Chapter 159 Durant’s Cruelty (Ch 159)

Time passed quickly, and more than half a month had passed in the blink of an eye. At this moment, the leaders of countries from all over the world who had joined the alliance were rushing to the sacred place – Marijoa. At the same time, a thrilling raid was brewing.
The Death Pirates, led by their leader Durant, swooped down like ghosts towards the Wanoku controlled by Big Mom Charlotte Linlin. As luck would have it, Big Mom Charlotte Linlin and Kaido of Beasts happened to be on the Cake Island at this time.
Upon hearing that the invading enemy was the Death Pirates, Kaido the Beast could not help but be furious. He roared at the top of his voice: “How abominable! This damn Durant actually used such a despicable and disgusting trick to attack again!”
However, facing the wrath of Kaido, Big Mom Charlotte Linlin seemed quite calm and composed. She laughed unrestrainedly, “Hahahahahaha… Kaido, why are you so panicked? Stay calm, we will work together to fight the enemy. How can a mere Durant kid be our opponent when we join forces?”
In the eyes of Big Mom Charlotte Linlin, although Durant might have some ability, he would never be able to withstand the fierce attack after she and Kaido joined forces. After all, they were peerless masters who were feared by all!
But Kaido, the King of Beasts, was not infected by Big Mom Charlotte Linlin’s optimistic attitude. He stared at the old woman in front of him and reminded her solemnly: “Don’t take it lightly, old woman! You know, Teacher Du is a person who possesses multiple devil fruit abilities!” His words revealed his deep fear of Durant’s strength.
Aunt Charlotte Lingling showed a smug smile on her face and let out a low laugh: “Mama mama~~Hahahahaha~” Her huge body swayed slightly, as if the whole world was shaking with her laughter.
“Hehehe… Kaido, don’t worry! My Ten Thousand Kingdoms is as solid as a rock, and we have already made all the necessary precautions. Now, we just need to work together to get rid of that brat named Durant, and the victory of this war will surely belong to us!” Charlotte Linling said confidently.
Kaido, the King of Beasts, nodded in agreement: “Yes, that’s right! On the battlefield, as long as you can defeat the enemy leader, then the battle is basically won.” He knew this truth very well, so he was full of expectations for the upcoming showdown with Durant.
At this moment, a roar suddenly came from the sky, and a huge pirate ship slowly appeared in front of everyone.
The ship was full of men in black uniforms, the elites of the Death Pirates. The beautiful yet ruthless woman standing at the bow was the vice-captain of the Death Pirates, Boa Hancock.
Charlotte Lingling stared with wide eyes, looking for Durant everywhere, but she found nothing. She shouted angrily: “Damn Durant, where did that guy go?” The sound echoed in the air like thunder.
Facing Charlotte Linlin’s questioning, Boa Hancock responded expressionlessly: “Stop talking nonsense, old woman! Go find him yourself if you can!” After that, she gave the order to attack without hesitation: “Everyone, pay attention, prepare for battle! Don’t waste time with these guys, just charge!”
It turns out that all of this was a tactical arrangement carefully planned by the Death God Pirates. Captain Durant took advantage of the chaos to hunt down Charlotte Linlin’s men one by one, while the other members were responsible for restraining Kaido and Charlotte Linlin herself, creating an opportunity for Durant to become captain.
In this way, the enemy’s strength can be weakened while the safety of the main force can be guaranteed. A thrilling naval battle thus began…
At this moment, a clear and rapid ringing sound suddenly came from the huge body of Aunt Charlotte Lingling!
Beep, beep, beep… The sound kept echoing, as if foreshadowing that some ominous sign was about to happen.
After the call was quickly connected, Perospero’s panicked and anxious voice was heard: “Mom, the situation has become extremely critical! Durant launched a fierce attack on us without any scruples. We are completely unable to compete with him. He is simply invincible!”
After hearing these words, Charlotte Lingling just replied indifferently: “I know what’s going on.” Then she hung up the phone without hesitation. At this moment, her heart was like a storm, and she was extremely depressed and irritable.
Kaido, the beast on the side, saw this and immediately stepped forward and suggested: “How about this, let me fly over and stop Durant’s advance to prevent the situation from getting worse.”
However, before Kaido the Beast could take any action, Charlotte Linlin raised her hand to signal him to be patient, and then said in a firm tone: “Wait a minute, Kaido. The most urgent task right now is to concentrate our strength to defeat Durant’s minions in front of us. As for Durant himself, we will find a chance to annihilate him in one fell swoop later.”
Although her heart was also filled with hatred and murderous intent towards Durant, Charlotte Linling knew that she had to remain calm and rational at this moment.
After receiving the order, Kaido, the King of Beasts, slowly withdrew his gaze and instead stared at Durant’s subordinates with vicious eyes.
He held the huge mace weapon that was flashing with cold light tightly in his hands, and said with gritted teeth: “No problem!” Before he finished speaking, an invisible pressure instantly spread, which made people shudder.
At this critical moment, Durant was like a ferocious beast, mercilessly slaughtering the BIGMOM Pirates. His eyes were cold and ruthless, as if he had no mercy at all. The blade in his hand flashed with cold light, and every swing brought death and fear.
No matter whether they are strong men with special abilities or ordinary crew members, no one can escape Durant’s pursuit. He is like a sophisticated killing machine, starting with the weakest enemy and gradually attacking stronger opponents, never giving anyone a chance to breathe.
Faced with such a horrific situation, the members of Charlotte’s family fell into deep despair. They shouted in fear: “Mom, come and save us!!”
