One Piece: From Picking Up Red Hair's Broken Arm

Chapter 41 Aaron! Why haven’t you come yet!
Boom, boom.

Amid the constant shaking of the ground, Xia Nuo came to a giant tree more than ten meters high.

Glancing up at the treetop, he suddenly stretched out his hands and dug his ten fingers into the trunk. His gnarled latissimus dorsi muscles suddenly bulged, and a series of muffled sounds of broken roots came from the ground.

That was not a pulling sound, but the roar of the entire layer of soil being overturned!

The giant tree weighing three or four tons rose from the ground with mud pouring down like a waterfall and was held firmly in his hands.

Then he turned his head and looked at the top of the mountain opposite.

It is about three or four hundred meters away from my current position.

After taking a slight aim, Xia Nuo said nothing, gathered all his strength, and threw the giant tree on his shoulder out.

call out--!
The giant tree shot towards the opposite hill like a javelin, and Xia Nuo raised his heel, gathered his strength a little, and stepped down suddenly.

"shave!"

His figure flashed and blurred, and the next moment, he suddenly appeared on top of the giant tree. The trunk instantly sank a lot, and the speed slowed down a little.

But it still maintained its original momentum and flew towards the top of the mountain.

The north wind was howling in his face, and trees and streams were rushing past under his feet. Xia Nuo narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the hilltop he was about to reach.

Like the hill just now, both mountains had already been contracted and became his exclusive training grounds.

However, compared to the devastated mountain just now, this mountain is much better. Only the top of the mountain has been completely flattened, leaving a huge open-air platform.

At the edge of the terrace, Manba, Shouhou and four others were already waiting there. When they saw the giant tree flying towards them from the sky, they hurriedly retreated to a further position.

Rumble!
A huge tree fell in the middle of the terrace. Xia Nuo jumped down, stepped firmly on the ground, hooked the tree trunk with one foot, turned around and kicked it casually, and the trunk immediately rolled down the mountainside.

goo-dong-

Even though they had become accustomed to the various visual impacts brought by Xia Nuo in the past few months, after seeing this scene, Man Ba ​​and others still subconsciously swallowed their saliva.

"Have you brought your guns?"

Shanuo asked casually.

"I've brought them all, boss." Manba immediately took out a flintlock rifle from behind his back, and the other three did the same.

"As I said yesterday, everyone, aim at my head and shoot quickly."

Xia Nuo just finished speaking when he remembered something and glanced at Shou Hou, "You don't have to, just aim at my feet."

"Uh." The skinny monkey blushed. "Boss, my shooting skills have improved a lot. I think aiming at your knee is about right."

"……what ever."

Xia Nuo shook his head and stood in the middle of the terrace with his hands behind his back facing the wind.

The other four men took their positions in the four corners of east, south, west and north, then closed the distance, raised their guns and aimed at Shanuo's head.

"shooting!"

Manba waved his hand and gave the order.

boom! boom! boom!
The not-so-dense sound of bullets broke the silence in the mountains. Four orange-red gun flames were spit out in turn. After one round was finished, the gun was quickly reloaded and the next round was fired immediately.

Ding! Ding! Xia Nuo did not move, letting the bullet hit his head.

No matter from which angle the shot came, it would be instantly bounced away, making a crisp sound like the collision of metal and stone.

Even the fleshiest surface of the cheek, when it collided with the bullet, was just like a stone falling into a lake, causing slight ripples before quickly returning to its original state.

This is the effect brought by the mastery of "Copper Head". Even if he does not use iron blocks to accelerate blood flow, he can still completely ignore the impact of bullets.

Whoosh-!
A bullet came from the front and hit him right in the eye.

"not good!"

Manba noticed this scene, his face showing panic, and he quickly reached out to stop the others, "Hey, stop shooting! Boss, how are you, are you okay?"

The gunfire suddenly stopped, and everyone could see clearly that the bullet did not bounce off immediately, but instead stayed in front of the eyeball strangely as if it was stuck in asphalt.

"It's okay, don't worry."

Xia Nuo spoke calmly, and suddenly controlled his eyeballs to roll upwards, and the bullet was lodged in his upper eyelid.

Everyone only heard a teeth-grinding crunching sound, and the next moment, the bullet that was stuck behind the eyelid was ground into countless fine lead powders, which slowly slid down the bridge of Xia Nuo's nose.

"..."

There was silence all around.

"It seems to be working well."

Xia Nuo nodded in satisfaction and smiled at the stunned Manba and others around him, "Okay, that's enough. Let's stop here for today. Go and do your own things."

"Yes, boss."

It took Manba and the others a long time to come back to their senses. They all took their leave and looked back every few steps as they left the open-air platform. It was obvious that they could not hide the shock in their hearts.

Shanuo was not surprised by this.

The description of "Bronze Head" clearly states that after mastering it, all parts of his body above the neck will be enhanced, naturally including the eyeballs, nasal cavity and other seemingly fragile organs or tissues.

