temple
Kona stood high and looked into the distance.
The trial was in full swing there, with some people challenging the passing trialists, and some running around chasing the priests who were being trialed. In short, it is very 'joyful' and lively.
Suddenly, Kona sensed something and turned her head to the side.
"Youyuko, you went to relax, why did you come back? By the way, have you dealt with that arrogant Raiden idiot who doesn't even fully understand domineering?"
Yuyouzi fell from the air, landed lightly next to Kona, and then sat down cross-legged.
Hearing Kona's question, Yuyuko shrugged her shoulders, "It's fun to torture vegetables, but... Luffy's progress is a bit slow."
Kona frowned and said, "Yuyouzi, are you too impatient? How long have you been teaching him~"
Youyuko shook her head, "It's not a matter of how long... Hey, forget it, I thought too much. In fact, his progress is already obvious enough."
"I heard that he defeated Crocodile. To be honest, I don't believe it." "It's a bit unbelievable. A kid who has barely mastered domineering defeated an old fritter who has been sailing on the sea for many years. I can't believe it at all. It took a lot of effort to get out of Crocodile before we could lose to him."
Yuyuko spread her hands and shrugged, "To be honest, I don't believe it either." "But it's precisely because we don't believe it that we can call it a miracle, right?"
Luffy can defeat Crocodile. Putting aside his identity as a hot-blooded comic book hero and returning to reality, it is impossible for anyone to believe that he can do it.
Natural type, Shichibukai, veteran powerhouse.
The superposition of various identities shows that Luffy has no chance of winning.
However, who would have thought that Crocodile would not be domineering~
Excessive underestimation of the enemy brings the ultimate beating. A good hand fails inexplicably.
This may be the intellectual power of the aura of pig's feet.
"So what did you do?"
"It's nothing. Give those two guys a stick each and wake up. After all, I used Kaido's tricks."
Kona was speechless for a while, "What does this have to do with Kaido's tricks?"
Yuyuko smiled mysteriously, "Kaido's signature move 'Thunder Bagua' is a well-known enlightenment stick technique. If you are not dead after being hit by this move, then the person who is hit by this move will definitely have a greatly improved understanding."
"Ouch~" "Speak carefully~ Why did you suddenly hit me on the head!" Youyouzi crouched down with his head in his hands.
Kona clapped her hands angrily, "It's nothing. I feel you are a little stupid. I want to help you gain some understanding." "So do you know what you have to do now?"
Youyouzi looked confused.
Do I, the captain, need to work? !
And... is there any work that I need to do by myself?
Just as he was thinking about it, a phone bug was thrown into Yuyouzi's hand.
"Solve the issues in the new world by yourself." After thinking for a moment, Kena added.
"Whitebeard is looking for you."
…
"Ah~!"
Enilu stood up straight, covered in cold sweat, and looked around in horror.
"Ah, turban man, you're awake."
Seeing Eniru waking up, Luffy weakly said hello next to him.
Enel looked over and saw that Luffy had a bandage on his head, and the top of his head was slightly higher.
Enelu winced in pain, and his memory flashed back...
once
twice
three times!
The horrific attack was unearthed from his memory, and his body trembled involuntarily.
However, the more frightened he felt, the more his memory took him back to the moments before he was hit.
The cold power poured over his body like a god's power, making it seem like his body was unable to move, and his barely activating ability to escape seemed to be an instinctive death struggle of an animal.
Embarrassed, extremely embarrassed.
This is the most embarrassing time since gaining power from Enel.
However, even when he was beaten so hard that he ran away with his head in his hands, he did not feel the overwhelming fear as he does now.
Did he lose so easily? !
Enel stretched out his hands, and in his eyes, his hands were shaking uncontrollably.
"Turban man, what's wrong with you?"
"I……"
Enel looked at Luffy next to him, and saw that although Luffy looked a little funny, he didn't look too shocked. "Are not you afraid?"
"Afraid?" Luffy frowned slightly, then tilted his head and wondered, "Why are you afraid?"
"With that kind of power...can you really win?"
"Huh?" Luffy grabbed his head and buckled, very puzzled. "Why do you have to win? Isn't this a trial? Isn't it normal for us to lose? If we lose, we should work harder and beat that masked guy next time. Just fly.”
Just like when he fought against Crocodile in Alabasta, that fight was not a sit-up between life and death.
And this time is different from Alabasta. At that time, I had to fight desperately for my own justice. It’s different here. This is just a trial. Just like the old lady’s trial in the small garden, death is not allowed. The same goes for the previous masked men. Although they defeated them, they did not endanger their lives. Instead, they After they fainted, they were simply bandaged.
