Panalo.

The wind blows up the dust from the streets, and the group is slowly moving forward.

The man at the head had a rough face, with thick hair on his exposed body, and a hideous scar was clearly visible, running from his shoulder to his abdomen, making him look very hideous.

On either side, in the rear, were men with sniper rifles, strange men with crutches, and a tall martial artist, the last of whom looked sick on a donkey.

It was none other than the Blackbeard Pirates led by Marshall Titch.

They were free in the waters around the ancient town of Magic, and after meeting Charlot, they wandered all the way, traveling to several islands, and came to Panalo Island.

The previous injuries had almost recovered at this time.

Therefore, it is time to leave and look for the next target.

The group seemed a little silent, without any superfluous communication.

But they didn't notice that on the roof of the house on one side, a man with a cold freckled face wearing a cowboy hat was squatting at some point, looking down at them.

Suddenly, the freckled-faced man exclaimed, "Hey, Titch! ”

A sudden sound broke the silence among the crowds.

Blackbeard's group all hurriedly raised their heads, and Marshall Titch, who was the leader, laughed even more in surprise: "Ace! ”

"It's great to see you here!"

"Are you here to join us? With your abilities, plus us, you can change the world! ”

Hearing this, Ace stared at each other expressionlessly.

He couldn't understand the other party's thinking, and the bad guy who killed his own people and escaped, after seeing his captain, all he wanted was to invite the other party to join.

And such a guy, the man clearly told him that he was not his opponent?

After getting along for many years, Ace thinks that he already knows Marshall Tich very well, which naturally includes the strength of the other party.

"Next, we plan to capture Luffy, the Straw Hat Boy, and then hand him over to the World Government."

"In exchange for huge status and benefits!"

Marshall Titch said with another laugh.

He seemed innocent, telling his plan in its entirety.

"Luffy?"

"Are you kidding? Titch! ”

"That's my dear brother!"

Ace slowly stood up, and flames burned on his shoulders and arms.

"Looks like I can't let you go, Teach!"

A cold voice came out.

Involving Luffy, Ace has completely pronounced the death sentence on the group of people in front of him.

At this point, Van Oka raised his sniper rifle and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Bang!"

Ace's body flickered with flames, which also deepened the coldness in his eyes.

At the same time, Gizas Baggers also jumped high and launched a surprise attack on him.

But in an instant, a large flame rose from Ace's body and rushed straight towards Baggers, drowning him in flames in an instant.

"Like that man, this guy is also natural!"

Van Oka said in a deep voice.

He has seen the power of the natural system with his own eyes, and he has a natural shadow for this fruit ability.

"Don't do it!"

Marshall Titch woke up from a dream and suddenly stopped loudly.

Then, he looked at Ace and said nervously.

"Ace, we can join forces!"

"You and I have worked together many times, and we will definitely turn this world upside down when we join forces!"

Ace's face was cold, and he looked down at the other party.

For Blackbeard, who can kill his own people with a ruthless hand, he doesn't believe it in his heart anyway.

"Titch."

"Do that kind of thing, and you can still act as if nothing happened?"

"I'm here to get you back with my own hands."

"Letting you kneel in front of your father to repent is the last mercy to you!"

Hearing this, Marshall Titch's face froze, and then he smiled reluctantly: "Really? ”

"That's a pity!"

"We could have dominated this world, even beyond Whitebeard!"

Ace didn't want to talk nonsense anymore, and compared his hands to the shape of a pistol, shooting at the group below one after another.

"Muskets!"

The flame bullets rushed out in an instant, and Blackbeard's group dodged one after another.

By this time, the battle had already begun.

Blackbeard Marshall Titch no longer hid his strength, and black smoke rose from his body, and a cold smile bloomed on the corner of his mouth.

"Ace!"

"In this case, I can only change the plan and catch you!"

"It's different from the original plan, but it should serve the same purpose!"

Ace sneered: "If you can do it, let's try it!" ”

In the next second, his figure burst out, jumped high, and the flames on his arm boiled, turning into a fist of fire, swinging down.

Marshall Titch's face was gloomy, his five fingers opened, and suddenly a dark whirlpool appeared, and he suddenly pulled towards Ace, who was in the air in front of him.

"Darkwater!"

"Buzz!"

The air trembled inexplicably, and Ace's body shook, and he was involuntarily pulled forward, which made his face change slightly.

I want to struggle, but it's hard to do it.

The pull was so great that it was almost impossible to break free.

"Bang!"

In an instant, one of his shoulders was grabbed by Marshall Titch.

"Thief hahahaha!"

"Ace, why do you think I've gone to all the trouble of lurking in the Whitebeard Pirates?"

