Pirate Nova

Chapter 9 9. The Silent Spear
After Jack hid in the stone wall, the strange silent bullets disappeared one after another as if they had disappeared.And as the opponent's attack disappeared, Jack's mood became more and more restless.

Before he was injured, he chose to temporarily avoid the sharp edge. At this time, he felt more and more threatened by the other party, like a pair of iron clamp-like hands tightly wrapped around his neck, and even his breathing became heavy. stand up.

"Silent shooting, the enemy's identity and direction are unknown... What kind of ability is this!?"

Although Jack has been a bounty hunter for more than three months at least, he has never met a devil fruit capable person.After all, the South China Sea is a vast ocean, and people with strange and rare powers known as the treasure of the sea-Devil Fruit are even rarer.

Those people with the power of the devil fruit either went to the great route or the bounty was at least twice as high as that of ordinary pirates, so Jack had no intention of going to these people before.But it's good now, it seems that a devil fruit ability user took the initiative to find him.

Moreover, the opponent's fruit ability should have the ability to eliminate sound, and this ability combined with the opponent's long-range spear skills makes Jack hard to defend against.Because he didn't know where the enemy was, and from which weird angle the next bullet would shoot at him silently.

You must know that after being attacked for the first time, he was very lucky to avoid the vital point, and he was not shot in the head or broken in the heart.Otherwise, it is impossible for him to live to this day.

"Assassination? Why hide your head on the road?"

Various thoughts flashed through Jack's mind for a moment, but he couldn't be sure why the other party was staring at him anyway.After all, if it is a pirate, most of the strong will choose to fight head-on.And it is even more impossible for navies who claim to be just to choose this way to deal with themselves.

After a simple analysis of the cause and effect, Jack already had some ideas in his mind.The opponent should be extremely dependent on his fruit ability, and be confident that he can't find his whereabouts at all.And if the enemy hiding in the dark had the combat power to crush him head-on, he would not choose to hide in an unknown corner and kill him at this time.

"As long as we can find him, we should be able to win!"

Thinking of this, Jack immediately bowed his knees, and then rushed out like a charging bull from behind the stone wall that he temporarily used as a cover, and after choosing a direction, he began to run forward in a serpentine route.

Although he has been shot and bled, Jack's physical strength and physical fitness have gradually moved away from the category of ordinary people after several months of training, and gradually approached those strong men at sea.So the injuries on his body at this time did not hinder his speed.

As Jack rushed out of the bunker, the silent bullets that disappeared for a short time followed behind him like the scythe of death, leaving a bullet hole on the ground with one deep into the ground.

Although there was no sound when the bullet hit, Jack could still see the general direction from the trajectory of the bullet.Immediately, I was overjoyed, and the opponent who I thought was invincible suddenly had an opportunity to win.

However, before Jack was happy, two bullets that followed each other within three seconds of each other mercilessly crushed the fighting spirit that had just ignited in his heart again.Although Jack avoided the first bullet, the second bullet still penetrated directly into his right calf at an unparalleled speed.

After feeling shot in the calf, Jack felt a chill in his heart.He knew that if he lost the speed to deal with the opponent, then he would be a fish on the chopping board and could only be slaughtered.Unfortunately, his unsatisfactory calves had seriously slowed down his dodging speed, and it didn't take long for him to have another bloody hole in his waist.

"Is this the end...?"

Jack was half-kneeling on an open space. While avoiding the opponent's attack, he rushed forward all the way, and he didn't know where he ran, and there was no one around.There was only a low hill in front of him, and halfway up the hill was a stern-looking man with long purple hair holding a silver spear in his hand, and the muzzle of the gun was firmly aimed at Jack's head.

The distance of several hundred meters was like a moat to Jack. At this time, the blood from the gunshot wound on his body had stained his clothes red. Jack, who was half kneeling on the ground, felt the rapid loss of life, like a hole The buckets are generally unable to make up.But he still didn't give up, trying hard to stand up and kill the enemy with his hands.

"Silent Spear Kugor..."

Jack glanced at Kugel on the high ground. Although he had a rough guess in his mind before, when he saw Kugel, he already knew that he was hopeless.Jiqiang-Kugol, a famous pirate on the South China Sea, is also a fearsome assassin master, with a bounty of 4000 and [-] million Baileys.

