Pirate Bloody Hand Mary

"This guy is a sniper..."

Enxia narrowed her eyes and stared at Fan Oka in the distance.

This look... As a sniper who is also famous on the sea, she is very familiar with it.

After Van Oka glanced at Enxia, ​​he immediately hid in the surrounding ruins.

"..." Enxia took two steps forward and said, "Dasqi... you go on to the battlefield to provide support."

"This guy is Van Oka. I've heard that he's... a very powerful sniper."

"Just let me come and meet him..."

"..."

Dasqi looked at Enxia and nodded.

"be safe."

After saying that, she immediately stepped away and rushed to support the other lieutenant generals without stopping.

Enxia grinned, and then mist filled her body.

Those with natural fruit and mist fruit abilities.

"Then, next..."

Enxia's body gradually disappeared into the mist, and only her bright eyes remained sharp.

"[Otonue] Van Oka...the legendary sniper who transcends sight and color, let me see him..."

She gave a rather bloodthirsty and excited smile.

"I have never had a good fight with a legendary sniper..."

The green mist spread instantly and gradually enveloped the battlefield.

Marie Joa's visibility suddenly dropped sharply. Without the domineering person, no one could be seen twenty meters away.

While creating the most suitable battlefield for Enxia, ​​this mist also divided the entire Mariejoia battlefield.

Information transfer between CPs became more difficult, and the navy's advantage quickly grew.

The wet mist silenced the surrounding sounds, and the sounds of burning and artillery fire slowly disappeared.

The mist of Enshia can prevent the transmission of various information to a certain extent, not only the visual sense, but also the sense of smell and hearing will be interfered to a certain extent.

Enxia himself can elementalize himself, spread the mist formed by [his own body] throughout the fog area, and detect various actions that occur in the fog area based on the wind flow in the fog area.

This principle is somewhat similar to Mary's blood mist detection.

Enxia specially developed his fruit ability to enhance his sniper advantage in all aspects.

"Whoosh——"

As soon as the fog spread out, Enxiya found a bullet shot towards him from a tiny gap.

The target is very clear, it is your own head.

She dodged to the right without hesitation, turned sideways to dodge the bullet, and then fired a backhand shot at the place where the bullet came from.

"winter."

"Didn't it hit..."

Enxia said softly.

In the sound feedback that just came...she didn't hear the sound of blood spurting out.

Based on the reaction coming from the mist, she could only hear the sound of masonry breaking.

"Tap tap tap!"

"Here!?"

Enxia's figure suddenly shook, he held the gun in both hands, and fired a shot in one direction.

Then, her body lowered, and a bullet passed over the top of her head, scattering her flying long hair.

Then, after a moment of silence, three consecutive bullets were fired from a distance.

Enxia didn't hesitate for a moment and immediately moved a little to the right, narrowly escaping the bullet.

This time her eyes were a little serious.

'In my mist, you can dodge my bullets so easily...'

‘And you can easily determine my position... based on the direction of the bullet? The source of the bullet can actually be determined with a flash of lightning...'

She settled down to think.

The nature-type Mist Fruit's ability is not very strong, at least it's not as aggressive. Therefore, when developing Enxia, ​​we paid great attention to the structure of the site. She knew how strongly her mist interfered with seeing and hearing Haki.

In order to achieve the perfect effect, she even strengthened the mist to the point where even her own sight color could not penetrate it, sacrificing her own sight color detection and relying only on the feeling of the mist itself for detection.

If you want to forcefully break through your own fog and use the color of knowledge to build an advantage, in Enxia's concept, only the monster called Yixiao from the Desert Alliance can do it.

And according to Yixiao himself... there are not more than five fingers in the world who can reach his level of knowledge and color domineering.

To say that Fan Oka on the opposite side is one of them... at least Nxiya doesn't believe it.

That is to say...

‘Sure enough, do top snipers all have their own unique detection system? ’

She grinned: "Hey, can you hear me?"

"..."

no response.

Her mist can greatly weaken the propagation of sound, and she is not shouting loudly. Normally, it is normal for the other party not to hear her voice.

And Van Oka indeed did not launch an attack.

"...Isn't it because of the specialization of hearing?"

Enxia murmured softly.

