HxH in One Piece World - Chapter 45
Chapter 45 Invite
After half an hour.
Maude leaned against a remote alley wall, looking up and panting slightly.
The offensive and defensive battle with Abe consumed too much energy, and after coming out of the tavern, he ran for 20 minutes without stopping.
Therefore, even if I have been resting here for more than ten minutes now, it is still a bit too late at this moment.
Especially on the spiritual level, because of excessive use of [spirit], it caused some sluggishness.
But if this were not the case, he would have been stabbed into a hornet’s nest by Abe.
“I almost couldn’t run away.”
Maude took a deep breath, and then took out the flintlock to fill the ammunition.
Thinking back to the dangerous situation in the tavern just now, if it weren’t for Wolf Rat’s last friendly support, even if he messed up the entire vortex, there was a high probability that he would be planted there.
“so far so good.”
Maude was quite scared.
Fortunately, there is also the assistance of [Heart Drop Listening], and the physical condition is not bad, so I can cope with Abe’s sword attack.
However, he finally witnessed the power of over 30 million bounty.
“Katzt and Abe…”
Maude summoned the Hunter’s Notes and wrote the [information] that he had personally experienced just now on the page.
After finishing writing, Maude put away the quill and stared silently at the names of Abe and Katzt.
“If you fight head-on, it is estimated that you will have to pay a price to kill Abe. As for Katzt, if he only relies on firearms, he has no chance of winning head-on. Even if it is a sneak attack, he may not be killed in one shot.”
Maude removed the notes and muttered to himself.
Today’s change made him deeply appreciate the powerlessness of the gunman.
Once stuck close to the body, the only thing you can do is to get as far away as possible.
Although as long as the speed is fast enough, you can fly a kite to disgust the enemy and even kill the enemy.
But if the lethality of a firearm is not enough to pose a threat, even if it can be invincible, it is tantamount to being unable to do anything in disguise.
If you can’t kill the prey, you can’t make the Hunter’s Note work.
Moreover, this is only a 30 million-level battle.
In the future, if it is a battle of more than 100 million levels, with the level of guns in the Pirate World, what kind of effect can the gunner exert?
If you think about it, Maude can refer to Usopp.
In other words, the only way for the Gunners is to support?
Even so, he doesn’t have a teammate, so he can talk about support.
Thinking of this, Maude suddenly wanted to go back and ask Saul.
Ask him how he used to fight in his experience along the way.
When facing a powerful enemy alone, what kind of tactics and thinking should be used to solve the powerful enemy?
“Sure enough, physical skills and knives are more reliable.”
Maude sighed lightly, but he would not give up spear skills directly. After all, he has many skills and doesn’t overwhelm his body. Besides, the teaching of Thor’s old qualifications can become a reliable trump card even if he is not strong in the future.
It’s just that he now wants to quickly master a melee method.
“Go home, although I didn’t find a suitable prey to start with, but somehow I got some information that I will use in the future.”
After almost recovering his physical strength, Maude didn’t dare to wave on the street anymore at this point in time.
Moreover, the sequelae of aura made him quite uncomfortable.
After all, his attainments in this area are only at the entry level, and there is no [mind power] to reduce the burden, plus this body is relatively weak at this stage.
Given the many factors, it is not easy to be able to fully use the skills in that situation.
“By the way, where did it come from?”
Maude looked at the strange environment around him.
Patronized running, I don’t know which block I ran to last.
After a moment of silence, Maude looked up at the top of the building.
It’s too early, and if you walk up there, it seems a bit swagger.
Shall we wait here until dark?
Maude thought about it.
At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps at the corner ahead.
Maude’s eyes condensed, and he immediately took out his pistol, ready to shoot at any time.
The sound of footsteps approached quickly, and a figure came out from the corner.
After seeing that the person was a wolf rat, a strange color flashed deep under Maude’s eyes.
“Brother Wolf Rat, it’s great that you are fine!”
