Trivia[]
Description[]
Two overweighted, greedy, power-hungry, and cunning villainous pirate captains whom takes power, cunning, and ruthlessness to rule the sea. In their quest for treasure they have the strength to fight their nemesis, and they both crazily laugh almost the same. Furthermore they both were originally different pirate crew until something separated from their original teams and made their own (The Kremlings Krew and Blackbeard Pirates respectively), and both seek to conquer the world and are the major antagonists towards the protagonists. Both have claws and arsenals of weapons and possesses supernatural powers.
Interlude[]
Wiz: Piracy is an act of robbery of treasures and attacking another ships, we often see pirates in their ship.
Boomstick: Some can still have their two eyes rather than one eye.
Wiz: They can be powerful pirate beings, like Blackbeard, one of overweight One Pieces’ four emperor pirate.
Boomstick: And King K. Rool, the overweight pirate rival of the Donkey Kong. He’s Wiz and I’m Boomstick!
Wiz: And it’s our job to analyze their weapons, armour, and skill to find out who would win a… Death Battle.
Blackbeard[]
Wiz: Marshall D. Teach started his pirate career out as member as Whitebeard’s second division, he was a loyal of Whitebeard and his crew mates until he killed Thatch and stole a devil fruit. Making Ace angry and want to avenge Thatch.
Boomstick: So he killed a guy just to steal devil fruit? That’s when he decide to be called Blackbeard!
Wiz: Blackbeard became the admiral of the Blackbeard pirates, making him one of the most feared and wanted pirates.
Boomstick: He is like 11 feet tall, this guy’s huge! And he wields the power of two devil fruits!
Wiz: With that dark fruit he is already powerful, that thing can summon a dark aura around him. He can physically hit Ace who’s body is made out of a fire.
Boomstick: He wields not only Dark Fruit, but Tremor Fruit that can cause Earthquake and easily destroy buildings and shatter the air!
Wiz: He can do that with a punching fist with the power of an air shattering Earthquake, and he once survived the punches from a original owner of the Tremor Fruit.
Boomstick: He seems to be have knowledge on his fruits, look like he studied well. Also, he have a equipment: Iron Claws and Flintlock Pistols, though he always keep three of them.
Wiz: With his dark power he can create a black hole, black ball, giant dark tornado, and others to use them to attack opponents to show how strong and powerful he is.
Boomstick: He is a psychopath that for sure.
Wiz: He is strong enough to survive and fight against Ace, Whitebeard, and Luffy, injuring them as well. But luckily for his foes, he can get distracted while in mid fight.
Boomstick: One of his power fruits can leave him vulnerable to attacks, lowering their defenses. Why does every villains with possessing a cool powers have a weakness?
Wiz: I guess that’s the way it is, anyway when he didn’t have his fruit powers, Blackbeard relies only on his power including his Strength. He can have his pistols.
Boomstick: Blackbeard is one of the most wanted and feared pirates in the world and there’s a reasons why!
Blackbeard: Now, nobody is a match for me!
King K. Rool[]
Wiz: Donkey Kong, originally Mario’s first appearance’s villain and now a redeemed character. They both used to rival themselves until their true nemesis come in.
Boomstick: Mario is now always rivalry to Bowser, and Donkey Kong is currently rivalry to anthropomorphic crocodile and the main antagonist to his franchise, who we are currently analyzing, is known as King K. Rool!
Wiz: He is the malevolent king of the Kremlings, the archenemy of Donkey Kong and his allies or islands. He repeatedly attempt to steal Donkey Kong’s bananas and it was suggested that it was to let them starve.
Boomstick: Well being starve to death is a worst thing that can happen to animals, the Kremlings likes the bananas. Couldn’t they share? Share is caring, be kind to everyone kids!
Wiz: Well Donkey Kong wouldn’t agree on conquering the world with his nemesis, doing evil stuffs are not caring.
Boomstick: Well at least Donkey Kong would agree on kidnapping Princess Peach, he did that before Bowser.
Wiz: He is said to be rival of Donkey Kong’s Strength, which he once hit a moon down.
Boomstick: Wow that’s impressive, his ground pounds can shake the ground and causes a earthquake! Not to mention, creating a shockwave.
Wiz: His cannon gun, known as Blunderbuss, can carry a unlimited amount of ammos or stuffs. It can includes shooting a pineapples, spike balls, gas clouds, fire, and even a barrels. He has a gun known as Klaptrap Blunderbuss, which is not really a “Blunderbuss”, it can eat anything strong like metals.
Boomstick: So if he shoot it at his nemesis then it’s all game over?
Wiz: Logically. He also carries a punching gloves, each punches are already powerful, and one can be used as a boomerang.
Boomstick: He have a good athletic skill to climb almost faster than Donkey Kong, the ape that once punch a moon down!
Wiz: He has ability to be invincible, and of course hurting his opponents easily. He can also teleport, but can not teleport from very long distance but short distance.
Boomstick: There’s a thing called Crystal Banana, which can transform him giant. It granted him special abilities like breathing fire, creating lightning, summoning meteors, changing the direction of the wind, etc.
Wiz: Though the problem is he can easily be knock out if his head is hit, if he makes a mistake of throwing his crown like a boomerang.
Boomstick: It would take more than apes to take down the king!
King K. Rool: It’s time to go to the battlefield. Let’s show Donkey Kong who rules!
Pre Death Battle[]
Wiz: Alright, the combatants are set. Let’s end this debate once and for all!
Boomstick: It’s time for a DEATH BATTLEEEE!
Death Battle[]
King K. Rool decided to go to steal Kong’s bananas with his Kremlings Krew, he put his foot on the island and turn his back to order his crew to steal a bananas.
King K. Rool: We’re here now! Let’s—
Blackbeard: It seems like you’re too late, buddy!
King K. Rool: What?
Rool in shock turn around to see Blackbeard and his pirates crew, Rool decided to ask.
King K. Rool: Who the heck are you?
Blackbeard: It’s Blackbeard, and it’s best if you go before you regret it!
King K. Rool: I was going to say the same thing to you! Get out of here before me and my crew show you who’s the boss!
Blackbeard: A fight it is! Let’s do this!
King K. Rool and Blackbeard ordering their crews, before they charge to fight, they shouted: ”Attack!” and they both went claw to claw. Their crews attack as their captains do the same, Blackbeard punches King K. Rool and Rool head butt Blackbeard away before he pull out his Blunderbuss and start shooting at Blackbeard. It reflect off of Blackbeard and both combatants went to fight hand-to-hand, throwing punches to each other, Blackbeard then push away King K. Rool. They went to fight and claw each other chest, Blackbeard punches Rool and push him into his ship, King K. Rool dodged his incoming claw attack and hit his stomach. Blackbeard back slap King K. Rool, as he laughs, King K. Rool pull out his Blunderbuss again and shoot the cannons again, when Blackbeard knock it over by his side, Rool sucks him into his gun and throw him into the wall. Blackbeard charges and tackles King K. Rool, and punches Rool and keep on hitting him until Rool hits Blackbeard’s nose. King K. Rool then “Hulk smashed” him, and knocking him over by his belly, Blackbeard fell off of Rool’s ship. Then Blackbeard came out, and shoots Rool with his pistol, Rool fell off of ship. Blackbeard laughs, thinking it’s over, as he get out of Rool’s ship he heard the rumbling in the ocean. King K. Rool turned into a giant and came out of a ocean.
King K. Rool: Raahahaha, you thought your silly little pistol could actually kill me? You really don’t know me. Look, you either get out of this island or just die. Come on, don’t make me spit bloods over this island.
Blackbeard: No, I wanna see you prove that if you are really a best pirate in the world!
King K. Rool: Very well.
