They would only engage in boarding battles when artillery fire was not feasible.
It was either a brutal close - combat where blades were stained red or long - distance shooting with flintlock guns.
Who would have thought that Charlotte would simply use his fists to crush everyone as he did?
"Ugh~!"
Finally, someone couldn't hold it in and knelt on the ground, vomiting violently.
This incident triggered a chain reaction.
In an instant, more than a dozen people with weak hearts also vomited on the ground one after another.
"Ugh!"
Charlotte glanced at them and didn't look any further. After all, there was nothing worth looking at in the vomit.
Moreover, Charlotte himself felt a bit uncomfortable.
After killing so many people, the blood - red color in Charlotte's eyes gradually faded.
This brought him to his senses.
Looking at the corpses around him, Charlotte didn't regret it, but he was a bit annoyed that he had been controlled by his emotions again.
This really bothered him.
He thought the side - effect of his [Observation Haki] had disappeared.
It turned out that all the negative effects had been accumulating and were then triggered by those people in the auction house, erupting completely.
Charlotte was well aware of the side - effect of his [Observation Haki].
So when training the [three kinds of Haki], he deliberately skipped training the [Observation Haki] every time, just to reduce the influence of the surrounding emotions on himself.
He thought he was okay, but now this occurred again.
The intense fear around made Charlotte feel slightly uncomfortable.
It gave him a feeling of guilt, but he knew it was the influence of the [Observation Haki].
Charlotte subconsciously moved closer to The Red Count.
"Eee! Don't come near me! You're so dirty!"
Seeing Charlotte approaching, The Red Count quickly stood up and stepped back continuously, complaining in disgust as he retreated.
Hearing The Red Count's words, Charlotte had a headache.
So he was that annoying. Then he looked at his blood - stained body.
Well, then!
Not only The Red Count, but he himself also disliked himself a bit for getting all this blood on him again.
No way! He couldn't do this next time. He was supposed to build an arrogant and domineering persona and had practiced swordsmanship for so many years. He couldn't ruin his image.
His ideal persona was similar to that of Dracule Mihawk.
He couldn't let this happen again.
Just as Charlotte was silently vowing in his heart, while he was in a daze, Gibben and Charlie were leading their men and slowly inching towards the door.
They knew they would only meet their end if they stayed here.
"Hmm?"
Charlotte suddenly sensed that several auras were quietly moving away and immediately looked up in a certain direction.
It was the direction of Gibben and Charlie.
"Damn! We've been spotted! Run!"
Gibben, who had been keeping an eye on Charlotte, shouted as soon as he saw that Charlotte had noticed them, then he started running for his life.
He dashed straight out of the door.
This was because they were already close to the door, and they were almost at the door while slowly moving.
When they saw that Charlotte had noticed them, they no longer hid and took big strides towards the outside.
"Want to run?"
Charlotte sneered disdainfully, and then he disappeared in a flash.
He had mastered the Shave, one of the Navy Six Styles.
In an instant, he appeared behind them.
These guys were really dumb. After rushing out of the door, they still ran together, as if they were afraid Charlotte couldn't round them all up in one go.
Maybe they felt secure when huddled together!
"Kamakiri!"
Charlotte swept his foot at the crowd.
A white shockwave shot out directly from Charlotte's foot.
In an instant, it cut across the waists of the crowd.
In the blink of an eye, the crowd only felt a chill in their waists and then saw a shocking scene.
Their lower bodies were running in front of them.
But they didn't run far before they fell to the ground one by one.
"So fast!"
This was their last thought.
Splat!
After being cut in half at the waist, their internal organs spilled all over the ground.
This scene was clearly seen by the people near the auction house.
Originally, Gibben and Charlie led more than sixty people in a hurry towards the auction house, which surprised them. Some curious people quietly followed them.
But they didn't enter the auction house and only dared to look from afar outside.
Because of the guardrail, they were some distance away from the auction house, but they could still faintly hear the screams.
This immediately made them realize that something must have happened inside the auction house.
Maybe the slave had run out and they were hunting it down.
After waiting for a while, they saw a group of people running out, their faces full of panic.
Moreover, they knew these people. They were Gibben, Charlie and several others who had led the team in just now.
One was a well - known Slave Traders in Water 7, and the other was the assistant of the mayor. These were all well - known people in Water 7.
As a result, these people actually ran out one by one with panicked expressions.
Just when they were surprised at what was going on inside.
A young man suddenly appeared at the door and then swept his foot.
A shocking scene appeared.
A white shockwave flew out from the young man's foot and swept across their waists.
Those people running in a hurry were cut in half at the waist one by one.
"Ah!"
Some women who saw this scene couldn't help opening their mouths and screaming.
Charlotte took a look and then directly returned to the auction house. Conveniently, he closed the door of the auction house behind him.
But this scene was still seen by many people, including a reporter who took a picture of Charlotte's face.
This reporter saw more than sixty people suddenly rush into the auction house. Out of the idea of giving it a try no matter what, he followed them. As a result, he saw such an explosive scene.
He felt that he was going to strike it big. Sending this to the news agency would definitely surprise the editor - in - chief greatly.
At this time, he didn't recognize Charlotte's identity and only thought it was some reckless new pirates who had committed the crime.
After Charlotte re - entered the auction house.
In fact, all of Charlotte's previous actions were completed in less than three minutes.
So those people in the auction house who were about to get up and run away lay down again.
Praying that Charlotte didn't see them.
But how could Charlotte not see them?
Even if Charlotte hadn't activated Observation Haki, he could still clearly sense that those people had just made small movements.
Charlotte scoffed at this.
He came in front of Mayor Hoile, who was lying there like a dead dog.
Mayor Hoile was lying on the ground, his face contorted in pain, neither resisting nor screaming.
It seemed that he had seen and understood everything. He knew he was doomed. Even if there was a chance of survival, he'd be a useless wreck and wouldn't live for many more years.
Moreover, he was old and didn't want to struggle anymore.
When he saw Charlotte.
Mayor Hoile looked at him with a smile.
"Hahaha! You'll see! The World Government will avenge me. You'll be wanted by the World Government and the Navy! Hahaha!"
These were Mayor Hoile's last words before his death.
