"You are truly worthy of being the champion driver of the barrier-free racing competition. He is the best driver in the normal racing competition~" Saab smiled and greeted Ciri, who qualified first in the group stage.
Yes, Ciri is now competing on behalf of the Revolutionary Army, or she is already considered a member of the Revolutionary Army. The World Government does not accept the reciprocal agreement reached between her and Sabo. After all, according to the prize distribution method discussed by the big shots before the game, Xili, who had locked in the final spot of the turtle racing competition, had already earned a military expenditure for the revolutionary army. This crime was enough to be punished several times.
By the way, Ciri should theoretically be classified as a "miscellaneous pirate". She had been a pirate for a period of time involuntarily, and only used her abilities to run away after her body recovered. Unfortunately, there is no "miscellaneous pirate camp" in the list of contestants on the Grand Desolo. The Bucky Pirates, which can be called a concentration camp for miscellaneous pirates, sensibly sit on the sidelines.
Ciri, who won the victory neatly, was not in a good mood. She rolled her eyes and said: "Are you sure this is not Bello-Betty's credit? The muscle turtles affected by the ability of the Inspiration Fruit have a higher level of effort. All I need to do is not make mistakes. A low-level mistake did not give other drivers a chance to catch up."
Her thoughts are very similar to Feidon's. She doesn't care about anything. She just wants to join in the fun. What she wants to experience is a passionate competition similar to the one she competed with Feidon for first place, rather than starting from the beginning. A boring game that declares garbage time.
"Haha~ Although I'm just a layman when it comes to driving, there are some things that even a layman can see." In order to appease the tool man, Saab stated the facts in a flattering tone, "Miss Shiri's line when cornering is reasonable. The amount of deceleration when entering the corner is minimal, and the ability to maintain a high speed when exiting the corner is not at the same level as other drivers’ technical skills.”
As expected, Xili felt much better after hearing this: "After all, our driving experience is very different."
The turtle car is a unique means of transportation on the Grand Desolo, and similar things cannot be found elsewhere. The driving experience of other drivers is calculated in "days". As a centenarian, she has already become a skilled driver in other worlds. Although she cannot learn how to run in ditches, she at least has the ability to escape the pursuit of wild hunters in a supercar.
Naturally, Sabo could not understand the true meaning of this sentence, and continued to find reasons to appease: "Besides, the original competition rules set by Lord Feiton implied that we were allowed to use tricks that would not seriously affect the enjoyment of the competition. Miss Shiri, you I just didn’t realize that I suffered a big loss, and the ability to encourage fruits can only make up for the disadvantage.”
What are "tricks that seriously affect the enjoyment of the game"?
The people with the ability to carry the Sparkling Fruit fly around the track with their cars, the people with the ability to use the Gate Fruit open a space door leading to the end, the people with the ability to use the Rubber Fruit launch their cars like cannonballs, the people with the ability to use the Surgery Fruit swap places with their opponents, etc. That’s it, even though there is no explicit prohibition in the rules, once you do this, you will definitely be directly disqualified.
"Did I suffer a big loss?" Xili questioned.
"Historical Haki is the ability to capture information about things other than sight." Sabo looked at Ciri with regret, but he couldn't find a driver with both driving skills and Haki, "The rumored member of the Big Mom Pirates" The driver, Katakuri, has developed the Haki of Seeing and Hearing to the point where he can peek into the future, and he can make correct decisions based on this."
"Peering into the future?!" Xili showed an expectant expression. "If he foresees a future where I lead from the start to the end, he will definitely give me a stumbling block at the start. Interesting...!"
Sabo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Xili is not only the ace of the Turtle Racing Competition, but also one of the main players in Gwent. She must take good care of her mental state: "Miss Xili, please don't be careless during the finals. I Let’s first investigate what other tricks other players are using secretly.”
"Oh~ I'll just find a place to take a rest. The finals are in the afternoon anyway." Xili hadn't left for long when a burst of cheers suddenly came from her. When she looked up, she saw that her image appeared on the big screen, and the audience They were cheering and applauding her performance just now.
Most of them are pirates, but navy can also be seen.
"...Relying on absolute power to force the navy and pirates, who are mortal enemies of each other, to sit together and cheer. This is something that only a true dimensional traveler can do. How come I am so miserable?" Ciri smiled gloomily, and then Once upon a time, I had a desire to master the power in my blood.

"……Well!"
"Brother, are you okay?"
Douglas Barrett was in trouble. Four close wounds from his left shoulder to his right waist were bleeding profusely, forming a pool of blood under him.
Feiton said with a caring smile, but his feet had not yet moved away from Barrett's head, and his murderous intent showed no signs of abating.
"Life is so beautiful, why are you looking for death?" Feiton asked with a smile, "Well, you are looking for death, so why did you suddenly attack me?"
Barrett exerted force with both hands, trying to get rid of Feiton's suppression, but found that his body was turned halfway, but his head did not move at all, which only increased the burden on his neck. Then he had to answer Feiton's question: "Because you are the strongest... ...If I want to become the strongest, I must defeat you first!"
"Okay, it's the most classic lunatic again." Feiton let go of his feet and took a few steps back, "Are you a Devil Fruit user? You just used the weapon-colored Haki to fully cover it. I'll give you a fruit to use. The opportunity of ability will make you die with relief."
Barrett got up. The amount of bleeding from the wound had been greatly reduced. It must be said that his physical strength and recovery ability, which had been tempered in Impel Down City, were exaggerated: "It's useless. I am a Fusion Fruit ability user...in front of you, There’s no point in becoming huge and sacrificing flexibility for destructive power.”
"Damn it, there is such a trivial ability in the world?" Feiton took a few steps back.
"?" Barrett felt that his ability was of the most masculine and strong kind, and had nothing to do with the word obscene.
"In this case, I can consider letting you live, maybe something fun will happen~" Feiton snickered, turned around, and gestured to the surrounding crowd, scaring them away.
"Something fun?" Barrett was convinced that Feiton's murderous intention just now was genuine and not something to scare people. He couldn't understand why the change came so suddenly.
"According to what you just said, you can only merge with inorganic things at the moment, right? Are you turning into a steel giant?" Feiton half-closed his eyelids and said quietly, "I heard that Devil Fruit has a saying of 'awakening', which can achieve higher levels. If a first-level ability can be combined with a living person, it would be another matter~"
"...!" Barrett was about to say that his Fusion Fruit had awakened, but he suddenly froze.
Have you really awakened?
The range has become larger and the number of combined objects has increased. Isn't this simply an increase in ability strength? There is no so-called 'higher level ability'.
Could it be that I have always misunderstood?
Feiton turned around and said to himself as he left: "Oh~ I heard that Blackbeard's Darkness Fruit has the ability to attract other people with abilities. It's really scary. Fortunately, I'm not a person with abilities~"
"!!!"
