Chapter 406 Spike?
"This guy is really good at hiding." Zhang Da stood on the roof of a house, feeling a little depressed.
Tom put one hand above his eyes as if looking into the distance, and nodded in agreement when he heard Zhang Daye's words.
The two of them had been looking for Priss for a while, but with Zhang Da's newly mastered Observation Haki, it was too difficult to find someone who was good at hiding, especially in a town with so many "noises".
The closest time to Precious until now was when Tom hit Annie with a stick at the beginning, and Precious shot Tom more than a dozen times as if to vent his anger, giving Zhang Da the opportunity to get close.
Precious's shooting skills are very good, but unfortunately his opponent is too strong. Although every shot is aimed very accurately, Tom only needs to jump a few times on the spot to catch up with Zhang Daye safely.
I even feel like drinking some water to moisten my throat.
Then the body leaked water like a shower head.
That's why Tom worked so hard to help find people. It was really humiliating to be beaten like that.
Whoosh~ The sound of a bullet cutting through the air, Zhang Da also raised the frying pan and blocked it with a bang.
"The level 4 helmet is really useful." Zhang Da also tried to catch the breath in that direction and said, "Let's go, Tom."
Tom understood, so he pouted, tiptoed a few times on the spot, and ran out quickly, running down from the roof along the wall, crossing the street, running along the wall to the roof, and then running across the roof and down along the wall.
Zhang Da also thought that the straight line between two points was the shortest, so he jumped directly from the rooftops, but in the end he still arrived one step later than Tom.
Maybe Tom's is the right way to go in a straight line.
Precious had moved again, and Tom was unwilling to give up and searched everywhere. He opened other people's windows to look, lifted the lids of trash cans to take a look, and even turned over small stones the size of a palm on the roadside.
Zhang Da also tried hard to resist the urge to take a look at the small stone that Tom turned over, but Tom ran over and lifted him up to look at the bottom of his feet.
“……”You are worthy of me, Tom.
"Calm down, calm down..." Zhang Da also tried to adjust his breathing rhythm, recalling the key points of Observation Haki, "Concentrate, everyone should have their own 'voice', this person should not be so strong that my Observation Haki will be ineffective."
As Zhang Daye's mind was highly concentrated, the surrounding environment suddenly became quiet, but at the same time it became noisy, and a large number of "sounds" within a radius of several hundred meters poured into his mind. He could clearly feel the position and strength of each "sound", and in addition, there seemed to be something else.
"That's the feeling..." After searching carefully, Zhang Da also realized that there was a 'voice' much stronger than that of an ordinary person nearby. It was definitely not the sniper he was looking for. If it was, he would have been discovered long ago.
There was also another "voice" that was quickly moving away from him, and its intensity was weaker than that of an ordinary person. This was obviously abnormal, it must be him!
"Soup……"
“Woof woof woof!”
“Meow~~~~”
A burst of rapid dog barking suddenly sounded, and then Tom also made a frightened cat cry and ran away. A huge bulldog was chasing Tom.
Zhang Da was also a little stunned, and for a moment he didn't even realize that it was Tom's cry. God had mercy on him. Although there were two cats on the ship, he had hardly heard a normal cat's cry. He almost forgot how a normal cat meowed!
And the creature chasing Tom looked familiar, so Zhang Da took a closer look: "Shit, Spike?"
Grayish-white skin, muscular body, sharp teeth, red collar, Zhang Da even thought that he had accidentally whipped Spike! Even the spirit chasing Tom and biting him was exactly the same as Spike!
It's no wonder that Tom was so scared. Spike is one of Tom's natural enemies, and his fighting power is far superior to Tom. Although Tom can occasionally fight back successfully, most of the time Tom doesn't dare to provoke him.
However, this bulldog is obviously not Spike, but the user of the Dog-Dog Fruit mentioned in the intelligence that Ye Yan had found out. This guy was probably hiding here for some mission, and was accidentally discovered by Tom.
Based on Zhang Da's understanding of Tom, it is likely that Tom accidentally stepped on his tail, or pinched his nose, which angered him. Of course, more extreme provocative behavior is not ruled out. Tom is gifted in making various animals angry.
The result was that Buu Dogg, who looked a lot like Spike, chased Tom relentlessly, and Tom fled frantically in a panic, sometimes on all fours, sometimes running upright, and sometimes switching to front-wheel drive, with his hind legs off the ground and shrinking in front of his body to escape Buu Dogg's big mouth, relying entirely on his front legs to escape.
A few seconds later, Tom had crashed through several houses, leaving large cat-shaped holes in various positions on them. Then Buu Dogg followed suit and the cat-shaped holes were covered by even larger dog-shaped holes.
