Chapter 7: Insurgent and Sneak Attack (Revision)
Hawkeye stood quietly on the deck with his knife in hand, the yellow sand dancing around him, and the bitter wind blew his hair flying. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe dust seems to be blown by the wind, and it seems to be manipulated by someone, interfering with Hawkeye's eyes all the time, and constantly trying to attack his eyes. However, Hawkeye was never disturbed, as if there was a protective cover, and the sand flew towards his eyes, but it was always blocked by an inexplicable force. At the same time, Hawkeye stood still like a statue, not even blinking.
Hawkeye's appearance undoubtedly exceeded Crockdahl's expectations, and under the static braking, he was instantly passive. Hidden in the wind and sand, but did not find a flaw for half a day, the rash attack, but it is likely to be used by Hawkeye, and then he will be unlucky. Thinking of this, he felt a faint pain in his left arm again.
Just now, Crockdahl couldn't help but launch a tentative sneak attack, but Hawkeye seized the opportunity to slash his left arm, if he hadn't been alert and blocked it with the golden hook in his left hand, maybe he would have been seriously injured, maybe it would have been broken. He didn't have any doubts about Hawkeye's knife.
The left arm was only cut through a layer of skin by the sword qi, which was actually Crockdahl's luck.
Hawkeye is actually very helpless, although the armed color domineering can hurt the body of the natural ability, but the incarnation of the wind and sand Crockdahl is impossible for him to capture. Crockdahl was already good at concealing his tracks, and at this time, he didn't show the slightest breath, so he couldn't determine Crockdahl's location.
Originally, according to his own calculations, the counterattack that had just seen the opportunity should be rewarding, but after all, there was a slight delay in the transition from the sneak attacker to the predator, and at the same time, he didn't expect Crockdahl to be so cautious, and the attack was actually blocked. Although he didn't know that he had actually injured Crockdahl's left arm with the knife just now, he wouldn't be happy even if he knew. Because, the failure of that knife is destined to have such a chance again, and it is difficult.
With Crockdahl's prudence, he will inevitably be more cautious, not absolutely sure, and will definitely not attack again.
Hawkeye thought about it, this is indeed feasible, although it is possible to really be used by Crockdahl, but it is also possible to turn things around, and the probability of 50% is enough for him to gamble. At the same time, for this battle, it is far from the refreshing of fighting a swordsman like the red-haired Shanks, and fighting a natural powerhouse is troublesome. Especially, the object is the guy Crockdahl.
I knew that I wouldn't see the hunting heart, trouble!
Hawkeye couldn't help but feel a little remorseful, although the excuse to fight Crockdahl was because of the other party's provocation, but in fact he was bored. As a person who loves to fight, when he sees an opponent of the same grade as himself, he can't help but launch an invitation to fight. But who would have thought, this battle is even more boring than the challenge of the weakling.
Crockdahl like this is destined to not be a truly top-level powerhouse......
Hawkeye defines what he perceives as Crockdahl's behavior.
"Hawkeye...... You're really embarrassed...... This is the strength of the world's No. 1 swordsman...... I really admire it......" Crockdahl's voice drifted in the dust, and it was impossible to tell where it came from.
"Next...... Nape...... Chest...... Abdomen...... Lumbar ...... Where to start, hehe......" said slowly in a deep voice, and the pressure in the field was even greater.
Hawkeye was unmoved by Crockdahl's words, still like a mountain, let the wind and sand blow by.
Crockdahl's nickname is "Sand Crocodile", and crocodile's attack is the art of lurking. Lurking around the prey, when the prey shows a flaw, it can instantly burst out with the power to deter any creature, precise and effective. At this point, Hawkeye is his prey.
As a hunter, Crockdahl is undoubtedly successful. However, even the best hunter will always miscalculate one day.
Crockdahl had been quietly lurking in the dust around Hawkeye, waiting for an opportunity to attack. During this period, Hawkeye also showed flaws several times, but he always gave up when he was about to shoot, and he would not act without the certainty of a one-hit kill.
The place where they stood was a battleship of the previous Creek Pirates, and when Hawkeye destroyed the Creek Pirates, although they survived in the end, they also leaked a hole, and water continued to pour into it. The two men fought, forgetting about it for a while, but as the water poured more and more, the hull of the ship gradually sank.
Suddenly, the hull of the ship shook violently because of the sinking, and Hawkeye didn't seem to expect such a thing to happen, and his body shook with the hull for a while. Although he quickly adjusted his balance, it was a bright spot for Crockdahl......
