Although the Lao Si was constantly being attacked, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue his offensive against Rebecca. He was truly no match for Rebecca, but reinforcements had not yet arrived, and he was all alone, bearing pressure that he shouldn't have to bear.
The seeds still need to keep sprouting, otherwise things might get even more dangerous. All I can do now is pray. And so this Flower Field suffered a terrible disaster, constantly being hit by a guy called Lao Si. Does he really think he's a meteorite?
For some reason, Rebecca didn't immediately kill the Lao Si this time. It seemed like she was using the opportunity of killing the Lao Si to destroy those Devil's Flower, so this flying, crashing, and smoothing became the norm.
" Barnett, look, a fight has broken out over there! The gang Vic mentioned has come knocking!"
A moment later, Barnett and Frodeku finally returned to the Flower Field District. From afar, they could see Rebecca and the Lao Si's battle, and the chase between Wendy and the suit-wearing thugs was also coming to an end. So Barnett and Frodeku stopped holding back and quickly rushed towards Vic.
" Barnett, take two steps forward and deliver a high kick with your right foot."
Just as Barnett was about to reach the cabin, he heard Frodeku's voice. Although Barnett didn't quite understand why he should do this, he did as he was told, took a step forward, and put his right foot into a kicking position.
Just as Barnett was gathering his strength to kick out with his right foot, a dark shadow flew towards Barnett's right foot, and Barnett kicked the flying shadow in the process.
Barnett guessed that this was probably why Frodeku had made him do this. He was also incredibly envious of Future Sight Observation Haki, which allowed him to see into the future.
The dark figure was none other than the Lao Si, who had been sent flying by Rebecca, and then kicked back by Barnett, flying and rolling around like a ball.
The Lao Si was already cursing the Lao San and those two guys at headquarters in his heart. They were really unreliable. At their speed, they should have arrived long ago.
However, the navy's manpower has increased again, and he is still all alone. He originally came to hunt with a pack of wolves, but suddenly he has become the lonely prey.
She's still being toyed with at will by the hunter, too afraid to escape, only able to feign a desperate resistance so the hunter won't lose interest in toying with her. How pathetic! How lamentable!
" Vic, what happened? How did this place become like this?" Barnett and Frodeku had already come to Vic's side.
Barnett pointed to the broken corpses and shattered Flower Field around him and asked, completely unaware of the battle situation there, as he lacked Observation Haki.
Although Frodeku knew that a battle had taken place here and that many of the auras that had come here had disappeared, he did not know the specifics of the situation. He could not see the distant scene directly like Vic, after all, his Observation Haki only just stabilized and he could only do the simplest control of it at present. He had not yet had time to develop the other functions.
Vic gave the two a general account of what had happened since the gang came to the island, and then revealed the island's secrets.
This made the two, who were unaware of the whole truth, feel sympathy and anger towards the gangsters and the royal family. They decided that they also wanted to do something for these ordinary people and work with Vic to take down the gangster forces here!
Shortly after the two arrived at Vic's side, Wendy returned to them with two bloodstained daggers.
" Wendy, you rest for a bit. Someone will be here soon. We just need to wait."
Vic whispered to Wendy, "If we take out a few of these people's leaders, we'll have solved half the problem."
After the martial arts are over, the civil arts will come; that comes after the battle.
After hearing Vic's words, Rebecca and the others had no intention of interfering in Rebecca's battle; they simply watched from the sidelines, knowing that their own battle was about to begin.
Not long after, a black line appeared in the distance, standing out starkly against the pink sea of flowers.
Those were gang members dressed in matching black suits, Lao San by one of the gang leaders who had been chasing Barnett and Frodeku.
He initially thought that with so many men brought by the Lao Si, they would definitely be able to stop the two naval recruits from killing the others, so he didn't need to rush and could just wait for the result. Maybe he could turn back halfway there. So he just slowly walked towards the sea of flowers.
However, he quickly sensed something was wrong with his Observation Haki. The Lao Si was now fighting alone, and his underlings had been almost wiped out. That's why he sped up and rushed here, which explains why he appeared here not long after Barnett and the other man arrived.
The Lao San was also a little frustrated. Wasn't he supposed to be a new recruit in the navy? How come he's so strong? Even the Lao Si couldn't beat him.
Although the Lao Si was the weakest among them, he shouldn't be someone that a new recruit could defeat. The situation had spiraled out of control, and his Observation Haki had also sensed that Boss Ling and the Lao Jiu were heading this way!
This is a very rare occurrence. Zero rarely takes action. In the past, with the help of these few people, the troublesome tourists and pirates had little power to resist, and Boss Ling almost never needed to lift a finger.
He'd managed to get by peacefully for so many years; was he really going to stumble at the hands of these new recruits today? Reason told him it was impossible, but intuition told him it was very likely. Perhaps the saying was coming true: those who do many evil deeds will surely perish.
"It's here!" Barnett said softly as he saw the approaching black line.
Wendy and Frodeku also looked in that direction, their expressions somewhat grave. This meant they were about to go to war with the local gangs, essentially becoming enemies of a nation's guardian force! However, they weren't too worried. Vic was the anchor, calming the turbulent waves.
Rebecca stopped playing ball, looked at the approaching person in the distance, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
Completely different from her usual smile, Rebecca seemed to find the arrival of the Lao San even more amusing, allowing her to fight with greater enjoyment.
The Lao Si can't unleash her full power right now; she doesn't even have Observation Haki. She can take down any character at any time, so she can't make any progress. She also wants to Awakening Armament Haki in battle, so that she can follow Vic's steps more lightly.
When the Lao Si realized that Rebecca was ignoring him, he also sensed something was wrong. He stood up and looked in the direction everyone was looking, and he almost burst into tears!
I've been waiting for this day and night, and finally, the Lao San brother has arrived. I won't be the only one getting beaten up here anymore; this time, there will be two of us getting beaten up together. I finally feel a little better.
The Lao San is here, so what about the Boss Ling and Lao Jiu? When are they coming? It would be nice to get beaten up by all four of them together.
He had never seen Boss Ling's full-force attack, so his assessment of his strength wasn't very clear, but he was already somewhat terrified of Vic.
He had given up all hope of victory for his side; his only wish was to expose his powerful backers before being killed, which would be the best outcome he could hope for.
If someone is unlucky enough to be quickly killed without having the chance to expose their powerful backer, then that's just fate, and they can't blame anyone else!
But after thinking it over, the Lao Si felt that he was very likely to be the unlucky one! After all, he was the weakest among them.
Thinking about this, the Lao Si felt like crying again. What should he do? Should he reveal his backing right now? But it hadn't come to that yet!
The Lao Si was caught in a mental struggle, his face shifting from a bitter expression to a ferocious one, changing back and forth as if he were performing a skill that didn't exist in this world.