King K. Rool spits a mine at Blackbeard who dodged out of the way every time, and summons meteors on him who dodged. Then Blackbeard’s dark aura begins forming. Giant King K. Rool tries to “Hulk Smash” Blackbeard but he swiftly dodged, King K. Rool also breathes fire on Blackbeard but it didn’t work. Blackbeard’s dark power begins to take over almost all of the island, surprising King K. Rool, Blackbeard throws “Liberation” at Rool as he say the word, King K. Rool then slap Blackbeard at the tree and breathes fire directly at Blackbeard. But his fire doesn’t seem to be working against his opponents, Blackbeard grins and put his hand in the black ground and say ”Black Hole.” The black hole trying to sink down King K. Rool, as well as his troops. King K. Rool tries to grab Blackbeard but he punches it away but was unsuccessful, Rool grabs Blackbeard and tries to crush him, but Blackbeard push his hand away and leaps to Earthquake punch at Rool’s face multiple times and he crushed Rool’s skull, King K. Rool fell to the black hole and was killed.
Blackbeard got back on the ground and smiles.
Blackbeard: Now it’s time to conquer and have some bananas, boys! Who likes to eat bananas?
Result[]
Boomstick: Ouch, that one gotta hurt.
Wiz: King K. Rool was a incredible foe and match for Blackbeard but eventually he would fell to Blackbeard’s Strength, Power, Skill, and Durability.
Boomstick: Yeah I don’t think King K. Rool’s fire would work on Blackbeard, even in his giant form since he doesn’t seem to get affect by fire. Besides his dark power would beat Rool, especially the black hole.
Wiz: Rool has more attacks to throw at Blackbeard, but he had what it take to surpass them. Also, it’s true that Rool can stand against Donkey Kong who punched down the small moon but Blackbeard destroyed buildings and surprise the attacks like Ace, Whitebeard, the original owner of the Tremor Fruit, and can cause a Earthquakes with a punch.
Boomstick: Black ball, dark tornadoes, and black hole can pretty sure beat Rool since he has a flaws and get defeat by Donkey Kong.
Wiz: While Rool was a good match for Blackbeard, he couldn’t have match his power, strength, and his durability to fire.
Advantages: Blackbeard winner
- Stronger
- Durable
- Has impressive power
- Can cause a earthquake with a punch
- Almost unaffected to fire
- Fought more powerful characters
Disadvantages: King K. Rool loser
- More attacks even in giant form but get defeat by Donkey Kong and others who dodged his attacks
- His fire almost wouldn’t work against Blackbeard
- Will fall to Blackbeard’s powers
Boomstick: King K. Rool blacked out to Blackbeard’s black hole power, it was “roolish” to try to mess with Blackbeard.

Description[]
Nintendo VS Shueisha! On the Seven Seas, it's a pirate's life for me. That is, until these two show up on ye deck! Who will win between Donkey Kong Country's crocodilian conqueror and One Piece's antagonistic admiral?
Interlude[]
(Cue Wiz & Boomstick)
Boomstick: Wiz, be honest with me here. You've definitely thought about becoming a pirate at some point, right? Because I mean, who hasn't! Some people are even pirates in the modern day, but... we won't go into that right now.
Wiz: Are you, hiding something from me? Oh well, these two combatants of the sea definitely have nothing to hide. They smile through all their evil deeds, showing off their teeth and the malicious intent behind their gazes with nothing short of absolute pride.
Boomstick: King K. Rool, the king of the Kremlings from the Donkey Kong Country series.
Wiz: And Marshall D. Teach, better known as Captain Blackbeard from One Piece.
Boomstick: He's Wiz, and I'm Boomstick!
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win... a DEATH BATTLE!
King K. Rool Rules Cruel in DEATH BATTLE![]
(Cue Donkey Kong Country Theme)
Wiz: Donkey Kong Island. You would think this place of lush beauty, with a kind race of apes and just the most delicious fruit you've ever laid your eyes upon would be an absolute paradise.
(The music scratches to a halt, as King K. Rool appears on the monitor)
Boomstick: Well-hell, think again! Because behind this cute video game façade lies truly one of the most evil villains in Nintendo's catalogue. King K. Rool, vicious tyrannical ruler of the Kremlings and the arch-nemesis of the big DK himself!
(Cue Crocodile Cacophony)
Wiz: Though he is definitely known as the big bad of the entire Donkey Kong series, he wasn't always... well, a king. At one time, K. Rool was just a pirate serving in the crew of the Kremling Kuthroats.
Boomstick: However, when the crew came under fire during the infamous Kremean War, K. Rool just up and left them, leaving his crewmates to die like a game of Among Us... but if it was in Florida!
Wiz: Sailing his dead crew's ship to a distant island, Krem Quay, the pirate deserter built his kingdom from the ground up, establishing a monarchy with him as the sole king of, well, absolutely everything.
Boomstick: However, just like every monarch too stuck up their own ass, this Krocodilian King grew unhappy with just ruling a single island. So, why not expand out into the world! Which is exactly how he come across Donkey Kong Island.
Wiz: To further agitate the Kongs, K. Rool stole the legendary banana horde from the great ape himself, setting off an adventure which would kick-start an entire franchise of constant conflicts between the Kongs and the Kremlings.
Boomstick: And, as you would probably expect of a king of his kaliber, this guy's got the equipment to pull off such a stunt too!
(Cue Gang-Plank Galleon)
Boomstick: He's got your standard pirate stuff, y'know, cannonballs (named "Kannonballs" for dramatic effect!), pirate ships, all that fun stuff. But he's also a fuckin' genius! No literally, apparently he has some Mario in him, 'cuz this guy just became a scientist out of nowhere! Heh, guess DK really has a knack for getting into beef with people who have PhDs.
Wiz: Whether it be things to watch you explode from afar or get up close and personal, K. Rool has quite the repertoire. He's also got his boxing gloves, which can be used as boomerangs of sorts. On the subject of gloves, under the previously mentioned mad scientist get-up, something which I admire, which is appropriately named Baron K. Roolenstein, K. Rool also has gloves which are electrically charged.
Boomstick: These bad boys can fire entire beams of electrical energy at any dastardly ape who dares stand in his way! He also has a remote to control his lair but, he can't bring you there. So good luck with that, you Kruel bastard.
Wiz: King K. Rool is also capable of using a helicopter pack strapped to his back, which can help him fly around. Try adding this with his Blunderbass' thruster function, and he can basically achieve a primitive form of fully fledged flight.
Boomstick: Speaking of the Blunderbass! It can fire those Kannonballs mentioned earlier, and also spiked variations of 'em! Additionally, it can also launch out a strange mist, which can freeze and slow a target down. Or, he can do the exact opposite, and instead of blowing people, he can suck them in like a vacuum!- Wait, that came out wrong...
Wiz: King K. Rool's other greatest weapon though, the one he always has on hand, is his royal majesty.
Boomstick: Uhhh, well yeah Wiz, every king obviously has to have the intimidation factor to get an upper hand on their opponents.
Wiz: No, no, I mean... K. Rool literally uses his royalty as a weapon. He tosses his crown around like a boomerang. It isn't practical, but it works.
Boomstick: Huh... neat!
(Cue King K. Rool's DK64 Theme)
Wiz: Though, being the Krocodilian Kreature he is, K. Rool is nothing if not for his sheer brute strength and survivability.
Boomstick: Yeah, this dude's tough enough to tank the entire upper half of an island exploding on top of him! Which I guess is only heightened since that golden-plated stomach of his is extra-defensive!
Wiz: Speaking of his, well, more rotund size, the Kong's worst enemy is able to use this size to his advantage by bouncing around and causing massive shockwaves to extend off of his body. Though, despite this, K. Rool is incredibly sneaky. He's managed to break in and steal the banana horde more times than you can really count on a single hand.
Boomstick: Though, the guy can both turn invisible and teleport so, it isn't that big of an issue to see why. However, the invisibility does leave a distinct shadow on the ground, allowing him to be easily spotted with a good eye.
Wiz: Fair point, Boomstick. Though, when he needs to rough something up personally, he's got his boxing alter ego to do that for him - King Krusha K. Rool!
-Posted by the King Keith Rool Fanclub
Boomstick: While in this persona, K. Rool is an absolute showboater, complete with a mean-ass uppercut and a jump that quakes the very earth which each leap. Talk about putting your weight into it!
(Cue Down to the Bottom of the Sea)
Wiz: As Krusha K. Rool, he was capable of fighting against multiple Kongs at once. Which is impressive, seeing as Diddy roughly scales to Dixie, who was capable of dodging Baron K. Roolenstein's electrical blasts. He's also regularly battled the Kongs throughout the years, as true evil never tires... especially when you've gotta steal bananas?
