Time Travel: Age of Discovery

"Don't worry, he's just a pirate with a bit of reputation."

Teya's actions of comforting his subordinates and revealing the enemy's true identity were premeditated. He wanted to make his subordinates aware of the importance of their situation beforehand, so as to prevent them from acting impulsively when the battle came.

Although in the eyes of everyone, Doflamingo was like an insignificant duckweed in Thea's description, but in the hearts of Tina and other navy officers, his rise had already become a surging force, and everyone in the North Sea knew his name.

Following Teya, they all felt at ease, so they were not afraid of fighting. Moreover, this was just a supervisory task, and perhaps there was no need to fight with real weapons.

But the thoughtful Teya knew that war was inevitable and he would face a contest between two forces.

At the same time, in the other direction.

The pirate ship, braving the wind and waves, approached, forming an angle with Thea's location, and the two ships were about to meet. A crew member asked Rosinante, who was standing at the bow, tentatively, "Captain, is there really a treasure there?" However, Rosinante did not answer.

After a brief silence, he turned and gestured to everyone. That was the captain's sign, a sign that everything was proceeding according to plan. The pirates followed Rosinante's orders, completely unaware of the fierce battle that was about to unfold.

...

The scenery on the isolated island is picturesque, but no one is in the mood to appreciate it.

A dozen people stood silently here, as if awaiting a wrestling match. The air was quiet, the tension only revealed by the negotiation-like layout, complete with chairs and tables.

Doflamingo sat sternly, his eyes dark and unfathomable beneath his sunglasses. His followers whispered among themselves, approaching to whisper.

“Hasn’t it arrived yet? Why is it taking so long?”

"Hush, be patient."

Suddenly, a seemingly ordinary pirate came running over from a distance, his face filled with anxiety. He fell to his knees and stared at Doflamingo in the chair, gasping for breath.

"explain."

"Young Master, there was a battle in the nearby waters between a navy ship and a pirate ship."

Doflamingo's smile faded upon hearing this, clearly dissatisfied with the answer, seemingly finding it rather ridiculous. But he peered through his sunglasses at the kneeling figure and asked, "What's so special about a mere naval vessel?"

"Young Master, the pirate group they are fighting is the Silent Pirates."

These words resonated like thunder, sending ripples through the hearts of those present. Ever since learning his brother had left home to become a pirate and was wanted, Doflamingo had searched extensively for him, to no avail. He had intended to devote his resources to the search after the matter was resolved, but unexpectedly, his brother was right before his eyes.

Doflamingo was shocked and noticed something was amiss, but not knowing what it was, he stood up without hesitation and prepared to leave.

"Young Master, where are you going?"

"Didn't you hear my brother is under attack from the navy? I'm going to support him. Vergo, come later, the rest of you stay."

After saying that, Doflamingo led the person who reported it and headed straight for the sea.

...

“Keep firing!”

The pirate ship fired a barrage of cannon fire and charged towards the warship, but was intercepted by the agile Teya. Teya flapped her wings and flew towards the pirate ship, landing on the deck, and was immediately surrounded by a group of pirates.

Weapons were firmly grasped, and no one showed fear. Teya noticed this, and it seemed likely that these people were unaware of their true identities. At this moment, the crowd parted, and a man in a cloak and blond hair stepped out, gazing solemnly at Teya—it was Rocinante.

He whipped out his scimitar and charged straight at Teya, showing no sign of retreat. A ruthless confrontation was just what he wanted.

Thea's expression remained stoic. He couldn't afford to be careless at this moment, as Doflamingo might suddenly arrive. That would be when the plan would begin. But right now, he could use this opportunity to clean up the mess.

His right hand, hardened as iron, withstood Rocinante's blows and counterattacked, forcing him to retreat several steps. Teya feigned a hint of surprise and whispered, "Oh? You're quite capable, actually taking my blow head-on."

Rosinante said nothing, his eyes were icy cold. Teya admired his patience, but also understood that it might be related to the ability of the fruit.

The two continued to clash, with Thea and Rocinante winning and losing. The pirates who watched thought they might be able to fight, but Thea kept defeating them. In the end, only Thea and Rocinante were left, and the fight between the two became more intense.

The other pirates had already fainted. Although Rosinante remained silent, the look he gave Thea revealed everything. The two of them had a tacit understanding.

"Huh? Really? You want me to teach you a lesson?"

"Of course, otherwise how could others be convinced. Don't worry, I can hold on..."

Recalling the previous conversation with Rocinante, Teya strengthened his conviction and took action.

Following Teya's instructions, the warship's crew remained silent, only to sense a sudden silence on the pirate ship. Then, a dark shadow descended from the air towards the ship. Teya had already dodged to the side, and the deck where he had stood seemed to have been completely severed, as if it had been cut open.

The man ignored Teya, but first checked on the seriously injured and semi-conscious Rosinante. A powerful aura burst out from his body, carrying with it endless anger.

The navy in the distance looked at the dark shadow on the pirate ship and broke out in a cold sweat. The momentum just now was too terrifying.

Teya still stood there, his eyes fixed on the man opposite him, his pupils slightly shrunken.

"Doflamingo..."

On the pirate ship, only Thea and Doflamingo were in opposition, and the atmosphere was even more tense than before, especially with Doflamingo, whose pervasive domineering aura was like a storm.

Teya frowned slightly, remaining immune to Conqueror's Haki. Ever since witnessing Roger's Conqueror's Haki, Teya felt that other Conqueror's Haki lacked a certain degree of intimidation...
