Chapter 105: Jesus Cloth

East Sea, West Lob Village.

The cold snap of autumn is no match for the enthusiasm of the people, and the heat of a clearing on the outskirts of the village has replaced the quiet of the past, and the local residents eagerly surround a large arena, and the crowd is occasionally bursting with cheers and whistles, this remote village has not been so lively for a long time.

There is a shooting competition going on in the arena, but looking at the current situation, it has become an individual performance.

On a humble platform on the east side of the shooting range, William was wearing a dark red cloak, Edmund, and Dampier and Sherlock, and the three of them stood not far behind him, and several of them were also attracted by the situation in the arena, and they couldn't take their eyes off it.

Several other players in the arena put down their guns helplessly at this time, watching a thin man with long fluffy hair and thick lips in the field put down the old flintlock pistol in his hand, and then picked up the revolver handed to him by the referee.

On the other side, several staff members who acted as referees came to the shooting range and took away all the full ring targets in front of the man's position.

The referee explained the structure of this rare weapon in the East China Sea to the thick-lipped man, but seeing that the man looked lazy and full of alcohol, he didn't know if he listened or not, and after he took the revolver from the referee's hand, he actually carried the gun directly to the crowd on the sidelines, took a bottle of beer from a young woman wearing a square scarf, and then gave the other party a passionate kiss.

The local villagers kept whistling, and only when the young woman embarrassedly nudged the thick-lipped man did he walk back to the shooting range with a grin.

Danbiel came to test the data of the new weapon, and he was a little displeased with the man's behavior in the arena, and commented coldly: "I don't know. ”

"Jesus is indeed a little loose," Sherlock on the side pushed the eyes on the bridge of his nose and explained with a smile, "but his marksmanship is famous far and wide, and I have heard of it for a long time, so I will recommend it to William." ”

While the two were talking, Jesus Bu in the audience had already raised his pistol to aim at the newly placed target, and after taking a sip of beer, he pulled the trigger sharply.

Boom!

A gunshot rang out, but the target in the field was unscathed.

"Poof!" Jesus Bu had just made so many famous halls and attracted a lot of attention, but at this time, he missed the target, which made Edmund can't help but let out a sneer.

But as soon as Edmund's laughter ended, he saw Jesus Bu's fingers hook again and again, and in the middle of his breath, he fired five shots in succession, emptying the bullet bullets of the revolver, and all five shots fell into the middle of the target, and the difference in the distribution of bullet holes was no more than half a centimeter.

William clapped softly.

He is no longer a white-collar worker who has never touched the gun a few times in his previous life, although he is not proficient in shooting, but he also knows that it is not only the gunman himself who affects the result of firearm shooting, there are subtle differences between guns and bullets in the manufacturing process, and in the same firing environment, even if the same model of firearm, the trajectory will not be the same.

Not to mention the impact of the environment, time, etc. on the firearm itself, and Jesus Bu is holding an unfamiliar model of a new pistol, but after a test shot, he immediately finds the trajectory of the pistol, which is not only a matter of experience, it can be said to be talented.

This shooting competition was held in the name of a trading company under William's banner and actually presided over by Sherlock.

A large part of the reason why this trading company, which was named "Four Seas" by William, held the competition in such a small remote village was to see if the Jesus cloth recommended by Sherlock was really as powerful as the legend suggests, and on the other hand, because after several months of research and development, Danpier's weapons workshop finally tried to produce an experimental model of the revolver, and also wanted to take this opportunity to collect some weapon data and do some publicity for the launch of this new pistol in the East China Sea.

Now it seems that the experimental data does not need to be said much, but the first purpose has been achieved, this competition was initially for the contestants to compete with old-fashioned flintlock pistols, and then with new revolvers, in order to highlight the advantages of the new weapon, but in the first link, Jesus Bu showed the strength of crushing, plus his own marksmanship is known to everyone in the local area, so it didn't take long for the other players to abstain, making the game a one-man performance of Jesusbu.