So the straight line between two points is the shortest, and this is the correct answer.
After Zhang Da came to his senses, he followed. They could look for the sniper later. They couldn't just watch Tom being bullied by the dog, right?
Buu Dogg is very large, and the hole he created allows Zhang Da to pass through without any obstacles. However, as soon as Zhang Da stepped into the first house, he realized something was wrong.
A family of three in the house were tied up with ropes and thrown in the corner of the bedroom. A man holding a big knife was staring at the big hole through which Tom and Buodog ran out.
"Is that Lord Buu Dogg? What is he chasing? Is he an enemy?" the man muttered to himself.
"Do you know that dog?"
" Of course, that's..." The man was startled and turned around suddenly, "Who is it?"
Zhang Da rushed forward at a speed that ordinary people could not see clearly. He pressed his forearm against the man's neck and slammed him against the wall. His sword clanged to the ground. "So you are a member of the Midnight Pirates. If you don't want to join the battle at this time, what are you doing here?"
"Ahem... Ahem..." The pirate held Zhang Daya's arm with both hands, trying to pry it apart but unable to move it at all, "You... You are, Amber..."
Zhang Da also punched him in the abdomen with his free hand: "I am asking you a question, what are your plans for staying here?"
"Ahem... I'll tell you, I'll tell you!" The pirate confessed honestly, "Yes, it was arranged by the chief of staff. He said that your style seems to be the kind of people who would care about the lives of civilians, so, he arranged for fifty of us brothers to hide in the homes of civilians and hold them hostage. In case the cadres fail..."
"Chief Advisor..." Zhang Daye punched the pirate into the wall, then turned to help the family of three untie the ropes, "I'm sorry for damaging your house. The knife is your compensation. Find a place to hide, and everything will be fine soon."
The family of three seemed to be frightened. They hugged each other and cried, unable to speak.
Zhang Da did not stay any longer and left through another big hole. Before leaving, he did not forget to render the pirate harmless.
"Tsk, I forgot to ask him where the others are." Zhang Da was also a little worried, but just in time he saw another pirate peeking out of the hole made by Tom and Doggie.
Zhang Da also smiled kindly.
…
Bang! Mary fired two shots from her hiding place, but unfortunately she still couldn't hear the scream of pain she wanted.
"Damn iron monster!" Mary cursed angrily. Except for the surprise attack at the beginning, she never hit the enemy again. The enemy's trouble level was far beyond her imagination. "I don't know what's going on with Annie. Is that bastard Midnight going to play any tricks?"
"Hit the water!" Shark Chili's voice sounded, and a drop of water hit Mary's left shoulder.
Mary screamed in pain, and the rifle in her left hand flew out. Without even looking, she fired two shots behind her, endured the pain, climbed up the wall, and flipped to the other side.
In terms of straight-line running speed, Mary knew that she was far inferior to Shark Chili, so she could only use the terrain to dodge and move, hoping to cause some trouble to that guy, but she obviously miscalculated.
Although Shark Chili looks bulky, he is able to leap into the cockpit of the shark giant. It is not difficult for him to jump seven or eight meters.
It was precisely because they were unwilling to destroy residential houses that Mary was able to escape for so long by taking advantage of the terrain in various alleys.
And now that Mary is injured, it will be easier for Shark Chili to catch up with her: "Wake up, Fishman Karate, three thousand tile palms!"
"Ah!" Mary screamed and was knocked away by Shark Chili. She tried twice but couldn't get up.
Whoosh! Tom's figure flashed past Shark Chili, followed by a tall and ferocious bulldog.
“Woof woof woof!”
"Tom?" Shark Chili grabbed Buu Dogg's tail.
"Woof?" Buu Dogg tried to run forward, but after a while he realized that he had stopped moving.
He turned around and saw Shark Chili grabbing his tail, baring his teeth viciously: "Grrrrr..."
Bang! Tom hit Buu Dogg on the head with a rolled-up newspaper. The damage was not great, but it was extremely insulting.
Buu Dogg immediately forgot about Shark Pepper and barked at Tom, trying his best to bite him.
Of course Shark Chili would not let go and held the dog's tail tightly.
Tom gave Shark Chili a big smile, and then his expression became more arrogant.
“Woof woof woof…”
As soon as Zhang Da arrived at the scene, he saw Tom standing behind a line and teasing a big dog in various ways. From time to time, he took out various objects to hit the big dog's head, asking the dog to bite it with its teeth. Finally, he even took out a piece of wooden stake and let the big dog chew out a baseball bat, and then knocked it down with one stick.
