After last night's negative distance treatment, "Rebecca's" complexion is particularly good, her fair skin is as moist as flowing water, and her physical condition is infinitely close to its peak level.
"Ye, have you noticed that there are fewer and fewer players in the arena...except for the players who have entered the finals in the first three areas, everyone else is gone."
"Probably everyone has gone home to prepare for the next competition."
Luo Jie muttered something nonsense.
He naturally knew that the missing players had actually fallen into a trap while doing injury checks and fell into the cage below the arena.
In fact, in the past, "JOKER Doflamingo" would not do such boring and stupid things. After all, the Colosseum is the cash cow of "Dressrosa". If every contestant comes to compete,
Being turned into a disposable consumable, I'm afraid it won't be long before the level of fighting competitions becomes street gangster fights.
Not to mention smashing the "Dressrosa" sign, the inexplicable appearance of the "Powerful Vacuum Zone" will definitely attract the attention of the world government.
You know, [Childlike Fruit]'s "collective forgetfulness" ability to erase the sense of existence would be extremely scary to anyone in power if they knew about it.
However, "Law" used "Caesar" as a hostage to force "Doflamingo" to step down as king and go to the Shichibukai, making "Doflamingo" realize that there will definitely be a battle in "Dressrosa" next.
In order to prevent these contestants with superior strength from taking the opportunity to cause trouble, "Doflamingo" will not hesitate to take such extreme measures to clear out all the strong men gathered here with one click.
As for why he is not killed directly, I can only say that "JOKER Doflamingo" does not want to become the public enemy of the world.
Many of the contestants who came to compete this time were sent by national forces, such as the Eight Treasure Navy from the Kingdom of Flowers, the "Fanku Brothers" from neighboring countries, the "White Horse Cavendish" from the Kingdom of Bruges, and Pro
"Elizabero II" of the Kingdom of Dens, etc.
If the effect of [Childlike Fruit] unexpectedly fails one day, "Doflamingo" will have a headache just to suppress the people of "Dressrosa" internally, and he will not be able to allocate his energy to deal with the people from several countries.
A large army was sent to conquer and leaving these people as hostages could at least leave a way out for themselves.
Rough horn sounds were heard from above the arena, and the audience's cheers, so enthusiastic that they were almost hoarse, could be heard faintly in the players' lounge.
More than a hundred players in Area D stood up from the bench one after another, with solemn expressions on their faces, picked up their weapons, and walked towards the sunlight at the end of the passageway of the venue.
In the center of the arena is a circular main arena with a diameter of 50 meters. There is an artificial river of more than ten meters between the edge of the arena and the auditorium. Artificially raised carnivorous fish swim in groups in the water, adding more excitement to the already exciting competition.
It adds a bit of bloody flavor.
The contestants are like beans that have been casually spilled, sparsely distributed on this huge arena with an area of 2,000 square meters, and their partners are at odds with each other, and they are vigilantly guarding every opponent around them.
In "Dressrosa", gladiators are like entertainment stars. Each professional gladiator has their own fans and supporters. From the moment all the players appear on the scene, there are all kinds of people shouting the names of the players.
The cheers of support echoed throughout the arena.
"Logan! Fight well! I'll spend 20,000 Baileys on you to win!"
"Meadows, teach those arrogant foreigners a lesson they will never forget!"
"Munai, let them see the horror of the curse!"
"Damascus, burn them!"
The loudest and loudest among them was the majority of the female audience in the auditorium - 90% of them came for "White Horse Cavendish".
"Ah~! So handsome! Even more handsome than the one on the wanted poster!"
"Cavendish! I love you!"
"Cavendish, I'm going to give you a monkey!"
"Ah, he's smiling at me!"
"Ugly people don't even look in the mirror! Cavendish is clearly smiling at me! Your Highness, look here, there are a pair of F's here!"
