Carol didn't have time to think too much and took out a handful of broken Baileys from her arms. Just as he was about to shout loudly, Luo Li grabbed the hand holding the money.
"I've brought my entourage. You tell me the location and I'll take the three of them there."
Carol glanced at the two sturdy men who followed Luo Li and nodded, "Please. The place is Siya's flower shop, you should still remember it."
"Well, their situation is not optimistic. Let's get there quickly without further delay."
…
Just when Carol and Luo Li took the fainted Youyuko and the three of them to the flower shop in Xiya, a huge paper giant suddenly appeared on the commercial street three streets away, and along with the giant appeared, there were also speculators. A continuous barrage of musket and artillery fire. However, the layers of paper covering it were as hard as steel, and the cannonballs and bullets left countless craters on the paper giant, making it impossible to go any further.
As soon as the sound of gunfire rang out, the crowd ran away like rabbits whose nest had been blown up.
After the firepower subsided, the dense smoke directly covered this section of the street.
However, the person who presided over this ambush frowned. The bullets and artillery shells that poured out like a crazy flood bloomed countless flowers and smashed the streets to pieces. However, the giant that suddenly appeared and was wrapped in layers of paper did nothing but burn. The flames that rose up unexpectedly remained motionless. This was not the planned outcome.
You must know that these are not ordinary bullets and artillery, these are special ammunition that he has enchanted.
Logically speaking, these bullets should be able to easily pass through some paper, and then beat the paper giant to pieces while leaving no trace of the people inside. He has used this tactic countless times and has never failed.
"Bill, what's going on?" A somewhat dissatisfied voice sounded from behind, and Bill shuddered instantly.
"Sy~ Lord Sykes."
"I was talking about what was going on. I came over after listening to the voice, only to find that you were driving a pile here. The key thing is that the pile was not moved at all." There was a hint of coldness in Sikes's eyes. Obviously the situation here made her very dissatisfied.
"Master Sykes, I don't know either. You know my fruit ability." Bill said weakly.
He is a devil fruit user. The piercing fruit he eats allows him or the objects he touches to have the ability to directly penetrate inanimate objects for a short time under his control. For him, this ability is just that he can pass through some obstacles at will and can easily complete some. Others have seen the task as very troublesome, but after using the ability on objects such as bullets, these objects have the power to directly penetrate the enemy's defense and directly attack themselves. Even his domineering power has no effect on him.
"What I remember is that your abilities have certain limitations."
"Limitations..." Bill was stunned for a moment, with disbelief in his eyes. "You mean, this paper giant is as hard as steel, and its thickness is over three meters!"
"That's right, idiot. Take a good look down there. Your bullet was ejected directly by the opponent after the ability failed."
Bill looked down and suddenly realized that it was not the lack of ammunition that caused damage, but that bullets and cannonballs could not penetrate the paper giant at all. After losing power, the opponent used his power to force it out, and those gorgeous explosions were just forced out. The explosion of the bomb that came out triggered the explosion of other shells.
This kind of strength is not something that a few pirates with a combined bounty of less than 100 million can achieve!
You must know that even in the New World, countless people died at his hands without any explanation.
"Damn it, this situation doesn't match the intelligence at all~!" Bill said through gritted teeth.
He did not cut corners in his tasks. It can be said that he performed his duties conscientiously and played his role perfectly. But the current situation is not that he doesn't work hard, but that the opponent's strength and intelligence are different, and the opponent is cheating!
At this time, the sound of gunfire began to gradually stop.
A gunner hurried over.
He glanced at Sikes fearfully and then asked Bill.
"Boss, the ammunition is running out soon, should we continue?"
"Why are you running out of ammunition? I prepared three times the usual amount, you bastard!"
three times? The gunner blinked, a little confused, wasn't it only 1.5 times the usual amount? Then he understood the boss's intention from his eyes.
This is to exaggerate one's preparations, so as to say to the leader next to him, 'It's not that we don't work hard, it's the enemy who opens the Gundam.'
Just now, the gunner was afraid that the leader would say that they were not doing things well or something, so he was just waiting to betray the boss to save his life. Now the boss just gave him a better plan and said nothing. Followed!
"Boss, although the firepower is three times the usual, the bastard shell on the opposite side is unprecedented. It can almost catch up with the Gate of Justice."
The Gate of Justice is the navy's internal triangular ocean current control gate. The thickness of the light gate is longer than the length of many small captains...
Of course they have never bombed the Gate of Justice, but they have never done so and have marveled at the magnificence of the Gate of Justice. At this time, moving out of the Gate of Justice coincided with the boss's words and sublimated each other.