"It's just to get the most murderous fruit ability in history!"

"It's the nemesis of all Devil Fruit abilities!"

In the midst of laughter, Marshall Titch clenched his other hand into a fist and slammed it into Ace.

"Bang!"

The powerful force hit Ace's chest, causing his body to fly out instantly, and his ribs shattered with a click.

He was already injured in the first round of the fight, and he was even more shocked by Marshall Teach's ability.

At the moment when he was caught by the other party, he couldn't use any ability.

Raising his hand and wiping the blood from his mouth, Ace's face was a little serious and solemn.

Suddenly, he noticed the long wound on the other man's body.

"Hehe, the most murderous ability in history?"

"So, with such a powerful ability, who has hit you so hard?"

The sudden words made the smile on Marshall Titch's face immediately dissipate, replaced by a touch of fear and anger.

But soon, the other person regained his composure and laughed again.

"Thief hahahaha!"

"Ace, the world you see is different from mine!"

"To be able to leave such a wound in front of that man, but leave alive, is already a supreme honor!"

"This wound is a medal that belongs to the strong!"

Between the words, Marshall Titch was not ashamed of the injury, but proud.

"Oh? So, can you tell me the man's name? ”

Ace sneered.

"Charlot!"

"That man is the man who once fought to a draw with Whitebeard at his peak!"

Marshall Titch said loudly.

"And, IMHO."

"Today's Xia Le, I'm afraid that his strength has surpassed Whitebeard and become the number one in this world!"

"I was able to go from being the best in the world to leave only a wound, but I was still alive."

"This is a symbol of my great strength!"

Ace's body was shocked, and his eyes sharpened.

At the same time, the judgment of Marshall Titch's strength in his heart has invisibly improved by another level.

"Really?"

"Then you, you really hid a lot of strength in the past!"

Softly, Ace leaned forward, his face solemn to the extreme.

Marshall Titch was stunned and looked at Ace strangely: "You actually know that man?" ”

"Him? Of course I do! ”

Ace muttered, and there was an inexplicable meaning in his words.

In the next second, its figure suddenly rushed forward, attacking Marshall Titch.

The two fought a series of battles that spread throughout the island of Panalo.

At the end, Ace was lying on the ground dying, and Marshall Titch laughed loudly.

"Thief hahahaha!"

"Ace, you underestimated my power!"

"From today onwards, you will be my stepping stone to the world stage."

"It will also be my gift to the World Government, so as to go further!"

Hearing this, Ace's eyes were angry, but he was helpless.

At this time, he recalled in his heart the judgment made by Xia Le.

Himself, he really wasn't Marshall Teach's opponent.

That man, has he already seen through the future? It's a pity that I don't believe in each other.

He didn't know what was going to happen next, how much of a shock he would cause, but he had a faint, ominous premonition.

Gradually, his consciousness fell into confusion, and he could only faintly hear Marshall Titch's wild laughter, harsh and sarcastic.

The gears of fate slowly turned from this moment, and a huge storm that was about to sweep the world vibrated the wings thousands of miles away.

——

Marin Vando.

"Do you need a batch, a place to be promoted to lieutenant general?"

Warring States looked at Xia Le suspiciously, with some curiosity in his eyes.

"Hmm."

Xia Le nodded.

"You should know that the position of lieutenant general is already the pillar of the officers in the department, and every position is crucial."

Sengoku said with a smile.

"Of course!"

"Their strength is definitely worthy of this position."

Xia Le said.

"So confident?"

Sengoku also laughed.

"Of course!"

"They are all proficient in armed colors, and they are domineering when they see and hear."

"At the same time, the fruit abilities of several of them have also awakened."

"If you want to prepare for the next war, then before that, you should no longer be restrained about your appointment!"

"A strong person with ability should shine in a position that matches their ability."

Xia Le said with a smile.

He didn't expect that the impact of these words on the Warring States would be terrifying.

I saw this admiral-in-chief, his eyes wide, and he said in disbelief.

"Awakening?"

"Are you sure you're talking about the Devil Fruit's awakening?"

"You also have mastered the armed color, and you can see and hear the domineering color?"

In the other party's eyes, Xia Le nodded slightly.

"Yes, Bucky, Rosinandi's fruit abilities have been awakened."

"Guina's swordsmanship has also reached the level of a great swordsman!"

"As for Klockdahl, he will play with all his might, and he will not be weaker than the general."

Hearing this, there was a moment of silence in the marshal's office.

After a long time, the Warring States took a deep breath.

"Let me do it!"

"I'm a little dizzy!"

He admits that he was stunned by the huge surprise.