"White Horse Cavendish", who specially stood in the center of the ring, enjoyed the feeling of being in the spotlight. He kept waving the roses in his hand and showing off his iconic flashing smile 360 degrees to the audience. The girl was beautiful.
The screams of the women were getting louder and louder, and many people were even so excited that they fainted on the spot and were rushed away by medical staff.
In sharp contrast to the popular "White Horse Cavendish" is "Sword Princess Rebecca".
The moment she walked out of the contestants' tunnel, the audience could hear vicious curses from local residents, and some even threw all kinds of garbage and debris at her.
"Go to hell! The female cousin of the Riku royal family! The murderer!"
"Why aren't you dead yet? I've been playing every game of yours, just to see you beaten to death here!"
"You actually have the nerve to continue living in this world? Please commit suicide as soon as possible to apologize!"
Although this was not the first time "Rebecca" heard such a curse, she still couldn't help biting her lips, and her eyes under the helmet became increasingly gloomy.
"Don't worry about those ignorant people, just be yourself, I will always be by your side."
Luo Jie didn't care about the surprised looks from the audience, and took the initiative to hold "Rebecca's" hand. The tight body of the girl in golden bikini armor slowly relaxed, and she turned to Luo Jie and showed an extremely reassuring smile.
"D-area knockout—begin!"
With the sound of a loud gong, the telescopic channels on both sides slowly retracted, and the huge arena turned into an island isolated by the sea.
"Let's get rid of "Admiral Olumbus" together first!"
Most of the players present were experienced veterans, and they reached a tacit understanding without communicating in advance. More than a hundred burly men picked up the weapons in their hands and rushed towards the five-meter-tall blond bearded man.
.
The reason why they unanimously chose to eliminate "Admiral Orombus" first was not because this person was the greatest threat, but because of the partner he chose - "Pirate Mercenary Haldin".
The giants are born warriors. Even untrained children have terrifying combat capabilities that cannot be matched by adult humans. The huge body of an adult giant, which can easily reach more than 20 meters, is a big killer in a melee.
All the gladiators in the field knew very well that if "Pirate Mercenary Haildin" were to let go of the attack, except for the few masters on the field, I am afraid that the hundred or so of them tied together would not be enough to do this.
The giant fought alone.
Fortunately, this battle is a two-person battle. There is no need to directly face "Pirate Mercenary Haldin". You only need to defeat the opponent's partner "Admiral Orombus", and the despairing giant will be automatically lost.
Eligibility.
"You reckless bastards! Do you really think that my 148 million bounty is written in a nice way? - Stand at attention! Stand still!"
"Admiral Orombus" whipped out thunder-like whips from the whip in his hand, and his muscular body exuded an extremely terrifying aura with a loud roar. The gladiators with weaker willpower were thrown down as if they were collectively possessed.
The weapons stood at attention, and even those who could barely resist showed a brief hesitation.
——"The majesty of the admiral"!
A whip woven with iron wire rolled up the ankle of a gladiator, and was thrown to the ground by "Admiral Orombus" like a bowling ball amid the screams. The huge force hit a dozen gladiators who were still standing at attention along the way.
All the fighters were knocked away and fell into the seawater pool outside the ring one after another.
The pervasive smell of blood immediately attracted the artificially raised pocket betta fish, and these ferocious carnivorous fish immediately swarmed in and bit the gladiators who fell into the water.
"Help-help! Gollum!"
Athletes with good water skills could still endure the severe pain of having their flesh and blood gnawed away and struggle to climb up the shore. However, those players with poor water skills, or even those who couldn't swim at all, turned into swimmers after splashing in the red blood water for a while.
A bloody skeleton.
With this short time difference, the giant "Pirate Mercenary Haildin" also freed his hands from the restraints of several gladiators, and crossed half of the arena in one step to reach the side of "Admiral Olombus".
Lifting up his big feet the size of a carriage, he kicked away the gladiators besieging "Admiral Orombus" like a rat that was scurrying around the room, and then sent them to the hungry fighting fish.