William left behind the contents of the pirates in his busy schedule and went ashore alone to this somewhat remote village, seemingly wasting no time.

……

William took Edmund, Sherlock, and Danpier to the house of Jesus Bu under the pretext of giving prizes.

The sharpshooter's home was no different from the rest of the town's inhabitants, a small bungalow perched on a hillside, a small flower bed enclosed by a low fence, and chopped firewood piled up on the side of the bungalow.

Jesus Bu has a bold personality, and he is very arrogant, he dares to shoot while drinking in the arena in front of everyone, and naturally he will not be cautious because of the identity of William and others, although many people in the village said that the host of this competition is said to be a sea thief, Jesus Bu still generously invited a few people to his home, and also introduced his wife Bancina and his five-year-old son Usopp to a few people, and saw that it was getting late, so he directly left a few people for dinner.

Bancina is quite virtuous, when cooking, Jesus wanted to go into the kitchen to help, but she pushed out, even after William and the others sat down at the dinner table, they were busy pouring beer for a few people, and then they sat at the end of the dining table with Usopp in their arms, taking care of the child who had been curious to look at William and others to eat.

Bancina was beautiful, but she had a long nose that was unusual, and Usopp next to her had obviously inherited this, which looked inexplicably funny.

William, Sherlock, and Dampier were all old enough to control their gaze and politely look elsewhere, but Edmund was different, and involuntarily glanced at the noses of Bancina and Usopp during the feast, which made Jesus frown a little.

William patted Edmund on the shoulder, and the latter realized that he had behaved inappropriately and withdrew his gaze, William smiled apologetically at Jesus, and silently toasted a glass of wine, which was regarded as an apology for Edmund's behavior.

Jesus' face was a little pale, and he also raised his wine glass and gestured, took a large sip of beer, and then casually pointed the direction of the living room with his chin.

From the direction of several people, you can see a suitcase thrown on the floor of the living room, which contains the prize money of this competition, but it is thrown on the floor by Jesus Bu without care.

"Actually, I don't care much about the prize money, can you give me that pistol as a prize?" Jesus Bu asked, "I don't want the bonus." ”

"It's a bit tricky," Sherlock said with a smile after taking a sip of his beer, glancing at William, "This pistol is still an experimental type, and this time it's just to test some data and make improvements in the future, so there's no way to give it as a prize to the contestants." ”

Jesus Buyan looked disappointed when he heard this, compared to the old flintlock pistol, the revolver not only improved the ammunition capacity, this new pistol with improved firing and bullet structure, compared to the old pistol brought by the improvement is comprehensive.

As a gifted gunner, Jesus' understanding and intuition of firearms are not comparable to ordinary people, and he has already seen the excellence of this pistol after using it once.

In fact, Sherlock was not telling the truth, the revolver he took out this time was not that important at all, and now he was just playing some tricks at the behest of William.

"With all due respect, Jesus," said William, seeing Jesus' expression, "it is a waste of your shooting talent to be a farmer in such a village, and I want to invite you to my ship, and you deserve a bigger stage to display your talents." ”

(The detailed timeline of the red-haired ship on Jesus' cloth will be uploaded to the work when the author finds time, and the graphic version is uploaded to the WeChat public account "The author is in the middle", in short, the zero word of the theatrical version of the strong world linkage, when the redhead invited Jesus cloth to the ship, Jesus cloth was not on, because according to the time, Usopp had not been born at that time, and when Usopp and Luffy first mentioned their father, Usopp was shocked that Jesus cloth had joined the red-haired pirates, so Usopp and Bancina should not have seen redheads, The redhead has been waiting at Jesus' house, and the possibility of him being invited to the ship after giving birth is almost none, and when Merry tells the story of Usopp for Kya, she also said that Bencina died not long after Jesus went to sea, and Usopp was already sensible at that time, and considering that Bancina died of illness in the original book, and the mother and son did not think to find Jesus Cloth, nor did they see any news from Jesus Cloth, Jesus Cloth was likely to have been on the Great Voyage at that time. ）