Quietly hiding the pistol behind him, before Wolf Rat could speak, Maude took the lead in attacking with a heavy punch.
Hearing Maude’s words, Wolf Rat with a look of embarrassment endured the urge to beat Maude to death.
“Escaped by luck.”
Wolf Rat chuckled, and carried a white skunk in his bloody right hand.
The skunk seemed to be injured, with limp lower limbs, and the overall embarrassment was not inferior to that of Wolf Rat.
Maude glanced at the skunk and explained calmly:
“Brother Wolf Rat, I was really sorry just now. When I was running away, I heard you yelling from behind, which made me think I was being overtaken by the enemy. I was so frightened that I trembled. The skunk, who had just been rescued, flew out inexplicably.”
“…”
Wolf Rat’s mouth twitched slightly.
The skunk lowered his head, the pain made him feel sad, how could he have the energy to complain about Maude’s shamelessness.
Soon, Wolf Rat reacted and hurriedly spoke in support of Maude’s statement.
“Understanding, changing to be me, it will definitely be even more unbearable.”
After saying this, he didn’t see the incredible emotions in the eyes of the skunk.
[This human being is stupid, right?]
The skunk thought silently in his heart.
Maude also didn’t notice the special thing about the skunk. He looked at Wolf Rat and shook his head and sighed: “It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter, things are over, and we are all okay, this is the most important thing.”
“Yes, it’s this…eh? Haha, this is the reason.”
Wolf Rat was as uncomfortable as he swallowed his shit, and he had to pretend to be delicious.
“By the way, this is what you left. If it weren’t for returning him to you, I would probably have gone back to treat the wound.”
With that, Wolf Rat lifted up the skunk who was unlovable.
This is the reason and motivation for him to chase over to find Maude.
Although a bit far-fetched.
But he wanted to take advantage of the victory to defeat Maude’s friendship barriers.
“Oh, isn’t this the pet named Abe?”
Maude actually corrected Wolf Rat’s mistake with a serious expression on his face.
When Wolf Rat heard this, he was surprised and said: “Huh? It turns out that this is Abe’s pet. I thought it was yours, so he ran all the way with him.”
As soon as the voice fell, the skunk who had just evaporated its value was simply thrown aside by him.
When the skunk hit the fracture site after landing, he couldn’t help hissing in pain and almost vomited. Fortunately, he finally held it back.
[Two shameless bastards are struck by lightning sooner or later!]
The skunk screamed in pain, cursing Wolf Rat and Maude viciously in his heart.
Wolf Rat didn’t care about the skunk’s mood. He looked at the surroundings and pretended to be surprised.
“It’s very close to my residence, Brother Usopp, or go to my place to deal with the injury… Uh, take a break?”
Originally wanted to deal with the wound, but the wolf rat found that Maude, a special bastard thing, was not injured. On the contrary, he was injured all over his body, and his hands were almost useless.
“Ha ha.”
Maude smiled slightly when he heard the words.
“???”
Wolf Rat was startled, and after a while, he asked cautiously: “Hehe is… you agree?”
“All right, go to your place for a break.”
Maude originally wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he agreed.
He saw that Wolf Rat had some problems, but when he was in the tavern, if it hadn’t been for Wolf Rat to block Katzt…
Because of this, Maude didn’t mind going to see what medicine was sold in Wolf Rat gourd.
Seeing Maude’s promise, Wolf Rat was ecstatic, only thinking that all the efforts were worthwhile.
But he didn’t show it on his face, and calmly said: “Come with me.”
With that, he walked forward.
Maude put away the pistol without a trace, and immediately followed.
After walking a few steps, he suddenly looked back at the white skunk who was creeping slowly on the ground, trying to get out of here.
“Brother Wolf Rat, do you think you can eat skunk meat?”
Hearing Maude’s words, Wolf Rat stopped and looked back at the white skunk, unable to help but fall into thought.
Being pierced into the body by two malicious eyes, the skunk became stiff, lying on the ground, not daring to move at all.
[Beast…!]
