Arceus' Pirate Journey

But even if Laidfield held back, Diamante, who was hit by the blow, still fell into the water.

"Mr Diamanti actually lost!

B...B Zone winners Lai De and Rebecca, rescue team! Go save him, Mr. Diamanti can't swim!

"

Chapter 1189 Is Kaido a Fool or a Bastard?

The fighting fish in the water are dangerous, but not impossible to deal with, and Diamanti's reputation is still very high today.

Seeing Diamante fall into the water, many soldiers of the Don Quixote family jumped into the water. Under alternating cover, they rescued Diamante from the water, preventing this person with special abilities from sinking to the bottom and drowning.

"Mr. Diamante was defeated! His previous battles have helped others, which is a pity. The nameless old man Lai De and the cursed princess Rebecca finally advanced. The competition in Zone C will begin soon. Please don't be anxious."

Although the audience booed and were dissatisfied with Rebecca's advancement, Gaz still loudly announced the result that had become a fact.

If Rebecca hadn't been hated by everyone here, Gaz would definitely have congratulated her.

Although Rebecca's promotion was decided by Ledfield, she also demonstrated her sword dance in the previous battle. From beginning to end, she was not injured by anyone, nor did she hurt anyone.

That was enough to earn Gaz’s respect as a host.

It was precisely because of Rebecca's fighting habit that she became an outlier in this arena that advocated bloodshed. The audience who originally wanted to watch people fighting were also very dissatisfied with this, which indirectly led to a further decline in Rebecca's reputation.

Even though Rebecca was used to verbal abuse, she still felt uncomfortable when she heard it, but not this time.

[It's not impossible to help you defeat Doflamingo...]

The playful fight easily killed Diamante in seconds, which made Rebecca realize that the previous words were not a joke, and the old man in front of her really had that ability.

"Let's go. What are you standing there for? Since I said that it will be you and me who advance, it won't be anyone else. Let's talk about it later. It's time to make room for other young people."

"Old man, who are you?"

"Who? Just an old man abandoned by the times. You can just call me Lai De, but decades ago on the sea I was called Lai De Field."

Rydfield smelled a hint of desire in Rebecca's heart. Previously, she could be understood as not believing it, so she didn't have any ideas. Rydfield really wanted to see what changes would happen to Rebecca after seeing his abilities.

However, Defield could determine from Rebecca's inner thoughts that she did not know him, so the effectiveness was much worse.

......

"No... Impossible, that guy is... That guy is from Defield. Why would that Lone Red come to participate in such a competition?!"

In addition to the audience seats, the battle on the field can also be seen from the preparation seats. In addition to Marco and Katakuri, there is another knowledgeable person here - Buggy.

An underage princess like Rebecca has never heard of the name of the Red Earl, but it is different for Bucky.

"Lone Red? Captain Buggy, what is that?"

"That was when I was a trainee on Captain Roger's ship. He had dealt with Captain Roger and Uncle Rayleigh at that time. He was a very difficult monster..."

The threat posed by the Red Earl is very special. He is alone and does not have a large fleet, so he will not cause a large-scale battle. However, his carefree and casual attitude also causes headaches for the World Government.

Buggy still remembered that when the Golden Jackson encountered the Red Earl, there was a brief confrontation between the Red Earl and Roger, but a ceasefire was declared not long after.

The Red Earl also briefly participated in the banquet on the ship. After chatting with Roger for a few words, he drank a glass of wine and disappeared without a trace, and there was no trace of him since.

Just a glance made Bucky feel that he had no secrets in front of the other party, which made him remember Laidfield vividly.

"It's better to give up the game after all... Hey! What are you doing?!"

Bucky's eyes widened as he watched his younger brother throw a bunch of information into the registration box.

"Oh, sorry, Captain Buggy, I was too excited. You should come in person for this kind of thing."

"Yes, yes, after all, you are the one who is going to challenge the legend, but the Pirate King, Pluto Rayleigh, the Lone Red, there are too many legendary characters you mentioned, and I threw them in when I got excited."

There is no compulsory participation in the bullfighting arena. If he wants, Bucky can choose to escape, but the problem is that he will lose face.

At this moment, he perfectly demonstrated what it meant to die with dignity and suffer in life, and he had to prepare for a fight.

At the same time, after the competitions in Area A and Area B ended one after another, Yamato and his party roughly ended their trip in Dressrosa and came to the bullfighting arena.

When they arrived here, they just saw the end of the game and also saw Laidfield's final shot.

"This old man is so strong. That move should have the power of a thunderous second or third hexagram. It seems that this competition is more interesting than I thought. This way it will be easier to deal with that bastard dad when I go back."

