Chapter 147: Self-Defense

I saw Thorop swinging over, and the little octopus shoes under his feet were stuck to the bottom of the Golden Melly ship.

Thorop sighed deeply. He did this. Of course, Thorop was also scared. After stabilizing his mood, Thorop quickly took himself out of his backpack and landed on the empty island.

Using some useless gadgets, he took out all the wind shells that he had obtained from the angel, and attached them to the bottom of the boat one by one.

These wind shells did not disappoint Thorop. They soon spewed out strong winds from the mouth of the shells. The potential energy of the Golden Melly's descent plus the momentum caused by its own gravity, in a very short time, It was offset by the upward reaction force of the wind shell.

Under the interaction, Golden Melly soon reached the balance of the two forces, and Golden Melly began to descend at an extremely slow and safe speed.

Thorop, who was in a desperate situation, did not disappoint. Everyone sighed from the thrill just now and finally recovered. Just as Thorop was asking everyone for credit.

The octopus that provided buoyancy for the Golden Melly was shrinking sharply again, and soon became normal size. In this way, the balance of two forces that was finally achieved was quickly broken again.

Thorop, who was still hanging on the rope at this time, was rescued by Luffy's extended arm. However, the speed of the Golden Merrie's descent was too fast, and no one had any chance to make amends now.

So, after a near miss, the Golden Melly hit the sea heavily. Fortunately, no one was injured.

Just as everyone was celebrating for escaping the catastrophe, suddenly, several searchlights shone over them before they could react.

The sound of compact footsteps and the sound of sirens rang out, and at the same time more and more searchlights came over. For a time, the entire sea surface was illuminated by dozens of searchlights, as if it were daytime.

Luffy said in confusion:

"Where is this place? It's so scary."

When the navy's song rang out all around and Rey saw the rows of gun barrels on the reef bunker, Rey said in disbelief:

"Friends, if I guessed correctly, this should be a naval base. It has been driven to an incredible place. What kind of weird luck do we have?"

The navy moved very quickly. All the cannons on the reef and a large number of naval members aimed their guns at the Straw Dog Pirate Ship under the command of their respective commanders.

Luffy was also frightened by such a big scene, so he said to everyone, "There is still a chance, let's escape through the secret passage of the Golden Merli."

At this time, everyone was about to run away, but Rey stopped them in time and said:

"Do you want all the gold we have worked so hard for to be taken away by the Navy?"

When everyone heard this, they immediately refused to leave. Nami said:

"Hey, there is nothing we can do about it. With so many military thermal weapons aimed at us, there is no chance for us to resist."

"Haha, have you forgotten how I, the deputy captain, challenged Enelu and defeated the arrogant Enelu in a few rounds?"

After hearing Rey's explanation, everyone felt much more relaxed now, and they were ready to watch Rey's next battle.

"Deputy Captain Rey, you must be careful and don't let them damage our Golden Merli."

Rey nodded and summoned the Thunder Dragon. Without any hesitation, Rey stood directly on the Thunder Dragon's back and ordered the Thunder Dragon to take him into the air.

This is not because Rey is trying to be brave, but just now, Rey's system suddenly issued another mission. The specific dialogue is as follows:

"Ding, it's been detected that the host is being besieged by the navy. Please post a mission and ask the host to make a choice and complete it."

"Task 1: Continue to follow the original plot, and the host will increase all personal attributes by 30 points."

"Task 2: The host takes the initiative to launch an attack on the navy and takes the Golden Melly away from the navy's pursuit. Upon completion, the host will receive 200 potential points."

When Rey heard this, it was a good thing. Isn't this just giving him experience points? With Rey's current strength, there is really no need to be afraid of these navy, and there is no guilt in fighting with this group of navy.

Because Rey thought that he was still on the navy's bounty list. Although the bounty was not high, he was still a target listed by the navy as an enemy, so there was no need to be soft-hearted to the navy.

So after a short period of deliberation, Rey chose Mission 2 without hesitation, although he didn't know whether Rey wanted to take revenge on the navy or for a generous reward.

Rey had already decided that when he got potential points again, he decided to use these potential points to improve the strength of the crew. This time the system generously rewarded 200 potential points, which was enough for Rey to improve the strength of Nami and the others.

So, after Rey convinced the crew that there was no need to escape, Rey started performing on her own.

I saw Rey imitating Eniro, his whole body emitting electric light, which is to emit thunder and lightning from his body, and then convert the thunder and lightning into light, or high heat to resist all physical attack methods.

But Rey's lightning shield is not just for protecting himself like Eniro's. Rey erupts with strong thunder and lightning, and the range of the thunder and lightning quickly becomes larger, accompanied by dazzling light energy and heat energy.

With the use of Rey's powerful thunder fruit, the thunder and lightning burst out in a large scene that directly exceeded the brightness of dozens of navy searchlights.

This scene was unbearable to the navy, which was still entering a state of alert one after another. They had never seen such a scene.

He usually bullies others and creates a big battle to bully others. This is the first time he has been confronted by others like this. Even the navy captain who was kicked out was confused at this moment.

Rey would not give the navy a chance to attack the Golden Mellie, so Rey's lightning shield was made quickly and took shape in a very short time.

Rey was secretly glad. Fortunately, the navy did not attack the Golden Melly, otherwise he would be in trouble. He could become elemental and not afraid of the navy's attack at all.

But his own crew members couldn't do it. For their safety, and to fulfill his obligations as the deputy leader of the Golden Melly and Straw Dog Pirates, Rey used all his strength to complete the condensation of the lightning shield.

After ensuring that the Golden Merry could block several attacks from the navy, Rey relaxed and said to Nami and others:

"This is the protective cover I made of lightning. You must not touch this cover, otherwise the strong voltage will burn you to a crisp in just one second."

After hearing this, the crew members on the deck remembered Rey's words firmly.

At this time, Luffy said:

"Rey, I'm not afraid of your thunder and lightning, let alone the navy's cannons and bullets. Do you want me to help you teach these navy a lesson? I'm a professional pirate."