Boomstick: Though perhaps his most impressive showing is in his bouts with Donkey Kong, the main character of the series. This is the same ape who could punch so fast and so hard that the air ignited from his punches, and could punch down the entire moon from orbit!
Wiz: K. Rool is also surprisingly adept at planning, even if his more... shall we say, "lower showings" of intelligence may say otherwise. He's even nearly gotten away with it at several points too, if it just weren't for the Kongs' will to keep on fighting the good fight against his tyrannical rule.
Boomstick: It's this very intelligence that led him to creating one of two of his greatest weapons! The Blast-o-Matic! This Kremling statue with a golden head is powered by an energy core, which is in turn connected to five separate rooms. You wanna take a crack at what it does? That's right, you guessed it! It fires out a giant laser, capable of nuking entire islands! It's like the Death Star, but slightly more grounded.
Wiz: Though, his other greatest weapon came when he finally wanted to stop playing around. It wasn't just about ruling DK Island anymore, this time it was personal. K. Rool wanted to rule-
DIO: THE WOOOOORRRRRRLLLLLLLDDDDDDDDDDD!-
Wiz and Boomstick: NO!
*Wiz slams the analysis board to the side, causing the DIO clip to be sent flying away.*
Wiz: sigh... Yes, K. Rool now had his sights set on ruling the entire world. And to do this, he took the Crystal Bananas, five giant shimmering bananas made by the Xananab.
Boomstick: ...They're alien, humanoid bananas. What the hell has this series become? Well regardless, these ancient bananaliens, that's what I'm choosing to call them, were old friends of the Kong species, so our good pals Donkey and Diddy felt it right to help out. This lead to them going all over the place in search for these things, kinda like the dollar store versions of Chaos Emeralds if you think about it.
Wiz: And in the final confrontation, K. Rool ended up eating one of the bananas. This turned him into a veritable god, at least relatively speaking. He grew to monstrous sizes, and gained the ability to breathe fire and summon meteorites from the sky.
Boomstick: This, "Super K. Rool" can also create storms and is generally just even tougher to be put down. But, logic be damned, DK still just punched the shit out of him and beat him!
Wiz: This perhaps leads us to K. Rool's most major downfall. His general lack of Kompetence, at least most of the time.
(Cue Donkey Kong Country Returns Theme)
Boomstick: Yeahhhhh, despite all he's Kracked up to be with all of his gadgets and power, this King of Kremlings isn't so unbeatable. The Kongs have bested him on numerous occasions, mostly just due to his own ego. Yeah, uh, being alone on a remote island for god knows how many years will do that to you.
Wiz: King K. Rool's other biggest weakness is, ironically enough, found within his own name. He rules his people, not by setting a good example, but by sheer cruelty. A rule by the cruel. As such, even his own people are scared of him to a degree.
Boomstick: Damn! That's one way to start coup!
Wiz: However, make no mistake, wherever there is trouble for the Kongs, the mighty King K. Rool shall not be far behind. There is nothing you can do to escape from his terror, so you might as well weep as he takes everything away from you. Truly, his Finest Hour.
Boomstick: ...Wiz, I think you're going a bit too deep for a stupid crocodile who loses to roided out apes..
Wiz: He can break the fourth-wall too-
Boomstick: WAIT WHAT-
*The "Fake Kredits" scene from Donkey Kong Country plays, as the credits scroll past the screen. However, all the "C"s replaced with "K", and the staff team members are different Kremlings. The screen pans over to King K. Rool, as he jumps back up!*
King K. Rool: Hehahaehaha!
Marshall Teach Sends Tremors Through DEATH BATTLE![]
(Cue Overtaken)
Wiz: Picture this: You're on a ship out at sea, transporting goods from a prominent government station to a local town. However, that's when a noise catches your attention. Someone is yelling...
Boomstick: "Pirates! Pirates!" Yeah uh, you can guess what happens next. Your ship gets raided, and drained of all your belongings! Hell, sometimes you'd be lucky just to make it out with your life.
Wiz: The world of One Piece is heavily based around this idea, the nature of pirates and how they interact with the world. From your rookie pirates, to even the more well-renowned ones, they all have a purpose in the grand story of One Piece.
Boomstick: And our combatant today sure does stick with that like it's a ship full of priceless gold and booze! You might could even say he's the most historically accurately-portrayed pirate in the entire series: everyone, the Captain of the Blackbeard Pirates, Marshall D. Teach! Though, you can just call him Blackbeard.
(Cue To the Grand Line)
Wiz: Not much is known about Marshall's backstory, however, from the little we do know about him, he certainly isn't the same as his real life counterpart.
Boomstick: Ol' Marshy was one of the newest members on the crew of the Whitebeard Pirates. Which, y'know, is genuinely impressive because the Whitebeard Pirates were a very big deal, to say the least.
Wiz: Widely revered as one of the strongest and most deadly pirates around, the fortune and fame that came with even just being near them was enough to intoxicate someone. And for Teach, it was perhaps this feeling which started his journey down the path of the pirate, living with the crew as their apprentice.
Boomstick: But, like with all of these classic apprentice/master stories, the apprentice grew a bit too big for his own pants. Literally, in this case. I mean, have you seen how HUGE this guy is? Anyways, after being promoted to the 2nd Division within the crew, he murdered the commander of the 4th Division, and stole his Devil Fruit. We'll come back to that later.
Wiz: Because of this, Teach fled the crew out of fear of Captain Whitebeard's wrath, but despite the glory that came with the position, perhaps liberating himself from the restraints of being a Whitebeard Pirate was what set forth his rise to power. After engaging in battle with the sibling of a certain stretchy-armed boy, turning him into the Marines, briefly becoming what is essentially the "Pirate FBI", he was finally left to his own devices.
Boomstick: But, a pirate is nothing without the tools to... you know, pirate things with. So, why not indulge? Multiple claw-like glove blades which look like they came straight out of a Wolverine comic, and THREE flintlock pistols! I can respect a guy who loves his guns.
Wiz: Though in the world of One Piece, some pirates have gone far beyond what their real life equivalents were capable of doing. Almost like taking a legend you'd hear floating around back in those days, some pirates have special powers offered to them à la Devil Fruits. Teach - or as he was known from henceforth, "Blackbeard" - is the only known pirate to have two Devil Fruits.
Boomstick: The first of his Devil Fruits and the one he ended up stealing from Thatch back in the good ol' days of being a Whitebeard Pirate is the Yami Yami no Mi.
Wiz: Translating into English as "Dark-Dark Fruit", this Devil Fruit is a Logia type, and allows Blackbeard to create vortexes with very similar properties to black holes.
(Cue Desperate Situation)
Wiz: He can create, control, and meld darkness to his will. The most common usage of this ability is through a technique which Blackbeard calls "Black Hole".
Boomstick: As the name may imply, pretty much if Blackbeard sees anything he doesn't wanna deal with anymore, he can just suck a target into a sea of darkness. Here, they will be removed into another dimension and crushed into oblivion! Damn!
Wiz: Additionally, when he wants to let out a release of the matter that's crushed within the dimension, he can "Liberate" it and send it out as projectile attacks. There is also "Kurouzu", which acts as a gravity well which can propel people and objects towards him.
Boomstick: As for his other Devil Fruit, he acquired it after finally getting one back over on his old captain. After killing Whitebeard, Blackbeard stole yet another Fruit, and gained the powers of the Gura Gura no Mi.
Wiz: Translating to "Tremor-Tremor Fruit", this Devil Fruit is a Paramecia type, which means that Blackbeard is able to achieve supernatural feats thanks to it. He can send shockwaves into the air with it and bypass said shockwaves through objects.
Boomstick: He doesn't just send out shockwaves through the air. No, he CRACKS THAT SHIT! Literally, by swinging his arms to the sides, he can summon cracks in anything, including that of pure ass air. It was even strong enough to shake the entire Earth on a Magnitude 6 scale! How does this work, you may be asking yourself? Welcome to One Piece!
Wiz: This "Kaishin" technique allows him to rupture practically anything this power comes into contact with from the inside-out. Alternatively, he can also use this to create tsunamis and such if used on the sea.
