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

Chapter 191 Lu Qi's Choice
"It's a touching camaraderie, but you seem to have forgotten that emotions mean nothing to people like us."

Gismonda's tone was calm, even a little cold.

Because the current situation is almost a death sentence for Rob Lucci.

So much so that his posture, his vigilance, and the murderous intent emanating from his body slowly dissipated, and the face under the mask was full of sarcasm.

"Rob Luchi."

"Even if you weren't the one who leaked the Rokushiki, you are no longer valuable now that you have developed emotions about it."

Lu Qi was indifferent, but the bloodshot in his eyes became more and more obvious, making his eyes appear red under the moonlight, and he had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

The CP organization brainwashed him countless times since he was a child and told him countless times that everything he did was for justice and to eliminate evil.

But when the day came when he became evil, he realized how absurd this will was.

"What a joke!"

Lucci let out a roar, but the only answer he got was a gunshot.

boom!
When the bullet flew past Lucci's face, he realized that the bullet was not aimed at him, but at the already dying Kalifa. Then came the second shot, the third shot...

In just a few breaths, the bullets fired at Khalifa turned into a continuous flame, shooting at Khalifa like raindrops.

"Iron-steel!"

Lucci cursed inwardly, "The man is despicable!" But without any hesitation, he flashed in front of Kalifa.

when!
when!
when!
……

When the bullet hit the flesh and blood body, it made a sound like metal hitting each other.

Obviously, for Lucci, who has mastered the Six Styles and even practiced them to the point of comprehending life return and developing his own unique moves, ordinary bullets can no longer pose any threat to him.

As a member of CP0, how could Gismonda not know this truth? He gave a subtle look to the sniper beside him.

The sniper understood.

He deftly ejected the bullet from the barrel, then replaced it with a bullet specially made for people with special abilities and pulled the trigger again.

The whole process took less than a second.

"Um--!"

A strong sense of crisis suddenly arose in Lucci's heart, as he had just awakened his observation Haki.

Stronger than ever before!
It’s all going to be terrible!
It’s all going to be terrifying!

He instantly understood what this was:
"Hai Lou Shi!"

The CP organization is another violent organization under the World Government, running parallel to the Navy. Although the two organizations' military forces are not at the same level, they are equal in terms of authority.

The navy has an ample supply of seastone, even enough to incorporate seastone into the outer armor of warships.

How could there not be a CP organization?
At this moment, every cell in Lu Qi's body and every consciousness in his brain were reminding him of the same thought:
escape!
escape!
escape!
But Lucci understood it at this moment.

The other party was not aiming at herself but at Khalifa's head. If Khalifa was still alive after the first two gunshot wounds, then she would definitely die from this shot!

There was no possibility for him to break out of the encirclement with such a burden.

The best solution is of course to give up Kalifa directly. Even Kalifa's words just now helped him unload the last burden in his heart.

It was she who chose to use her life to help me break out of the encirclement...

This thought flashed through Lucci's mind instantly, and he made a decision, but the remaining instinct in his body still made him take actions that were completely contrary to his rational judgment.

laugh--!
The seastone bullet hit Lucci's body and instantly broke into tiny fragments, embedding deeply into his flesh and blood.

At this moment, Lucci lost all his strength to resist and fell to the ground with a thud, because seastone can not only suppress the power of devil fruits, but also make the user of the power fall into a weak state.

When the hot blood hit Khalifa's face, there was only indescribable emotion in her eyes.

"Ah la~"

There was a sense of helplessness and indescribable satisfaction in Khalifa's voice.

At least at this moment, we have all found something that is truly worth sacrificing our lives for, rather than the so-called justice written on paper or living in the mouths of these people~
"Lucci, it turns out you can do such a stupid thing."

"This is what people like us deserve."

……

"stop!"

As Lucci fell, Gismonda slowly raised his hand, and the surrounding gunfire stopped instantly, but the muzzle of the gun was still coldly pointing at Lucci and the other man.

