Fortunately, Abel didn't seem to have this idea, and instead acquiesced that she could stand here.
"Gentlemen, under your witness, the seven final winners of this dragon hunting competition have finally been determined."
"Next, I will give you the title of [Seven Deadly Sins], as well as the rewards that you have fought for with your lives!"
"Follow the numbers on the golden key and come forward one by one."
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the man holding the golden key No. 1 strode onto the high platform and stood in front of Abel.
At the same time, it is also under everyone’s scrutiny.
"X. Drake, are you willing to join the Dragon Hunter Guild from now on, swear allegiance to me, and never betray?"
Under Abel's majestic gaze, Drake knelt down on one knee without hesitation and said solemnly: "I, X. Drake, swear to be loyal to you forever and never betray. If I violate my oath, I will be punished by heaven and earth! "
Abel looked at this guy deeply and said, "Okay, open the box in front of you."
Drake stood up and did as he was told, and took out a red devil fruit inside.
"This is the snake fruit, the phantom beast species, and the Yamata-no-Orochi form. In terms of preciousness, in a sense, it is even more precious than the natural one."
"Eat it."
Of course, Abel couldn't let someone take the Devil Fruit away directly, let alone the one he remembered in his memory.
Everyone must eat the devil fruit in front of him.
Drake immediately put it to his mouth and took a bite.
The taste was far beyond his imagination, which made him frown slightly and forcefully swallowed it.
But there was no thought of taking a second bite.
Anyway, the effect is the same whether you eat just one bite of the Devil Fruit or eat all of it, so there is no need to torture yourself.
When Abel saw this, he didn't care. He just continued to speak loudly: "From now on, you will be the sin of greed among the [Seven Deadly Sins] of the Dragon Hunting Guild. Remember your oath, if one day you betray me and Guild, I will personally take back all the things that have been given to you.”
"Drake would never dare!"
Abel nodded casually, indicating that he could go down.
At this time, a uniform voice immediately sounded from the crowd.
"The Sin of Greed, Drake!"
"The Sin of Greed, Drake!"
"The Sin of Greed, Drake!"
…
As the second person stepped onto the high platform, the cheers of the crowd gradually stopped. This was out of respect for President Abel.
"Skurachman Apu, are you willing to join the Dragon Hunting Guild from now on and swear allegiance to me and never betray?"
Abel looked at the other person and put great pressure on him.
Because this guy is not a loyal person, he is more like a wallflower.
It will only fall to the stronger side.
So as long as Abel is not defeated and maintains strong strength and power, then this guy will never be able to change the world.
Soon, Apu also swore allegiance to Abel.
Then he opened the treasure chest, got the superhuman Sound Fruit, and ate it.
Among the seven Devil Fruits that Abel took out as the final reward, in terms of rarity and value, perhaps this Sound Fruit can only be ranked first.
But just because this Devil Fruit is unique and has great potential for development, it doesn't mean it must be the weakest.
At least Apu didn't feel dissatisfied when he got this devil fruit.
"From now on, you are the sin of jealousy among the [Seven Deadly Sins] of the Dragon Hunting Guild."
"The sin of jealousy, Apu!"
"The sin of jealousy, Apu!"
"The sin of jealousy, Apu!"
…
The third person to ascend the high platform is Capone Becky from the West Sea Mafia family.
Although he looked like a big boss, he was dwarfed by Abel and was directly overpowered.
This is the result of Abel's convergence.
If he wants to give the opponent a show of strength, he only needs to release a little bit of domineering power to make him sweat.
It’s just that it’s not necessary for the time being.
The following process is still the same and will not be repeated.
Capone Becky opened the treasure box and got the Island Fruit, and the title he got was the sin of laziness.
The fourth person who came to Abel was finally a guy he neither knew nor heard of before.
But this guy is the target that ‘Eagle Eye’ Mihawk wants everyone to focus on!
The mysterious March.
To be honest, March standing here right now was not his original plan.
But as the saying goes, plans cannot keep up with changes.
Although he didn't want the so-called golden key, nor did he want to be so pushy, in the end, after going around and around, he had no choice but to get it.
Otherwise, he has no doubt that the arena he is in will eventually be annihilated.
With the cooperation of the giant bird and the awakened sacred tree, everyone on the island was almost wiped out.
In order to see Abel, March had to take risks and make new plans.
March pretended to be hesitant and said: "There is actually a reason why I did this. My identity is relatively sensitive. I am afraid that President Abel will not dare to accept me after you find out."
