If it is just to complete the adventure, Luffy's dream does not need to conflict with others, and he can just take his own risk. But if it is a fight for hegemony, then everyone is competing for the title of Pirate King, and Luffy will inevitably go to war with others.
In Blackbeard's view, to realize a dream is to achieve great success, to step on other people's dreams as a stepping stone, and to climb to the sky step by step based on other people's dreams.
The two have completely different philosophies, but the means they use to achieve their goals are actually similar. They both fight and defeat enemies. It's just that Luffy thinks he's defeating bad people, while Blackbeard defeats people who hinder his dreams, no matter what.
Good or bad.
The methods are similar, but the targets are different.
Blackbeard is deeply aware of the changes of the times. Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. If he does not change with the times, he will not be able to become the Pirate King.
Although Luffy wanted to object, he didn't know how to refute, and in the end all his words turned into fists.
Compress the rubber legs to gain jumping power and go directly to the roof to face Blackbeard.
Blackbeard almost forgot that the opponent was a rubber fruit, and a tall building of tens of meters could not stop the opponent. But it didn't matter, he had confidence in himself and could defeat Luffy.
"I will definitely defeat you." Luffy stood in front of Blackbeard and said firmly. He would not agree with Blackbeard's philosophy.
Blackbeard sneered: "You can try."
"Rubber machine gun." The battle begins.
Blackbeard used the Dark Fruit to absorb the opponent's attack, holding the small dark spiral in the palm of his hands, and hitting it with his fist did no harm: "Dark Water."
When Luffy saw it, he immediately made an arc with his fist, trying to bypass the opponent's defense.
But Dark Water is very free, like holding two small shields, and can move quickly. Although Blackbeard is fat, he is a flexible fat man, and can defend against Luffy's ferocious attacks without leakage.
Both people have D in their names, Luffy is called Monkey D. Luffy, and Blackbeard is called Marshall D. Teach. This is the collision of the will of D.
Luffy found that no matter how many times he punched, the enemy would not be hurt. Faced with this situation, he could only increase his attack power: "Armed Color Haki." The fist turned black and the attack power exploded.
Blackbeard smiled and said: "Armed Haki? Boy, you are really stupid. Don't you know that my fruit ability is better than Haki?" Blackbeard said that he only used the fruit.
Luffy didn't talk nonsense, even if the opponent was Iron Bastard, he would crush it bit by bit with his fists.
The other battlefields are basically finished, and the crew is just watching the show.
Kuina thought to herself: Why don’t they help? Didn’t they see that the captain was in a hard fight?
Don't help, because this is Luffy's battle. The crew members don't interfere in the captain's battlefield, just let Luffy sweat. Because he wants to become the Pirate King, and if the crew members help, doesn't everyone share the title of Pirate King?
Kuina couldn't stand it anymore. It would be enough for such an enemy to swarm up and carry out a righteous attack. Why waste time in a one-on-one fight?
There are benefits to one-on-one combat. If you win, you have won. No one will say that it is defeating the small with more, and victory without force. Winning in one-on-one is Luffy's solid record, and it is the basis for him to become the Pirate King.
Luffy fought alone along the way, and even when faced with an enemy he couldn't defeat, he would choose to fight alone. Because fighting alone has another meaning, which means that this is a personal battle and cannot affect the crew. If he fights
However, once defeated, strong enemies should not attack the crew.
Of course, this idea of not bringing harm to the crew is Luffy's wishful thinking. The enemy does not have to comply. They can defeat Luffy and kill all his crew.
In short, duel is Luffy's romance, and the other crew members will not interfere.
Guina couldn't understand it. She and her teammates worked together to fight against strong enemies: "At times like this, shouldn't we go all out? Defeating the enemy is the most important thing. It's not self-defeating to stick to one-on-one duels."
Are you looking for trouble? I don’t understand how these men think about it.”
On the other side, Doflamingo has learned from the phone bug that the artificial fruit factory has been attacked, and he will immediately organize troops to fight back. But at this time, Ace went to him to discuss the details of cooperation, whether to protect the cooperation or to protect the factory.
?
