Shouldn't we attack the navy
Even if it is normal for pirates to fight each other...
But that is also based on the premise of interests or conflicts and grievances.
Bertrand realized Maud's true purpose, and the doubts that arose were shattered by the oncoming sword light before the doubts arose.
At this moment, Bertrand no longer had the energy to think about those messy things.
How to survive the immediate crisis is more important than anything else at this moment.
Clang!
He swung his thick-backed machete and parried Mord's attack.
The strength of both sides collided with each other through the blades, and immediately set off a wave of air that spread all around.
Although Bertrand had been stabbed by Moder before, he was still a pirate with a bounty of nearly 100 million, and his strength was not that weak.
"Do we have to kill them all?"
After parrying, Bertrand looked solemn.
If there was even a chance, he wouldn't want to fight Maud at all.
Moreover, this fight meant nothing to him.
Maude remained silent, but she was quite surprised at the strength Bertrand showed after being injured.
After all, he is a pirate who can be rewarded by the navy with a reward of 98 million, which is much better than that Buffalo who developed the devil fruit in a mess.
Some people are like that.
After eating a relatively weak Devil Fruit, you will overemphasize the ability of the Devil Fruit, thus ruining some of your own strengths.
Only Devil Fruits of the animal type, which are purely focused on increasing one's own physique, can avoid this potential drawback.
Maud's silence made Bertrand feel gloomy.
Knowing that this battle was inevitable, Bertrand endured the pain of the bursting wound and exerted all his strength. Veins suddenly appeared on his arms and even the back of his hand holding the handle of the knife.
He tried to use his strength to hold Maude in place.
"Conan, don't worry about me, just kill him!"
“…”
Conan, who had transformed into a human-animal form, did not hesitate at all. He jumped directly in a roundabout way and pounced on Maud, who was locked in a stalemate with Bertrand.
[Six rounds of gold]
Conan crossed his arms and leaped into the air to draw six golden claw marks that struck Maud's back.
Judging from its trajectory, even Bertrand is within the attack range.
In this situation, if Maude could withstand Bertrand's sudden burst of pressure, he could escape directly.
Then, Bertrand would be exposed to Conan's attack.
If Mod couldn't get rid of Bertrand's pressure, he would have to bear Conan's attack on his back, and the attack that exceeded the range of his back would also affect Bertrand.
Dare to make such a hasty decision, I don't know whether it is overconfidence or a manifestation of mutual trust.
"Tsk..."
Maud narrowed her eyes slightly.
Using his sense of sight, he could "see" Conan's attack from behind clearly.
Rather take a certain degree of risk and attack the back where the stress is greatest rather than the side where the risk is lower.
Sometimes, a wrong decision will not only fail to gain an advantage, but will put oneself into a situation of no return.
"Do you really think you can suppress me..."
When the claw attack came, Maude resisted Bertrand's pressure without any pressure at first, then lightly raised his heels, turned his ankles, and lightly pulled away to one side.
The difference in strength allowed Mod to easily escape from the suppressed situation.
This sudden response caused Bertrand to lose the focus of pressure, causing his upper body to lean forward.
That movement looked like the six-wheeled gold that had taken the initiative to hit Conan.
"Damn..."
Bertram's eyes changed, and so did Conan.
That move called Six Wheels of Gold hit Bertrand like this.
"Well!"
Several blood arrows spattered from Bertrand's body.
At the critical moment, Conan held back some of his strength.
Despite this, his attack still left several dazzling blood marks on Bertrand's body.
"hateful!"
This unexpected result shocked Conan's mind.
At the same time, feeling the stinging sensation coming from behind, he didn't bother to check Bertrand's injury. He turned around suddenly and saw Maude slashing at him with a knife.
It was a knife without any fancy features, but it was fast and hard.
Conan in his human-animal form quickly stabilized his figure, and the sharp claws extending from his fingertips were crisscrossed, blocking the path of the long knife.
laugh!
The hard claws that should have been able to withstand cold weapons easily were cut through like tofu when faced with Maud's knife.
The Chidori blade wrapped in armament colors cut through the sharp claws, and then opened a conspicuous blood line on Conan's chest.
"No, it's impossible?!"
When the pain came from his fingertips, Conan's face froze and he felt that the heat in his body was rapidly losing.
He rolled his eyes with difficulty, trying to look at Maud who was walking by.
However, cold darkness suddenly surged in before his eyes, completely covering his sight and thoughts.
