A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

Oh no! We've fallen into a trap! They've lured us deep into their territory!

"Hehe, you're finished!"

The butcher grinned menacingly, raised his right foot, and kicked Cao Gui in the abdomen like a spring.

He stumbled back three steps, his back slamming into the carcass of Wagyu beef, a burning pain shooting through his abdomen.

However, the butcher's attack did not stop. He raised his left hand in an instant, and with a flash of gunfire, three bullets were fired at Cao Gui.

Then, he swung his arm in a wide circle, and with a "bang," a bullet arced through the air and struck Cao Gui's right rib from the side.

The aura of death enveloped Cao Gui, making him feel as if his soul had left his body, and cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

Six Styles - Paper Drawing!

Cao Gui dared not hold back any longer and exerted all his strength to manipulate the paper drawing, softening it along with the skeleton.

In an instant, Cao Gui's body shrank into a thin strip, and all three bullets aimed at his chest missed their mark.

At the same time, the spine bends forward, pushing the entire upper body into an arc, causing the bullet aimed at the right rib to miss its mark.

what! ?

The butcher's eyes were filled with disbelief. The way it had just appeared had exceeded the limits of the human body. No, the human body could not possibly deform to that extent!

Snapped!

Like the crack of a whip, Cao Gui made a strange sound the instant his body recovered.

Instantly, intense pain surged forth from the depths of the bones and muscles like a tsunami.

But now was not the time to catch his breath. Cao Gui gritted his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain, and took advantage of the butcher's momentary daze to burrow into the forest of meat behind him.

By the time the butcher came to his senses, Cao Gui had already vanished.

"Shit!"

The butcher was terrified and stepped forward to finish off Cao Gui.

But three gunshots forced him back to his original spot; this little FBI agent also had a gun!

On the other side, Cao Gui leaned against the wall, large beads of sweat constantly dripping from all over his body, his mouth tightly gripping the hilt of his knife.

The intense pain made the veins on his forehead bulge. He hadn't lost his fighting ability yet, but the pain prevented him from focusing on the battle.

"Hahaha, little FBI agent, I've got you! You look like you're in a lot of pain. Don't you have the strength to fight anymore?"

"Hahaha!"

Ahead, the butcher flashed out, the muzzle of his Tokarev pistol firmly locked onto Cao Gui.

"System, exchange for Zoro character card and equip it!"

[To exchange for the Zoro (Ignorant Version) character card, 140 merit points are required. Please confirm.]

"confirm!"

The situation was critical, and Cao Gui had no time to think. He immediately exchanged for Zoro's character card.

Cao Gui only has a sword and a spear, and there's no sniper in his character card, so he can only exchange for the one swordsman.

Instantly, a mysterious feeling surged into Cao Gui's entire body, but his strength and speed did not increase significantly.

But with a wealth of knowledge about sword techniques in his mind, the longsword in his hand became more fluid and effortless, as if it were part of his own body, and even the pain throughout his body was greatly reduced.

[Host equipped with character Kazoron (the arrogant version), effective for 300 seconds]

Cao Gui suddenly realized that the so-called "ignorance of one's own limitations" version could refer to Zoro's strength before challenging Mihawk.

From childhood, one is ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth; as an adult, one is clueless about east, west, south, and north.

That would indeed be incredibly arrogant. Judging from Cao Gui's perspective, let alone Hawkeye, he would have a hard time even taking on a major captain from headquarters.

However, none of this concerns Cao. The important thing right now is to deal with the butcher!

Cao Gui gripped the sword with both hands, and an inexplicable aura began to emanate from him—the aura unique to swordsmen!

In the distance, the smug butcher's expression changed instantly. For some reason, he felt inexplicably guilty, and the Tokarev pistol in his hand could no longer provide him with any sense of security.

"Little FBI agent, put down your weapons and surrender. You don't have a chance..."

Cao Gui stomped his foot and leaped out like a tiger released from its cage, his bloodthirsty and terrifying!

"Damn it, what happened to him!?"

The butcher was terrified and fired two shots, but with two clangs, Cao Gui actually cleaved the bullets in two with his knife. Before he could fire a third shot, Cao Gui's attack had already arrived.

"One-Sword Style: Demon Slash!"

The melodious sound of a sword echoed, and the butcher only felt a blur before his eyes, and an arm holding a pistol was severed at the shoulder.

"Ah—! Damn it!!"

The butcher clutched his severed arm, his face filled with horror. Although he didn't know what had happened to the kid, he knew he had failed now.

Escape! We must escape!

