In the end, of course nothing happened.
This was the first time Eric had ever seen someone fall into a blissful coma due to a kiss.
"Sister!?" The second sister, Sanda Sonia, and the third sister, Marigold, looked at Hancock in Eric's arms in surprise.
In a coma, Hancock's face was flushed, and his whole body exuded mysterious pink hearts to the outside world.
Eric said with embarrassment: "Hancock... passed out for some reason..."
"..." The two sisters roughly inspected Hancock's body and found that their sister had no external injuries. They initially concluded that Hancock had not been attacked. His clothes were intact and there was no other problem except that his face was very red.
"Sir Eric, thank you for taking care of my sister." Sandasonia stuck out her slender tongue and said: "However, it is not convenient for my sister to be in this state..."
"Sir Eric...keep kissing me..." Hancock, who was in a coma, raised a hand, his weak palm stretched out in the direction of Eric with great accuracy, and said something unclear in his mouth. if.
"..." Eric's whole body froze in place, and Hancock's two sisters were looking back and forth between them with intriguing eyes.
"Ahem" Eric cleared his throat and said calmly: "Since Hancock is not feeling well, I will go find some medicine for her."
"Okay, okay." The two huge sisters nodded mechanically.
"Bili"
With a burst of electric sound, Eric flashed back to the Forbidden City. Marigold carefully lifted Hancock and carried him back to Hancock's dormitory.
'It's enough to die alone...' Eric thought silently in his heart. Hancock didn't care what other people thought of her anyway, but Eric still wanted to have face.
In the hall where the Dawn Pirates usually gather, Nangong Nayue slumped on the sofa and asked, "It's so late, where have you been?"
"Walking around outside." Eric replied casually: "So Yue-chan, how is your injury?"
Nangong said at the beginning of the month: "It's not a big problem."
"What's wrong with her?" Eric asked the person next to him curiously. Normally, regardless of whether he could hit Eric or not, Nangong would use the black lace fan to point at Eric from a distance that month. Come on, please.
"Oh..." Mijiu suppressed a smile and explained: "Because Nangong Nayue was turned into stone by Hancock's capture arrow, but Nayue's stone statue showed an expression like a nymphomaniac and was photographed. According to……"
"Hey...that's it." Kuang San handed over a photo. It was the stone statue of Nangong Nayue with love eyes shining out. The most important thing is that Nangong Nayue maintained a lolita appearance.
"Hahaha..." Eric laughed and said, "This photo was taken well."
"That little girl..." Nangong Nayue gritted her teeth viciously: "When I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely tie her up with chains..."
"Oh, Yue-chan is so cute when she's angry!" Miku immediately swooped over.
"Whoosh"
Nangong Nayue's space magic was not a decoration. He immediately used displacement to avoid Mijiu's attack. Mijiu's face suddenly crashed into the soft sofa that Nangong Nayue had just leaned against.
Miku, who was sitting like a duck, said coquettishly: "Well Yue-chan, just let me hug you~!"
"Hmph!" Nangong Nayue crossed her shoulders and said coldly: "Then you will push even further..."
"Wendy, Nangong won't be affected by petrification that month, right?"
"Well, Sister Hancock has already lifted it herself. Sister Yue just spent a lot of energy and didn't suffer any injuries."
"Yes." Eric nodded, turned to Nakahara Chuuya and warned: "Don't be too forced in your battle with Krululu."
"Don't worry, boss." Zhongyuan Zhongya responded with a confident expression: "I will not lose to the newcomers easily."
"Hmph." Krulru crossed his legs and glanced at Nakahara Chuuya lightly.
"Well... just don't kill anyone." Eric glanced at Hara Chuuya's attributes:
[Physique: Seven Stars]
[Physical Skills: Seven and a Half Stars]
[Armed Color Dominance: Seven Stars]
[Seeing and hearing domineering: six and a half stars]
[Gravity Fruit: Seven and a Half Stars]
[Comprehensive strength: seven and a half stars]
Krulru's three types of Haki have been slightly improved, namely Armed Haki with seven stars; Wisdom Haki with six stars; Overlord Haki with six stars. His physique, physical skills and Devil Fruit remain unchanged.
Referring to the data on the two-person panel, Zhongyuan Zhongya is definitely not Kluru's opponent, but the attributes can only provide a reference. The real battle situation may, may be different?
Eric encouraged Chuuya a few words, then stood up and left the hall.
…
At the end of the quarter-finals, the players rested for a whole day in comfort, and the subsequent battles were the highlight. Although the number of battles was reduced, the enthusiasm of the audience not only did not decrease, but instead became higher and higher.
