Chapter 129. sniper
Because of Sucrose's personal request, the monster family did not set off immediately after gathering the supplies, but stayed for an extra week.
"Big Brother Kazan.. Have you ever heard of Jesus Cloth? β
Kazan sat in a forest as usual and watched Ajin and Tiga train, but this time there was Monet next to him, because the weather was getting hotter and hotter, so he used Monet's humanoid self-propelled air conditioner to cool down.
Monet is also happy to be taken by Kazan every day, which makes her feel that her brother can't do without her.
This week, Usopp has also been showing off because he often plays with Sucrose and has Sucrose, and he is not so afraid of Kazan's brother, and there is no problem with ordinary talking.
As for the question that Usopp was asking now, Kazan felt that this kid should have wanted to ask it for a long time.
After all, in the past few days, Usopp has been glancing at Kazan from time to time, wanting to say something but not daring to say it.
"Ahh Jesus, I know. β
"Huh?! Really!! β
"Well, the sniper of the red-haired pirates, I'm friends with their captain, but I haven't seen Jesus fight, I've only heard their captain say that he is a very powerful man."
"I knew... Mom didn't lie to me, he was a brave sea warrior. β
β... Well. β
Although there must have been a lot of not-so-beautiful things for pirates like Jesus, there really is nothing wrong with just saying that "Jesusb is a brave warrior at sea."
"Ahh By the way, according to their captain, that fellow Jesusb often bragged to others about how good his son Usopp was. β
β......β
Kazan didn't hear Usopp's response, and looked down to see the long-nosed imp crying.
In Usopp's mind, Jesus is a very contradictory character.
He hated that Jesus didn't come when his mother died, and he longed for his brave father.
"Usopp, what are your dreams?"
β... I don't know.. Become a brave warrior at sea? β
"Keep working hard for this goal, your father will be proud of you."
"Hmm!"
Bang!
BangοΌ
A bullet landed in a tree not far from Kazan's side, and it was Sucrose practicing shooting.
"Boom."
Usopp swallowed a mouthful of saliva and ducked behind Kazan, never expecting that he had just taught Sucrose how to aim, and then she would learn to shoot.
Although he is still very clumsy and unskilled in using a gun, it can indeed be said that because of Usopp, Sucrose began to practice using a gun in advance.
The recoil of the double-barreled shotgun was still uncontrollable, so Kazan asked her to start practicing with the lighter revolver.
Anyway, for now, Kazan doesn't see any outstanding talent in shooting from Sucrose.
Ignoring the stinky girl who was looking for a presence over there, trying to get Kazan's attention, Kazan continued to chat with Usopp.
"Soon we're leaving."
"Huh? So soon, obviously just became friends. β
"In the future, if you also go to sea, won't you be able to meet us?"
"I..."
"You'll find trustworthy companions, too."
Bang!
Another bullet, this time closer to Kazan, frightened Usopp as he was about to speak.
(β¬β£Π΄β’)
Kazan picked up a stone and threw it in the direction the bullet had come from.
Syllable.
"Ahh
"Woo woo oh !!"
The long-lost cry made Kazan's mood extremely happy: "Usopp, come with me, and give you a small gift." β
"Gifts?"
"Hmmm! It represents a token of encounter and the future. β
β...?β
Kazan led Usopp to Caroso, and Kazan entered the smelting chamber before coming out with a long steel slingshot.
The shape is imitated from the weapon of the future 'King of Sniper', and the two small words 'warrior' are engraved on the cross of the slingshot.
"When you find a suitable companion in the future, you can wear it to sea."
This was made especially for Usopp by Kazan, in fact, there was no need for such a token based on his friendship with Usopp, but due to obsessive-compulsive disorder and anticipation of his future, Kazan decided to keep one for him.
Of course, this steel slingshot can't be a pure steel product, it's just a shell, it's hollow inside, and the solid one is estimated to be quite difficult to use with Usopp's physical fitness, and it can't be a kite opponent.
By the way, physical fitness...
Kazan suddenly thought of something, walked to the smelting chamber again, and came out with a square piece of steel.
"You, come here."
βοΌβ
Click.
Usopp looked at the two steel rings on his ankles with a bewildered expression.
"In the future, you can wear these two iron rings for daily life, exercise the strength of your legs, and find a way to get rid of them yourself in the future."
By the time these two iron rings are taken off, if nothing else, at least the movement speed of this piece of Usopp should be much faster than in the original book.
Movement speed is still more important for a shooter.
"Huh?!"
...
The Monster Pirates went to sea again, and when they left, Usopp was the only one to see them off.
Looking at a steel slingshot stuck in the flat ground of the reef and Usopp with his feet heavy and almost moving, Sucrose only felt that his little friend was so pitiful.
But thinking about the three of Ace Sabo and Luffy before, Sucrose felt that it was too cheap for him.
"Hey! Usopp! β
"Huh?"
"The next time we meet again, let's have a sniper-sniper showdown!"
β... Ha? β
"What? Are you scared? Then what else do you do brave sea warriors! β
"Whoever is afraid! Wait, I'll use my slingshot to knock you out of the north!" β
The two little ones made a tender agreement between the children.
After going to sea, on the Carosso.
Sucrose came to Kazan's side, patted his chest and swore to him, "Quack! I'll be the number one sniper on the ship from now on! β
β... Just you? β
"Hmm! (β¬β£Π΄β’)β
"Okay, okay, you're a sniper, the only sniper in the monster family, okay?"
"Humph! Ω©(ΰΉΛΒ³Λ)ΫΆβ
