Chapter 32: Francis

The little imp named Francis really came to look for Thor the next day, and he came alone to stand on the ghost boat and shivered with excitement and fear.

The pirates, who had been dealing with the Navy or the Deadly Men for many years, looked at the Francis.

"Little ghost, you weren't scared to pee your pants, were you?"

A one-eyed pirate sat on the staircase that looked like the third floor, gulping on spirits, somewhat drunk.

He was one of the first old men to follow Thor and was originally a handsome man who, in the first battle leading into the Great Voyage, was shot in the left eye by a dart enemy who was making a dart. He pulled it out, pulled it out along with his eyeballs, cut off the connected nerves with a knife, threw it on the ground, and still killed people with a knife until he was stabbed several times and fell to the ground unconscious.

On this ship, this man who is not very capable but speaks extremely well is the most popular.

Chloe's main "adversary" on this ship was him.

"Brother Qingyuan, I heard that this kid wants to see the Ghost King."

A scantily clad female pirate threw two winks at Francis, but the boy was only interested in looking at the big ship he had seen in his life.

"Little ghost, my eldest brother is talking to you!"

There's a fat pirate who kicks Francis in the ass.

He was startled, then looked at the one-eyed pirate.

A knife flew at him, and then stabbed firmly in front of his toes, almost scaring him silly.

"According to the rules of our pirates, if you want to see the captain, you have to have the ability to walk in front of him. This knife is for you, as long as you can kill from here to the cherry blossom courtyard, Lao Tzu will help you knock on the door. ”

Francis looked at the one-eyed pirate and trembled with fear.

This distance, which is only a few tens of meters, is like Huangquan Road in his eyes.

"What? Can't? If you don't dare, go home and find your mother to feed. ”

The one-eyed pirate laughed.

"Little ghost, go home and find your mother to feed."

"I guess I'm scared to pee my pants. Hahahaha......"

The pirates in the audience burst out laughing.

"When you meet our king, you can't do it without some skills."

…………

Laughter and shrill voices came from all directions.

His face was flushed, and Francis, who was almost on the verge of collapse in his heart, kept retreating in fear.

didn't turn around and run off the boat directly, it was already the limit.

"If you want to become a pirate, if you don't even have the courage to take up arms and face the enemy, then you might as well go home."

A faint voice came from behind him.

Francis turned his head abruptly and saw a man sitting at the bow of the boat with a broken knife.

The man sat alone, his eyes drifting to the sea, not even looking at him.

The commotion around me seemed to be quieter, but it was only a little smaller.

Can you imagine that fear?

How can real fear be described by the word fear?

That kind of legs are weak, can't move forward and can't, want to talk but can't open your mouth. Your mind is blank, your heart is beating so fast that you are breathing like a person who has fallen into water.

That's the case with Francis.

The man never opened his mouth again, without even looking at him.

"Pirates are not children, so let's go home if you don't have enlightenment."

The one-eyed pirates crossed their arms and spoke coldly.

Francis, who had been standing there for more than ten minutes, bit his lip and then took several big breaths before finally stepping away from his trembling legs.

"Go home. Coward. ”

The pirates burst into laughter.

Soon, the pirates couldn't laugh anymore. The imp took a minute, walked ten steps, and pulled out the knife with all his might.

The atmosphere on the boat was suddenly a little awkward, and a little ghost who they thought was afraid to hold a knife picked up a knife.

The one-eyed pirate's expression is unpredictable, sometimes iron blue, sometimes red.

In fact, it was not only him, but most of the people around him.

It's not that I think that the little ghost can really kill it, but that the little ghost's actions make them a little unable to get off the stage.

"What to do? Do you want to do it, big brother? ”

Someone asked in a low voice.

There is a rule on the ship of the Hyakki Pirates, if the other party picks up a weapon, then, even a three-year-old child, will become an enemy.

In the face of the enemy, the people on board are evil spirits.

Anyway, when the two fight, there is always one who wants to turn into a ghost.

Without saying a word, the one-eyed pirate silently drew his sword.

Seeing his move, the pirates drew their swords.

There is no reason for people to see their own king casually.

"Let him come up."

Lin stood at the door of the cherry blossom courtyard and looked at the Francis Road.

Everyone, including Francis, breathed a sigh of relief.

The courage to hold a knife is impressive to all pirates, but once you take a step forward, the pain of flesh and skin is indispensable.

Under the tree in the cherry blossom courtyard, Thor in a red coat is playing chess with Chloe.

