Chapter 298: Smoke

Smoker stood at the bow of the ship, and saw that the pirates on the opposite side slowed down at a long distance from his own ship, and felt a little strange, but the lieutenant of the branch base next to him changed his face: "Their shells have a long range...... they are going to open fire!" ”

As soon as the lieutenant's words fell, a cloud of fire and smoke came out of the bow of the pirate ship in the distance, the power of the bucky bomb, the lieutenant of the branch had already seen it, a single shot could collapse the fortress wall, ordinary ships could not withstand its ravages at all, even if they were not directly hit, they only hit the side, with their power, the waves set off were enough to overturn the boat.

The lieutenant was thinking that the end was coming, and before he could think about it, Smoker beside him had already jumped into the air in front of the boat almost at the same time as the fire was burning on the bow of the opposite ship, and stopped in front of the cannonball's path.

The lieutenant of the naval division opened his mouth wide, and the next moment, a deafening sound made him cover his ears tightly, and the shells exploded directly over the small boat, causing the small boat in which the navy was riding to shake with only the air wave and shock wave.

After the cannonball exploded, a cloud of orange-red flames and smoke appeared in mid-air, and Smoker's figure was directly engulfed in flames, and it seemed that there were no bones left in the explosion.

"Lieutenant Colonel Smoker," the lieutenant was about to cry, "why can't you think so much?" ”

On the pirate ship in the distance, the pirate captain who had been watching the movement here with a telescope, and Smoke, who took the initiative to hit the cannonball, was also dumbfounded, and asked his subordinates on the left and right in disbelief: "The people of the navy have been tortured and crazy by our behavior during this time?" ”

But the situation that followed really made the lieutenant of the naval branch and the captain of the pirate ship shocked, and when the fire gradually dissipated, the smoke in mid-air became more and more, and then condensed into a human figure.

"Nature-based Devil Fruit!" The pirate captain and the officers and soldiers of the branch base invariably came up with a term in their minds.

The celebrity of the East China Sea, Morgan William, is the Devil Fruit Ability of the Natural Department, and it is precisely because of the popularity of Morgan William, coupled with the popularity of some news, that the name "Devil Fruit" no longer becomes a legend in the East China Sea, and it also makes people know one of the types of Devil Fruits, the natural system.

"The power of this cannonball is really extraordinary." Smoker spat out the smoke, his lower body still in a state of elementalization, like a lamp spirit in a fairy tale, and it looked like his upper body was held up by a cloud of smoke, and he slowly fell into the boat before disarming the elementalization.

At this time, an officer from the headquarters handed over a gas mask with a tacit understanding.

After taking the mask, Smoker leaped forward, a large cloud of smoke erupted from his waist, and he rushed towards the pirate ship in the distance.

The captain of the pirate ship was shocked, and hurriedly shouted for his men to drive the boat and stay away from Smoker, the natural Devil Fruit is said to be invulnerable, and they also saw it just now, even the Bucky bullet hit head-on, they can't help Smoker, they can't be Smoker's opponent at all.

……

By the time the navy's small ships slowly approached the pirate ships, the battle here was over.

The pirates were killed and wounded in a coma, and the pirate captain was thrown on the deck with a lot of flowers, and Smoker sat directly on top of him, holding a bright red cannonball with a skull painted on it.

Smoker was still biting the cigar in his mouth, but he didn't seem to care at all whether the sparks of the cigar would cause any danger, and leaned his face close to the cannonball, observing it intently, and tossing it in his hand from time to time.

The pirate captain under Smoker was so frightened that he didn't dare to move at all, for fear that Smoker would miss and ignite the explosives.

When the officers and sailors of those branch bases got on board again, they looked at Smoker with completely different eyes, full of admiration.

"You go to the ammunition room and move all the ammunition with similar symbols on the boxes to our ship," Smoker picked up the bucky bullet and gestured to his men, "We need to send these pirate weapons to a few lieutenant generals." ”

Smoker knew very well that although his previous behavior of directly blocking the cannonball seemed to be very popular, in fact, he only relied on the characteristics of a natural fruit ability, which did not mean that this kind of bucky bomb was not a big threat.

On the contrary, after experiencing the power of one of these shells firsthand, Smoker was even more sure of its threat, and he knew very well that a different officer of his rank would not be able to resist the shells head-on like him.

After his subordinates were ordered to work and carry all their weapons to the navy ship, Smoker sent them all back to the ship, and then looked down at the pirate captain who was staring at the cannonball in his hand with a frightened face, smiled, and put the cannonball on the pirate captain's face.

Smoker pressed Bucky with one hand, picked up his cigar with the other, and flicked the ash onto Bucky.

Some soot fell down the cannonball on the pirate captain's face, causing him to scream in terror: "Take it off my head!" ”

Ignoring the pirate captain's shouting, Smoker asked, "How did William Morgan's men contact you, and where are they now?" ”

The pirate captain kept his mouth shut, so Smoker deliberately shook the bucky bomb pressed on the side of his head, took a lit cigar from his mouth, and gestured in front of him, threatening to press it on the bucky bomb to extinguish it.

"I say! I say! The pirate captain hurriedly shouted, "It was Sherlock, the manager of the Four Seas Trading Company and the Flash Gold Bank, who contacted us, and he also asked him to give me these weapons, and he forced me to carry out the plan to attack the naval base, I am innocent!" ”

Smoker rolled his eyes when he heard the last sentence, and then asked, "Where are Sherlock and his men now?" ”

"I don't know!" The pirate captain honestly explained, "I haven't seen them since I gave them the weapons to our captains and explained the plan to us. ”

Smoker's brows furrowed deeply, and he blurted out a bunch of questions: "He hasn't sent anyone to spy on you?" Don't worry about you going back? Also, why do you listen to him so much? As you should know, Morgan William has lost ground. ”

"We can't be ruthless," the pirate captain choked up, because of unwillingness and grievance, his eyes were a little red, and he looked a little pitiful, "All our money is controlled by William, I don't know where he hid it, if William can't get out, the net worth we have accumulated over the years of fighting at sea will be gone!" ”

Smoker was shocked in his heart: "What did you say? ”

The pirate captain couldn't hold back any longer, he howled and cried, snot and tears flowed out, and he didn't know if he was frightened by the bucky bullet attached to his head, or because he was too hurt by the thought of being taken away from his hard-earned money: "The net worth of dozens of our pirate groups is all stored in the flash gold bank, and Morgan William transferred all the money in the bank to a place that no one knows about in advance, Sherlock threatens us with this money, we dare not be disobedient!" ”

Naturally, the pirate captains were not all telling the truth, and they shirked a lot of responsibility, as if they were just poor people who were persecuted, but in fact, the reason why they attacked according to Sherlock's words was also because they coveted the benefits promised by Sherlock and feared that the navy would strengthen its control over the East China Sea.

However, Smoker has now lost the heart to catch the loophole in the pirate captain's words, and he has discovered a big problem.

"You mean, William Morgan's men haven't been following you all this time, and they haven't spent manpower and energy on you," Smoker removed the bucky bullet, stared down into the pirate captain's eyes, and asked word by word, "They are all free to move around in the East China Sea during this time?" ”
