Bang! Lina charged forward and planted a heavy foot on the chain dragging across the ground.
Clang!
The taut chain yanked the other party to a stop. The barbs inside the collar around its neck dug in, and the cobra's eyes instantly widened with pain.
"Where do you think you're going with a leash on? Calling you smart would be giving you too much credit." Lina sneered.
The snake looked sneaky, but it was also kind of dumb and cute.
The cobra turned back, its eyes fierce and unwilling. If I weren't hungry, I'd beat you to a pulp and then swallow you whole!
Whoosh!
The cobra opened its mouth, baring a pair of deadly fangs, and suddenly spat a stream of venom.
Lina curled her five fingers as if gripping the air, then hurled it forward with all his might!
"Breaking Charge Punch: Bullet!"
Bang!
The concentrated shockwave shot forward like a cannonball, smashing into the stream of venom and scattering it.
The splashes sizzled against the walls and floor, giving off smoke. The venom was clearly highly corrosive.
Wasn't this basically a copy of Magellan?
Lina grew even more interested in it. He'd talked with Nami before about what kind of pet to get someday.
She wanted a cat or a dog, saying they were intelligent and affectionate. Lina had suggested Chopper, since he was even more intelligent and affectionate.
As expected, Nami had refused...
With another punch.
Lina planted a foot firmly on the chain and began sizing up the cobra. Now that he thought about it, catching this snake and keeping it as a pet might not be a bad idea.
He pointed at the cobra, turned to her, and asked casually, "Nami, what do you think? As a pet."
"Are you crazy?!"
Veins popped on
