Chapter 443 - Assassination Attempt

The quick movements done by Carrot had caught the man off guard with how smoothly and effectively she had used her movements and weight to pull him and herself from that locked position.

Carrot could not move her legs but she could still make use of her upper body and those movements to create enough force to be able to duck down and curl her body over the man enough to grab his waist before pulling them into her embrace.

Even if the man was locked in place as they held her legs, the body of Carrot was still moving forward into a roll and the man that was held onto would be pulled along with her even if he decided to release her legs.

After completing a couple of rolls, he did not release her from his grip and held on. "What are.. you doing?"

Just as he was about to continue to complain, there was a sudden sound that was created nearby as a long line had passed through the remains of the ship.

It caused those that were hit by whatever it was to suddenly lose their support as they crashed down.

If Carrot had not moved then it was guaranteed that she would have been in the direct path of that sharp attack that cut forward with enough force to send the attack moving forward.

She grit her teeth and pushed at the body of the man. "Get off!"

The man refused to let go and kept struggling to hold on as he thought to himself. 'Damn.. how is she this strong. Hurry up already!'

Another sudden slash came from overhead but there was no clear sign of there being anyone attacking or nearby.

It was a little puzzling that such a thing was happening but all Carrot could do in that moment was to pull the man along with her body and rolled out of the way.

A large cut spread out deep into the deck of the ship which showed that Carrot was truly in danger and had moved just in time to avoid another fatal attack.

Carrot was getting fed up with the man at her waist that was obstructing her movements so her claws extended to look very threatening and sharp. "Let go!"

Her claws dug into the shoulder of the man and increased her grip strength but it was met with some resistance. "Oh?"

She rolled her body once again to avoid another cut then a layer of black Armament Haki started to spread out onto her claw that was being met with some resistance.

It slowly started to break past the guard of the other person and sunk into their flesh so they couldn't help but scream. "Aah!"

Just as they had let out a scream and their grip had weakened a little, there was another form of interference that came from another place.

The body of the man was suddenly hit by a large force that came from all the way from the lookout of the MMA.

Val noticed the strangeness of the man and started seeing him as a major obstacle and danger to the life of Carrot so she had pointed the sniper towards their direction. "Target acquired."

As her finger pressed against the trigger and applied a little force to it, a large amount of electrical sparks were released along with a powerful magnetic charge that built up along the barrel of the sniper.

The sniper was not just an ordinary sized and shaped sniper that could be found anywhere but it was instead a custom made one using the developed Electro science and engineering from Nica and Alyssia.

The trigger had been pulled back completely once the sniper had enough time to activate then a large metal bullet was fired and passed through the end of the sniper.

Each magnetic force along the way had helped the metal bullet to gain even more power behind it as it flew out towards the target that was a long distance away.

The bullet was very fast and powerful as it flew so fast that ordinary people could not sense it or get out of the way of it.

The man under Carrot continued to moan and release some cries of pain as he clung onto her but there was suddenly something that came towards him with a great speed and without any prior warning being given. "Wha?"

The man tried to move out of the way but something seemed to pass through the skin on their arm and kept moving through without stopping.

The large force caused the man to be thrown back and his arm had a large enough hole torn through it that it was likely that the arm would not be able to be kept if it had received any kind of treatment.

If it was not for the small amount of Armament Haki that had been brought up in a split second that had been broken through and reduced the amount of force from the bullet then it was very likely that their arm would have been blown off completely.

The man was wounded and released Carrot while holding onto his wounded arm. "Aaah!"

The man started to roll around clutching their wound and their appearance had started to change all of a sudden. "Argh… hurry up! So useless. Argh!"

The voice of the man became softer and more feminine as the shape of his body started to change along with the rest of his appearance.

Carrot was free from her grip so she had more freedom of movement and suddenly ducked her body before lifting her two feet behind her to perform a backward dropkick. "Got you!"

She made contact with something hard and there was suddenly a groan that came from behind her before the noises of collisions came from further away. "Gu.. ah.. gh."

Seeing that she had been able to fend off the assassination attempt on herself, Carrot did not let down her guard and moved towards the woman quickly.