Wow!
As soon as these words came out, before Abel could say anything, the rest of the people below started to panic.
What did they just hear?
Someone actually said that their president didn’t dare?
Is there anything in this world that their president would not dare to do?
As a result, everyone was filled with indignation, the crowd became excited, and all kinds of voices instantly drowned it out.
Chapter 974: Blackbeard’s destiny is completely different
"Absolutely ridiculous!"
"Is there anything in this world that the president dare not do? It's simply ridiculous!"
"That's right, take off your mask and let us see where this big shot comes from, how dare he be so rampant!"
"Do you think you are a Celestial Dragon? A clown!"
"Get down!"
"Yes, get off! You don't deserve to be one of the Seven Deadly Sins!"
…
Amidst the excited curses from the members of the Dragon Hunting Guild, Abel raised a hand casually, and then slowly lowered it.
The next moment, the curses disappeared immediately.
The whole scene fell silent.
"March, take off your mask."
Abel didn't talk nonsense. Although he had vaguely guessed that there might be a big hole in the other party's identity, he had to shoot when the arrow was on the string.
Under such circumstances, if he backed down, it would be a huge blow to his reputation.
What's more, he also wants to know who the other party is.
Just like that, March took off his mask, revealing a simple and honest smiling face.
Almost no one present knew him, but the words he said immediately left countless people stunned.
"My name is indeed not Madge. My real name is Marshall Teach. I was an ordinary crew member of the Whitebeard Pirates before I came here."
Marshall Teach?
Almost no one has heard of this name.
But everyone present knows the weight of the name Whitebeard Pirates!
And many smart people immediately thought of what this guy said before, and figured out the meaning behind the other person's words, and then their expressions changed!
"Now things are getting more and more interesting."
When Abel heard the other party announcing his home address, he subconsciously fell into a trance.
He originally thought that after taking away the Dark Fruit, Blackbeard Teach would stay on Whitebeard Edward Newgate's ship for the rest of his life.
But he never expected that the dragon hunting competition he organized would actually attract this guy.
And it also posed a huge problem for him.
If this problem is not handled well, the relationship between the Dragon Hunter Guild and the Whitebeard Pirates will most likely become hostile in the future.
After all, this is not an ordinary employee job-hopping.
Edward Newgate regarded every crew member on the ship as his own son.
Now, his own son has turned around and 'rebelled' and joined someone else's pirate group. What will Whitebeard do?
If silent treatment is taken as ignorance, then the Four Emperors should not do it either. The pirate group should just disband and let everyone go home and farm.
"Since you said you are a crew member of the Whitebeard Pirates, why do you want to participate in the Dragon Hunting Competition again? Don't you know that the basic requirement for participating in the Dragon Hunting Competition is to be free."
"Or do you want to provoke a conflict between me and Whitebeard, huh?"
Buzz!
The overbearing and domineering person in the sky and the world immediately pressed towards Marshall Teach overwhelmingly.
Even Tiqi, who was mentally prepared, was shocked by Abel's overbearing look and aura, and his mind was taken away for a moment.
But he adapted immediately, and under the pressure of this momentum, he explained: "The rules of the competition do not say that you cannot leave the original pirate group to participate. I am no longer a member of the Whitebeard Pirates. I just want to join the Dragon Hunting Guild.”
This is indeed true.
Many pirate groups even disbanded and competed together.
And the pirate group is not something that has a lifelong tenure. Today this pirate group is broken up, and I can join that pirate group tomorrow.
Anyone who can no longer stay in any pirate group can quit.
It’s just that some need to pay a price, and some don’t.
But the same problem remains, the Whitebeard Pirates are an extremely special group.
So far, only the members of the Whitebeard Pirates who have died in battle have not quit.
In doing this, Marshall Teach was the first to do this.
"When I hear it, I think there's nothing wrong with it."
"It seems that even Katakuri-sama and Smoothie-sama were members of the BIGMOM pirates before."
"Drake and Capone Becky were even the captains of their respective pirate groups before. There is no problem."
"Yes, we can't be afraid just because they are the Whitebeard Pirates?"
"Bah! Our Dragon Hunting Guild is the strongest in the world, how can we be afraid of a mere Whitebeard Pirates!"
"If you ask me, this brother is still discerning. He knows that there is no future in staying in the Whitebeard Pirates, so he jumped to join us."
