Thor sighed, wiped the saliva that accidentally drooled with his hand, and then wiped it on Arthur's clothes.
"you… !"
Arthur looked at Thor in shock and anger, resisting the urge to cover Thor's head with the seat.
Thor looked as if nothing had happened, with his legs crossed.
Arthur endured it, only blaming himself for having to sit next to Thor.
"It'll probably get lively later."
Suddenly, Arthur heard Thor whispering to himself.
"What's the meaning?"
He looked at Thor in confusion.
Sol grinned and whispered to himself: "Anything that can easily touch people's hearts..."
"Um?"
Arthur's face straightened, as if he had realized something.
Then, he heard Thor's next words.
"It's often like shit, and it can easily blind some people's eyes."
“…”
On the auction stage, the middle-aged auctioneer opened his arms and his tone was always passionate and powerful.
"The next product will be the last slave to be auctioned tonight. As the final product of the slave category, I believe it will not disappoint you. So, please take a look."
As the last byte fell, he suddenly swung his arms and pointed to the left side of the auction table.
With the rumble of rolling wheels, a cart with an iron cage on it was pushed to the center of the auction table by two powerful staff.
Inside the cage, an khaki-colored fishman sat cross-legged, with chains wrapped around his strong body that could not be broken free.
The fish-man lowered his head, as quiet as a dead thing.
His physical condition was good, but his whole body exuded a sense of exhaustion.
The auctioneer walked to the edge of the cage and smiled:
"This is tonight's slave finale product, the cone-toothed shark man. I know that customers who like this product must be well prepared, while customers who hate this product are not interested."
"Therefore, please allow me to skip the introduction and go directly to the next step of product display."
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, the staff member on the other side of the cage pressed a button on the cart.
Zizzi!
Suddenly, a bright electric current quickly flowed through the fish-man's body.
"Ah!"
After receiving this electric shock, the fish-man who was lifeless a second ago suddenly twisted his body wildly, opened his mouth wide and screamed miserably.
Because of this, the wide mouth revealed his characteristics as a cone-toothed shark-the sharp teeth densely packed vertically and horizontally.
Among the seats, the buyers who are coming for the fishmen are already ready to make a move. As soon as the auction begins, they will raise their placards and bid as soon as possible.
Katzite is one of them.
This fishman slave will be a commodity he must obtain.
... ... ...
Backstage behind the curtain of the auction stage, there are cages holding slaves in disorder.
These slaves are almost all women with first-class figures and appearance. Of course, there are also a few strong male slaves.
Regardless of whether they were female slaves or male slaves, at this time, when they heard the shrill screams coming from the auction platform, they all lowered their heads and remained silent, their eyes full of defeat.
Among these cages, there was a cage that looked more like a pet box, in which was a skunk that was all white and slender.
Strangely, not only does this skunk not stink, it even emits a strange aroma.
The skunk was curled up in the cage, its dark human eyes staring at the human slaves present.
The look in his eyes was no different from that of a human being, without any awareness of being a prisoner in the same cage.
He looked at the slaves as if they were a bunch of wretches.
... ... ... ... ... .
The night is getting darker, and the coolness is coming with the wind.
Maud quietly followed the three prey.
Not long after they left, several drunken men walked out of the pub and walked in a certain direction on the street.
After the men walked some distance away, Sabo opened the door of the tavern and walked out.
He glanced at the men who had walked some distance away without leaving a trace, but his behavior was surprisingly consistent with Maud's, and he quietly followed those men.
Maud, who was in the opposite direction, knew nothing about this.
He followed the three prey all the way, but never found a suitable opportunity to strike.
However, he was in no hurry.
As long as profits can be guaranteed, it doesn't matter if you wait until dawn.
This is one of his hunting rules.
Maud was hanging far behind her prey.
Time passed quickly, half an hour passed.
At this time, Maud finally got his chance.
Seeing that the three prey finally stopped wandering around and turned into an alley, Maud's eyes lit up and she quickly followed them.
The three men holding each other's backs had no idea that there was a god of death hanging behind them.
They walked aimlessly up and down the alley, and somehow they saw a bar with business lights on at the end of a narrow alley.
"Hey, there is a bar in a place like this?"
One of the men rubbed his eyes, a little surprised.
"Would you like to go have a few more drinks?"
"Okay."
The drunkenness was aroused, and several men became interested.
bang bang—
At this moment, two gunshots rang out in the alleyway without warning.
