The traveling frog is living a carefree life in the Marvel universe.

“White, White Night…” Mariko was stunned for a moment, then said, “If I wasn’t mistaken, the bullet you fired curved?”

John McLean was also shocked. Although he had thought that his cousin's friend must be someone extraordinary, he never expected that this extraordinary person could actually make a bullet curve.

Is this kind of manipulation, which could turn Newton's coffin lid upside down, really something a normal person could do?

“Obviously, yes.” Bai Ye blew away the gunpowder smoke from the muzzle of his gun and said calmly, “This is called arc shooting, also known as gunfighting. It’s a powerful shooting ability that combines martial arts, swordsmanship, and gun techniques. Through numerous shooting experiments and analysis, as well as statistical principles, the trajectory of bullets and the enemy’s position in gunfights can be summarized by statistical models. Thus, based on this, gunfighting, which includes shooting, swordsmanship, and physical techniques, was created.”

"With precise motion calculations, it launches attacks with maximum damage from the position that minimizes personal injury, and can shoot into any blind spot around it, increasing bullet power by 20%. Centered on its own body and using the prototype geometry as a planar reference, all potentially attackable positions around it are calculated, and every possible direction of attack around the body can be hit, allowing it to exist simultaneously as an offensive and defensive weapon."

"In layman's terms, the shooter makes the bullet curve by rapidly flicking his wrist the moment it leaves the barrel. This is the legendary gun-fu technique!"

In this world, Bai Ye had an ex-girlfriend named Fire Fox. He had tried to learn gun-fu from Fire Fox, but he didn't seem to have any talent for it and couldn't learn it. However, after eating the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, Bai Ye tried to practice this arc shooting technique. When he wrapped lightning around the bullets he fired, he was able to achieve an arc shooting technique in a unique way.

—Well, saying that Firefox was his ex-girlfriend isn't quite accurate, because Firefox seemed to have a husband before Bai Ye met her.

"Bai Ye, does gun-fu really exist in this world?" Mariko asked. "Could it be some kind of superpower?"

Byakuya: "Mariko, if you use Yashida Industries' resources to investigate an organization called the Assassin's Guild, you'll find out that curved shooting is the Assassin's Guild's signature move, and it's very famous in the underworld."

Shingen Yashida snapped out of his dazed state, looking rather disheveled:

“Mariko, this gentleman is not wrong. In the underworld, there is indeed an assassin organization called the Assassin’s Guild, which is skilled in using gun techniques that can make bullets curve. I didn’t expect this gentleman to be able to do that as well.”

John McLean was a little dejected. Could it be that the people his cousin often associated with were all of this caliber? No wonder his cousin was always so elusive and seemed to have so much power.

"Come quick, the police cars are here!"

Aoki, who was standing by the window, suddenly spoke.

谷箢

So Mariko stopped asking questions and went to the window with Byakuya, watching NYPD run over.

Because John McLean threw the body of a robber downstairs, the case was immediately classified as at least a murder, which drew the attention of the NYPD.

There were quite a few people who came.

Under the command of the on-site commander, one team of ESU launched an attack.

When people mention the US SWAT team, many think of the Los Angeles Police Department's SWAT team, while the New York Police Department also has its own special operations team called the Emergency Response Team (ESU).

In addition to counterterrorism missions, the ESU also provides rescue and emergency medical services, such as in the event of major car accidents or building collapses. Formerly the city's machine gun squad, its history dates back to around World War II, and it was part of the New York City Police Department's Special Operations Division.

"Shit—!!"

John McLean slammed his fist on the floor-to-ceiling window in front of him:

“I told them that there are at least forty or fifty robbers here, and they are well-trained special forces soldiers with heavy firepower. They only sent these ten or so ESU members to attack? Are they sending them to their deaths?”

Sure enough, as soon as ESU arrived in front of the building, they were ambushed by the robbers. They were armed with heavy firearms, grenades, and even C4 bombs. In no time, the entire ESU team was wiped out by the robbers.

John McLean grabbed a handful of his hair.

Damn it, what a terrible team! They're impossible to carry!

"Is this all the New York City Police Department is capable of?" Shingen Yashida also felt it was absurd: "Being so easily defeated by robbers, it seems I need to reconsider Yashida Industries' investment in New York City."

"Look, there's an armored vehicle!"

Mariko's eyes lit up, and she pointed to the NYPD team, saying...

Bai Ye said, "It's no use. The robbers still have a considerable number of RPGs, and the armored vehicle is also in danger..."

Before Bai Ye could finish speaking, a line of fire shot out from below the building, hitting the armored vehicle directly.

"Fuck—!"

John McLean couldn't help but curse:

"Are those on-site commanders all brainless? Idiots, a bunch of complete idiots."

Next.

Several more PRGs were fired, hitting the armored vehicle.

As a result, the armored vehicle crashed.

"..."

"It seems we can't count on the NYPD to rescue us. If we want to escape, we'll have to rely on ourselves!"

Shingen Yashida picked up a shotgun from the ground and said with a cold expression.

“That’s right, relying on them is like hoping pigs can fly!” John McLean said, holding his gun. “We have to rely on our own strength to defeat the remaining robbers and rescue the hostages.”

The ESU team at the scene could at most draw the attention of the robbers by sacrificing their own lives; there was nothing else they could do.