A fountain of blood suddenly spurted out from Conan's chest, and the strong human-animal body slowly fell to the ground.
Watching Conan being chopped down by Maude, Bertrand, who could barely stand on his feet, narrowed his eyes sharply.
"Conan!"
Bertrand looked at Maud with a look of grief and anger and red eyes.
"Bacardi Mod, you... are just an inhumane butcher!!! I'm going to kill you!!!"
The voice mixed with anger and hatred resounded throughout the Colosseum, even overpowering the continuous gunshots for a time.
Many pirates and bounty hunters followed the sound and looked towards where Bertrand and Maude were.
What happened
They were doubtful.
"Butcher..."
Listening to Bertrand's sad roar, Maude had a trace of disdain on her lips.
"Now that things have happened, you who have slaughtered a whole village have the right to say such things? However, I didn't attack you because of this incident, but if I had to choose..."
Maude pointed the knife at Bertrand, whose eyes were wide and trembling, and said with a smile: "I still prefer people like you."
Bertrand couldn't understand this unclear sentence. With the murderous intention overflowing, he stopped talking nonsense and raised his knife to kill Maud.
However, defeat was decided.
Maude slashed Bertrand to death with two swords and received a good amount of experience points.
In terms of profits in the entire Colosseum, Conan and Bertrand of the Fang Pirates are at the top of the list.
After collecting the experience points of these two preys, Maud had no time to feel the physical changes caused by the feedback from the gains.
Still ignoring the surprised looks from all around, Maud jumped straight to the audience stage and began to chase down the pirates who chose to stay.
His move gave all the pirates a bad premonition.
At this time, armed soldiers poured in from various entrances and exits of the auditorium.
In the VIP box built at the highest point, King Digar of the Kingdom of Ahab stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with his hands behind his hands, looking down at the chaos in the Colosseum with cold eyes.
The extremely contemptuous eyes swept over each pirate, including Mod, as if looking at a swarm of ants.
"A bunch of lawless idiots."
Chapter 78 The Best Hunting Ground
A messy Colosseum.
The sound of gunshots scattered everywhere.
There are also those people who lost their lives due to unreasonable disasters.
Everything appeared before Digar's eyes like a farce.
The national conditions he created to consume pirates were no match for the natural influence brought by a Devil Fruit.
This displeased him.
In the final analysis, he still far underestimated the greed and bottom line of the pirates.
Just to compete for a Devil Fruit, these pirates dared to ignore his army, which he spent a lot of money on every year.
"Pirates are pirates, they do things regardless of the consequences and have no brains at all."
Digar lowered his head and looked down at the elite soldiers pouring into the Colosseum from all entrances and exits.
There are a total of 10,000 elites outside and inside the field.
This kind of force is enough to wipe out the group of lawless people who are doing whatever they want in the Colosseum.
However, Digar did not let the army take action directly, but asked them to guard various passages, forming a situation in the urn.
A thick-browed general wearing armor came behind Digar and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, all the soldiers are in place."
"Keep them on standby."
Digar raised his gaze and looked at Lafayette, who was dodging lead bullets in the air.
"yes!"
The thick-browed general responded, turned around and left the box.
No need for Digard to explain, he realized what Digard was thinking.
Right now, the pirates in the Colosseum are fighting each other over a Devil Fruit.
In this case, the army does not need to rush into the arena at all. It only needs to guard all entrances and exits to block all the pirates in the Colosseum.
When the pirates stop and even want to escape, it's time for the army to take action.
At that time, they will not let any pirate go.
After General Thick Eyebrow left, Digar's attention shifted from Lafayette to Mod, who was chasing the pirates in the field.
This kind of fighting between "beasts" is something Digar likes to see.
But for some reason, Digar suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart while watching Mode kill.
"Just a pirate."
Digar shook his head slightly to calm the strange feeling in his heart.
In his opinion, the 10,000 elite soldiers in the arena, plus several top domestic powerhouses in the box responsible for protecting him, are enough to deal with this group of lawless pirates in the Colosseum.
Inside the Fighting Beast Arena.
The sudden influx of soldiers was like a basin of cold water, slightly suppressing the high spirits of the many pirates and bounty hunters present who wanted to seize the Devil Fruit.
"These soldiers...?"
"What's the situation now?"
Many pirates and bounty hunters stopped and frowned at the soldiers who exuded a murderous look.
