Chapter 22: Awakening
"Whew! Call! Billy gasped and staggered to his feet, the surface of his body crusted into a scab from the bursting capillaries, and the blood seeped out from the capillaries, making it look red and black.
Blood flowed from the wound on his forehead and into Billy's right eye, and the smiling fat man became hideous and terrifying, and anyone who knew it would have been surprised to see it.
"Dead?" Billy wondered.
The dust was falling, and a figure was faintly visible in the earthy yellow dust, and when Billy saw the people on the field, the horror immediately grabbed his heart.
"No, it can't be! How can it be? How are you still alive? The fat on his face trembled uncontrollably, and Billy's voice began to tremble.
The dust falls. In Billy's trick center, Lu Qi crossed his arms to protect his head, the clothes on his body were tattered from the attack of the sword qi, and the wounds on his body cut by the sword qi also shed a lot of blood.
Obviously, Billy's attack taught the careless Luqi a lesson, and he would never have been hurt to this extent if he hadn't fought in a playful manner.
Slowly lowering his arm, Luki's face was unfazed, still looking at Billy with indifferent eyes.
"Life Returned!"
The wounds on Luqi's body were quickly squeezed by the muscles, and no more blood flowed out, and he could inject consciousness into any part of his body after learning the Six Forms, allowing him to control it at will.
"Can you tell me about it? What am I not up to your standards for? As if knowing that death was near, Billy calmed down and asked Luki.
"Even though your attacks are strong enough to break through my iron, I still have that to say about you, you're too slow. As an agent, you must have the ability to evacuate quickly so that you can avoid being captured alive and revealing secrets. So, you don't qualify. Luci said as he walked, and soon came to Billy's side.
"Really? It turns out that I am so weak. Billy asked rhetorically, but there was a hint of enlightenment in his tone.
He once regarded the sword as everything, and even without a master, he comprehended the sword moves from his own physical arts. I thought that I could surpass others in this way, but I didn't expect that I neglected other aspects of training, and eventually formed a huge flaw.
Watching Luci raise his finger, Billy seemed to give up on resistance and stood in distraction.
"That's weird! I don't want to die here! His blank eyes suddenly turned vicious, and Billy swung his broken sword at Luqi with the last of his strength.
Dodging Billy's desperate counterattack at breakneck speed, Luki looped around his back.
"Finger gun!"
The slender index finger pierced Billy's heart, and Luki leaned into Billy's ear and whispered, "You're too slow!" ”
The sharp pain in his chest made Billy almost unable to think, and the destruction of his heart caused him to lose his strength little by little, and his blurred vision announced his end.
At this deathbed, Billy's world was left in darkness.
"I'm dead!"
......
Marin Vando
Ray hurried back home after getting inspiration, and when he saw that Zefa's room was still lit, he kicked the door open and rushed in regardless of what Zefa was doing.
"Dad, I just had an idea." Ray had some difficulty pressing the excitement in his patience.
Looking at his son speechlessly, Zefa suddenly remembered the days when Ray had not been found, how free and quiet it was at that time, but unfortunately the days of living alone were gone.
People are like this, they will deepen their longing for their loved ones after not seeing each other for a long time, but after they get together again, they will start to find fault with this and that.
"What's wrong again?" Zefa put down the papers in his hand and rubbed his tired eyes.
"It's a meteorological weapon, maybe I can develop a weapon that can be used in real combat." Ray pressed his hands on Zefa's table, leaned over and said excitedly.
"Didn't you say you couldn't find your way yet? How did you suddenly have a plan? Zefa took off his glasses and wiped them, and looked at Ray with some confusion.
Zefa had never heard of any meteorological weapons in his years in the Navy, which had always used cannons and muskets, and although he believed that his son would develop them sooner or later, it was a little faster than he expected.
"Do you remember what I told you about the Kingdom of Bourbon Harrow? The country was close to destruction because of a flower that could attract clouds and snow, and out of curiosity, I didn't destroy the flowers but sealed them and brought them back. I think maybe we can develop meteorological weapons by using this flower. Ray quickly said what he envisioned.
Touching his chin and pondering what Ray said, Zefa fell silent.
"Lei, if you tell me these words, I can't help you, and you professionals still have to solve professional problems. But I still have one piece of advice: don't rush it. ”
He Zefa's serious eyes met for a long time, and Lei woke up from the excitement.
"I see, Dad. It's not too early, I'll go back to sleep first, and you can rest early. Lei realized that he was happy too early, and said goodbye a little depressed.
"If you have any problems, you might as well consult with Katarina, she is a very good scholar." When Lei was about to leave the door, Zefa said again.
Nothing happened overnight.
The next day, Ray took advantage of the good hours of the morning to go to the Navy's temporary prison for pirates and brought Peter out of prison.
Although he lived the life of a prisoner, Peter was not mistreated, because he knew that the navy rarely killed prisoners, so he was very relieved to live in prison, and his face was much more ruddy because of the thigh injury before.
"Hey! Navy! What did you bring me out for? Peter, who had been brought out early in the morning, had not yet woken up, and yelled at Ray with an impatient expression.
Perhaps it was because in the Navy Headquarters, Peter thought that Ray did not dare to do anything to him, and his words were presumptuous.
"You know what? Many pirates escaped because of their fruit abilities. If they were killed, their fruits would reappear somewhere in the world, and it would be troublesome if they were eaten by pirates, so the navy imprisoned them all. Ray led Peter to the middle of nowhere, and spoke to himself in a tone that made Peter creepy.
"You would have been imprisoned in Advance City, but how could I possibly let you go there! I've got a great way to die for you. Sneering at Peter, Ray let go of Peter's restraints. Peter, who came to his senses, was horrified by Ray's words and actions, and from his point of view, Ray seemed to be wrapped in a malicious black aura all over his body.
While Peter's mind was in turmoil, Ray kicked Peter into the sea.
For those who are capable (except for the fishmen), the inability to touch the sea combined with unbearable suffocation is the most painful way to die for a pirate who is supreme with force.
Seeing that Peter sank to the bottom of the ocean without even struggling, Ray raised his middle finger to the surface of the sea and turned away.
