## One Piece Chapter 441, pages 9-11: Duel on Banaro Island - Chapter: 441 - Pages: 9-11 - Characters: Marshall D. Teach, Portgas D. Ace ### Summary Page 9: The people flee through the forest and toward the coast, warning one another, "UWAHH!! SOMETHING'S SPREADING ON THE GROUND!!" "THAT'S THE STUFF THAT GUY WAS EMITTING FROM HIS BODY...!!" "THAT'S SCARY!! IT'S SO BLACK, IT'S JUST LIKE A HOLE IN THE GROUND." "I FEEL LIKE I'M BEING SUCKED IN. CREEPY." "DON'T TOUCH IT!! JUST RUN!!" "GO THROUGH THE FOREST AND RUN TO THE COAST!!" Teach explains the nature of his darkness: "MY 'DARKNESS' IS 'GRAVITATION'!!" and "IT'S A FORCE THAT SUCKS EVERYTHING IN!!! NOT EVEN LIGHT CAN ESCAPE." He says he will not attack Ace yet: "IT'S INFINITE 'GRAVITATION.' IT'S NOT... COMING TOWARDS ME. I WON'T ATTACK YOU JUST YET...!! JUST STAY THERE AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS TO THE TOWN...!!" Page 10: Teach calls the technique "BLACK HOLE"!!! The gravity of "darkness" draws in every object with infinite force and crushes it. Whole buildings tip, splinter, and sink into the blackness while onlookers shout, "WHY!? WHAT'S GOING ON!?" and "BEING SUCKED INTO THE GROUND!" Others stare at the spreading destruction and ask, "... ARE WE DREAMING...?" The town disappears into the dark, leaving Teach to announce, "NOW, I'LL SHOW YOU THE MISSING TOWN... IN ITS RUINED FORM...!!" Page 11: Teach releases everything the darkness swallowed with "LIBERATION"!!! A mountain of shattered houses, beams, roofs, and debris erupts back into the air and crashes down over Banaro Island. People below scream, "THE TOWN HAS BEEN COMPLETELY DESTROYED..." Teach laughs at Ace, "ZEHAHA-HAHA! SEE THAT, ACE!!? THIS IS THE ABILITY I'VE OBTAINED!!!" The ruined town becomes proof that his darkness can swallow matter and then vomit it back out in devastation.