Gismonda lowered his eyes, looked down at him, and said calmly:
"What is the purpose of the Gawain Pirates entering the Grand Line? What are they planning?!"

"Tell me, I'll give you a quick death!"

Lucci gasped for breath, but a smile appeared on his face at this moment:
"Who knows?!"

"But that guy is much more humane than you."

"court death!"

Gismonda's eyes suddenly turned cold.

He turned and waved.

The CP organization agents understood what he meant and pulled the trigger at the same time without any hesitation.

But before the flintlock could spit out fire, a dark figure came rushing towards them from a distance.

laugh!
laugh!
laugh!
Everyone only saw several silver-white blade beams suddenly appear in the air, and the next moment the flintlock rifles in their hands were cut off along with the bullets that had not yet been fired, and their hands also fell to the ground.

"Who?!"

Gismonda instantly felt terrified. The sense of crisis brought by his observation Haki made him instinctively wrap his arms around his body with his Armament Haki, and the next moment he collided with the incoming blade...

when!
After a loud bang, the person who came retreated violently.

Under the moonlight.

Gismonda looked up.

All he saw was a thin man in a black suit with sharp claw knives on his fingertips, looking at him coldly.

"Baiji-Kro!"

"The Gawain Pirates are also going to interfere in the affairs of the CP organization?!"

"Who knows?!"

Clo spread his hands, with a trace of helplessness on his face. He did not look back at Lucci behind him, but just said lightly:
"If they were allowed to die here, that stubborn guy would be in great pain."

"So can you please give me some face? Let's just leave it at that?"

Gismonda came back to his senses, raised his hand and patted the dust off his clothes, raised his chin slightly, and resumed his superior attitude.

Before he took action, he had already obtained the detailed information of the knight Gawain, so he naturally knew how long Gawain had been scheming and how much effort he had put in to obtain the title of Shichibukai.

Such a person would definitely not give up his own interests for the sake of an undercover agent.

Besides, standing behind me is the World Government!
The fact that Gao Wen was willing to bow to the World Government in exchange for the privileges of the Seven Warlords of the Sea proves that he does not have the courage to go against the World Government!

Gismonda confirmed his thoughts and replied with just one word:

"roll!"

Clo's face suddenly turned pale, the knife on his fingertips flashed with a cold light, and the murderous intent in his heart was even more severe.

Just as he was about to make a move, he heard Gawain's teasing laughter:
"Ah la ah la~"

"I told you your face is worthless, right?!"

Under the moonlight.

The sea breeze continued to blow over, hitting the agents, bringing an indescribable chill. Gawain's figure slowly approached from a distance.

He did not draw his sword, nor did he use the power of his fruit. Even the murderous intent around him was completely restrained.

However, the overwhelming sense of oppression still made the CP agents present breathless, and many of the wounded even fainted on the spot.

"Overlord and domineering?!"

Gismonda frowned.

If there was only one Baiji Kro, he would still have the confidence to escape unscathed.

After that, we just need to report everything that happened tonight to the World Government, and the only thing waiting for Knight Gawain is a joint wanted order from the Navy and the World Government.

The so-called Seven Warlords of the Sea have never remained static.

The old ones fall and the new ones take their place.

After all, didn’t Gawain succeed in taking the position by replacing Moonlight Moriah in the first place?
But when Gao Wen arrived, the situation was different.

With the terrifying destructive power he displayed in the Drum Kingdom, the Cactus Islands might be wiped off the map by him.

This man really has the ability to keep everyone here.

but……

Gismonda's gaze fell on Lucci who was badly injured in the distance, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

They know too much, even about the World Government and the CP organization. Once that information falls into the hands of pirates, the impact will be immeasurable.

in a moment.

Gismonda made up his mind:
Rob Lucci will die tonight!

"You want to interfere in the internal affairs of the CP organization?!"

He looked up at Gawain and shouted, but his finger accidentally touched the sniper next to him.

