One Piece, I will gather the faith

Just when Van Oka said he wanted to visit Lake and the guard wanted to report the situation to Old John, Lake had already walked over.

"Priest!"

"Lake!"

Everyone greeted him when they saw this.

"Where did the distinguished guest come from?" Lake was as calm as ever, smiled and nodded to everyone, and then said.

"Hahahahahahahaha," Blackbeard laughed strangely, with greed in his eyes, "We came from the Grand Line through the Calm Belt specifically, just to see the legendary priest of God."

"You're kidding!" Luffy pointed at Blackbeard with one hand on his waist, looking unbelieving, "How could you possibly pass through the Calm Belt?"

Is this a grudge, or is it fate that the two of them are not in harmony, Lake thought to himself when he saw this. .

"Hahahaha, Fan, we are underestimated," Blackbeard was not angry, but laughed, "Hey, Straw Hat Boy, are you looking down on us?"

"Humph!"

Luffy pouted his face, unbelieving.

"Hahahaha, Straw Hat Boy, don't look down on any opponent on the sea, you will suffer a great loss." Blackbeard warned loudly when he saw Luffy ignored him.

It was this sentence that made Blackbeard's personality taller, and Luffy began to look at him squarely, and obviously agreed with this truth.

"Did you really pass through the Calm Belt and come from the Grand Line?" Luffy asked seriously.

"Of course!" Blackbeard laughed.

"Then you really want to become the Pirate King?"

"Hahahaha, of course!"

The two of them were on edge again, and their eyes were like lightning and thunder.

Perhaps thinking of the fatalism of the Will of D, Lake really thought that the two of them were interesting.

However, Lake really felt that Blackbeard had some personal charm at this time. No wonder he was one of the four emperors who occupied Beehive Island in the original work.

"Luffy, okay, they can only come from the Grand Line through the Calm Belt, which is nothing to the real strong." Lake stopped Luffy.

"Haha ... He estimated that Blackbeard was only at the level of a vice-captain at this time. Now that his strength has greatly increased, with the awakening of the Observation Haki and the Ultra Instinct Body, Van Oka could not hit him at all.

The Ultra Instinct Body was a reference to the setting of a certain bead next door. He found that the two had the same purpose and the same goal, so he directly borrowed the name.

"Well, let's talk alone, everyone follow me, Luffy, Sanji, you also go to practice." Lake arranged to everyone.

Luffy, who was originally ready to entangle, was also forcibly pulled away by Sanji, but he was still shouting, something like the man of the Pirate King.

Blackbeard and others laughed at this scene. Obviously, they didn't know at this time that this kid wearing a straw hat would be their biggest enemy in the future.

"Everyone follow me."

After Lake finished speaking, he walked ahead on his own, led Blackbeard and others into the church, with a slight smile on his lips and a hint of teasing in his eyes.

Seeing this, Blackbeard struggled in his heart, but after taking a look at the guards around him, he gave up the idea of ​​taking action here.

Soon, several people arrived at the church.

In the wide church hall, at this time, there were only Blackbeard and Lake.

The atmosphere seemed to become oppressive all of a sudden.

"Marshall D. Teach, what is your purpose in coming to me?" Lake looked at Blackbeard with a smile and asked meaningfully.

"You... you actually know me?" Blackbeard was obviously a little panicked. He didn't expect Lake to know his identity. At this time, he was just like an ordinary person who was caught doing bad things and was recognized.

"You are also a celebrity on the sea now. What's strange about me knowing you? If there is anything strange, it can only be why you came to me." Lake asked back.

"Hahahahahahaha, indeed, it's not strange!"

Blackbeard seemed to have regained his heroic appearance, arrogant and arrogant.

This expression made Lake want to beat him right now, he was really too damn pretentious, but thinking that this guy was still useful, he endured it.Come.

"Go, Van!" Suddenly, Blackbeard shouted.

As soon as he finished speaking, Van Oka raised his sniper rifle and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Bang!"

The sound of a bullet was fired at high speed.

From Blackbeard's order to Van Oka's firing, the movements were done in one go, and it was obvious that they had rehearsed for a long time to have a tacit understanding.

The bullet whizzed towards Lake at a very fast speed.

But no matter how fast this bullet was, could it be as fast as the energy sniper rifle in the Fantasy World?

That was obviously impossible.

So, Lake could dodge Van Oka's bullet with his eyes closed.

But now Lake had just awakened his Observation Haki, and he obviously wanted to show off his holy outfit in front of others, so he didn't dodge at all.

His hand wrapped in Armament Haki had already stopped on the trajectory of the bullet, and the special bullet made of seastone was firmly stopped between his fingers and in front of his face.

Seeing this, Van Oka was shocked.

He knew the power of his bullet very well, and even ordinary Armament Haki would be injured. And Lake caught it so easily, which was obviously something that only extremely powerful Armament Haki and Observation Haki could do.

"Captain, do it!" Van Oka shouted hurriedly, and pulled the trigger again to attack Lake.

"Dark Water!"

Upon hearing this, Blackbeard activated his ability at the same time, trying to suck Lake in front of him, and then use the ability of the Dark Dark Fruit to restrain him.

At this time, he still firmly believed that Lake was the ability of the Devil Fruit.

The strong attraction instantly attracted Lake, but for Lake, who took the route of extreme physical enhancement, such attraction was just a tickle.

At the same time, Lake also chose to resist Van Oka's attack. The reason for resisting was not that his masochistic nature was developed. It was because he already knew the power of the gun and it would not cause him any harm.

Therefore, he just chose to cooperate with the observation Haki and the armament Haki, partially hardened, and directly resisted.

Lake wanted to make them despair in hope and plant a seed in their hearts.

And after resisting the attraction of Blackbeard for a while, he even deliberately let Blackbeard suck him.

He was seen to be in front of Blackbeard in an instant.

"Thief hahahahaha!"

Seeing this, Blackbeard laughed wildly again, as if he had seen victory.

However, he did not notice the teasing in Lake's eyes.
