Chapter 42: Apophis
The grimace-masked man didn't have time to think about it, and he was pushed aside by an irresistible force, but his heart settled down, "Didn't kill me?" It seems that this guy is a high imitation at best. ”
The grimace-masked man who consciously found confidence was about to step forward to theorize, but found that the pirates around him were looking at him with fearful eyes, and he couldn't help but feel more confident, "You guys, go and kill that impostor for me!" ”
"Ahh
Who knows, after he spoke, those pirates actually screamed, either fleeing from the guild in a panic, or losing their strength and slumping on the ground.
Seeing this, the grimace-masked man was also a little frightened in his heart, and then he realized that something seemed to be wrong with his voice, and the scenery in his eyes seemed to overlap, as if the whole world was tilting over.
"I ...... What's wrong with me? The grimace-masked man forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart and looked at the mirror at the front desk, suddenly stunned.
I saw that the mask on his face in the mirror had long been broken, and a little blood line from the center of his eyebrows to his crotch was like a lotus root split from the middle, and it was only by relying on the blood line that his two halves of his body were held together.
"I ...... I'm already dead? The grimace-masked man was stunned, and after the thought arose, he was shocked to find that the blood line was cut off, and the torn body began to collapse to the sides.
"No, don't, I don't want to die!" The grimace-masked man pressed his hands on the heads on both sides and forcibly put them together in the middle, this seeping scene made many pirates shake their lower bodies, and even the warm and moist touch filled the crotch.
Rumble!
The body torn in half collapsed with a bang, and there was no breath of life left.
Seeing that the impostor was finally dead, the other pirates all breathed a long sigh of relief, as pirates licking blood from the knife edge, they had long been surprised by dead people or something, but the half-dead and half-alive monsters were still beyond their psychological capacity.
Thinking of this, those pirates who didn't have time to escape all looked at the man sitting at the front desk with fear, this bloody and supernatural method has proved his identity, and he is called the traveler from hell - the magic sword Apophis!
If they had only admired the power of Apophis because of legends, they were now afraid of Apophis' means because of their own witnesses.
That's the fear that goes deep into the soul!
At this time, even if the real Apophis proposed to recruit a crew, no one would dare to come up like before, they did yearn for a strong and brutal captain, but Apophis completely exceeded their definition of brutality.
"Intelligence." In this atmosphere where the air was frozen, Apophis spoke indifferently.
"Huh? What the? The bald guild director obviously didn't react, and asked in a daze, and then suddenly remembered the fate of the imposter before, his face turned pale with fright, lost his blood, and hurriedly responded, "Yes, yes, I will bring you all the information immediately." ”
As if drunk, the director stumbled backwards on his legs, and as he passed by the mirror, he glanced into the mirror with great determination.
"Nose, eyebrows, eyes, mouth...... It's all there, I'm alive, I'm alive! The Director laughed madly in his heart, and his steps fluttered a little, and he actually crashed headlong into the wall and recklessly entered.
Seeing the director's funny scene, those pirates who sat on the ground and didn't dare to get up didn't have the slightest disdain in their hearts, but they were afraid that they would be even more unbearable.
After all, many of them were swimming in the sea of urine and did not dare to move their nests, for fear of making the slightest noise to attract the attention of the person.
The few reception staff who were left behind by the supervisor were about to cry, they couldn't move now, they didn't move, they just felt like they were sitting on pins and needles, and they were 10,000 times more uncomfortable than when the eldest aunt came.
"It's coming, it's coming!" As if he was worried that Apophis would be impatient, the bald director was still in the data room and consciously shouted, and the next moment he saw the director with a flattering smile on his face rushing out, "Lord Apophis, according to the rules of the guild, as a four-star hunter, you can only browse the news of four stars and below, but I am in charge of taking out all the information in the branch, and you can read as much as you want." ”
Seeing that Apophis looked through the information without any reaction or expression, the bald director breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, as long as he could send this great demon king away.
What's more, the information in his branch is only five-star, and judging from the fact that Apophis easily tortured and killed the ogre Barlow with a bounty of 92 million, it is not too much to list him as a five-star hunter in advance.
The star rating of the Hunter Guild is very simple, as long as the registered ones are one-star hunters, pirates who have hunted pirates with a bounty of more than 10 million Bailey will be automatically promoted to two stars, and those who have hunted more than 30 million are three-star, and so on, four-star is more than 50 million, five-star is more than 100 million, six-star is more than 300 million, and seven-star is to hunt pirates who have been recognized by the navy and government.
And the hunting method is even more simple and crude, no matter what method is used, whether it is assassination or poisoning, even if it is a leak, as long as you can get the target head, you can get the approval of the Hunter Guild.
In a sense, the Hunters' Guild itself can be regarded as a means for the world government to recruit lone rangers, through the honorary status and various invisible benefits brought by star classification, so that those powerful who are not willing to be constrained by the navy or the government can work for the government in this way.
And invisible benefits mainly include two aspects, intelligence and merit.
The importance of intelligence is naturally particularly important in the pirate world, just like the ghost fruit, the childlike fruit or the lucky fruit, under the premise of not knowing the intelligence, even those strong people are easy to be recruited.
For those lone rangers who pride themselves on their strength, the Hunter Guild's intelligence network can make up for the shortcomings caused by not joining the forces to a certain extent.
Meritorious service, on the other hand, is the ability to buy things that cannot be bought by conventional means, such as some rare Devil Fruits or Great Quick Knives, or some weapons and equipment that have been eliminated by the government and navy but are still difficult to obtain in the outside world.
"Skull-crushed, Warren Buffett!"
Hearing Apophis' unemotional (harmonious) words, the bald director took out the file as quickly as he could in his life.
"Buffett, who was once active on the Great Voyage and offered a bounty of up to 120 million Bailey, withdrew from the Great Voyage ten years ago and established a mafia across several countries in the West Sea, involving drug trafficking, casinos, brothels, population, arms and other illegal businesses, with the West Sea as the center and radiating to the four seas and even the Great Voyage, and likes to manipulate everything behind the scenes."
"That man is a pure physical powerhouse, with the terrifying power to collapse the mountain with one punch, the weapon is the Three Blades, and the nest is located in the Atfi Kingdom in the West Sea."
Apophis accepted the file and opened the suitcase, revealing a bloody human head, with an expression on his face that seemed to be distorted to the extreme with fear.
"Ogre Barlow!" The bald director exclaimed, as the head of the Hunters' Guild branch, he instantly recognized that this was the murderous monster that was notorious among the pirates and liked to suck children's brains, but such a brutal pirate was still in fear before he died.
What kind of pain did he endure?
Just thinking about it made the bald supervisor shudder, and quickly said, "This 92 million Bailey, I will ...... immediately"
Before the words could be spoken, Apophis pushed his suitcase forward, turned around and walked out without saying a word.
The bald supervisor's first instinct was that he was dead!
He quickly looked in the mirror and found that all the body parts were still intact, and at the same time he was relieved and deliberately raised his voice, "Harry, hurry up and put the bounty on Master Apophis's account, remember to round it up to make up 100 million Baileys......"
