One Piece My Partner is Too Crooked - Chapter 26
Well, so weak!
Aqua and Luffy exclaimed in their hearts at the same time.
The brief exchange between the two happened almost in an instant. By the time Aqua and Luffy reacted, Icey had already fallen to the ground, clutching his cheek tightly and looking in agony.
“A cook is a cook. He only has this little skill and you still want to fight against me?”
Higuma couldn’t help but sneered and slowly bent down to pick up the long knife at his feet.
His attention was all on Icey not far away, and he didn’t notice that the blade that was supposed to pierce the opponent’s palm was not stained with any blood!
With an arrogant smile and a long knife, Higuma walked towards Icey step by step.
In his eyes, the restaurant owner who owed money was already a mute corpse.
It’s a pity, my 800,000 Berries…
Higuma Higumahed repeatedly in his heart.
Little did they know that Icey, who was lying on the ground groaning in pain across from him, was secretly reaching out with his other hand to touch the newly purchased flintlock musket hidden in his waist!
Although Icey’s eyes were filled with fear, the focus was always on Higuma.
As long as the complacent Higuma gets close enough, it will be a perfect opportunity for him to take out his gun and shoot his head!
The situation is going well. It only takes one face-to-face meeting to kill Higuma instantly and easily win the walking bounty of 8 million!
Looking at Higuma, who was getting closer, Icey clenched his gun and was highly concentrated. After receiving the bounty, He even started to plan what he wanted to do.
However, if nothing else happens, something will happen.
Not far away, water splashed, and a brilliant blue magic circle shone.
“All my followers in this world, please obey the order of Aqua, the goddess of water.”
“According to my request, fulfill my wish, show your power to the world, holy water is generated!”
Although Aqua is unreliable on weekdays, she can still be relied upon at critical moments.
Seeing that Icey was defeated so easily and would soon become a dead soul under Higuma’s sword, she looked determined and did not choose to run away but stood there and chanted magic.
Buzz!
A dazzling blue light appeared Icey and Higuma, and the runes flowed to build a complete water magic circle.
The sound of floodwaters accumulating and rushing in the magic circle resounded throughout this golden beach.
Damn it! This idiot goddess!!!
The moment he realized that the holy water-generating circle had appeared, the panic on Icey’s face turned into a true emotion from his heart.
Without hesitation, he decisively took out the flintlock rifle behind his back and aimed it at Higuma, looking up at the sky in astonishment, hoping to deal with the flood before it broke out.
However, he finally underestimated Aqua’s determination to rescue her friends.
Before the trigger was pulled, the rolling water fell from the sky, setting a violent wave on the beach!
Under this terrifying flood-level energy, Icey, Higuma, Luffy, and Aqua were all washed to pieces and tumbled in the rushing water.
Dozens of seconds later, the raging water gradually submerged into the ocean along the waves, and the surrounding area was in a mess.
Quicksand was flowing, gravel was everywhere, and countless pieces of wooden planks were scattered – the only docking platform in Windmill Village that could park a boat was washed away!
The soaked and embarrassed Higuma slowly stood up from the sand. The extremely familiar dizziness made him instantly furious, and he stared at Aqua, who happened to be washed away by the flood.
“I was just wondering why our stronghold was the only one affected. It turns out it’s you, a damn woman, who is behind this!”
Day after day, Higuma’s stronghold and people were flooded by inexplicable “heavy rain” for several days in a row.
Although that period was short, it was one of the few times he had that was full of darkness.
Until today, he had thought that he was simply unlucky. He never imagined that the culprit was the woman in front of him with a big problem with her brain!
“If I want to kill you, I will definitely chop you into pieces!!!”
Higuma, whose eyes were bloodshot, picked up the long knife and rushed towards Aqua, who was fatigued due to the release of holy water!
The enemy’s strength is reduced by 10%, and the anger value increases by 300%!
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, the weather is so hot. I just want to cool you down. Please don’t be so angry!”
A sincere Aqua quickly waved her hands and apologized.
But how could Higuma, who has a bloodthirsty and cruel personality, stop his actions because of this?
He came to Aqua quickly and had a strong murderous intention. Without any nonsense, he raised the long knife in his hand and slashed down directly!
Icey!
The sound of a sharp blade tearing clothes was heard, and the dark shadow completely covered Aqua, who was squatting on the ground and shivering.
At the critical moment, Icey appeared and blocked Higuma’s violent slash with his broad chest!
Looking through the cut-short sleeves, a slightly mini bloodshot appeared, running from his left shoulder to his right thigh.
With the yet-to-be-formed weapon and his strong defence, he withstood Higuma’s full-force slashing attack without any damage at all!
Ignoring Higuma, who was so shocked that he was sweating, Icey threw the flintlock gun that was soaked in water on the ground, turned around and yelled at Aqua:
“Idiot goddess! What kind of plane are you planning? How can anyone release a flood attack on their teammates?”
“One step away, just one step away, and I can blow Higuma’s head off with one shot!!”
Aqua was originally deeply moved by Icey’s behaviour of blocking the attack for herself without caring about her safety. When she heard such excessive words, her grievances and injustices surged in her heart, and she immediately defended herself angrily:
“Who told you to be so weak? You were knocked away as soon as we met, and you were almost hacked to death!”
“Anyway, you have rough skin and thick flesh. You can’t even break through the defense of a big black bear. You will definitely be fine if you get charged. I just want to use the holy water generation to interfere with the enemy’s actions!”
Hearing this, the corners of Icey’s mouth twitched, and his face was covered with black lines.
“… Haven’t you ever thought that I, who can’t even defeat a big black bear, was actually pretending to be defeated to make Higumaurd relax his vigilance?”
“Ah?” The fierce Aqua’s eyes instantly became clear.
With an awkward smile, she stretched out her palm and scratched her wet aqua hair, “It seems to be possible.”
well……
Looking at the mentally retarded goddess in front of him, Icey sighed heavily.
Leaving aside the bad results, Aqua’s original intention was indeed to help herself get out of the “crisis”, so what reason did he have to blame and dislike her?
and……
Icey’s eyes turned and glanced into the distance.
Luffy was struggling to pull out his head, which was buried in the sand.
Thanks to the flood and a combination of circumstances, Luffy finally got rid of Higuma’s restraint.
In Higuma’s hands, there is no longer any bargaining chip that limits him from showing his true strength!
“After I stabbed you with all my strength, it was just an ordinary skin wound? Icey, how much are you hiding!”
Higuma, who retreated to a safe distance, saw Icey, who had ended the argument and turned to look at him. The hand holding the knife trembled subconsciously.
As the bandit leader who dominates the surrounding mountains and forests, with hundreds of lives on his hands, he is afraid…
Those eyes are as fierce as beasts!
“Forget it Higuma, I won’t pretend anymore, let’s show my cards.”
Icey saw Higuma’s reaction in his eyes and flexed his knuckles with a smile.
“Actually, I am a master.”
