The Tianlong man struggled to smash out the drink in his hand. The light-colored liquid splashed on the soft high-end carpet and seeped into it. He shouted angrily: "Idiot! Waste!"
"..." The servant serving him trembled and allowed the Tianlong people to beat and scold him.
"You!" Tianlong suddenly remembered and pointed at the black suit with his fat finger: "Didn't you say that the Shichibukai will definitely win!?"
"Holy Kurus, spare your life!" Black Suit never said these words, but he didn't dare to talk back to the Tianlong people at all, and he knelt down and begged for mercy as soon as he made a move.
"Useless guy!" The Tianlong people greeted: "Guards!"
Two armored guards took a step forward, walked out of the crowd, and knelt on one knee in front of him:
"Holy Kurus."
The Tianlong man pointed at the black suit who was kneeling on his knees begging for mercy, completely ignoring the master-servant relationship that the other party had served him for many years: "Drag him out and beat him to death with a stick!"
"Yes." The tone of the two guards did not change at all, and they faithfully carried out the orders issued by the Tianlong people.
"Holy Kurus, spare your life, spare your life -!" The black suit struggled desperately, but could not escape the control of the two guards. After all, his physical fitness was far inferior to the guards who protected the Tianlong people.
"Ahhh..." The black suit let out a sharp and miserable cry.
The screams coming from outside the door and the "crackling" sound of sticks hitting flesh made many people at the scene stay silent.
"Huh..." Tianlong seemed to take a breath and relaxed his whole body.
The Tianlong man spoke slowly: "I remember that there are still two Shichibukai."
"That's right, that's right..." Several other servants nodded repeatedly.
"But, only one Shichibukai can advance to the next round!" The Tianlong man was furious again.
"..." The servants and slaves with collars all buried their heads deeply, not daring to raise their heads at all.
After getting angry for a while, Tianlongren's attention finally shifted to the TV screen: "Who is that woman?"
The content played on the TV was surprisingly Kluru VS Nakahara Chuuya.
"Who are the two sides fighting?" Tianlong asked. From his indifferent attitude, it can be seen that he never cares about other contestants.
"Both of them are members of the Dawn Pirates." The servant on the side replied: "The man's name is Nakahara Chuuya, and he has a bounty of 450 million; the woman's name is Krulu Tepesi, although she is a newcomer. , but the burst of strength is extremely powerful.”
"Well..." Tianlongren picked up a drink, thinking that the Dawn Pirates would also eliminate each other, so he felt very good. He sank into the sofa limply and watched the battle scenes on the TV.
…
"Boom boom boom..."
Under the gravity exerted by Zhongyuan Zhongya, the ground squeezed out circular pits one after another, constantly chasing Krulru's pink figure.
"What a troublesome ability..." Krulru smacked his lips, and nimbly moved beyond Chuuya Nakahara's attack range, quickly closing the distance between the two.
Krulru is used to fighting with his five fingers together, which is also known as a hand knife. However, the sharpness of this knife is no less sharp than any peerless knife.
The delicate palm with five fingers joined together made a swipe in the air, erupting with astonishing destructive power that was not commensurate with its size!
Facing the slashing wave coming along the ground, Nakahara Zhongya grinned at one corner of his mouth, and the gravity halo that enveloped his whole body became deeper. His right fist was placed flat on the side of his face, and the fist fingers wrapped in black leather gloves were closed one by one, and his waist The legs and shoulders were slightly contracted to accumulate strength, and the muscles in the whole body were tightened to the limit.
"ha!"
Nakahara Chuuya punched out, hitting the sword energy swung by Krululu. The powerful energy condensed into a ball suddenly scattered, setting off a turbulent air wave and blowing away the surrounding rubble.
Just as the aftermath of the collision was raging in all directions, Krululu took advantage of the situation and rushed to Nakahara Chuuya's side.
The red light in Zhongye's eyes shone brightly, with himself as the center, and everything within a radius of tens of meters was covered in red light.
"boom!"
A powerful gravity torrent was generated in an instant, pouring all of it on the land including Krulru. The solid land collapsed and was pressed out of a huge pit without any resistance, abruptly interrupting Krullu. high-speed movement.
However, Krulru is the ancestor of the vampire who has lived for thousands of years, and her physical fitness is far superior to that of ordinary humans. She resisted the strong gravity exerted on her body and continued to attack Zhongyuan Zhongya.
