One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

They were even more unlucky than those who were killed in the explosion.

Anything shrouded in smoke will be affected by the Pokémon energy contained within it, suffering burns, lightning strikes, or ice penetration...

They will either die or be injured.

"Hehehe, as expected of Buggy-senpai! His skills are truly extraordinary!"

Barto, who already had sharp teeth, burst into a devilish laugh upon seeing this scene.

He suddenly made a strange gesture with his fingers, and then conjured a barrier staircase from thin air that connected the arena to the audience seats.

"My men! This is our first battle since joining the Straw Hat Grand Fleet!"

"We can't let anyone look down on us!"

"Kill them all!!!"

At Barto's command, a large number of people who were originally dressed in circus costumes suddenly ripped off their collars and transformed into a series of colorful, flamboyant gangsters.

"kill!!!!"

A group of punks, armed with curved knives and firearms, quickly surged onto the audience seats, like wolves among sheep, and continued to hack and slash at the spectators who were not affected by the shelling.

Seeing this, Bucky was equally unwilling to be outdone and shouted directly:

"Gardino!"

"understood!"

With an inexplicable tacit understanding, Mr. 3 responded and waved his hands, suddenly unleashing a large amount of thick white liquid that quickly solidified in the air, covering the entire dueling arena and forming a series of solid steps.

"Heh~"

Bucky snorted and patted Bartolomeo on the shoulder with an air of arrogance.

"Put away your abilities, junior."

"In terms of methods, you're still far from being a match!"

"Remember, combat is never a concern for the Straw Hat Grand Fleet."

"The Straw Hat Grand Fleet needs well-rounded individuals!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Bucky's upper body suddenly flew high into the air, holding a knife in one hand and a gun in the other, shouting loudly in mid-air:

"Young men, we can't let a bunch of juniors steal our thunder!"

"Let the world see how powerful the Buggy Pirates are!!!"

"kill!!!!"

Amid Buggy's cheers, all the members of the Buggy Pirates raised their arms and rushed towards the stands.

Unlike the "Shamate" (a subculture characterized by flamboyant and often outlandish fashion)...

Each member of the Buggy Pirates would emit a faint glow of different colors as they rushed into the audience.

Then, a variety of Pokémon moves, such as scorching gunpowder, dazzling lightning, and powerful water pressure, were released from their bodies one after another.

It made simple killings colorful and exciting.

"What's going on?! Everyone here has an ability user?!"

Some spectators who were not affected by the explosion stared in horror at the scene before them, completely stunned by what they saw.

Many people even got so scared that they wet their pants and lost control of their bladders.

But soon, the pungent smell was completely masked by the smell of blood.

Both the Buggy Pirates and the Barto Pirates are composed entirely of legitimate pirates.

Murder was commonplace for them.

What's more, they were killing a group of such inhuman scum.

Furthermore, the rivalry between the members of the two pirate crews makes their actions even faster.

A white knife goes in, a red knife comes out.

In an instant, heads fell to the ground like balls.

"Demons!!! They're a bunch of demons!!!"

"Bodyguards! Where are the bodyguards!?"

"Help! Someone please save me! I have money!!! I can give you lots of money!!!"

"........."

"........."

Cries for help echoed throughout the dimly lit underground arena, but no one could respond to them.

Because those bodyguards were in dire straits themselves.

After all, the Buggy Pirates, equipped with Pokémon moves, are no longer as powerful as they used to be.

Ordinary maritime forces would be no match for them.

If it weren't for always following Red's demand not to oppress ordinary people, coupled with Buggy's own tendency to hide...

They had already made a name for themselves on the Grand Line.

It doesn't matter.

I believe that after today, their fame will resound throughout the entire ocean!

The quick-witted Mr. 3 had already used the power of the Wax Wax Fruit to seal off all the escape routes.

Even the communication equipment and Den Den Mushi (snail telephones) here were marked as his primary targets for attack.

Mr. 3's appearance successfully replaced Kabakki of the Buggy Pirates, making him the most powerful strategist in the crew.

Even though he hasn't been a member for long, his methods have already won over most of the Buggy Pirates.

……

……

at the same time.

Thanks to the underground arena's highly concealed construction and perfect soundproofing, it was able to remain intact.

In addition, the communication equipment and personnel have already been eliminated by Mr. 3.

So even though Buggy and Barto's pirate crews wreaked havoc, turning the area below into a living hell...

However, the hotel above the arena remained calm and welcoming of the Celestial Dragons' return.

It was as if nothing had happened.

“Saint Serentinia, the batch of insects you brought yesterday have now successfully entered the box.”

"Now we are just waiting for your command, and we can put your pet Ronnie into the box so he can have a good meal!"

"Hmm~"

Celestial Dragon Serentinia nodded in satisfaction, a cold smile playing on her lips.

"Well done!"

"Let's go take a look!"

"Yes! Saint Serentinia!!!"

The steward in charge of managing the arena immediately nodded and bowed in agreement.

Not all Celestial Dragons are as idiotic as the ones Luffy encountered in the original story.

In fact, the Celestial Dragons, who inherited the bloodline of 19 royal families, possess far greater potential than ordinary people, both in mind and body.

Some Celestial Dragons, however, have become so accustomed to a life of luxury that they have turned into idiots.

However, the vast majority of Celestial Dragons actually intentionally train their own strength or establish businesses that they like.

Just like this underground arena.

Because the people who came and went were all famous merchants and nobles, the arena was very profitable.

Including revenue from gambling, alcohol, and other sources, the annual income is at least 100 billion peggs.

This is almost half of the amount of Berries that the World Government allocates to each Celestial Dragon.

Nobody dislikes having more money.

Even the Celestial Dragons, who already possess almost everything.

squeak--

With the help of two armored guards, the heavy and imposing gate was slowly opened.

Celestial Dragon Saint Serentinia stepped into the exclusive passage leading to the underground arena.

Inside the arena, there is a separate platform several meters higher than the audience seating area.

This observation deck was specially built for the Celestial Dragons, or other visitors to Serentinia.

At all times, the Celestial Dragons must hold a higher status than everyone else!

Even within this underground arena.

however……

After Saint Serentinia shook off her bodyguard, just as she was about to enjoy a bloody and cruel pleasure alone...

His steps suddenly came to a halt.

Even through the thick glass barrier, the stench of blood clearly reached his nostrils.

Saint Serentinia curiously took two steps forward, arriving at the best vantage point.

He saw it immediately...

The entire arena was now in complete chaos!

Bright red blood trickled down the entire arena, flowing down the white candle-lit steps.

They eventually converged into a white container in the very center of the arena, as if some kind of evil god's game was taking place.
