Revenge (1)
"Who am I? Heh, you've killed so many people, you've even forgotten me." Ren Fang looked at Corey and George and said, "I've always remembered you, I could never forget you. Because the villagers placed all their last wishes on me, asking me to take action on their behalf and finish you off. The Twin Blade Pirates."
"Hmm, judging from what you're saying, could it be that we were the ones who dealt with your village before? Which village was it?" Corey asked immediately upon hearing this.
Cold sweat beaded on his forehead, for he knew that today might very well be the day they met their demise. This woman was not only formidable, but she also had several thugs with her, and those thugs were not to be underestimated. There was no way they could defeat them and escape.
Therefore, he could only hope that they hadn't attacked Ren Fang's village, otherwise they might still have a chance to survive. If they had actually attacked and cruelly murdered the people in Ren Fang, they would be in big trouble today.
This woman came here today specifically for them; she's after revenge.
"Blue Sea Village, you must remember this village well, because the women there were all beautiful, and it was also famous for its pearls. However, because of your arrival, it was all destroyed, turned into scorched earth," Ren Fang said. "You also insulted all the women there, and then killed them all."
"Do you remember me? Corey, the Twin Blade Pirates." Ren Fang stared at Corey with an icy expression and shouted.
Upon hearing Corey, Corey broke out in a cold sweat, his heart filled with extreme fear. He vividly remembered this village; they had acquired a huge fortune there and enjoyed a lavish lifestyle.
That place left a lasting impression on him; they had been saying not long ago that they shouldn't have destroyed that village. If nothing else happened, they could go back to that village and have some fun.
"Blue Sea Village? You're a survivor from Blue Sea Village?" George was stunned upon hearing this.
"Yes, my mother hid me, allowing me to escape, but I witnessed all your evil deeds," Ren Fang said. "Although several years have passed, I can't forget it; I'm still awakened by nightmares every night. And all of this is your doing. Therefore, you must take responsibility."
"Come on! Stand up! Weren't you so tough back then? How come you've become a coward now? Show me some strength!"
Upon hearing this, Corey and George gritted their teeth and stood up. They exchanged a glance, knowing that their chances of survival were slim.
Even if they kill the woman, they still have two accomplices.
They had experienced the Little Black Cat's skills firsthand; it was definitely no less capable than their own. Therefore, whether they fought or not, the outcome was already decided. However, neither of them were cowards; those who dared to venture out into the world must have had a strong mentality.
Moreover, they've fought with the navy before, and they've held on despite being surrounded by the navy, so they won't be intimidated by a woman.
"Come on! What goes around comes around. Since we did that back then, it's understandable that you want revenge. We'll take it on." George said after a moment's thought. He gripped his twin swords tightly, ready for action.
"Alright, come on! Let's see if you have the ability to kill me." Corey nodded as well. He knew that running away was pointless, because there were still accomplices watching them from the outside, and they had no way to escape.
"Come on!" Ren Fang took out her dual pistols and began her attack.
She aimed at Corey and George and began firing. Corey immediately returned fire, preparing to suppress Ren Fang's firepower so that George could get closer and kill Ren Fang in close combat.
Ren Fang gave a soft snort and lightly stomped her foot on the ground, instantly turning the entire area into a swamp. Corey and George immediately sank into the swamp, unable to extricate themselves.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ren Fang fired continuously at Corey. Corey was caught off guard and was hit by four shots from Ren Fang. However, Ren Fang did not kill him immediately, but instead hit Corey's feet and hands.
Corey screamed and collapsed into the swamp, unable to launch another attack.
Then, Ren Fang focused all her attention on George. George's feet were now stuck in the swamp, below his knees, completely submerged. He struggled desperately, but the more he struggled, the further he sank. Helpless, he had no choice but to stop struggling.
"You ate Devil Fruit, didn't you?" George asked, looking at Ren Fang.
He thought Ren Fang had eaten Devil Fruit, because that's a special ability that's difficult for ordinary people to achieve, except for Devil Fruit User.
