HxH in One Piece World - Chapter 71
Chapter 71 The Gaze From Kidd
On the long street, disputes began to emerge.
The pirates in the past withdrew their interest, and in an instant they made room for Maude and the others to play.
Fighting in the streets is the norm in Mad Hatter Town.
However, fighting in the middle of the night is rare.
The surrounding pirates all stopped to watch.
The Kidd Pirates were also in the crowd.
Seeing each other after more than three months, Kidd was shocked by the great changes in Mode.
If he covered Maude’s face, he would not be able to recognize Maude.
That kind of change is not only about the body, but more about the momentum and strength at the intuitive level.
“I really didn’t expect…”
Kidd stared at Maude.
When he first saw him, he only regarded Maude as a cheap coolie in a weapons store, and he was still the kind of coolie who didn’t live long.
It is no exaggeration to say that at that time he could easily kill Maude with just one finger.
But now it seems that Maude not only survived, but also must have a lot of blood on his hands.
Kidd, who also stepped on the bloody corpse, saw the clue at once.
The current Maude is of the same kind as him, and he also does not put human life in his eyes, and also moves forward for a certain goal.
Killer, who was inseparable from Kidd, also recognized Maude’s identity at this time.
“That person… is the handyman from that weapon shop?”
Regarding Thor’s weapon shop, Killer was more impressed by the girl with the scar on her face.
As for Maude’s words, Killer is actually just a face-to-face, and it is not easy to remember.
“right.”
Kidd nodded and focused on the situation on the field.
He was very curious how in the past three months, Maude has transformed from a weak and weak waste to a guy who can reveal a dazzling edge just by drawing a knife at this moment.
Three months.
If it was him, he might not be able to do it.
On the side, the pirates who were also watching whispered in a low voice.
“The group on the left is from the Sea Snake Pirates. The captain and vice-captain are ruthless men with a bounty of over 10 million.”
“Then what’s the origin of this guy on the right? He looks so faceless, how dare he provoke the Sea Snake Pirates by himself?”
“That’s why you’re ignorant.”
The pirate in charge of explaining suddenly showed a solemn expression.
“That person is the fierce man who stepped on the sharp bull Kaszt and punched the boy killer Abe two months ago!”
“Huh? Could it be…?”
“Yes, he was born Usopp!!!”
“It turns out that he is Usopp who made you a fortune two months ago. He has been listening to you all the time. Now it can be regarded as letting me meet the real person.”
“Shh, don’t talk nonsense.”
The pirate quickly covered his companion’s mouth, for fear that these words would be heard by Maude.
After all, the windfall from the Sharp Bull Pirates was, to put it nicely, Maude dropped it to reward them, and to put it uglier, it was they stole it from Maude.
Kidd tilted his head and looked coldly at the few pirates who were talking in a low voice.
He heard the conversation just now.
It was also at this time that he realized that the guy who came out of Sol’s weapon shop was actually Usopp, who became famous some time ago.
“Look out.”
Kidd’s eyes were cold.
That is, not a three-month change.
Actually, this guy called Usopp…
In just one month, he has grown from the kind of person who can kill himself with a single finger to a ruthless man who is enough to destroy the Sharp Bull Pirates.
If you say this.
Who believes?
Kidd, as one of the first to see Maude, even if seeing is believing, he can’t imagine how Maude did it at this moment.
This growth rate is truly incredible.
“Kid, what’s wrong with you?”
Killer noticed the strangeness of her own captain and couldn’t help but ask.
When he went to Saul’s weapon shop, he only glanced at Maude hastily.
It’s like Kidd, not only has a basic understanding of the [coolie phenomenon] of Saul’s weapon shop, but also looked at Maude directly.
It is this difference that makes the two feel completely different.
“nothing.”
Kidd shook his head, paused, and said solemnly.
“Killer, that guy also seems to be using a sword. You should take a good look at it later. He will definitely be our inevitable competitor in the future.”
“Ok?”
Killer was startled, it was rare to see his own captain being so careful with a peer of the same age.
“Understood.”
He turned to stare at Maude, who was standing sideways.
Kidd’s attitude made him begin to pay attention to Maude’s strength.
It was late at night, and more and more pirates came to hear the sound.
To say which place has the most people who watch the fun and don’t think it’s a big deal, that is, a disorderly pirate den like Mad Hatter Town.
The usual street fights are nothing.
The most violent one was when a certain pirate group captured dozens of navy soldiers.
The pirate group could sell the captured navy soldiers to the pig factory to make a fortune, but they did not do so, instead they brutally killed the navy prisoners in the street.
At that time, the street was so lively as if it was a festival, and all the sounds were the excited shouts and cheers of the pirates.
In sharp contrast, the screams made by the navy soldiers when they were tortured.
Of course, the final fate of that pirate group was very bleak.
There were a lot of good people who came to watch in a short time, which made Maude quite helpless.
“Resolve it as soon as possible.”
Maude took the initiative to attack the people of the Sea Snake Pirates.
Thomas Harvey, the captain of the Sea Snake Pirates, has a bounty of 13.8 million, which is the one who warned Maude just now.
Seeing Maude attacking with a knife, Harvey’s eyes turned cold.
“On swordsmanship, I haven’t been afraid of anyone since Harvey made my debut!”
With a move of his arm, Harvey put the long knife in the smoothest position for the knife, and immediately stepped forward with his right foot, and his figure sprang forward, facing Maude who was attacking.
What Harvey said is not a lie. Since he went to sea, he has fought against the navy dozens of times with a knife, but it is rare to find an opponent.
If the debut time is not long, otherwise the bounty will not be so low.
Therefore, the swordsmanship is the confidence that Harvey dares to challenge Usopp.
That’s confidence honed from the Navy.
[Snake song]
Harvey stared at the dark crow in Maude’s hand, the arm holding the knife suddenly shook like a wave, and the long knife that slashed forward was as elusive as the body of a snake.
In the crowd of onlookers, Killer looked at the snake song Harvey made, and couldn’t help but be surprised.
He did not expect that a pirate whose reputation was just beginning to have such superb skills.
Then, in vain, he wondered how Maude would parry.
In the arena, facing the treacherous blade path that Harvey slashed over, Maude judged the fangs hidden in the blade through Harvey’s body movements.
Then, Maude slashed forward with a mediocre knife, accurately capturing the snake head driven by Harvey.
Chong——!
The dazzling light of the snake’s curved blade suddenly melted like spring snow.
The two swords collided, spattering sparks.
The snake song was broken, but Harvey didn’t care, but laughed excitedly.
The snake song is just one of the pre-movements he has worked hard on. After that, there are three more powerful moves, which are his bottom-up skills.
However, all the naval swordsmen he had encountered before could not support the third move, so that his fourth move never had a chance to be used.
But tonight, maybe there is a chance.
Take this man in front of you to make a name for yourself!
Across the sword, Harvey stared closely at Maude, and the expression on his face became more and more excited as his mind floated.
“Sure enough, there is no illusory person under the reputation, Usopp, you have successfully made me excited, the next three moves, it depends on whether you can handle it!”
“boom–!”
At the time of the knife, Maude’s free left hand quickly took out the flintlock pistol from his arms, and immediately pulled the trigger at Harvey’s vital point.
Shot in the chest, Harvey’s excited expression suddenly solidified: “I…”
Outside the venue, the reverberation left by the gunshots made the crowd fall into a dead silence.
If it weren’t for the mask covering his face, Killer almost stared out his eyes at this time.
