How can I become the Pirate King if you don’t work hard?.

Chapter 178 I also want to know

"It's Fan Oka!"

Ah Jin was the first to react, with a hint of surprise in his eyes:
"Our support is coming!"

His body, which was already on the verge of its limit, now squeezed out the last bit of strength.

A layer of flowing white bones flowed out of Ajin's body and condensed into a cannon on his shoulder.

"That guy is proficient in Armament Haki and is also a user of special abilities. This kind of attack can't kill him. Lucci and Zoro, stop that guy and find an opportunity for Van Oka!"

"Understood, Captain!"

The two responded, then took a deep breath, stepped forward at the same time, and rushed towards Fuzifu in the distance in an instant.

With Van Oka joining the battlefield, the balance of victory has tilted towards the Gawain Pirates.

Ajin burst out his last bit of strength and fired the bone cannon on his shoulder again. A wave of air gushed out, and a bone bullet hit the target at a speed far exceeding the speed of sound.

boom!
Fuzifu barely dodged the bone bullet by turning sideways, but he felt dizzy and couldn't even maintain his human-beast form. His body was extremely weak.

"Something's wrong!"

"Seastone bullets?!"

Fuzifu was shocked and terrified, especially when he saw Lucci and Zoro coming to kill him.

He ignored the pain and raised his hand to knock the seastone bullet off his forehead. Only then did he feel some strength restored in his body.

"Roar!"

After a tiger roar, Fuzifu transformed into human-beast form again. He repelled the attacking Zoro and Lucci. When he was about to kill them, he felt an inexplicable chill.

"It's that sniper!"

In a panic.

Fuzifu looked around, but all he saw was the vast ocean behind him and the endless snowfield in the distance.

Even though he had already mastered the Observation Haki, he was still unable to sense the location of the mysterious sniper.

"retreat!"

"If you keep fighting I'll die!"

He had fought in battles for more than 30 years and had thought that guns, cannons, and swords no longer posed a threat to him.

But the feeling of being on edge at this moment made him truly understand how terrible a top sniper could play in a battle.

"He should have been there a long time ago, but he has been waiting for the right moment to turn the tide of the battle in an instant!"

"That's why I shot at the moment when I was most proud and relaxed!"

Think this through.

Fuzifu felt a chill down his spine and he no longer cared about anything else but retreated quickly.

Also at this moment.

A burning figure appeared in the sky, whistling from afar, like a scarlet meteor across the sky.

"ember!"

"I'm here!"

A hint of joy flashed in Fuzifu's eyes.

Jin saw Fuzifu's miserable state, and then looked at Ajin and the other two who were covered in blood in the distance, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes:
"Knight Gawain has a strength that can rival mine. Even his subordinates, if they join forces, can fight Fuzifu to this extent?!"

"monster!"

He couldn't help but let out a sigh, then swooped down, grabbed Fuzifu's body, and rushed towards the distant sky.

"Damn it!"

There was a flash of reluctance in Lucci's eyes.

After fighting to this extent, what he wants is not only to repel Fuzifu, but to keep him here completely!
"You're just going to let him get away like that?!"

"I really can't accept this, woooo——!"

Zoro groaned, then felt weak and fell on his back. It was obvious that the long battle had exhausted him.

At this moment, the opponent escaped, and the string that had been supporting him was instantly broken. He completely lost consciousness, and only the rising and falling of his chest proved that he was still alive.

Ajin on the side also lost the strength to fight again. Looking at Fuzifu walking away, his heart was filled with indescribable unwillingness.

This was especially true after seeing the smug smile on Fuzifu's face.

high in the air.

Fuzifu looked at the three figures that were getting smaller and smaller, and couldn't help showing a hint of pride in his eyes. He raised his hand, scratched his neck, and mouthed:
"next time."

"I'll kill all of you!"

……

"Yeah?!"

far away.

On a mountain, Fan Oka saw Fuzifu's actions through the scope. He looked indifferent and murmured:
"It's a pity you won't have a next time."

Fan Oka took a deep breath and then pulled the trigger...

boom!
Fire burst from the muzzle.

