Weapon: Autocannon!
Rat-tat-tat-tat!
Searing tongues of fire instantly erupted from the barrels.
In an instant, with a rate of fire reaching thousands of rounds per second, 30mm ammunition turned into a terrifying tal storm that swept outward.
Viewed from a distance.
It looked as if a brilliant chain of teors had appeared over the sea.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!!
The tal storm, traveling at three tis the speed of sound, slamd into the foremost pirate ship in the blink of an eye.
There was no doubt about the outco.
The tal storm tore through it from bow to stern, before sweeping horizontally to quickly shred the remaining pirate ships to pieces.
Flas and thick smoke billowed upward.
As the pirate fleet sank, the high-speed rotating barrels finally ca to a slow halt.
"Hmph!" Baby 5 let out a dissatisfied snort, then restored her arms and turned to run back toward the cabin.
"Truly terrifying firepower. Even I wouldn't want to face that head-on," Manlong remarked from a spot on the deck. He had intended to step in but stopped after Baby 5 intervened.
It wasn't just him; Baby 5 had also been making rapid progress with the Captain's help.
"That's insane! Big Sis Baby 5 is way too fierce."
"Those pirates were unlucky. Who knows how they managed to piss her off?"
"It's terrifying. What kind of weapon did the Boss Lady just manifest? How can it be that powerful? That's not a gun; those are basically high-speed bombardnt shells!"
"..."
If even Manlong was impressed by the firepower Baby 5 had just displayed, the rest of the Hunting Team was even more so.
After standing there dumbfounded, everyone imdiately broke into a lively and amazed discussion.
This included Chopper, who had just recently joined.
He had been nervously hiding by the infirmary window, peeking outside during the shelling, only to be instantly dazzled by Baby 5's powerful performance.
"Wow, that's incredible!"
"Yeah, yeah, that firepower was absolutely staggering."
"Huh? When did you guys get here?"
Chopper quickly turned around to find that, at so point, the mbers of the Isshi-20 had also gathered in the infirmary.
"Doesn't matter, doesn't matter. What's important is that the stronger the Hunting Team is, the safer we are."
"Exactly. We doctors can't be compared to those people out there. If we run into danger, we'd probably lose our lives in an instant."
"Who said that? I'm pretty strong too!"
Chopper expressed his dissatisfaction with the doctors' remarks.
Although he hadn't beco a pirate, he had been training since he was a child.
If it really ca to a fight... well, as long as the enemy wasn't too terrifying, he could still step up as a brave warrior.
...
"Captain, I'm back!"
At the entrance of the private training room, Baby 5 ca running in.
Closing the door behind her, she skillfully shed her outer clothing to reveal a light, form-fitting training outfit as she ran happily toward Zane, who was standing by the window.
"You did well just now!"
Turning to face Baby 5 and seeing her still full of energy, Zane couldn't help but smile and pinch her soft, elastic cheek.
The training on Ancient Jaya Island hadn't gone to waste.
While her Haki was still lacking, her physical stamina had undoubtedly seen a massive improvent.
Otherwise, with the intensity of the autocannon barrage she just unleashed, the old Baby 5 would likely be gasping for breath by now.
"Oh, it's all thanks to the weapon blueprints you provided, Captain," Baby 5 said, not taking all the credit but instead looking at Zane with pure admiration.
"That is also the result of your hard work in realizing your abilities," Zane replied with a smile.
The Arms-Arms Fruit allowed the user to transform into various weapons.
But it wasn't enough to just imagine them; it required a certain level of technical understanding.
For instance, the structural blueprints of the weapons.
The Pirate World had many 'black tech' weapons, but in terms of conventional weaponry, the Hunter World clearly had the upper hand.
Naturally, Zane wouldn't let that go to waste.
While on Ancient Jaya Island, besides supervising Baby 5's physical conditioning and Haki training, he had never neglected the developnt of her Devil Fruit powers.
With his current strength, it had been easy to obtain a vast number of high-tech weapon blueprints from a certain country in the Hunter World.
The autocannon was one of them.
It was also one of the fruits of Baby 5's current progress with her ability.
"Then, can the Captain give a reward?"
Having rushed back so eagerly, Baby 5 finally revealed her true intentions, looking at Zane with anticipation.
"I just can't say no to you!"
With his beautiful maid so expectant, Zane wasn't about to spoil the mood.
He tilted her chin up and leaned down to kiss her.
Baby 5 let out a soft moan, but she wasn't satisfied with just that, jumping up to wrap her legs around Zane's waist.
Passion quickly ignited.
Soon, another form of 'training' began within the room.
No one knew how much ti had passed.
Zane carried the now-limp beautiful maid into the bathroom attached to the training room.
Rinsing off the sweat, they lay back in the tub.
While Zane instinctively massaged her, he turned his thoughts to recent events.
News of him being a Three-Eye had indeed spread, drawing in many people.
Just like the increasing number of pirate attacks lately.
The cause of this anomaly was his identity as a mber of the Three-Eye Tribe.
He no longer hid his third eye.
Even if Zane didn't intentionally expose it, people were bound to see it during resupply stops or other occasions.
And given the value of the Three-Eye Tribe, it was inevitable that the news would travel.
Even though the New Riding the Wind and Waves was a formidable deterrent, there was never a shortage of desperate outlaws or inexplicably overconfident fools when faced with imnse profit.
'I wonder if I can hook any big fish next.'
Zane felt a sense of anticipation.
He was actually quite pleased with the increasing number of pirate attacks.
He could naturally treat those who chose to be his enemies as prey without any rcy.
The stronger the people who ca, the greater his harvest would be.
"Huh?! Marines?"
Suddenly, a crimson light flashed in Zane's eyes as his Observation Haki keenly picked up on the situation.
In his perception, a Marine fleet was sailing toward him from a great distance.
And...
"What a pack of loyal dogs," Zane said, his eyes turning cold.
With the boost from electromagnetic waves, his Observation Haki was not only wide-reaching but also powerful enough to overhear conversations within its range.
Now.
He not only sensed the distant Marine fleet but also clearly heard the words of certain people on those ships.
...
"A bunch of useless trash. They couldn't even manage to delay him. Pirates really are just good-for-nothing garbage."
A fleet consisting of one flagship and three escort vessels sailed at full speed across the sea.
On the flagship—a top-tier warship—a man nad Spindell, draped in a Justice coat, cursed furiously as he watched a Vivre Card turn to ash in his hand.
Spindell was a middle-aged man with a neatly trimd mustache and a ponytail.
In addition, he was the commander of the Marine G-7 Branch, holding the rank of Vice Admiral.
Needless to say, the Vice Admiral's mood was currently abysmal.
