Above Pirate King - Chapter 156
“My name is Cariva… um… now I’m called Mary, an emotionless spy, and right now, I’m very… um… very flustered.”
“Don’t ask me why I’m emotionless but still feeling flustered, I just am!”
“Can anyone tell me what to do when I’m caught infiltrating right in front of the enemies’ faces?”
“I’m waiting!”
“It’s urgent!”
“Because the enemies are not playing by the rules at all!”
“Why is their first reaction upon seeing a cute five-year-old girl like me to attack?”
Facing the two little ones rushing towards her, who were even shorter than her legs, Mary didn’t care at all. Instead, she was briefly lost in thought, considering what to do.
Looking at Smoothie’s expression, it was evident that she knew Mary was an enemy, which means she had been exposed!
Exposed in the palace!
She lowered her head and looked at her own body. With her five-year-old physique, it was entirely impossible for her to run out of the palace!
What should she do?
Suddenly, in her absent-minded eyes, the figures of the two little ones appeared, and her eyes gradually brightened.
“Got it!’
Looking at the attire of the two little ones rushing towards her, it was obvious that they weren’t ordinary people!
In other words, these two little ones were extraordinary!
Considering her current location, the identities of the two little ones were already evident!
They must be the prince and princess of this kingdom!
If she could kidnap one of them, not only could she safely leave the palace, but she could also use them as leverage to force the king of this kingdom to hand over the people that the higher-ups wanted!
However, she glanced at Smoothie, who was smiling as she looked at the two little ones charging forward, although Mary didn’t know why Smoothie wasn’t taking action herself and was watching the two little ones, she felt the need to end this quickly. She couldn’t give Smoothie time to react, or things would become troublesome later!
After thinking for some time, she acte.
Mary’s eyes sharpened as she carefully observed the two little ones rushing at her, raising her fist, preparing for a decisive blow!
As they got closer!
At this moment!
Mary launched a fierce punch directly towards Gilgamesh.
“Bang!”
Gilgamesh smiled slightly, as if he had expected it, he tilted his head, dodging Mary’s punch, and then struck back with a punch that hit Mary’s stomach heavily.
“Ouch… ugh!”
Mary staggered back two steps, intense pain shooting up from her stomach, and she couldn’t help but let out a muffled groan!
A twisted and painful expression appeared on Mary’s face.
“Who the heck can tell me!”
“Why is this little one who’s not even as tall as my legs punching so hard!”
Before Mary could think further, Artoria’s attack followed. A flying kick came straight towards Mary’s face.
“Bang!”
Just recovering from the pain, Mary was kicked like a rolling gourd, spinning a few times on the ground before finally coming to a stop. Even the Camera Den Den Mushi she had prepared to capture evidence was flung away.
“Watch my kick!”
But the attacks weren’t over. Gilgamesh chased after and kicked towards Mary lying on the ground.
Fortunately, these two attacks had completely woken Mary up. She understood now that these two little ones before her were definitely not easy to deal with!
“Bang!”
She reached out and blocked Gilgamesh’s kick and used the force to roll twice, creating some distance between them. She quickly climbed up and assumed a defensive stance.
“Ruffian!”
Just as Gilgamesh’s attack landed, Artoria followed up with another punch directly towards Mary.
Luckily, this time Mary was prepared. She blocked Artoria’s fist with her right hand and then used her left hand to slap away Gilgamesh’s leg that came flying at her!
In this way, the two little ones and the little girl battled each other. Gilgamesh and Artoria had the advantage of experience and good coordination, while Mary had the advantage of being older and physically stronger than the two little ones.
As a result, for a while, the three of them couldn’t determine the winner!
——————————-
Harbor Town
“Squawk—”
Seagulls circled above the small town.
After experiencing the ravages of war, Harbor Town had healed with time, and its scars had long since disappeared! And due to the development of the kingdom, the town had begun to slowly expand. If nothing unexpected happened, in a few years, Harbor Town could be renamed Harbor City!
Hugmore carried his suitcase and strolled through the streets of Harbor Town, heading towards the harbor direction at a leisurely pace.
Just a moment ago, after leaving the city, he took a big detour and finally managed to shake off the people who were monitoring him.
However, he felt no happiness!
“Phew—”
“Whoosh!”
As he got closer to the harbor, a gentle sea breeze blew on his face, and the sound of the waves grew louder. At the same time, his heart grew increasingly uneasy.
As a special worker, um… a special agent, he had great faith in his intuition. So he involuntarily slowed down, waiting for someone’s arrival.
“Clack clack clack!”
At this moment, the sound of high heels came from behind him.
“Here?” Hugmore didn’t turn his head, furrowing his brows with some dissatisfaction as he asked.
“Yes!” Poi nodded, walking to his side and explained, “There were many people tracking me, and it took me some effort to shake them off!”
“No need to explain, let’s go quickly. I have a bad feeling!” Hugmore waved his hand, his face serious.
“Okay!” Poi also started to feel that something was off around them. No kidding, it was too quiet!
Harbor Town was still a small town!
So why was there not a single sound of people?
The two of them involuntarily quickened their pace and soon arrived at the harbor.
Suddenly, their bodies trembled, and their footsteps came to a stop. Their pupils contracted, their faces showing a hint of fear as they looked ahead.
In front of them, a person dressed in golden armor was half-reclining on a beach chair, holding a black rose in his hand!
Aphrodite!
Having spent so long in the St. Martin Kingdom, they naturally recognized the Golden Saint!
“Where are you two headed? Heaven? Shall I send you there? Rest assured, it’s free!” Aphrodite looked at them, a sneer appearing on his face.
“Haha!” Hugmore forced a laugh and said, “Lord Aphrodite is joking. The two of us are just here to admire the scenery!”
“I don’t care if you’re here to admire the scenery or not. As long as you explain your origins and purpose, I can spare your lives!” Aphrodite stared at them, a dangerous smile on his face. He rubbed the black rose in his hand with his index finger and thumb.
“Ah, Lord Aphrodite is joking again. We are just ordinary citizens of the kingdom. What kind of origins could we possibly have?” Hugmore gave Poi a signal with his eyes.
“So, you two are not going to be honest?” Aphrodite looked at them playfully, the black rose in his hand spinning even faster!
This time, the two didn’t speak any further but showed their intentions through actions.
“Bang!”
The two stomped the ground fiercely, creating a small pit, and quickly fled, one on the left and the other on the right.