There were dozens of tables of delicious meals.
Not all gladiators are obsessed with the group of "Admiral Orombus" and "Pirate Mercenary Haldin". Some of the gladiators who claim to be powerful have been eyeing "White Horse·
Cavendish" and other foreign seed players.
"What I hate the most is you, a pretty boy who relies on your good skin to seduce women. You can turn into an ugly monster like me!"
With a terrifying gas mask on his face and red burn scars all over his body, "Pyromaniac Damascus" rushed toward "White Horse Cavendish" as if he was crazy. His hands and wrists were completely broken, revealing the modified metal nozzles inside.
Two beams of flames with billowing black smoke and thick grease spurted out from it.
Several gladiators nearby were unable to dodge and were caught by the scorching flames. The severe pain burning their flesh made them roll on the ground, but they could not wipe off the burning grease on their bodies, so they had to grit their teeth and jump into the water.
, voluntarily abstained from voting to save his life.
"Spellman·Munai" who was in the same group as "Pyromaniac Damascus" also held up the bone staff in his hand and danced strangely, and wisps of wraith-like black energy rose from the ground like ropes.
Wrapped around the feet of "White Horse Cavendish".
"Is this the only level? It's impossible to fully display the beauty of my young master - Beautiful Sword Blue Bird!"
"White Horse Cavendish" did not panic, and casually threw away the rose that had never left his hand. The rapier at his waist was unsheathed like lightning, and the jet-black blade wrapped around "Armed Haki" whipped up a violent wind at an astonishing high speed.
, pouring all the incoming flames back.
The first one to bear the brunt of the attack was "Pyromaniac Damascus" who was covered in the grease he sprayed. His whole body instantly turned into a ball of burning fire. He screamed and ran towards the pool at the edge of the ring. Unfortunately, he was only a few meters away.
After exhausting all his strength, he fell to the ground and turned into a body of pitch-black charcoal that would last forever.
"Spellcaster Munai" was frightened and was in disarray. He waved his bone staff and fended off a few times in a panic, before being stabbed by "White Horse Cavendish"'s partner "Decapitation Slyman".
Cut off the ugly head covered with bird feathers.
On the other side, the famous killer group "Fanku Brothers" are engaged in a fierce battle with Dressrosa's gladiator stars "Rolyn Logan" and "Meadows".
The elder brother "Kelly Fanku" was short in stature, and his attacks were flexible and fierce. His superb combination punches allowed "Meadows", who was good at defense, to retreat step by step.
The younger brother "Bobby Fanku" is just the opposite. He is tall and burly and has a gifted body of steel. He can automatically neutralize violent attacks on his body. However, he has been weak-willed and not good at fighting since he was a child. At this moment,
"Lowling Logan" clumsily waved her fist after slashing with her long sword.
One couldn't cut, the other couldn't hit, and the battle between the two fell into a ridiculous stalemate.
"Bobby! Prepare to merge!"
"Kelly Fanku" punched away "Meadows" and then jumped into the air. His body became strangely two-dimensional and turned into a human leather jacket with a zipper in the middle.
This is also the basis for the two brothers to dominate the world of killers - [Jacket Fruit].
"Bobby Fanku" skillfully put on the human leather jacket, and "Kelly Fanku" immediately took over his body. The elder brother's strong fighting consciousness merged with the younger brother's steel body, plus the superhuman demon
With the increase in physical fitness given by the fruit, the combined "Fanku Brothers" immediately burst out with amazing fighting power. Without using any "dominance" at all, they smashed "Meadows" and "Rolyn Logan" with one punch.
” Two long swords entwined with “Armed Haki” were struck head-on.
Two gladiators with outstanding achievements vomited blood and were knocked out of the arena. They jumped directly across the pool where the fighting fish jumped, and fell into the audience unconscious, causing screams.
Not all gladiators like to attack the stronger one first.
