7. Mutations
On the shore of a deserted island, as it had been three years ago, Chiba and Okuma looked at each other. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The sea breeze blew slowly, blowing Chiba's hair and the bear's clothes.
After a long time, Big Bear slowly shook his head, "I'm sorry, Chiba, I'm afraid I can't go with you......"
Although it had been expected, when Big Bear really rejected him, Chiba couldn't help but feel a little depressed. He didn't ask why, he believed that Big Bear would explain it to him.
Sure enough, Big Bear then said the reason for his refusal, "Chiba, I've been living here for as long as I can remember. This is my home, and here are all my memories. Maybe it's poor, maybe it's dilapidated, but it's my home, and I've been here since the master brought me back, whether it's life or death, I belong here. ”
Chiba looked at him silently, did not interrupt, but listened quietly.
Da Xiong paused and continued, "The master once told me that my parents, don't be afraid of your jokes, they are actually pirates, and they were killed by my master's own hands. But I don't blame him at all, on the contrary, I am very grateful to him. I know what a pirate is, and I also know how evil a pirate is, and it was the master who saved me from my doomed fate and gave me a brighter life. I know you have great ambitions, whether you are a pirate or a navy, that's your ambition. And I, I just want to live on this little island forever, I say that, you know?"
Big Bear suddenly turned his head to look at Chiba, his eyes extremely earnest.
Chiba opened his mouth, he had a lot to say, and there were countless reasons he wanted to use to persuade the big bear, but when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't say a word. A thousand words converge into one sentence, "I believe." ”
Big Bear smiled happily, his eyes narrowed into a slit, "So I'm sorry I can't go to sea with you, but it's okay, you just need to remember that I'm still here, your other home is here, and when you're tired or tired, you can come back at any time." ”
Okuma stood up and patted Chiba on the shoulder.
Chiba actually really wanted to ask: Since you want to live here for the rest of your life, why did you become a pirate in the original book, and also became one of the Seven Martial Seas of the King? This is your apparent identity, but what about your other identity? Why do you want to be a revolutionary army? What made you change your mind in the original book?
He couldn't ask this question after all, he ate the meat ball fruit that originally belonged to the big bear, and the big bear's life has changed.
Chiba let out a long sigh and gave up the idea of inviting the big bear, he patted the big bear's arm, "Okay, since you have already decided so, I won't force you, in short, if you don't want to live here anymore, you can ......"
As he spoke, a roar suddenly came from a distance, followed by a rumbling vibration under his feet.
Chiba and Okuma changed their faces at the same time, and they suddenly looked in the direction where the sound came from, only to see a black pillar of smoke rising up in the direction of the village.
"Not good!"
Chiba and Okuma looked at each other, exclaimed at the same time, and then, without saying a word, the two quickly ran towards the village.
At this time, Chiba's three years of hard cultivation finally had an effect, and with a flick of his legs on the ground, the whole person had turned into a violent wind and rushed out. At the same time, with the palms of both hands facing backwards, the ability of the meat ball fruit continued to be activated, constantly bouncing the air, and using the reaction force to push him forward at great speed.
And the big bear is not slower than him, although the big bear has no fruit ability, but his physical fitness is too good, the explosive power is extremely strong, every time his legs exert force, he can leave a small pit on the ground, just like a real bear, it looks clumsy, but it is actually extremely fast.
The island was not very big, and it was less than a hundred miles to go around in a circle, and the two of them ignored the beasts in the forest, and directly crossed the dense forest, and it took less than five minutes to appear on the other side of the island.
However, the scene in front of them stunned both of them.
On the distant sea, there were several warships parked as a whole, all of them turned sideways at this time, opened the gun doors, and the muzzles of the black holes continued to burst out of sparks, smashing cannonballs the size of human heads into the village.
The village was already in flames, and the villagers screamed and wailed as they turned to ashes in the fire.
Chiba saw with his own eyes the old blacksmith who had "calculated" him, holding his old wife, was interrupted by a cannonball, and his body was broken in two. But even so, he still held his wife's hand tightly and refused to let go for a second.
At this moment, Chiba's eyes turned red.
Although he had little contact with other people for three years, no matter how little contact he had, he finally got acquainted with these villagers. The reason why he put his place to sea on the other side of the island was that he didn't want others to know that he was going to leave, and he didn't want to suffer from separation.
