Chapter 336
Of the five who walked out of Impel Down together, only he remains, truly filling his heart with sorrow.
"Haa!!!"
Blackbeard let out a long sigh, turned his head to look at Lafitte, and asked:
"Lafitte, where can we go now to recruit powerful crew members? Should we run back to Impel Down again?"
Upon hearing this, Lafitte shook his head and said:
"We can proceed in two steps. First, hunt down Devil Fruit users with decent abilities to strengthen ourselves."
"Second, gather information on the scattered pirate experts around the world, then subdue them one by one."
Hearing Lafitte's suggestion, Blackbeard nodded and laughed loudly.
"Zeh hahaha, brothers, this time we really took a huge fall."
"However, man proposes, God disposes; as long as we don't die, we will eventually turn things around."
"Just let that bastard Lin Yu wait for me!!!"
"Zeh hahaha."
Seeing Blackbeard so optimistic, Rainy Xilou couldn't help but laugh as well.
This is what it looks like to do great things.
The sniper Kuroobi interrupted Blackbeard's laughter and spoke:
"Captain, if we don't run now, Garp will catch up."
Upon hearing this, Blackbeard tossed a boat oar to everyone and shouted:
"Little ones, put in some effort!"
"I just thought of a very good Devil Fruit."
"Zeh hahaha..."
On the Red Force.
Shanks the Red was asking the Bai Huzi Pirates about Lin Yu's situation.
Through his inquiries, he also learned from a pirate about the disappearance of First Division Commander Ma Erke and Third Division Commander Diamond Jozu.
Having understood the situation, Shanks frowned and looked at Benn Beckman, asking:
"A translucent door? Benn, do you know what Devil Fruit ability this is?"
Benn Beckman wiped the pistol in his hand and said without looking up: "You are the one who has seen the Devil Fruit encyclopedia; why are you asking me?"
Hearing Benn's answer, Shanks felt a bit embarrassed. "I just forgot."
Afterwards, Shanks continued:
"One of Lin Yu's subordinates possesses an ability similar to a teleportation gate; this is truly difficult to deal with."
With his subordinates having such a strange ability, catching him would probably not be easy.
Benn shook his head and said:
"Ma Erke and Jozu were captured while distracted during combat with others."
"That is to say, this ability is probably only useful for hiding or escaping; it likely has little use in direct combat and can only be used to ambush when the enemy is distracted."
"As long as Observation Haki is improved, there is no need to worry too much."
Yasopp stood nearby, looking at the members of the Bai Huzi Pirates, and said: "So, the God-Slayer Lin Yu not only killed Ace and Bai Huzi, but also captured Ma Erke and Diamond Jozu?"
Hearing Yasopp's words, the officers of the Red Hair Pirates fell silent.
Although Lin Yu was able to do all this because of surprise attacks, the abilities and potential he displayed are already enough to threaten their Red Hair Pirates.
Moreover, if Lin Yu's surprise attack targets were not Ma Erke and Diamond Jozu, but rather officers of their Red Hair Pirates, their fate would probably not be much better than Ma Erke and the others.
(Regarding the Island-Island Fruit, before writing I checked the encyclopedia, but did not see any news about a previous owner of the Island-Island Fruit; the information on Wang Zhi in the encyclopedia also does not record him as the previous owner of the Island-Island Fruit, so here I will let the mistake stand and do not plan to change it.)
