Arceus' Pirate Journey

"That's really difficult... But Miss Onihime, if I'm lucky enough to win the championship, it shouldn't be a problem for me to just eat the fruit, right?"

"It doesn't matter. If you have the ability, just go for it."

Helding did not officially join, he was just a affiliated mercenary, but he was still half one of them, so he was still polite to Yamato, his half-boss.

Even though he was defeated in one move last time, his fighting spirit has not been extinguished. It seems that even if he meets Yamato directly in the ring, he will fight with all his might.

"Hahaha, it's really lively here. Do you mind if I join in the fun?"

An old man with a pointed haircut came here with a group of men. He was Green Pepper from the Kingdom of Flowers.

But he is different from Hailding. Hailding is an employee that Yamato hired himself, so he is more familiar with him. The intersection between Qingjiao and Baishou is that Zeraora helped him beat back the cone head.

Although after that, Qingjiao said that he would bring the Babao Navy to help Zeraora find what they wanted, but so many years have passed, fate has not taken care of Qingjiao, and he has not gained anything.

The reason I came here this time was just because I noticed Yamato.

"How is Lord Zeraora? I was very grateful to him back then, but it's a pity that I haven't seen him again in all these years."

Qingjiao's logic is very strange. The thing he values ​​most is his cone head. No matter what someone has done before, as long as someone can help him get his cone head back, he will be his benefactor.

However, Zeraora didn't take this matter to heart. It was just a misunderstanding at the beginning, and Qingjiao was so polite that he felt embarrassed.

He had no intention of maintaining a relationship with an old man, so they had no interaction over the years, so that most people in the Beast World had no impression of Qingjiao.

Except for Robin, she had some understanding of most people as she had traveled among various forces on the sea in those years.

"Cone Green Pepper, leader of the Flower Kingdom's Eight Treasures Navy. Before he retired, his bounty was 5 million. When he was young, he fought against Garp for a while. He seemed to have had some interactions with Zeraora a few years ago."

When Yamato was confused about who the old man who came up to her was, Robin whispered in her ear about the other party's identity, and that he was already half a friendly force.

"I see a lot of familiar faces here, all of them are famous guys on the sea. If everyone's goal is to get the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, why don't we unite and drive the others away?

Of course, I am not very interested in the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, but I have not found what Master Zeraora wants for so many years, so I want to use this as compensation."

"Robin, are you sure he has fought with Garp? That's too honest..."

Looking at Qingjiao's kind smile, Yamato felt that she was like an old lady selling tea in Baiwu, and not a wanted criminal at all, but Qingjiao's subsequent words changed her mind.

"But... I saw in the newspaper that Straw Hat Boy Luffy seems to have arrived here as well. If you meet him, please let him go to me. Sorry for the trouble."

Chapter 1184: A New World Greeting

Qingjiao can’t be said to have a very good personality. Although she will always remember the kindness shown to her by her head, the same is true for hatred.

At that time, Garp knocked off his proud cone-shaped head with one punch, causing Green Pepper to suffer for many years.

He couldn't defeat Garp, so this hatred extended to Garp's descendants.

As a former pillar of the Babao Navy, Qingjiao is capable of analyzing the situation.

First, during the Battle of Marineford, the identities of Luffy and Ace as brothers, and the identities of Garp and Luffy as grandfather and grandson were made public.

Then, Whitebeard's Tremor-Tremor Fruit reappeared. The Whitebeard Pirates would never let this fruit be taken away by others, especially Ace, who caused the war.

The latest news about Luffy is that he has formed an alliance with Law in Punk Hazard. Qingjiao believes that there is a great probability that he will meet Luffy here to help his brother.

The Eight Treasures Navy and the New Giant Pirates are not as obedient to the Beasts as the affiliated pirate groups, but they are still forces close to this side. It is a good idea to form a temporary alliance with them by taking advantage of the connection with the Beasts, but Yamato himself has no interest in this.

"No, it all depends on your ability. Just do your best when the time comes. If you want the fruit, there's no need to show mercy."

Are you kidding? Her emergency asylum was to avoid disaster. The Tremor-Tremor Fruit was not a sufficient excuse. If she relied on the help of others, she would have more troubles when she returned.

"You guys go ahead, I'm going to play here for a while, see you later."

After saying this, he ended this temporary team building and left with his people. In the dark, the people of the Don Quixote family also recorded all of this.

"Giant Mercenary Hailding, the Eight Treasures Navy and the Hundred Beasts are related and cannot be moved."

The seemingly fair competition was actually full of shady dealings. Even before the competition started, undercurrents had already begun to surge.

