The expressions of the other two pirates suddenly changed when they saw this. After looking at each other, they gritted their teeth and roared. One from the left and one from the right, they simultaneously attacked Nuo Xia.
Their eyesight was very good, and when they saw their companions being instantly killed by the opponent within one round, they knew they had encountered a tough situation.
The experience accumulated from years of wandering on the sea tells them that it is very difficult to turn around and escape at this time. It is better to join forces and attack at the first time, but they have a chance to survive in death.
However, unfortunately, although they made the most correct decision, they still misjudged Nuo Xia's strength.
"shave!"
In the whispers, Nuo Xia's figure disappeared suddenly in front of the two of them like a ghost. Their eyes widened, and before they could react, there was already a cold wind coming from behind.
Poof!
The red knife moved to the left, the white knife moved to the right, and the two slender blades penetrated the chests of the two people from behind at the same time.
Immediately, he flipped his wrist and twisted his organs and heart veins into paste. When he pulled it out, their eyes were already distracted, and their bodies fell stiffly backwards to the ground.
Nuo Xia did not stop there. He skillfully stabbed the two men's necks once before wiping off the blood on the sword blade and inserting it back into its sheath.
This is the first time that Nuo Xia has participated in an actual combat assessment, but it is not the first time that he has participated in combat.
When he was still in the 16th branch of the East China Sea, Nuo Xia followed his father, who was the captain of the branch, and went to sea many times to participate in encirclement and suppression operations.
His achievements may not be very brilliant, but at least dozens of pirates died at his hands, and among them there were even wanted criminals with a bounty of over one million.
This good habit of last-hitting has been developed many years ago, and now I am just trying to get back this long-lost feeling.
"The average strength is indeed much higher than that of the pirates in the East China Sea."
Nuo Xia glanced at the three corpses on the ground, shook his head, and strode over, "But it's still too naive to threaten me now."
These three burly men are actually not weak in strength. They are probably all carrying bounties from the navy. A few months ago, it would have taken a lot of effort for him to solve them.
But now, it's just a matter of one sword.
"There seems to be something wrong with what these guys just said..."
He continued to walk quickly towards the burning building, silently recalling the reactions of the few people just now, "You were as excited as you were prey when you saw me, and you want to ask about the whereabouts of your companions?"
According to common sense, it's now time. Shouldn't the remaining pirates on the island be forced to retreat by their colleagues in the elite camp and linger in the dark alleys?
Why does it seem now that the pirates have taken the initiative and are searching for lone navy recruits?
"It shouldn't be, what are Xiliu and the others doing..."
Nuo Xia's brows gradually furrowed. He looked up at the burning fire in the distance and sped up.
——In any case, he had to find an acquaintance first and ask about the situation.
…………
Dark alley.
"Don't run away, little cubs!"
"Stop for me!"
With arrogant roars, twenty or thirty pirates poured into the alley, chasing the three figures running hard in front of them.
They were three young marines wearing white uniforms.
The one in the middle has a graceful figure, waist-length blue hair, and delicate appearance. She is one of the most beautiful girls no matter where she is placed, while the two on the left and right are girls with short hair.
The bodies of the three were stained with blood, as if they had just experienced a hard battle, and their expressions were even more exhausted, as if their physical strength was approaching its limit.
"Phew, I can't hold on anymore, I can't hold on anymore..."
After turning around another alley, the short-haired girl on the right finally couldn't hold on anymore and stopped while holding on to the wall, panting:
"Xia, Monica, we can't go on like this. Our speed has dropped too much. No matter how much we run, we can't get rid of these guys. Otherwise..."
"Send a signal for help and let the instructors take action?"
The beautiful girl with waist-length blue hair slowed down, glanced back at her, and said expressionlessly:
"In that case, our lives are no longer in danger, but this actual combat assessment will end early and we will no longer be qualified to stay on the battlefield. Are you sure?"
"There's nothing wrong with that, right?"
The short-haired female marine named Monica seemed to have the same idea, and said with a wry smile:
"Anyway, we have already eliminated many enemies. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of a bunch of pirates in the city for no apparent reason, our assessment should have ended long ago."
"Yes, Shia."
The girl who stopped first also weakly echoed, "And we are definitely not the first to give up. Even if we are eliminated now, the final ranking will not be too bad..."
"I won't give up just yet."
Before she could finish her words, Xiya refused coldly:
"The worst case scenario is to find a place to hide, rest for a few hours to recover your strength, and then come out and continue fighting. But if you want to leave, I won't force you to do so. Just feel free to do so."
"I knew there was nothing I could do to persuade you..." Monica sighed, "Xia, you are too stubborn. Why bother? Sometimes, you just need to be a little flexible..."
Before she could finish her words, she was stared at by Shia's indifferent gaze, and she could only hold back the remaining half of her words.
"Okay, let's go then, please be careful."
The footsteps in the distance were getting closer and closer, and it was obvious that the pirates who were chasing behind them had entered the alley. Monica and the short-haired girl no longer hesitated, took out their phone bugs, and prepared to send out a signal for help together.
The recruits of the Navy Elite Battalion are all the best ones selected from a thousand. The headquarters does not want them to become flowers in the greenhouse, so it will take life-and-death combat full of blood and fire as a necessary assessment on the road to becoming strong.
But there is always a limit to everything. For these valued seedlings, the headquarters will naturally not let them die in the process of growth.
Therefore, in addition to Aokiji who had an overview of the whole situation, there were also more than ten instructors who had followed them all the way from the headquarters on warships in various neighborhoods of the town.
They lurked quietly aside, observing and monitoring the performance of the new recruits. Under normal circumstances, they would never interfere, nor would they let the pirates notice their presence.
However, when the lives of members of the elite camp are in danger, or when they cannot hold on and actively seek help, they will enter the scene as soon as possible for protection and transfer.
However, in this way, those elite battalion recruits who were retained naturally announced their withdrawal from the assessment by default and lost the opportunity to stay on the field to earn combat merit.
For these elites in this department, most of them naturally don't want to reach this point. Everyone has pride and dignity. Who doesn't want to kill more enemies and make his ranking higher?
But...it's a pity that plans can never keep up with changes.
In the face of a large number of pirate reinforcements that suddenly poured out from nowhere tonight, many naval soldiers who were exhausted after fighting hard for two days had no choice but to withdraw no matter how unwilling they were.
Like Shia, there are only a few people who choose to persevere even in adversity.