He had lost three in a row, and he reluctantly pushed the chessboard: "I lost." ”

Chloe smiled slightly, didn't say much, just lowered his head to put away the chessboard, and then when he got up, he glanced at Francis, who was standing at the door at a loss.

"Very good, courage is commendable." Thor beckoned him to come over.

Then put the food that Morning Dew had just brought over between the two of them.

"Feel free to eat, it's delicious, and I'll promise your request after eating."

Thor took a piece of rice ball and stuffed it in his mouth.

Francis, who had been frightened just now, opened his mouth, and then took a piece and put it in his mouth.

Thor put his hand on his left shoulder and said, "A man's courage is not just for fighting enemies. ”

Francis shuddered and looked up at Thor.

Thor smiled, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Let's go." ”

After speaking, he took the lead and walked towards the door.

"I'll go with you."

Lynn followed, but Thor shook his head.

Francis, who was stunned for a long time, bit his lip stubbornly, then picked up Thor's long knife and quickly chased in the direction where Thor left.

Francis and Saul walked side by side, his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.

Thor suddenly laughed, "I used to laugh at a little ghost for being a fool, but now I can't imagine that I have become a fool again." ”

Thor remembered Luffy the Straw Hat.

"Lord Oni, I'm ............"

Thor shook his head, motioning for Francis not to say anything, and said, "I know, I don't blame you. ”

Thor untied the half-pot of wine that was left, took a sip of wine and said, "Right and wrong, black and white are not just superficial phenomena, and I am not just here for you today." But I hope you remember that if a person, a man, is too weak, his destiny will always be in the hands of others. ”

Francis stopped, head bowed.

Thor also stopped, turned around, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?" ”

Francis, who had already burst into tears, suddenly knelt on the ground and wept bitterly, "I'm sorry, Lord Oni, I'm sorry......"

Thor sighed, walked over and crouched in front of Francis, patted him on the shoulder, and whispered, "It's okay." ”

Francis fainted, and Thor took off his trench coat over him, then picked up the long knife in his hand and looked at the figures who had been waiting for a long time.

said lightly, "Your methods are disappointing." ”

The oncoming five people stopped twenty or thirty meters away from Thor, and a tall and thin man wearing a black robe and a white maskless mask smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, as long as it can attract you, no matter how low-level the plan is, it is a good plan." I just didn't expect that you would fall for such a trick. ”

Thor, who had already seen through the other party's strategy but still took the initiative to enter the game, unbuttoned the neckline twice, and felt that his neck and even breathing were much easier.

"Do you think I'm really just concerned about this little ghost and his mother's life?"

Thor sneered.

Although he didn't know the true identities of these people, he already knew that the other party had caught Francis's mother and used him to lure Thor into the bait.

As for why this and Sol Su's unmasked Francis.

Probably because this little imp's father was once a member of the Hyakki Pirates, but he was killed by Thor in the battle with Doflamingo.

When this little imp had just met Thor yesterday, he noticed that the two of them looked strikingly similar.

But Saul didn't know at the time that the other party would be used.

It was only after the two separated that the assassin in charge of tracking suddenly lost contact that caught Thor's attention.

Then, when he came on board today, Morning Dew had already looked inside him with the fruit ability.

And Thor, who knew all this, still chose to follow him to "send him to death".

"It's not a scruple, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that you're going to die."

Someone said lightly.

The five people who were besieged this time, in addition to the one with the mask, there was also one that also made Thor secretly wary.

A blind man with a knife.

Looking at the blind swordsman with goggles, Thor unconsciously remembered the blind gambler he met in the Chambord Islands.

It's just that the two are far apart.

Thor untied the flask, drank the rest of the wine in one go, and then burped without any image, and said, "There is a guy who stinks all day long, and there are many people who can kill me, and in front of him, I can't say anything more for the time being......"

Thor smashed the flask at the blind swordsman, and the figure had passed through several people to the front of the masked man, and laughed sharply, "You really think anyone can kill me?? ”

Slash it down with one sword, and cut the thing in front of you in half at the same time as the blind swordsman!

The blind swordsman who had cut the flask in half appeared in front of Thor in an instant, and stabbed out with a sword, piercing through an afterimage.

Thul's half-swung long knife in mid-air was wrapped around a chain with a hooked scythe, and the man grabbed it, undoing Thul's attack.

