Chapter 66 - 66
Josh didn\'t seem to take the group that appeared in front of him seriously.
"Take me where Accino is." He demanded like it wasn\'t his concern to fight them. "Your choice. The easy way, or the hard way."
"Hey, don\'t look down us!" yelled the woman as she pointed her finger at Josh.
"We will just take you down. Do you think we have never taken a 200 million pirate down before…. Pffttt. We enslaved pirates like you and used them as baits." Said the blonde man in an arrogant tone.
" We will do it the easy way then." Josh nodded with his head toward Robin\'s direction.
Nodding at him, Robin waved her hand, and a couple of arms appeared behind the guy. Since Robin is stronger now, the same applies to her arms.
One of her arms rolled on the guy and chopped on his neck, making him hold his throat and bend down on his knees.
The other twin yelled "Big Brother." He bent down and tried to help his brother breathe.
"Are you aware of the situation," Josh asked, staring at them coldly.
"Bastard!"
The woman yelled, her skaters dancing on the ice as she circled around the blonde man.
The Blonde man held her hand and started dancing with her.
Mikita, who was standing on the side, noticed that this woman was wearing tightly around the chest area.
Somehow, it annoyed her that she is dancing in front of Josh, who was just observing.
Not wanting Josh to enjoy any useless show, Mikita decided to use the technique that he has been teaching her for the last weeks.
As she tightened her weight to half a kilo, she started kicking on the ground ten times instantly.
Since her Devil Fruit ability doesn\'t make her weaker, Shave was done perfectly. However, because her mass we light, she got faster. Mikita used Shave, pushing her in speed that was folded faster than anyone.
Josh followed her with his eyes. He must admit. Shave with her Devil Fruit ability gave Mikita a speed that was hard to follow with one\'s eyes, even for him.
It was really perfect Devil Fruit for any Martial Artist. Josh decided. In case Mikita awakened her Devil Fruit, he will give her a gun and teach her more martial arts.
The woman and the woman were coughs off guard as Mikita flashed with her fist in front of them.
When her punch landed on the man\'s face, she increased her mass to 15 metric tons, sending the man flying back with amazing swiftness.
The blue-haired woman opened her eyes widely, seeing that only blood, teeth, and some face bones were left in the blond man\'s original spot.
Mikita landed on her feet. Catching her opponent off guard, she put her weight on her leg and kicked down on the blue-haired woman, breaking her legs to shreds and making her fall on the ground
"Aghhh… AAA!!!"
The bounty huntress screamed with tears as she held her broken legs. Mikita stood above her and clapped her hands, sneering.
One can always forget how this blonde beautiful woman was a cruel bounty hunter.
"Kyahahahah, you still like to follow the easy way," Mikita said as she looked at the twin who stayed behind. "It\'s easy, for sure. Don\'t make it easier."
Marianne, who was watching this, hide behind Robin while staring at Mikita. "Your edge alone can kill her."
Those words of Marianne gained a knock on her head from Josh. "Don\'t. She may get sensitive." Said Josh.
Marianne held her hate and turned her face.
One of the twins was about to get punched by Mikita.
Lifting his hands, he screamed. "Wait! Wait! We are sorry! The hard way, easy way! Just don\'t punch me."
"Speak," Mikita said, doing the dirty job for Josh.
The twin bit on his lip, staring at Mikita\'s green eyes.
When his twin brother touched his hand, his facial expression suddenly changed.
Mikita was surprised when the twins shone in colours. One of them became red, while the other became blue. It was like magnetic.
When she realised what happened, one of them flew toward her with high speed, the scatter of his leg aimed at her neck.
Before Mikita could dodge, a pressed air blade passed by her, making a big slash appear on the man\'s chest. The man then flew back, leaving only a huge splash of blood in his place. Mikita quickly dodged the blood so she wouldn\'t get dirty.
Mikita had a smile as she turned toward Josh, who had just chopped in the air. Josh, for sure, has become way stronger after becoming a wanted criminal. Mikita is still feeling safe when being next to him, even though there is a bounty on their head. Josh only smiled at her.
The twin, who was shining in red, lost his glow and became normal again as he looked at Josh, gulping.
The smile vanished from Josh\'s face, getting replaced by a cold expression.
He looked at the still-standing twin.
"You said you wanted my flag. Do you want for me to draw it on your chest?"
Waving his leg up, Josh sent a pressed air blade arc that was 5 meters long, which passed by the Accino-family man and almost slashed him.
The guy turned his face, to the long slit that appeared on the ground. Had he been hit by that, he would have surely died or reached a state between life and death.
He looked in front of him again, Josh half closing his eyes and ready to attack him.
"I never said that. My twin brother did."
"I must have mixed you up then," Josh said. "Give me one good reason why shouldn\'t I kill you."
What Josh really wanted the guy to say is that he has a reason to stay alive. Something like, where Accino is keeping his money.
The guy, to Josh\'s surprise, lifted his hands and lowered his head.
"We didn\'t really want your flag. We, in fact, has been expecting you to come over here."
There was a silence for a brief. Although Josh didn\'t show much expression, Mikita and Marianne did.
"Hey! If you could really expect us, the marine would have done the same. They should have been able to know what we were tracking them, but they didn\'t turn to us at all." Mikita exclaimed, as she clenched her fist and dashed. She was about to end the guy\'s life with one very heavy punch.
"Please!" He yelled, his hands lifted. "It\'s not the navy. It\'s the World Government. We got a report that you are after us, and we could tell."
Mikita, who was about to end up the man\'s life with a punch that can break his face, stopped punching when a hand held her wrist.
Since Josh appeared behind her and held her hand, she stopped. Turning to him, she raised her eyebrow and said. "Hey, did I do something wrong? Why did you stop me."
Josh sighed. "There are plot holes in his story. We should gather one more piece of information."
Mikita nodded at him, lowered her fist, and kissed Josh on the cheek, before walking and standing behind him.
Josh looked at the man who almost lost his life, saying.
"Now, you said the world government warned you."
"Yes." The man nodded.
Robin, on the other hand, was half closing her eyes, scanning Josh.
Robin believed that Josh suspected that as well. There is no way that the world government would just warn someone.
"What else," Josh said, his voice getting colder with the second.
The man gulped, not wanting to talk.
"Speak. I\'m scarier than the girl behind me." Josh said, chopping down his hand. He stopped his hand next to the man\'s neck, almost taking his life.
Marianne rolled her eyes simply, but no one saw that.
Mikita, since she was wearing heels, put her head on Josh\'s shoulder and nodded, to support his state. "He is scarier than me. He makes me scream each night."
She was being honest. She screams when he hits her spot.
"Fine, I\'ll speak! They are in the castle. Assassins, waiting for you! We disobeyed the orders and wanted your bounty for ourselves." The twin yelled, saying all his has in mind.
Josh, even though felt surprised, kicked the man in the face, making him shut up since his voice was loud.
The man fell down, becoming unconscious.
Turning behind him, Josh stared at Robin, who stared at the ground.
Robin, quietly said, "I think they know about me."
"But we found about their trap," Marianne said.
Mikita thought for a brief and decided to speak. "However, what would we do. We don\'t know them, but they seem dangerous." Mikita said, clenching her fist.
Mikita and Marianne then looked at Robin.
Robin wasn\'t looking at them, but at Josh. "What do we do now."
"I think…" Josh looked at the cold white sky.
