David Rick, the Mad Hatter, is a name that is quite famous even among the entire bounty hunter circle.

He has a crazy and weird style, and people say that he is more of a pirate than a pirate. He sailed the seas aboard his beloved mighty warship, the Magic Flute, and the tar-coated captain's hat on his head accompanied him in defeating one formidable foe.

No one knew about his past, and no one could guess his goal. Today, though, Mozart and Dontenn can be pretty sure of Rick's idea - he wants to kill his group completely!

Seeing Mozart and Dontern swoop towards him in two ways on the spacious deck, David Rick raised his eyebrows slightly instead of panicking, and sneered behind his thick beard.

"Stupid little trick...... Let me see how many pounds and taels you have! ”

He pulled out a flat silver flask from behind his waist with 'Rick' engraved on the surface. Tilting his head and pouring tons of wine from the jug into his mouth, the dripping wine flowed down his jaw.

So contemptuous of people? Dare to raise your head and drink during the battle!? Mozart was furious, and the gouguli knife in his hand, which was shaped like a dog's leg, spun at high speed and slashed at Rick. On the other side, the chain knife in Donten's hand threw out a huge arc, and the sharp chain blade rolled diagonally towards Rick with a whistling sound of breaking through the air.

Rick puffed out his cheeks, his mouth full of booze, and squirted balls of bounty in quick and coherent sips at the two of them. As soon as the booze ball left 30 centimeters in front of Rick, it immediately dispersed into hundreds of small balls and accelerated and accelerated. In less than 1 second, the balls of wine in the sky turned into bursts of fine buckshot!

"Advance the shotgun!"

Jingle Bell! Not only were the guguli knives and chain blades slashed out completely castrated, but Mozart and Dontenn also burst out with countless small blood flowers. The two of them were thrown backwards several meters by the huge propulsion, and the deck was immediately stained with blood.

"Hell! What exactly is a Devil Fruit? ”

Although the wound was not deep, there were bursts of pain from every part of his body, Mozart grinned and got up from the ground, and as soon as he picked up the Guguri knife that had fallen to the side, he found that the 'Mad Hatter' David Rick pulled out a precious scimitar with a golden handle and gems from his waist, and rushed towards him, faster and faster!

Qiang ——!!

David Rick rushed in front of Mozart almost instantly. But as soon as he swung his scimitar at Mozart's head, the sickle-shaped chain blade stabbed diagonally at a sharp angle, striking the scimitar sideways and narrowly saving Mozart.

"'Little Chain Knife' Donten...... You're still a little bit of an eye-catcher. ”

David Rick slashed his backhand diagonally, and with his empty left hand, he pulled out a flintlock pistol with gold stripes on a black background from behind his waist and threw a shot at Dontenn in the distance. The bullet pierced Dontern's left shoulder at an eerie speed that could not be caught at all, and the latter fell to his knees, where he could be seen completely scorched by the heat near the piercing wound on his left shoulder.

Before a second shot could be fired, Mozart fit into David Rick's arms, knocking him to the ground and throwing him off balance and falling to the deck.

Of course, Dontenn would not let go of such a good opportunity, and immediately threw out the chain knife in his hand. The long chains made a crisp metal crash, and the blades slashed straight at David Rick, who had fallen to the ground.

Bang. As the gun rang out, the chain blade was hit by a bullet with precision! One, two, three! Three gunshots rang out in succession, and the chain blade was hit by bullets in the same position three times in a row, and the castration was completely dispersed while the blade also showed obvious cracks.

A figure appeared in the passage from the deck to the lower cabin. I saw a beautiful woman with blonde hair and a shawl holding a three-shot flintlock pistol, and the muzzle of the gun was still smoking.

A trusted accomplice of David Rick 'Mad Hatter', 'Lead' Bass! The three shots that were extremely accurate just now were her handiwork.

"Dad, I almost capsized." 'Lead' Bess threw away the flintlock pistol in his hand and pulled another of the same model from the gray pouch at his feet.

Flintlock muskets were cumbersome to load, so gunners on the sea carried several muskets with them for any situation, which is why gunners were so keen on the revolvers issued by the Hunters' Guild to official hunters. A beautiful firearm that is easy to load, rarely malfunctions, and capable of firing six rounds is as tempting to the gunners as a well-fried toast bread coated with red jam is to a hungry shipwreck who has not eaten for three days.

David Rick got up from the deck and shook his head: "Oh, the biggest failure of this trick is that it is easy to get drunk." Well, much more sober. ”

Looking at David Rick and 'Lead' Bass with a flintlock pistol in their hands, Dontern and Mozart couldn't help but sink in their hearts.

"Don Turn, have you ever watched "Dragon and Tiger"? Stiller S. The one written by J. Tate. ”

"No, what's wrong?"

"We're in the same situation as them."

"Did it turn out well?"

"A lot of people died."

“……”

Dontenn didn't know what to say, and saw that David Rick and Bess had just raised their muskets and were about to shoot, when a loud bang suddenly rang out from the side.

With a heavy object falling to the ground, Jerry 'Springhand' slammed into the deck between Mozart, Dontenn and Rick Bess.

I saw that Jerry had several scars on his body, and blood kept pouring out of them. There are several strange golden 'scars' on his face, which if you look closely, you can see that the scars are gradually expanding.

"Jerry! What are you doing? Seeing this, the 'lead' bass was furious: "Can't you even clean up a nobody?" ”

"I wish you could see how hard I worked just now!" Not to be outdone, Jerry leaned on the deck and quarreled with Bass: "The nobody in your mouth just used the Devil Fruit ability to sneak up on me!" Devil Fruits! ”

David Rick rolled his eyes, "Oh Bess dear, I told you this guy was unreliable. I know there's a good marriage counseling agency, and I can take you both to see it when the competition is over? Gratuitous. ”

"Rick! Why are you so deliberately breaking up me and Bes! Jerry was even more upset, and he got up from the ground and glared at Rick: "It's between the two of us!" And I've been working for you for nothing for four years, and you don't have any kindness to me at all! ”

"When you injected that 20 ml Dream Destroyer into my daughter's body, it was decided that I would never be able to be kind to you!"

David Rick tore off his hat and folded his eyebrows into a V: "You shameless little bastard!" If it weren't for my granddaughter's young age, I would have stuffed you into the cannon and set off fireworks!" ”

Mozart saw it. It's not so much a gang as David Rick and the three as a family. Family-based bounty hunters are not uncommon, but such 'unique' ones are rare.

"Can you pause your family ethics drama for a while?"

Mozart and Donthorn turned their heads to look to the other side, only to see Tezzolo's green hair tucked back into his back, and the golden rings in his fists turned into golden-knuckled tigers with soft golden light. He slowly walked up to Mozart and Donten, with a habitual fake smile on his face: "Sorry, the warm-up was a bit slow. But I think let's settle the old grudge first, right? ”

"Makes sense." Rick put his captain's hat back on, and Jerry got up and moved his shoulders with Bess on his side.

The storm continued, and the Magic Flute was speeding in the direction it had set off unmanned.

On deck, the battle to the death is about to begin.
