After nearly a week of elimination rounds, the ‘Top 100 Players’ of the first Ten Thousand Worlds Combat Power Competition were finally announced, and were announced to hundreds of millions of viewers in the four worlds through a public live broadcast in charge of the Media Department.
Mukai Onimatsuji, Ben Beckman, Jesus Bu, Amata Mima, Levi Ackerman, Mie Huo, Uzuru Tengen, Tokitoru Muichiro, Immortal Kawa Saneya and others were on the list without any surprise.
but.
Creek and Aaron, two bastards of humans and fishmen, as well as the latter's two friends Croobie and Jiu, were also lucky enough to defeat their respective opponents and become the "Top 100" without any danger.
one of them.
Xiao Ba and several other murlocs had no choice but to return home. As for the hundreds of subordinates that Creek had brought before, they had long since died in the previous auditions.
Next, they will take a flying warship of the Air Force to 'Elbaf', which is located in the second half of the Grand Route.
Then in the legendary kingdom of giants, a final 'one-on-one ranking match' will be held to determine everyone's final ranking!
The few days on the way are the time left for them to repair.
Naval Headquarters, Marinevando.
[Dong dong dong]
When the knock on the door rang, Sengoku withdrew his eyes from the 'Top 100 Players List' on the virtual screen, and pressed the button on the back of the video phone bug, causing it to retract the light projected through its eyes.
"come in."
"Excuse me, Marshal of the Warring States Period."
I saw an unusually tall, rugged man wearing a purple kimono, with short black hair and a beard around his mouth. He had wooden shoes on his feet and a cane sword across his waist. He gently opened the door and walked in.
Warring States looked at the other party with a gentle attitude and smiled.
"I invited you, why would you bother me? Please sit down, Your Excellency Yixiao."
"Then, I'm sorry."
Yixiao replied politely, and then sat on the wide chair opposite the desk, but his appearance was very different from that in the 'original work'.
First of all, he looks much younger. Secondly, there are no 'X' shaped scars on his face, and not only are his eyes not blind, but they are bright and sharp.
"The main reason I asked you to come to this meeting is because I heard that you want to stay at the Navy Headquarters and don't want to go to other branches of the military. Can you ask why?"
When Warring States said this, his eyes and tone became more and more kind, and the smile on his face couldn't help but feel that the other person looked so pleasing to the eye.
Regardless of whether he succeeds in the end or not, Seng Guo will be happy to take care of him just by smiling at his attitude.
"Because I have learned in advance that during the world government's conquest of other worlds, the navy's main responsibility, compared to the army and air force, is to stay at home and be responsible for maintaining the safety and order of the sea stars."
"."
When Yixiao finished speaking, the smile on Zeng Guo's face had already frozen there. He subconsciously thought that the other party was mocking himself and the navy.
Fortunately, he is not impulsive.
Warring States immediately noticed that Yixiao's attitude was very serious, and there was no joke or other bad expression on his face, and then he asked with some confusion: "Is it because you don't want to participate in the war against other worlds that you don't want to join the Army and Air Force?
"
"exactly."
Yixiao nodded calmly.
"I originally didn't want to join the army, but that day when I saw the scene of giant troops from other worlds passing through the star gate and pouring into our world, I realized that in the future, not only the world government will invade other worlds, but other worlds may also invade.
Come into our world.”
"After much thought, I feel that I have no ability to stop the world government from stopping its conquest of other worlds, and I don't want our world to be invaded by other worlds, so I should try my best to use my power to protect our homeland."
After listening to these two passages, Warring States' mood was very complicated.
I don't want to invade other worlds, I just want to protect my own world, so I choose to join the Navy Headquarters. This is Yixiao's idea.
to be honest.
Warring States felt that Yixiao was very naive and idealistic.
If you join the navy, you don't have to participate in the war against other worlds?
How is it possible that there are several other worlds without oceans?
After Yixiao joins the navy, as long as he doesn't disobey orders, he will one day become an intruder from another world, because he has become a soldier!
but
Warring States does not hate Yixiao's innocence and rationality, but rather appreciates it. Because he can't do it himself, he appreciates it. Over the years, he has long carved the four words "obey orders" deep in his soul.
.
Therefore, in the "future" of the original work, he personally issued the order to kill O'Hara for the orders of the Five Old Stars. It was also for the orders of the Five Old Stars that he agreed to conceal the big prison break in Impel Down City.
In fact, compared to Sakaski, Warring States is the real "court eagle dog". At least the former dared to run in front of the five old stars and directly scold and question him.
at the same time.
Maybe it was because I had the opportunity to face the powerful Admiral of the Navy, and I couldn't help but pour out the thoughts that had been stored in my heart for a long time with a smile.
"Two years ago, because I saw so many dirty and despicable people, I once had the idea of self-destruction in my heart. I thought that just not being able to see such a sinful world is a rare blessing."
"Until September 15th, 1498, I feel that I will never forget this day, because it is not only the day when the last World Conference was held, but also the legal day of Liberation Day."
"On the other side, at the World Conference, the World Government not only passed the 'Communique on the Establishment of Equal and Friendly Relations between Humans and the Mermaid Tribe and the Murloc Tribe', but also passed the even greater motion of 'Comprehensive Ban on Slave Trade and Comprehensive Liberation of World Slaves'!"
When he said this, Yixiao was obviously a little excited.
"I actually suspected that it was just a superficial form of propaganda."
"But when I used my own feet to visit each kingdom and island, and used my own eyes to witness countless slaves being removed from their chains and collars by the navy, I finally confirmed that the world government has really changed!"
"I arrived at the Chambord Islands again, and after seeing the beautiful scenery there, I decided to keep these eyes because I wanted to see more changes and a better world!"
Warring States did not interrupt him, but listened patiently, feeling the sincerity in the other person's words with his heart, and did not speak again until he finished speaking with a smile.
"I will report your ideas to the superiors and fully support you in staying in the Navy, but the outcome cannot be guaranteed because your gravity fruit ability can make objects fly, which is more suitable for the Air Force."
After hearing this, he frowned, his face full of self-blame.
"I was negligent. Mainly because when I was sparring with Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel that day, General Garp suddenly punched me. I felt a strong sense of crisis. I subconsciously controlled the stone slab under my feet and flew into the air to avoid it."
"???"
Three big golden question marks popped up on Warring States' head.
I knew that Fujitora's name was Yisheng, but after chatting with readers in the group, I found that most people were more familiar with the name Yixiao, so I decided to use Yixiao instead of Yisheng.
