Chapter 109 Sword Slashing Sea Kings [2 in 1, 3/3]
"What did the girl say she was called just now?"
On the way back to the warship, Ghost Spider didn't hear clearly and kept asking Nuo Xia.
"I don't know, I don't know, I'm not interested."
Nuo Xia's face was expressionless.
He was really not interested. To be precise, he really didn't want to have anything to do with that girl.
Domino...
At first he had no impression of it just by looking at his face, but as soon as the other person introduced himself and omitted his name, he immediately remembered it.
——Future Xiliu’s colleague, the warden of Impel Down City, was petrified by Empress Hancock.
Judging from the performance just now, she has a tendency to tremble and is a 100% pathological idiot.
Boys need to know how to protect themselves when they are alone outside. For such an unpredictable guy, it is better to keep a distance.
The ghost spider, unable to satisfy its curiosity, curled its lips and showed a bored expression.
………
The warship left the island and chased towards Shengting Island.
The so-called Shengting Island is actually the island where the Kingdom of Alabasta is located. It has a population of more than ten million. Looking at the entire Grand Line, it is also one of the few super-large islands.
It would take at least five days of sailing to reach the sea area where Nuoxia and the others were located.
Ghost Spider asked someone to bring a sea chart, and after observing it for a long time, he came up with his own conjecture, believing that the target of the Max Pirates was not Sentin Island, but the town of Picardo, which was halfway there.
It was an illegal area where black market trade flourished. Many pirates would cash in the looted property there, and then spend their money in the town, drinking and drinking.
They often go in with a lot of money, but their pockets are empty, and all the money they robbed is given to the black businessmen in the town, who are always working as workers.
"Reasonable." Noxia nodded, "So how long will it take for us to get to Picardo?"
"About before dawn." Ghost Spider thought for a moment, "Our ship is fast. If the other party doesn't stray too far away, we might be able to bump into them on the road tonight."
"learn."
Nuo Xia waved his hand casually, turned around and walked to the cabin. He didn't know whether to go to training or to talk to Shia, "Just call me when you get there."
"This guy..."
Looking at Nuo Xia's retreating figure, Ghost Spider muttered, "I really don't regard myself as an outsider."
He is obviously both the captain and the senior, so how come he acts like a subordinate in front of the other party?
This guy is always impeccably polite when dealing with people and things in the beginning. Once he gets to know each other, his true nature is immediately exposed and he is not polite to you at all...
But Ghost Spider also knows.
Not talking about his future achievements, with Nuo Xia's current strength and the military exploits he has already obtained, if he applies for graduation immediately, he can at least be awarded the position of brigadier general.
And I would most likely have to hang around as a colonel in the headquarters for a few years to gain seniority before I could hope to be promoted.
That is to say...
As long as that kid is willing, he can really become his superior at any time, and he might even directly become his immediate boss.
After all, judging from Mr. Porusalino's attitude, it seems that he hopes that Nosha can stay in the G2 branch forever. If he is transferred to the G2 branch after being awarded the title, he will definitely give a warm welcome with hands and feet raised.
The ghost spider sighed quietly.
The most depressing thing in the world is this.
…………
That night, around seven or eight o'clock.
After finishing his exercise, Nuo Xia had just walked out of Shia's room when he felt a violent jolt and shake on the boat under his feet. He staggered and almost fell to the ground.
"Enemy attack?"
His expression changed slightly, and he immediately rushed to the deck. After leaving the cabin, he found Ghost Spider standing in front of the railing with an ugly expression, looking far away at the sea to the southeast.
The other soldiers on the deck looked even more confused.
"What's going on?"
Nuo Xia followed and looked over there, and found that the sea surface hundreds of meters away was actually bubbling, the waves were gradually turbulent, and a huge figure could be vaguely seen entrenched in it.
"What a bad luck!" Ghost Spider put out his cigar fiercely and cursed, "You damn Neptune type!"
Wow!
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the dormant figure under the sea suddenly broke through the waves!
It was a monster that was 70% to 80% similar to a giant python, with a cold light flashing in its inverted triangular eyes, as if staring at prey, looking down at the people on the warship deck.
