Chapter 376: Blackbeard Teach's Pirate Ship

Just as they were about to exhaust their strength, suddenly, a massive pirate ship sailed in from the distance. On the ship's flag was painted a black skull — it was none other than Blackbeard Teach's pirate ship.

Blackbeard stood at the bow, watching the battle below, a sinister smile curling across his face: "Hmph, interesting. Looks like I've got a good show to watch."

His appearance made the already tense situation even more delicate. Li An's heart sank — he knew a new crisis was about to arrive.

"Everyone be careful, Blackbeard is here!" Li An shouted in warning.

Luffy heard this and looked toward Blackbeard, a flash of excitement in his eyes: "Oh? Blackbeard, you're here too. Perfect, I haven't fought you yet!"

Blackbeard let out a cold laugh: "Luffy, you're still too naive. Today, none of you are getting out of here!"

Saying this, he waved both hands, and a powerful gravitational force surged toward the group. They all felt their bodies grow heavy, as if pressed beneath a mountain, unable to move.

"Damn it, what kind of ability is this!" Zoro said through gritted teeth.

Li An activated his system, rapidly analyzing Blackbeard's ability, trying to find a way to break it. However, Blackbeard's power was far too bizarre, and for the moment, he had no clue at all.

Just as everyone fell into a predicament, suddenly, a tremendous tremor came from beneath the sea. A colossal mysterious creature slowly rose from the ocean floor, radiating a powerful aura — it was the Treasure Guardian.

The Treasure Guardian let out a furious roar, its voice so loud it made everyone's eardrums ache. Blackbeard's expression shifted slightly — he hadn't expected to encounter the Treasure Guardian here.

"Wh-what is this thing?" Guo Yao stared at the enormous creature before her in terror.

Li An took a deep breath: "Whatever it is, we now share a common enemy."

Luffy looked at the Treasure Guardian with excitement: "Haha, something fun again!"

Blackbeard snorted coldly: "Hmph, you think you can stop me? You're not qualified enough!" Saying this, he activated his ability once more, attacking the Treasure Guardian.

The Treasure Guardian swung its massive tentacles, blocking Blackbeard's assault. In an instant, the sea surged with towering waves, and the battle entered the white-hot stage.

Li An seized the moment and shouted to the group: "Don't just stand there, everyone attack Blackbeard together — break out while he's distracted!"

The others nodded one after another and threw themselves back into the fight. Zoro swung his blades and charged at Blackbeard; Luffy stretched his body, repeatedly striking Blackbeard's weak points; Nami wielded her Clima-Tact, unleashing various weather attacks against Blackbeard.

Under the combined assault of the group, Blackbeard gradually began to falter. His face darkened, and he muttered bitterly to himself: "Damn it, I didn't expect to fall here today!"

Just as Blackbeard was preparing to retreat, Li An suddenly discovered a flaw in him. His heart leaped with joy, and he shouted to Luffy: "Luffy, attack his left shoulder!"

Luffy heard this and lunged at Blackbeard's left shoulder without hesitation. Blackbeard couldn't dodge in time and was struck by Luffy, his body instantly losing balance.

"Now's our chance — break out!" Li An shouted loudly.

The group seized the opportunity and charged out of Blackbeard pirate ship's encirclement. Blackbeard watched their retreating backs, his eyes filled with unwillingness: "Hmph, just you wait — I'll settle this score eventually!"

Li An and the members of the Straw Hat Pirates had finally broken out successfully. They stood on the pirate ship, watching Blackbeard's pirate ship recede into the distance, and all breathed a sigh of relief.