If your life is not in danger, then shouldn't you just try your best to enjoy the battle?
If you lose once, try again.
"Trials, aren't they just constant challenges?"
Enelu couldn't help but be stunned, "Can we challenge again?"
"Probably..." Luffy said, looking around uncertainly, "Anyway, I didn't see anyone coming to register that we were disqualified. So just call back."
"..."
Enel was silent.
Can that kind of monster really be fought back? He felt a little unreliable.
"Don't think too much, just keep rushing!"
After saying that, Luffy grabbed Enel before he recovered.
Enelu's body suddenly stiffened, this familiar feeling...
"Straw Hat bastard, you fucking let me go!!"
…
At the same time, people on the trial road pricked up their ears in unison, because an announcement from the temple echoed in the jungle.
[Temporary announcement: The strength of the people participating in this trial is too different. In order to achieve the core purpose of the trial and give everyone a chance, we will announce an extremely powerful trialist and a special trialist. According to rough information, the player or player group that successfully defeats these two players will directly qualify for the Trial of God. There is no need to worry about life safety, there will be top priests protecting you secretly and providing certain temporary medical treatment. 】
[Strong Trialist: Wearing a turban and being bare-chested, the body will be beeping with electricity. 】
[Special tester: Wearing a yellow straw hat on his head, his body can extend and contract. 】
[Note: The two are in a team. 】
…
Sanji was leaning against a tree, smoking a cigarette, frowning.
"Luffy and someone else? It really suits that woman's bad taste. So what choice should I make now?"
Sanji looked around. The surroundings were filled with fog, and the visibility was at most ten meters. At the same time, because of the fog, the sound could not travel very far. Soon after the fog appeared, there were many innocuous attacks in the fog. Although it was neither painful nor itchy, it successfully dragged others into the fog.
Usopp and Chopper, who were following him, had gone to nowhere.
I could still hear the strange laughter of that bone from time to time before, but now I can no longer hear it completely.
The cigarette passed through his lungs and nicotine hit his mind. Sanji felt that his mind was extremely clear.
It's not surprising that the woman made such a vicious trial, but why was it such a trial.
This kind of trial is like...
Break through? !
Or is it an escape? !
Think about it from another angle? If you are the one who makes this rule, then what kind of trial effect do you want the core characters to get.
Breaking through... there are some.
In the face of heavy siege, breaking through is possible.
Endurance challenge?
Sanji shook his head at the thought.
No, this mode is not needed if it is just a simple endurance challenge, this mode is hoping for...a breakthrough.
Break through the siege? !
only……
If this is the case, then why is there a being who is judged to be extremely powerful next to him?
In this case, the effect of the trial would be greatly reduced.
However, no matter what the specific situation is, you should be able to almost decide what you need to do.
Then Sanji slowly closed his eyes.
"Empty, completely empty, just like that time..."
Soon, Sanji slowly opened his eyes, gently put out the cigarette butt, and walked slowly into the mist.
…
In the fog, Chopper and Usopp, with tears in their eyes crazily, ran wildly through the fog-shrouded jungle without looking back.
Finally, the two of them ran for who knows how long, and they stopped angrily after they hadn't heard the strange sound of 'Saxaul' behind them for a long time.
After the two of them confirmed that there was no guy behind a mask and a grimace suddenly jumping out of the bushes, they breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the ground.
"Chopper, I can't feel my legs! Did I break my legs~"
Chopper panted and glanced at Usopp, "Usopp, your legs are still there."
"Ah, really, that's great!~" Usopp breathed a sigh of relief. "It's too scary. This ghost trial is really scary. People are suddenly falling out of the grass. No matter how good your heart is, you can't stand it."
Chopper responded repeatedly, "That's right, it's so scary! I even feel like we're walking through a haunted house."
Chopper was also frightened by the guy who kept popping up from the grass or bushes along the way.
Although those people did not make things difficult for them and did not continue to chase them after seeing them flee in a hurry, but... this road is not only grass and bushes, tree tops, pits, ponds, caves... as long as it is a place where people can hide. Basically there are.
This is not a test of strength at all, this is simply a test of courage!
After a short rest, Usopp and Chopper finally recovered.
"By the way, Chopper, did you hear anything just now?"
Just when the two of them stood up, they vaguely heard some sounds around them, but the sounds were so muffled that they couldn't be heard clearly.
Chopper shook his head, "I heard it, but I couldn't understand what was said."
Usopp shrank his neck, "It's not those guys again, is it?!"
Chopper panicked, his mouth trembling, "No...it can't be."
"How about... we keep running?"
Chopper hesitated and said, "Run out of the fog first!"
"good!"
