Chapter 833: The power of purification will ultimately triumph over darkness!

"But the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit is the true power of a hegemon!" Blackbeard said confidently.

A cold sneer curled the corner of Locke's mouth.

"Blackbeard, you may not know this, but my Dark-Dark Fruit possesses the power to purify darkness. Today, I will use your own dark power to defeat you!" Locke's voice was filled with arrogance and determination.

The battle began. The figures of Locke and Blackbeard crossed rapidly, unleashing heart-shaking attacks. Locke utilized the copied ability of the Dark-Dark Fruit; his fists carried dark energy, like blades tearing through space. Meanwhile, Blackbeard's Dark-Dark Fruit granted him endless destructive power and recovery.

"Locke, your dark power is indeed strong, but my dark power is the one that cannot be defeated!" Blackbeard roared, his body rapidly recovering from the damage he had sustained.

Locke calmly dodged Blackbeard's attacks while searching for an opportunity to counterattack.

"Blackbeard, your Dark-Dark Fruit is indeed powerful, but my Mirror of Evil Purification can purify all darkness!" Locke said in a low voice.

He condensed the power of Jeanne, and the mirror surface emitted an eerie glow. Locke used Jeanne's power and began to purify Blackbeard's dark power.

Blackbeard felt the agony of his dark power being purified; his attacks became even more frantic and fierce. Blackbeard struggled to resist, but Locke's purifying power grew stronger and stronger, impossible to block. Every punch made Blackbeard feel incomparable pain, and the dark power was thoroughly purified, losing its original might.

"Blackbeard, your darkness will eventually be purified by me; it cannot be stopped!" Locke's voice was filled with the joy of victory.

Blackbeard gritted his teeth; his body began to collapse, and the dark smoke gradually dissipated.

"I will not be defeated by you! The power of darkness will never perish!" Blackbeard let out a desperate roar, and his final shockwave unleashed a violent force.

Locke steadied his stance, putting his full strength into blocking Blackbeard's final strike.

"Blackbeard, your darkness can no longer shake my power of purification!" Locke roared, his power reaching its peak.

In the end, Blackbeard's attack was completely blocked by Locke. The dark smoke dispersed, and Blackbeard fell to his knees, his body thoroughly crushed.

"I... have I lost?" Blackbeard said with difficulty.

Locke's gaze was firm; he walked toward Blackbeard and extended his hand.

"Blackbeard, you are a powerful opponent. Accept your defeat; the power of purification will ultimately triumph over darkness."

Blackbeard weakly took Locke's hand, his eyes revealing a sense of regret.

"Locke, you are a true powerhouse. Your purifying power has defeated my darkness. I acknowledge your victory; you are worthy of being called a candidate for Pirate King."

Locke smiled and helped Blackbeard up.

"Blackbeard, you are also a powerhouse, and I respect your strength. I hope we can cross blades again; at that time, I believe it will surely be an even more intense battle!"

Blackbeard nodded, expressing his recognition of Locke.

Locke and the child arrived at the mysterious world within the Great Treasure, where a fantastic scene unfolded before their eyes. Islands floated in a mysterious sea of clouds, and colorful flowers emitted a charming fragrance. In this mysterious world, they encountered a lonely and ancient pirate: the legendary Pirate King, Gol D. Luo Jie.

Luo Jie was white-haired and aged, his face kind; he seemed to have long anticipated Locke's arrival. ===== CHAPTER 835 =====
