## One Piece Chapter 441, pages 15-17: Duel on Banaro Island - Chapter: 441 - Pages: 15-17 - Characters: Marshall D. Teach, Portgas D. Ace, Van Augur, Jesus Burgess ### Summary Page 15: Ace coughs blood and Teach laughs, "ZEHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!" He taunts, "IT MUST'VE BEEN A WHILE SINCE YOU WERE LAST PUNCHED...! YOU PROBABLY REALIZED IT AS SOON AS I GRABBED YOU!!!" Ace understands the hidden rule: "MEANING, WHILE I'M TOUCHING HIS BODY, THE DF USER CAN NO LONGER USE HIS ABILITIES!!" Teach confirms the horror of the darkness: "... THE OTHER THING THAT MY 'DARKNESS' CAN SUCK IN IS THE 'DEVIL'S POWER'!!!" Page 16: Teach boasts that he has gained the perfect counter to every overconfident Devil Fruit user: "LOGIA...!! ZOAN... PARAMISIA!!! AGAINST ALL THE DF USERS WHO OVERRATE THEIR OWN ABILITY, I'VE GAINED AN OFFENSIVE ABILITY THAT CAN NEVER BE DEFENDED AGAINST!!!" He uses "KUROUZU" again, promising, "I'LL JUST PROVE TO YOU THAT YOU CAN'T GET AWAY FROM THE GRAVITATION OF THE DARKNESS!!!" Ace answers from range instead: "... ONLY IF I GET CAUGHT." He throws two burning lances with "SHINKA SHIRANUI"!!! The fire arcs toward Teach as the pull of darkness twists the air between them. Page 17: The fire lances stab into Teach, and he cries out, "GUH...!!!!" One of his men panics, "A FLAME SPEAR!?" while another screams, "SHIT!! GWAAAAAH!! HOT!!" Teach is badly wounded but still frightening, and an onlooker notes, "... HE'S GAINED A VERY TROUBLESOME ABILITY." Ace keeps his breathing steady and presses the advantage, while Teach endures the heat and pain that his own darkness amplifies.