"hiss……"
It gently spit out the snake message, and its slender and huge dark blue body made the surrounding seawater surge violently every time it moved. The scales on its body were densely arranged, reflecting a cold and cold luster in the moonlight.
"It's at least two to three hundred meters long..." Ghost Spider's eyes were gloomy, "Although it can't be compared with the big guys in the Windless Zone, it can only be regarded as a small and medium-sized sea king, but this size is no longer something we can resist.
That’s it…”
Damn it, why are you so unlucky today!
It's not like he has never encountered a Sea King before, but every time he bumped into one, he either happened to be passing by and was not interested in warships, or he was far enough away that he could take a detour and avoid it if he noticed it in advance.
But this time, they actually collided head-on at night!
It's too late to even escape!
"We can only fight to the death."
The red hair behind the ghost spider stretched out like spider legs, each holding a sword, then he turned his head and gritted his teeth and said:
"The lifeboats are all ready. We have to work together and try our best to delay and stop this guy so that the rest of the people on the boat can escape..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly discovered that Nuo Xia, who was standing behind him just now, had disappeared without a trace.
Where are people?
While he was confused, the sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded from above his head.
The ghost spider subconsciously raised his head, and the next moment he was shocked to find that Nuo Xia rose into the sky on moon steps, silently drew his sword in the night, and slashed at the sea king!
"Hey, you guy!"
Ghost Spider's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but shouted anxiously: "This is not the time to show off, boy! That's the Neptune type, you will die!"
Dead?
Nuo Xia, who was in the night sky, also heard the roar of the ghost spider, but he did not look back. He still stared at the sea king below with bright eyes, grinning with a high-spirited smile.
"Don't worry, just leave it to me."
——It’s not certain who died in the end!
It has been more than a month since he entered the realm of swordsman, and his swordsmanship has improved a lot. He has been able to perfectly integrate the weapon color with the lunar eclipse. He has long wanted to find a reasonable target to try out the color.
However, the pirates he encountered in the past period were of average strength and could be dealt with with just one shot. They were not fun at all, which led him to even entertain the idea of a Neptune-type thing when he was bored.
Now he finally met one, and it was of a moderate size. He couldn't even get excited about such a good opportunity, so how could he back down just like that!
Seeing that the distance was getting closer and closer, the giant python-like Neptune finally noticed the movement above his head.
"Hiss~"
It raised its head and narrowed its eyes to look at Nuo Xia for a moment, spit out the snake letter, and then suddenly roared ferociously, opened its bloody mouth, and bit Nuo Xia head on!
“Just in time!”
Nuo Xia let out a low shout and concentrated his thoughts. The wind sword and Azakana's sword were almost simultaneously attached with a dark armed color.
The sword blade fell, and a brilliance as bright as the silver moon suddenly erupted at this moment. It was so dazzling that the small half of the night sky above the warship was reflected as if it were day!
Buzz!
The magnificent sword energy that whizzed out was obscured by this brilliance. At a terrifying speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye, it crossed hundreds of meters in the sky and slashed towards the bloody mouth of the sea king below!
boom!
A deafening explosion suddenly resounded across the sea at this moment, and when the dazzling light gradually dissipated, everyone on the warship, including Ghost Spider, regained their sight.
It was discovered that a cross-shaped wound suddenly appeared on the head of the Neptune creature, which penetrated both cheeks and cut off the snake letter. Large streams of dark blue blood gushed out like a fountain.
The giant python-like Neptune has fallen into a state of rage after suffering from pain, and its tail is constantly sweeping and stirring.
Even though they were hundreds of meters apart, everyone on the warship could feel as if they were being sucked into an ocean storm, constantly shaking with the violent vibrations of the ship's hull.
And above the sky.
Seeing that his sword energy had successfully caused huge damage, Nuo Xia had no intention of holding back. He used both the red and white swords at the same time, and the attack almost followed one wave after another.
It was a tight and tightly coordinated attack, leaving no chance for this sea king creature to breathe and fight back.
final.
After nearly half an hour of fierce fighting.
Like a giant python, the sea king struggled to no avail, and finally let out a desperate cry. The body suddenly fell into the sea, and the dark blue blood continued to float up, and there was no longer any life.
The life-and-death crisis faced by the entire warship and the hundreds of naval soldiers on board and on board was thus resolved.
