One Piece: The World King Who Emerged from the White Town

Despite Killua's attempts to comfort him, Gon clenched his fists tighter and tighter.

He was a little unwilling.

The more stubborn a person is, the more likely they are to get stuck on a single point.

If it were Killua in this situation, he would definitely choose to admit defeat without hesitation.

"Have you thought it through? If you admit defeat now, we won't arrange a venue for you; it will just count towards your score."

"And you will not face off again for at least six months."

Killua noticed Gon's unusual behavior and asked, "What's wrong? You don't actually want to fight that monster, do you?"

Having finally made up his mind, Xiao Jie nodded seriously. "Yes, although I know I'm no match for that person, I want to see how far I am from a true powerhouse."

Killua looked surprised, but inwardly he felt that this was something Gon was capable of doing.

"I think you're crazy, but I can't think of a reason to stop you. After all, once you decide to do something, no one can change your mind."

Xiao Jie scratched his head sheepishly, "I'm sorry, I was too willful."

"You know that's good. Also... just don't get killed."

"Yes! If I can't hold on any longer, I'll admit defeat in time."

Xiao Jie made a very serious promise.

Killua was still worried, because in the heat of battle, you can't just give up whenever you want.

Otherwise, so many people wouldn't have died in the ring.

Inside the room, Abel hadn't expected the sixth match to come so soon.

Moreover, his opponent this time is a boy named Xiao Jie.

Therefore, he even went to verify the other party's identity.

That's right, the guy who's going to fight him is indeed the 'protagonist' of this world in a certain sense.

Even if the other party has the protagonist's halo, they are still a beginner who hasn't grown up yet.

He's sure to win; the only question is whether he should choose a gentler approach or a more brutal one.

"As expected, protagonists are creatures whose potential can only be unleashed by giving them a good beating."

Abel thought about it seriously and realized that this must be true.

There's a saying that goes, "As long as the trials that don't kill the protagonist, they will eventually become nourishment for the protagonist's explosive growth in strength."

There are two matches on the 200th floor today.

The first battle to begin was between Killua and Dorado.

That Dorado, whose race was unknown, had red skin and, like some indigenous people, had many incomprehensible patterns painted on his face and body.

It's terrifying, incredibly wild!

His weapon is a double-headed spear, and his Nen ability can extend the duration of his attacks.

Killua was originally just testing the results of his training over this period of time, and the two sides fought fiercely.

The audience response was also positive.

However, Dorado thought Killua's strength was nothing special and started making all sorts of boastful remarks.

Killua, who was already somewhat irritated from the prolonged battle, was instantly aroused by this and became like a different person, instantly killing him with a heart-piercing strike!

This is a classic case of "Why did you provoke him!"

The audience thoroughly enjoyed the show, but of course, they also suffered a crushing defeat.

After all, when the betting started, no one thought much of the newcomer, Qi Ya.

Now they've been slapped in the face.

But it doesn't matter, they definitely won't bet wrong again in the next game!

After the same arena was cleaned up, Xiao Jie and Abel appeared on stage amidst the host's enthusiastic and animated introduction.

Now everyone can see Abel's ambition.

This is an attempt to break the record for the fastest ten-game winning streak on the 200th floor, and then challenge the 'Lord'!

So even though Abel's opponent was just a newcomer, and an ordinary boy at that, the crowd's interest remained undiminished.

They want to witness it all the way!

And then make some extra money on the side.

No matter how low Sky Arena lowered the odds for Abel to win, it still couldn't dampen the audience's enthusiasm for betting on him.

After all, it's free money, so why not take it? Even if it's a little less, it's fine.

In this match, Xiao Jie's odds of winning are 1:10000.

1 to 1!

With such astonishing odds, there will always be some guys who like to bet on the underdogs and take a gamble.

If I win, I'll be living in a villa by the sea.

If that doesn't work, we'll take it to the factory to tighten the screws.

It's all about the thrill!

Standing on the ring, Xiao Jie was still a little nervous, not because there were too many people watching, but because his opponent was different from any he had faced before.

"It's not too late to admit defeat, newbie."

"I know I definitely can't beat you right now, but I still want to give it a try."

"This is really annoying..."

Chapter 388 One Must Not Look Directly at the Gods!

What does Xiao Jie's stubbornness seem like to Abel?

A basketball beginner, having only mastered the basics, insists on playing one-on-one against an NBA All-Star player.

They even said that they knew they couldn't win, but they still wanted to try.

try what?

The mere thought of having such a thought is already an insult to the other person.

It can be said that this spirit has been completely misused.

It takes commendable courage to challenge an opponent who is only one or two levels stronger than yourself.

To challenge an opponent who is ten thousand times stronger than oneself is to be suicidal and lack self-awareness!

So Abel decided to teach this guy a lesson he would never forget.

"The battle begins!"

When the host announced the start of the battle, Xiao Jie assumed a fighting stance with extreme vigilance, staring intently at Abel.

Before stepping into the ring, he set a goal for himself of five minutes.

If you can last for five minutes, you 'win'!

"If it only takes 5 minutes, I can definitely do it."

Xiao Jie kept encouraging himself in his heart.

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out from behind him, "What kind of illusion makes you think you have the right to stand in front of me and blink?"

Xiao Jie was instantly startled, and cold sweat broke out all over his body.

He hadn't looked away the entire time, but there was no one in front of him anymore.

Could it be that the opponent's speed has really reached a point where he doesn't even have the chance to blink?!

escape!

Run away!

Xiao Jie roared inwardly, trying to control his feet to get away from the monster behind him.

However, a terrifying and chilling murderous aura bound him tightly in place, rendering him unable to move.

That was something far more terrifying than Hisoka's malevolent Nen.

At that moment, Xiao Jie felt as if he had fallen into endless darkness, with all the light around him swallowed up by the darkness.

All I could see was darkness; there was nothing at all.

Then suddenly a sound came...

Xiao Jie forced himself to calm down and listen carefully.

That sound... it sounded like some kind of monster chewing and tearing something!

And it didn't come from just one direction, but from all directions!

Xiao Jie didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

They were afraid of attracting the attention of these monsters lurking in the darkness.

But the most terrifying thing still happened. At one moment, the chewing sound stopped, and the silence in the darkness was eerie.

The immense pressure forced Xiao Jie to swallow hard.

But that thud drew the attention of the monster in the darkness.

A pair of scarlet eyes shone from the darkness!

Then, as if triggering a chain reaction, countless pairs of scarlet eyes lit up one after another.

With undisguised malice and greed, he stared intently at Xiao Jie, who was trapped in darkness, isolated and helpless.

It seemed as if they would swarm in at any moment and tear it apart and devour it completely.

Most people would probably have collapsed by now.