She is now testing Van Oka's method of locating her. There are only two important points in a sniper battle: the first is to hide one's own position, and the second is to determine the opponent's position. Now the second time Van Oka's action stirs up the fog, she can find it immediately. The key is one.

If she knew how Van Oka positioned her, she could in turn make it impossible for Van Oka to locate her or even deliberately mislead him.

Of course, you can't determine the opponent's specific fighting style just by saying a word. There is no room for carelessness in this kind of battle where one shot can determine life or death.

"If you don't respond..."

Enxia aimed the gun at the general direction where he just sensed Van Oka's position.

"Then let me force you out!"

"Pong!"

The bullet missed as expected, and Nxiya didn't think he could hit it. After all, the sniper had to move to another place every time he fired.

However, when her bullet pierced the wall, she immediately felt a bullet appear from a place not far from her target and shoot towards herself.

She turned to the right to dodge the bullets and at the same time raised her sniper with one hand and aimed a shot.

"call!"

She had just raised the muzzle of the gun and before the bullet was fired, Van Oka ran ahead of time.

The sniper's positioning habits.

"Pong!"

"Pong!"

Enshia predicted the right spot and fired a shot, but Van Oka's speed changed strangely, and her bullet missed.

At the same time, after her gun was empty, Fan Oka immediately stopped suddenly, swung the gun and shot Nxia.

"Tsk!"

Enxia took a sip a little irritably and hid beside the ruins on the right.

The gunfight ended, and the fog area fell into silence again.

"Except for the first shot, other times, the other side fired after I fired..."

Enxia murmured: "When I shot the first shot, I had just started to release the mist... My position at that time had not changed from before, so I could directly rely on my previous memory to shoot."

"All Neyue's subsequent shots were shot from behind... Didn't the opponent have any means of proactive positioning?"

"Did you find my location because of my shooting?"

This idea needs to be verified.

With Van Oka motionless, Encia could not judge his position through the fluctuations in the mist. But fortunately, she doesn't need to worry about being disturbed by fighting in other parts of the battlefield.

Because in essence, the mist that feels the flow of gas is the mist formed by her body. This kind of mist is restricted by her to be distributed near the area where Van Oka is located, and will not be disturbed too much.

The two snipers just kept silent, waiting for an opportunity to appear.

And this opportunity was brought by Van Oka.

He stood up first and continued running with a strangely variable pace, immediately exposing his position to Enxia.

This kind of aboveboard running behavior obviously has a purpose, but Enxia can't think too much at this time, because the other party's behavior also suits her purpose.

She fired a shot into the air almost without hesitation, and at the same time, Van Oka's gunshot rang out shortly after.

But the bullet missed the right side of Enxia with great imprecision.

The next moment, Nshia predicted Van Oka's position and fired a shot.

Unsurprisingly, Van Oka's gun followed suit and shot at Nthia.

Enxia's hole shrank slightly. She could feel that this [one shot] was far more than just one shot. Fan Oka fired four shots in a row. One shot targeted Nxia with extreme accuracy, and the other three shots were scattered. On the right side of Enxia, ​​four positions were blocked.

Nxiya, who was about to dodge to the right, almost stopped forcibly and fell backwards.

After rolling twice in a row, he pushed back and fired a ballistic shot. Then he didn't care whether the shot hit or not. He rolled several times and hid in the ruins.

The mist became quiet again.

‘Sure enough, what Yin Yue uses to determine the location is not sound. ’

Enxia was almost certain of his judgment this time. The first shot she fired deliberately into the sky was to rule out the possibility that the other party was indeed using sound positioning and had deliberately not fired before to mislead her.

She observed Van Oka's shooting habits and shooting intervals. The opponent's shots were fast and accurate, with almost no delay or concealment. This made her realize that Van Oka was the kind of sniper who relied on his own instinct to snipe.

This kind of sniper will rely on his own subconscious reaction to shoot. Although when his ability is poor, this shooting method will make his shooting accuracy extremely poor, but once the opponent's sniping level increases, this shooting method will bring The threat will grow exponentially.

Ordinary snipers simply cannot move fast enough and are easily killed by this subconscious sniper attack.

Enxia knows this very well, and why...her sniping method was born out of this sniping method in the early days.

