章 33: #33 The Sniper
"Yeah, I thought he wasn't going to come out. If he hadn't, we would've had to deal with him later."
"No way we'd let him leave with our secrets!"
"But it looks like he's decided to join the selection. That shot must be his ticket in."
Responding to Blackbeard, Carlo showed no embarrassment for boasting…
After all, he'd have Observation Haki in the future, so that meant he had it now too!
If not, he'd still have to act like he did!
"Zehahaha, exactly! But Carlo, I'm impressed with his shooting skills. If he passes, he'd be a great addition!"
"Our team lacks long-range attack power. He's a good choice, with incredible marksmanship!"
Blackbeard patted Carlo's shoulder excitedly, watching the scene unfold.
"Yeah, his marksmanship is terrifying!" Carlo nodded, looking serious.
In the original pirate world, there weren't many scenes of Van Augur, so even Carlo, as a traverser, didn't know how good his marksmanship really was.
But being chosen by Blackbeard as their sniper, with reaction skills on par with the Red-Haired Pirates' Yasopp, he couldn't be bad!
Regardless of his knowledge, Van Augur's first shot had already surprised both Carlo and Blackbeard.
In the square, as the pirates were confused by Carlo's sudden announcement and the gunshot...
No one noticed that at least ten pirates on the far right had their eyes wide open, bodies stiff, and couldn't make a sound.
Each had a small bullet hole in their forehead!
Perfectly aligned, all in the same spot!
And they weren't even standing in a straight line!
They were in a curve, yet one shot hit them all in the same place.
One shot, just one shot…!
You could tell how terrifying the shooter's skills were!
'Tap… tap… tap…'
At that moment, soft footsteps caught everyone's attention.
A tall, skinny man in a cloak, with an eyepiece and a sniper rifle slung over one shoulder, appeared in the crowd, staring at them coldly!
His footsteps were soft, but he was already in front of them!
This impressed both Carlo and Blackbeard on the high platform.
Clearly, this was a skilled sniper who had honed his habits and traits to meet the essential qualities of a sniper.
And those qualities were top-notch!
Snipers are meant to be hidden, making minimal noise, especially their footsteps...
Whether for concealment or not alarming the enemy, it was crucial.
Training to the extreme was vital to support their team better!
"It's him."
"Van Augur, the Sound Shooter!"
Carlo's murmurs and the shouts of some pirates in the square overlapped!
Meanwhile, the dozen pirates Van Augur had shot fell to the ground.
People realized that the fight had already caused casualties!
Even those standing next to the dead pirates hadn't noticed until then!
"Did you do this?!"
"You bastard, I'll kill you!"
A blue-haired young man on the right side of the square was furious, veins bulging, nearly exploding with rage!
After yelling, he charged at Van Augur...
He didn't look like he wanted answers but wanted to tear Van Augur apart!
Van Augur didn't say a word, raising his sniper rifle with one hand, aiming at the blue-haired pirate.
"A mere sniper, hiding in the shadows like a coward!"
"You think you can use that broken gun on me?!"
"I'll destroy you and avenge my brother!"
The blue-haired youth sped towards Van Augur, constantly changing his position, moving veryfast.
At such close range, moving so quickly, even a regular shooter would struggle to hit him!
One of the dead pirates was his brother, explaining his rage.
The brothers, while not Devil Fruit users, were physically strong and fast, making them formidable fighters on the Grand Line!
No wonder they wanted Carlo's Devil Fruits. They could've become even stronger and made a name for themselves on the seas.
'Bang!'
Van Augur's expression remained cold, pulling the trigger when the blue-haired youth was less than thirty meters away.
To the outsiders, it seemed he didn't aim, the barrel didn't follow the youth's movements, just shooting straight.
No one thought the shot would hit.
It was too off!
Even the blue-haired pirate had a cruel smile on his face!
So close, at his speed, he was almost there!
He felt he could kill this enemy any second!
But his smile froze almost immediately…
At the same time, a cold voice reached his ears: "Who do you think you are?"
