[One Piece] Pirate Life of Port Officers
Chapter 6
With the presence of red-haired Shanks, Carter knew that he would not get any benefits today.He put the sword back in his hand, and stepped aside with that careless expression mixed with arrogance.In the middle of the field, there are naturally Shalai and Randy.
Both held guns in both hands, in a fighting stance.
"Then, let's begin—"
As soon as Shanks' simple starting sound fell, there were successive gunshots on the field.
The machine gun held by Randy was originally used for continuous shooting. At this time, he fired two guns at the same time, and countless bullets poured in the direction of the yarn, which made Kate Kevin sweat for her.
Unexpectedly, Sha Lai chose to face the gunfire head on.
She shot straight in Randy's direction as she fired, the bullets knocking the bullets and opening a narrow passage for her.
The reason why Xilai chose such a risky approach was certainly not on a whim.According to her observation just now, the continuous firing time of Randy's two guns was six seconds, and she rushed over while defending, which was almost exactly at this time.So when he ran out of bullets, it was when she won.
But a plan is a plan after all, and it is still very difficult to open a path with only two pistols/guns in this uncovered place.In four seconds, the bullets in the yarn gun were exhausted, and he had to rely on the movement of his body and the cover of the gun to move forward.Feeling the impact of the bullet hitting the bulletproof vest and the hot feeling of other parts after being scratched by the bullet, Sarai had a premonition that after this, she would have to rest for more than ten days to recover.
When Sha Lai finally rushed to Randy, intending to give him a fatal blow when he was out of bullets, Randy withdrew his hand from the trigger, grabbed the handle of the gun, and directly used the gun body as a weapon, smashing at her over here.
So, Randy the Heavy, didn't he get that title not just because he was good at shooting a machine gun?
Seeing Randy's smug smile and the gun barrels coming from both sides, the corners of Sha Lai's mouth slightly raised, and with a flick of her wrist, she threw her right hand/gun aside, and her fingers drew a flashing line from her wrist. Shattered bracelet.
After a flash of silver light, Randy's machine gun split from the handle and hit the ground with a crisp sound.And Randy also felt the same as before, the cold metal pressed against his neck.
"It's over, do you admit defeat?"
Xilai stood in front of Randy, facing this big man who was nearly twice as tall as her, she had to raise her sword to touch his neck.But this height difference didn't bring Shalai the slightest disadvantage. She had an indifference and calmness that didn't match her age, as if what she was doing now was just something as natural as breathing.
Feeling the strange sword touch his neck, Randy gritted his teeth.Before the start of the competition, this girl didn't know where she received this strange sword. Although he thought about being on guard, he didn't expect that it would be wrapped around his hand as a bracelet and hidden in his sleeve. He made a mistake, but—
"I don't admit defeat." The corner of Randy's mouth raised a strange arc, "If you have the ability, you can kill me. Of course, the premise is that you can do it. When you just took care of my two subordinates, you would rather spend four Guns cost them their hands and feet, and they don't want to spend a single shot directly piercing their hearts or brains. Innocent little girl, you haven't killed someone yet, have you? Hahaha—"
Randy laughed smugly, his rough laughter carried obvious malice, echoed in the small open space, and then stopped abruptly in an instant.
Sha Lai shook the blood on the sword in her hand, then simply took off a small piece of bandage from her arm and wiped it carefully.And behind her, Randy fell on the grass, his body and head were separated, the dark red blood stained the grass, and the complacent smile on Randy's face was particularly strange.
"Ah, Kate, thank you for helping me catch the gun, give it to me." After wrapping the beautiful rapier around her wrist, Sara walked over to Kate with a smile, and took it back from her dazed hand. He inspected his gun carefully, as if he was treating a precious treasure.
"It's okay. No, Xilai you——" Kate came back to her senses, looked at Xilai who was stroking her hand/gun with a gentle smile, and was at a loss for words for a while.It's really hard for people to connect with the harmless appearance of Xilai and the killer with a stern expression just now.
"Swordsmanship is very good, little girl." After Sha Lai put away her hand/gun, a deep male voice broke the slightly awkward atmosphere, "Fast and precise, solid basic skills, and has her own style, really Terrible newcomer."
Sha Lai looked up at Shanks, the owner of the voice. The big pirate was resting his right hand on the hilt of his sword. His eyes under the shadow of the straw hat looked at her with a hint of appreciation. Although he did not intentionally exude malice or coercion, he just Standing there is enough to make people feel his strength.
"It's just a skill for self-protection. I'm not a swordsman." Sha Lai lightly passed the incident, pretending not to see the regret in Shanks' eyes, smiling like Carter on the other side and saying: "Carter , I'm not interested in joining the Pirates, so please go back."
Carter, who was rejected by Sha Lai, didn't have any special reaction. His attention is now mainly focused on the cadres of the red-haired pirates.Seeing that those big pirates who were offering bounties much higher than his own didn't even look at him, Carter clicked his tongue unwillingly, facing them backed up step by step, and disappeared into the shadow of the woods.
After that, the members of the Red Hair Pirates also declined Kate Kevin's retention and left on the grounds of a contract.