Boomstick: He can also grab the air with "Shima Yurashi", and like some sort of toon force literally PULL the air! This allows for a form of pseudo-telekinesis, and it's strong enough to hold up entire islands!
Wiz: Truth be told, though, Devil Fruits aren't the only special powers the people in this world of pirates posses. Several characters have mastered something called "Haki", and Blackbeard is no different. His specialty is Armament Haki, but he can also use Observation Haki at a more basic level of mastery.
Boomstick: With Armament Haki, Teach can reinforce his body with an armor of sorts than can strengthen it while also boosting defense and attack power.
Wiz: Because of Blackbeard's level of mastery over Armament Haki, he can also imbue this "armor" into other objects, in addition to being able to nullify other Devil Fruit powers. Although, he also possesses Observation Haki as previously mentioned. With his level of mastery over it, he can pretty much sense the emotions of others, predict and react to attacks before they're even thrown out, and even read minds.
Boomstick: To make matters even worse - or, rather worse for his enemies - Marshy can also extend this level of effective precognition for entire kilometers! All this is neat and all, but this would be useless if the big guy didn't have the means to back it up. And he certainly does!
(Cue Blackbeard's Theme)
Wiz: As a high-ranking Admiral, befitting of his stature as someone who runs an entire armada of pirates on his own, Marshall's power far eclipses the likes of those lesser than him. He's even frightened Rayleigh into being convinced that they could not overcome him.
Boomstick: Why is this a big deal, you ask? Because, Rayleigh is Luffy's mentor, and even held off someone who beat him down! Luffy himself is capable of dodging light-based attacks from this weird robot-bear guy, and did so casually! Blackbeard is also superior to other main characters, like Zoro and Sanji, the former of whom sliced up a meteor carrying an energy of over 12 gigatons of TNT and the latter who is considered the speedster of the main crew, even faster than Luffy!
Wiz: Although, Marshall is far from infallible. Because of his Devil Fruit powers, he is left unable to swim.
Boomstick: Yeaahhhhh, he'll sink like a stone if he lands in any kind of water, which is kinda hilarious when you consider practically 94% of One Piece's story takes place on the waves.
Wiz: The Yami Yami's Kurouzu ability is also a double-edged sword, as it can inadvertently cause his opponents attacks to hit him. He's also incredibly arrogant and haughty, tending to sell himself way above his league, while also downplaying his opponents.
Boomstick: But, to be completely fair to him though, what person in their right mind would even want to challenge him? He's quite possibly one of the most powerful people in all of the seas, after all!
Wiz: Look out, if you see a ship sailing towards you flying the black flag of three crossbones and hear that distinctive laugh over the harbor, brace yourself. Because you may just be experiencing the last few moments of your life.
Blackbeard: Have you got the wrong idea about pirates?! Nobody said we were all the best of friends here!!! The only thing pirates need is an alignment of interests!!
Pre-DEATH BATTLE![]
Wiz: Alright, the combatants are set, and we've run the data through all possibilities.
Boomstick: IT'S TIME FOR A DEATH BATTTTTTTTLLLLEEEE!!!!
(Please, do place your roots and bets in the poll.... right here!)
DEATH BATTLE![]
(Cue Shadow of the Deep - Brandon Yates)
Cannon fire blasted. Deafening booms sent tremors through the wooden ships which were currently battling.
The Kremlings were having a scuffle with the Blackbeard Pirates, the two crews having gotten into a confrontation as the crocodilian critters were heading to take over Donkey Kong Island once again. Ships sunk left and right, though the two large flagships still remained, the ships in which the two captains commanded their troops from.
King K. Rool, the ruler of the Kremlings looked out at the carnage happening over the waves, readying his Blunderbass and slipping his pirate hat over his crown. The king snapped his jaws, as he yelled out among the war-filled seas.
King K. Rool: TAKE NO SURVIVORS! THESE PIRATES WILL KNOW NOT TO MESS WITH THE KREMLING KREW!
However, that's when he noticed a blur leap off of the distant pirate ship, before landing behind him not long after. The Gangplank Galleon rocked, as the opposing force landed. With a growl of irritation, K. Rool turned to face the opposing pirate captain.
A large man with jewelry and decorative pirate attire rose up before him, having taken a superhero landing to brace for impact on the ship. Three flintlock pistols sat at the ready, strapped around his belt. He loomed over K. Rool, looking down at him and giving a toothy smile, exposing his poor hygiene to the light of day. Marshall D. Teach, better known as Blackbeard, had made his debut.
Blackbeard: Your challenge intrigues me! But you call yourself both a king and a pirate, I cannot overlook such an idiotic claim! There is only room enough for one ruler around here....
Blackbeard then enters a readied stance, preparing to engage with K. Rool.
Blackbeard: Me.
However, King K. Rool merely laughs at this, aiming his Blunderbass ahead and locking himself on-target.
King K. Rool: Pretty soon, that little smile of yours is gonna be wiped off the face of the map!
Blackbeard: ZEHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA! Very well, then! Come at me then, ye scallywag! Prove you've got some backbone in ya!
FIGHT![]
(Cue Shadow of the Deep [At 0:17)
K. Rool started things off by firing a few Kannonballs from his Blunderbass. The solid spherical steel masses launched towards the Pirate Admiral, however Blackbeard pulled out two of his flintlock pistols. He let out a chortle, as he began blasting at the Kannonballs.
The two projectile attacks, shockingly, canceled each other out; an unexpected result due to the size difference between the two types of ammunition. Explosions from the metal colliding with one another sent shockwaves across the Gangplank Galleon, as Blackbeard closed in while still keeping K. Rool under fire.
However, the Kremling Kaptain would merely sneak a toothy grin over his face, as he held his Blunderbass back. Flames launched from the opening, as King K. Rool propelled himself forward, strafing out of the path of the bullets as he closed the distance. Once he got close enough, he slammed the large barrel of his gun into Blackbeard's gut, before following this up by decking Marshall straight across the face with a mean left hook.
Teach stumbled back from this, however he leapt back in, shaking the ground as he landed back on the ground. Having holstered back his flintlocks during the leap forward, the Pirate Admiral slammed his arms inward. Grabbing K. Rool by his crocodilian shoulders, Blackbeard laughed once more as he leapt into the sky with the Kremling King.
Blackbeard: ZEHAHAHAHAHA! YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO TRY A LOT HARDER THAN THAT!
The Admiral of the Blackbeard Pirates then piledrove K. Rool back onto his own ship, though he was stopped when King K. Rool had placed his feet on Marshall's midsection as they connected to the ground. Teach's eyes widened slightly, as he looked down at the Krocodilian Kaptain.
King K. Rool: ...You blabbering buccaneer, NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE GREAT KING K. ROOL!
Kaptain K. Rool placed the Blunderbass directly onto Marshall D. Teach's body, before firing a Kannonball. This caused the Pirate Admiral to spit out saliva, as the sphere embedded itself into his gut.
This sent him flying up, breaking the sound barrier as he collided with the ship's mast. The impact point fractured, as the entire thing leaned over and fell to the side. It crashed into the waves, destroying the starboard bow as it collided with the ship. Blackbeard landed on the helm deck, growling slightly as he rubbed his head.
K. Rool rose back to his feet, as he called in his helicopter pack. It attached to his back, as he took to the skies. He looked down at where Marshall had landed, but to his displeasure, he didn't see the Admiral there.
King K. Rool: Grrrr, come back here and fight me you feral fool- !?
K. Rool's eyes widened, when all of a sudden he was met with a sight that shocked him. Blackbeard had leapt into the air, firing down one of his flintlock pistols towards the King Krocodile.
The Kremling swiftly flew out of the path of the bullet, before aiming up and rapid firing out the spiked variations of the Kannonballs. Blackbeard would, however, smirk as he propelled himself back towards the ground, seeming to grab at the air around him in order to do so. Clearing himself out of the path of the spikey spheres, Teach would outstretch his right arm, his hand pointing towards the sky at the flying K. Rool. What appeared to be some strange black mist covered said arm, with K. Rool looking down in confusion.
Blackbeard: You're good, crocodile! But let's see how you deal with this! Kurouzu!
