, Will, or Gibbs, they all looked at Jack Sparrow beside him, as if only this Captain Jack could be looked at differently by that person.
"Why are you all looking at me? You should be looking over there, what's going on over there is much better than I am. ”
Of course, the famous Blackbeard and his Queen Anne Avenger are a thing of the past today, and just after the whole ship turned into a huge ball of fire, Ethan flew back into the air and flew back towards the Black Pearl.
"Looks like it's settled?"
After Ethan fell, Jack glanced at the Queen Anne Avenger burning in the distance. As a pirate, he didn't know if he should take his hat off to pay homage to the pirate legend, and he feared that such behavior would anger Ethan, who lacked a liking for pirates, and that would be the one who would be unlucky.
After thinking about it, Jack Sparrow would never do such a stupid thing for Blackbeard's sake, so he decisively withdrew his gaze and shifted the conversation to the purpose of Ethan's trip.
"It was a bit of a hassle, but I got what I wanted. ”
Killing Blackbeard and his men was nothing to Ethan now, and he didn't even need to move his hands, just the wings of fire were enough to wipe out the group completely.
Slightly more troublesome is that it takes a little effort and time to extract Blackbeard's soul and torture it.
At this time, he was very glad that he had learned a lot about the soul with Immorton before, and he had successfully obtained what he wanted.