Even his tongue could remain soft or become as tough as steel, and when extended it would be like a dagger that could easily pierce someone's chest.

Come to the southernmost part of the open-air platform.

Xia Nuo looked into the distance and from here he could just see the only port pier in Kekoyasi Village.

The pier was empty, with only a few inconspicuous small fishing boats docked there.

"Along..."

Xia Nuo murmured softly, "It's spring and flowers are blooming, when will you come?"

During these five months, he only slept four hours a day, and the rest of his time was almost entirely devoted to the ascetic practice in hell. He achieved minor success in shaving four months ago, major success two months ago, and then the iron block, and the copper head soon followed suit!

The body, which has been tempered through thousands of trials and tribulations, gradually becomes extremely strong, far beyond what it was before, and the overall strength increases rapidly and dramatically!
To deal with the Arlong Pirates, he already has great confidence and courage. Even from his muscles to his beating heart, he is eager to fight and tear apart the powerful enemy!

But alas, there are twelve months in a year.

It's only the beginning of March now. The probability of expecting Aaron to reach Kokoa West Village in the first two months is too low after all.

"I hope you don't come too late."

Xia Nuo licked the corners of his chapped lips and muttered to himself, "If the strength can't keep up with my version, I'll be very disappointed..."

A strong wind suddenly blew by, drowning out his voice.

Just like human emotions, whether it is excitement and anticipation or repeated disappointment, it can never withstand the ruthless passage of time.

It's April in the blink of an eye.

The six secret manuals appeared again in the trading market. Xia Nuo bought them, opened the "Moon Step" and "Finger Gun" from the blind box, and began to practice.

May.

The Arlong Pirates are still nowhere to be seen, and the strongest mountain on the island has finally collapsed completely.

Xia Nuo spent several more days leveling the area with his fists and feet. From then on, this place became the best place for villagers to gather, celebrate and hold ceremonies.

June.

"Moon Step" and "Finger Gun" were successively perfected.

Xia Nuo contracted another mountain. In the process of practicing finger-pointing guns, he beat the area above the mountainside into a sieve. When the morning light shone, spots of light and shadow fell on the ground, which was very beautiful.

However, when his back stood at the edge of the mountain, staring at the dock every day like an empty-nest elderly person.

Looking from far below, it looks a bit lonely.

July.

Nami and Nojiko had their birthdays one after another. Shanuo prepared a huge cake and called all the members of Manba's group to celebrate together.

However, when pushing the cake cart, he didn't control the force well and twisted the steel frame into a pretzel. The cake lost balance and fell to the ground, causing Nami to cry loudly.

August.

The "Flesh and Blood Furnace Method" finally appeared in the trading market again, this time it was the third chapter, and its name was "Iron Bones".

The way of practicing is surprisingly similar to that of a piece of iron.

So Manba and others had another task, which was to carry a mace more than one meter high every day and hammer Xano's bone joints desperately.

It’s just that before, two people took turns, but now six people work at the same time.

September.

Xia Nuo's height has grown to 1.93 meters and his weight has reached 140 kilograms.

The black tights he was wearing, as the weight increased, broke through the ceiling again and again, reaching a terrifying 2.1 tons.

One night.

Nami got up drowsily to pee. Passing by Shanuo's room, she vaguely heard Shanuo mumbling in his sleep:

"Come on, Aaron, come on, Aaron..."

"Why, why haven't you come yet..."

Who is Aaron?

Are there any girls with this name?
Nami became alert and planned to go to the villagers to inquire early tomorrow morning.

Unfortunately, children have almost no memory when they wake up at night. When they wake up and brush their teeth the next day, they have already forgotten everything that happened last night.

October.

By the middle of the month, Xia Nuo's "iron bones" had reached perfection.

The orange grove has also entered the harvest season. The workshop has been built long ago, and canned oranges and orange jam have begun to be put into production. Bellemere is extremely excited and is busy from morning to night every day.

……

And at the same time.

A village or town somewhere in the nearby sea area.

As people watched in horror, a group of tall fishmen laughed wildly and left with their bags bulging with money.

"It seems like all the guys on this island are cowards, chummie~"

The kissing merman twisted his neck, still unsatisfied. "There wasn't even a single resistance. The last island was more interesting. I wanted to turn this island into ruins too."

"Humans are weak and ignorant, skinny and cowardly. They are truly an inherently inferior and despicable race."

The leading purple fishman sneered, "What's the name of the next island?"

"Hmm, let me see, it seems to be called Kokoyasi Village."

The Six Blades Swordsman drunkenly put down his wine gourd and unfolded the sea chart to take a look. "It's not a big village. It should be the easiest one to conquer."

"is it?"

The purple fishman turned his head, and under his shark-saw-like nose, he grinned with fangs showing.

"Hahahahaha! That's really boring. I just wonder if the people there are rich enough to make a lot of money out of them..."

The second update is 3,000 words. It took a lot of effort to write, so it’s a little late. Sorry. By the way, I’m asking for votes for next month.
