Chapter 310: Connections
At night, a tall man with a rough face and black hair that stood in the shape of horns, with a black shirt with yellow polka dots and an apron, stood behind the counter in the bar.
It was Bluno.
Bluno was wiping his glass and staring at one spot, clearly lost in thought.
*Ding!*
The tavern's door opened with a clinking sound, and someone stepped inside, high heels clicking.
Bluno didn't even look up, as he immediately knew who was there.
— Bluno's voice was full of energy.
— I need your help, " Kalifa said, and then fell silent.
— Lock the door.
Kalifa locked the door, then sat down on a chair.
— Where exactly are the bombs located?
— In my stomach, right here.
Looking where she was pointing, Bluno nodded.
— The door, " Bluno said, and touched a finger to Kalifa's body, and then something inexplicable happened.
A small door opened on her stomach, and not a drop of blood came out.
This was the ability of his devil fruit, and it didn't directly harm the human body.
The inside of Kalifa's stomach appeared in front of Bluno, and he immediately took a bottle of alcohol and poured its contents on his hand and on tweezers, then opened another door in her stomach.
Bluno's pupils narrowed as he saw what was inside.
— Can you get them out?" Kalifa's voice was a little strange.
— Hard, very hard...
— What is it? Kalifa looked down at her stomach, and what she saw stunned her.
In her stomach, two white gel-like substances formed tentacles that clung to the lining of her stomach as if they were the roots of a tree.
Bluno picked up the tweezers and touched the tentacles. The light touch caused the white tentacles to turn red and heat up, causing Kalifa's face to contort in pain.
— If they stick to the gastric mucosa, they heat up with a light touch and may actually explode... Who did you meet? Bluno's expression wasn't very good. This time, their enemy was very cunning.
After thinking for a while, Bluno said — " You can take a risk if you want, but the probability of success is 10% or so.
Kalifa thought about it, but finally said, " Take them out!" — she didn't want to be controlled.
— Bluno took a deep breath and slowly pushed the tweezers inside, and as soon as it touched the bomb's main body, it turned red.
Bluno stopped and waited for the explosion, but nothing happened, so Bluno cautiously continued and applied a little more strength.
One of the tentacles ended up being cut, which surprised both of them and made them panic.
— Тэккай! Bluno immediately used takkai and his muscles became hard as iron while Kalifa closed her eyes.
But there was no explosion.
— They don't seem to be as sensitive as I thought.
Bluno placed the tentacle that had been cut off from the bomb on a nearby table and looked down at Kalifa's stomach again.
*BOOM!*
The table behind them shattered, but Bluno immediately stepped in front of Kalifa.
*Ding-ding-ding...*
Shards of wood flew off Bluno's body as if they were bullets.
He was unharmed, but this explosion caused him to take a couple of steps back.
Kalifa's face was white, and her clothes were soaked with sweat.
— This... Bluno was puzzled.
The bomb wasn't supposed to go off.
— It can control bombs from a distance.
— Are you serious? Bluno asked.
— Yes.
Bluno deactivated his ability and returned Kalifa's body to normal.
— Then you can only handle them yourself.
After clearing away the shards of wood and tidying up his bar, Bluno placed a bottle of wine in front of Kalifa.
Kalifa took the bottle, opened it with her bare hands, and began to drink the wine in large gulps, and soon the reddish liquid began to trickle down her red lips and onto her chest.
— If I die, don't take revenge on him, it's not worth it." After making sure that no one was following her, she took out a Deng Deng Musi.
*Bullet-bullet-bullet...*
Dan Dan Musi were snails that made strange noises under one condition. These snails were something like a walkie-talkie. Two snails tuned to the same wavelength emitted waves of a special length, which eventually reached the desired destination.
After a while, her call was answered.
— Jabura on the line, Kalifa?" Aren't you on a mission?" A sly voice came from the snail, and her expression changed abruptly.
She was grinning now.
— It's me. I have a request.
— Yes?
— If I remember correctly, you got a good sword from the Ryo Wazamono series during a mission 6 years ago. I want it.
Kalifa's demand left her companion speechless.
— What makes you think that?
— Don't try to deny it, I saw it with my own eyes, " Kalifa said and rolled her eyes.
— Well, I already gave it to our boss.
— Oh? Really~?
— Of course you think I'm lying?
— Thirty million belli, I'll buy it.
— I said...
— I have to ask the boss about it?
— Are you going to come by yourself, or should I send someone?" When did you switch to swords? the other man's voice was very sly.
— Send it yourself. It should be in my hands by tomorrow.
— This... Jabra looked confused.
— I'll pay extra for the speed, " Kalifa said, feeling helpless.
— This has to stay between us.
— No problem, " Kalifa agreed.
Kalifa hung up and leaned against the wall. — Just wait, whether it's a technique or a sword, I'll take it all back and take your life, Byakuya!
Kalifa wasn't used to giving up so easily. She also faced much more complex problems.
She wasn't the strongest in CP9, but she knew how to wait, which eventually led her to be the only female in CP9.