"I haven't eaten it, but I do have a special ability." Ren Fang smiled and walked towards the two of them step by step. When she reached them, she immediately hardened the ground, completely immobilizing them and preventing them from escaping. Unless they cut off their legs, they had no choice but to accept her punishment.
"It seems we left a problem behind back then. I really regret it. Go ahead and do it!" George sighed helplessly. He couldn't move his legs now, and it would be easy for Ren Fang to kill him. Their fate was already sealed, there was no suspense.
"Killing you would be too easy on you," Ren Fang said. "I'll make you suffer terribly, I'll let you experience that kind of pain."
Upon hearing this, George and Corey's expressions changed; they knew that Ren Fang was going to torture them.
"What are you going to do?" George asked curiously. He was eager to know how Ren Fang was going to torture them.
"I've prepared a thousand bullets for you, five hundred for each person. I'll put them all inside you," Ren Fang said. "Don't worry, I won't hit any vital organs. If I do, you'll die."
"You... you might as well just kill us. We know we were wrong, and we've confessed," George said, his face contorted with grief.
One shot used to be excruciatingly painful; now each of them has to be shot five hundred times—the pain is unbearable.
"Hehe, sorry, I won't be that kind," Ren Fang grinned and said. Her smile was sweet, with two dimples appearing and disappearing on her face, making it hard to look away. However, to George, this smile was no different from a devil's smile.
Corey's face was extremely grim. He glanced around and suddenly spotted some Marines nearby. His eyes darted around, and he shouted, "Hey, Marines, come quick! This woman is a criminal! He's a criminal!"
After Corey shouted, the navy soldiers rushed in.
They were watching the show outside and didn't come in. The reason they didn't come in was because the fight inside was very intense, and the Twin Blade Pirates had a notorious reputation; they were afraid.
Previously, when the Twin Blade Pirates arrived at Blue Sea Island, they had already received intelligence. However, they did not take action because they feared that the Twin Blade Pirates would defeat them and then brutally kill them.
Later, they received intelligence that someone was attacking the Twin Blade Pirates and had even burned their ship.
The timid yet shrewd commander of the Blue Sea Branch the navy sensed an opportunity. Therefore, he mustered his courage and led his men to the vicinity. However, they didn't get too close, because they didn't want to get involved.
They had witnessed the whole thing. Although they saw the Twin Blade Pirates defeated, they still didn't dare come in, because this woman was even more powerful; she had wiped out the entire Twin Blade Pirates. How could they dare disturb her good deed?
However, Corey's shouting put the Navy in a very difficult position. They had no choice but to come up with a solution, because they were already on the scene and had witnessed the entire process.
If they were still in the branch office, they could say they hadn't received any intelligence. However, if they said they hadn't seen anything, they would be blatantly lying.
Several hundred naval personnel parted the crowd and arrived at the dock, quickly surrounding the entire area.
Navy Commander Colonel Xu Zhongchi walked over to Ren Fang, coughed a few times, and said, "Miss, this place is under the control of our navy. Put down your weapons!"
He didn't dare to yell at Ren Fang because Ren Fang was very strong, and he was afraid of getting beaten up.
"Why didn't you act earlier?" Ren Fang retorted.
"I... we just received the intelligence," Xu Zhongchi said immediately upon hearing this. He appeared very calm, trying to make himself look authoritative. However, his authority meant nothing to Ren Fang.
"Heh, what a competent navy officer, bullying the weak and fearing the strong. It's because the navy has so many cowards like you that these ruthless navy officers act with such impunity." Ren Fang waved her hand and said, "Get lost, I'm busy and don't have time for you."
"You... you actually said that to me?" Xu Zhongchi was furious when he saw that Ren Fang didn't care about him at all.
"I told you to get out of here, didn't you hear me?" Ren Fang said coldly, looking at Xu Zhongchi.
