Chapter 135 Black Beard's Visit, Yang Jian's Divine Might!
With the arrival of this spearman, Im vanished instantly, and time resumed its flow.
The people in the conference room had just emerged from the eerie feeling of time standing still.
"What just happened?!"
Garp immediately stood up from his seat, his eyes filled with shock and vigilance.
Zhan Guo patted his head, his gaze instantly falling on Yang, who was still bowing to Taigong Wang.
The same was true for everyone else present; they all felt an aura of extreme holiness emanating from this man.
Feeling the gazes of the crowd, Yang clasped his hands in greeting to each of them.
"Gentlemen, it's a pleasure to meet you. I am the grand-nephew of the Great Ancestor, and in the Holy Grail War, I am a Lancer."
Mysterious and unpredictable, with an awe-inspiring presence!
This was everyone's first impression of him, and his armor and robe gave them a unique oriental feel.
But unlike Taigong Wang's pure immortal aura, this guy also possesses a terrifying killing intent.
The divine eyes that were faintly visible between his brows, and the three-pointed, double-edged sword that gleamed with cold light.
The boundless pressure of that physical sainthood and its overwhelming power made them tremble with fear.
All of this immersed them in the awe of the arrival of the new heroic spirits.
Especially Doflamingo, who summoned him? How was he summoned? What loophole did they use?
However, in the eyes of the Five Elders, there are other things that are most worthy of attention.
Yang's address of Taigong Wang as "Uncle-Master" led them to a deeper level of speculation and apprehension regarding Taigong Wang's origins and strength.
Just as the Five Elders were about to ask this Heroic Spirit, who was clearly a top-tier fighter, a question...
The conference room door was pounded on, and a world government official rushed in in a panic to report.
"Lord Wuwu! There's someone outside—someone outside requests an audience!"
"It's Marshall D. Teach with Blackbeard! He's with a group of people, they look like members of the Straw Hat Pirates! And that Bartholomew Kuma too!"
"What? Blackbeard? The Straw Hat Pirates?" Everyone was shocked.
Sengoku and Garp exchanged a glance, their expressions growing even more serious.
They had previously speculated that Blackbeard might take advantage of the situation, but they didn't expect him to arrive so quickly and even capture Luffy's crew!
The Five Elders were also surprised by Blackbeard's sudden arrival.
But upon hearing that he had captured the remaining members of the Straw Hat crew and Kuma, a glint of light flashed in his eyes.
"This is indeed a good pledge of loyalty." "Let him in!" said Venus, the God of War.
Soon, Blackbeard's signature arrogant laughter rang out.
"Hahaha!! The Five Elders! And all my colleagues! It's been a long time!"
Blackbeard was seen with his core crew, including Lafitte and Van Augur.
And a Heroic Spirit exuding a powerful yet eerie aura, none other than Archer Arjuna, whose eyes were cold and whose pure white robes were entwined with wisps of black energy.
Another count was hidden in the shadows as they strode in.
Behind them, several members of the Blackbeard Pirates roughly shoved and rubbed Zoro, Sanji, Usopp, Nami, Chopper, who were tightly bound and covered in wounds, as well as Kuma, who was still unconscious and placed on a stretcher!
The story goes back to the attack on their western village.
Earlier, in a village on the western border of Alabasta.
The remaining members of the Straw Hat Pirates, led by Zoro and Sanji, cared for the unconscious Kuma while also helping the local villagers fend off occasional attacks from ferocious rainforest creatures and pirates.
They anxiously awaited news of Luffy and Roger, and also hoped that their comrades would bring reinforcements from the resistance.
However, the resistance's reinforcements were delayed as the navy strengthened the blockade.
With the help of the Earl's all-encompassing intelligence network, Blackbeard Teach pinpointed their hiding place with pinpoint accuracy.
He had been hiding in the rainforest within the Kingdom's military-controlled area, waiting for his chance.
Upon learning that the Five Elders had personally arrived in Alabasta, he was well aware of his own fickle nature. The guy who had seized Akainu's Heroic Spirit was in a delicate position, and was likely to be targeted by both sides.
Therefore, he decided to strike first, capturing the Straw Hat crew members as gifts to curry favor with Black and the World Government in exchange for temporary safety and benefits.
The attack came suddenly and violently.
There was no need for the Earl and Arjuna to take action; Blackbeard, having fully absorbed the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit, had already reached an extremely terrifying level of strength!
Zoro and Sanji fought desperately, unleashing their full power with their Three-Sword Style and Diable Jambe.
But their attacks seemed so pale and powerless in the face of Blackbeard's terrifying power that could devour everything and shake space!
Almost instantly, the two were sent flying, coughing up blood!
Usopp, Nami, and Chopper couldn't even get close!
In order to protect the villagers from being affected, Zoro, Sanji, and the others were forced to retreat.
They even tried to use some rudimentary techniques that they had learned or observed from the Red Team's heroes during their brief time together.
Zoro asked Roger what swordsmanship full of Haki was, while Sanji learned from Karna what life of flames was.
With their combined efforts, they managed to temporarily push the overconfident Blackbeard back a few steps.