Suddenly, almost close to Hawkeye's body, a desert blade appeared out of thin air. The Desert Blade, which is almost close to its body, is not as powerful as Hawkeye has faced before, the sand blade is faster, the amplitude is higher, and it is also sharper.
Taking advantage of the sneak attack, Hawkeye did not completely avoid it, and although the black knife in his hand was blocked, it was still cut by the Desert Blade in his side, and Hawkeye's blood flowed out for the first time.
Although he managed to hurt Hawkeye, Crockdahl felt a little uneasy in his heart. However, now that the attack has been launched, even if it is uneasy, it can only be forced to go up. The golden hook swung towards Hawkeye with a gust of wind. Although he is an ability, he also has a certain melee ability.
The two were separated in an instant, and between the lightning and flint, Crockdahl's golden hook and Hawkeye's black knife collided several times, and in these collisions, Crockdahl suffered a big loss. He finally knew what that uneasy feeling was, how could he reveal such a big flaw at the level of Eagle Eye?
However, Hawkeye didn't give Crockdahl time to reflect at all, and seized this opportunity to take advantage of the situation and attack Crockdahl, who had lost his elementalization because of the attack. In terms of melee ability, Crockdahl is indeed a few streets away from Hawkeye, and he is not an opponent at all.
Hawkeye's counterattack left Crockdahl embarrassed and tired to deal with. In desperation, he fought with a knife in the chest and abdomen, although he was injured, he also gathered all his strength, and suddenly fought hard with a golden hook and a black knife. At the moment of collision, Crockdahl jumped backwards with the help of his strength, and at the same time, the ability of elementalization was also activated.
Although the ability to elementalize is strong, it may be because of Crockdahl's lack of cultivation level, he can't attack when he is elementalized. At the same time, if he wanted to elementalize, the time it would take, although extremely short, seemed much slower under Hawkeye's extraordinary speed.
At the same time as the elementalization ability was activated, Krokdahl also laid multiple defensive measures in a row. Then he saw a wall of sand suddenly rise from the ground, blocking him and Hawkeye.
collided with the golden hook that Crockdahl swung with all his might, Rao is Hawkeye, and was also bounced away for a distance. As soon as he landed, his toes turned sharply, and he swung his knife again. The deck on which he landed was kicked out of a pit by his sudden burst of force, and the planks cracked and sawdust flew everywhere.
However, when he turned back, walls of sand suddenly appeared, blocking his path.
"Hmph!" snorted coldly, and the eagle-eyed black knife swung out violently.
With his attack, the black knife turned into a phantom in Hawkeye's hand, and countless sword qi flew out, slashing at the wall of sand that kept appearing. Between the countless sword qi flying, the sand walls that suddenly appeared flew wildly, shattering under the black knife, and the eagle eye could be said to have rushed through these obstacles like a bamboo.
But even so, the many walls of sand still managed to slow down the progress of the eagle's eyes. And that's just enough time!
By the time Hawkeye had finally broken through the last barrier of the sand wall, Crockdahl's elementalization ability had already been activated.
"Black Knife, Instant Slash!" The black knife in Hawkeye's hand almost turned into a streamer, and slashed towards Crockdahl in a teleportation.
However, no matter how fast Hawkeye was and how sharp the knife was, it still missed, and was turned into sand by Crockdahl to dodge. Hawkeye, who failed to attack, didn't look back, and thrust his backhand knife back, just in the chest of Crockdahl, who appeared to attack. However, no blood flowed out, and "Krokdal" instantly scattered into yellow sand.
The two consecutive attacks were defused by Crockdahl, and the corners of Hawkeye's eyebrows couldn't help but rise. His knife is armed with a domineering color, but there is only one possibility that he didn't really hit it, and that is simply a puppet formed by Crockdahl's manipulation of the sand, like a puppet of manipulation.
Hawkeye recognizes Crockdahl's qualifications and abilities, but he can't help but feel sorry that Crockdahl is indeed too cautious, and people who are too cautious are destined not to become real strong. Because such a person does not have the heart of a strong man!
Hawkeye has absolute confidence in his own knife, so he is a strong man.
At this time, Crockdahl, who was hidden in the dust, felt terrified, and if he made any mistake in any link, it could lead to death. Although the World Government has stipulated that the Seven Martial Seas are not to be attacked and killed, and this time they are just a battle of interest, he doesn't mind letting Hawkeye disappear into this world if he has the chance.
At the same time, he also understands that Hawkeye won't mind doing that.
To put it bluntly, they are actually the same kind of people.
They are all pirates.
