Flo Pirates.
The entire crew of the ship, whether they have eye problems or not, wears a one-eyed patch covering their right eye, as ordered by the captain, One-Eyed Flo.
"A ship is approaching!"
"It's a small boat."
A pirate standing at the sentry position saw Rhodes's boat approaching in the distance and reported below.
Upon hearing that it was a small boat, many pirates on the boat lost interest. Small boats usually have little treasure and are not worth plundering.
but.
Some people showed strange expressions and asked the sentry above: "You came over on your own initiative? Didn't you see our pirate flag?"
"Yes! They seem to be speeding up."
The sentry didn't pay attention at first, but when he noticed that Ross's boat was rushing towards this direction at full speed, he felt something was wrong for a moment.
Under normal circumstances, if you encounter a pirate ship, you don't just turn around and run away. How can you encounter a pirate group and rush up to it, unless... you are a pirate hunter!
Thinking of this, the sentry was suddenly startled.
"Go report the captain, he might be a pirate hunter!"
"Pirate hunter?"
Upon hearing the word "pirate hunter", the expressions of many pirates who were in low spirits changed. Someone quickly rushed into the cabin and reported to Captain Flo.
The one-eyed Flo was taking a nap. After being woken up by his men, he was very annoyed. He yawned and came to the deck outside, looking at the boat approaching in the distance:
"Pirate hunter? I'm one-eyed Flo, with a bounty of 27 million Baileys. Which pirate hunter dares to provoke me? I'm so impatient!"
"Kill them for me."
One-eyed Flo rubbed the back of his head and ordered to the pirate next to him.
"yes!"
Several pirates responded, quickly filled the cannon with gunpowder, aimed at the small boat on which Ross was riding, and started bombarding it.
The cannonballs drew arcs one after another and fell into the sea in the distance, bombarding huge waves in the sea.
"Shelling?"
Ross took a deep breath and said, "Robin, you go to the cabin first."
Although Ross's current twisting power can stop the slashing of ordinary swords, he is still unable to resist the bullets fired by the fire blunderbuss and the slashing with the rudimentary sword energy, let alone things like cannons.
Fortunately, these guys were pirates, and the bombardment was not as orderly as the navy. It even seemed a bit messy, unable to form a dense and terrifying rain of shells.
Moreover.
Ross didn't intend to block the cannonball... although it was difficult for him to block it.
He no longer needs this small boat. As long as this small boat can get close to the Flo pirate ship at a certain distance, he can jump directly over with his shave.
Whoosh!
A cannonball hit Ross, and Ross stepped hard with his foot, and his whole body moved away from the cannonball, avoiding the cannonball.
boom!
The cannonball fell on the bow of the ship, blasting the bow with wood chips flying and filling the air with gunpowder smoke.
"It is indeed not an easy task to use the fruit's ability to stop cannonballs, or to use a sword to deflect cannonballs."
Faced with being hit by a cannonball that would either kill him or seriously injure him, Rhodes seemed unusually calm, because with his current agility and speed, he could avoid the cannonball coming from a distance if he concentrated on it.
boom! boom! !
As the boat gradually approached the Flo pirate ship, the hit rate of the cannonballs began to become higher and higher, and the speed became more and more difficult to avoid due to the shortening of the distance.
Ross looked calm and stared at the Flo pirate ship directly in front of him. He had already concentrated his attention to the extreme. He would avoid any black shadow flying over him instantly.
"Captain, if this continues, we may not be able to reach the other side's ship."
Robin hid in the cabin with several big holes, observing the situation outside. He conjured a mouth on the pillar next to Ross and spoke to Ross.
Ross glanced at the lips conjured on the pillar with a strange look, but the flower fruit's ability was to conjure a part of the body anywhere. He knew this very well and was not surprised.
He responded calmly: "Don't worry, you don't need to get too close."
Fifty meters…
Forty meters…
Thirty meters…
Ross stared at the Flo Pirates' ship and judged the distance.
"The distance is enough!"
Ross's eyes flashed, and he jumped up without hesitation, jumping to the highest point of the boat. Then he stepped hard, causing the wood of the boat to shatter and splash, and the whole person drew an arc in mid-air. line, falling towards the Flo Pirates' pirate ship.
On the ship of the Flo Pirates, many pirates were looking at the boat crumbling in the gunfire with evil faces and evil smiles. Suddenly they saw a figure jumping up and rushing towards this side, and they were all stunned for a moment.
"Be careful up there!"
"Captain! Someone is coming!"
When many pirates reacted, Rhodes had already hit the sail of the Flo Pirates. He released the force from the sail and landed lightly on the mast.
The distance of this jump was obviously not something that ordinary people could achieve. Many pirates looked shocked. Some looked up and vaguely felt that Ross's figure was familiar. Then they thought of something and their expressions changed.
"You are...Ghost-hand Rhodes! Ghost-hand Rhodes killed the captain of the Navy branch and was rewarded by the government with a bounty of 40 million beli!"
"Very good, you can introduce yourself easily."
Ross calmly glanced at the pirates below, jumped up, and landed directly on the ship below. He looked at the pirates in front of him and said:
"Flo Pirates, I must have admitted my fault...my boat was damaged by you, so I'm sorry, I'll use your boat to compensate."
“…”
Several pirates standing next to Ross couldn't help but swallow.
Although they were all domineering pirates, the news said that Rhodes was extremely vicious. He slaughtered a small town by himself and even attacked the captain of the navy branch. His level of madness was far greater than theirs!
"I thought it was some blind pirate hunter, but I didn't expect it was you, pirate hunter... No, pirate, Ghost Hand Ross."
The one-eyed Flo came out from behind. The one-eyed eye stared at Ross, slightly narrowed, revealing a dangerous look.
Although Rhodes has a reputation for being evil, he is not someone to be trifled with. So what if there is a reward of 40 million beli? After all, there is only one person!
"If you want my ship, how about joining us?"
One-eyed Flo spread his hands towards Ross and said: "With your strength, if you join forces with me, there will be few opponents in the West Sea."
If Ross was a pirate hunter, he would have taken action long ago, but Ross is already a wanted pirate with a bounty on his head, and now he is alone. If he could get on his ship and become a combatant on his ship, the Flo Pirates would It is enough to travel across the Western Sea.
"The bounty is twenty-seven million Baileys, one-eyed Flo."
Ross stepped forward slowly and said indifferently: "Are you planning to become my subordinate?"
Flo's face darkened and he sneered: "It seems you haven't figured out what the situation is now, Ghost Hand Ross."
As he finished speaking, many pirates nearby pulled out their fire guns, held swords in their hands, and got into fighting postures.
