It was early summer, and there was still a hint of coolness in the sea breeze. Seagulls were passing by the pier in droves, and the flags hanging over the port were flapping in the wind.
The flag has a blue background with gold patterns, and a zipper that opens into a [V] shape is drawn in the center.
This huge port is berthed with ships of all sizes, and the dock is packed with people. What’s interesting is that the people at the port are made up of various nationalities and even races.
Here you can see the burly fish-men, the long-legged people with extremely long legs, the humanoid-like fur people, and even the giants that you must look up at! It seems that species from all over the world have gathered here
This huge and bustling port.
Residents passing by were not surprised. Not only did they stop and watch, some even found their idols in the crowd like star chasers and asked them to sign autographs for them.
Yes, those who come here are all well-known bounty hunters. They spend huge sums of money and a lot of time, and are willing to take risks and cross the dangerous sea, just to come to this island to participate in a trial that is like a pilgrimage.
"'Little Chain Knife' Don Turn, you actually managed to reach Yestedern alive. It's a blessing from God."
Among the endless crowds at the port, a mustachioed man wearing a gorgeous floral hat and a bright red robe twirled his beard and said sadly to a strong man in front of him.
The strong man was 3 meters tall. His head was shaved to show off his green skin. His bare upper body had bulging muscles. Both his left and right arms and even his neck were covered with dark blue totem tattoos. Only his chest and
His back was empty. A chain rolled into two circles hung from his waist, and at the end of the chain was a sickle blade exposed with cold light.
The strong man known as "Little Chain Knife" Don Turn looked at the flower-hatted mustache and said in a sullen voice: "You are still alive, Mo... Mo Salle. Were you not killed on that Jiao Island before?"
Were those pirates hacked to death?"
The mustache in the flower hat broke several beards in excitement, which made his eyes twitch in pain: "My name is Mozart, not Mosallo! And why don't you call me by the title 'Devil Saxophone'? Use your title when addressing others.
It’s the most basic etiquette, you rude guy! Also, you must have remembered wrongly, I have never been to any Red Pepper Island, nor have I been chased around by the Thunderbolt Poker Pirates!"
"No, I remember very clearly that you were so scared..." Before Dont'en could finish his words, he was interrupted by Mozart, the "Devil Saxophone", speaking with excitement.
"Are we talking about Red Pepper Island!? Since we came to this 'City of Yesterday' today, we must have the same goal!"
"...Hunter Association Qualification Selection." There was a hint of nervousness on the strong man Don Turn's dull face: "It is said that there were casualties among candidates in the previous sessions, and there were not many actual candidates. I hope I can be selected successfully.
"
"There will definitely be casualties. After all, it is clearly written in this brochure - [Contestants who do not have a certain ability to protect themselves are very likely to face life threats. For the sake of the safety of the contestants, please be cautious.
Please consider before signing up.]”
Mozart, with a mustache in a flower hat, raised the thin booklet in his hand. There was only a big [V] printed on the cover of the book: "Those who finally obtained the [Hunter Qualification] in the first five sessions were without exception all strong men."
The strongest one among them. And have you really thought about it? When registering, contestants have to choose a 'tendency'. I plan to register for the relatively rare 'Music Hunter', and you can only compete with the general public for places.
A precious 'bounty hunter', right?"
Dont'en scratched the back of Ban Cun's head and said naively: "Actually, I am also very confident in my cooking skills. My grandma asked me to try to compete in the 'Food Hunter'. She said that contestants who choose this direction should be more competitive.
few."
Mozart, who had a mustache, looked at Don Turn up and down with a strange expression, and said after a long time: "Can't you tell, you look so fierce and evil, but you actually have good cooking skills? Then we are not competitors, how about it? How about that?
Don’t you want to join forces with me?”
"Okay, you were quite handsome when you stepped forward to help the residents who were threatened by pirates on Red Pepper Island. It's just that you knelt down at the end was a bit embarrassing." Don Turn took hold of Mozart's extended right hand and shook it.
, almost shaking the opponent's shoulder and dislocating it.
"Well, that's not kneeling, it's a strategy! It's an act used to confuse the opponent!" Mozart's face turned red behind his mustache and he defended loudly: "How could I have succeeded in a sneak attack otherwise? After all, there was a reward of 50 million.
Berry’s big guy!”
Although the reckless man opposite is a genius who can talk to death, this guy is super strong. Even Duduli, the 'plastic exploding head' with a bounty of 75 million berries, had his head ripped off by him! If it happens again!
Coupled with my own resourcefulness, it seems that it is not impossible to get through all the obstacles and obtain membership.
