Chapter 779: Marco the Undead Bird
Xinglie successfully triggered Vice Admiral Karp's optional hidden side quest, with two options, the first of which was to escape under the full cover of the Navy and return to the Navy Headquarters on Marinfando Island to seek support, level 4 difficulty, requiring the support unit to return to the battlefield within three days.
With Xing Lie immediately analyzed the difficulty of the task, although the naval forces of the two sides in the confrontation here are obviously at a disadvantage, but the strength of the vice admiral is not a joke, especially Karp, although he is a vice admiral, but he is a very role that even a general can beat violently, and he can also be ranked among the super-first-class masters in the entire navy, so it is basically no problem to be covered and escaped.
The reason why the mission difficulty coefficient can reach level 4 is entirely because the time for sending support troops is too tight.
Normally, it would take two days for naval forces to arrive here from Marinfando Island at the earliest, so the most difficult part of choosing this mission is whether they can get back to Marinfandor Island by all means in one day.
Xing Lie has a tailless purple electric snake equipped with the puppet artifact of the Pain Mask, as long as he strengthens two pairs of meat wings with evil thoughts, it will be easy to rush back in one day, but in the end, Xing Lie still chose the more dangerous second option, that is, to stay in the Fish Sea to fight with the pirate forces.
This option has a difficulty factor of up to 5, and if you can survive three days until naval support arrives, and save Karp's life during this time, you will be rewarded with an additional 50% of rank experience in addition to basic stat points and panic points.
If you convert it into a bounty, that's five billion berry, and this reward alone is hard to refuse.
Moreover, from Karp's casual words, Xing Lie thought that if he completed this task, there might be other additional rewards, such as the Super Physical Skill Navy Six Style!
In the One Piece story, the Devil Fruit is synonymous with power, and the number of Devil Fruit ability owners in the Navy is not very large, far less than the pirates, the reason why they can still take the initiative and beat most of the pirates to the head of the rat is not unrelated to the strong physical skills of the Navy Six.
Long before entering the current monthly exam world, Xing Lie had made a query in the university mall, and he had not found the skill of the Navy Six, which means that the Navy Six-Style must belong to the category of rare skills.
The great Mr. Ma has said that if there is a 100% profit, capital will dare to risk hanging his head, so Xing Lie will not hesitate to choose the hidden branch.
Of course, the reward is only one of the factors in making such a choice, and more importantly, because of the appearance of Trafalgaro, the owner of the ability of the surgical fruit!
Xing Lie covets the fruits of the operation, but he must not let go of the slightest opportunity, so today's fight with Luo must be fought, and no factor can stop it.
After accepting this hidden side quest, the cadet's handbook contains an additional piece of information about Karp's friendship.
Monchi D Karp Favorability: 10/100
Friendship is a small stage of 20, 40, 60, 80, 90, and 100 points, and rewards can be unlocked after reaching this stage.
(Note: Please find out how to get opinion.) )
Xing Lie touched his chin, and he was more sure what the most critical reward for the hidden main quest was, Karp's favorability was divided into six small stages, which corresponded to the Navy Six.
As for how to improve the favorability, in the current situation, it is nothing more than to contribute to the navy, and the best way to contribute is to kill pirates and rescue other naval colleagues.
Karp sent an officer to the Navy headquarters to send reinforcements, and when the officer received the order, he took off his clothes and jumped into the sea, leaving only a pair of shorts.
Xing Lie also wanted to borrow a speedboat to go out, and he didn't know if this would improve Karp's favor, but when he saw that the school officer was like a flying fish scurrying in the sea, he couldn't help but secretly shake his head and smile bitterly.
Xing Lie has watched a European and American film, in which the protagonist is called Aquaman, it is no exaggeration to say that this school officer's swimming speed is not weaker than the other party's, and even faster than the tailless purple electric snake when it flies at full strength, it seems that if there is no accident, the support force will definitely be able to arrive within three days.
After the previous officer jumped into the sea, the pirates' side finally moved, and the black holes of the guns of all the ships protruded from the bows, and then a deafening rumbling sound was heard, and all the guns fired a salvo.
In fact, whether it is the pirates or the navy present, they all know that in this kind of battle at the level of the strong, the role of artillery is almost negligible, and the purpose of this is just to boost morale, which is equivalent to blowing the horn of attack.
Sure enough, a burly man with the rank of brigadier general stood up, he exerted force under his feet, his body jumped high, his arms extended, and a large amount of white mist was released from his body, which filled a large area of the sea in an instant, and the fog enveloped all the ships of the navy.
Then the fog began to change from tangible and incorporeal, to tangible and qualitative, forming a solid mist, and the shells were blocked without missing anything.
The man falls from mid-air and smiles, giving people an uninhibited feeling.