The latter understood, and when the time was right he raised the flintlock in his hand towards Lucci, but before he could even pull the trigger, a sharp sound of breaking through the air was heard in the distance.

boom!
A bullet flew in from the end of everyone's sight in the night sky, and the next moment the barrel of the gun in the CP organization's sniper's hand exploded on the spot and was completely torn apart.

His head exploded like a watermelon, and red and white flesh and blood fell on Gismonda's mask. The fishy smell rushed into his nostrils, making him feel nauseous.

For someone like him, there shouldn't be any physiological reaction to death and flesh and blood. If there is, it can only be due to one reason...

fear!

This guy, this guy, this guy has absolutely no respect for the World Government!
He opened his mouth, but his mouth felt dry and he couldn't utter a word.

"Sniper!"

"Super sniper!"

A name instantly appeared in his mind, and made the surrounding agents, who were already frightened by Gawain's arrival, tremble all over.

"Otokoshi-Van Oka!"

"You want to be an enemy of the World Government?"

"You cannot represent the World Government, and you seem to have forgotten one thing. The source of the Seven Warlords' privileges has never been the World Government's awarding of honors, but their own powerful combat power!"

Gawain's voice was extremely indifferent, and what he said was a fact that was very common in his eyes, but the man in front of him, who worked in the confidential department of the World Government, was not aware of this at all.

However, this is the place that gave birth to Spandam and his son, so there are certainly more than just those two fools.

Gawain didn't even look at Gismonda. He looked at Lucci and Kalifa and said calmly:
"Now it's time for you to make a choice: to completely leave the World Government and become my companion, or to die here."

"My patience is limited."

Lu Qi slowly opened his eyes, but did not immediately answer Gao Wen's words. Instead, he asked:

"When did you discover our purpose?"

"In the beginning."

Lu Qi was stunned, with a self-deprecating expression on his face:

"Sure enough, my anxiety was right. From the beginning, we were like two clowns in front of you."

"Ha~"

He barely straightened up and looked at Gawain, and asked:

"I don't understand why you would..." even when facing us, your enemies.

"Who knows?"

Gao Wen stretched out his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose. Ah Jin's face suddenly appeared in his mind and he sighed:

"Ajin really likes you guys."

"..."

Lu Qi was silent for a moment.

The world government to which I am loyal regards me as a tool, and will abandon me without hesitation once I lose my usefulness, or even just because of a hint of suspicion.

But a man who had only met her once, heard her speak a few words, had a few drinks with her, and been on the same boat with her, could risk his life to stop the enemy for her.

This world is really...

crazy!

Should I change the way I live?

As Lucci hesitated, he heard Kalifa's weak voice.

"Hey, Captain~"

Kalifa managed to sit up straight, leaning against the stone wall behind her.

She habitually raised her hand to touch the golden hair on her forehead and adjusted her clothes.

Then she looked at Gawain. The blood at the corners of her mouth and all over her body made her look even more tragic.

Her eyes were like a pool of autumn water, extremely moving, and the emotions brewing in them were completely undisguised.

"Who is more beautiful, me or Princess Guinevere?"

The sudden question made Gawain stunned. He then realized that the one who was most seriously injured was not Lucci, but Kalifa.

The gunshot wound in her chest had damaged her lungs.

The bullet that hit the thigh directly tore off a large piece of flesh.

If you don’t get timely treatment, you may die in the next second, or even right now.

Gao Wen wanted to clarify the misunderstanding, but the answer turned out to be:
"You'll have a chance to find out if you survive."

"What an unromantic man."

A smile appeared on Khalifa's lips, and then she slowly closed her eyes. Her chest rose and fell more and more violently, which was her constant struggle for survival.

When Lu Qi saw this scene, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he made up his mind at this moment:
"Kalifa, let's live again! Even if we have to fall into evil ways!"

Accompanied by words.

Lu Qi's eyes became more determined. He turned to look at Gawain, barely supported his weak body, half-knelt in front of Gawain, and said solemnly:

"Former CP9 member, animal-type - Cat-Cat Fruit - cheetah form ability user, Rob Lucci!"

"Captain Gawain, let me on board!"