The butcher staggered and ran desperately toward the entrance of the cold storage.

Behind him, Cao Gui stroked his sword and sneered. Offending the navy and thinking he could just run away? Not so easy.

With a flick of his fingertip, wiping away a trace of blood, Cao Gui raised his knife once more.

"One-Sword Style: Demon Slash!"

puff!

The running butcher swayed and fell headlong, blood gushing out, a huge wound splitting from his left shoulder down to his spine.

"Pfft...cough cough..." The butcher spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes gradually unfocusing, and slowly said to Cao Gui:

"You...can't escape fate's judgment...the Brotherhood...will not let you go...you're dead..."

"The Brotherhood?" Cao Gui was taken aback. So that strange speed was bullet time. He then smiled disdainfully.

"Ha! Only the people can judge me. The Brotherhood? Destiny? How many divisions does it have?"

Chapter 13 Military Rank Promotion

Hey~

[Host has completed a 'Eliminate Evil' mission. Reward: 1000 Merit Points, 500 Experience Points]

Hey~

[Congratulations, host, you have reached 1000 experience points and your rank has been promoted to Navy Private First Class.]

[Reward: 500 Merit Points, Military Supplies (Uniform, Flintlock Pistol, Saber, 30000 Berries)]

Cao Gui was taken aback, then immediately opened the system panel:

【Justice Naval System (Supporting Every Naval Soldier with a righteous heart)】

[Soldier's Name: Cao Gui (Naval Private First Class)]

[Merit Points: 1505; Experience Points: 1050/5000]

[Taoist Power Value: 102 (A standard reflecting combat power, not a factor determining combat power)]

Looking at the refreshed system panel, Cao Gui breathed a sigh of relief. The harvest was not bad. But speaking of which, this person was actually a member of the Brotherhood?

When did I get involved with the fraternity?

Cao Gui frowned. If he remembered correctly, the Brotherhood had been tampered with by Sloan and turned into his assassination weapon.

How did Cao end up being targeted by Sloan? To the point that Sloan sent a top assassin skilled in bullet time and gunfighting to kill him?

Cao Gui never imagined it was because of the loom. He had no idea when he had become a heinous criminal, ending up on the list of those condemned by the loom of fate.

So what do we do now? Cao Gui stroked his chin. Sloan had suffered a great loss and would definitely not let it go, and he, Cao Gui, was not one to stand idly by.

We must get our revenge!

The problem is that the Brotherhood instance is quite large, and he can't clear it alone.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Cao Gui and the Butcher are evenly matched in strength, and Cao Gui completely crushes the Butcher with a character card that costs 140 merit points. In reality, it was the Butcher who was careless.

If he hadn't walked out so casually, but instead had cautiously used the terrain to his advantage, Cao Gui would definitely have died once the character card's timer expired.

Moreover, the Brotherhood has a considerable number of members, numbering over a hundred, with about ten core assassins. They lack favorable timing, location, and support, so pushing them would result in a disproportionate return on investment.

Cao Gui abandoned his idea of ​​storming the enemy camp in a fit of rage; he had a better plan: to lure the enemy out!

With the death of a key assassin, whether it's Sloan or the Brotherhood, one or two key assassins will definitely come to investigate. No matter how they investigate, they can't avoid me as their "target." When that time comes, it will be time for me to close the net.

As for the other side mobilizing a large number of people to deal with him... that possibility does not exist. Putting aside whether it is worth it for him, even if they dare to openly and aggressively mobilize all their forces, that would be exactly what Cao Gui wanted.

Don't forget that Cao is also an FBI agent and a second-generation snake (referring to a powerful figure in the Chinese Communist Party). He has plenty of ways to deal with these assassins.

Suddenly, a shadow flashed across the ground at the entrance of the cold storage. Cao Gui's eyes turned cold, and he picked up the Tokarev pistol that the butcher had dropped.

You fat bastard, you dare to scheme against me? You've got some nerve!

……

Outside the door, Fat Jeff paced anxiously. He heard several gunshots coming from inside, but he didn't know the outcome—whether the butcher was dead or Cao was dead.

The fat man shook his head. Cao was just a student; he was definitely finished.

The fat man thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, and finally decided to go in and take a look. He had to deal with this matter as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable if people found out that there was a dead body in his shop.

Tap, tap, tap, the fat man lightly patted the half-closed cold storage door:

"Mr. Mark, this is Jeff. I wanted to ask if you've finished your business?"

"..."

He was met with only silence.

"Mr. Mark?"

"..."

"Mr. Mark, may I come in?"

"..."