The hot lead bullets cut through the air and hit the backs of two of the men. Two eye-catching blood flowers bloomed before they fell forward.
"Um?"
The last man who was not shot reacted suddenly, and without hesitation, he pulled one of his shot companions who was about to fall to the ground in front of him as a shield, and at the same time looked in the direction of the lead bullet.
boom-
There was another gunshot.
The companion who was being used as a shield had another bloody flower on his back.
At the other end of the alley, Maude was quite surprised when he fired the third shot.
He brought a total of three guns, so he could fire three shots in a short period of time.
The first two shots were fired from the left and right, and the flintlock pistol was used to hit the two prey with guns on them.
Of course, in order to gain experience, he deliberately avoided the key points.
Then, he quickly switched to [Usopp] and shot at the last prey carrying a knife.
But he didn't expect that the last knife-carrying prey would react so quickly and cruelly, using his companion as a shield without even thinking.
Thinking that the two shot prey would bleed to death in a short period of time, Moder decisively threw away [Usopp] and rushed towards the knife-carrying man who was using his companions as a shield.
When the man with the knife saw Maud rushing towards him, his eyes changed and he hesitated for a moment. He did not pull out the flintlock gun slung around the waist of his shield companion. Instead, he pushed his shield companion away and then pulled out the long knife.
At this moment, Maud was already close, holding a dagger and attacking the man carrying the knife.
The man carrying the knife did not retreat but moved forward. He took a big step forward and stabbed Maud with the knife without hesitation.
He wanted to take advantage of the weapon's length and kill Mod with one blow.
However, Maud suddenly ducked down, narrowly avoiding the stabbing knife, and then, two rays of knife light flashed past in an instant.
Maude passed over the man carrying the knife, turned around suddenly, put his heels on the ground to slow down, and at the same time looked at the back of the man carrying the knife.
A moment later, the man carrying the knife spurted a blood arrow from his wrist and throat.
The whole process to the end is in a flash of lightning.
Seeing the man carrying the knife spurting blood, Maud took a few steps forward, stabbed the man carrying the knife in the lower back with his dagger, and at the same time pushed the man carrying the knife to the ground.
Afterwards, he quickly searched for the bounty warrant from the prey that had lost its combat power and glanced at it.
After confirming the names, he immediately summoned a notebook, and before the three preys took their last breath, they quickly wrote down the information of the three people with a quill pen.
"Caught up."
After writing the last word, Maud slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Tsk."
At this time, a surprising sound suddenly came from the end of the alley behind him.
Maud was startled when he heard the sound and took down the hunter's note reflexively.
The blood stains on the notes suddenly turned into blood beads and fell to the ground.
After that, he took a step and squatted down, pulled out the flintlock pistol from the prey's waist, then turned around and pointed the muzzle at the owner of the voice.
Chapter 29 Nothing
The muzzle of the gun was quickly aimed at the figure.
Before she could see the appearance clearly, Maude decisively pulled the trigger.
boom-
The lead bullet flew directly towards the figure's eyebrows.
The figure didn't expect Maude to be so cruel, and he fired directly without giving him any room to talk.
Although the incident happened suddenly, the figure relied on his unusual reaction and danger perception to lean back suddenly, narrowly avoiding the lead bullet aimed at the center of his eyebrows.
Even though he dodged the lead bullet, he couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
"I@#%#@%… !!!"
The figure was actually Wolf Rat, who came out of the bar to check the situation after hearing the noise.
He was just watching, but he was almost killed and cursed in anger.
boom-
Another lead bullet flew towards the wolf rat's body.
At this time, it was just the time when the wolf rat had just straightened its body.
But after all, he is an animal type fruit ability user. With his excellent physical fitness, he can twist his body forcefully.
However, there was still no time to turn away, because after the first shot failed, Moder decisively placed the second shot on the body with a higher hit rate.
The second lead bullet hit the left side of the wolf rat's abdomen, splattering with blood.
“Your uncle, I’m just here to watch, what do you think?!!!”
Wolf Rat covered his bleeding belly and looked at the masked Maud in disbelief.
If he hadn't "sniffed" out Maud's identity by smell, he wouldn't have talked nonsense now and directly taught Maud what it meant to be polite before fighting.
Maud looked at the completely unfamiliar wolf rat with a blank expression.
He threw away the two flintlock pistols he had taken from the prey at his feet, then slowly squatted down and pulled out the dagger inserted in the waist of the man carrying the knife.
