West.

Island of Augs.

In the middle of the street, Captain Lodes, who was carrying a huge machete on his shoulder, looked at a box of treasure placed in front of him, and asked several pirates under his command:

"Is all the treasure here?"

"That's pretty much it!"

"Good! Let's go! ”

Lodes nodded in satisfaction, and beckoned to the pirates under his command, telling them to pick up the treasure chest, and then plan to leave the island.

However.

They hadn't waited for a few steps to see a young man in a fur hat appear at the end of the street.

The young man had a pistol pinned to his left waist, a short sword hanging from his right waist, and a yellowed piece of paper in his hand.

"Where did the imp come from?"

Lodes was slightly stunned, the civilians on this island had already been ransacked by them, and they didn't dare to go out of the frightened door, and the young man in front of him didn't know where they came from, and they dared to stand in front of them, did they still want to stop them?

The pirates under his command were also slightly stunned, but they all laughed, and someone flicked his wrist and took out a gun and aimed it directly at the young man at the end of the street.

"Hey! Boy, if you don't want to die, get out of the way! ”

The young man was pointed at the gun, but he did not raise his head in a hurry, and did not look at the gun pointed at him, but looked directly at the captain of the group of pirates, Lodes.

"There's a bounty of sixteen million Bailey, 'machete' Lodes?"

"You kid has a bit of eyesight, get out of here while Lao Tzu is not angry!"

Lodes's chin was slightly raised, revealing a hint of pride, for pirates, they all hope that they have an extremely high bounty, and the bounty of sixteen million Bailey is not low, which is also what he has always been very proud of.

"It's good that you didn't recognize the wrong person."

The young man nodded, threw the paper in his hand lightly, and said, "Then, I will accept the sixteen million Bailey's head." ”

Bang! Bang! Bang!!

Almost as soon as the words fell, the young man suddenly pulled out the pistol on his waist at a very fast speed, and fired six shots at Lodes and the others, emptying the bullets.

Many pirates obviously didn't expect that the young man in front of them would dare to take the initiative in the face of so many of them, and the speed was so fast!

Six gunshots rang out, and five people fell to the ground!

The only shot that missed was the one that was fired at Lodes, which was blocked by Lodes with a huge machete on his shoulder.

At this time, the paper that was thrown away by the young man also slowly fell to the ground, and it was a reward order, and the wanted person on it was none other than the 'machete' Lodes!

Not far away.

Although Lordus blocked the young man's shot, he was too late to stop it, and he watched as all five of his men were knocked down, and his face showed a look of rage.

"You...... Damn it!! ”

He roared angrily, waved the machete in his hand, and rushed forward towards the young man, the huge machete slashed down, and the strong wind alone already gave people the feeling that they were about to be split in half with a single sword.

However, in the face of Lordus's knife, the young man did not panic, he put away the pistol in a hurry, and then put his hands together in front of him, and directly squeezed the machete.

"Look for death!"

Seeing this, Lodes sneered, his machete is not only huge, but also made of very special material, hard and extremely heavy at the same time, ordinary people may not be able to stand even if they hold a sword, the young man in front of him actually dares to take the knife with his bare hands, he really doesn't know whether he is alive or dead.

But.

Almost as soon as the young man's palm touched the blade, Lordus's face changed, as a strange force suddenly enveloped the entire machete.

Click! Click!!

Before the huge machete could be cut down, it directly spiraled and twisted under the action of that strange force, turning into a ball of twisted flowers!

Immediately afterward, that power continued to spread upward, enveloping Lordus's hands in a horrified gaze.

Click!

Lodes let out an earth-shattering scream, and the machete, which had been twisted into a twisted flower, was accompanied by blood, and some twisted and distorted pieces of flesh and bones were scattered to the ground.

"You...... You ......"

Lodes fell to the ground and looked at the young man in front of him with a frightened expression, "You are a pirate hunter, Ghost Hand Rhodes!" ”

"Guessed right, unfortunately there is no prize."

Rhodes smiled, drew the short sword hanging from his waist, stepped forward, and swept the sword with a sword, and a head flew into the sky with blood.

At the same time.

A crisp electronic sound rang in Rhodes' ears.

"Sixteen million Bailey, 'Machete' Lodes, have completed the hunt, received a reward, 45 talent proficiency points, 1 free talent talent point."

Hearing the electronic sound in his ears, Rhodes' face showed a touch of joy.

"The first time you hunt a pirate with a bounty of 16 million, the reward is really rich, and you can even get free talent points."

He used to be an intern in another world, and he came to the One Piece world a year ago inexplicably, and he also had a talent system in his head, and hunting the pirates who were bountied could get talent proficiency and freedom talent points.

With this talent system, he has been quite successful in the past year, and now even the pirates with a bounty of 16 million Bailey can easily deal with it.

Rhodes' mind moved.

Three translucent and strange trees that only he could see appeared in front of him, and at the top of the canopy there were three names, Life, Universal, and Battle.

Life talents, including sailing, cooking, music, and other kinds of messy talents, Rhodes has only ordered a little sailing at the moment.

The general talent is strengthened, agility strengthened, and physical strengthened, plus running, jumping, flexibility and other sub-items.

Activating a small talent requires one free talent point, and activating a major talent requires two free talent points, and Rhodes currently only activates one major talent for agility enhancement.

The final combat talent has always been Rhodes' current specialization.

After clicking on the combat talent, the translucent tree was enlarged, and the trunk on it turned into branches, most of which were gray and dark, and only a few were golden.

The golden color is the talent that has been activated, and the gray color is the talent that has not been activated.

At present, Rhodes has only activated three talents: firearm shooting, melee combat, and twisted fruit, and the proficiency of these three talents is marked separately.

Firearms shooting: 50

Melee combat: 80

Twisted Fruit: 50

Among them, the two talents of firearm shooting and melee combat, with a proficiency level of 50 points, are proficient, 100 points are mastery, and the full value is 200 points.

"You don't need to point the gun shooting anymore, the mastery level is enough, first point the melee combat to the mastery level."
