One Piece's Strongest Vice-Captain

He wears an ancient Roman battle helmet like a rooster's comb on his head, and the only feature on his face is the pointed and long goatee on his chin.The upper body is completely naked except for a cloak used as a decoration, and the seemingly powerful hands are standing with swords.Such a bronze bust of a gladiator that fits the style of the arena does not have any sense of disobedience in this room full of weapons, but when it unconsciously meets the eyes of the statue.A strong sense of oppression rushed over.

"Cyrus, unexpectedly it is a very common name." Gently reading the name on the base of the statue, Nero read the deeds written on it very quietly.

Three thousand battles have been won, and no defeat has been achieved until the ruins of the silencer 20 years ago.The scar left on the body is the only scar that was cut by the enemy in a certain battle.

"It's unbelievable that such a gladiator exists." Rebecca also looked up at the tall bronze statue in front of her with emotion after discovering Nero's movements. "In fact, most people in this country only know Cyrus as it says on the nameplate. Many people even doubt whether the legend of the greatest gladiator is just a story. But it is incredible that only Although no one knows him and no one intends to remove the bronze statue."

"Legend? That kind of look is not something an artist can imagine casually. And if winning [-] games in a row is considered a legend, then the legend is too cheap." The blue flame started from the position above the waist Spreading upwards, the clothes quickly turned into ashes and disappeared, and the hair that had lost the restraint of the headband was all scattered into a shiny black streamer that would even make most women jealous.

The arm wrapped in the flame casually grabbed the huge tower shield beside it, and the hard metal liquefied and shrunk like a candle approaching the flame.In the end, it turned into a ball of liquid the size of a baby's fist. It squirmed and was pulled by a force and turned into a metal ring full of hollow patterns, binding the black hair into a ponytail.

"The gladiator Nero Stormwind, who has been retired for a long time, has often done fair trades in exchange for injuries. There have been more than ten thousand battles, but no matter whether the opponent is a human or a beast, I am the one who survived in the end."

"Gladiator?" The previous scene did prove that the opponent is not mediocre, but looking at Nero's upper body without a single scar is really not what a gladiator who trades injuries for lives should look like.But Rebecca didn't plan to go any further, and she gave up the possibility of getting along with each other after hearing the other party tell her her number.

Groups of a hundred people, and slave gladiators will be randomly assigned.In the cruelest knockout stage, no one will show mercy for someone they just met.In the melee of hundreds of people, any kind of mercy means the possibility of failure.Failure in the arena usually means death. "Gladiator Rebecca." [

"Yo Hou, what are you looking at?" Wearing a straw hat and a beach T-shirt full of sunflowers on the upper body, the two hideous scars crossed on the open chest look extremely eye-catching.The only difference between my own captain is the exaggerated fake beard on his face and the sunglasses covering his eyes.

In Azeroth, if Luffy were stronger, the current dress might be particularly favored by the beauties of the dwarves.But judging from the aesthetics of other races, this is an old gangster who wants to gallop like he was when he was young.

"Hee hee hee, my name is Lu Xi. I am also a fighter who signed up for the competition. Please take care of me when we meet for the first time!" Lu Fei grinned, and with the big beard that completely blocked the lower half of his face, he suddenly had a kind of shocking expression. Obscene feeling.However, Nero still easily read the meaning of "come and praise me" from the face under the beard.

Just cooperate with him, as far as Luffy is concerned, it is already very remarkable to do this.Moreover, his name was not included in the list of infiltrating secretly at the beginning. No matter how you think about it, this simple guy has no talent for being a spy. "Lu Xi? It's a pleasure to meet you. It's amazing to participate in fighting games at your age."

"Ho Ho Ho Ho, don't underestimate the elderly. I am very strong." Seeing that Nero had also been deceived by his disguise, Lu Fei immediately became proud.Pretending to sound like an old man on purpose, he gestured to his skinny arm a few times while talking, and finally coughed a few times. "Hmm, my name is Lucy. I'm an old man who is going to become One Piece."

"Die, Luffy!" When a voice full of resentment sounded, a cold light also bloomed towards Luffy at the same time.The few people around who were secretly watching here were ready to make a move.However, the matter did not continue to develop, and the blade stopped when it almost touched Luffy's body.