Seeing the murderous intent in Ren Fang's eyes, Xu Zhongchi was so frightened that he took several steps back. Cold sweat beaded on his forehead, as if he had seen a terrifying demon.
"You... you..." Xu Zhongchi pointed at Ren Fang, saying "you" several times, but couldn't utter a complete sentence. He was so frightened that he was somewhat incoherent.
"If you stay here any longer, I'll make you pay," Ren Fang said coldly, glancing at Xu Zhongchi.
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhongchi froze on the spot, unsure of what to do, for neither moving nor remaining still seemed inappropriate.
If he moved, he might be killed by Ren Fang. He had just witnessed the whole thing; this woman had even defeated the Twin Blade Pirates. They couldn't beat the Twin Blade Pirates, so how could they possibly defeat this woman?
But they're from the navy. If he gets yelled at and driven away, how will he ever be able to stand here again? By then, he'll have nothing left.
"Hahaha, a dignified naval captain, actually afraid of a little woman? How laughable! You should pack your bags and go home! You can only be tough on a woman's belly; you can't do anything else." Corey suddenly burst into laughter, mocking Naval Captain Xu Zhongchi.
The reason he called Xu Zhongchi over was so that Xu Zhongchi could take them away, thus sparing them from that painful torture. Although they would be imprisoned, they could find a way to escape.
Now that Xu Zhongchi has arrived, he hasn't forcefully taken Ren Fang away. This displeases Xu Zhongchi, as it means they will be tortured to death by Ren Fang.
Therefore, in order to get Xu Zhongchi to put in a better effort, he had no choice but to use reverse psychology. The more he publicly mocked Xu Zhongchi for being useless, the more Xu Zhongchi would inevitably go all out to save face.
Just as Corey had predicted, Xu Zhongchi's face flushed red after being provoked by Corey's words. He glared at Ren Fang and shouted, "Woman, we've taken over this place, do you hear me? If you don't clean up this mess, I'll order the shooting right now!"
"You ordered the shooting, did you think...?" Ren Fang wanted to say, "Do you think I'm afraid of you?" but Fan Xin, who was quietly approaching, stopped Fanxin.
"You go about your business, I'll handle these navy personnel," Fanxin said in a low voice.
Ren Fang nodded and ignored Xu Zhongchi.
Seeing that Ren Fang was ignoring him, Xu Zhongchi felt he had lost face and was about to order the shooting. However, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He realized that something was gripping his genitals, and the other person was slowly applying force, as if they were about to crush them.
His face looked extremely pale; he had no idea what had happened.
His vital parts were naturally being held by Fanxin was in a spirit state and invisible to Xu Zhongchi. Therefore, everything Fanxin did seemed extremely bizarre, making Xu Zhongchi think he was seeing a ghost.
Fanxin not only grabbed the other man's genitals, but also pulled down his pants, leaving him only in his underwear.
Those who didn't see Fanxin's actions assumed that Colonel Xu Zhongchi had taken off his pants in public. A chorus of boos erupted, even the naval soldiers were astonished, making Xu Zhongchi feel utterly humiliated; he wished he could dig a hole and disappear.
He searched everywhere, but found nothing amiss.
His only thought right now was that he had encountered a ghost.
He turned around, pulled up his pants, and ran towards the branch office. He didn't dare stay there because he felt uncomfortable under the strange looks around him, as if he were being watched by thorns.
When the marines saw that their officers had all run away, they looked at each other in bewilderment, not knowing what to do.
However, Fanxin pointed them in the right direction and also took Fanxin against those people, making them look foolish in public. The marines looked displeased and slunk away, not daring to stay any longer. They felt this place was too eerie.
Before long, all the marines had vanished without a trace.
Corey was extremely frustrated to see the marines he had summoned leave like that. Now, there was no one to stop Ren Fang from torturing them.
Ren Fang smiled calmly after the marines left, looked at Corey and George, and said, "Without the mosquitoes bothering us, let's get down to business!"