King K. Rool: Kurou-what now?- !?
Instantly, the blackness began to activate some sort of vortex, beginning to pull King K. Rool downwards to the Pirate Admiral. The Kremling's Kaptain grimaced, what was happening having been lost on him. Regardless, in an attempt to escape, he pointed down his Blunderbass and launched flames out of the end.
However, the flames only coalesced around them like some sort of flaming tornado, the entire hull of the Gangplank Galleon beginning to be burnt to cinders. Though, this gave K. Rool an idea. A very bad, no good idea...
King K. Rool: Hmph! Alright, you ill-advised ignoramus! You want to suck so bad? THEN SUCK THIS!
Blasting down several Kannonballs, K. Rool thought he had Blackbeard right where he wanted him, but the Admiral of the Blackbeard Pirates would soon prove him wrong. Marshall was waiting for something like this, so in an instant, he stopped the Kurouzu vortex, and grabbed hold of the first Kannonball with his bare hands.
Swinging his body around rapidly, he then lugged it up towards the second incoming Kannonball, causing an ignition in the air and a debris cloud to form, obstructing Teach from Rool's vision. The king tried to get a good lock-on to Marshall, but the ex-apprentice was too tough to spot through the smokescreen.
However, that's when Teach launched out of said smoke screen, and his left hand he carried the third Kannonball which was launched down at him.
Blackbeard: You're the 'ignoramus' around here, you big lug!!
K. Rool had no time to react, before Blackbeard was already on him. Marshall shoved the Kannonball directly in the fiendish Kremling's face, causing his snout to turn inwards in a cartoonish manner. His face squished to the side, as his tongue loosely flopped about the outside of his mouth with saliva following not long after. This sent K. Rool smashing back down into the ship, sending him into a roll in which his pirate get-up was torn off of him.
Now in just his normal king outfit, he rose back to his feet. Though now his eyes were bloodshot, likely from sheer anger at the man who had just dared reverse the insulting game back around.
King K. Rool: I'll rip you limb from limb! GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!
The Kruel King Krocodile barreled forward, using his arms as extra power to propel himself at the Pirate Admiral who had just now landed back on the ground as well. However, D. Teach met K. Rool's advances with another round of hearty laughter, before dashing in himself.
Blackbeard: ZEHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's the spirit, put your entire soul into everything you do! That, THAT is the PIRATE'S WAY OF LIFE!
K. Rool leapt in, still letting out a warcry as he slung his right fist forward.
Blackbeard met K. Rool on equal terms and did the same, also with his right.
Though, instead of clashing with one another, their punches instead passed by one another. Both of their eyes widened in surprise, as their punches connected with one another's faces. What followed was a massive sonic boom, before a shockwave sent the two pirates flying away from each other in opposing directions. Blackbeard slammed into the Kaptain's Kuarters, while K. Rool was launched off the front of the ship and into the sea.
Marshall Teach was the first to recollect himself seemingly, groaning groggily as he rose himself out of the destroyed quarters of the ship. He put his hand to his mouth, before shaking his head and spitting a tooth which had gotten dislodged in their punch exchange on the wooden boards of the Gangplank Galleon.
Blackbeard stepped out of the cabin, blood running down his face as yet another tooth was missing from his already holey mouth. Though, Teach wasn't irritated by this, no, in fact he kind of enjoyed it. He looked out over the ship, stretching his limbs out.
Blackbeard: Ze, hahahah.... You are good, Kremling. But still no match for the likes of me! Now come out of hiding so we may continue our exchanging of 'kind words'!
That's when Marshall felt a tap on his shoulder behind him.
Blackbeard: Gyeh?-
King K. Rool: Watch your blind spot, you nautical nincompoop!
Blackbeard was instantly knocked back, being met with the Kremling King who had teleported behind him and said king's fist. The Pirate Admiral dug his feet into the ground, sliding back and stopping himself from flying off the side of the ship. Though, K. Rool didn't let up on him, and once more charged in for a ram attack.
Marshall D. Teach growled, before yelling as he held out his arms and caught K. Rool's head, grabbing the croc by the snout. Digging his feet even further into the ground, Blackbeard cackled as he kneed K. Rool's gut.
Though to his surprise, this didn't do much harm to the Kremling Kaptain, his knee bouncing off the gold-plated, almost armor-like tissue. This only allowed for King K. Rool to bear into his assault even more, clawing Teach's body wildly as he tried to fend him off.
The Admiral of the Blackbeard Pirates would, eventually, break from this assault though, twisting his body around to throw K. Rool further back onto the ship. Additionally, the claw swipes from the previous flurry of attacks gave him an idea.
K. Rool stood back up to his feet, walking towards Teach who now donned strange clawed gauntlets.
Blackbeard: Zehahaha, no one's made me use these in quite a while! Congratulations, you'll die with the satisfaction!
Marshall cackled as he rushed in towards K. Rool, with the two of them now meeting each other head on once more. They both exchanged a constant back-and-forth barrage of claw swipes and stabs, looking to butcher the other into oblivion. Back and forth they went, until K. Rool ducked under one of the swipes from Blackbeard's claws, then shoulder-ramming him in the gut.
This caused D. Teach to be sent back, as K. Rool reached up to his noggin and threw forth his crown, which knocked into Blackbeard's face before rebounding back towards the Kremling King. Rushing forward, King K. Rool caught the crown before once again engaging Blackbeard with a rapid barrage of attacks.
However, the Pirate Admiral merely swerved out of their way, apparently predicting them. Following this, he would knock K. Rool back, before picking up a barrel that sat on the side of the ship. Using his claw weapons, Blackbeard would hurl the barrel forward, lodging it into K. Rool's mouth.
Blackbeard: Alright, ya damn crocodile, here's where things end for ya! I'd recommend you make peace with whatever god you bow to!
Rushing in after pocketing the claws, Blackbeard then held his right arm back, the same black smoke from before coating his hand. King K. Rool, whom had bitten down on the barrel and destroyed it, merely stood proudly with his hands on his hips, confidently holding his belly out.
King K. Rool: Go ahead, sucker! Show me your worst!
Though, the king's confidence would betray him, as Blackbeard would use a technique K. Rool had not experienced yet. Expecting it to be another Kurouzu, the Kremling was prideful in his ability to endure, but that all changed when Teach placed said black mist-covered hand on his gut.
Blackbeard: Black Hole.
K. Rool looked down at the Pirate Admiral, his bloodshot eyes widening as a massive mass of blackness overtook the entire deck of the ship. A massive whirlwind created by the Yami Yami's darkness seemingly engulfed K. Rool, leaving no trace of the monstrous tyrant behind as everything faded.
Blackbeard stood, looking around as his opponent could no longer be found. With a chuckle, which then transitioned into his signature laughter, Marshall announced his seeming victory.
Blackbeard: ZEHAHAHAHAHA! What a shame, that such a life had to be wasted today! If ya had only relinquished your supplies sooner, maybe some of this could'a been avoided...
However, as Blackbeard finished his sentiment, the ship gave way underneath him. He let out a howl, as he tumbled down into the inside of the Gangplank Galleon.
(Shadow of the Deep fades out)
Marshall D. Teach landed with a massive thud, throwing up a cloud as he made contact with... whatever ground he landed on. Raising his head up, he slowly looked around, as he analyzed where he had ended up. It seemed to be a... boxing ring?
Blackbeard: Woah... Zehaha, I can see you've got quite the hobby, aye Captain of the Kremlings?
With a smirk, Teach rose to his feet as he analyzed the surrounding area. Though suddenly, that's when the area lit up, as music began to play...
(Cue In The Night)
Blackbeard: Hmmmm, it isn't over yet it seems. Come on out, wherever you are...
Blackbeard closed his eyes, before opening them as he began to use Observation Haki. His vision made its way over to an entry way into the arena, with him sensing the presence of someone inside.
Blackbeard: Gotcha...
Blackbeard would turn around swiftly, firing off one of his flintlocks towards the entrance, which snapped wooden planks holding it up and causing it to fall down. Though K. Rool burst from this debris, now under his Krusha K. Rool persona, bounding towards the ring and jumping in.
