Chapter 439 Top 64
On October 3rd, the first round of eliminations of the martial arts tournament officially began.
The Sky Arena is divided into eight venues, with eight matches taking place simultaneously.
The results of the games were basically one-sided, with only two games being evenly matched.
The most intense one was the battle between Doflamingo and Ryan.
Although Doflamingo's bounty is only 480 million, that's because his bounty hasn't changed since he became a Shichibukai.
In terms of strength, he is proficient in the three colors of domineering and has achieved fruit awakening. His strength far exceeds the bounty.
Ryan fought very hard in this battle. The Armor Fruit was not a particularly powerful fruit, but he still chose it.
Perhaps if he had gotten a mythical beast-type devil fruit, his current strength would be very different.
But just like Cassio was attracted to the Bone-Bone Fruit and Mary was attracted to the Rose Fruit, he was attracted to the Armor Fruit at first sight.
After two hours of fierce fighting, Ryan was completely at a disadvantage. When he was about to lose, he woke up.
The awakened Armor Fruit is like Barrett's Fusion Fruit, which can fuse all inorganic matter into its own armor.
All the threads created by Doflamingo's awakening fruit turned into part of Ryan's armor, and could not cause any effective attack on him.
After fighting for another hour, Doflamingo chose to admit defeat.
He couldn't break Ryan's armor, and continuing to fight would only bring him trouble.
Moreover, as a partner of the Adrian Kingdom, it was not difficult for him to accept losing to someone from the Adrian Kingdom.
Another game worth watching is the battle between Jalen Green and the Red Hair Pirates' sniper Jesus Bu.
The Red Hair Pirates are not very famous, but they attracted attention in this competition.
Shanks is fighting against Charlotte Armand, the ghost lady of the Big Mom Pirates in this round, a powerful person with a bounty of 650 million.
Just when the audience thought Armand would win, Red Hair made a sudden and unexpected move and killed her instantly.
It was also because of this incident that the Red Hair Pirates came into the public eye.
As a member of the Red Hair Pirates, Jesus naturally received a certain amount of attention.
The arena is flat and has no obstacles, making it unsuitable for sniper combat.
But as the saying goes, a sniper who can't fight in close combat is not a good sniper.
Both of them are proficient in dual-color domineering, and their close combat abilities are also quite good.
The battle between the two seemed ordinary, but every step was full of danger.
For snipers like them, being hit by just one shot means the end of the battle.
Bullets kept passing by the two of them, and thanks to their powerful observation Haki, both of them had their dodge points maxed out.
However, the high-intensity concentration came at the cost of great physical and psychological damage. After half an hour of fighting, Jalen Green shot Jesus in the shoulder.
This shot did not have the power to penetrate, but Jesus knew that he had already lost.
………………
The first round of eliminations lasted until dusk, and the top 64 had already emerged.
Among the top sixty-four, the Kingdom of Adrian basically occupies half of the places, and the rest are taken by major forces.
After this battle, the reputation of the Kingdom of Adrian was completely destroyed.
You have to know that there are still many people in the Adrian Kingdom who have not yet appeared, such as Yixiao, Kalina, Casio, etc.
And what everyone overlooked was that Zell actually met the registration requirements. After all, he was only 38 years old.
But if Zell plays, then the others won’t have to play.
The strength of Adrian's new era is the sum of several other forces, and its significance is extraordinary.
After more than ten years, the older generations of all major forces will have grown old, and then the Kingdom of Adrian will no longer be unstoppable.
This is exactly the effect Zel wanted, to let the world know that the Kingdom of Adrian is not a newly established kingdom, and its foundation is not inferior to any other force.
Of course, there are also some unknown people who begin to emerge through competitions.
Apart from the Red Hair Pirates, the most eye-catching one is Yamato.
He was so strong that he could beat his opponent so hard that he couldn't take care of himself with a mace.
However, her horns are too conspicuous, and her weapon is a mace, so it seems that she is related to Kaido.
So no one regarded her as a separate force, but as Kaido's subordinate.
Kaido did not respond to this.
To be honest, Yamato's growth was much faster than he expected. Except for his attacks not being ruthless enough, he used the other domineering fruit abilities well.
Now he doesn't want to capture Yamato anymore. Since someone is willing to help him teach Yamato, then let's continue like this.
………………
In the evening, the Kingdom of Adrian specially prepared healing hot springs for all contestants.
The hot spring water is made from the healing water of the sacred tree, Suicune's life drops, and Xerneas' life force.
The battle from the top 64 to the top 16 will last for many days, and each person will have to fight at least four times, with the intensity being much higher than the first round of eliminations.
In order to help the players recover their strength, restore their condition, recover from injuries and relieve fatigue, Zell specially built such a hot spring.
Although the contestants all had some doubts about the effectiveness of the hot springs, seeing that everyone from the Kingdom of Adrian had gone there, they had no choice but to go.
This trip is going to be amazing. The service of this hot spring is much better than those in the original hot springs in the Pirate World.
Not only can you watch movies shot in the Kingdom of Adrian through holographic projection, but you can also enjoy a food buffet and unlimited drinks.
In the world of pirates, where entertainment is scarce, they have never enjoyed such services.
The most important thing is not the entertainment services, but that the hot spring water really has the effect of healing injuries.
This hot spring has more than just the function of healing injuries. Pirates or navy officers who have been fighting for years have discovered that hidden injuries in their bodies tend to be healed.
Many female contestants even discovered that hot spring water has beauty-enhancing effects. After soaking in it for a night, they found that their skin had become much tighter the next day.
While the contestants were enjoying the hot springs, Adrian's lively night began.
Although there is no Nako concert tonight, there is another exciting event, which is the auction.
The auction organized by the Kingdom of Adrian is attractive enough just by the products listed on the poster.
The most important thing is that the prizes for the martial arts tournament on the poster and invitation letter are the same, and the top three auction items are not displayed, which whetted everyone's appetite.
Martial arts tournaments attract pirates and navy, while auctions attract a different kind of people.
Those are the nobles and major underground forces around the world.
They may not be strong, but their wealth far exceeds that of pirates and the navy.