"call……"
Nuo Xia then returned to the warship with moon steps. As soon as he stepped onto the deck, he saw almost all the navy soldiers gathered around him, and a burst of earth-shattering enthusiastic cheers broke out from the crowd.
"As expected of Mr. Nosha!"
"It can even defeat the Neptune type... It's simply, simply too strong!"
"It would be great if I could have half... no, even one-fifth of the strength of Mr. Nosha!"
Ghost Spider's reaction was not much better either. The cigar from the corner of his mouth fell to the ground, and he was looking at himself up and down with a look like looking at a monster.
"Hey, hey, you're not making such a fuss, are you?"
Nuo Xia walked through the crowd, walked to Ghost Spider, and patted his shoulder with a smile, "It's just an ordinary Neptune. There are many strong men in this department who can kill it instantly. It's been several years since you graduated.
Don't tell me you've never seen such a scene."
"Nonsense, of course I've seen it before..."
Ghost Spider subconsciously retorted, he had followed Lieutenant General Sakaski on an expedition, and had witnessed the latter turn a sea king into a grilled fish with a simple punch.
But, can this be the same?
"How old are you? You haven't graduated yet..."
He looked at the smiling Nuo Xia and didn't know what to say for a moment. He could only sigh melancholy, "The future is really limitless. I always feel that you will have a place among the future generals."
"Of course, this is one of my dreams."
Nuo Xia laughed heartily, not hiding his ambition at all, "And when the time comes, I will also break off the legs of the guy next to me!"
The ghost spider couldn't understand this.
"Forget it, let's continue on our way." Ghost Spider didn't take it seriously. He turned around and asked his adjutant, "How are you doing? Is there anything wrong with the hull?"
He originally asked casually and habitually, but unexpectedly the adjutant actually said with a sad face: "I have a question, Colonel..."
"Um?"
"The boatman came over just now to report that the blood of this Sea King type is corrosive to a certain extent. There is an area on the bottom of the warship that has been stained. There are signs of damage and it needs to be repaired immediately..."
"How long will it take?" Ghost Spider's face darkened again.
"A conservative estimate, it will take at least seven or eight hours..." the adjutant said cautiously, "that is to say, for the sake of safety, we have to anchor temporarily and wait until daybreak before we can set sail again..."
"ha?"
Now not only is it a ghost spider, but Nuo Xia on the side can't calm down anymore and can't help but say, "We have to repair until dawn? Then by the time we arrive at Picardo Island, won't the Max Pirates have already escaped?"
"Maybe it's not that bad..." Ghost Spider just opened his mouth, but was interrupted by Nuo Xia angrily, "Where do you get your confidence? Do you think your luck today is not bad enough?"
The ghost spider suddenly choked and silently closed his mouth.
"It's troublesome..." Nuo Xia paced, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly turned around and asked the adjutant, "Are there any self-powered speedboats among the lifeboats equipped on warships?"
"There is one, but the space is very small. It can only fit two people..."
"That's enough!" Nuoxia's eyes lit up and he ordered, "Please release this speedboat, and also get me a copy of the record pointers of Picado Island and Sentin Island."
His words were almost more effective than the ghost spider on the warship. The adjutant with the rank of major, without saying a word, immediately turned around and followed the instructions.
"What are you trying to do?" Ghost Spider asked with a frown, "You're not planning to leave us behind and go alone, are you?"
"Bingo!" Nuo Xia looked at him with a smile, "Why, now, are you still worried about my strength?"
"Of course not..." Ghost Spider shook his head, and suddenly felt a little pain in his balls, "But if this happens, won't I lose everything?"
He had been holding it in for a long time, hoping to enjoy this battle.
"No." After reacting, Ghost Spider immediately said, "I have to follow you too."
"What a joke."
Nuo Xia rolled her eyes at him and pointed to the speedboat that had been released below, "It's only such a big place in total. Don't you know how big it is? With you on top, how can the speedboat go faster?"

——Xia’s diary——
A month has passed and I still haven't been able to take the final step with Nuo Xia.
He promised me the rest, but he insisted that this would take a while.
He also said.
There is no need to rush to finish some things in one night. When the time comes, you can do them every night.
