The Black Throne of One Piece

Chapter Eighty-Three: Assassination

The deadly bullets were fired at high speed, and they had only one target, and that was Gilbert, the person who held the Chang banquet.

The timing of the striker was vicious, and he chose the time when Gilbert stayed away from CP7 and the guards and cooperated with a group of nobles alone, and it was also the time when he was most smug.

And the marksmanship is very good, every shot is aimed at Gilbert's vitals, and Gilbert's dodge route is blocked to death.

However, CP7 is worthy of being the dog leg of the Tianlong people, and the reaction speed is very fast. The moment the gunshot just appeared, the leading CP7 member wearing a red tear-stained mask immediately used shaving flash to Gilbert, and then used the iron block to defend.

Suddenly, a sound of "Ding Ding Ding ~" appeared, and the bullet hit the CP7 member without any effect, at most it could only penetrate his clothes.

At the same time, a member of CP7 wearing a pitch-black mask turned into a panther man, obviously an animal-type Devil Fruit user. The pistol hit Gilbert's male waiter in front of him, then stretched out a finger, and pierced the other's heart like lightning.

It was pulled out again, the man's fingers were covered with blood, and the attacker in front of him fell down with a bang, losing his voice.

However, the attack obviously did not end because of the gunman's death.

"Bang bang bang~"

The gunman had just been killed, and there were new gunmen shooting immediately, and there were quite a few of them. Many servants and guards who had worked in the castle for many years took out various firearms to shoot, but their target this time was different. Gilbert again, but a guest at the banquet.

Their main targets are obviously those nobles who chose to support Gilbert in the team just now.

These nobles do not have the protection of powerful guards like CP7, at most they are protected by one or two good guards.

For a while, many nobles were shot and fell in a pool of blood.

This sudden attack instantly turned the scene into chaos, and no one paid any attention to the beautiful mermaid in the huge fish tank. A large number of guests rushed to flee, wanting to leave this dangerous place.

However, the gate of the banquet hall was blocked by someone. It was Hodgson, the chief guard in charge of the castle defense, who led the blockade. He had already turned into a giant snake man holding a huge pair of swords. Many fierce guards raised butcher knives at the banquet guests who wanted to escape.

The screams suddenly sounded one after another, blood began to spread in the banquet, and there was fear at the same time.

"Hodgson, what are you doing? I treat you well on weekdays. If Gresham did you any favors, I will give you double."

Gilbert, who was protected by CP7 members and two loyal guards, saw that Hodgson, his trusted guard chief, was among the attackers. He was trembling with anger, but he still held back his anger and tried to lure Hodgson to betray him. .

Unfortunately, Hodgson was unmoved at all, and continued to wield his double knives and direct his loyal subordinates to slaughter the helpless nobles, celebrities and businessmen in front of him.

However, there are also a large number of guards loyal to Gilbert in this banquet. They are all under the two personal guards of Gilbert, Watt and Weeks. Under the orders of Watt and Weeks, they quickly joined the battle to stop Hodgson and his men.

"Hehehe~, it seems that Gresham's counterattack is really fast enough, and it is a fatal blow. The old king has been able to ascend the throne and suppress Gilbert for so many years. It really is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The person who was placed next to Gilbert actually became the chief guard of Gilbert Castle, doesn't this mean that the defense of this castle is simply a decoration for the king's army?"

Seeing this, Barr, who was watching the play with Williams hiding, sneered in his heart.

Why did he calmly choose to remain neutral when he saw Gilbert come up with all kinds of good news that would be beneficial to his victory? The reason is that he accidentally discovered that Hodgson, the chief of guard, was actually a member of the old king Gresham with his knowledge and domineering arrogance.

When Gilbert initiated the war, the old King Gresham also asked Hodgson, the undercover secret, to prepare a big gift for Gilbert.

The people who came to the banquet this time are all powerful people in the port of Vilia. They are important parts to maintain the normal operation of the port of Vilia. Many of them cannot be replaced for a while. Once they die here , the port of Vilia will definitely fall into chaos.

Now they were invited here by Gilbert, and many of them also expressed their positions at this banquet, which can be said to have given the old king a pot.

The port of Vilia is Gilbert's base camp, the main base. If the backyard of this base camp catches fire, it will have a huge impact on the front line. After all, the relatives and friends of the soldiers fighting on the front line are basically in the port of Vilia, which will inevitably cause morale. unstable.

The morale of the army is unstable, which can easily lead to the defeat of the war.

"Damn it, Watt, Weeks, go and kill the traitor Hodgson."

Of course, Gilbert was also aware of the importance of the people he invited to the banquet. Seeing that Hodgson was unmoved, he quickly ordered two capable men around him to deal with Hodgson.

Watt and Weeks, two devil fruit users of the animal department, immediately transformed into a human-beast form, a goat man and a black cat man, and then rushed towards Hodgson with weapons in hand.

"Dear gentlemen, please also help me put down the rebellion."

Gilbert knew in his heart that if Hodgson turned against him, the defense of the entire castle might not be counted on for the time being. In order to get out of the crisis quickly, he immediately said to the CP7 members around him.

It's just that Gilbert's words obviously can't order these Tianlong people's dog legs. The order they received was to protect Gilbert's safety, but they didn't have the instruction to help Gilbert fight.

But there is a saying that money can turn ghosts, and Gilbert is a master who is not short of money. Seeing that CP7 has no intention of doing anything, he immediately added: "Of course, I won't let everyone do it for nothing. Afterwards, I will give each of you 100 million Baileys as a reward."

Money touches people's hearts, and there are very few people in the world who are not interested in money.

Although CP7 is the lackey of the Tianlong people and has a lot of power, but there are many rules, and they are very strict. Usually, there are few opportunities to make money. At this time, when they heard that Gilbert gave such a generous reward, many people were moved. They all looked at the man in the red tear-stained mask headed by them.

"This is not an example."

The man in the red tear-stained mask understood the thoughts of his subordinates, and it was not easy to stop them, so he nodded.

As soon as the words fell, several members of CP7 wearing masks immediately took action, using shaved and finger guns, and quickly killed the nearby gunmen.

On the other side, Hodgson was quickly suppressed by Watt and Weeks.

"For the Drum Kingdom!"

When Hodgson saw the CP7's attack, his heart sank, and he immediately repelled Watt and Weeks with a pair of knives, and then shouted.

In the next second, many guards who accompanied him in the battle also issued this slogan.

Then, like Hodgson, they quickly took a few pills from their bodies and threw them into their mouths.

The pills are extremely effective, and they start to work as soon as they enter the stomach. The whites of the eyes of Hodgson and others who took the pills instantly turned blood red, the muscles all over their bodies swelled rapidly, and their breaths soared, and they suddenly stopped them in front of them. Tore his enemies to pieces before proceeding to slaughter nobles, socialites and businessmen.

"these are..."

Barr looked at the situation after Hodgson and other attackers took the pill, and his face suddenly became serious.

Gilbert's expression also changed. At this time, he even showed a trace of fear that hadn't been seen for a long time.