Now donning boxing gloves and a blue get-up, in addition to wearing a title belt, the Kremling Kaptain took a stance as he prepared to once more engage his foe.
King K. Rool: I'm gonna make sure you bite the dust!
Blackbeard: Bring it on!
The more human captain readied his fists, before the two rulers rushed in at each other. They each sent out a punch, causing the ring to quake from the impact. They launched back slightly from one another due to the force, but were immediately back at each other's throats. A constant barrage of punches were thrown out from both parties, causing the inner part of the ship to begin to quake and fall apart.
Marshall swung left
K. Rool swung right.
Blackbeard swung right.
Krusha swung left.
Back and forth, back and forth, the two titanic terrors continued their seemingly never-ending brawl. Though, everything has to come to an end at some point, and so did this, when Blackbeard knocked K. Rool away with an uppercut to his jaw!
King K. Rool: Gragh! You're gonna regret messin' with me, you obese oaf!
Blackbeard: Don't count on it! HRAAAGGGHHH!!
The Pirate Admiral swung his fist to the side, causing the air to crack around them. K. Rool swiftly put up his arms, blocking the large amounts of wind that generated from the Gura Gura's main power. However, blocking could not prevent the shockwaves themselves from traveling through his very being, sending him flying to the ropes of the ring.
However, Krusha K. Rool would use this to his advantage, using the momentum to push off the ropes and rebound back at Blackbeard. Marshall D. Teach jabbed at K. Rool, however the Kremling King seemed to phase through the punch. This left a shocked pirate, and the croc to reappear behind him.
King K. Rool: So, it would seem...
K. Rool slammed Blackbeard in the back with a right hook, sending the admiral stumbling forward slightly.
King K. Rool: I'm not the only one with a knack... for taking everything and giving nothing back!
King K. Rool closed in again, leaping around in a boxing pose as he broke out into song. He kept putting the pressure on Blackbeard, driving him further to the corner of the ring.
King K. Rool: I'll take away your Belly, and I'll take away your gems! Hope you'll have enough narration, while I scheme my battle plans!
However, even though he was being overwhelmed, Blackbeard couldn't help but smile to himself. With a cackle, he countered by anticipating K. Rool's punch pattern, weaving out of the way of a jab and decking him straight in the side. He slams his fist into the back of the croc's neck, sending him away.
Blackbeard: Zehahahaha! Good, good! This is entertaining, sing for me fat boy! ZEHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Marshall D. Teach then reequipped his metal claw weapons, rushing in to meet K. Rool once again. Though the Kremling was ready, and closed the distance.
King K. Rool: Now, that my might devours, this is MY FINEST HOUR!
The two began clashing in a whirl of not just punches, but also kicks, spins, grapples, and bludgeonings. The two almost seemed to engage in a dance battle of death, spinning around the ring and striking sick ass moves for a nonexistent audience.
King K. Rool/Blackbeard: NOTHING ON THIS EARTH CAN STOP ME NOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW!!!
The two began speeding up, with Krusha K. Rool tossing his boxing glove at Blackbeard like a boomerang. However, the Admiral used the claw weapon on his right hand to pierce directly through it, before throwing it away. Though that's when K. Rool closed the distance, gutchecking Blackbeard before he had the chance to react.
King K. Rool: This battle, is MINE! I finally have control!
Marshall feels something placed up against his body, a black glove. He looks down, a questioning glance being cast at K. Rool.
King K. Rool: Sorry, if this kicks you out the boat!
Then, a massive electrical current would run throughout Teach's body, causing him to backpedal and collapse to the ground. He began writhing about in pain, trying to contain his screams. Though, this just left the Kremling to step over him, smoke exhaling from his nostrils.
King K. Rool: I'll take your precious cronies, and rule them to appease. AND THEY WILL ALL, SERVE AND BOW TO ME!
The large man grumbled, before lashing out in sheer rage towards the Krocodilian Kacodemon. The Gura Gura activated its ability, as it pelted K. Rool straight in the face multiple times. The air cracked around them, almost as if reality itself was breaking down around the two dueling titans.
K. Rool slid back, before collecting himself and continuing his song.
King K. Rool: YOU FOOL, I'LL WATCH YOU COWER! FOR THIS, IS MY FINEST HOUR! YOU'RE RIGHT ON MY HOOK, JUST LIKE A...
King K. Rool connected a left hook as he said this.
King K. Rool: WOOOOOOOOORRRRRMMMMMMMMMM!!!
Blackbeard, finally, slumped to the ground and spat out blood onto the ring. His face was badly bloodied and bruised, as he was forced to remain on his knees by K. Rool holding him up in place. Holding his boxing glove to the sky and flexing his arm pridefully, K. Rool showboated to the absent audience. Following this, he began to rain blow after blow on Blackbeard's face, the boxing glove created shockwaves and the electrical glove creating electric sparks each time they made contact.
King K. Rool: BEFORE I CRUSH YOU...
K. Rool pelted Blackbeard's face with rapid blows, bloodying it even further and breaking his nose.
King K. Rool: LIKE A BUG!
The Kruel Kremling King continued his merciless beatdown during the song, Marshall's face being reduced to a mess now that his skin and flesh had been torn through.
King K. Rool: Just close your eyes, and accept my drubs!
Blackbeard's face was now even further meshed into a gruesome cacophony of broken bone, blood, and flesh. Blood leaked all over the floor, as K. Rool grabbed Blackbeard by the, well, beard with his electric glove. Said glove began to spark, further burning the former pirate admiral's face.
King K. Rool: I quite enjoy it when you squiiiiiiirrrrrrrmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!~
Finally, K. Rool leapt back, before winding up a gigantic punch with his boxing glove. He then unleashed it forward, aiming to take Teach's dome clean off. The punch connected, and everything was overtaken in a massive shockwave.
(In The Night fades out)
King K. Rool chuckled, as the king's body was leaned forward in somewhat of an arch, his fist outstretched.
King K. Rool: Heh... heheheheh, hahahahaha! HAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! You pathetic pirate, you're even worse than those blasted banana-brained barbarians! Now, I'll be taking my rule over your crew now- Huh?
Krusha K. Rool tried to move his fist, but it wouldn't budge. In fact, every time he tried to move, his fist only seemed to be caught in even more pain. Then, he let out a colossal yell, his eyes cartoonishly popping out of his sockets as a sickening 'CRACK!' echoed across the arena stained with blood and bone.
King K. Rool: GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!
The Kremling King stumbled back, holding his hand which was now broken. He looked up at the smoke cloud which had generated off of the punch he thought he had landed on the Pirate Admiral. Rising out of the cloud, stood Blackbeard. He was badly beaten, though he held on with a smirk still on his badly, brutally beaten-in face.
His arm was encased in a metallic alloy-like substance, Armament Haki. With that same haunting smirk still on his face, Marshall stared daggers into K. Rool's very soul.
Blackbeard: That... was a very unwise move. I'll have you know. Heheh, Armament Haki sonny, it's kinda the greatest type of the stuff! ZEHAHAHAHAHA!
That laugh was now, strangely haunting, coming from the face that now possessed it. Though, this did not deter K. Rool, as he rose back up to the challenge of facing down the opposing pirate tyrant.
King K. Rool: You want to see the TRUE might of the King of the Kremlings!? Fine then! But don't say I didn't warn you, when I absolutely break you.
K. Rool then slung forth his electrical glove, launching out an entire beam of electrical energy. It surged towards Blackbeard, however teach held it back with his Haki-infused arm.
(Resume In The Night)
Teach cackled, as he began to wade forward through the electrical currents. This caused K. Rool to begin to panic slightly, growling in desperation as he threw his remaining boxing glove off, revealing a second black glove.
King K. Rool: Ghhhhhhh, DIE, YOU FREAKISHLY FOOLHARDY FREEBOOTER!
K. Rool launching another wave of electricity out towards Blackbeard, but he infused his other arm with Armament Haki! Marshall punched forward with the other arm, intercepting the electricity with a solid punch. The Gura Gura activated, cracking the air as it traveled back and began vibrating through K. Rool's body, causing the Kremling great pain.
Blackbeard continued to march forward, the sparks diverging on a path that impacted the ship's walls behind him. K. Rool was willing to take this as far as he needed to in order to claim victory, including destroying his own vessel. Not like it wasn't already destroyed in the middle of their fight.