While Mozart was chuckling to himself, an inappropriate voice came from beside him.
"Can you let me join your team?"
Mozart quickly turned around and found a tall man standing next to him. He was wearing a pink casual suit and silver leather shoes. His short dark green hair was pulled back into a slicked back. He wore purple sunglasses on his head and hung around his neck.
Wearing a gorgeous gold necklace and a gold ring on his fingers, he has a fake smile on his rather handsome face.
"Huh? Brother, who are you?" Mozart looked impatient.
"My name is Gilder Tezolo, and I am a nobody." The green-haired man who called himself 'Tezolo' smiled broadly: "You two are extremely powerful, can you help me? To be honest, I admire the Hunter Association.
It’s been a long time and I really want to join!”
"If you want to join, just become an ordinary member of the association. As long as you have no bad deeds, you can register successfully." Mozart curled his lips: "As for the internal members of the association, you have to grab the qualifications based on your ability. Let me tell you first, you have it.
What ability?"
The smile on Tezzolo's face became even brighter, he hugged Mozart's shoulders and introduced to him: "Brother, I have participated in the first Hunter Association Qualification Trial. This year is the sixth time! And because of my low strength, I focus on collecting.
Information, I recognize most of the top players among the contestants, including these two of course. Are you the 'Devil Saxophone' Mozart? With your superb sword fighting skills and your musical skills that have fascinated thousands of girls, you are among the bounty hunters.
Become famous!"
"Hey hey hey... Fascinating thousands of girls... Well, it's not as exaggerated as you said..." Mozart said modestly, half shy and half proud, stroking the back of his head.
"And this 'little chain knife' Don Turn! The chain knife is so amazing that he can kill people from a hundred meters away. Not long ago, he single-handedly took out the 'plastic exploding head' Du with a bounty of 75 million berries.
Dooley’s head!”
"A coincidence... a coincidence..." Don Turn covered his face with his hands and made a squirming gesture.
Mozart couldn't bear to look at Dantern with a look of disgust on his face, and turned to look at Tezzolo: "I guess you have some eyesight. Since you said that you have participated in the first five trials, tell us in detail. Due to the World Government's
Due to restrictions, newspapers basically do not report detailed information related to assessment."
"Then let me just talk about it casually. Speaking of which, the first selection competition was quite lively. There were more than 4,000 contestants. The president came to the scene to invigilate the exam. It is said that there were three levels in the exam. Of course, little brother, I came first.
The pass was passed. There were eleven final winners in the first session, 'Chen
Faint' Postiga, 'Gem Hunter' Anthony, 'Giant Mercenary' Haildin, 'Scorching Current' Quasimodo... these are all well-known neutral strongmen on the sea, and three of them are originally 'Coral'
'The members came to participate in the qualifying competition just to prove themselves."
"If you want me to say, the second trial is the most cruel and exciting one. Because many monster-like beings were waiting on the sidelines the year before and did not decide to participate in the trials until the second trial was about to begin. This is why
As a result, the overall strength of the contestants was a whole level higher than the previous one! At the same time, there were large-scale casualties among the contestants. 744 people participated, and only 320 people survived in the end, including many missing arms and legs.
of disabled people. The main reason is the third round of competition
At that time, two monsters suddenly fought and affected the surrounding contestants! 'Blind Man' Yisheng and 'Spider' Spade, both of them are powerful monsters comparable to the president. For some unknown reasons, the two of them met in the first round.
An all-out battle broke out during the three rounds, and my younger brother I also sadly withdrew from the competition due to serious injuries. Only three people qualified this time, but this did not include Yisheng and Spade, because they violated the rules in the third round.
According to the regulations, both of them will be banned from participating in the selection competition for the next three years."
"The third session was the one with the largest number of people who passed, with a total of 39 people. But the first round of the exam happened to be the comprehensive physical evaluation that I am least good at, so I was rejected again."
"The fourth edition caught up with a huge storm that has rarely been seen in the 'City of Yesterday' in decades. In the first level alone, 1/2 of the number of people who passed passed fell. Well, that includes me."
"As a fifth-time junior, I tried my best to pass the third round, but I didn't expect that the schedule would be changed to the fifth round... Alas!"
After hearing this miserable competition experience, Mozart couldn't help but pat Tezzolo on the shoulder: "Brother, I'm sorry for you!"
"It's not bitter, it's not bitter...Compared to those contestants who lost their lives, I am extremely lucky to be able to participate in the sixth competition alive and well." Tezzolo wiped the corners of his eyes and said enthusiastically:
"Just in time, let me introduce to you two of the noteworthy powerful people present!"