However, just as Blackbeard was enraged and preparing to kill the entire village...
That's enough.
"stop."
Two cold voices rang out almost simultaneously.
It is the Earl and Arjuna.
Arjuna looked at the terrified and helpless villagers, especially the crying children.
A faint ripple seemed to flicker in those dark eyes, and a deep-seated reluctance stemming from his heroic nature made him instinctively shout to stop.
The count, on the other hand, simply felt that slaughtering ants was inelegant, and that his objective had been achieved.
Blackbeard seemed somewhat displeased to see the two heroic spirits.
In particular, Arjuna's cold gaze swept over him, instantly reminding him of the fear of being dominated by Karna.
He broke out in a cold sweat and quickly ordered his men to stop.
"Stop! Hahaha, we've achieved our goal! Take these guys away!"
Under the terrifying pressure of the two top-tier heroic spirits.
Exhausted and severely injured, Zoro, Sanji, and the others couldn't even muster the thought of resistance before everything went black and they completely lost consciousness.
Let's return to the present, to the royal palace conference room.
The black-bearded man proudly displayed his spoils.
"Hahaha! How about it? Five Elders, is this a sincere gift?"
"Straw Hat Luffy's right-hand men, and this mysterious Revolutionary Army officer Kuma! Using them to threaten Straw Hat Luffy and his Pirate King Heroic Spirit must be perfect, right?"
He glanced around, his gaze sweeping over Sengoku and Garp, whose faces were grim, and the Five Elders, whose eyes were gleaming.
He continued, "Even if you don't believe in my sincerity, you should at least understand that we're in the same boat now!"
"The Red Team has gathered so many monsters, you guys must be really short on combat power right now, right? Hehehe!"
His words did indeed tempt the Five Elders and some members of the Black Faction.
The Straw Hat crew members, as hostages, are of immense value.
The Blackbeard Pirates are already quite powerful, and with the addition of two strong Heroic Spirits, they are indeed a force to be reckoned with.
However, not everyone thinks this way.
Taigong Wang continued to smile and shake his God-Slaying Whip, remaining noncommittal.
Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent god, looked at Nami, Chopper, and the others who were bound, and his brows furrowed almost imperceptibly, as if he disliked this behavior.
As for the newly arrived Qingyuan Miaodao Zhenjun Yang, although his Uncle Taigong Wang had not yet had a chance to explain the situation of this realm to him in detail.
However, he possessed extraordinary abilities and keen insight, and could understand the general idea with just a little observation.
Seeing the black-bearded man's strangely shaped body and his fierce eyes.
He was definitely a person with a wretched appearance and a foul aura.
Yang felt a surge of disgust at their audacity in using the kidnapping of the weak and the harming of the innocent to commit violence and profit.
How could such despicable acts be tolerated by immortals and gods? What exactly is your purpose, Uncle-Master?
Just then, he received a subtle look from Taigong Wang.
next moment.
brush!
A golden light flashed by as if teleported!
No one even saw how Yang Chuo moved, but the tip of the three-pointed double-edged sword, radiating endless sharpness, was already pointing at Blackbeard Teach's brow with icy killing intent.
It was only millimeters away from his skin.
The speed was so fast that it seemed to ignore space!
What's even more surprising is...
Yang's action completely ignored the Count and Arjuna standing on either side of the black-bearded man.
The moment he made his move, the two heroic spirits unleashed a terrifying aura that was enough to make even a general-level expert hold his breath!
However, the overwhelming aura of dark vengeance and the whispers of vengeful spirits were insignificant in the face of Yang's pure and vast divine power.
The two forces had absolutely no effect on him!
The count's elegant smile froze, and for the first time, genuine shock appeared in his crimson eyes.
Arjuna's cold, vengeful eyes contracted sharply, and his fingers gripping the divine bow tightened instinctively.
The smug smile on the black-bearded man's face froze instantly, and beads of cold sweat immediately poured from his forehead!
He could clearly feel the terrifying power contained in the tip of the knife, enough to easily annihilate his soul!
He didn't even dare to swallow, fearing that the slightest tremor would cause his head to explode.
The atmosphere in the entire conference room instantly became extremely tense.
The golden divine mark on Yang's forehead glowed slightly, and although his third eye was not fully open, it already exuded a divine power that could see through everything.
His cold gaze pierced the black beard like a sharp sword, and his voice, calm yet carrying supreme authority, clearly reached everyone's ears.
"To hold the weak hostage and force them into submission is the act of a petty person, not the behavior of a true man."
He paused, and the tip of the three-pointed double-edged sword moved forward slightly, scaring the black-bearded man almost out of his wits.
Yang Chuo's gaze swept over the Five Elders and the Black Faction members, whose expressions had drastically changed, before finally settling on the terrified face of the Black Beard. He asked calmly, "What do you think, the Black Faction plus myself..."
"Is our combat strength sufficient?"
After he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.
Everyone was stunned by Yang's sudden tough stance!
This newly arrived heroic spirit seems to have far exceeded their expectations in terms of both strength and personality!
