On the deck, there were corpses everywhere.
A large amount of blood flowed out, gathered into a stream, flowed downwards, and finally passed through the railings and fell into the sea.
Thales looked coldly at Violet, who seemed to be expecting something, and after a moment he looked at his men who were about to lose their patience.
"Go deal with the people inside."
"oh!!!"
When the pirates heard this, they roared with excitement.
The so-called solution is the highlight after the robbery.
The pirates, whose breathing gradually became heavier, reluctantly looked away at Violet and Rebecca, and then looked at the wooden door of the cabin, like a hungry wolf with green eyes.
After giving the order, Thales ignored his men and carried Rebecca, who was moaning in pain, towards Violet step by step.
The pirates on the deck couldn't wait to rush to the cabin.
But at this moment.
Suddenly there was a harsh roar in the sky.
The pirates on the deck were slightly startled and looked in the direction of the sound as a reflex reaction. They saw a majestic shock wave covered in white light, like a comet, hitting the sea in the distance diagonally.
"boom!"
The shock wave submerged into the sea, causing an extremely violent explosion in an instant.
Turbulent air waves swept in all directions, and large amounts of white waves rushed into the sky.
The sudden shocking scene made the pirates on the deck, including Thales, look horrified.
"Then, what is that...?"
The pirates all opened their mouths.
This is the first time they have seen this kind of situation in the new world for many years.
When they were here, how could they possibly think that the shock wave falling from the sky was actually caused by human hands.
"Fortunately, it didn't end up with us..."
The pirates watched the huge waves in the distance turn into showers and fall, and the waves driven by the air waves finally calmed down in front of the ship. They were all frightened and afraid.
Fortunately, the terrifyingly powerful shock wave hit far enough away.
if not…
Just imagining it made the pirates feel cold and their scalps numb.
However, could this inexplicable shock wave from the sky be a natural phenomenon like thunder, which occasionally strikes down unreasonably
Thinking of this, the pirates swallowed their saliva and looked at the thick white clouds everywhere in the sky with fear in their eyes.
You can see a huge hole penetrated above the clouds.
This phenomenon has exceeded their understanding of the climate of the New World.
The pirates were frightened and paralyzed, and their excitement for enjoyment slowly faded away.
Thales was also silent, looking up at the huge hole above the clouds, with a look of shock in his eyes.
For example, he only regards this shock wave of unknown origin as part of the environmental climate of the new world.
"We can't stay long, we have to leave here quickly..."
Thales' heart was solemn and he muttered to himself.
"Then it's better to stay."
In my ears, a magnetic voice suddenly came.
"Um?!"
Hearing the strange voice ringing in his ears, Thales' expression changed. The moment he made a move, his shoulders suddenly felt cold.
Looking in shock, blood shot out and splashed on his face and eyes.
In the blood-stained vision, a tall figure walking forward could be seen.
The figure was holding Rebecca, who was supposed to be in his hand, with one hand, while the other hand was holding a thick, bloody arm.
That's his arm.
Thales' eyes narrowed sharply.
It was also at this time that the pirates on the deck reacted.
"captain!!!"
The pirates looked at Thales in shock as his arm was suddenly torn off.
And the strange figure that appeared out of thin air.
And this elusive figure is naturally Maud who came from the terrifying three-masted ship.
Wow—
The pirates suddenly raised their weapons towards Mod's back.
Mod ignored the many pirates behind him and walked forward.
The soles of his feet fell into a pool of blood, causing ripples in circles.
Violet raised her upper body with difficulty and stared blankly at Maud, who was walking towards her, with ripples in her heart.
It’s really here…
She murmured to herself in her heart, and it was difficult to explain what she was feeling now.
But one thing is for sure.
The moment she saw Maud, she felt reassured.
Rebecca, who was held in Maud's arms, slowed down slightly, then raised her head with difficulty and looked at Maud's side face.
After seeing Maud's appearance clearly, Rebecca was also startled, and an incredible light appeared in her eyes.
Why is this man here
Rebecca's heart aroused huge waves.
Maud felt Rebecca's gaze and ignored it, casually throwing away Thales' broken arm.
The severed arm spun and flew toward the sea outside the ship, scattering a lot of blood along the way.
“…”
Thales' face paled slightly, and he could only watch his arm fall into the sea.
The pirates on the deck were furious.
"Where did that guy come from!!!"
"They unexpectedly attacked Captain Thales and killed him!"
"shot!!!"
Thales did not give an order, but this group of pirates who had been in the new world for many years knew exactly what to do now.
About thirty pirates who were very confident in their marksmanship quickly raised their guns and pointed them at Mod's back.
"Bang bang...!"
After taking aim, the pirates pulled the trigger without hesitation.
There was a sudden burst of gunfire on the deck.
Lead bullets filled with heat flew through the smoke and towards Maud's back.
However.
The expected scene of blood splattering did not happen.
Nearly a hundred lead bullets that flew towards Maude's back seemed to be frozen in time and stood still behind Maude, hanging in mid-air densely like that.
"Energy person...!!!"
Seeing the many lead bullets fired and hovering motionless behind Mod, the thirty or so pirates who fired were suddenly startled.
"Keep shooting, I don't believe he can stop all the bullets!"
A fierce-looking pirate spoke fiercely, took out a spare gun from his body, and aimed it at Mod.
The others who had fired just now also followed suit and took out their backup guns.
They are all people with accurate marksmanship and carry at least two guns with them.
"Bang bang bang...!"
Another round of firepower poured out.
Regrettably.
The bullet fired at Maude for the second time still hovered.
It was as if there was an invisible wall behind Maud, intercepting all the bullets.
"What kind of ability is this?!"
The pirates were stunned.
Maud never looked back at the pirate from beginning to end. She bent down and put down the confused Rebecca, and then looked down at Violet who wanted to get up but couldn't.
"Your abilities are pretty good."
Maud opened her mouth to praise Violet's ability, paused, and asked, "Can you answer me a question?"
"good… "
Violet supported the ground, raised her head to look at Maud as much as possible, and tried her best to suppress the indescribable emotions surging from deep in her heart.
However, there was no longer any despair in her eyes, replaced by a crystal luster.
"Have you awakened your abilities?"
"Awakening...?"
Violet was slightly startled, and the image of Doflamingo flashed through her mind like lightning.
Regarding the awakening of the devil fruit's ability, she had heard the members of the Don Quixote family talk about it, and she also knew that awakening the ability was as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Almost all the cadres of the Don Quixote family are capable people.
But Doflamingo is the only one who has reached the level of awakening.
Violet thought of the wonderful feeling of using the ability just now.
turn out to be…
This is ability awakening.
"Um."
Violet hesitated for a moment, then nodded towards Maud.
She unconsciously integrated her knowledge and experience into her ability to stare, and she just thought that she had awakened the ability.
Otherwise, she just used her ability and it would be impossible to accurately locate Mod's location.
Especially at such a high place...
At least when she used her ability, she never expected that Maud would be in that position.
"It is not an easy task for a superhuman to awaken. You are very powerful and have good abilities."
Maud looked at Violet carefully.
He probably remembered.
When he went to Dressrosa last time, he also considered recruiting Violet, who had the ability to stare, into his army, but nothing happened.
Now.
Violet, who has awakened her abilities, is more valuable to recruit.
Violet couldn't resist Maud's scrutinizing gaze and slowly lowered her head.
