"Please go ahead with the experiment. I'll watch from the side and make sure not to disturb you!" Izou realized he had been a bit too excited and quickly apologized.
Pryce waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing to worry about. He then pulled out a stack of explosive tags from his pocket. Izou eyes widened as he watched Pryce actions.
"Why is Pryce taking out a stack of paper?" Izou thought to himself but didn't voice it out loud.
At that moment, Pryce walked straight to the edge of the shooting range.
Just then, voices came from outside the shooting range.
"Pryce, what are you sneaking around the shooting range for?"
Pryce shrugged helplessly and stopped preparing to throw the tags. Marco walked in with a smile. Behind him were Whitebeard, Jozu, and others.
"Captain, Marco, what brings you here?" Pryce walked over and asked curiously.
"Hahaha, some crew members just told us about your whereabouts!"
"I immediately guessed you had come up with another invention!"
"See, I was right!" Whitebeard stroked his beard and laughed, then pointed at the explosive tags in Pryce hand.
"Pryce, what's that?"
"It looks a bit like a teleportation talisman, but the runes on it are different!" Marco frowned, stroking his chin as he spoke.
"This is called an explosive tags, a type of talisman, I suppose." Pryce explained seriously.
"Explosive tags?" Everyone exclaimed in unison.
Pryce nodded.
"It's a bit complicated to explain. Let's just see it in action!" Pryce turned and walked back to his previous position. Everyone watched him intently with eager eyes.
Pryce finally felt a bit unnerved by their stares.
"Honestly, I'm not entirely sure about the power of this explosive tags. Don't get your hopes up too much." Pryce said helplessly.
"Nonsense! You always say that, and it's always a surprise!" Whitebeard laughed heartily. The others chuckled in agreement.
Pryce could only turn around, silently praying that this explosive tags, which had dominated the Naruto world, would shine just as brightly in this pirate world!
Pryce took out one explosive tags, lightly tapped the rune in the center with his finger, and then threw it toward a nearby target. Everyone watched as the tags floated toward the target, their hearts filled with anticipation!
Boom!
The moment the explosive tags touched the target, a massive explosion rang out. Everyone was startled, including Pryce, who was also surprised by the explosive tags power. He hadn't expected the explosive tags to be so formidable!
Looking at the scattered remains of the target and the shallow crater beneath it, Pryce nodded in satisfaction. The explosive power of this tags was even greater than the bombs fired by cannons in this world! And the most important thing was that multiple explosive tags could be used in succession!
If this kind of damage were stacked, even Whitebeard wouldn't be able to withstand it!
Everyone was completely stunned.
"Pryce, you liar!" Marco pointed at Pryce and shouted.
"Such immense power, yet you told us not to get our hopes up!" Whitebeard chimed in from the side.
Listening to their complaints, Pryce could only wave his hand and smile helplessly.
The next moment, Izou rushed over.
"This is unbelievable!"
"Pryce, how did you do it?"
"How can such a small piece of paper contain such terrifying power?" Izou grabbed Pryce collar and asked in astonishment.
Before Pryce could respond, Whitebeard swiftly stepped forward and pulled Izou away, who was clinging tightly to Pryce.
"Don't be so frantic, you might scare Pryce!" Whitebeard said with a frown.
Reminded by his father, Izou realized he had lost his composure again.
Pryce waved his hand, indicating it was nothing to worry about.
"The principle is actually quite simple..." Pryce began to explain at length. But seeing the confused looks on everyone's faces, Pryce knew they didn't understand. Only Izou seemed to be listening with great interest.
After explaining, Pryce decided to continue experimenting.
After all, if the quality of these things is inconsistent, it won't do!
What if, while setting up a trap with explosive tags, you accidentally use a "dud"? That would be too unlucky!
But ultimately, the explosive tag is just a piece of paper, and if thrown by hand, the range is very limited! Pryce frowned and looked around. At that moment, Marco picked up a stone and walked over.
Pryce immediately understood and quickly took the stone from Marco hand. After lightly tapping the explosive tag, he carefully wrapped it around the stone! Then, with all his strength, Pryce threw the stone at the farthest target!
Boom!
Another loud explosion, and the target was blown to pieces!
"This is terrifying!"
"If used in battle, this could definitely catch the enemy off guard!" Marco said with a smile.
"Indeed, who would expect such a small piece of paper to contain such terrifying explosion!" Izou nodded in agreement.
Whitebeard rubbed his hands and stepped forward.
"Let me try it too!" Whitebeard said with a laugh. After all, this thing looks so fun to use!
Pryce handed a few explosive tags to Whitebeard, Whitebeard soon imitated the method and threw the explosive tags towards a distant target.
Intense explosions once again engulfed the target!
"This is fun!"
"So much fun!" Whitebeard laughed and threw out a few more explosive tags. The series of explosions finally caught the attention of the Whitebeard Pirates' combatants.
Immediately, a combatant cautiously entered the shooting range, only to see his father using a piece of paper to blow things up!
Their initial confusion was dispelled when they saw Pryce standing nearby. Soon, the clever ones guessed that this was another new invention by Pryce!
Marco, too, was itching to try after seeing Whitebeard actions.
He quickly asked Pryce for a few explosive tags and started playing with them. Marco quick thinking was indeed impressive.
He transformed into his phoenix form, engulfed in blue flames, and grip the explosive tag with his beak, and then fly straight toward a cluster of targets.
This time, the deafening explosion was accompanied by bursts of blue fire.
The surrounding targets were all set ablaze with the blue flames, burning fiercely! Even Pryce couldn't help but applaud Marco ingenious idea.
