Chapter 5: Sleepless Nights

Although it was the first time that Sherlock had fought against an animal fruit ability, he was sure that it would be impossible to kill Duncan with just one shot, otherwise the hundreds of millions of Baileys would be too worthless.

With a low beastly roar, Duncan the bear man got up from the rubble, he was oozing blood from his mouth and nose, but this only increased his ferocity, his pair of bear eyes glowed red, grinning and revealing dagger-like sharp teeth, saliva overflowed, with Duncan's increasingly heavy breathing, drop by drop fell to the ground, Sherlock frowned.

It's disgusting, Sherlock thought.

"Whew!!" Duncan yelled, and then his whole body rushed towards Sherlock like a tank with full power, but Sherlock stood motionless as if he was frightened.

Dunn's eyes gleamed with bloodlust, and he opened his mouth and bit down hard at Sherlock's head. Duncan could even imagine the blood-splattered scene that followed.

However, something miraculous happened, Duncan's massive body passed directly through Sherlock's body, and with a powerful inertia, he smashed a wall to pieces.

"Hey, hey, where are you going?" Sherlock's playful voice came from behind

Duncan shook his head a little dazed, turned his head to follow the voice, but saw a dozen "Sherlocks" just looking at him for a while, the same movements, the same expressions.

"Phantom... Illusions?, is this your Devil Fruit ability?" asked Duncan.

"Sort of," a dozen Sherlocks replied together, overlapping voices coming from all directions, looking very eerie.

"Let's play a game. ”

"I'll stand here and don't hide, you choose one to fight, if you choose the wrong one, I'll give you a shot, how about it? ”

"Bastard!" Duncan roared, his claws flying, the wind howling, and he attacked all the mirror images in a row, but none of them were Sherlock's real body.

"It's a shame that I chose all the wrong ones. All Sherlock's mirrors turned their heads to look at Duncan.

"You've attacked a total of thirteen illusions, so I'm going to shoot you thirteen shots, but luckily there are mirror entities, otherwise there really aren't enough bullets..."

"Bump!" A gunshot rang out from the void, and then a huge lead bullet hit Duncan's stomach, Duncan snorted, spit out a mouthful of blood, and his huge body flew backwards and far away, before he landed, but the second gunshot had already sounded...

Bump, bump, bump......

After thirteen shots, Sherlock lifted the illusion, and his true body slowly revealed from the void.

In the beginning, Sherlock didn't give Duncan the right answer.

Looking at the bear-man lying on the ground like a dead dog, Sherlock put away his pistol and walked slowly to Duncan, who was still standing up.

I have to say that Duncan's ability to resist attacks is really eye-catching, worthy of the ability of animal fruits, with rough skin and thick flesh, in the face of more than a dozen close-range shots from the main guns of the Navy battleship, he was not bombarded into pieces, but only suffered a little skin trauma and vomited a few mouthfuls of blood.

Just when the distance between the two was only two or three meters, Duncan, who was originally pretending to be dead, suddenly burst out, his blood poured into his pupils, and the huge bear paw slapped Sherlock's head fiercely.

"I knew you wouldn't die so easily. Faced with a blow like the crushing of Mount Tai, Sherlock, who had been prepared, was not afraid, and his mind moved, and a sparkling barrier appeared on the surface of his skin,

"Mirror reversal!"

Time seemed to have stopped, and the moment it touched Sherlock's skin, the moment it touched Sherlock's skin, it turned against each other, followed by the sound of bones breaking, Duncan first felt his right hand lose sensation, and then a sharp pain filled his entire brain.

"This guy is too weak, can it be said that animal-based devil fruits are useless except to resist beating?" Sherlock thought to himself,

In fact, it can't be said that the ability of the bear fruit is weak, after all, there is no garbage fruit, it can only be said that Duncan is used to being pampered, and he can't give full play to the power of the bear fruit, that is, he can bully and bully ordinary people. Moreover, the ability of the Mirror Fruit has a strong restraint against this kind of enemy who relies on brute force.

Duncan's right arm was twisted into a strange shape, and the pain was so severe that Duncan couldn't even maintain his bearish form, his eyes were bloodshot and his mouth was wide open and he let out a terrible scream.

