Starting with Kengan beating up the Pirate King

Chapter 86 Bullying (Seeking monthly votes to continue reading)
When Teach was forced by Guan Yi to ask for the Dark-Dark Fruit, the future of the world had already undergone a dramatic change.

Sachi will not be assassinated by Teach.

Ace will not be arrested for chasing Teach.

The Marineford War wouldn't have broken out, and Whitebeard might have lived a few more years.

Therefore, in that instant, Guan Yi gained three large sums of life points and dozens of smaller sums of life points, totaling nearly 10 points, almost equal to all the gains he made from 'planning' the World War II.

But he knew this wasn't over yet.

Stunned gazes were fixed on Teach; Whitebeard's crew were clearly astonished.

In their minds, Teach was always a low-key, unassuming man. Despite being a veteran on the ship, he didn't have a single bounty on his head. If it weren't for Shanks boarding the ship last time and saying he had been injured by Teach, he would have been practically invisible on the ship, with no one paying any attention to him.

But now, Teach is actually asking for a Devil Fruit, and even going so far as to 'compete' with Ian, the Emperor of the Sea?
"Teach wants it too?"

"This……"

Whitebeard's gaze was somewhat profound, as if he could see through Teach's heart, and he remained silent.

Teach knew his actions were out of character, but faced with Guan Yi, he was truly at a loss and could only manage a dry laugh, "I'm really sorry, Ian, could you give it to me?"

The most difficult situation right now is for Sachi.

On one hand are the brothers on the ship, and on the other hand is the person I just promised to go out with. I'm definitely closer to the former, but I can't go back on my word, can I?
He paused for a moment, then said helplessly, "Teach, you should have said so sooner. This fruit now belongs to Ian. If you want it, go and talk to him."

The promise was more important, so he placed the fruit directly into Guan Yi's hand. Teach's heart skipped a beat, and he could only look at Guan Yi with hopeful eyes.

With his dark face and thick beard, his hopeful expression was... kind of disgusting.

"Hey! Teach, stop doing that!"

"It seems like they really want it."

“Ian…” Ace nudged Guan Yi gently, “If it’s not absolutely necessary…”

Guan Yi smiled and said, "That makes me a little embarrassed. How about this, Teach, let's talk alone. I'll give you some special compensation, see if that's okay? If not, you can have the fruit!"

The Whitebeard crew members around him immediately relaxed. Is that so? That's for the best. I wonder what kind of compensation Ian will give Teach? Could it be some kind of secret to becoming stronger?
Teach had all sorts of guesses in his mind, but no matter what kind of compensation he received, nothing was more important than the Dark-Dark Fruit. He had to get the fruit!

Out of respect for Guan Yi, he followed Guan Yi to the ship's storage compartment amidst the curiosity of the crew, where he heard Guan Yi say in a low voice with a smile.

"Teach, if you try to take the Dark-Dark Fruit from me again, I'll secretly kill you."

"...?"

For a moment, Teach didn't even realize what was happening. Where was he? He was on the ship of Whitebeard, the strongest man in the world and the most protective of his own!
As Dad's son, I was threatened on Dad's ship? They said they'd secretly kill me if I argued with them again? Ian doesn't seem like that kind of guy at all; he's been very easy to get along with these past few days!
He looked at Guan Yi in astonishment, and Guan Yi patted him on the shoulder: "David D. Teach, do you know what you should do?"

"!!!"

Teach's pupils suddenly contracted, and for a moment he even wanted to launch a sneak attack, but looking at Guan Yi's face, he gradually calmed down.

We can't beat them, we absolutely can't win!

Even if you obtain the Dark-Dark Fruit, it's still too early to face this kind of guy.

how so? !

How did he find out about this?!

Nobody knows that David is the one now!

“The David family should have a servant named Cook, right? He survived the Valley of the Gods 35 years ago,” Guan Yi continued.

Cook? No, that's not a name, and my mother and grandfather didn't employ any servants! But it might be an alias? Which one? Damn it, so that's how it is. Ian stayed on the ship for two months, actually after me?!
"Don't be nervous. Do you think Whitebeard, as a member of Rocks' crew, is completely unaware of your true identity? I don't want to offend him, and you shouldn't offend me either. Just stay on Whitebeard's ship and be a good son. Relax, let's go out." A minute later, Teach stood before the crew with a broad smile: "Zehahaha... I got the better deal. The Dark-Dark Fruit is still for Ian; his compensation... Zehahahaha..."