Shark Chili let go of the fainted Buu Dogg, looking helpless and doting.
"Shark Chili? Just in time to lend a hand." Zhang Da also explained the situation, "I have dealt with 27 of them, and we will split up to deal with the rest."
Shark Chili nodded: "Okay, these pirates are really..."
…
On the coast, Alifu was arguing with Ye Yan. One wanted the Amber Group to release them, or at least release him and his brother. The other wanted to get more information out of Alifu so as to rescue those innocent people. Ye Yan even wanted to use Eliphant's life to threaten Alifu.
The two guys who liked to use their brains cursed each other in their hearts for being despicable, shameless, insidious and cunning.
"There are still ten minutes left. If you don't make a decision, they will start killing people." Alifu tried to appear calm. "We are pirates. Killing and robbing are natural. When the time comes, people will only blame you for those tragic deaths. It's because you killed them because you coveted our bounty! This is human nature!"
"Being cursed by everyone, having your reputation ruined, and even being wanted by the navy for tens of millions of Baileys, is it worth it?"
The little girls were a little shaken, especially Weiwei, who found it hardest to accept. She bit her lip and asked, "Why is this happening?"
Jackie Chan frowned and asked, "Perona, can you use your ability to find them and control them?"
Perona looked troubled: "Fifty people, to ensure that nothing goes wrong, at least one hundred negative ghosts must be released at the same time. It will be very difficult to control so many people at the same time, and it will take time to find people..."
"Don't even think about getting the Ghost Princess to take action!" Alifu said, "We already know the Ghost Princess's abilities. As long as they see something that looks like a ghost, they will take action immediately!"
Perona said angrily: "Damn you! Wait and see how I deal with you!"
Wendy and Xia Lulu held her back: "Stop provoking him. Think of another way."
Ye Yan looked at him calmly: "Looking at your expression, don't tell me you think you have us in your grasp, do you?"
Alifu's expression changed. Could this person have some other tricks up his sleeve? Oh no: "I remember your ability is that you can do it with just a gong..."
"Don't worry. The Soul-Soothing Gong can indeed immobilize people, but its range is not large enough to control the entire town." Ye Yan patted his shoulder with a smile.
"Then why are you..."
"Why aren't you in a hurry at all?" Ye Yan knew what he wanted to ask, and said nonchalantly, "Because it doesn't matter. After all, we have no relationship with the people in this town. We have done our best to try to think of a solution, or to help with revenge afterwards. You killed the person, what does it have to do with us?"
"If we are worried that someone will curse us..." Ye Yan made a ferocious expression, "We can just kill you and everyone in the town together. Then there will be no evidence and we can put the blame on you. You said it yourself just now, it is natural for pirates to kill people."
Alifu showed an expression of disbelief: "Impossible, you are lying..."
"You don't think we care that much about these ordinary people, do you? You saw the battle just now. Almost everyone here has the ability to destroy a town at will. Let's put it this way, ordinary people are actually no different from ants in our eyes. How much affection would you have for a creature that you can easily crush to death?"
Ye Yan spoke indifferently, patting Alifu's cheek with one hand: "To be frank, this is just a small island abandoned by the World Government. It doesn't matter even if it is bombed and sunk. I've wasted so much time talking to you just because there will be a lot of troublesome aftermath work to be done after silencing you, and the bounty for the dead bounty criminal will only drop by a few percent."
"Asking you to confess gives you a chance to go to prison alive, but since you refuse to cooperate no matter what, I can only send you away now."
Ye Yan pinched Alifu's throat with one hand, and slowly exerted force with his fingers. As the force increased, the expression on his face gradually became happy: "Come to think of it, in order to earn more bounty, it has been a long time since I have watched a life slip away like this..."
"Hehehe..." The flag monsters lined up behind Ye Yan, blocking Alifu's view of other people while cooperating with him and giving sinister smiles.
"I..." Alifu's voice was hoarse, he was almost unable to speak, "I said..."
“Ahem… There’s a pocket sewn into my brother’s sleeve, and inside it is a flare. That’s the signal that the plan has been successful. As long as it’s fired, they will release those people and come here to greet us…”
Alifu was desperate. The newspapers were all lies, saying that the Amber Group was a friend of the Navy and was upholding justice. Bah, which person who upholds justice is so terrifying and perverted? He wanted to complain to Morgans for false propaganda.
The flag demon quickly searched for the flare from Eliphant and released it.
Ye Yan turned around and made a "yeah" gesture, but found a few little girls hiding behind Uncle Long, looking at him with fear.
Even Rui Mengmeng and Uncle Long looked at him with something strange in their eyes.
"Well... I can explain..."
