HxH in One Piece World - Chapter 57
Chapter 57 Enemy sniper
A precise shot from a distance directly opened the prelude to tonight.
Amid the exclamation of Tatamu, Maude looked like he was loaded with bullets as usual.
The filling time of more than ten seconds was enough for the members of Bull Pirates to respond, and based on their judgments, they hid in the bunker that they thought was appropriate.
This is also a disadvantage that cannot be avoided at present.
In the case of modern firearms, within these ten seconds, Maude has the confidence to defeat a few more before the target hides in the bunker.
“You pay attention to your surroundings.”
Maude reminded him, and immediately focused on the next prey.
One of the disadvantages of flintlock guns is that gunfire and gunpowder smoke are more obvious.
After the first shot is fired, the sound of the gun will not only alarm the people around, but also reveal the general direction of the location.
But it is only a general direction.
Therefore, the bunkers that the members of the Bull Pirate Group were looking for in a hurry were not perfect, and their bodies were more or less exposed in the gun line.
With Tatamu and Wolf Rat, Maude didn’t need to worry about the surrounding movement for the time being, and focused on finding the next target.
Soon, Maude stared at a half-body exposed target, after aiming, he didn’t rush the trigger in a hurry.
The mind was immersed in it, and while holding his breath, the fuzzy feeling gradually became clear.
Until this moment, Maude pulled the trigger.
Another gunshot.
On the far deck, the pirate who accidentally exposed half of his body was knocked to the ground and suddenly screamed.
The lead bullet hit his chest. Although it didn’t hit the critical point, it would lead to death step by step if it was not treated in time.
In this case, the surrounding pirates did not dare to lean out to help.
Wells didn’t even look at the companion who fell to the ground, his attention was always on the direction of the bullet.
After seeing the gunfire in the distance, Wells quickly set up the rifled spear and aimed at Maude’s location within one breath.
The sea breeze hit his face, causing his eyes to tremble slightly.
“Damn it, it’s headwind…”
But he didn’t hesitate, pulled the trigger and fired a shot, then quickly retracted into the bunker.
On top of the warehouse.
Puff–
The lead bullets flying from the direction of the dock hit the eaves on the other side of the warehouse roof, several meters away from Moude.
Hearing the movement, Wolf Rat and Tatamu looked at the impact point for the first time.
The opponent started to fight back…
Can find out the position so quickly, obviously is the sniper with not low level, unsurprisingly, it should be the cadre of the Pirate Pirates, Wells.
Unfortunately…….
Afterwards, they looked at Maude, and saw Maude almost filled the ammunition.
They made a sound reminder, but they were worried that it would affect Maude’s state, so they remained silent.
Maude loaded the third round of ammunition, still calmly set up the muzzle.
Aim, shoot!
boom–!
Another pirate fell on the deck of the Bull Pirate Ship. It was still not the point, but it was deadly enough.
After being hit by three comrades in a row, while the surrounding members of the Bull Pirates group were frightened, they all couldn’t help but look at the location of several gunmen including Wells.
This kind of duel between gunmen, as melee personnel, can’t help them at all, and can only hope that their own snipers can solve each other as soon as possible.
Otherwise, they will only become living targets.
Feeling the gaze pressure from his companions, Wells and other gunmen secretly gritted their teeth, holding a rifled rifle, and fired several shots at the location where Maude was.
However, in the case of headwinds, even if the range and accuracy of the rifled gun are better than Maude’s musket, it is difficult to pose an effective threat to Maude.
In the next few rounds of confrontation.
Four more members of the Bull Pirate Group fell.
Gradually, they realized that several of their snipers had been suppressed, and based on the frequency of gunshots, they could tell that there was only one enemy sniper.
This is because the more hits the less, but it was suppressed.
Deeply aware of the horror of enemy snipers, but also disappointed with his own snipers.
The lean Gabton crouched behind the mast, pressed the hilt with one hand, and calmly looked at the location of Wells.
From his position, you can even see Wells’s ugly and gloomy profile.
Gabriel is the captain of the melee team, but he doesn’t want the players to become the enemy’s spears if they do nothing, and he can’t care about Wells’s face immediately.
“Wells, since we can’t beat the opponent, we will cover us and hide in a safer bunker.”
“good.”
Wells’ complexion changed and gritted his teeth in response.
He temporarily took over the command of the scene and ordered several team members who were also gunners to take the lead to suppress Maude, and at the same time commanded the close combat members to hide into the safe bunker judged by his experience.
After finishing these command tasks, the price was that one of the gunmen in the team was shot headshot.
After a total of ten shots, two died and six were seriously injured.
The hit rate of up to 80% made Wells fearful.
This is still a situation where there is only one opponent.
Even the chief sniper in the regiment had this reaction, let alone other people.
It is a sharp contrast between enemy and sniper!
Gabriel was very calm, looked in the direction of the captain’s room, and shouted: “Captain, do you want to stay where you are, or how many people should I take to kill the sniper?”
After a while, Katzt’s voice came out of the door.
“Go ahead.”
Just two bytes, but it contains the anger that is about to gush out.
Fortunately, Katzt didn’t know the identity of the enemy sniper, otherwise the wound might burst with anger.
After getting the captain’s approval, Gabriel nodded several players with gestures, then looked at Wells, and said solemnly: “Cover us.”
“Okay.”
Wells took a deep breath, struggling to suppress the shame.
Under the cover of him and several gunmen, Gabriel took the five team members, quickly disembarked, and pressed towards Maude’s position.
On top of the warehouse.
Maude was loading the ammunition while watching the figures leaving from the Bull Pirate Ship.
There was a clear bullet hole just one meter in front of him.
It was a few rounds of gun shooting, the closest bullet to him.
“Wolf Rat, it’s almost there.”
Maude reminded.
Wolf Rat nodded and said, “Be careful.”
After finishing speaking, he jumped out of the warehouse with Tatamu to meet the team led by Gabriel.
After Wolf Rat and Tatamu left, Maude also filled the ammunition.
He set up the gun again, aiming at the deck of the Bull Pirates.
In sight, it was the bunker where Wells was.
“I found you, my dear prey.”
Maude smiled slightly, as if he hadn’t heard the successive bullets breaking through the air.
The firing frequency has obviously increased by a notch.
But Maude knew that it was the way Wells and others sacrificed their heads in order to suppress them.
The purpose is also obvious, to create opportunities for the Gabriel team.
Maude, who has a wealth of gunfighting experience, can easily reach an accurate judgment.
“But I also have a qualified thug.”
Maude whispered to himself, if Tatamu counted, then there would be two.
A random shot was fired at the deck of the Bull Pirate Ship, Maude left here, and while loading ammunition, he went to the next sniper point.
From now on, his sniper target is only Wells.
At the same time.
This gun battle attracted many spectators.
Located in the shadows around the Pirate Ship.
The secret whistles from several pirate groups are watching this scene closely.
“Finally someone did it, and…”
“Which sniper of the pirate group is terribly strong!”
The whistles showed their fangs like sharks smelling blood.
Once the opportunity becomes clear, Bull Pirates that could not be shaken before will turn into a piece of delicious meat.