These villagers live a very hard life, and the poor life makes them have some more calculations, but the villagers are still very simple on the whole. Small calculations may just be an adjustment to their ordinary life, and when Chiba really needs it, they never have any excuses. Before he knew it, Chiba had fallen in love with these lovely villagers, and although he would eventually leave, as Okuma said, he had made this place his second home.
But now, all this is actually ruined, and the naval artillery fire has destroyed everything.
The anger in Chiba's heart had already burned wildly in just a moment.
"Ahhh!!h
Chiba roared in anger and leaped forward, just in time for the flight path of a cannonball. He raised his right hand, staring at the cannonball flying closer and closer, his muscles tensed tightly, and the moment he saw the cannonball flying, his palm quickly slapped forward.
Syllable!
In the roar of artillery fire, this would have been an insignificant crisp sound. But the cannonball, which was still like thunder, suddenly turned around and flew back at a faster speed in the direction it originally flew from.
After a few seconds......
Rumble!
A warship in the distance suddenly exploded, and a huge fireball appeared on the hull, and more than a dozen nearby gun ports were all blown to shreds, and the guns and shells inside turned into flying ash together.
There was a momentary lag in the naval fleet, as if it was also surprised by the explosion of its companions. But less than half a minute later, the sound of artillery was heard again, and this time the rain of shells was even more intense, and the navy in the distance seemed determined to completely raze the small mountain village to the ground.
"You forced me!"
Chiba gritted his teeth, his arms suddenly opened, his palms facing the sky, standing in the small village full of artillery fire, desperately unleashing his abilities.
The flesh pads of his hands continued to tremble, transmitting the fluctuations into the air little by little, and soon, a huge translucent air balloon appeared between Chiba's arms. This air balloon is three or four meters in diameter, and it is so conspicuous even in the midst of artillery fire.
The people on the warship spotted him, and more than a dozen guns turned slightly, aiming at Chiba's location.
Chiba's teeth bit his lip and blood flowed out, but he didn't take half a step back, and stood there with his legs as if they were rooted, staring at the warship in the distance, grasping every minute and every second of compressed air.
The huge balloon of air continued to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye, and its diameter of three or four meters shrank by more than half in a few breaths, and it was already less than two meters.
But he still needed at least ten seconds before it was completed, but the artillery in the distance roared at this time.
Then, more than a dozen swarthy cannonballs flew up from a distance, cutting a gentle arc through the air, flying exactly towards Chiba's location.
The cannonballs were getting closer and closer, and sweat was running down Chiba's forehead, and if he stepped back now, he could dodge them, otherwise he would have been hit head-on by the cannonballs, and he would be defenseless. But he didn't want to retreat, and he couldn't retreat, behind him was a scourge village, in which there was not one out of ten villagers, and these innocent people were all killed for inexplicable reasons. If he didn't avenge these people, then would he still be a man? What was the point of the skills he had cultivated in the past three years?
So he doesn't retreat, it doesn't matter if he is hit by a shell, as long as he can survive this round, he can make these navies pay a terrible price.
At this moment, Chiba tensed the skin all over his body, and he was ready to use his body to resist the cannonball.
The cannonballs were getting closer and closer, and Chiba's ears could even hear the sound of the cannonballs breaking through the air at a rapid rate.
But at this moment, a huge figure suddenly stood in front of him......
Then the shell exploded.
Chiba's eyes widened, and he looked at the huge figure in front of him, it was Da Xiong, he used his body to block more than a dozen shells from the navy for Chiba, and he used his body to buy more than ten seconds for Chiba.
"Chiba...... For everyone, revenge ......"
Big Bear didn't have a good piece of meat on his body, he turned his head and smiled at Chiba with difficulty, then closed his eyes and slowly fell down.
"No!"
Chiba's roar resounded across the island.
The balloon, which was already less than half a meter away, was compressed to the size of a palm in less than two seconds.
The originally translucent air balloon was now like a small light bulb, emitting a dazzling white light.
Chiba raised his hands and aimed them at the naval fleet from a distance like a cannon, and then the palm of his hand trembled slightly.
"Die!"
In the next second, the small ball of light shot out at a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye, pulling a long white line in the air, and then steadily burrowed into the navy's fleet.
Boom - !!
