Chapter 229 Wendy Steps Out
"Oh, I see."
Ain's tone was a little disappointed. She also knew that there would probably be a big war coming. Although she was a person with special abilities, she was still too young and had no ability to protect herself. Staying away from the battlefield was the best option.
After saying that, Ian walked over to Xiaonan and her grandson and helped them stand up. Barnett helped from the side, but Ian was also eager to become stronger. She didn't want to become a burden to Vic every time they fought.
"Sorry! I'm sorry to bother you!" The old lady said to a few people. Vic shook his head to indicate that it was nothing. The old lady then pulled Xiaonan and followed Ian to turn around and walk towards the wooden house.
The fourth brother saw Ain leading the two men towards the wooden house but did not stop them. It was unclear whether he was afraid or did not care.
The third brother is now fighting with Rebecca, and he is unable to escape Rebecca's pursuit to kill Xiaonan and her grandchildren, so Ian takes them back to the cabin smoothly.
Just after the three returned to the wooden house, the man in black who was swept by Lan's foot began to fall to the ground, and broke into two pieces the moment he fell to the ground. This made the people next to him who had not fallen yet realize something.
They looked down at the blood lines on their waists, then fell to the ground and broke into two. It seemed like a chain reaction, and one after another the men in black fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
The scene was a bit weird. If Xiaonan and his grandmother were still here, they would probably be terrified. Although they had seen the severed human body just now, it was cut in half and spread on the ground at such a fast speed. When Xiaonan and his grandson saw it, that was the scene. Although it was also terrifying, it came and went quickly, and it was completely different from the feeling now.
Rebecca was still fighting with the third brother and paid no attention to the scene, but the fourth brother watched the whole scene. After watching it, he swallowed hard.
He had heard that after a swordsman with great swordsman skills hits someone, the person will not feel the injury for a short period of time. But Vic didn't use any swordsmanship at all. It was just like a random kick. He was familiar with this skill, which made him even more frightened. He saw no hope of winning at all.
Wendy and the others also saw this scene, but they did not show much emotion. They knew Vic's strength well, and he just wouldn't leave even though they had tried to persuade him.
It is difficult to persuade the damned ghosts with kind words. They will not sympathize with him because it is his fate. They will only be happier if Vic becomes stronger. They have seen Vic beat people into disappearance with one punch before. That is even more terrifying!
"Rebecca is fighting that guy. You three can see who will deal with this guy."
Vic smiled. He knew that Fredek was not capable of defeating the fourth brother now, but he still did not pull him down when he said that.
Vic just wanted to let Fredek participate in the next battle. Even if he was not the main force, he could serve as an auxiliary, because Fredek's Observation Haki was the strongest among everyone, and it was estimated that he could be ranked among the top in the whole world. So he naturally had to make use of it. In addition, Barnett and Wendy had not awakened their Observation Haki, so they might be at a disadvantage in the battle later.
"Let me do it!"
The one who was speaking was Wendy. Maybe she was a little anxious now. It had been several months, and among the people around them, only she and Barnett did not have Observation Haki. However, Barnett's fruit ability could be called a cheat. It could greatly reduce the time of training, and it was not difficult for him to awaken in a short period of time. Only she was still stuck at the level of paper drawing.
She entered Vic's circle not long after she started studying in the boot camp, and immediately began training to awaken her observation and hearing color. More than half a year has passed and there has been no improvement, and she is a little anxious.
After all, strength is the capital for survival. She was very anxious. She had seen the fourth brother's strength, which was very close to hers, so she was ready to have a close combat with the fourth brother this time to see if there was a chance to awaken the Observation Haki.
"Wendy! Be careful!" Barnett said softly. He seemed to sense Wendy's depressed mood. Wendy's mood had been fluctuating greatly during this period. He didn't know what was hiding in her heart. Wendy didn't say anything and he didn't ask any further questions. He just waited for Wendy to want to speak before listening.
"Then I'll leave him to you. But he uses a long sword. Does he need to use my sword?" Vic had no objection when he saw that Wendy had made the decision. The two of them were about the same in strength. Without using weapons, Rebecca might be stronger. After all, Rebecca also knew three of the six styles.
But if Wendy uses weapons to fight the enemy, she will be at a disadvantage. Two short swords are actually nothing. In the hands of someone with superb swordsmanship, they can also be deadly weapons, just like Hawkeye defeated Zoro, the pirate hunter who was famous in the East China Sea at that time, with a knife smaller than a dagger.
However, Wendy only started using two daggers to fight the enemy after coming to the Elite Camp and Vic suggested close combat. It has not been long and she has not mastered any famous swordsmanship. The two daggers are not an advantage against the enemy, so Vic plans to lend his own knife to Wendy. After all, an inch longer is an inch stronger.
"No need, Vic. I'm not good at kendo either. Your knife is too long. I can't use it well. A short knife is more convenient." Wendy is petite, and Vic's knife is indeed too long for her to use.
However, the third knife on Vic's waist was not long. Wendy had never seen Vic use that knife, so she didn't plan to use it. She was very anxious about her observation Haki, and having some gap with her opponent would be more conducive to stimulating herself.
During the time she was on the warship, she never had the opportunity to meet a sturdy opponent like this, and she always played with the wind. She thought this might be the reason why she didn't awaken.
"Okay, go ahead." Vic nodded and said, he was still waiting for the arrival of the strong man.
The fourth brother, who was ten meters away, was gritting his teeth at the moment. Vic and the others were talking in a loud voice, and the fourth brother heard it all. It was as if they were discussing who would slaughter the pig.
If your knife doesn't work, use mine!
My small knife is enough, and the big knife is too good for it!
Okay, that’s the decision.
Another woman came to fight with him. The fourth brother's back teeth were almost broken, but he didn't dare to say anything harsh. Vic, the ruthless man, was still here. He killed so many people in just a short time. He was very different from the navy he had seen. He was definitely not a good man or a good woman and could not be judged by common sense.
Wendy walked towards Lao Si step by step with two knives in hand. Lao Si was not afraid of Wendy. He was now thinking about how to get out of this situation. Should he beat up this woman and take her hostage to give himself more bargaining chips?
The fourth brother's eyes rolled as if he had thought of a plan, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He looked at Wendy who was walking towards him. He was now very satisfied that Wendy chose him as her opponent. He slowly drew out the famous sword at his waist and became alert.
Wendy came and stood five meters away from the fourth brother. Seeing the fourth brother draw his sword and take a defensive stance, she knew that he wanted her to attack first. Wendy did not hesitate and disappeared on the spot.
This is the Six-style Shave, and Wendy knows three of them: Shave, Moon Step, and Paper Drawing. When she appeared again, Wendy came one step behind the fourth brother, and rushed forward with two short knives crossed, cutting towards the fourth brother's neck like a pair of scissors.
The fourth brother reacted quickly, he turned around instantly and slashed at the intersection of the daggers, blocking the advance of the daggers. Wendy knew paper drawing and was not afraid of close combat. The closer the combat, the better the effect of paper drawing. So Wendy was ready to attack the fourth brother completely, and the battle was about to start!