Suddenly, after the distance had been closed, Blackbeard broke the constant electrical beams, which threw K. Rool back some. The Kremling Kaptain looked down, as Blackbeard rushed in with his left arm held back for a large punch.
Blackbeard: I'M GONNA FINISH YA OFF! LET'S SEE YA SURVIVE THIS, YOU DAMN CROCODILE!
King K. Rool looked at Blackbeard approaching him, a sort of white dome appearing on his left fist. K. Rool however smiled, as he held his golden-plated belly outward, going to completely negate the usage of the attack with his extra durable midsection.
However, that isn't what happened. Instead, the fist connected with his golden gut, as the Gura Gura fruit activated one last time. It started off slow at first, but soon the vibrations began to be increased in both intensity and output. After the air cracked around the plated belly, it shattered into thousands of tiny pieces, leaving a surprised K. Rool who was now just reduced to his more normal, organic underside.
Blackbeard: Liberation!
Blackbeard then swung forward with his right arm, placing both right and left arms to K. Rool's stomach. In an instant, the same darkness that generated off from the Black Hole before appeared again, though this time instead of sucking everything in, it expelled everything out.
Wooden planks, cannons, barrels, all sorts of things that it had absorbed recently on the outside of the ship was thrown out, and directly slammed into K. Rool. This caused the Krocodilian Konqueror to be launched out of his ship, breaking through the roof and being launched far off into the distance. The Gangplank Galleon finally snapped fully in half, with Liberation being used inside of it having destroyed the inside plus the hull.
Marshall D. Teach sighed to himself, as he made his way back up to the main deck, blood falling off from his still-mangled face and trailing behind him. As he stepped out onto the sunny deck, K. Rool's crown fell down from the sky, and into Teach's grasp. He looked down at it, before smirking darkly and throwing it to the ground...
Blackbeard: ZEEEEEEHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
...Before then stepping on it, completely crushing it into tiny scraps of gold and jewelry.
King K. Rool crashed into Hideout Helm, an island not too far off from the locale at which the brawl between the two pirate crews had previously been held. The Kremling leader rose to his feet, shaking the cobwebs out of his head... before he noticed something.
He was in the Blast-o-Matic's control room. Cackling to himself, he got up on the control chair as he began to activate the superweapon.
King K. Rool: I'll show that measly marauder what-for! This is the end of you! HAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Blackbeard was still standing on the sinking ship, climbing to the top of the lookout as he tried to get a good look at the ships which had sunk down to the bottom of the sea. So many of his crew's lives had been lost that day, which caused a tinge of grief within the pirate. However, they had died proudly serving by his side, so he couldn't stay too mad about that!
However, that's when he saw a flashing blueish-green light in the distance.
Blackbeard: Huh? Wuzzat?
His eyes flashed a blue hue, as his Observation Haki activated. It clued him in on an island in the distance, and on this island stood what appeared to be a massive statue. It was a crocodile - resembling the one he had just come to blows with, though the top was all decked out in a gold-like metal.
The Pirate Admiral's vision returned to normal, as he saw it beginning to fire back from his position on the sinking Gangplank Galleon. With a look - or, well, what could only be described as a look with the condition his face was currently in - of exhaustion, Blackbeard stuck his hands out to the side. The exhaustion then returned to him as a smirk, as he readied to face the attack he sensed coming.
Blackbeard: Hyeeegggghhhhh... ALRIGHT! BRING IT ON, ONE LAST TIME!
King K. Rool: THIS IS THE END OF YOU! FIIIRRREEEEEEEE!!!
And then, from Hideout Helm, a massive laser fired from the Blast-o-Matic, heading directly towards Marshall D. Teach. It consumed everything in its path, swallowing the sunken ships which were placed along the naval battlefield.
Marshall Teach stared down the death laser as it approached him closer, before then leaping off of the lookout. He used the Shima Yurashi to pull himself along the air, as he launched towards the laser. He held his left arm back, with his hand being surrounded by the same white energy orb as before. And then, he swung it forward...
The beam clashed with the punch, which shattered reality. However, it looked as if Blackbeard was going to be overwhelmed. Though, that's when the Pirate Admiral brought his right arm towards himself, ripping the front half of the Gangplank Galleon off and giving him support to stand on. He used Armament Haki on his right arm, reaching up and blocking the laser. Then, he took his left arm and held it back once more...
Blackbeard: Goodbye, Kremling...
Using his Gura Gura fruit one final time, he grabbed the air and twisted it around, which parted the laser. Marshall redirected it to circle around the ship, before launching it back towards Hideout Helm...
King K. Rool sat in the control of the Blast-o-Matic, as he watched the carnage occurring on the outside. However, he noticed a distinct blue light rushing towards the island. He blinked once, and then twice, before looking at the fourth-wall.
King K. Rool: Oh......... Krud.
And then, we cut to the outside of the Blast-o-Matic, the beam barreling through the island and causing a massive explosion.
Blackbeard stares it down, multiple star-shaped flashes occurring in the distance, before a massive boom echoed across the waves. What followed was flames scorching the skyline, as Blackbeard leaned his head back and began laughing madly.
Blackbeard: ZEEEHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
K.O.!
Results[]
Boomstikk: Woah! Uh, yeah, he's gonna be feeling that one in the morning...
Wiz: This matkhup was, to say the least, very diffikult to figure out. While one kombatant may have held some dekent advantages of their own, but in the end, it seemed like the Pirate Admiral had way to many kounters to K. Rool here.
Boomstikk: Pretty mukh, while K. Rool kould bust up an entire ass island, Blakkbeard massively upskaled from people who kould kut island-busting meteors in klean half!
Wiz: In addition, while K. Rool keeping up with the Kongs - eakh of whom kould dodge elektrikity - was indeed impressive, Marshall Teakh had him beat there too, upskaling from Sanji who is faster than Luffy, who kould dodge light.
Boomstikk: But wait! Wiz and Boomstikk! What about Donkey Kong punkhing down the moon? Shouldn't that just kompletely blow anything Teakh had akkess to, regardless of how mukh he upskaled? Well, not nekkessarily, no.
Wiz: You see, DK's moon is mukh smaller than our own. To move it down like it did, Kong's punkhes would be generating 33.66 gigatons of TNT. While this is impressive and above the number we applied to Blakkbeard, due to the fakt he's MUKH stronger than the main kharakters in One Pieke are right now, and due to this only being over a two times multiplier differenke... yeah you see it.
Boomstikk: To give kredit to K. Rool though, he was legit a genius. He made a lot of the gizmos and gadgets he used on his own. His entire empire was built from the ground up with nothing but himself and his blood, sweat, and weird alligator tears.
Wiz: But overall, this kould only delay the inevitable. With that wide of a stat gap, behind the kind of abilities the Yami Yami and Gura Gura gave Teakh, it was only a matter of time before the pirate plunderer took his toll on the Kremling King.
Boomstikk: I guess that, in the end, King K. Rool kouldn't hoard this viktory. It was merely a dream.
Wiz: The winner is Blakkbear-
???[]
Suddenly, the screen began to glitch, as Wiz and Boomstick were both ripped into thousands of pieces. However, they weren't Wiz and Boomstick, but actually Kremlings in really, really good disguises! They cackled, as the fourth-wall zoomed back into the fight.
!!![]
(Cue Fever [At 2:10])
King K. Rool groaned, as he rose back to his feet, pushing the destroyed rubble off of him. He reached into his nonexistent pockets, before pulling out a Crystal Banana. He chuckled, before throwing it upwards and snapping his big jaws around it. The view of the camera zoomed out of Hideout Helm.
It cuts to Blackbeard, who still sits on the ship. Though, that's when K. Rool emerged out of the wreckage of the burning island, roaring towards the sky and looming over the area with a godly presence.
King K. Rool: RUN, RUN, RUN... AS FAST AS YOU CAN... YOU CAN'T ESCAPE ME, I RULE THESE LANDS!
