HxH in One Piece World - Chapter 65
Chapter 65 [Usopp]
After banning Mord, Saul stopped going to flower street for morning exercises.
Instead, he stayed in the weapon shop all day, always supervising Maude’s training.
As for the reason, it was naturally the rudimentary sword flower that Maude played that morning.
And Saul would not question Sunny’s judgment, so it only means that after taking Dark Raven, Maude stepped into the threshold of the swordsman in only one day, and let Dark Raven see blood.
At that moment, Saul saw a precious thing called talent from Maude.
Both have the talent of learning guns and the talent of learning swords.
This shocked Saul. On the surface, he was calm, but he was panicked in his heart.
Out of selfishness, he did not want Maude to go on a “road of no return”, but to let Maude go the road of the gunman.
So he threw the Dark Crow on the shelf and became a commodity for sale.
Fortunately, Sunny is still conscientious, and secretly price Dark Crow as 2 million Baileys.
This price is so black that it is enough to persuade any potential buyer who has no vision, and there is no need to worry about Dark Crow being bought by others.
From that day on, Maude could only stay in the weapon shop honestly.
Under Saul’s supervision, during the day, Maude is doing intensive physical training almost all the time.
Especially the training on the legs, it has reached the point of crazy.
I don’t know if it was a coincidence or deliberately, Maude discovered that this sudden increase in training volume turned out to be the highest peak that he could bear after his physique rose to one star.
After several days of alternating training, Maude realized that Saul must have seen the clues, so he arranged these appropriate training content for him.
Otherwise, the training content that was too elementary before the ban would be of no use to him, who has risen to a one-star physique.
At first, after confirming this, Maude hurriedly imagined many explanations.
But what he didn’t expect was that Saul just supervised his physical training every day.
Even in the evening firearms modification teaching course and the training course to speed up the speed of loading ammunition, he has never been asked about the change of physique.
This lasted for a while, and Saul remained indifferent, but it made Maude feel uncomfortable.
To be honest, Maude hoped that Saul would directly put the problem on the table, and then he would try to prevaricate as much as possible.
Even if Saul couldn’t be persuaded, it was better than just being indifferent.
……….
time flies.
Two months passed by.
During Saul’s period, he never visited Flower Street once, and spent almost all of his time on Maude, perfectly fulfilling his duties as a master.
Under this kind of all-round training, although Maude cannot go out to harvest experience points, his physical strength has also increased to a certain extent.
However, compared to the intuitive benefits of Hunter’s Notes, such high-intensity and boring training is slower.
In fact, Maude prefers to have both, he can hunt while training.
However, he dared not sneak out at all.
For two months, if I didn’t rub Sunny’s newspaper every day, it would be truly isolated from the world.
However, under Saul’s careful teaching, Maude has mastered a lot of knowledge about firearm modification, maintenance and repair, and has been able to make preliminary modifications to the flintlock pistol.
At the same time, the speed of reloading has also been greatly improved.
According to Saul, the Navy will require soldiers to reduce the loading speed to less than ten seconds.
And the time value of ten seconds is just the most basic pass line.
In contrast, Saul’s requirement for Maude is that the musket can be loaded with ammunition within three seconds, while the rifled gun is loaded with ammunition within five seconds.
When Maude finally reached this requirement, Saul did not strictly require Maude to continue to refine the speed of reloading ammunition.
This terrible old man only took one practical action to tell Maude what it means to be “unchanged in the beginning”.
That was the superb skill of instant reloading ammunition in front of Maude.
Maude didn’t even see how Saul put the right amount of gunpowder into the barrel. He only saw Saul using a finger to perfectly press the soft lead bullet into the barrel of the rifled gun.
It’s really a dazzling effort.
The ammunition loading is complete.
This technique of reaching the realm is in the same position as Yasopp.
Perhaps this is the fastest filling speed.
Maude thought at that time, not to mention the realm of instant refill, as long as he can complete the refill within 0.5 seconds to 1 second, then he can completely disgust the enemy to death.
After the initiation of this tactic, Maude really realized the importance of the gunner’s leg training.
It is one thing to flee when the situation is bad, not a fight.
But while running and shooting the gun, it can really make melee enemies desperate.
One day, Maude modified two rifled pistols to increase their power a little.
Afterwards, Maude wanted to try to strengthen [Usopp], but found that he couldn’t start.
Knowing that his modification technology is not in place, he took [Usopp] to Saul, and wanted Saul to help enhance the overall performance of [Usopp].
Facing Maude’s request, Saul just glanced at [Ussop] and came to a conclusion.
“The style of this gun is too old. After the hand of Yasopp, there is no room for modification.”
“That’s it.”
Maude was a little disappointed.
After in-depth understanding of firearms, Maude became dissatisfied with the power and range of [Usopp].
Since there was no room for modification, the idea of changing the gun was born.
Maude knew that Saul was always generous when it came to firearms.
So as long as he speaks, it is estimated that the gun on the shelf can be picked at will.
Saul’s eyesight is so great, even if Maude did not show signs of changing the gun, he also saw Maude want to change the gun at a glance.
“Don’t even think about changing the gun. Even if this gun is old, it’s better than the guns on the shelf.”
“impossible?”
Maude is no longer a gunman now.
With his eyesight, just a few rifled lances on the shelf, in terms of power and range, can already explode [Usopp].
“You know a fart.”
Saul scolded, and immediately picked up [Usopp], and said, “For you, it will be a matter of time before you change your gun, but it’s definitely not now.”
“Why?”
Maude didn’t understand.
He has used [Usopp] several times and knows that the power and range of [Usopp] are really flawed.
“You kid, you really don’t know the blessing.”
“Do you know that this kind of old gun that has been ‘hardened’ by top gunners is something that many newcomer gunmen dream of? Not to mention that this gun is an old partner of Yasopp’ preaching so far.”
“Why do you think Kidd is so obsessed with Keanu with guns?”
“Because Keanu’s gun and Yasopp are both rare ‘old guns’, they have the ‘special touch’ that the previous gunner has gradually refined over a long period of time.”
Speaking of this, Saul took a special glance at Maude, and then said:
“When you use this gun, don’t you think it’s easy to use? Don’t you have a feeling of pointing and hitting?”
“Listen to you…”
Maude only felt a stream of torrents flowing through his limbs, and his eyes gradually appeared astonished.
No wonder it feels so comfortable when using [Usopp] for the first time.
It’s no wonder that he has never touched a musket, but it hasn’t affected his spear skills in the slightest.
Until this moment, Maude understood the value of this [Usopp].
During the change of thoughts, Maude suddenly thought of something, and suddenly he looked at Saul with bright eyes.
“master!”
“…”
Saul shook his face.
This is the first time Maude has called his master, it must be nothing good.
Immediately afterwards, Maude seriously said: “Then can I take a look at your ‘old gun’?”
Even the honorific title is used.
“My gun was broken by a guy some time ago.”
Saul said blankly.
“Who?”
Maude asked unfamiliarly.
Suddenly, Saul’s face collapsed.
