One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

A huge cloud of smoke enveloped everything like a curtain.

Dongli stood there, panting, staring at the billowing fog. Suddenly, his gaze sharpened as he looked intently at his arm.

Suddenly, a row of sharp bite marks appeared on his arm.

More importantly, the color of the bite mark was neither the charred black of the previous flames, nor the deep blue of frozen solidity, nor the bright red of flowing blood...

Instead, it was a deep purple color that evoked disgust in people at first glance.

"What's this!?"

A bad feeling suddenly welled up in Dongli's mind.

At that moment, movement came again from within the thick smoke.

Drake, covered in dirt, shook his head as he emerged from the dust.

Judging from his thick Tyrannosaurus Rex skin, it seems that the impact just now did not cause him much damage.

Instead, a deafening chorus of boos suddenly erupted from the Straw Hat crew watching from afar:

"What a mess, Drake!!!"

"What a waste! You were attracted by such an obvious flaw?"

"Hey Drake, you're not going to lose such an important game while you're in first place, are you?!"

"........."

"........."

Seeing Drake's disheveled appearance, the Straw Hat crew burst into a frenzied, maniacal mockery.

They knew very well that Drake wouldn't lose.

Because Drake hardly ever used any Pokémon moves throughout the entire series; he relied entirely on the modification device that Quinn had given him.

Although moves are just a means of combat, they will only truly understand this after actually fighting against the pirate natives using Pokémon moves...

Just how powerful are Pokémon moves when combined flexibly!

Drake, who is capable of transforming into a dual-type Pokémon, naturally already possesses the ability to break through the limit on the number of moves on the skill panel.

However, in response to his own team's ridicule, Drake stood up and gave them a vicious, malicious look.

"idiot!!!!"

It was clearly just a low swear, but when it came out of the dragon's mouth, it sounded like a booming bell.

Then, Drake turned back to Dorry, who was standing still, and said in a low, hoarse voice:

"Can't you see it?"

"I have won this battle!!!"

"Ok?"

Drake's arrogant declaration immediately drew puzzled looks from everyone present, whether they were on the Straw Hat side, the Titan side, or the viewers in front of their televisions.

But at that moment, Dongli suddenly clutched his arm and let out a violent scream.

"what--!!!!"

"Dongli!?"

Brogy, standing in the giant formation, shouted anxiously.

As a friend who had fought alongside him for over a hundred years, he knew very well that Dongli's screams were not due to simple physical injury.

Only then did everyone notice that Dongli was covering his wrist with one hand.

Through the gaps between his fingers, a dark purplish-black color could be seen.

"Is it...poisoning?!"

Shanks, with his sharp eyes, was the first to notice the anomaly and murmured something.

"Poisoned?!"

After Shanks' reminder, the Titans realized the problem and all looked at Dorry's wrist.

In that moment of confusion, the color of the poison on Dongli's wrist slowly seeped out from the edge of his large palm.

"What...what kind of toxin is this!?"

With gritted teeth, Donley struggled to lift his head and look at Drake.

Giants are a naturally strong race, possessing extremely high resistance to poison. Many toxins that are fatal to ordinary people may have only a negligible effect on giants.

not to mention……

Given the enormous size of giants, killing one with poison under the same conditions often requires a more complex dosage than other methods.

Therefore, few giants worried about being poisoned.

Unfortunately, his wrist was in excruciating pain, and coupled with his already injured shoulder, it was fair to say that his arm had completely lost its ability to fight, and would even become a burden in the upcoming battle.

In a normal combat situation, Donli would have already severed the poisoned wrist with a single sword strike to prevent it from hindering his movements.

But this... is just a tournament match against the Straw Hat Pirates?

There shouldn't be any need for them to fight to the death, right?

"Don't worry! We have plenty of the antidote for that poison, Heldin."

"If you just admit defeat and go back, you can find the antidote directly."