The recoil pushed his body forward, and a bullet created a series of sonic booms in the air, shooting towards Fuzifu...

laugh!
Fuzifu only felt that his chest was hit by a punch, without any pain, only an indescribable chill.

He lowered his head and saw a bullet hole piercing his heart, with blood gushing out.

“Kuh!”

Fuzifu opened his mouth, but he could no longer speak as the gushing blood had blocked his throat.

He followed the direction from which the bullet came and finally saw the person who killed him, a tall and thin man holding a rifle with a muzzle like a trumpet.

This is when I'm most relaxed again?! What a terrible man!

The next moment, Fuzifu completely lost consciousness.

"Fuzif?!"

Jhin realized something was wrong and stopped to look, only to find that the Fuzifu he was holding in his hand had become a corpse.

He was burning with rage, but when he noticed a red figure rushing towards him from behind, he felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him.

The one-on-one battle just now has proved that before seeing through Gawain's weakness, it would be impossible for Jin to even defeat Gawain, let alone capture him alive as Kaido ordered.

now.

Even if he was unwilling to admit it, he had already lost the battle at this point.

Jin said nothing, holding onto Fuzifu's body, and walked away along the sea surface, only the resentment and anger in his heart burned more and more fiercely:

The game has just begun!
The next time I see through your weakness, that will be your defeat!
……

Estuary.

Gawain landed with a bang, and after seeing that Akinsolon and the others were only injured and not in danger of life, he felt relieved.

When he learned the full story of the battle from the crew and Ajin, his expression became more and more strange when he looked at Lucci.

"Because a Fuzifu shouldn't let him fight to this extent, right?!"

"And no matter how you look at it, the best option for him was to listen to Ajin's instructions and leave with Khalifa..."

"Is this a true feeling coming out of undercover?!"

Gao Wen was confused, but he didn't show it on his face.

In short, before the system truly recognizes Lucci and the others and provides corresponding bonuses, the other party's heart is not with them. No matter how Lucci and the others perform, they can never be included in the category of their own people.

Moreover, human beings are extremely complex creatures. It is normal for them to take actions that are inconsistent with rational judgment and interests because of momentary emotions.

A few minutes later, Fan Oka hurried over from a distance.

He looked at the three wounded men, and seeing that they were not seriously injured, he looked at Gawain, his chin slightly raised, his eyes full of pride:
"Does it still depend on the favor of fate in the end?"

"I know you're awesome."

Gao Wen shook his head helplessly and laughed:

"I'll leave these three wounded to you. Help them with emergency treatment. Also, contact Kalifa and the others who have been evacuated and have them return to the ship and wait for orders."

"Now that the Beast's troops have been repelled, I will go to support Clo."

After that, Gawain instantly spread out a pair of dragon wings with a wingspan of nearly ten meters on his shoulders. With a light flap, he pushed his body to rush into the distance, and disappeared into the clouds in a few breaths. Fan Oka smiled, and carried the three almost completely exhausted people onto the deck one by one.

The rough action hurt Zoro so much that he wanted to curse, but he didn't even have the energy to argue.

After getting on board, Fan Oka got some hemostatic drugs from the ship's doctor's room, and then he skillfully stopped the bleeding, disinfected, and sutured the wounds for the three people.

Time flies and half an hour has passed.

With their wounds bandaged, Ajin and Lucci sat side by side on the deck, looking at the sea in the distance, not knowing what they were thinking for a moment.

half an hour.

Ajin said:

"Actually I'm not stupid."

Lu Qi was stunned when he heard this, but he had a bad feeling in his heart.

Seeing Luqi's sudden silence, Ajin became more certain of his judgment.

At that time, it didn't matter whether Lucci obeyed the order directly and followed Kalifa away, or turned around and stayed with him.

But the problem lies in the hesitation and deliberation he showed for a moment after hearing what Fuzifu said.

Ah Jin smiled slightly and said:
"From the first moment I saw you, I knew that you and I were the same kind of people."

“Once you decide on something, even if you know it’s wrong, you will carry it out accurately.”

"But I'm luckier than you. I've met Captain Gawain, but you haven't."

"you……"

Ajin reached out and patted Lu Qi's shoulder, his tone becoming more serious:

"I gave you and Kalifa the opportunity to get on board. If one day you really do something irreparable, I will kill you with my own hands."