In the end, he chose to maintain cooperation. Cooperation can bring huge benefits, which are far more than those of factories. It is very realistic that entities are not as profitable as finance.
Entity has high investment and low output, and the return cycle is long, so it is not as fast as financial harvest. Entity is only limited to one field, while financial harvest covers a wide range of areas.
The entity produces goods and then sells them to recover the cost, but apart from food, clothes, salt and other things, there are no goods that are necessities. But in finance, as long as everyone has the idea of making money, and the idea of making money is universal
There is no need for any goods, just an idea of making money, so that everyone can hand over their money.
Finance is too important to Doflamingo, but finance requires credibility so that everyone can trust him to pay. At this time, he needs to cooperate with Ace. Ace's reputation as the Fifth Emperor is too important.
"Boss, what should I do with the factory?" The subordinate asked anxiously when he saw Doflamingo going to see Ace.
"You go and solve it, I want to focus on the negotiations."
"Yes." The subordinates had no choice but to do this.
Ace asked knowingly: "Is there something wrong?"
"There is no problem, just some minor accidents. Don't worry, I will take care of it and we will continue to discuss cooperation." Doflamingo said.
Ace knew that the battle must have started, and he couldn't help at this time. He could only hope that everything went well for Luffy and the others. Blackbeard was difficult to deal with, but he believed that Luffy and his teammates would definitely win.
However, the situation on the battlefield was not optimistic, and too much time was wasted.
Blackbeard has been on defense, but of course he is not unaffected at all. Although he is immune to the enemy's attacks, his body will still hurt.
It's not that weird. The Dark Fruit can absorb all attacks and is immune to physical attacks and energy attacks. The body will not be hurt, but it will feel pain.
It's not just ordinary pain. The dark fruit makes people's pain nerves become more sensitive, so the pain is doubled.
It hurts, but Blackbeard can bear it. The most important thing is that he is stalling for time, waiting for Doflamingo's reinforcements. He knows very well that the Financial Emperor will never allow anyone to run wild on his territory. As long as he delays, he will definitely be able to wait.
Come for reinforcements.
"Stupid, if you let the crew attack together, I would have been defeated now." Blackbeard laughed at Luffy and said.
"Do you understand the duel?" Luffy said.
"I understand, but what I don't understand is why you still have to challenge one another when the odds are against you?" Blackbeard asked while defending: "Logically speaking, you are now in the enemy's territory, so you should fight quickly.
Yes, but you choose the time-consuming and labor-intensive method of single combat, aren't you worried that you will be surrounded by enemies?"
"As long as I defeat you," Luffy said directly.
"Idiot." Blackbeard sneered: "If you all go together, the battle is over, but now your death has come."
Reinforcements are coming.
The Straw Hats were all surrounded, and the combat effectiveness of these reinforcements was more powerful than the factory guards.
"What kind of mouse did I think it was? It turns out to be the Straw Hat Pirates. They are so brave. They are causing trouble on the Financial Emperor's territory and seeking death!"
Blackbeard said: "I knew you would definitely come, kill them."
"Blackbeard, you did a good job and delayed the time. Leave this place to us. You can go and rest."
Blackbeard was very happy. After retreating, he could observe their fruit abilities and prepare for the subsequent robbery.
Luffy saw Blackbeard hiding behind others and said angrily: "If you are a man, don't leave."
Blackbeard couldn't understand Luffy's mind and said disdainfully: "I don't know how you got here, to be so naive. This is the ocean, not a house. I am your enemy, why should you fight with me?"
Do you follow the rules? In this world, only the living are qualified to have the last laugh. You are so naive that you can reach the second half of the stage. You are very lucky. But luck will eventually run out. Today is the day you die.
.”
Kuina was helpless. She could have won the battle quickly, but it was delayed until the reinforcements arrived, and she had to start the second battle. These reinforcements are not weak, each one has fruitful abilities, and there are many domineering masters among them.
Zoro and the others immediately went into battle, and this time it was going to be a tough battle.
Kuina thought that if she had no other choice, she might as well fight as the Ghost Rider. This was her hidden identity, and even Ace didn't know it. She didn't have to worry about ruining the cooperation between Ace and Doflamingo. Double
