Chapter 849 4 Sea Mafia
...
"Hey hahaha!"
Aaron and Jer looked in the direction of the devilish laughter and saw a conspicuous green cockscomb wearing a pair of shiny black leather boots walking towards them leisurely.
The man was wearing a burgundy coat on his upper body and a pair of fancy plaid trousers on his lower body. On his exposed chest was a tattoo of a pair of black wings.
One can tell at a glance from his pair of evil inverted triangle eyes that he is not a good person. There are two patterns painted under his right eye, a nose ring on his nose, a mouth full of sharp fangs, and a face like a devil!
"The leader of the East Sea underworld! Bartolomeo!"
After seeing who was coming, Aaron and Jer both showed surprised expressions, wondering why the other party would help them.
"Whoosh~!"
Bellamy's reaction was even more intense. Without saying a word, he rushed forward waving his pitch-black fist!
"Bartolomeo!"
"Boom!!"
Another deafening bell rang!
"How grumpy!"
Bellamy's fist, which had already rushed forward, was blocked by the transparent barrier again.
"Hey hahaha~ No matter how angry you are, it's just impotent rage, Bellamy, you can't even touch a hair of mine!"
Bartolomeo stood behind the barrier with his hands crossed, index and middle fingers interlocked, smiling wickedly.
He has absolute confidence in the defense of his fruit ability, well, except at the beginning.
Back then, he was just an ignorant and naive young delinquent, but he accidentally obtained a devil fruit. You know, in a small place like the East China Sea, becoming a person with special abilities is equivalent to having the capital to run rampant.
So Bartolomeo ate the devil fruit without hesitation, and couldn't wait to settle the score with the gangsters who had bullied him before.
However, a strange thing happened. The "Instructions for Use" that came with the devil fruit clearly showed the ability the user gained. He should have been able to use a defensive method called "barrier". But when they really arrived at the enemy's lair and started fighting, Bartolomeo found that even though his fingers were twisted into a knot, nothing happened!
If he hadn't broken through his limits at the critical moment of life and death and summoned a half-square-meter barrier to block the sniper's bullets, and if he hadn't happened to meet his big brother Senior, he might have died there.
However, the barrier power has never let him down since then, and he also learned from his elder brother Senior that he has the same ability as a "great big shot". This made Bartolomeo, who almost suspected that he had eaten a fake devil fruit, very proud!
(Additional explanation: the author is not mistaken. The Barrier Fruit was extracted after the death of Kurozumi Chanmaru in Wano Country. It was not completely decomposed, but more than 200 square meters were extracted, so the initial ability was weakened.)
"Bang~!"
"Boom!"
Bartolomeo, who was in a daze, was punched away by Bellamy who took the opportunity to bypass the barrier.
"Bah! Damn it! How dare you, you despicable fellow, sneak attack me!"
Bartolomeo immediately jumped up from the ground. He secretly wiped the blood from his nose, then turned around and patted the dust off his body, pretending to be calm.
"But your punches...you really haven't improved at all, Bellamy!"
"Hmph! Stop being so stubborn! You bastard, you ruined my business! You actually helped the navy!"
Bellamy snorted.
"Hey, hahaha! What do you mean by ruining your good thing?"
Bartolomeo put his hands back into his trouser pockets. One side of his face was a little swollen, but it did not affect his smug look.
"I'm trying to stop you, an idiot, from doing anything stupid, so as not to affect Big Brother's plan. You should thank me!"
"Humph! Are you kidding me? I was just afraid that these two navy spies would ruin Brother Senior's plan, so I decided to capture them and hand them over to him for punishment! I think you are just looking for trouble! It's a pity that I didn't use a more ruthless punch to kill you directly!"
"Bullshit! I was just careless for a moment! If you can do it, just try it!"
"Just try it!"
The two of them started fighting again after a disagreement!
"Boom! Boom, boom, boom!"
The stormy fists hit the barrier, making a sound like drums.
"It's useless! Hey, hahaha!"
Bartolomeo hid behind the barrier and laughed wildly.
"Damn it! Come out and fight me if you dare! Don't hide in your shell like a coward!"
"Tsk! Are you kidding me? You can use the power of your devil fruit, but if I use my own power, I'm just a coward? That's the twisted logic of the weak!"
Bartolomeo raised his middle finger and sneered.
"Damn it! You are so arrogant! You bastard!"
Bellamy was so angry that he almost squeezed out the words from between his teeth.
...
"Hey! Brother!"
"Ok!"
Seeing the two men fighting fiercely, Aaron and Jer exchanged glances and immediately decided to escape in the chaos.
But as soon as the brothers turned around, they were blocked by a group of thugs in suits.
"Haha, there's something interesting to watch. Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Navy."
Leading the group was a man wearing a striped suit and who looked a bit like a penguin.
"The Godfather of the West Sea Mafia, Capone Becky!"
The two brothers recognized the identity of the person at a glance, and their faces froze.
Is it that they have to die today? Why is it that no one who comes here is a difficult person that they can handle?
"hehe."
Becky held a cigar in her mouth, exhaled a puff of white smoke, and looked at the two of them with interest.
Jer raised his hands and said innocently.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! If I say we just got lost and came here by accident, I wonder if you will believe me?"
"what?"
"Well, if you believe it, could you please help me? We'll leave now."
"Crack, click, click!"
Upon hearing this, the younger brothers behind Becky loaded their guns and raised them, ready to aim and shoot.
"Hey! Who would believe such a reason, you bastard?"
"Do you think we're idiots? Navy!"
"Damn it, kill them!"
Becky raised her hand to signal the younger brothers to be quiet, then grinned.
"I'm sorry, if we let you go back safely, won't you navy laugh at us for our incompetence?"
"Ahahaha~ How could that be? That's absolutely not the case! We will only remember your generosity and righteousness. Besides, we're just hanging out today. We're not wearing navy uniforms. We're not carrying out any mission against you. You know, how about... just go to hell!"
Jer scratched his head and laughed awkwardly. As he was talking, he suddenly took out two grenades from behind and threw them at Becky and the others.
"I rely on!"
"Careful! There's a bomb!"
The mafia were shocked and immediately fell into panic. They didn't expect that a well-dressed navy man could use even more despicable means than them.
"Protect the Godfather!"
"Don't panic!"
Before Becky could stabilize the situation, she was knocked down and pinned down by a dozen loyal men.