Among the remaining three, Shalai took off Randy's cloak, wrapped his head and put it on.It seems that what she just said about going to the navy to exchange bounties is still serious.
And Kevin, who had been extremely silent all night, said when Xi Lai packed Randy's head without changing his expression, "Xa Lai, what can I do to become stronger?"
Kevin, who was always sunny and optimistic, lowered his head at this moment, and his voice was mixed with unwillingness, remorse, self-blame, and confusion.This night, it's not that he didn't think about doing something, but he couldn't find anything that he could do.Even Shanks and the others, it was Kate who remembered seeing the Red Forth while walking yesterday, so she ran to invite them over.All through the evening he had done nothing but walk around after his sister.
Thinking of his weakness that night, his body couldn't stop shaking.
He couldn't imagine what would be waiting for the siblings if Sha Lai wasn't here today.He really didn't want to have this terrible experience again.Therefore, he must become stronger.
Trying to restrain his body, Kevin ordered himself to look up at Shalai.Apart from resignation, his slightly red eyes were filled with anger.Some are against oneself, and some are against this blurred world of good and evil.
It's a pity that after listening to his question, Sha Lai's expression remained unchanged, and she replied flatly: "My situation is different from Kevin's, so I'm sorry, but I can't give you any useful advice. You can only find your way by yourself."
The words from Sha Lai were the last communication between the three of them that day.Then they went back to the hotel, and none of them repaired the door or ate the leftover cake and wine.They went back to their respective rooms in silence. As for whether they had a good night's sleep or stared at the ceiling all night, only they knew.
The next day, before dawn, Shalai got up.
Although according to the rules set by Shanks yesterday, Carter can no longer come to hinder her going or staying, but Sara does not have any expectations for Carter's credibility.So she planned to solve some necessary things before dawn.Sha Lai dug out the black cloak, wrapped up her tattered skirt after yesterday's battle, picked up the package in the corner of the room, and walked out of the room lightly.
But as soon as she opened the door, she smelled a smell of cigarettes.After gently closing the door and walking down the stairs, Sha Lai unexpectedly saw Kate sitting on the chair with the paper crown on the back and smoking a cigarette, and judging from the cigarette butts on the table, she should stay here It's been most of the night.
"Good morning, Sha Lai, how was your rest yesterday?" After seeing Sha Lai, Kate smiled and raised the hand holding the cigarette to her. The usual bright and cheerful appearance is quite different.
"It's not bad, Kate, did you just blow the night breeze like this all night? Be careful of catching a cold." Salai didn't respond to Kate's big change, but the smell of smoke in the room made her wrinkle her nose and use her free hands After waving at Kate, Sha Lai planned to go out to do her own business first, "I have to go out beforehand, bye-"
"Don't leave in such a hurry, chat with me for a while." Kate put the cigarette butt out in the ashtray, stood up, and added with a smile after seeing Sha Lai's obvious resistance, "I didn't expect Sha Lai Come on, you hate the smell of smoke, how about we go to the top of the building to talk? It happens to be able to watch the sunrise."
Then, Sha Lai just carried the package containing Randy's head, followed Kate to the roof and sat down.Through the woods, looking at the slightly whitening sky, Sha Lai looked confused, why did it become such a development this morning?
"Thank you, Xilai, if it weren't for you yesterday, it would have been very difficult for us, my siblings." Kate sat on the downwind vent below Xilai, so that Xilai would not smell any smoke.
Seeing this gentle woman who behaved as usual with careful demeanor, Sha Lai scratched her cheek and casually said thank you, but she wanted to say that she didn't do anything, if Kate didn't find Shanks She couldn't get away last night, but she felt that it was meaningless to say these things, so she just continued to stare at the sky and became dazed.
"Sorry, I called you over early in the morning to listen to my complaints. But I always feel that although you are young, you know a lot of things. Maybe you can give me some advice." Kate turned her face and looked at it seriously. The silent yarn comes.Looking at the tattered pink dress in the cloak of Shalai, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes, and he said, "Sorry, I was confused yesterday, and I forgot to find a dress for you to change into, Shalai. I'll look for it later."
"Kate, I'm going to be ashamed. This dress is so new, it should be a very precious thing, but it was damaged by me. I'm still thinking about what kind of dress I bought before I can pay you back. "Of course, Xilai didn't miss the regret in Kate's eyes, which made her feel even more guilty.
"It's okay. This dress was my fancy when I was 14 years old. Unfortunately, I didn't have the money to buy it at that time, so forget it. I didn't expect Kevin, who was only nine years old at the time, to remember it. He saved money for two years and bought it back. .But at that time, I couldn’t wear it anymore, so I kept it in the closet, so it’s so new.” Kate turned sideways and looked at Sha Lai with her arms around her knees.The usual bright smile returned to her face, and there was a hint of nostalgia in her eyes, "Xialai, would you like to hear it? Our story."
Both held guns in both hands, in a fighting stance.
"Then, let's begin—"
As soon as Shanks' simple starting sound fell, there were successive gunshots on the field.
The machine gun held by Randy was originally used for continuous shooting. At this time, he fired two guns at the same time, and countless bullets poured in the direction of the yarn, which made Kate Kevin sweat for her.