It was just that later on, because as a pirate hunter, he usually took the initiative and rarely engaged in sniper battles, he gradually changed his sniping method.

It is precisely because of this that Enxia was able to deliberately design to fire a shot in advance to lure Van Oka.

The sound of the gunshot was incomparable to her words in terms of decibel size and sharpness. Even if it is blocked by her mist, such gunshots will definitely reach the other party's ears.

For a qualified sniper, even if he has his own unique detection skills, positioning by listening is the most basic skill - even if the accuracy of this positioning method is not high.

And Nxiya also caught Van Oka's instinctive shooting reaction and induced the opponent to take action. As expected, the opponent immediately shot - but it was indeed a little off.

And when she then aimed her shot in Van Oka's direction, Van Oka could not only find her position immediately, but he could also fire four shots almost at the same time, which not only made her almost mistakenly think that the other party only shot once, She also directly blocked her dodge position. If she hadn't been able to directly confirm the bullet fired by the opponent, she would have really succeeded.

This can also directly confirm Enxia's judgment - Van Oka is indeed conducting a defensive counterattack.

Maybe it's because the fog interferes with him too much, making it difficult for him to take the initiative to attack, but... this also shows that the opponent's current method of finding enemies is probably very simple, otherwise there is no need to use such a passive style of play.

You must know that in order to defend and counterattack, you must first be attacked. This risk can be said to be very high.

Unless forced, no sniper would take the initiative to expose his position.

Defense counterattack...reverse the position based on your own bullets, but not based on the sound - at least the sound is only an auxiliary and cannot support precise positioning.

Then the reference object that allows him to feel when he is attacked and can deduce the precise location better than sound is...

"The air flow caused by the bullet when it is fired?"

Enxia was stunned for a moment, and made this judgment almost without much hesitation.

The reason for making this judgment is also very simple...because she is essentially relying on airflow for positioning.

Just when Enxia confirmed Fan Oka's positioning method, Fan Oka also smiled grimly.

He hadn't encountered a decent sniper opponent for a long time. He originally wanted to challenge Jesus Bu of the red-haired pirates or the tea dolphins of the navy, but he didn't expect to meet a good opponent here.

And just like Enshia deduced Van Oka's attack method, Van Oka has also deduced many information such as the opponent's positioning method, shooting habits and even dodge habits.

This mist is created by the opponent's Devil Fruit, and the mist is a natural fruit. This fruit's ability is clearly recorded in the Devil Fruit Illustrated Book.

Since it is an element created by the natural system, it is an ownerless thing to a certain extent. The inability to expand one's own sight color means that the other party's sight color cannot also expand - unless the other party's sight color is much stronger than one's own.

Of course, Fan Oka is confident that Enshia's knowledge is not much better than his own.

And he also noticed that every time he shot, the other party could counter-sniper. This means that the other party is likely to have the same ability to feel the air flow as you do.

Although unlike Nxiya, Van Oka remained silent throughout the whole process, he found that every time he ran, Nxiya could find his position and make pre-judged shots.

This cannot be done by relying on sound. The prerequisite for being able to predict the position is at least being able to figure out parameters such as one's own speed, running angle, distance between the two parties, or... directly [see] oneself.

And if the other party relies on airflow for positioning like you do, then the biggest difference between them and yourself is probably the mist.

The opponent's elemental body is scattered around him, and every time he shoots and moves, the air flow he stirs up will attract the opponent's attention.

After several trials, Van Oka also figured out Nxiya's positioning method. Moreover, through Nxiya's deliberate missed shot and his subconscious firing, he also realized that the other party had probably determined him. positioning method.

However, even though he is in the opponent's absolute home court like fog, Van Oka still has two advantages over Nshia.

First, judging from the failure of the opponent's predicted shot just now, the opponent has not yet figured out the law of changing his pace. But on the contrary, the opponent's dodge method is relatively simple, which is to dodge to the right - every time after he is exposed, the opponent's shooting point is slightly to the left compared to before. This is an advantage you can take advantage of.

second……

Van Oka took off his gloves.

You are not the only one who has Devil Fruit abilities.

At this moment, Fan Oka and Nxiya showed bloodthirsty smiles at the same time.

They simultaneously thought of a way to defeat each other!

——

"Encia!—?"

Ashe's voice suddenly came from the mist.
