Chapter 293 The first round ends, the second round begins
South China Sea, uninhabited island ‘Rafam’.
This is a huge island with a tropical climate, and the area near the coast is covered by endless tropical jungles. There are already contestants in twos and threes gathered on the beach, and various broken ships are stranded in the shallow water not far from the coast.
Without exception, they have all experienced fierce battles and storms. It is a miracle that they can support this island.
In addition, the contestants present, without exception, all appeared in teams. Those lone wolves who insisted on going their own way may be stronger than some of the contestants present, but all these lone wolves were eliminated in a cruel way in the first round of the competition.
.
'Pirate Prince' Cavendish was humming a song and carefully combing his long golden curly hair with a small mirror. Although he did not find any clues about the uninhabited island, this did not prevent other contestants from taking a fancy to his great strength.
I came to him with clues to form a team. Cavendish and Emma Faluru joined a small team of 4 people, and started a one-sided fight with other teams in the terrifying storm, and finally successfully arrived at Wuhan.
The human island 'Rafam', the group ranking is [4].
'Pioneering Adventurer' Olombus is sitting at the other end of the beach. He is shirtless and is carefully spreading his wet shirt on a huge fragment of shipboard and carefully smoothing out the wrinkles at the corners.
.Olumbus is different from Cavendish. He looks rough but is thoughtful at heart. He soon collected clues and used his prestige to gather a team of 20 people, crushing 4 waves of competitors along the way.
Arriving at 'Rafam', the group ranking is [3].
The 'Blind Man' spent his whole life sitting cross-legged on the beach, with the staff and knife in his hand flat on his knees, his eyes tightly closed under the hideous
The contestants who collected the clues asked for a team. However, unlike Cavendish, who randomly picked a few teammates and set off, after rejecting several waves of powerful contestant groups in his life, he happily agreed to the team of a brother and sister.
The team requested. What is even more shocking is that he can actually control the brother and sister's small broken boat to float directly in mid-air through the fruit power, and go straight to the uninhabited island 'Lafam' at super fast speed.
After arriving, he told the brother and sister to stand near the examiner to protect themselves, and then sat on the beach to silently suppress each other with someone on the other end. His team was ranked [2].
Far away on the beach opposite the 'Blind Man', a sinister man wearing a gray trench coat sat in mid-air. It was 'Spider' Spade! No one knew how he came to this uninhabited island 'Rafam'
, the only informed examiner, 'Devil Sheriff' Lafayette, also remained silent about this. But what is undeniable is that Spider Spade successfully arrived in Lafayam as a team and ranked first, a well-deserved ranking
【1】.
Standing on a huge tree branch near the beach, Lafayette, who was wearing a black coat, held up the black top hat on his head, took out his pocket watch and checked the time. In this round of competition, he was also paying more attention to a seed team - the 'Rick Family'
The family bounty hunter team formed by 'Mad Hatter' Rick and his daughter and son-in-law is super famous in the circle, and coupled with Rick's weird ship 'Magic Flute'... there is no reason why it hasn't happened yet.
Arrival.
At this time, there was a commotion on the beach.
"Coming, coming! That octopus with a human face...is the Mad Hatter's Magic Flute!"
"Hell, don't mention that guy's name. This old man loves boats so much that if you don't know, he thinks that boat is his grandson!"
"It's such a good ship... Even such a terrible storm didn't damage it. I don't know how that crazy old man Rick got this good ship."
"Huh? Who is the green-haired man standing at the bow of the ship?"
As the Magic Flute gradually approached the coast, the whispers among the contestants gathered on the beach became louder and louder. As the captain, David Rick did not show up, but instead an unknown green-haired boy showed off his power on the bow.
Showing off. What's going on, 'Leader' Bass finally divorced that good-for-nothing Jerry and remarried this slut?
Lafayette raised his eyebrows and turned into a white dove and fluttered towards the beach.
After landing, people were surprised to find that the Magic Flute had actually changed its captain. Mozart wore David Riker's iconic captain's hat with a proud look on his face, and David Riker, who was covered in bandages, stood beside him.
There was a heartbroken look on his face behind him.
Don't even need to ask, Dont'en's big trumpet voice said it all. He failed to eliminate the competitors but was defeated. David Riker originally planned to risk his life to fight for two backstops, but that guy was named Mozart.
But the boy used his sharp tongue to successfully persuade Beth and Jerry, and then let the two of them persuade Rick in turn. The son-in-law is not worth mentioning, but in the face of the tearful persuasion of his good daughter, a stubborn Rick has no choice but to
He bowed his head to the three Mozarts and handed over the captain's hat that symbolized the captain's position.
The three Mozarts kept their promise and did not take the lives of Rick's family. They also absorbed Bess and Jerry into this temporary team and promised them to return the Magic Flute to Rick if they successfully obtained the hunter qualifications.
What else could Rick say? He had no choice but to hold his nose and join this makeshift gang with his daughter and son-in-law.
After taking a short rest to take care of their injuries and taking the time to eat something, under Rick's skillful control, the Magic Flute successfully took six people through the storm and arrived at the uninhabited island of 'Lafam'.
Their team ranking is [5].
Another 7 hours passed, and before the time limit ended, a total of 17 teams with a total of 149 people arrived at the uninhabited island ‘Rafam’.
There are 1,788 participants, and 149 people remain after the first round. The ‘survival rate’ is less than 1/10, and this is only the first round, so the difficulty is evident.