Most players would prefer that the contestants be weaker, but Yamato is an exception. Only if the quality of this match is high enough can she perform better.

Even if he gets back the Tremor-Tremor Fruit by simply bullying the weak, Kaido will probably use it as a reason for special training.

"You are so proud of defeating those weaklings. It seems that you have fallen!"

Yamato could imagine the scene where Kaido said such words while wielding the Eightfold Path to attack.

If we can make some big news, I guess we can keep quiet for two days.

"No, I don't think there is any difference."

The one who refuted Yamato was not Robin, but Ulti.

"My dear daughter, it seems that you have become stronger again. Let's practice again, Thunder Bagua!"

Ulti pinched her throat to imitate Kaido's voice, and then punched Yamato.

Due to the height difference, Ulti's punch only hit Yamato's stomach. Although it did not hurt Yamato, it shattered her fantasy.

"Damn it, don't let reality destroy me! Can't I just lie to myself?!"

"It's useless. That idiot Kaido won't let you go. You know that."

Yamato is one of the ones who dares to call Kaido by his name and give him strange nicknames, and the second is Ulti, but Kaido's reaction is different.

He didn't care about Ulti's child, his old friend, at all, but for Yamato, he always found ways to "educate" him.

"He's not a fool, he's a jerk!"

"What difference does it make? No matter if you're an idiot or a jerk, they'll find a reason to beat you up in the end."

The tsundere, who should have been naturally restrained, fought back, and did it twice in a row. It was Robin who ended the meaningless debate between the two. After all, being scheming is at the top of the restraint chain.

"Okay, these are the general players in this competition. There are only a few who are worth paying attention to. Take a look."

While Ulti and Yamato were fighting, Robin was not doing nothing. A lot of arms with eyes appeared in a secret place in the bullfighting arena. It was Robin who used the Hana-Han-Yan Fruit to detect the enemy.

"As for that old man... he should be the biggest rival. The Red Earl came to Defield, a pirate of the same era as Roger. To be honest, if he was a few years younger, Mr. Kaido might also be interested in him."

It may sound cruel to say this, but there are seven of them in the group. Even if we add Speed ​​and Solitia who have signed up, the combined intelligence of the six of them may not be as good as Robin alone.

Robin was even more impressed by these famous strong men, and he quickly determined their identities through the pattern on the Riderfield umbrella.

Then he briefly told Yamato about his life, allowing Yamato's fantasy that was shattered by Ulti to be rebuilt.

"Okay, that's him. As long as he fights well in the final, he can at least survive for a few days when he returns."

"I still think that you should master the power in your body as soon as possible. According to your current situation, unless you completely defeat Mr. Kaido or you reach a point that satisfies Lord Arceus in advance, the best you can do is delay it."

"It's not that easy. My godfather has been acting strangely over the past few years. Sometimes he's very lenient with me, and sometimes he's even stricter than that bastard dad. It's not easy to communicate with him in Xiram either. It's hard."

While Yamato was lamenting his bumpy future, Speed ​​and others who had signed up also completed their tasks.

"My lady, it's done. You are in Group H, Lady Ulti and Lady Page One are in Group G, and the three of us are in Group E. If today's competition continues at this pace, it won't be long before it's our turn."

Yamato and others who entered the venue as spectators did not attract the attention of the audience. After all, their attention was focused on the contestants. The attacks of Radfield and Diamante destroyed most of the ring, which had just been rebuilt through Pica's ability.

Diamante's failure was something the Don Quixote family had not expected. Doflamingo was busy with Law's affairs, so the remaining cadres had no choice but to accept this result and initiate Plan B.

There was no chance for him to get the fruit, so he could only give it to the beasts. At least the loss would be minimized if this "ally" got the fruit.

That's why Speed ​​and his teammates were divided into three groups to ensure the greatest probability of advancement.

Only Katakuri in the promotion area noticed Yamato's arrival. He had just noticed the arm that Robin had grown for reconnaissance, and he followed the clues and found Yamato and others.

"The Demon Princess of Beasts... This game is more complicated than I thought..."

BIG MOM and the beasts do not have a real alliance. The relationship between them is as fragile as paper. When there are no conflicts, they can sit down and drink tea, but when there are interests worth fighting for, no one will give up voluntarily.

Katakuri didn't understand the current strength of Radfield, he just thought that he was already an old man in his twilight years and maybe he could still deal with him if he could delay it a bit.

In Katakuri's eyes, Yamato in his prime was even more threatening than Radfield.

"Is that little girl so worthy of your vigilance? Charlotte Lingling's son?"