Yamato was not in a hurry to rush to the bullfighting arena. As far as she knew, the match would last for a long time and she could still enjoy the holiday.

Taking refuge is taking refuge, but taking a vacation during the process is also an important goal for her.

"By the way, are any of you going to participate in the competition?"

Yamato looked at the others behind him. Robin was the first to express that she had no interest in this, followed by Ulti, who said she didn't want to participate in such boring fights.

Hearing Ulti say this, Page One immediately became interested.

"Yamato-sister, I want to participate in the competition."

"What? Xiao Pei, you actually like this kind of childish stuff. Then I will reluctantly accompany you to participate in the competition. I will kill all the guys who get in the way for you."

"Um...I suddenly don't want to participate in the competition anymore..."

A back-and-forth battle occurred between Ulti and Page One. Judging from the current situation, it was impossible for Page One to get rid of Ulti, and eventually she became her partner on the field.

Speed, Mizeka and Solitia also chose to participate in the competition in the end. They couldn't just stand there and watch while their eldest daughter went up to fight.

When Yamato and his crew had just decided on their future plans, Luffy was disguising himself for the competition, but suddenly he remembered that he came here with a plan and it would not be a good idea to expose himself rashly, so he started to stick a beard on his face in front of Ace.

After some dressing up, a gladiator named Lucy appeared.

"Luffy, what are you doing?"

"Ace, please call me Lucy now. I am not Luffy now, but a gladiator who came to help you."

"Ace, your brother is really interesting. But Ace's brother, this is not a child's game, so don't be a burden to others when the time comes."

Looking at Luffy who was like a child, Marco made a joke.

"No way, I have been practicing hard in the past two years, I will definitely be able to help Ace!"

"Let's talk about this later. First, I'll take you to see the opponents in this arena. I just saw quite a few troublesome opponents."

Holding down the slightly excited Luffy, Ace planned to observe the enemy situation first. In two years, he had become much more stable. The death of Whitebeard had changed him a lot, and he was no longer as reckless as before.

In order to successfully get the fruit back, he must be fully prepared.

As they were leaving, there was a burst of excited panting from a corner. A guy with green-haired cockscomb had a flushed face, as if he had seen something extraordinary.

"Hehahaha! Luffy-senpai! It's Luffy-senpai! He finally shows up again, yay!"

Bartolomeo, the captain of the Barto Club and a huge fan of Luffy.

The reason why he became a fan of Luffy was because he saw Luffy's feat in Rogue Town two years ago. Just this one time made him deeply attracted to Luffy.

But unlike the original timeline, news about Luffy became rare after that, which led to Luffy's popularity decreasing and Bartolomeo becoming an even rarer fan.

After all, compared to those guys who became famous, he was just a fan of an unknown little pirate. This situation only changed after the Battle of Marineford.

"Luffy-senpai is here to compete too... No, I have to prove myself! Here comes the bullfighting arena!"

Bartolomeo rushed towards the bullfighting arena with a pace even more ruthless than Doflamingo, and a green afterimage blew away many people on both sides of the road.

He was originally the gang leader of Rogue Town, with a volatile and cruel personality. The bounty of 150 million Baileys meant his status as a supernova, but he also had another notoriety - the real-time ranking of the pirates who most wanted to disappear.

In terms of being disliked, Bartolomeo has reached the top.

......

Soon after, the bullfighting arena was filled with spectators.

"Dear gentlemen, ladies, and toys present! Today's grand ceremony will surely go down in history!"

On the arena stage, Gaz, the host, was introducing the match situation.

This was originally a place where sword fighters practiced their sword skills, but since Doflamingo came to power, it has become a place of pure mutual slaughter and sensationalism, filled with an atmosphere of blood and violence.

But it is this kind of violence that attracts more attention.

Everyone says they don’t like violence, but who doesn’t like to watch it? This is a statement from a fighter in a fighting arena.

"For today's grand occasion, our King took out his treasure! He gave this rare treasure directly to us!

The Tremor-Tremor Fruit belongs to Edward Newgate, the former Four Emperors and the strongest man in the world, who died in the war two years ago!

He can create tsunamis with a wave of his hand, and destroy islands with anger. The strongest superhuman ability has now been transformed into a devil fruit, and it is here! "

With the help of the loudspeaker of Den Den Mushi, Gaz's voice spread throughout the entire bullfighting arena, and his every word would cause cheers from the audience.

"Today, under the call of His Majesty the King, the warriors of the New World have gathered in this arena. There are also other applicants who think they are extraordinary. They will fight in different areas, and those who make it out of the siege will get the right to challenge!

