060 Blackbeard Titanic Captain

Almost in just an instant, the Kidd Alliance was completely wiped out.

Scratchmen Apoo, the only one alive, was seriously injured and fell to the ground.

Shiryu's scarlet eyes surveyed the pirates present who had intended to join Blackbeard pirates.

Those individuals appeared as if they were being scrutinized by an otherworldly beast, and fear filled their eyes.

"Shiryu has gone mad!" 

Avalo Pizarro also wore a look of shock. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Shiryu in this state is like a devil.

Burgess and the others had no means to handle Shiryu.

Blackbeard frowned, his face wrinkling, as he witnessed the scene. If Shiryu is allowed to continue the killing spree, the Blackbeard Pirates will have no way to quickly expand their power.

"Ugh!" 

At that moment, Shiryu took action once more, and this time his sword was aimed at the pirates who had sought refuge with them. 

With every move he made, it felt as if a chilling demonic wind swept through.

Let everyone… Everyone's heart becomes extremely frightened!

"We're finished..." 

The pirates whispered in their hearts.

They realized they couldn't block Shiryu in this condition.

Just as Shiryu's sword was about to descend upon several pirates, Blackbeard's figure suddenly materialized in front of them.

"Click!" 

A fist, enveloped in the power of the Tremor Fruit, intercepted Shiryu's descending sword with a single punch.

The sheer force from the clash had already sent the surrounding pirates flying backward. Many were saved from Shiryu's onslaught.

The pirate got up on the ground and wiped the cold sweat from their forehead.

If it weren't for Blackbeard just now, they might have perished under Shiryu's sword.

"That was so frightening!" 

A pirate couldn't help but release a long sigh, yet his face remained pale with fear.

Many people also took a long time to recover. They had truly sensed the scent of death just now!

"Have you had enough?!" 

Blackbeard shouted coldly at Shiryu, wearing a gloomy expression.

His words snapped Shiryu out of his killing trance, bringing him back to reality.

Observing Blackbeard's gloomy expression, Shiryu realized he had come close to death just moments ago.

Realizing the plan had gone awry, he swiftly sheathed his sword and humbly lowered his head before Blackbeard, in front of everyone.

"I Apologize, Captain Blackbeard!"

"Let's head back." 

Blackbeard didn't press further on Shiryu's responsibility. Despite losing control, Shiryu had performed well.

Shiryu obediently returned to his original position, and Blackbeard stood amidst the group of pirates who had intended to join them.

"I'm afraid you've already witnessed Shiryu's strength. Other than him, each of my partners is exceptionally powerful."

"At present, Burgess is the first Titanic captain, Shiryu is the second captain, Van Augur is the third captain, Avalo Pizarro is the fourth captain... Doc Q is the ninth captain, and Gion is the eleventh captain."

Having designated the captain's division for Burgess and the others, he proceeded.

"Next, those who want to join the Blackbeard Pirates will stay and let the captains choose. Those who don't want to join can leave at any time. "

After Blackbeard finished speaking, he cast a glance at each of the pirates present.

Upon hearing his words, he observed that, apart from the now-dead Kidd Alliance, the remaining individuals were indeed eager to join him.

This time, not a single voice of opposition was raised.

"Captain Blackbeard, Gion is the eleventh Titanic captain. Who is the tenth captain?" 

A pirate asked at that moment.

Currently, the Blackbeard Pirates only have a total of ten members, excluding Blackbeard. Why is Gion referred to as the eleventh captain?

This is their doubt.

"There will be someone else to fill the tenth captain."

Blackbeard addressed everyone, and no one raised any questions after hearing his statement.

Even Burgess and the others were unaware of this.

"Weihahaha, boss, you really have great confidence in me. Is there anyone eager to join as my first captain?" 

Burgess laughed and stepped forward, addressing everyone on his own accord.

Due to the first captain's position, even the pirates who had previously looked down on Burgess began to hesitate.

In the pirate world, strength is one aspect, and authority is another. With a formidable leader like Blackbeard, the position of Burgess's first captain became a sought-after opportunity. Many individuals started taking the initiative to join Burgess's team.

Shiryu and the others also started choosing their crew members.

Burgess and Shiryu are in charge of the most pirate groups, with three pirate groups respectively. Some of Avalo Pizarro and Catarina Devon are in charge of one pirate group, and some are in charge of two pirate groups.

Among them, only Momousagi Gion did not select a follower.

Blackbeard also understood that she was not suitable to lead the pirates in this New World.

The crew member recruitment this time can be considered a perfect conclusion, with a total of 18 pirates with bounties over 100 million recruited, bringing the total number of crew members to 5,000.

The size of Blackbeard's Pirates suddenly expanded, marking the official establishment of their presence in the New World!

And he was officially addressed as the Admiral by everyone in the Blackbeard Pirates—Admiral Blackbeard.

"Captain Blackbeard! What should we do with the guy named Apoo?" 

Burgess, who had recently taken charge of three pirate groups with bounties over 100 million, suddenly felt a surge of confidence and became more respectful in front of Blackbeard.

"Burgess, how many times have I told you to address the captain as Admiral Blackbeard!" Lafitte reminded Burgess.

"Weihahaha, mainly because I'm used to called Captain Blackbeard, and 'captain' sounds more approachable." 

Burgess laughed in response.

Blackbeard didn't mind it. To him, it was just a trivial title.

"Bring Apoo here" 

Blackbeard instructed Burgess.