"Huh..." Crocodile exhaled a puff of smoke. He was not used to being watched by the crowd like a monkey. Fortunately, the ring was very far away from the stands, and the audience basically watched the big screen.
"Shichibukai..." The king of the Kingdom of Prodence, Elizabello II, arrived at the Kingdom of China with his military advisor Da Gama. As the king of a country, he naturally has different treatment from ordinary audiences. The two of them quietly Waiting for Eric to arrive.
"Welcome King Elizabello to China." Eric opened the door and entered the private room with Yu Qian and Zhang Liang.
"Your Majesty Eric." Elizabello II quickly stood up to greet him: "Thank you for agreeing to my request to meet."
Eric's mouth moved slightly, and he smiled warmly and said: "China welcomes friends."
"These two must be His Majesty Eric's right-hand men." Elizabello II looked at Zhang Liang and Yu Qian and praised: "They are indeed talented people."
Indeed, compared with his strategist Vasco da Gama, there is absolutely a huge difference.
The two men cupped their hands and replied humbly: "King Elizabello is so complimentary."
"The King's Fist used by King Elizabello at that time is still fresh in my memory."
"Alas..." Elizabello II shook her head and said with a wry smile: "Anyone who says he can defeat the Four Emperors with one punch is just me sitting in a well and looking at the sky."
"What's the point of standing and chatting? Please sit down." Eric extended his hand to invite the two guests to sit down. After the five people took their seats, Eric went straight to the topic:
"King Elizabello, why do you want to join the Kingdom of China?"
Elizabello II explained: "In the past few years, the Dawn Sea... the rise of the Kingdom of China has been unstoppable. The world government is filled with all kinds of corruption. The world's nobles live a luxurious and luxurious life, while ordinary people are trying to gather... There is gold in the sky, tighten your pants as hard as you can..."
"It wasn't until I saw a prosperous scene in the Kingdom of China that I was convinced that this kind of governance existed!"
Elizabello II said with a sincere face: "The world government will only make the world worse and worse. I believe that His Majesty Eric will bring a different situation to the people!"
"..." Eric sighed and said, "Have you ever thought that the current prosperous scene of China State is actually plundering the wealth of other sea areas?"
"..." Elizabello II opened her mouth, not knowing how to answer it.
"Haha, just kidding." Eric wanted to pat Elizabello II on the shoulder, but he was not tall enough, so he gave up the original idea and said: "Because of plundering the long-accumulated wealth of the Beihai alliance countries, China The country’s current fiscal situation is very optimistic.”
"Your Majesty?" Yu Qian reminded Eric in a low voice not to reveal state secrets.
"Ahem" Eric coughed and changed the subject: "I welcome King Elizabello to join us, but it's just not the most appropriate time right now."
"However, I can give you a guarantee." Eric's eyes were solemn: "The Chinese Congress will protect the Kingdom of Prodence in the next few years."
"Your words are enough." Elizabello II reassured.
Eric narrowed his eyes and asked, "Even if he loses his position as king?"
The muscular man said seriously: "It doesn't matter!"
Vasco da Gama shouted anxiously: "Your Majesty!"
Elizabello II raised his hand to stop him and asked with a serious expression: "Your Majesty Eric, can you let the people of Prodence Kingdom live a happy life?"
"Of course." Eric chuckled: "But letting a king who is dedicated to the people abdicate is not what I want."
"You mean..."
"Wow——!"
The cheers outside interrupted the conversation between the two. Several people in the private room shifted their gaze and landed on the big screen directly opposite. The first game of the quarterfinals had begun.
"Shichibukai..." Aramaki, holding a cigarette in his mouth, said with a relaxed expression: "I tell you, it's best to admit defeat."
"Ah?" Crocodile looked at Huang Mu with a sinister look on his face: "What did you say just now?"
"I said..." Aramaki's tone showed impatience, and his whole body exuded laziness: "You'd better admit defeat in advance, fighting you will be very troublesome."
"Haha." Crocodile sneered twice and said in a cold tone: "As long as you die, there will be no trouble."
"Huh?" Aramaki curled his lips: "You don't think that a mere Shichibukai can defeat me, do you?"
"clang--"
The battle gong sounded, Crocodile's legs suddenly exerted their strength, and his two-and-a-half-meter-tall body sprinted out like an arrow:
"Crescent-shaped dunes!"
With the kinetic energy bursting from his body's sprint, Crocodile's right arm expanded and deformed in an instant, transforming into a crescent-shaped sand knife.
This swift blade of yellow sand cut through the air like a phantom, the sand grains rubbing at high speed rustled, and struck Aramaki in the next second.
"What!?" However, before Crocodile could enjoy the refreshing feeling of the killing blade sucking up the water, an expression of extreme astonishment appeared on his face first.