Thor had to step on his toes in the void, and with the help of it, a whipleg collided with the long leg of the long-legged man leaping high in front of him.

Rao attached an armed color domineering, or made Thor's right leg numb.

With another pat of his left foot, he dodged a blow from the masked man, and the figure appeared on the ground, and Thor frowned at the blind swordsman who had forced the blind swordsman back with a single sword.

"Weird?"

The figure of the masked man also fell to the ground.

"It's really strange, I just cut it. It's not a doppelganger. ”

Thor stared at the man and glanced at the ground, there was no body, so he was sure it wasn't a stand-in.

"Strange? Come on, try to chop me again. ”

The masked man spread his hands and smiled.

A red crescent slash flew directly with Thor who was unceremoniously with him, slashing him in the chest, and seeing him split in half with his own eyes.

Then, under Thor's shocked gaze, that guy slowly recovered, just like a natural ability.

"Hey, hey, scared, aren't you?"

A man crouching on a branch licks his fingers like sharp claws.

Unlike ordinary people, his eyes are vertical, like beasts.

"What are you talking nonsense with him? Kill him directly! ”

The man with the hook and sickle chain cursed angrily and rushed towards Thor first.

He was joined by a man who was faster than him, the man with the claws, who ran like a beast on his hands and feet on the ground, and was extremely fast.

Behind, the long-legged man stretched out his two-meter-long legs and rushed towards Thor.

Thor, who was fighting the long-legged clan for the first time, had a ridiculous thought in his head, that guy's legs are so long and thin, so he doesn't worry about being kicked off?

It has been surrounded on all sides, and the people here must cooperate with the siege on weekdays.

The long knife was pulled by the hook and sickle again, and the man smiled with a mouthful of big yellow teeth.

Then the long-legged man spun in the air and slashed at Thor's head, nearly touching Thor's forehead.

At the same time, the clawed man made a move of the black tiger to dig out the heart, directly through Thor's chest.

Then, his cruel smile turned into horror in an instant.

Thor grabbed his hand, not giving him a chance to pull it out, and looked up with a big smile.

Immediately afterward, Thor's whole body turned into water. The water turned into a water balloon and trapped the guy inside.

The sudden change stunned those present.

"!! above"

The blind swordsman shouted.

Thor didn't give them much chance to react, shooting a line of water out of his mouth.

"Be careful!!

The masked man screamed, and the waterline swept through the crowd.

The water balloon was cut in half, killing the clawed man in an instant.

The man with the hook and sickle suddenly looked like a great enemy.

The elusive Thor had somehow been standing close to him.

"I got the first shot."

An eerie voice came from the mouth of the Ghost King, and the man who was good at medium and long-range support was approached by Thor who was invincible.

If you want to say whose fist is the most desirable for Saul, the first to recommend Karp.

A pair of iron fists are almost invincible.

Although Thor's iron fist is not as good as Karp, once he gets close to him first, even if Karp comes in person, before he stops with all his strength, you Karp will give me an honest defense.

The two fists have been entangled with armed domineering, and a punch hit the man's chest, and the opponent instantly flew upside down dozens of meters.

The ground under his feet instantly cracked and collapsed, and the long-legged man fell from the sky with one foot but returned in vain.

Thor, who was as fast as lightning, had already made contact with the hooked and sickle man who flew out upside down, and then he shook all over, and his momentum was as majestic as thunder.

In this world, if you want to talk about the pirate who punches the fastest, Luffy, that kid can count punches in a second with the blessing of the fruit's ability.

And second only to Luffy is Thor, who has been practicing for ten years.

Only when it is fast enough that the opponent cannot fight back, can you be invincible.

Punch after punch, as fast as thunder, each punch in the opponent's chest can make a hole in the opponent's back.

This is the punch power has come out of the body.

The Hook Scythe Man was beaten upside down by Thor with his fists all the way until a hundred meters later, when his back touched a large tree.

After five punches, the big tree behind the man with a hook and sickle that was already a pulp in his chest cavity fell, and the break was like cotton wool.

All this is long, but in fact it is extremely fast.

As soon as Thor's feet hit the ground, the masked man and the blind swordsman approached at the same time, one left and one right.

Facing this blind swordsman who was much worse than Yu Kui in terms of swordsmanship and concealment, Thor only stretched out one finger, blocked the opponent's sword, and then snapped his finger.

Then, a kick defuses the masked man's wrist.

"General!!"

The long-legged man grinned and lunged at Thor with the middle door wide open.
