│3rd Person POV│
[Grand Line, New World, Beehive Island…]
At this moment, Izou’s eyes were full of desire and longing.
After all, he doesn't possess Devil Fruit powers.
Before Thatch consumed the Ancient Zoan Type Devil Fruit, Izou was also not interested in eating any Devil Fruit.
As a sniper, he had his own pride, just like a swordsman, and he did not want to compromise his pride by becoming a Devil Fruit user.
However, after the recent battle with Wolf, Izou also understood that his pride was worthless in the face of true strength.
If his own strength was insufficient, he would only perish with his so-called pride and even become a liability to the Whitebeard Pirates.
After all, if the Division Commander isn't formidable enough, how can he instill fear in the enemies and protect his Division members?
Although relying on Whitebeard's name is enough to intimidate most run-of-the-mill pirates, truly strong ones wouldn’t hesitate to become Whitebeard’s enemy, especially now that he was getting old.
One more important thing to keep in mind was that he knew the information about Pure Gold.
All the Division Commanders wanted to go and acquire the Pure Gold Mask for Whitebeard. This would enable Whitebeard to live longer and maybe even regain his peak strength.
However, to do so, his current strength was not enough.
Moreover, with the precedent of Thatch, Izou was inclined to consume a Devil Fruit to increase his strength. And with the possibility of gaining one of the most suitable Devil Fruit for himself, he was very excited and anxious.
"Is that so?"
Teach also raised his eyebrows, and his breathing became a little intense at this moment.
He thought he knew all about the Amp Amp Fruit’s powers and capabilities.
However, after listening to Ron's story, Teach realized that he had blindly believed everything written in the Devil Fruit illustration book to be true.
With Ron’s recent reveal, Teach was willing to give the Amp Amp Fruit the same value he would give to the Tremor Tremor Fruit. It was just that the former lacked the destructive potential of the latter but made it up in terms of granting personal power.
It was just a pity that he hadn't yet found and consumed the Dark Dark Fruit or else…
"Alright, let’s calm down, Izou! Don’t get your hopes up!"
At this time, Izou’s muttering brought Teach back to his senses.
Looking over, he could see that Izou was standing in front of the body of Wolf, and the shotgun in his hand was pointed directly at Wolf’s head.
Taking a deep breath, Izou prayed solemnly, "I hope your Devil Fruit reincarnates among these fruits so that I can consume it!"
The next second, Izou pulled the trigger, and an Armament Haki infused bullet shot out, directly piercing Wolf’s head resulting in his instant death.
Being unconscious and already on the verge of death, Wolf didn’t even twitch after receiving a headshot, dying without even being able to say some last words.
At this moment, Ron, Teach, and Izo were all holding their breaths, staring at the few fruits on the ground with keen eyes.
Especially Teach.
He was also keenly observing the fruit in his arms, wishing it to transform into a Devil Fruit.
However, reality could be cruel sometimes.
They waited for five minutes, even then, there were no changes to the fruits on the ground, including the fruits in Teach's arms.
"Failed? Sigh~ I guess I was not fated to get the Devil Fruit!"
For a moment, Izou’s entire body exuded disappointment.
Not only he but even Teach and Ron were also extremely disappointed at this moment.
After all, acquiring the Amp Amp Fruit would have helped the Whitebeard Pirates immensely. In a short period of time, they could have had another crew member with strength similar to Marco.
Shaking off his disappointment, Ron attempted to cheer up Izou, "Commander Izou, you don't need to be too upset.
"Although we didn't get the Amp Amp Fruit, we already have some excellent Devil Fruits in our warehouse.
"Among them, I think the Paramecia Type; Speed Speed Fruit is the most suitable one for you. If you want to eat it, Pops won’t hesitate to give it to you!”
As soon as Ron finished speaking, Teach also added from the side, "Yeah, Ron’s right! Commander Izou’s contributions over the years are more than enough to exchange for a Devil Fruit.
"Even if you don't like the Devil Fruits in our stock, it doesn't matter. After all, we are at war with the Ochoku Pirates now.
"After annihilating those guys from the Ochoku Pirates, we can raid the Ochoku Pirates' treasure house, which will definitely contain some Devil Fruits.
“Maybe there will also be a powerful Devil Fruit in there.”
Hearing this, Izou's expression improved a little.
Just as Ron and Teach mentioned, even though they didn't acquire this top-tier Amp Amp fruit, they could still obtain excellent Devil Fruits after this war.
There was no need to brood over what had already happened.
Thinking of this, Izou immediately said, "In this case, we shouldn’t waste time here. Ron, you and Teach continue to act together.
"I'm going to help the others to annihilate the senior cadres of the Ochoku Pirates as quickly as possible.
“In this battle, victory must belong to our Whitebeard Pirates."
"Alright!"
"Yes, Commande Izou!"
Hearing this, both Ron and Teach replied in agreement.
After all, this matter was indeed not over yet, and they shouldn’t waste too much time here.
On the battlefield, the number of deaths was rising every minute.
Especially because of the fight between Whitebeard and Ochoku.
At this moment, their fight was very intense, which also caused the shockwave of their clash to spread and cover more areas of the island.
People from both the pirate groups were also getting caught up in their fight from time to time with many of them even dying directly.
"Then I'll take my leave first."
Immediately afterward, Izou turned around and hurried to help his fellow Division Commanders.
As Izou left, Ron and Teach also looked at each other at this moment.
"Ron, who are we going to help next?" Teach asked.
"Let's have a look first!"
In this regard, Ron did not make a decision immediately.
Instead, he jumped up and transformed into a phoenix, flying high into the air, and started surveying the entire battlefield.
After a while, Ron locked onto a particular battle and exclaimed, "That's Commander Fossa! It seems like he is having a hard time."
After successfully locking the target, Ron returned to the ground in a flash and said, "Let's go, Teach. We’re going to support Commander Fossa.
"I just saw that the guy he was fighting against is very strong, and Commander Fossa wouldn’t be able to defeat him.”
"As you say, Ron!"
Hearing this, Teach agreed.
His purpose has been accomplished, so he had no problem lending a hand here and there.
However, he had already decided to let Ron fight from now on and only help him out if it was absolutely necessary.
After all, why should he expose his strength to everyone if such a situation is avoidable?
Having made their decision, Ron and Teach quickly ran towards the area where Fossa was fighting. Along the way, they encountered many members of the Ochoku Pirates.
But with the improvement of Ron’s strength, these guys were no longer a threat to Ron.
With Shunpo combined with the Sword Draw technique, many elite members of the Ochoku Pirates died at his hands.
This also resulted in more people from the Whitebeard Pirates surviving, and Ron's favorability and recognition among them increased rapidly.
"Snow Leopard, you are a really tough guy."
After blocking another one of Snow Leopard's attacks with his sword, Fossa looked a little tired and out of breath.
The most important thing was that the area around him was covered with frost, which directly reduced his range of mobility and inhibited his strength and performance.