Aramaki was supposed to have absorbed all the water in the killing blade and turned into a corpse that looked like a mummy, but not only was Aramaki fine, the sand that had turned into the killing blade turned into yellow sand in the air as if it had lost its cohesion.
Aramaki's five fingers stretched rapidly, turning into sharp tree roots and stabbing Crocodile who was just one step away.
Caught off guard, Crocodile was hit in the right shoulder. He hurriedly transformed into elements, and countless flying yellow sands retreated back.
Crocodile glanced down. There was a hole in his coat, and his originally plump shoulders became a little shriveled.
Crocodile has always sucked away the moisture from others and made his opponents dry. This was the first time that his opponent had sucked away the moisture.
"Don't think that you are the only one who has natural fruits..." Aramaki said casually: "I am a forest person who ate the fruits of the forest. The forest, like the sea, is a place that breeds life. I am nature!"
"So what?!" Crocodile moved his injured right arm and pressed his right palm on the ground: "The ground is dry and cracked!"
The ring under Crocodile's feet was cracked, broken, and pulverized into sand under the influence of the Sand Fruit. The rich soil under the ring dried up and died, turning into a large desert in a matter of breaths.
The endless yellow sand surged like ocean waves, setting off a terrifying sandstorm in place.
"Heh." The vines extending from Aang Mu's ten fingers took root in the desert-shaped arena: "Forbidden Hatred!"
Countless grasses, flowers, and trees emerged from the ground, exploding with incredible vitality at this moment. In the crazily growing green tide, they produced, expanded, and deformed crazily, and the roots, branches, and vines were intertwined with each other. Together.
"..." Crocodile twitched the corners of his eyes and continued to activate his abilities, trying to drain and turn the forest created by Wild Animal Husbandry into desert. The entire arena was divided into two, with half becoming a desert and half becoming a forest.
"hateful!"
The sand churning in the air suddenly accelerated its rotation speed, and the sandstorm surrounding Crocodile gradually took shape, and the surrounding air also made a whistling sound due to the sandstorm.
Within a few breaths, the sandstorm became bigger and bigger. Crocodile stared and waved his arm: "Shalan!"
The roaring sandstorm flooded the entire forest in an instant.
"Go to hell, boy!" Crocodile laughed wildly: "Ha~ha~ha~ha~!"
However, this huge sandstorm shrank visibly to the naked eye and soon disappeared, revealing the green forest.
"Don't you know? The forest has the effect of preventing sand." Aramaki showed an expression that said "You should study more", which made Crocodile furious.
"I'm going to make you regret it—!" Crocodile almost shouted these words, and slapped his right palm heavily on the ground: "Erosion of reincarnation!"
Several trees that came into contact with the desert dried up and died in an instant, and a large amount of yellow sand swirled around Crocodile.
"Awakening? No..." Arammu narrowed his eyes: "It's not awakening, it's still worse."
"Give up, you are no match for me, oh, it's really troublesome..." Arammu transformed into a huge tree man, with countless trees and roots stationed around him.
"Desert Diamond Sword!"
The yellow sand flying in the air turned into sharp blades. As soon as these sand blades took shape, they rolled up the sand in the desert, and finally condensed into hundreds of sand blades: "Go to hell!"
Like heavy rain falling, all the sharp blades of yellow sand flew towards the lush forest.
"Kakaka"
The sharp sand blades cut off the tree trunks and branches blocking the path one by one. However, the forest is growing all the time. The branches that were cut off one second are filled with new branches the next second.
"Being able to become a Shichibukai means you have some ability..." Aramaki curled his lips and said, "However, that's all I have."
Crocodile relies on the small island under its feet to endlessly create gravel, and the sea level of the entire island has dropped a bit.
The yellow sand flying in the air continued to gather under Crocodile's control, forming a huge sand knife.
"Giant-Desert King Kong Sword!"
The flying speed of this sand knife is not fast, but it is huge and majestic. It seems to carry the momentum of an entire desert, and it cuts towards Huang Mu who has turned into a tree man with the power of a mountain.
"Lahahaha..."
As Aramaki laughed, countless tree roots, branches, and vines rose into the air, stabbing, piercing, and pulling towards the giant blade made of sand.
"Boom boom boom..."
Broken tree trunks flew horizontally, broken wood chips flew, and the desert diamond sword smashed all obstacles in front of it, but it was still unable to break through the fortress of the forest.
Dense branches and vines entangled the giant desert diamond sword. With a strong pull, the huge sand knife turned into a large amount of yellow sand and fell down.
Crocodile's body had already turned into yellow sand, bypassing the dense branches and obstacles, and arrived behind Huang Mu.
Some people died, but not completely...