Sherlock pushed his glasses, lowered his body, and reached out his hands to rummage through Duncan's already beggar-like clothes, and in a few moments, pulled out a key from one of the pockets of the lining, which was quite delicately made.

Duncan just wanted to stop it, but accidentally touched the wound on his right hand, and almost fainted in pain.

Wiped the blood off the key in disgust, and Sherlock smiled at Duncan.

"Actually, the stack of evidence just now is all blank paper, I teased you, I really didn't expect you to really believe it"

Duncan's eyes widened as he stared at Sherlock, the fat on his face trembling.

Sherlock raised the key in his hand, stared at Duncan's face, completely ignored Duncan's eyes that seemed to be about to kill, and said lightly:

"But it doesn't matter if you have proof or not, I just hope that the contents of your little coffer will satisfy me. ”

Duncan's distorted face changed color slightly, and although it was small, Sherlock still caught the subtle change.

Nodding in satisfaction, Sherlock put the key away and pulled the pistol out of his pocket again.

"Don't worry, it's not my principle to take revenge, and I'll go to find trouble in the navy, but..."

The muzzle of the gun was pointed at Duncan's face, which was gradually turning into a frightened expression, and the corners of Sherlock's mouth went up.

"I'm afraid you won't see it. ”

"Wait! No... Don't! I..."

"Bump ..." A crisp burst of gunfire rang out in the wreckage-filled room.

Putting the pistol away, Sherlock dusted off the dust on his clothes and calmly left the murder scene.

Although it was the first time to kill someone with his own hands, Sherlock was very calm, don't blame Sherlock for being cold-blooded, after all, as a qualified businessman, Sherlock understood such a truth from a very young age.

Kindness is reserved for friends and relatives, and kindness to enemies is cruelty to oneself.

After Sherlock opened the door of the treasure vault with the key, he looked at the dozen or so boxes of neatly placed precious jewels, Rao had already seen the big scene, and he was also distracted for a moment. It is worthy of being a veteran chamber of commerce in the East China Sea, and its family background is strong!

"It's still like this, it's quick," Sherlock thought to himself, playing with a large ruby.

After Sherlock put all of Duncan's personal possessions into the Mirror Space, he covered himself with a wide cloak before exiting the villa to be greeted by hundreds of well-equipped navies.

Glancing at the numbers on the navy's uniforms, Sherlock pushed his glasses without a trace, the corners of his mouth turned up.

"The number of the Fourth Division, yes. ”

Sherlock's expression remained unchanged, he had already sensed the problem with the key from the change in Duncan's expression, so he deliberately opened the treasure house in the wrong way, in order to lure the snake out of the hole.

A naval leader in the navy who was dressed in a navy hat saw a very suspicious cloaked man, so he stepped forward and said loudly:

"Listen, you're surrounded by us, put down your weapons and crouch down with your head in your hands, or we'll shoot." ”

The navy also cooperated with raising their muskets and loading them to aim.

Pointed at hundreds of muskets, Sherlock was undaunted, tightened his cloak, and walked forward calmly.

The pitch-black figure blended into the pitch-black night, and the distance between the two sides gradually approached.

The air seemed to gradually become solidified, and the atmosphere was very oppressive.

"Don't go any further, or we'll shoot!" yelled the Navy Chief, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Sherlock's footsteps remained rhythmic, unhurried.

"Goo~" A few navymen who felt a little uneasy swallowed their saliva, and the palms of their guns were full of fine sweat.

"Shoot!" the Navy chief ordered.

"Bang bang bang...", the navy began to fire a volley, but then there was their screams, and the sound of muskets blasting and boring, one after another.

After turning on the mirror reversal, Sherlock is invincible unless the attack strength exceeds the upper limit of the reflection, and all attacks on him are like light encountering mirrors, where they come from and where they go back.

"Stop shooting, stop shooting!" shouted the head of the Navy in a hurry.

"The opponent is a Devil Fruit ability, the shooting is ineffective, and the battle is white-handed!"

"Okay, you're done shooting, it's up to me. ”

Sherlock pulled out the delicately shaped pistol again, and copied one with a mirror entity, holding the gun in both hands, and the whole figure gradually disappeared in the moonlight. The navy, which rushed half with a sword, was terrified.

The moon is like a broken knife, and the wind is like a wolf's howl

This night is destined to be a sleepless night.
