"Ow..."
Thankfully for the girl, the sand was soft and cushioned her impact a bit. The bazooka's kickback had been a
little stronger than she'd calculated, but at least she was still in one piece. The same couldn't be said for her weapon, however, which had been reduced to a charred wreck after firing only one shot.
Aw man, I thought I'd fixed that... Looks like it's back to the drawing board...She didn't have much time to dwell on it, however, as the crew of the ship didn't seem too happy she'd wrecked their only method of transport. Why were they so angry, anyway? It's not like she'd
meant to hit it! It was just a warning shot, and she couldn't be blamed if the aiming had been a little bit off! Besides, it's not like there was no warning or anything, right? She'd put up a sign and everything! And... And...
...And was that a tsunami? She'd call it a geyser, but it wasn't coming from underground and...
Well, now wasn't really the time for semantics, since one of the crew... Did they have a fishman? She'd read about fishman karate before, but never actually seen it with her own eyes. Well, the other explanation would be some kind of Devil Fruit power, but from what she'd read water was anathema to the Devil Fruits and thus it would be completely illogical for one of them to produce a water-based power and...
Maybe she shouldn't have thought so hard about this, as the blast of water crashed towards her, sending her flying across the beach and hitting her head on a rather small, shoddily constructed sign which stated in messy handwriting that would be hard to read from a distance...