"Okay, let's go together."

Bai Ye nodded in agreement.

Among those kidnapped by the robbers, most were innocent employees. The only two evil capitalists were Mariko and her father-in-law, and Lingcho. Since both were his own flesh and blood, Bai Ye had no choice but to get involved.

"Mariko, go hide with Aoki, we'll be back soon!"

"Yashida Shingen said."

Mariko was Shingen Yashida's only child. Even if he wasn't particularly close to Mariko, he couldn't have let her die without a reason.

According to Shingen Yashida, the odds of winning are very high if he goes with Byakuya and John McKellen to rescue the hostages, and there shouldn't be any major problems.

First of all, John McKellen is a one-in-a-hundred strongman, while Bai Ye is more like a peerless master among ten thousand. With such two amazing teammates, Shingen Yashida felt that this game was in the bag.

Secondly, among the hostages are his bodyguards, who are currently trapped because they are unarmed. Once they are given weapons, they will immediately become a powerful fighting force.

Finally, Shingen Yashida boasted that he was also a master of firearms and hand-to-hand combat, and that he could easily take on ten opponents at once.

After all, he's a man who can go toe-to-toe with Wolverine!

How could I be timid and afraid of trouble?

“No!” Mariko shook her head and said, “I want to stay with you. I can help fight too.”

"Nonsense!"

Shingen Yashida frowned.

"Alright, alright, let's stop arguing at a time like this," Bai Ye said. "Mr. Shingen, let Mariko come with us. I'm confident I can guarantee her safety."

Shingen Yashida had to swallow the reprimand that was on the tip of his tongue. Not only had Bai Ye just saved his life, but Bai Ye was also their biggest asset right now, and they couldn't afford not to help him.

And so.

Byakuya, John McKellen, Shingen Yashida, Aoki, and Mariko set off together to rescue the trapped hostages.

After Hans and other leaders were caught off guard and killed by Bai Ye and his men, the robbers' plans became somewhat chaotic. However, they were unsure of Hans and the others' condition and dared not detonate the C4 bombs planted in the building without orders, otherwise they would also be left behind.

After taking down two patrol teams, Bai Ye and his group approached the hall where the hostages were being held.

In the darkness, Bai Ye saw Psylocke, and also saw John McKellen's wife Holly for the first time.

Holly isn't a stunning beauty, but she's certainly a very attractive woman. It's easy to think of the scenario, "Madam, you wouldn't want your husband to lose his job, would you?"

###Chapter 131 The Magic of Love Goes Round and Round###

There were indeed several dozen robbers in total, but that was just the right number of people needed to seal off a building.

The number of robbers guarding the building and fighting the NYPD must be considerable; otherwise, how could they withstand the attack from the ESU team and armored vehicles?

And that excludes the staff stationed throughout the building.

There were eight robbers in the hall where the hostages were being held.

John McLean said:

"If we can't quickly take down these eight robbers and let them fire indiscriminately, the hostages in the center of the hall will likely suffer heavy casualties."

Shingen Yashida said impatiently, "It's much better for a few people to die than for everyone to die together."

John McLean is a police officer, so he values ​​the lives of ordinary people a little more, but Shingen Yashida is a cold-blooded capitalist. In his eyes, what do a few lives matter?

He continued:

"Didn't you see the C4 bomb in the room? We just took out their leader, and they don't know it yet. But if we delay any longer, they might detonate these C4 bombs, and this whole floor will be blown to bits. None of the hostages will survive, and even we will be in danger!"

John McLean observed the situation in the hall. Due to the disappearance of their leader Hans and others, the robbers were clearly becoming agitated, though they hadn't yet erupted into violence.

But if they knew that their leader Hans and the others had been killed, it wouldn't be surprising if they did something utterly depraved.

John McLean was now faced with the trolley problem.

A madman has tied five innocent people to a trolley track. An out-of-control trolley is hurtling towards them and will run them over in moments. Fortunately, you can pull a lever to divert the trolley to another track. However, the problem is that the madman has also tied one person to the other track. Considering this situation, should you pull the lever?

He felt that whatever he did might be wrong.

"Actually, things aren't as complicated as you think."

Bai Ye suddenly smiled.

"How to say?"

John McLean looked at Bai Ye as if he had met a savior:

Do you have a better idea?

"You two are arguing like this because you think it's impossible for us to take down eight robbers in an instant, but that's not the case," Bai Ye laughed. "I can handle five of them in a second, so the two of you should be able to handle the other three without any problem, right?"

John McLean was shocked and asked, "How could you have taken down all five of them in an instant? You know, they weren't just ordinary thugs, they were elite mercenaries!"

Shingen Yashida also looked at Bai Ye with suspicion. He felt that Bai Ye might be talking nonsense. Unless he was a superhuman, it was impossible for someone to kill five people in an instant.

"You've narrowed your perspective."

Bai Ye shook his head and said:

"But you can't be blamed for that, because you've never seen a curved shot before."

“Observe them carefully. Are there five people standing on the same curved track?”

John McLean and Shingen Yashida looked over.

Indeed, there were five robbers who happened to be standing on a circular track.

"But this has nothing to do with you..."

John McLean suddenly fell silent, a look of sudden realization on his face:

"Could it be that your curved shooting allows the bullets to travel in circles, and that one shot is enough to take out five people standing on a curved track?"