This man is very charismatic, and can make a deep impression at a glance, with silver hair, a resolute face, and especially two cigars in his mouth.
Xing Lie knew that this man, his name was Smoker, and his name was similar to the English pronunciation of cigarettes, and he was the old enemy of the rubber man in the original plot, and the capture of the straw hat was his biggest goal.
This first confrontation between the navy and the pirates ended like this, and no one bargained, but this was the first shot of the battle, and suddenly countless pirates shouted loudly, and the ships of the navy began to approach each other, and finally the melee began, and the two sides fought in a mess.
"Old man Karp, don't even think about leaving anyone in the navy, including the one who escaped just now!"
The one who spoke was the captain of the first team of the Whitebeard Pirates, the immortal bird Marko, who was also a veteran who had followed Whitebeard for many years, and was Whitebeard's right and left hand, with the ability to achieve the fruit of the immortal bird, and his recovery ability was extremely strong, as long as he was not fatally injured, he could not be killed.
Moreover, the Devil Fruit of the Natural Phantom Beast Species gave him one of the few flying abilities in the entire Pirate World, and the fruit of the undead bird Marco was also one of the alternative fruits that Xing Lie wanted to get.
When Marko's voice fell, a high-pitched and loud birdsong resounded through the heavens and the earth, and a ball of azure blue flames rose into the sky.
Xing Lie didn't expect Marko's speed to be so fast, if no one stopped him, it was estimated that he would be able to catch up with the school officer who had sent reinforcements in less than two minutes.
"Hmph, it's really arrogant, then let's see if it's your speed or Lao Tzu's fist!"
Karp grinned, flew up, and when the lifting force weakened, he slammed into the void under his feet, as if stepping on the borrowing point, and jumped into the air faster.
Karp came first, appearing directly in Marco's flight path and slamming out without any fancy punches.
If you use data to describe it, Karp punched 10 when he punched, but when this punch hit half the distance, the punch speed suddenly climbed to more than 50, which was not caught off guard at all.
"It's the moon step and the finger gun in the six styles!"
This is the first time I've seen Karp do it, and it's a six-style stunt at hand, and the function and power are so powerful, it deserves to be the strongest physical skill in the navy!
With a loud bang, Karp's fist landed on Marko's face, making a sound like hitting a rock, and Marko's body fell like a cannonball, crashing into a pirate ship, almost sinking the entire ship.
Karp's strength is really beyond imagination, and everyone knows how strong the immortal bird Marco is, and there are almost few opponents in the navy, but he is so vulnerable to Karp.
The blue flame rose again, and the blue flame bird that Marco incarnated into flew into the air again, just now Karp's punch knocked half of Marko's face into a blur of flesh and blood, but under the effect of extremely strong recovery power, the injury was restored at a speed visible to the naked eye, and its recovery ability was even more terrifying than the self-healing ability of the torture spirit.
"Old man Karp, it seems that you are really old, and the soft fist tickles me. ”
Marco wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, he clearly looked weak, but he was so resistant to beating.
The power of Karp's punch just now was not well received, but Xing Lie was sure that if he had to bear it himself, his jaw would be shattered.
"Soft fists? hahaha, it's the first time someone has described my Karp's fist like this, so let's do it again!"
Karp laughed wildly and took the initiative to attack, where the slightest trace of old age could still be seen?
Marco represents the strongest combat power on the pirate side, and Karp represents the strongest combat power on the naval side, and the two fought again, and Marco was beaten out again and again without suspense, but his strong recovery allowed him to be able to devote himself to the battle almost instantly.
It can be seen that Marco is not Karp's opponent, but the difficulty is enough to collapse, this guy is simply an unbeatable Xiaoqiang, as long as he fails to take his life with the strongest attack in the shortest possible time, this guy will be reborn from the fire and return to the peak of physical strength.
This is also where Marko's strength lies, even against enemies of unequal strength, he can avoid being killed in seconds through his extremely fast speed and flying ability, and at the same time rely on his strong recovery ability to grind the enemy to exhaustion.
Xing Lie had been watching the battle between Karp and Marco on the naval flagship, and the visual impact of his fists and fists made his blood surge even though he was indifferent.
Marco is a good opponent, if it weren't for the appearance of another team of college cadets and the ability of the Surgical Fruit, Xing Lie would really want to replace Karp, who had obviously wasted a lot of physical strength, and go to fight the immortal bird Marco heartily.
"The coach is desperate, let's go meet old friends for a while. ”
Xing Lie looked at the red lotus in the distance, a smile appeared on his cold face, and he greeted the four people in the team behind him, and then took out the purple gold dragon coffin and released the tailless purple electric snake, a puppet that acts as a flying mount.
