They risked their lives to climb up, only to find it was all for nothing.

To make matters worse, the owner of the bird's nest returned at this time.

Chapter 973 Rewards and Bestowals

Although the challenges on each island were meticulously designed by Judge and his team, they were very difficult to overcome.

But never underestimate the intelligence and strength of these contestants.

After making numerous sacrifices, every final test was overcome.

The seven winners who finally obtained the golden key all gathered on Beehive Island, awaiting their rewards and honors.

"coming!"

Witnessed by countless members of the Dragon Hunter Guild, Abel, who had finished his training and even taken a bath, finally appeared and sat on the throne on the high platform.

On his left and right sides were seven treasure chests.

Abel, like a true king, didn't need to utter a single word, and the entire scene immediately fell silent.

You can see the fervor and excitement in the eyes or expressions of any of these people!

Those who survived so many wars almost universally regard him as a god.

Regardless of how others see it, President Abel will always be the undisputed king in their hearts!

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Abel finally saw the seven who would ultimately win and receive the golden key.

Although he had already seen the list before and memorized the names of these people.

But when he saw two familiar figures, he couldn't help but linger for a moment longer.

The girl was a little uneasy, afraid that President Abel might disqualify her at any moment.

Fortunately, Abel didn't seem to have that idea and tacitly agreed that she could stand there.

"Gentlemen, with your witness, the Dragon Hunting Tournament has finally determined the final seven winners."

"Next, I will bestow upon you the title of the Seven Deadly Sins, and the reward you earned with your lives!"

"Come forward in order of the number on the golden key."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the person holding the No. 1 golden key strode up the platform and stood before Abel.

At the same time, it is subject to everyone's scrutiny.

"X Drake, are you willing to join the Dragon Hunter Guild from this day forward, swear allegiance to me, and never betray me?"

Under Abel's imposing gaze, Drake knelt on one knee without hesitation and said in a deep voice, "I, X. Drake, swear to be loyal to you forever and never betray you. If I break this oath, may I be struck down by the heavens!"

Abel gave the guy a deep look. "Alright, open the box in front of you."

Drake got up and did as he was told, taking out a red Devil Fruit from inside.

"This is the Snake-Snake Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Yamata no Orochi form. In terms of rarity, it is even more valuable than Logia-type fruits in some respects."

"Eat it."

Abel certainly wouldn't let anyone take the Devil Fruit away, especially not the one from his own memories.

Everyone must eat the Devil Fruit in front of him.

Drake immediately put it to his mouth and took a bite.

The taste was far worse than he had imagined, causing him to frown slightly before forcing himself to swallow it.

But I had no intention of taking a second bite.

Whether you eat just one bite of a Devil Fruit or eat the whole thing, the effect is the same, so there's no need to torture yourself.

Seeing this, Abel didn't care and continued to say loudly, "From now on, you are the sin of greed among the Seven Deadly Sins of the Dragon Hunter Guild. Remember your oath: if you ever betray me and the guild, I will personally take back everything that has been given to you."

"Drake would never dare!"

Abel nodded casually, indicating that he could leave.

At that moment, a unified voice immediately rang out from the crowd.

"The Sin of Greed - Drake!"

……

As the second person stepped onto the platform, the cheers gradually subsided, a sign of respect for Chairman Abel.

"Scyllachman Ap, are you willing to join the Dragon Hunter Guild from this day forward, swearing allegiance to me and never betraying me?"

Abel looked at the other person, putting immense pressure on him.

Because this guy isn't exactly loyal; he's more like a fence-sitter.

They will only side with the stronger party.

Therefore, as long as Abel is not defeated and continues to maintain his strength and influence, he will never be able to cause any trouble.

Soon, Ap also swore allegiance to Abel.

Then he opened the treasure chest, obtained the Paramecia-type Sound-Sound Fruit, and ate it.

Among the seven Devil Fruits that Abel presented as his final reward, the Sound-Sound Fruit might only rank last in terms of rarity and value.

However, because of the uniqueness of this Devil Fruit and its considerable potential for development, it does not necessarily mean that it is the weakest.

At least Apoo didn't show any dissatisfaction when he received the Devil Fruit.

"From this day forward, you shall be the sin of envy, one of the Seven Deadly Sins of the Dragon Hunter Guild."

"The Sin of Envy - Ap!"

……

The third person to ascend the platform was Capone Becky from the West Sea Mafia family.

Although he had the air of a big shot, he paled in comparison to Abel and was completely overshadowed.

This is the result after Abel had restrained himself.

If he wanted to give the other party a hard time, he only needed to release a little bit of his Observation Haki to make them sweat profusely.

There's just no need for it right now.

The following steps follow the same procedure, so I won't go into detail again.

Capone Bege opened the treasure chest and obtained the Island-Island Fruit, earning him the title of Sin of Sloth.

The fourth person to come before Abel was someone he neither knew nor had ever heard of before.

But this guy is the one that 'Hawkeye' Mihawk has made everyone pay close attention to!

The mysterious March.

To be honest, March's current position was not part of his original plan.

But as the saying goes, plans can't keep up with changes.

Although he didn't want the so-called golden key, nor did he want to show off like that, he eventually had no choice but to get his hands on it after much trouble.

Otherwise, he had no doubt that the team he was in would be completely wiped out in the end.

The combined forces of the giant bird and the awakened divine tree nearly wiped out everyone on the island.

In order to see Abel, March had to take a risk and come up with a new plan.

"Machi... that shouldn't be your real name, right? Now that you've come up to me, why are you hiding behind a mask?"

March feigned hesitation and said, "There's a reason I'm doing this. My identity is rather sensitive, and I'm afraid that if Chairman Abel knew, he wouldn't dare accept me."

Wow!

Before Abel could say anything, the rest of the people below erupted in uproar.

What did they just hear?

Someone actually said their student council president wouldn't dare?

Is there anything in this world that their leader wouldn't dare to do?

As a result, the crowd was filled with righteous indignation and their emotions ran high, instantly drowning out all other voices.

"Utterly absurd!"

"Is there anything in this world that the president wouldn't dare to do? It's ridiculous!"

"That's right, take off your mask and let us see who this big shot is who dares to be so arrogant!"

"Do you think you're one of the Celestial Dragons? You clown!"

"Get off!"