Due to the large number of participants, the rules have been changed this time. There are eight divisions in total. The top two in each division will advance to the finals. The final champion will be determined by these sixteen people. But before that, there will be a knockout round first!"

......

The host left the stage and the contestants came on, and within a few minutes, the competition in Area A was ready.

"Except for myself, everyone is my enemy. Death, falling off the field, and losing the ability to fight will all be considered failures. Let's see which two people can stand to the end!

By the way, I would like to remind all the newcomers that there are schools of betta fish in the sea water surrounding the arena waiting for people who fall into the water.

Now, the 188-player elimination match in Zone A officially begins!"

Following Gaz's signal, the fighting in the arena has officially begun. The gladiators carrying simple protective gear and weapons attacked the enemies on the side without saying a word.

Less than a minute after the battle started, a large number of contestants died, and some of those who stood out fell directly into the surrounding sea, instantly attracting the attack of fighting fish.

On the surrounding arena, Luffy was watching the fight with Ace and the others.

"Ace, they don't look very powerful."

"The powerful guy hasn't made a move yet. Dad's fruit is not something that anyone can get their hands on. These people who don't know their own strength are living examples.

See that person with the scarf? Lu...Lucy."

"I see. What's wrong, Ace?"

"That guy is the tough one, Katakuri, BIG MOM's son and the strongest general of the BIG MOM Pirates.

Besides him, there are many tough guys up there, but they just haven't taken action yet."

In addition to the monsters in the New World, Doflamingo also attracted many guys who have little strength but extremely huge ambitions.

At this time, the A zone arena had been divided into several parts, with hundreds of people fighting in the middle, but those with more ideas occupied the edges.

"The fishman Haku knocked down his opponent with one blow! Yin Lizabello II's army was besieged, and it doesn't look good... Wait... The three brothers from the Big Mom Pirates are finally taking action!"

Gaz explained with all his might, and his impatient tone made people worry that he might suffocate to death.

"Brother Katakuri, aren't you going to take another look?"

“There’s no need. There are no opponents worth paying attention to in the arena. I’ve already seen the boring future. The difficult guys are all in the stands. There’s no need to waste time.

Dave, Owen, take these guys out, but don't expose too much."

"As you wish, Katakuri-nii."

Daifuku took the first step. He rubbed his hands around his waist, and a blue djinn holding a naginata, like the genie in Aladdin's lamp, emerged from his waist. It seemed to be an independent individual, but it was connected to Daifuku by a wisp of faint steam.

Daifuku is the user of the Parahuman-type Evaporation Fruit and is a magic lamp himself, but he cannot make wishes and can only summon lamp spirits to fight on his behalf.

"Go, Demon Slayer!"

At Dafu's command, the lamp spirit swung the long sword forward, and a clean fan-shaped area was immediately cleared in front of him. All the players within Dafu's attack range lost their combat effectiveness under this blow.

Seeing that his brother had already taken action, Owen was not to be outdone. His hands began to heat up and his body gradually turned red. He was the user of the Parahuman Heat-Heat Fruit, which allowed him to quickly heat up his body and change the temperature of objects he touched.

"Hot Wind Fist!"

With a wave of his sword, the air suddenly became hot, and then turned into a burning stream sweeping forward. After two attacks, only a few players were left on the field in Area A...

Chapter 1185 Those Who Have Seen the World and Those Who Have Not Seen the World

"It seems that they are not all trash, there are still a few decent guys, Katakuri-nii."

After one strike, 90% of the people in Zone A were cleared out, with only a very small number of people still staying on the stage.

"One...one strike! The two of them cleared out most of the contestants with one strike! It looks like this will be the match that takes the least time in the bullfighting arena. Is this the strength of the sons of the Sea Emperor?!

Only the murloc fighter Haku, Yin Lizabello II's army and a few others managed to hold on under this attack. It seems that the winner of Area A has already been locked in!

I didn’t expect that such a full-scale fight would end so quickly, but don’t worry, because there are at least seven more exciting games today, even if we don’t count the finals! ”

The expansion of five games to eight was roughly reserved based on the information of the contestants.

The number of people that the arena can accommodate is limited. Each round can only accommodate about two hundred people at most. If there are more, people near the edge will be bitten by the fighting fish before the game even starts.

And there is another problem - human relations.

Just by looking at the list, Doflamingo could guess who would advance almost exactly. Letting those monsters fight each other and consume each other was the way to increase his own chances of winning, but Doflamingo did not do that.
