Chapter Seventy-Four: Retreating?
Maud stood in the air in a volley.
The signature moon step technique made many of the pirates present who knew the Six Styles have a short second or two of messiness.
now
All the people in the Colosseum who came for the Devil Fruit,
Whether it's a pirate, a bounty hunter, or even a person from the underworld.
Their eyes were all focused on Maude.
More precisely, the Devil Fruit in Maude's hands.
"Bacardi. Hammond! That Devil Fruit is my thing! β
The angry voice of the angler Gliela was heard from the audience.
If you are cut off halfway, no one will feel good.
And it is also a legendary rare ancient Devil Fruit.
Gliera's lungs were about to explode.
Maud didn't even glance at Glilla, so she put away the empty crow and instead looked at the Devil Fruit in the crystal box up close in front of everyone.
The dark green ripples on the peel give a sense of vitality.
The three long, angular and pointed leaves on the top of the fruit vaguely reveal the subtlety of the ability type.
"It's really ancient words......
Maud whispered.
The two small and one large pointed long leaves instantly brought the image of a dinosaur to his mind.
Eating the fruit is an excellent way to prevent future incidents.
However, Maude's desire to eat the Devil Fruit is basically zero.
Now, he doesn't need Devil Fruits at all to improve his strength or increase his hunting efficiency.
Therefore, even if he wants to eat Devil Fruits, he must have two prerequisites.
One is that he must determine the type of Devil Fruit's ability, and he doesn't want to block his future on a Devil Fruit with unknown ability.
If he eats a garbage fruit, not only will he not be able to enhance his strength, but he will also have an additional weakness of Hailou Stone, so who will he cry to.
The second is that the upper limit and ability of the Devil Fruit must be worthy of him.
This qualitative need is not because he is arrogant, but because he is responsible for his own future.
If the Devil Fruit's ceiling isn't high, then he doesn't need it at all.
No one knew the thoughts that were flashing through Maude's mind at the moment.
No one thought that the person who took the Devil Fruit in front of everyone's eyes was still picking and choosing.
And the things he picks and chooses are the ones they want to eat in hundreds of bites.
Anyway, in order to prevent Maud from eating the Devil Fruit directly, they just want to knock Maude down quickly.
"Bang bang ......!"
Many of the pirates suddenly opened fire on Maude, who was in the air.
In this case, they don't care about the reason for shooting the first bird.
Knock Maud down first, and maybe there's a chance to grab the Devil Fruit.
And the scene is so chaotic, if you are still targeted by Maude, you can only be considered unlucky.
Someone took the lead in shooting, and all at once it triggered a group effect.
Lead bullets flew towards Maud one after another.
Facing the lead bullets carrying killing intent coming from all around, Maude's eyes flashed red, and she used the moon step freely, changing direction and moving in the air, flashing all the lead bullets that came at her.
Seeing that Maud was in the air, he could easily dodge such a dense number of bullets.
The pirates or bounty hunters who shot in the arena were all terrified, for fear that Maude would suddenly glance at him.
What should I do then?
Despite this, they kept pulling the trigger in their trepidation.
Worry and fear don't stop them from craving Devil Fruits.
"I won the Colosseum, the Devil Fruit...... It's mine! β
After two rounds of firefighting, an even more angry voice resounded throughout the audience.
The owner of the voice is Conan, the vice-captain of the Tooth Pirates, who won the Colosseum.
In terms of ownership alone, this Devil Fruit does belong to Conan.
However, in this case, who will talk to you about the law about ownership?
Maude followed the voice to look at Conan, who looked extremely ugly, and before he could react, he heard someone in the Colosseum mercilessly refute Conan's words.
"the Colosseum, whoever has the ability to grab it, that's who's!"
"Yes, if you really have the ability, then go and get it back?!"
The sound of fear that the world would not be chaotic, like thousands of thin needles, pierced Conan's nerves fiercely.
Damn it......
Conan cursed inwardly, his eyes red as he looked at Maude in the air.
Lao Tzu pulled down his face to fight a group of wild beasts, and also to please others, just to get this devil fruit today.
As a result, you're fine, you don't do anything, just wait to grab something!
Conan was furious.
It was difficult to vent the anger in his heart, and he was already bending his knees and accumulating strength, ready to jump up and pounce on Maude in the air.
For a moment, he seemed to have forgotten the fact that he was a pirate.
In the world of pirates, burning, killing and looting is the most normal thing, especially the fighting and looting between peers, which is a kind of relationship chain that cannot be bypassed.
"Conan, don't be impulsive."
On the side, Bottran, the captain of the Tooth Pirates, stopped Conan's irrational thoughts in time.
If this situation is pounced, not to mention whether Maude can be torn off, it is estimated that he will only be beaten into a sieve alive by the lead bullets coming from all directions.
You know, Maude's ease of dodging bullets looks very easy.
But if you want to replace them, it is estimated that it will crash in less than three seconds.
"Captain ......"
Conan's red eyes widened to look at Botron, who was holding his shoulder.
"Calm down, if your life is gone, there will be nothing."
Botron looked up at Maude, a chill brewing deep in his pupils.
ββ¦β¦β
Conan gritted his teeth.
At the end of the day, they still don't have the guts of Maude to expose themselves to all the guns.
That's where Maude's capital to get the Devil Fruit is.
If they had gone up, the Devil Fruit would have been obtained, but perhaps in the next moment, it would have been torn to pieces by the frenzied group of colleagues in the Colosseum.
"Shall we ...... Just looking at it? β
Conan was still not reconciled.
"How is that possible!"
The chill in Botron's eyes suddenly skyrocketed, and he took out the flintlock pistol tied to the waistband of his trousers, and sneered: "No one can get out of this situation, not even Bacardi. Maude, not either!! β
"Walk away?"
Maud stepped through the air, slashed through the air with a thunderous trajectory, and in an instant came to Bottron, who had just pulled out his gun.
It's ...... fast!
Botron's pupils shrank sharply.
Maude's high-speed displacement caused the dense gunfire in the Colosseum to pause.
Immediately after, the many guns that had been clenching Maude fell sharply from the air and swept in the direction where Maude and Botrand were.
The rain of bullets came from behind, but Maud was unmoved, and looked at Botron in front of him with a slight flirtatious smile.
"Fight from the beginning...... I didn't think about returning. β
Mordhu slashed at Botron, who was tense all over.
The sword flashed away, and an arc of blood arrows splashed in midair.
Bottron, whose chest was stained with blood, was pulled back by Conan, who had been transformed into a man and beast.
That crucial rush saved Bottron from serious injury.
Maud did not pursue, but turned around, swung a thousand birds, and laid a dark blue knife net in front of him, cutting off all the lead bullets that had been fired.
Clickββ!
The sound of gunfire slowly faded away, replaced by the hollow sound of empty bullets.
...... all blocked?
The gunmen who were trying to gather fire to kill Maude looked into Maude's eyes as if they were looking at a monster.
"Oops, Bacardi. Maude, if you know each other, hand over the Devil Fruit! β
After a brief pause in the gunfire, the thoughts of the Devil Fruit would not stop.