His gun never made a sound when it fired, and his own whereabouts were more erratic than a ghost.The targets he targets tend to flee frantically like headless chickens under the shroud of fear, and Kugel sometimes hunts his targets slowly with great interest, and sometimes kills them with one shot.His character is as unpredictable as his marksmanship.

Raise the gun, sneer, and pull the trigger.Kugel didn't talk nonsense to Jack at all. All he had in his eyes was the anticipation that the hunt was about to succeed, like an old hunter who had been chasing prey for a day in the forest and finally let go of his hands at the perfect time. The grip of the arrow is like an arrow string, which makes him unable to stop.

Desperation and unwillingness filled Jack's heart. Although he just stood up, he couldn't kill the opponent before he shot him anyway.Relying on one's own spear skills to use the pistol on the waist to kill the opponent is like a dream.

hum~
However, at this time of life and death.There seemed to be some power in Jack's body that broke out of the cocoon, as if a new life forcefully pierced the eggshell that imprisoned him.An invisible force field instantly spread to the surroundings with Jack as the center, and formed a sphere with a radius of about 500 meters in the next second.

This kind of power is invisible and colorless, but at the moment of awakening, Jack's desperate eyes were instantly filled with an unbelievable expression, and he pulled out the scimitar at his waist like a resurgence, and just faced Kugel. rushed over.

Yes, at the time of life and death, he awakened the domineering power of knowledge and knowledge.

Although it's just entry-level domineering, it's enough for Jack.He had faintly felt that he was not far from awakening, but he never expected to gain the power of knowledge and domineering at this time, but it is not without reason to think so.

After all, only the battle between life and death is the best opportunity to improve strength.

As the bullet hit, Jack easily dodged the fatal blow after tilting his head lightly.For Jack, everything around him is so clearly visible, and now he is as if a blind man who has been blind for a lifetime suddenly has vision.

Although this feeling is extremely wonderful, it still makes Jack feel a strong sense of confidence. He believes that he can dodge any attack from the opponent without any effort.

Although Jack has already felt that there is no breath or sound coming out of the space of about two meters around Kugel, but as long as anything leaves Kugel's surroundings, it will return to normal, even if it is a bullet that has been fired.

On the other hand, after seeing his prey dodging the bullet flying towards the head with ease, even the veteran hunter Kugel, who had experienced many battles, couldn't help but grow his mouth.He had never seen someone who could dodge a high-speed bullet so easily, as if he knew where the bullet would come from. This sight made him a little unbelievable.

But at this time, Kugel couldn't be blamed for being surprised. After all, what he thought was experienced and well-informed was only limited to the South China Sea area.

After panickedly putting down the sniper rifle that was still smoking after firing, Kugel quickly picked up another identical long gun from his side and pointed it at Jack.After all, even a sniper rifle cannot be fired continuously. Instead of wasting time reloading the ammunition immediately after firing, it is better to prepare another gun directly.

However, after pulling the trigger again, Kugel was still frightened by the scene in front of him. The man who was sprinting towards the hillside slashed fiercely at the bullet flying in front of him, flying it aside. .

"Not only can I dodge... but I can also split bullets with a knife? What kind of monster am I hunting?!"

What Kugel saw this time completely shattered his confidence in his spear skills. At this time, he no longer had any fighting spirit, and only had the idea of ​​escaping in his mind.You must know that he is a long-range gunner, and close combat and physical skills are not his strong points at all.If he was approached by that man, his fate would be extremely miserable without even thinking about it.

However, before Kugel could throw his gun and escape, Jack had already arrived less than 20 meters away from the opponent.Seeing that the other party wanted to run, Jack took out his pistol and shot without saying a word.

Bang!
"Huh? Not good!"

Kugel, who was just about to run away, saw that Jack was aiming at himself and took out his gun to shoot, so he flew out to the side without thinking about it, hoping to avoid the damage caused by the gun.What he never expected was that not only did he not show any signs of being shot, but even the place where he stood before had no signs of bullet holes.

The bullet seemed to be shooting at an enemy that didn't exist in the air, and it flew farther and farther away on a trajectory that clearly deviated from the target, and disappeared in the distance.

"This..."

At this time, Kugel didn't know that he had been completely tricked, but it was too late.Jack, who was full of murderous intent, had already advanced to a distance of less than three meters from Kugel. The sharp machete in his hand exuded a faint smell of blood, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.