Lu Qi was silent, only to feel the weight on his shoulders suddenly become heavier, like a mountain pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe. He was silent for a long while before he spoke:

"I understand. Captain Akin."

Ajin was stunned, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say much. He just slowly stood up and walked towards the cabin.

on the deck.

Lucci looked at the undulating sea in front of him.

The sea breeze hit him, bringing a biting and icy chill.

But at this moment, not only did he not feel cold, he could not even feel the pain from his wounds.

……

Time flies.

Half an hour passed.

Kalifa returned to the ship with the crew.

As everyone cheered for victory, Kalifa quietly sat next to Lucci.

The two have known each other for many years, have shared life and death many times, and have fought side by side from the sea of ​​blood. The relationship between them is no longer just that of ordinary colleagues.

They are true companions, even if they themselves are unwilling to admit it, no one denies it.

"Lucci, you..."

Kalifa could tell at a glance that something was wrong with Lucci. Considering Lucci's previous reaction, Kalifa instantly understood his inner struggle.

She reached out and patted Lu Qi's shoulder, comforting him:

"You are no longer in a condition suitable for continuing the mission. You still have a chance to escape unscathed before being discovered."

"After the trouble here is over, I will apply to Spandam."

"Do not."

"I applied to the CP organization."

Lu Qi was silent for a long time before he spoke:

"It's useless. Neither Spandam nor the World Government nor the justice we seek cares about the survival of our tools."

There was a hint of self-mockery in Lucci's voice, and Kalifa was even more stunned when she heard it.

It was because after all these years, this was the first time he heard such emotion from this ice cube, and there was even a hint of confusion in it...

"What happened?!"

"Ajin saw through my identity."

Kalifa's pupils shrank, her body instantly froze, and a cold light flashed in her eyes:

"I'll take care of him."

Just as she was about to make a move, she was held down by Lucci.

Kalifa turned her head and looked at Lucci in confusion, but heard words that made her even more confused.

"He helped me keep the news secret."

"Why?!"

Kalifa's face was full of astonishment:
"Why would anyone keep a knife around that could stab them at any moment?!"

If they initially wanted to pretend to be close friends in order to infiltrate Gawain's pirate group, the development of the situation has now exceeded her understanding.

Lu Qi stretched out his hand, inserted his five fingers into his hair, gritted his teeth and said:

"I also want to know what kind of reason could make that man make such a choice."

"so……"

"He can't die until we find out why."

"do you understand?"

Kalifa was stunned, she raised her hand and pushed her glasses indifferently, and for a moment she felt that Lucci was extremely strange at this moment.

There was something new about him that was unprecedented and hard to fathom.

Kalifa didn't know what this was, but she knew that she had never seen this within the CP organization or even among world government officials.

half an hour.

Kalifa whispered:

"I see."

……

The two were talking.

He hadn't noticed at all that in the observation tower on top of the mast of Raven Harbor, a pair of indifferent eyes were looking at him intentionally or unintentionally.

“Interesting~”

Fan Oka fiddled with the Den Den Mushi receiver in his hand, with an inexplicable smile on his lips.

This was naturally a wiretap Den Den Mushi. His purpose in shooting Kalifa in the snowfield before was to take the opportunity to install a wiretap Den Den Mushi on her. He didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.

"Even the agents of the World Government CP Organization have been shaken by the existence of that guy Ajin?"

"No!"

Fan Oka's eyes became clear:

"What really made them waver was the will of this pirate group due to the existence of the captain."

"I am more and more curious about where your fate will eventually go."

"Is it to completely break with the World Government and board our ship, or is it to step towards the end of life?"

between words.

Fan Oka took a towel and disassembled Qianlu's gun body, doing meticulous and comprehensive maintenance for it bit by bit.

Do it all.

Fan Oka turned his head and looked at the several chimney-shaped peaks above Dong Island, which were over 5,000 meters above sea level.

The purple spores condensed into a ball and surrounded the middle of the mountain, revealing an inexplicably enchanting beauty.

Fan Oka knew exactly how deadly those spores were. He murmured:
"I hope there won't be any accidents on Clo's side."
