The arrival of the red-haired Shanks was unexpected by Maude.
Although the opponent looked very kind from the time he entered the door, Maude only planned to stay silent and watch until the opponent left.
But after listening to the conversation between Yasopp and Sonny, he couldn’t calmly wait and see.
Firearms are the most urgent upgrade tool he currently lacks.
Originally wanted to start from Saul, but when he first arrived, how could he get a gun in the short term?
Then Yasopp came and threw an opportunity.
At this time, how could Maude continue to wait and see, and directly asked Yasopp to ask for the aging smooth-bore flintlock.
No loss for being rejected.
Go to the gun blood to earn.
This was his thought before he decided to come forward and brush up on his presence.
“he is?”
Shanks tilted his head to look at the frowning Sonny at the counter, and asked with interest.
During the previous meeting, the boy’s reaction made Shanks realize that the other party knew him.
But this kind of thing doesn’t matter.
But before that, who would have thought that the young man who had consciously reduced his sense of existence would suddenly take the initiative to ask Yasopp for a gun?
The contrast between the front and the back is so great, which is interesting.
“He is Maude, Saul’s new recruit… employee.”
Sonny answered Shanks’ question.
Shanks nodded slightly and turned to look at Yasopp.
The latter is examining Maude.
“You can use a gun?”
This is the first question Yasopp raised.
“Can!”
Maude answered without any hesitation.
Yasopp’s eyes suddenly became sharp.
He is not a sniper of a second-rate pirate group. With his patience, how can he fail to see that Maude is a weak boy who has never touched a gun.
“But I don’t believe it.”
Between a smile, Yasopp’s eyes were like a loaded gun.
Bullying children has always been one of his trivial interests, and considering that Maude is an employee of Mr. Saul, he doesn’t mind wasting time on Maude.
Maude, on the other hand, faced Yasopp with his gaze that seemed to burn all the lies, and said seriously: “How can you believe it?”
Yasopp was a little surprised at the time.
Because Maude’s expression and tone did not seem to be lying.
But Yasopp would not doubt his judgment on this.
He calmly looked at Maude’s eyes, suddenly reached out and picked up the 3.8 million Bailey pistol on the counter, and then completed the relatively cumbersome steps of filling the gunpowder within one breath.
“Prove it to me.”
Yasopp loaded the gun and handed it to Maude.
Maude did not take the gun for the first time, but pointed to the aging smoothbore flintlock on the counter and asked: “After the proof, will you give me that gun?”
“no problem.”
Yasopp laughed.
Maude nodded, strode forward, and took the expensive pistol in Yasopp.
He knows that the next success or failure will be between one bullet.
So, how to prove it?
After thinking about it, Maude saw that he had just concealed it, leaving a shop door cracked.
The idea came up, Maude walked quickly to the wall farthest from the store door, and then turned to face the store door.
Without any notification, Maude quickly raised his gun at the store door, and immediately pulled the trigger without any pause.
boom–
The tongue of fire carried gun smoke out of the muzzle, and a hot lead bullet flew out, passing through the crack of the door at a speed that was hard to see with the naked eye.
The smell of gunpowder smoke filled the air after the gunpowder was fully burned, and Maude still maintained the standard motion of raising the gun.
In this case, he has no time to worry about the possibility of accidentally hurting passers-by.
Shanks and Yasopp looked at the crack of the door, and with their eyes, they could see that the wooden door was safe and sound.
Moreover, the gap in the door is not large, and it can only pass through two lead bullets at the same time.
Regardless of Maude’s standard gun-raising action, from raising the gun to pulling the trigger can be said to be done in one go, giving people a sense of sight without aiming.
Although it is only a dozen meters, Maude is undoubtedly able to use a gun.
Inside the counter, Sonny looked at Maude in amazement.
She didn’t expect Maude to have good marksmanship.
“Marksmanship is good.”
Shanks was the one who spoke in praise.
Of course, such marksmanship is nothing at all in the Grand Line.
But if it is placed at this moment, it is also worthy of praise.
Yasopp said nothing. As an activist, he directly picked up the smooth-bore flintlock that he called the old man, and then walked towards Maude.
“This is yours.”
“thanks.”
Maude returned the pistol to Yasopp first, and then took the flintlock shot.
Finally there is a gun…
“Yasopp, you will sometimes miss your eyes.”
Shanks patted Yasopp on the shoulder from behind, giving comfort in a timely manner.
Yasopp pouted his lips, too lazy to deal with the thorny attack in the boss’s words.
Did you really miss it?
He glanced at Maude, who was turning over and over with a gun, and there was always a lingering sense of contradiction.
Seeing that he has never touched a gun before, but he has such a standard gun-raising action, as well as the necessary sense of being a gunner… gun!
never mind.
Yasopp shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
“Boss, the wine is here.”
At this time, Lucky Roo’s voice came from the back room.
“good.”
Shanks replied, then looked at Sonny and smiled: “Little Nini, remember to say hello to Saul for me.”
“No need!”
Before Sonny spoke, Saul’s voice came in from outside.
Hearing that voice, it seemed that there was still some distance from the shop, and I didn’t know how he heard Shanks’ words.
Shanks sighed when he heard Saul coming from afar: “This is trouble.”
As soon as the voice fell, he heard rapid footsteps coming from far and near.
Only for a moment, the wooden door was pushed open by force.
Saul rushed into the store in a hurry, just in time to see Lucky Roo carrying out the wooden barrels full of mellow wine, he was suddenly furious.
“Okay you Shanks, stealing wine again!!!”
“What is stealing? We have paid. If you don’t believe me, ask Little Nini.”
“Don’t push the problem to juniors, I won’t sell you this wine!”
“Haha, anyway, the money and goods have been cleared, and it is too late for you to regret it now.”
“Go away, don’t let me see you again!”
“That won’t work, unless you sell me the place where the wine is hidden.”
Shanks had a look on your face that you couldn’t take me, and Saul was flushed with anger, and was almost about to lie on the ground to touch porcelain on the spot.
Yasopp and Lucky Roo did not intervene, while Sonny held her forehead and said nothing.
As for Maude, he retreated to the back room when Saul yelled his first sentence.
However, instead of going up to the second floor, he stood at the top of the stairs, watching the movement in the store.
Although unbelievable, Saul and Shanks seem to be familiar.