"Hey, stop keeping me in suspense!"

The crew members gathered around curiously, asking questions.

Teach mumbled incoherently, his heart bleeding.

Whitebeard frowned inwardly.

Guan Yi made a huge profit.

[Life Points +133580]!
……

A few days later, carrying the Dark-Dark Fruit, Guan Yi ended his journey on Whitebeard's ship.

He did nothing to Teach and was not worried at all that Teach might plot revenge or anything.

With such formidable strength, wouldn't it be a waste of all that hard work if he didn't bully others? Especially bullying villains like Blackbeard to earn life points, Guan Yi felt even less burdened.

What can he do?
Would he dare to retaliate?
If he had any brains, he would have to obediently continue being a son on Whitebeard's ship.

I've been doing this my whole life!
Not satisfied with bullying Teach, Guan Yi's journey was not over yet, and he immediately went to Punk Hazard, Doflamingo's territory!

Upon hearing of Guan Yi's arrival, Doflamingo quickly went out to greet him, walking with an arrogant gait, his face full of smiles, showing no trace of his previous disdain and wariness towards the 'Seven Warlords of the Sea'.

"Fufufufu, I never expected the famous Flame Tiger Ian to suddenly appear here. Lord Kaido asked me to find you a few days ago. It seems there's a clue to the fourth Road Poneglyph."

Guan Yi realized that he was subtly pointing out his cooperative relationship with Kaido, and that this was the only way he could elevate his status in front of him.

Meanwhile, Doflamingo was also quietly observing Guan Yi and the broken Golden Bell standing beside him, trying to figure out Guan Yi's intentions.

"Is that so? I'd better hurry back."

Guan Yi smiled and said, "I didn't come here for anything else, just wanted to sell some gold. You seem to have good connections in this area, so I'll entrust it to you."

Look at this bell, weighing over twenty tons, made of pure gold, selling it for 300 billion Berries wouldn't be an exaggeration. They're all Kaido's partners, so 280 billion is yours!

Doflamingo paused for a moment, then said with his smile unchanged, "Then I'll take advantage of this opportunity."

He warmly welcomed Guan Yi, instructed his men to retrieve the money from the vault, and after the transaction was completed, he saw Guan Yi off with a smile all the way.

Only then did his expression darken. His subordinates, somewhat puzzled, asked, "Young Master, we have a cooperative relationship with Tesoro. What do we need this golden bell for? This is going to be difficult to handle!"

Doflamingo snorted. That bastard came to sell clocks? No, he came to rob them!
Could I refuse? Would I dare refuse? His name, the nemesis of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, has not been forgotten!

"Fufufufu... Ian the Flame Tiger? We'll see. Kaido has found the suspected location of the fourth Road Poneglyph, but if they really want to obtain that stone, they will inevitably have a battle with the Navy and the World Government! A battle on a larger scale than the Whole Cake Island battle four months ago, a battle to decide the outcome!"

What will happen then...? Will you still be as arrogant as you are now, Ian!
Flying high in the sky on their way back to the world, Guan Yi murmured to himself, 'They found it pretty quickly.'

Thankfully, I got everything I wanted!

[Wealth: 283.7 billion Berry]

[Life Points: 276996]

These earnings will be enough to support Guan Yi in completing the 11th and 12th infrastructure projects, worth 50 billion and 100 billion Berries respectively, allowing him to continue his training for another two years! They will also allow Guan Yi to interact with international superstars twice and have one last interaction with a local celebrity!

Guan Yi will gain even greater power.

Reaching new heights!

　Last week everyone was incredibly supportive! I originally wanted to compete with the Three Rivers Award winners, but everyone's monthly votes propelled me to the better recommendation section. This week, I'll continue the Three Rivers Award competition. If I win, my book will be available next Monday; if not, it will be available this Friday, which is the day after tomorrow. Two days is a small difference, but I still hope for a successful launch period. Please give me some more votes!
