Chương 1689: Napoleon VS Blackbeard (22)

And when Blackbeard saw Badgers being brought out, his face instantly became extremely gloomy.

Although his face remained expressionless, his heart was like a raging storm, undergoing several ups and downs.

However, in this suffocating and tense atmosphere, Blackbeard suddenly laughed wildly: "Hahahahahahaha, Badgers, you're not dead yet! I thought you were dead!"

His laughter echoed in the air, revealing an indescribable sense of mockery and sarcasm.

Blackbeard completely ignored Napoleon who was standing beside him. His eyes were like a hungry wolf, staring at Badgers as if he wanted to eat him alive.

"Why don't you die!"

His voice was low and cold, and the malice contained in it was chilling.

At this time, Badges was being held in Murat's hand like a chicken.

His already scarred face was now even more swollen and covered with bruises.

Badgers raised his head with difficulty, looked at Blackbeard with the last bit of strength he had left, and said weakly: "I'm sorry, Captain, I lost..."

Before he finished speaking, his head slowly drooped down as if it had lost support.

Seeing this, Napoleon quickly reached out and lifted up Badger's head, so that his face was facing Blackbeard again.

Then, Napoleon stared at Blackbeard without flinching and said, "Blackbeard, how about we make a deal?"

His voice was calm and firm, as if he had anticipated Blackbeard's reaction.

Hearing Napoleon's proposal, a smile appeared on Blackbeard's face again, but this time there was more disdain and contempt in the smile.

"Thief hahahaha, just a complete loser, the Blackbeard Pirates don't need this kind of trash!"

He responded to Napoleon with a laugh that was full of contempt for Badgers.

"is it?"

Napoleon raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a playful smile. The trident of Poseidon in his hand flashed with a cold light and was placed directly on Badgers' neck.

The sharp tip of the halberd was only a hair's breadth away from Badgers' throat, as if with just a little force it could easily cut his throat, causing blood to gush out.

Blackbeard's face suddenly became extremely gloomy. He widened his eyes and stared at Napoleon, with a thin layer of sweat even appearing on his forehead.

He had never expected that Napoleon would act so decisively, and in full view of everyone.

The other members of the Blackbeard Pirates were also stunned by this sudden scene. Their eyes were all focused on Blackbeard, wanting to see how the captain would deal with the situation.

They don't actually care about Badgers' life or death. After all, in this world full of cruelty and killing, death is a common thing.

However, the attitude of Captain Blackbeard is crucial because his decision will affect the future direction of the entire Blackbeard Pirates.

Everyone was secretly guessing what Blackbeard was thinking, while also paying close attention to his every move.

Blackbeard naturally understood what everyone was thinking. He felt the thorny gazes from all around him and a surge of anger rose in his heart.

But he was a shrewd man after all, and he soon calmed down.

"Hmph, Napoleon, you win!"

Blackbeard squeezed out these words from between his teeth, his voice was cold and contained a hint of unwillingness.

After saying this, he waved his hand at Van Oka, indicating that he should follow his orders.

Seeing this, Van Oka showed a hint of hesitation on his face.

He glanced at Napoleon with some fear, obviously afraid of the trident of Poseidon in his hand.

"Don't worry, Napoleon is just like Whitebeard and Ace. It's no problem to hand him over!"

Blackbeard had a confident smile on his face and stared at Napoleon closely, as if he had already secured victory.

After hearing Blackbeard's words, Van Oka, who was standing nearby, put away the gun in his hand without hesitation.

At the same time, he kicked up and kicked the fishman under his feet hard.

The moment the fishman was freed from his restraints, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The fishman raised his head with difficulty and looked at Van Oka, his eyes full of fear and anger.

However, he still endured the severe pain in his shoulder and walked towards Napoleon step by step.

Seeing this, Napoleon felt a little relieved.

He slowly put away the trident of Poseidon in his hand, then suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed the back of Badgers' neck tightly like an iron clamp.

This sudden scene made Blackbeard's heart tighten.

He stared at Napoleon with his eyes wide open, fearing that he would do something bad to Badgers.

However, just in the next second when Blackbeard's heartbeat almost stopped, Napoleon suddenly lifted up with force and threw Bugles towards the Blackbeard Pirates like throwing away garbage.

Buggy's body drew an arc in the air, and then fell heavily onto the deck of the Blackbeard Pirates.

This made Blackbeard feel relaxed instantly.

Seeing this, Lafitte, who was standing in mid-air, immediately flapped his wings quickly and rushed away like a flash of lightning.

He caught the unconscious Badgers steadily in mid-air, and then landed lightly on the ship of the Blackbeard Pirates.

At this point, the exchange between the two parties was finally completed successfully.

Blackbeard looked at the unconscious Badger, with a barely perceptible worry in his eyes.

But he quickly regained his composure, looked deeply at Napoleon, waved to the people behind him, and shouted: "Young men, go!"

When the members of the Blackbeard Pirates heard the order, they turned around and quickly retreated to their own fleet.

Napoleon just stood there quietly, following the Blackbeard Pirates with his eyes, watching them go farther and farther away.

"Captain, are we just going to let them go?"

Murat stood beside Napoleon and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Napoleon did not answer immediately, his eyes still stayed in the direction of the Blackbeard Pirates, as if he could see their every move through the vast sea.

After a while, Napoleon slowly turned his head, looked deeply at Murat, and then cast his gaze towards the Blackbeard Pirates in the distance.

"Murat."

Napoleon's voice was low and firm.

"We are facing a group of opponents who have no bottom line and whose methods are despicable and insidious."

He paused, then continued, "But we have successfully opened up the situation in Paradise, and the Blackbeard Pirates have already admitted defeat. Next, what we have to do is to take over their territory and consolidate our position in this sea area."