With his fingers like a knife and his fingertips like a spear, he stabbed directly at Zhongyuan Zhongye's left arm.
Zhongyuan Zhongya didn't dare to be too bold and threw a backhand punch, which collided with Krululu's sharp nails.
"Qiang!"
A wave of energy containing energy was released from the place where the two people met, and their figures immediately passed each other.
Three blood-red paw prints suddenly appeared on Zhongyuan Zhongya's black coat and white lining. The wound was not deep, but the flesh and blood were turned out and blood gurgled out.
"Lick~" Krulru stretched out his soft tongue and licked his fingertips. There was blood flowing out of Zhongyuan Zhongya on his sharp nails.
Krulru commented: "Blood tastes good..."
"It's so dangerous..." Nakahara Chuuya said fearfully: "If there is no gravity protection, I will be disemboweled by you..."
"Admit defeat." Krulru said lightly: "You are no match for me."
"That's not necessarily true." Zhongyuan Zhongya controlled gravity to stop the wound from bleeding and regain his fighting posture.
"Hmph." Krulru snorted, her pink hair flowing back, and her young body rushed towards Nakahara Chuuya again.
…
"The winner is--Klulu Cepesi!" Tezzolo announced the result loudly, bringing the long-lasting battle to an end.
After the game, Eric came to Nakahara Chuuya's bedside and encouraged him: "Thank you for your hard work, Chuuya."
Zhongyuan Zhongya felt ashamed and said: "Sorry, boss, I lost."
"Why, do you find it difficult to accept losing to me?" Krulru asked bluntly.
Zhongyuan Zhongya shook his head and blamed himself: "No, I'm just angry with myself."
"You and a man who has lived for thousands of years..." Perona suddenly felt murderous intent emerging from behind her, and changed the subject: "It is only natural that you lose to Krululu."
"Zhongya, your battle performance today is very amazing. It has impressed most people. If it goes as expected, your strength will definitely attract the attention of the navy's top brass."
Eric smiled: "Just wait, your bounty will definitely increase significantly before long."
"Really..." Zhongyuan Zhongya was a little unsure.
"That's right." Eric said while quietly calling up Nakahara Chuuya's attribute panel: "Clench your fist and feel the reluctance in your heart, and more power will definitely flow out of your body."
"..." Nakahara Chuuya closed his eyes and followed the instructions. Eric spent a total of 16 bond points to add half a star of Armed Color Haki to Nakahara Chuya, reaching seven and a half stars; and half a star of Devil Fruit, reaching eight stars.
"Really!" Nakahara Chuya said in disbelief: "I feel that controlling gravity has become more comfortable!"
Eric said solemnly: "This...is the power of will."
"Boss, I understand!" Zhongyuan Zhongya nodded heavily.
[Nakahara Chuuya’s favorability has increased significantly, the bond level has increased from 3 to 4, and 3 bond points have been obtained]
Some members who were familiar with the inside story watched in amusement as Eric deceived Nakahara Chuuya, but did not point it out to his face.
"Zhongya, you have a good rest." Eric warned: "I still have a very important task that I need you to complete."
"Yes." Zhongyuan Zhongya agreed without knowing the specific content of the task.
…
"Sengoku, what do you think?" Garp, a senior naval officer who has been paying attention to the world's best martial arts club, was the first to ask a question.
"The strength of this newcomer..." Warring States hesitated to speak.
"She has strength that exceeds that of most lieutenant generals." Lieutenant General He answered for him: "And she also ate the devil fruit in the form of a fantasy beast and a vampire."
Garp muttered: "Where did the Dawn Pirates find these members... I have never heard of these people before, it's like they appeared out of thin air."
"Who knows..." Admiral He lowered his eyes: "Maybe the Dawn Pirates have an intelligence network that we don't know about."
"The contestant who defeated Crocodile is also very strong and has a very rare natural ability."
"That guy named Aramaki?" Garp pinched his nose and said with a bit of disdain: "I always feel like he is a little gangster, Sengoku, are you trying to get him to join the Navy Headquarters?"
"Why not?" Sengoku glared and said, "With a smile... he was a marine with strong strength and a strong sense of justice. It's a pity that he died in the hands of the Dawn Pirates. Aramaki might as well become such a marine."