While most of the players were still besieging "Admiral Olumbus", "White Horse Cavendish" and others, there were also a few gladiators with ulterior motives eyeing Luo Jie and "Sword Princess Rebecca"
"This group.
"Rebecca! Someone is offering a reward of 5 million Baileys on the black market to kill you, the remnant of the Riku royal family!"
"Boy, if you know what's going on, stay away! Otherwise, I'll kill you too!"
Four burly muscular men gathered around in a fan-like manner. One of them, a giant human with a height of five meters, brandished an ax and threatened Luo Jie fiercely. The other three swarmed up with spears, swords, and meteor hammers.
Using different distances and angles to present a perfect combined attack, it is obvious that the method of cracking "Rebecca's" "Back Water Sword Dance" has been studied for a long time.
Four taels to move a thousand catties is just an exaggeration. In fact, even if you have the best skills, if you want to move a thousand catties, you must have at least five hundred catties of strength.
"Sword Dance with Back Water" is almost perfect in terms of technique. Its only weakness is "Rebecca's" own strength. As long as the pressure superimposed in an instant exceeds the threshold of her strength, "Sword Dance with Back Water"'s almost perfect defense will immediately
Fall apart.
Luo Jie nonchalantly grabbed the oncoming ax with one hand, and a slender black shadow penetrated directly into the shadow at the feet of "Rebecca" along the gap between the stone slabs of the arena.
Under the stimulation of "Chicken Blood Overclocking", "Rebecca's" fair skin turned slightly crimson, and her body's strength suddenly increased by more than 30%.
In any close battle, let alone 30%, even an improvement of only 5% will be overwhelming to the result.
The already nimble "Rebecca" was as fast as a ghost at this moment. She lowered her head to avoid the roaring meteor hammer and slid around. She kicked the man holding the sword in the lower back, kicked him into the water, and struck the sword with her backhand.
The wooden pole holding the spear shaved off half of the palm of the man holding the spear.
The spear-wielding man who was in pain did not expect that "Rebecca"'s strength would suddenly increase. He covered the wound with his hand and reflexively retreated backwards. The man with the meteor hammer withdrew the iron chain, used his long weapon as a short weapon, and hit her from behind.
"Rebecca" tried to cover the retreat of her companions.
The golden broadsword in "Rebecca's" hand was suddenly dyed with a steel-like black color. She understood immediately and turned around to slash forward without hesitation. The black broadsword passed by like a hot knife cutting through butter.
, easily chopped the man-sized bolas and the two-meter-tall strong man into two diagonally. The body jumped out of the ring with blood and internal organs splattered, and was eaten by the swarm of fighting fish that gathered smelling the smell of blood.
Seeing that the three companions did not survive a round under "Rebecca", the muscular man who had just threatened Luo Jie was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he simply gave up the ax if it couldn't be used. He flew away as a bachelor.
Jump up and jump outside the ring.
If it were just an ordinary gladiator participating in the competition, he would be left alone, but this guy and the three who died just now were obviously assassins who planned to kill "Rebecca" in exchange for bounty. With Luo Jie's character, it is naturally impossible for him to let him go
Leaving so easily.
——"If you don't have a fist, you must have a way to travel"!
Luo Jie raised his hand and flexed his fingers slightly, and the muscular man who was about to land on the edge of the contestants' tunnel suddenly fell backwards in mid-air and fell headfirst into a pool full of fighting fish.
"ah--!"
The muscular man was covered in betta fish and swam frantically towards the shore. The oozing blood dragged a dark red trail in the turbid water.
Just when he was about to reach the stone steps on the shore, he accidentally turned around and suddenly found that Luo Jie actually bent his fingers towards him again.
"Ah——! The horse is lying in the grass——"
The muscular man screamed and was dragged back to the center of the pool again by invisible forces. He cursed hysterically and cried like a child weighing 600 to 700 kilograms. ()