Seemingly sensing Donley's dilemma, Drake shook off the dust and offered him words of comfort.

Venomous Fang, a poison-type physical move.

The effect is to attack the opponent with teeth, with a certain probability of causing the opponent to enter a state of severe poisoning.

The state of being highly poisonous is a more terrifying negative effect than being poisoned.

In the game, this means that as time goes on, a Pokémon's HP will be reduced by a maximum of 15/16 per turn.

In reality, the effects of a highly toxic state can cause unbearable pain to the poisoned person.

Clearly, even the battle-hardened Elbaf warrior Donley could not endure such pain.

"So this is also a tactic of the Straw Hat Pirates?"

Despite the excruciating pain, Dorry raised his head and was once again shocked by the methods Drake had demonstrated.

Moreover, although the two sides have only exchanged a few blows so far, as Drake said...

The outcome of this battle is already decided.

The deadly poison not only caused him unbearable pain, but also spread throughout his body at an extremely rapid pace.

Perhaps... the moment the toxin spreads throughout his body will be the moment he faces death.

However, compared to the giants' enormous bodies, the rate at which the toxin spread was not so fatal to him.

It's enough to last him at least a few more rounds of the duel!

Over the next ten minutes, Donli fully demonstrated to the world just how brave and fearless the warriors of Elbaf were when faced with dire circumstances.

Even though his pain was written all over his face, he was still able to wield his sword with one hand and fight the giant dinosaur on the other side to a standstill.

Suddenly, even many children watching TV began calling for him:

"Go for it, big brother with the beard!!!"

Unfortunately, the giants do not believe in light, let alone the existence of Ultraman.

Seeing that the deadly poison had spread to Dongli's body, Elder Yaru, worried that the poison would damage Dongli's internal organs, stepped forward and surrendered on Dongli's behalf.

[Elbaf Tournament, Match 1: Straw Hat crew X Drake wins!]

A huge virtual image appeared on the calm battlefield in the form of text.

On one side of the text is Drake, who has returned to his normal form.

After reverting to human form, his expression became aloof and serious, completely unlike his previous ferocious appearance with bloodshot eyes. It was hard to believe that he and the terrifying beast from before were the same person.

On the other side, naturally, was Dongli, who, upon hearing the word "surrender," completely lost all support and collapsed to the ground.

Some of the giants had already rushed to Dorry with the antidote given to them by Hajrudin.

Strangely enough, the antidote, which was only the size of a sesame seed for a giant, had an immediate and remarkable effect after entering Dorry's mouth.

The toxins that had covered almost half of his body disappeared in an instant.

With the second bottle of healing medicine in his mouth, Dongli, who had been extremely weak, stood up again, and his complexion instantly returned to normal.

This outrageous scene once again demonstrated to the world the Straw Hat Pirates' superb skills and power.

After the victory, Drake didn't say much. He nodded to the giants on the other side and then returned to the Straw Hat formation with a cold expression.

"Hehehe, well done, Drake!"

As the commander-in-chief of this operation, Moria praised it lavishly.

Drake merely nodded slightly and coldly returned to the group.

Although he secured a victory for the Straw Hat crew, the kind of win he had just achieved was really nothing to him.

Drake's special ability is a strong jaw.

Compared to the characteristics of others who can easily create bug-like effects, his characteristic is quite ordinary, only increasing the biting force of his mouth.

But as the saying goes, there's always a way out.

Drake, who was initially envious of others' powerful abilities, was taken to the Pokémon world by Red to level up...

To his surprise, he discovered that he could learn almost all bite-type Pokémon moves.

Red told him at the time that...

It's probably because his animal form is very similar to Baby Tyranitar in the Pokémon world that he can learn all the moves that Baby Tyranitar can learn.

Drake had no idea who Baby Tyrannosaurus was.

But all he knew was that he could learn any biting move, regardless of its attribute.

Furthermore, after becoming a Pokémon, these moves can be permanently recorded in one's body.