"No, no, no..." Garp shook his head like a rattle: "When you smile, you can see that he is an upright guy with a strong sense of justice, and this Arammu..."
Karp found a lot of faults from top to bottom: "It's definitely different from Yixiao!"
"Garp." Lieutenant General He said helplessly: "In the past year, although the navy has recruited a lot of troops, the top and middle-level combat forces are still scarce. There may be some flaws in the character and style of masters. Just turn a blind eye. Just close one eye..."
"What's more, the world government allows the existence of the Shichibukai, so why can't you tolerate a colleague with a poor personality and style?"
"..." Garp exhaled a breath and said in a heavy tone: "It is because of the inaction of the world government that the number of pirates is increasing. If..."
"Garp, what you said cannot solve the current problem at all."
Garp shouted: "But the problem lies at the root!"
In Sengoku's office, it was as if you could hear a pin drop clearly.
"Warring States, think about it carefully." Garp argued: "One unfair trial is more harmful than ten crimes, because crimes only dirty the water, while unfair trials corrupt the water." Find the source of water!"
"Same goes for the Navy!"
"..." Warring States and Lieutenant General He were both speechless.
After a long time, Warring States slowly spoke: "Let's send someone to contact Aramu first..."
…
On the second day of the eight-to-four competition, the battle between the super newcomer "Fire Fist" and the Dawn Pirates' "Vicious Shark" officially began.
"Are you Fire Fist?" Kisame grinned, revealing a row of sharp teeth: "The latest newspapers are full of news about you."
"Stop talking, if you don't want to get hurt, just admit defeat as soon as possible!" Ace replied rudely, with flames igniting on his body.
"Huh~huh~huh~" Kisame laughed: "You are so young and energetic..."
"fire punch!"
Ace's entire right fist burned with scorching flames, and in an instant it expanded into a terrifying sea of orange-red fire. He punched out, and a violent wave of flames swept forward.
The orange-red firelight first illuminated Kisame's face, and Kisame's light gray face was turned orange-red by the fire fist.
"call!"
Kisame raised his hand to remove the Samehada muscle from his back and slashed it forward. The stream of flames was split into two.
The flames split into two parts passed by both sides of Kisame, and the high temperature carried by the flames burned Kisame through the air.
"Good job." Kisame quickly formed seals with his hands: "Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
The seawater around the arena rotated rapidly, forming a vortex and rising into the sky. It condensed into a huge water dragon in mid-air and rushed towards Ace.
"...!" Without saying a word, Ace punched out again. A huge pillar of blazing fire burned the air and collided with the water dragon.
"Chi-!"
The flames collided with the sea water and became entangled. The hot flames evaporated the entire water dragon, producing a large amount of white steam.
In the hazy and moist water vapor, Ace's face became solemn.
As we all know, water is the nemesis of fire. Faced with an opponent who is not inferior to him in strength and has an attribute advantage, Ace is no longer 100% sure of winning.
"Ace..." Sabo finally woke up while lying on the hospital bed, and the first thing he did when he woke up was to ask Ace. Kerla had no choice but to help him find a TV to watch the game.
"Saab, why did the bear hit you so hard?" Bello Betty asked.
"I don't know either." Sabo shook his head and then remembered:
"By the way, Bear said goodbye to me..."
"I didn't understand what he meant, so he was knocked down by a bear..."
"Commander, do you know what the bear means?" Sabo asked. Sabo was a little worried because the bear used the "Goodbye" LS Sayuna.
"..." After a long silence, Bello Betty shook her head and replied: "I don't know either."
"There must be his reason..." Sabo lowered his head: "After all, bears are so gentle."
Haku on the side said: "In the past few days, we have not found where the bear has gone."
"Huh..." Bello Betty breathed out: "We can't get the answer by making random guesses. When the bear appears, we can ask him personally."
"Yeah." The other three agreed to Bello Betty's proposal.
Sabo then turned around and continued watching Ace's battle.
"Don't you understand yet?" Kisame said with a smile, "You are no match for me."
Ace said firmly: "No, I will definitely defeat you!"
"Strength cannot be expressed with words..." Kisame's cheeks puffed up after completing the seal: "Water Release: Exploding Water Wave!"
Some people died, but not completely...