Blackbeard grumbled, before shouting towards the sky in frustration. Just how many times was this big crocodile gonna keep returning from the brink of defeat to fight him?! However, that's when he finally huffed, before staring back down towards K. Rool. Even though his face was badly bloodied, even though his power and stamina were heavily depleted, even though he reasonably should've been long collapsed by now, Blackbeard couldn't help but want to continue this fight.
Blackbeard: Alright... I'll make sure to finish it this time. COME, AND FINISH ME K. ROOL! TRY YOUR BEST, BUT IT WON'T BE EASY!
The Kremling Kaptain and King was damn annoying and irritating, Blackbeard had to admit it, but it was a glorious battle fought up until now. And at the end of the day, he respected that about King K. Rool.
The giant K. Rool roared, as countless meteors began falling from the sky.
Marshall placed his hands to the sinking front of the Gangplank, positioning himself on the very front of the head of the ship.
The meteors crashed into the waves, blowing up countless other ships and carcasses which littered the nautical conflict. However, Teach maneuvered around this by using his Gura Gura fruit to use Kaishin to shatter the air and cause a massive tsunami. Blackbeard cackled, as he used Shima Yurashi to guide the tsunami in order that he could dodge the falling meteors.
Explosions pushed the tsunami further along, as Blackbeard began nearing K. Rool. The giant crocodile would grumble, before stomping the ground and sending out a tremor across the waves. Seeing this coming, Teach leapt into the air and began swirling his right arm in darkness. He began almost flying, breaching the sound barrier and positioning himself above the island. He let out a warcry, as he launched himself downwards.
Blackbeard: GIVE IT EVERYTHING YOU'VE GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!
K. Rool angled his head up at Blackbeard, before launching out a belch of flames from his mouth. They rushed around Marshall, burning him to a crisp. However, the Pirate Admiral kept going, even though his body now began to slowly but surely match his face. The darkness coalesced around Blackbeard also, as he slammed his right hand downwards.
Blackbeard: RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
King K. Rool: ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
The two titanic pirates continued putting their everything into what they could tell to be their final attacks, until K. Rool smirked to himself. He called down meteors from outer space, which pelted up against the moon. It broke and fragmented slightly, a majority of it falling down from its orbit.
The nigh-godly Kremling then put his all into his firebreath, which began to push back at Marshall D. Teach harder. However, the antagonist to Luffy and the Straw Hats did not falter just yet. He kept fighting until the bitter end, pushing against flame with blackness.
But even that very bitter end had to come some time.
The moon slammed into Blackbeard's back, causing his limbs to crash against it as K. Rool's breath began to char him beyond recognition. He began to be incinerated, however Blackbeard couldn't help but still smile even in his final moments. And all he did, was just...
Blackbeard: ZEHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHHAHAHHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-
KABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
The moon exploded into millions of chunks, taking Teach along with it.
King K. Rool still loomed down on the island below, grumbling to himself. However, he then smacked his belly, before roaring to the sky, announcing his victory. Flames burned around him. Countless creatures dead, sprawled out and sinking in the ocean surrounding him. The sky was bleached a frightening mixture of red and orange, from the explosion that had just occurred.
But K. Rool had survived. And now, the world would be his. And not even those confounded Kongs were going to be able to stop him.
K.O.!
Results (for real this time)[]
Boomstick: Uhhhhhhh... Ok, Wiz, I can sense we got a lot of 'splaining to do.
Wiz: Correct, Boomstick. Now, you may be confused by this outcome, but we assure you, it's quite clear. Let us explain.
Boomstick: So, let's start out with the most obvious one, strength. Both of these guys had island-busting capabilities easily, with K. Rool surviving an island exploding on him plus being able to destroy Kong Island with the Blast-o-Matic and Blackbeard scaling above Zoro who cut that island-busting meteor.
Wiz: Though, they get much higher through scaling to other high-tier characters in their universes. King K. Rool regularly fights Donkey Kong, who was capable of igniting the air with his punches and sending down the moon with a single, charged-up punch. However, Blackbeard was capable of shaking the entire earth on a Magnitude 6 scale with the Gura Gura no Mi, scaling to Whitebeard who could do the same.
Boomstick: This would come out to an energy of 33.6 exatons. Enough to break the moon! And this would naturally be more impressive than punching a moon which is much smaller than ours back down to Earth, right Wiz? So, does this mean Blackbeard takes strength?
Wiz: Well, not exactly. You see, Donkey Kong's moon punch feat is actually much more impressive than you may think. As seen later on in Mario Odyssey, the moon is actually larger than what we see in Donkey Kong Country Returns, and in several other games it is as well. So, it's likely this is more a visual representation, meant to get across to the viewer what's happening through an easily digestible medium, similar to Mario punting away the castle in Super Mario World.
Boomstick: With this actual size for Mario's moon more closely estimated to our own, we can actually calculate the energy needed for Donkey Kong to one-punch this moon down to Earth and bounce it back up directly into orbit again would be 124.73 ronnatons of TNT. That's enough to blow up a dwarf star, and over 3 quadrillion times greater than anything Blackbeard can scale to! Damn!
Wiz: Additionally, if you aren't convinced, there are other feats in the Marioverse which further back up this level of power. Like Wario surviving the Shake King's explosion which comes out to 41 zettatons of TNT, nearly reaching planetary-busting capabilities. Or Bowser surviving a dip in a star, with said star going supernova right on top him.
Boomstick: Additionally, our modern DK is one of the seven Star Children. And K. Rool frequently engaging in conflicts with him means that King K. Rool would scale to the rest of the modern Mario cast and without a doubt confirming that the events of Donkey Kong Country are canonical to the wider Mario universe.
Wiz: Now, the Kremling Kaptain obviously holds the strength advantage, but that wouldn't matter if Blackbeard could just horrendously outspeed him and destroy his insides with the Gura Gura's powers. And that's where the problem lies, he isn't faster.
Blackbeard: K. Rool's direct feats may be lacking when compared to Blackbeard's, sure - I mean, it's electricity-dodging VS light-dodging - but that isn't the only thing he has. He frequently battles Donkey Kong, who scales to the rest of the Mario cast, yada-yada, you get it by now.
Wiz: Mario himself was capable of reacting to the sun flying down towards him in order to kill him in his earlier games, and later on in Mario Galaxy can navigate between galaxies. That's far above anything Blackbeard's shown capable of doing, at least with where One Piece is right now.
Boomstick: To be completely fair to ol' Marshy though, he did have a few advantages of his own. Like being able to maintain a more consistent air of threatening power, or his overall experience gained from his acts of piracy.
Wiz: Additionally, Teach also had the far better relationship with his crew. While he may (scratch that, is) an absolute menace in the eyes of others, he genuinely cares about his crew and leads them through example, while K. Rool rules through fear and absolute control, causing even his own people to fear him.
Boomstick: Though, with K. Rool's genius intelligence, he could likely work out a counter to all this. Simply put, nothing Blackbeard could really do in the end would be enough to put down the Kremling King. Sure he could possibly break through his body with the Gura Gura, or even steal away the Crystal Banana's powers with the Yami Yami, but that's gonna be very hard to do when Teach can't even touch him!
Wiz: While both of these cruel captains had their own triumphs, Blackbeard's downfalls were simply too great here to keep up with K. Rool.
Boomstick: Screw the Rool of cool, Wiz! This was just absolutely cruel, and in the end Marshall D. Teach was left All Blue.
Wiz: The winner is King K. Rool.

Trivia[]
- The connections between King K. Rool and Marshall D. Teach are:
- Both are greedy, cunning, and power-hungry overweight pirate captains who were originally part of a different pirate crew until an incident happened which caused them to separate from said crew and form their own (the Kremling Krew and the Blackbeard Pirates).
- Both have a history of stealing valuable fruits from others (Donkey Kong's Banana Hoard and Devil Fruits).
- Both served as major antagonists towards the main protagonists of their series' (Donkey Kong and Monkey D. Luffy) who have associations with apes (Donkey Kong being a gorilla and Luffy's full name having Monkey in it).
- Both have claws and guns in their arsenal of weapons, and both possess supernatural powers (Magic for King K. Rool and the Dark-Dark Fruit power for Blackbeard).
- Both are renowned for their iconic laughs ("Raaah-ha-ha-ha!" and "Zee-ha-ha-ha!").