The voice was full of helplessness and pleading. However, at this moment, they had no way to escape. Outside, the Death Pirates had sealed off their hope of escape, and inside, Durant was ruthlessly slaughtering them, making it impossible for them to resist.
These once-mighty children of Charlotte can only watch their companions fall one by one, and the fear in their hearts becomes more and more intense.
Their spirits were almost broken, and they had completely lost their former pride and confidence. In this bloody battlefield, life became so fragile that death could come at any time.
Cracker stared at Durant in astonishment with his eyes wide open. He shouted in a trembling voice, “You…you are actually Durant! Where is our mother? Shouldn’t she stop you?”
His heart was filled with doubts and fears, and he had never expected Durant to appear in front of him so suddenly. According to common sense, Durant should be restrained by his mother at this moment and would not have the opportunity to come here.
At this moment, Durant took a deep breath and prepared to use the power of the Dark Devil Fruit. In an instant, a strong dark aura emerged from him, as if to devour the entire space.
Cracker was acutely aware of this abnormal energy fluctuation and suddenly felt a chill. He was horrified to find that the devil fruit ability in his body began to gradually disappear, as if it was being drained away by some invisible force.
Faced with this sudden change, Cracker fell into extreme panic.
He tried desperately to resist this mysterious force, but found himself powerless in the face of Durant’s overwhelming strength. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not break free from the other party’s restraints.
“No! I absolutely cannot die like this!” Cracker’s heart was filled with reluctance and despair. He tried to break free with all his strength, but it was all in vain.
As time went by, his body became weaker and weaker, and his consciousness became increasingly blurred.
Finally, under the continuous influence of Durant’s powerful force, the devil fruit ability in Cracker’s body was completely extracted.
Without the support of his strength, he was like a candle in the wind, and the flame of life was about to go out. Durant reached out his hand mercilessly and twisted Cracker’s neck with force.
There was a crisp breaking sound, and Cracker’s body collapsed to the ground powerlessly, without any life left.
After Durant successfully killed Cracker, he did not stop, but continued on a bloody killing spree, targeting the core cadres of the BIGMOM Pirates.
At this moment, Smoothie suddenly raised her head and stared straight at the figure who suddenly attacked her. Her face was full of pain and disbelief. She said in a trembling voice: “It turned out to be you… Durant! I never thought that I would be so fragile and vulnerable in front of you!”
Just through that one strike, Smoothie clearly realized that the power displayed by Durant far exceeded that of their captain – mother Charlotte Linling.
You know, even if she was as strong as her mother Charlotte Lingling, it would be impossible for her to do such a huge and terrible harm to her with just one blow like Durant did. This discovery made Smoothie feel a deep despair.
Durant took firm and steady steps, approaching Smoothie step by step. With each step, he exuded a suffocating sense of terror and oppression, as if an invisible mountain was gradually pressing down on Smoothie. This pressure made Smoothie almost unable to breathe, but she was powerless to resist.
At this moment, Smoothie seemed to have accepted his fate of failure. Since he had already failed miserably, no matter how many words he said, they would be powerless.
She stood there quietly, her eyes revealing a hint of determination and helplessness. Perhaps, for her, facing such a powerful opponent, she had no choice but to accept the outcome calmly.
Durant suddenly stretched out a hand and pressed it hard on Smoothie’s head like a mountain crushing an egg!
At the same time, a heart-pounding dark aura emanated from him, which was the unique devouring power of the Dark-Dark Fruit!
In an instant, Smoothie felt that the devil fruit ability in his body was like a flood that broke through a dam, and was being forcibly drawn out by Durant continuously!
Her eyes widened, her face full of disbelief and fear, and she shouted in a trembling voice: “My devil fruit ability… Durant, who are you?!”
At this moment, Smoothie truly realized how terrifying the man in front of her was. His existence was beyond her imagination. If she allowed such a terrifying person to continue to grow, the whole world would probably fall into his control, right?
After all, in this world where the strong prey on the weak and strength determines who is a hero, whoever has greater power will have absolute say and decision-making power.
When Durant extracted all of Smoothie’s devil fruit abilities from her body, Smoothie did not die on the spot.
However, without the support of the devil fruit ability, her body fell into an extremely weak state, like a candle in the wind, and the flame of life could be extinguished at any time. However, it was only a matter of time.
At this moment, Durant’s use of strength and devil fruit abilities has reached perfection, reaching the pinnacle!
Not long after, Katakuri was completely suppressed by Durant without any chance to fight back! Faced with such a predicament, Katakuri was filled with a deep sense of powerlessness and frustration.
He tried his best to break free from this powerful bondage, but no matter how hard he tried, it was of no avail. It was as if there was an invisible and intangible mysterious force that locked his body tightly like a mountain crushing an egg, making him unable to move at all.
Katakuri was unwilling to accept this, and uttered a low and angry voice: “Could it be that the gap between me and Durant is really as huge as a chasm that is difficult to cross?”
You know, even his mother, the Four Emperors BIGMOM, who was so powerful and feared by countless people, had never brought him such a heavy sense of oppression.
However, at this moment, Durant in front of him did it easily, which undoubtedly made Katakuri wake up instantly.
He finally realized that his mother’s ability was far inferior to Durant’s. At least from the current point of view, Durant was obviously a level higher than his mother.
If not, how could he, as the leader of the Four Emperors BIGMOM Pirate Group, feel such overwhelming and suffocating pressure in front of the other party?
What’s worse is that Katakuri was horrified to find that the power of the devil fruit in his body was gradually dissipating. The originally surging power was becoming weaker and weaker, as if it would dissipate at any time.
There is no doubt that he has been completely suppressed by Durant in all aspects, without any room for resistance.