Chapter 1190 Old Things

The Don Quixote family prepared sixteen chairs in a special area for those who advanced to the finals to rest.

At this time, Katakuri and Owen occupied two chairs, and Daifuku sat on the slightly lower chair behind them.

Although there were still many empty seats, they instinctively followed some rules, such as leaving the seats empty for the winners.

"You are so powerful and domineering. I can't relax for a moment when facing you..."

Radfield's mind-reading ability is also part of Observation Haki, and will also be resisted by Haki. Red Hair's Observation Haki can effectively prevent himself from being seen through by others with Observation Haki.

Katakuri does not have the ability to kill with observation, but his own observation Haki attainments are not enough to be seen through by Radfield.

The weaker the person, the easier it is for Lydfield to read his memory. However, for people with strong Observation Haki and who are on guard, his mind reading is not so smooth. He can see the thoughts in front of him, but not the memories of the past.

After all, when Observation Haki fights against Observation Haki, the manifestation is more like mutual cancellation.

If the two people's observation Haki levels are similar, it is equivalent to neither of them having observation Haki, and they continue to fight as usual.

Instead of sitting there staring at each other, trying to see who can predict more images.

However, this point is mainly reflected in the prediction of inner thoughts and the anticipation of the next attack. If you only sense the position, there are not many people you can completely hide your breath from.

Katakuri remembered that Charlotte Linlin had mentioned Radfield's ability, so he was very careful about this matter after coming here. However, when he saw Yamato, he was distracted for a moment, allowing Radfield to seize the opportunity and see what he was thinking.

"Of course an old man has to have some old man's methods. Your mother has become the emperor of the sea. Her physical strength gave me a headache at the beginning.

I may have to visit her in the near future, after all, the position of Pirate King needs the stone in her hand."

"Ladfield, you are no longer the lonely red of the past."

Youth is an asset after all. Compared to Ratfield, Charlotte Linlin looks much younger. Katakuri doesn't think that the current Ratfield can beat his mother.

"Well, you're right. It's time to say goodbye to my former arrogance, but to be honest, I quite like that name."

In the end, Katakuri chose to leave first. He was under a lot of pressure facing such an old monster who spoke strangely. His goal was the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, not to have a conflict with Radfield now.

Even if he left his words about going to Cake Island, the decision would have to be left to Charlotte Lingling. An opponent of this level was worthy of Charlotte Lingling's personal action.

When facing Lydfield at close range, Katakuri needs to remain highly concentrated.

This state was not conducive to the next battle, so he chose to stay away from here temporarily.

After the three Katakuri brothers left, only Radfield and Rebecca were left here, and Radfield also asked the same question.

"Well, how have you considered it?"

"I...I'm sorry, I don't want to be a pirate, but if possible, can you help me defeat Doflamingo? I can pay any price."

"Little girl, being able to pay any price and not wanting to be a pirate are contradictory statements. Besides, you can't give me anything I want right now."

Rebecca's answer was not what Ledfield wanted to hear most, but it made him satisfied. Rebecca didn't know that he had the ability to read minds.

Even if she didn't want to be a pirate, she could choose to lie to him first, but she didn't. This kind of honesty is exactly what Laidfield likes.

"What a shame. Let's wait until the competition is completely over. But, do you know anything about the beasts?"

"No, I just know that they are the backers behind Doflamingo..."

"Is that so? I'll go for a walk, and you can think about what I said again. Sometimes a change of life might be a good thing."

As he spoke, Laidfield also disappeared here. He was going to help Padon prepare some things and collect some information along the way.

Because he had always been a lone ranger in the past, Lydfield himself was very versatile. He knew a little bit about navigation, medicine, and cooking. His versatility was comparable to that of Quinn. After all, he did not trust anyone at that time and could only rely on himself for everything.

Gathering intelligence is naturally an important part. He originally thought that this competition was just a game, but now it seems that there is more than one interesting opponent.

......

The competition in the bullfighting arena continued. Diamanti's defeat made the audience sad for a while, but they were soon attracted to the competition again, and Gaz began to commentate again.

"The competition in Zone C is extremely fierce! Phoenix Marco! Fire Fist Ace! Diamond Joz! All three are members of the Whitebeard Pirates and are also Whitebeard's sons!

They seem determined to obtain this ability that once belonged to Whitebeard, and anyone who dares to stop them will be attacked mercilessly by them!

It appeared! It's Fire Fist Ace's famous skill - Fire Fist! "

The fist made of raging fire slammed down on Pica's newly built ring, and the flames immediately swept across most of the venue.