Click!
Under the giant tree, Lafayette closed the copper cover of his pocket watch, smiled at the crowd gathered on the beach in front and said:
"Congratulations to all of you for successfully passing the first round. I am honored to serve as your first-round examiner. Then, please ask the examiner of the second round to announce the test questions for you."
After saying that, he turned into a white dove and flew away.
People waited for a while, but no second-round examiner showed up? The commotion and noise in the crowd became louder and louder.
"What's going on? We've been let off the hook?" Bess said angrily with her hands on her hips. In contrast to her sweet appearance, Bess had an extremely fiery and bad personality, which meant that Jerry could stand her.
Rick scratched the hedgehog's head, took out the flat silver flask engraved with 'RICK' and took a sip. He burped before saying, "Be patient, dear, isn't the examiner already here?"
"Already here?" Mozart rubbed his eyes, but except for the contestants like them, there were no new figures on the huge beach.
There was a trace of cold sweat on Tezzolo's forehead: "He is indeed here, and he is a familiar [big guy]!"
Several people followed his gaze and saw a tall figure appearing under the giant tree. He was wearing a red windbreaker with his chest exposed, a pendant hanging on his chest, and a gray leather bag on his waist. This man had a full head.
His short gray hair is slightly messy, his cheeks are slightly sunken, and his eyes are sunken deep into his eye sockets but as bright as bright light bulbs. The strange thing is that although this man is leaning against a giant tree in a conspicuous outfit, almost all the contestants present are
Very few people can find him.
"One-star criminal hunter, Quasimodo the Burning Current!" Mozart also recognized this person. No way, this man is too famous. Quasimodo the Burning Current was actually Vulcan of the Furnace Island
The Sheriff of the island is an extremely powerful fire-breathing man who also ate the Superman-type Squirt Fruit. There were many strong people in the first hunter selection competition, but he overcame the others and won the first place, and at the same time he became a famous figure in history.
The first criminal hunter. Under his attack, the "Paradise" in the first half of the Grand Line where Vulcan Island is located has rarely seen human trafficking transactions in recent years.
Stealing people's way of making money is like killing their parents. The human traffickers who roam the sea have already formed a large scale after hundreds of years of development. How can they allow a mere bullshit hunter to block their way of making money? These human traffickers recruit and hire rapists who are willing to work for money.
The rebels openly clamored to teach Quasimo the Burning Current an unforgettable lesson. They wanted to capture Vulcan Island and capture all the people on the island and sell them into the most despicable slaves!
So in the year 1514 of the Hainan calendar, the famous "Battle of Vulcan Island" broke out!
The bodies of the four wanted criminals with a bounty of over 100 million, together with the 460-person human trafficking group, were all gone. Their remaining ashes were sprinkled into the shallow sea of Vulcan Island as a warning. So far, the human trafficking group is in disgrace.
The 'Paradise' was evacuated, leaving only a bunch of scum from the Chambord Islands trembling and hiding in the area under the jurisdiction of the Celestial Dragons, not daring to come out.
"Such a strong man is indeed qualified to be an examiner!" Tezzolo's eyes were full of enthusiasm: "I also want to become such a legend!"
Jerry was a little strange: "But why can't anyone else seem to see him? Did Quasimodo eat the invisibility fruit?"
"Jerry, you are so stupid! How can one person eat two Devil Fruits? They will explode!" Bess stretched out his index finger and poked Jerry's forehead again and again, making him scream in pain.
Rick took another sip of wine, wiped the corner of his mouth casually and said: "[It is said]... remember, it is [It is said]. It is said that the president of the Hunter Association has developed a brand-new weapon similar to the 'Navy Type 6'
Combat system. This 'Scorching Current' Quasimodo is the hunter favored by the president, and he has been promoted to a one-star hunter. Maybe Quasimodo got some weird fighting skills from the president...
…”
As he spoke, he raised his neck and took a big sip. The wine dripped down his beard and stained his clothes.
"What kind of combat skills can make people invisible? Are you talking about the nonsense settings of third-rate fantasy novels?" Mozart sneered at this.
"I already said it was [It is said]! [It is said]! Has your brain deteriorated to the point where you can't even understand common words?" Rick was immediately furious. He was very angry about Mozart who had taken away the Magic Flute and the captaincy.
I have been unhappy for a long time: "Tell me, can you understand what your own name means? Mo! Za! Te!"
"Oh dad, you are so mean. I plan to name my next child Mozart." Bess said awkwardly.
"Damn it, Beth, if you have a second child in the future, you must not name your child Mozart. This name is cursed! Anyone with this name is a **! I am willing to transfer the name of the Magic Flute to my unborn grandson or
Granddaughter or whatever, as long as they don't call her Mozart!" Rick was very mad.
Tezzolo covered his face and whispered helplessly: "Can you stop arguing?"
At this time, Quasimodo, the "Scorching Current" under the tree, shook his body and took a few steps forward. The noise in the crowd gradually stopped, and it seemed that everyone suddenly noticed Quasimodo's existence.
"Contestants, welcome to the second round of the Sixth Hunter Qualification Selection."
Quasimodo had a serious face and a low voice, and his mouth full of sharp shark teeth could be seen between opening and closing his lips: "I am one of the second round examiners. My exam question is - find the name '
Take the blue dye's mushrooms and come back to this beach alive to see me."
"Now, the first half of the second round of exams officially begins!"
