Chapter 356 The Stubborn Pirates [Happy May Day, and by the Way, I Want Double the Monthly Tickets]

Although he took the initiative to fire the first shot, Xie Wen could clearly see that the shot was aimed at the bottom of the ship.

In other words, Shirahoshi still held back. She did not intend to attack the pirates directly, but only wanted to destroy their ship so that they could not continue to pursue.

The idea was still a bit naive, but it was understandable.

You know, Xie Wen did not even want to kill people in front of Kleemeow at the beginning. He suddenly traveled through time from peacetime, and he could understand Shirahoshi's mental journey very well, and even admired this little girl.

Because he was an adult before he traveled through time, and his experience was much broader than that of Shirahoshi who was trapped in the hard shell tower for several years. He also had inherited memories to further strengthen his willpower. The most important thing was that there was a cat to comfort his soul, so there was not much ripples in the change of mentality.

And Shirahoshi, who was obviously very timid, could force herself to do something she didn't like or even feared for her mother and her people. This was a very remarkable thing.

Meowx also saw that Shirahoshi's shot was deliberately off target, but she didn't mean to blame him. Instead, she patted Shirahoshi's head and gave her advice: "Fool! A few gaps can't stop those greedy pirates. If you want to stop them, you should shoot their masts and sails, meow!"

"Yes!"

Finding that Meowx was not dissatisfied with her for holding back, Shirahoshi's spirits suddenly lifted. She held the Lasu gun with both hands and pulled the trigger repeatedly. Following Meowx's instructions, she shot at the masts of the pirate ships.

But the pirates on the ship were not dead. They didn't expect the opponent to be so accurate at such a long distance with Shirahoshi's first shot. After preparation, Shirahoshi's shells were basically blocked, and the few that hit were also shot off target. They failed to break the masts, but instead killed a few unlucky guys nearby.

Shirahoshi, who noticed this with her observation Haki, stiffened slightly, but after biting her lower lip, she continued to shoot at the pirate ships... but her accuracy was much worse all of a sudden, and it was obvious that she couldn't keep a normal mind to activate her observation Haki.

"It's okay, Shirahoshi, don't force yourself too much, we still have a lot of time, take your time."

Xie Wen persuaded again, and on the other side, Robin also silently activated the fruit ability and gently took the gun from Shirahoshi's hand.

"Thank you, thank you, boss Wen..."

This time, Shirahoshi didn't be stubborn anymore, and let Robin take off the gun in his hand, and then looked down at Xie Wen with tears in her eyes.

"You've done a great job, now go and comb the hair of Klee and Xiao Ai, leave this to us."

Xie Wen patted Shirahoshi's arm and said softly.

Meowx, who was squatting on top of her head, patted Shirahoshi's head with her little paws and said something nice: "Xie Wen is right. You are a coward and you can perform like this in your first battle. I have a new respect for you, meow!"

And Klee and Huiyuan, who were mentioned by Xie Wen, also took the initiative to climb onto Shirahoshi's body, gently rubbing her face while making cute "meow meow" sounds.

With Xie Wen's persuasion and the cats' healing, Shirahoshi burst into laughter and stepped aside with the two kittens in her arms.

"I want to watch here."

This was Shirahoshi's last insistence, and Xie Wen did not persuade her again.

And while they were busy dealing with Shirahoshi's psychological problems, the pirate ships gradually approached and began to fire shells at the Toot Toot Advance in return.

"Meowhahahaha! It's my turn this time, meow! Come and say hello to my friends of different sizes!"

(=`=)l▄︻╤

Meowx jumped down from Shirahoshi's head, stood on the railing at the stern of the Toot Toot Advance, and set up her favorite gun to shoot at the pirate ship behind.

Although the little crazy cat has not awakened her observation Haki yet, she can hit at least 70 to 80 percent of the targets at such a long distance on the bumpy sea surface with just her shooting talent...

Of course, the premise is that those targets did not dodge or resist.

The pirates who had seen Meowx's firepower suppression on Briskilde Island before were certainly not unprepared. They prepared shelters early, and several of them used their abilities to create shields to protect their ships.

After Meowx fired a round with the Boom Gun, he found that it didn't have much effect on the pirates. However, the little crazy cat still laughed and emptied the magazine, then put away the Boom Gun and replaced it with the fish bone on his shoulder.

"3, 41, 9, and take off, meow~"

The Death Missile with triangular eyes and fangs flew towards the fleet of pirates with a long tail flame.

Although they had never seen the power of the Super Ultimate Death Missile before, the pirates were not interested in experiencing it. Among the leading ships, a captain who was good at shooting set up a flintlock with an exaggerated length and a trumpet-shaped muzzle, aimed at the Death Missile in the air and pulled the trigger.

A black bullet with an armed color accurately hit the Death Missile in the air and detonated it instantly...

"Boom--!!!"

However, the pirates still underestimated the power of the Death Missile that was improved by Klee. The detonated Death Missile caused a huge storm on the sea, instantly disrupting the pirates' fleet and pushing the Toot-Toot-Forward a lot further.

However, Meowx was not satisfied with this situation...

"Oh no! Could they be scared away, meow?"

The little crazy cat, worried that he would have nothing to play with, took the initiative to put away his weapon, put his little paw on his forehead, stood on tiptoe and looked at the stern, while shouting loudly: "Xie Wen, there should be no one else, let's turn the bow back! It would be bad if they escape, meow!"

Xie Wen thought about it and it was true. He had been keeping a distance from the pirates before, mainly because he was considering Shirahoshi. Since she was not participating in the battle for the time being, there was naturally no need to play with them...

In addition, he was also worried that the pirates would be scared by the explosion just now and choose to run away.

He saw that there was a fruit ability user among the pirates just now, and he couldn't let him go this time!

For this reason, Xie Wen asked Meow Juro and the others to turn the bow, and at the same time, he specially reminded Meowx: "Don't use the Death Missile. If you blow them all up, it will be difficult to collect the spoils."

"Oh, if you didn't say it, I almost forgot about Meow!" Meowx shook his ears, and then said, "But I didn't plan to use it again."

The little crazy cat changed back to the bang bang gun with a depressed expression, and muttered unwillingly: "It seems that I have to upgrade the firing speed of the fish bone... And that domineering, how can I learn Meow?!"

On the other side, the group of pirates had no intention of escaping. After a brief chaos, they quickly stabilized their respective pirate ships and continued to chase Xie Wen and the others.

"Huh? Are these guys unexpectedly stubborn?"

Xie Wen originally thought that they would be more cautious in character because they chose to stay put on Biriskiled Island before, but they didn't expect that they were quite courageous after taking action.

Well, the main reason is that Xie Wen didn’t know at this time that this group of pirates had gone to find another Shichibukai to support them.