'Leader, leader, it's not that if we don't work hard, the other party will fail! '
"Enough! I don't want to hear this, they are just a garbage pirate group with only 500 million in total!" Sykes shouted angrily, staring at the paper giant in front of him.
"They are not a pirate group with a total value of only 500 million." A blond figure appeared under the eaves below the house. A white gauze sunhat slightly covered her face, but it could not hide her identity.
"Stacy, we have agreed that you will not go back on your word and prepare to interfere in this matter."
Stacey chuckled, "How is it possible? We will not regret the deal we have reached without more exciting benefits."
"Then what are you doing here now?"
"We have a lot of benefits from this deal, so I thought about how to make the deal fair. After thinking about it, I came up with the idea of coming here to tell you some of the news I just got."
information? Sikes looked extremely ugly.
Anyone with a discerning eye can tell from her current situation that she definitely arranged an ambush and underestimated the opponent's strength. And underestimating the local strength despite being so well prepared can only mean one thing, and that is that there is a problem with the intelligence. Combined with Stacy's words, Sykes felt that this woman was just rubbing salt into the wound and taunting her with a band-aid. No matter how disgusting it looks.
However, I am disgusted, but there is definitely a problem with my intelligence here.
, since the other party said that she had the latest information, Sykes would not arrogantly refuse.
When doing things under the God of Fortune, you must always prioritize whether the benefits are worthwhile.
And now the update of intelligence is exactly what she needs most. What she was worried about was not this side, but the arrangements on the other side.
Sikes' face was gloomy. Although he was extremely unhappy, he still asked, "What information?"
"According to the latest news from the News of the World, the Navy has greatly increased the bounty of the Hikka Pirates. Among them, the leader of the Hikka Pirates, Ogihime, Shikami Yuyuko, has a bounty of 500 million beli. Hikka Sea The pirate group, Silver Moon Hunters, Kona Miloti, has a bounty of 300 million beli. The Flying Flower Pirates, refuses to approach, Mina Yu, the bounty is 150 million beli. The Flying Flower Pirates, paper The giant, Keya, has a bounty of 100 million beli. The Hikka Pirates, the weird hand, Nanami, has a bounty of 50 million beli. The Hikka Pirates, the fairy Reiju, has a bounty of 66 million beri. Lee. The Flying Flower Pirates, the boatman, Yanan, has a bounty of 30 million Baileys. The Flying Flower Pirates, the swordsman, Kuina, has a bounty of 45 million Baileys. Finally, there is one who has not been rewarded before. A reward of five million beli was also given."
"The pirate group you mentioned before is less than 500 million, but now it's just a bounty for their captain."
Stacy said with a smile, "By the way, let me tell you some internal information. They intend to recruit their captain to become the Shichibukai."
Just after Stacy finished speaking, Sykes, who knew more and more that something was wrong, immediately became furious, "Stacy, are you taking advantage of us?!!"
"No, no, no, I only learned about the reward information not long ago. We had no cooperation in intelligence sharing. Moreover, the following information is already our top secret information. If it weren't for this cooperation, our gains would be too great. I wouldn't even know it. I won’t tell you this information.”
After speaking, Stacy walked away step by step.
"That's all I can tell you. If you succeed, then it's okay not to attack such a weak Shichibukai. But if it becomes... haha... just take care of yourself."
"Damn it, this lackey of the world government! This stinky cousin!"
Suddenly Stacy stopped, and the next second a finger slowly raised and pointed at Sikes. "Sykes, I will listen to whatever you say about me. You are just the fat man's subordinate. Don't forget who you are~"
After saying this, a round hole suddenly appeared in the hair on the back of Sikes' head.
This is a warning.
"I'll give you a final message."
"Do you really think you killed those three people?"
Sikes regained his composure. Whether it is strength, interests or other factors, she cannot provoke Stacy. Now she no longer thinks about those troublesome interest disputes and prioritizes getting the goal.
"What do you mean?"
"Hehehe, what do you mean?"
Stacy's figure disappeared with a chuckle.
As Stracey disappeared, an intelligence officer also ran over.
"Lord Sikes, there is a big problem, our intelligence is delayed!"
"Shut up, I already know, now you just need to tell me how the other group is doing!"
The intelligence officer looked ugly and buried his head deeply. "Over there... the main target suddenly appeared, and the attacking team... was completely wiped out... gone."
Before he finished speaking, the intelligence officer's head fell to the ground.
"Waste~"