"L-u-y, isn't your guy called Lucy?" Cavendish on the white horse read the name on the number plate pasted on Luffy's back, and put the sword into the sheath very gracefully. "If you have such a strong local accent, don't imitate that bastard Straw Hat like those young people. It almost disqualified me. If you are really that Straw Hat Luffy guy, it's okay to be disqualified for killing you. But for killing a It is not worthwhile to lose the opportunity to obtain ancient weapons by using counterfeit goods."

Cavendish said so, and sat down on the equipment box beside him with a look of lack of interest.He took out a white rose from his bosom, and elegantly ate the rose petals piece by piece.

"What, the original name is Lucy. It almost made me think that Straw Hat Luffy is here."

"Really, what kind of fanatic is an uncle?"

"Thinking about it, I heard that the straw hat boy is a strong man with a height of eight meters."

The onlookers and administrators breathed a sigh of relief, and began to scold the uncle who didn't straighten his tongue when he spoke.Luffy didn't take it seriously either, he was grinning.

Although he felt the sharp murderous aura just now, he was ready to dodge and fight back.But since the murderous intent disappeared in an instant, Luffy didn't think much about it.This time, my character is infiltrating secretly as a spy. If I reveal my identity here, the mission will fail.Luffy is still very satisfied with the success of his disguise.

"Is anyone here very dissatisfied with Straw Hat Luffy?"

With one foot, he mercilessly kicked away the gladiator standing in front of him, and the appearance of a beast-like face seemed to clear the field.Most of the onlookers hurriedly hid. [

"[Ogre] Bartolomeo!"

"Get out of here quickly, I heard that this guy takes pleasure in eating people's hearts."

"He's the No. 1 person in the world who most wants him to disappear! Why would such a person come here?"

After hearing the discussion of the people around him, Bartolomeo picked his ears.After scanning the surrounding people with bloodthirsty eyes, this vicious pirate dressed as a bosozoku stretched out his scarlet tongue and licked his sharp fangs. "Dare to say straw hat Luffy in front of me, do you know what will happen if you make me angry?"

Private fighting in the audience will lose the qualification of the competition, but after Nero's previous behavior.These people have some doubts about the binding force of the arena rules.The increasingly bloodthirsty expression on Bartolomeo's face also seemed to confirm this point.

"Pfft!" Bartolomeo farted loudly suddenly, and the bloodthirsty expression on his face turned into a lazy and dismissive one. "How could I give up my qualifications because of you little people."

"Mr. Nero, I'm really sorry for the rudeness just now." Bartolomeo suddenly bowed to Nero, his sincere attitude was completely different from the previous rebellious look. "There is one thing I want to ask you, please promise me."

"Well, it's okay. If I can, I don't mind helping you a little." I don't know what kind of medicine this guy who appeared out of nowhere sold in his gourd, and the enthusiasm in his eyes made Nero feel a little uncomfortable.This guy's expression made Nero have some bad guesses... If it was that kind of request, kill him immediately.

"Please~~~ Please help me sign~~~ Sign your name." Bartolomeo tremblingly took out a delicate notebook and a beautiful pen from his arms and sent them to Nero.That coy and shy look reminded him of the brainless girl who asked for autographs from the stars he admired.

Looking at the coy guy in front of him who was dressed like a bosozoku, Nero really didn't know what to do, so he had to maintain a somewhat stiff expression on his face, picked up a pen and wrote his name on the notebook.

"Thank you very much!" Bartolomeo hugged the autograph book to his chest like a treasure, and his face flushed with happiness. "When Lord Luffy was on the execution platform in Rogge Town, I was astonished. Since then, I have been paying attention to you, and I have collected every issue of arrest warrants and news about you..."

It's really a brain fan, isn't the setting of this kind of pig's foot halo a little bloody?The corner of Nero's mouth twitched, but being admired by such a guy to such an extent doesn't give him any sense of accomplishment.Think about those guys in the previous life who liked to make pillows from the photos of their idols. This era of great pirates seems to have this kind of business... Nero suddenly thought that it would be better to evaporate him from the world.

"I came to participate in the competition this time to help you get back the things that were stolen by Xiao Xiao. I didn't expect you to come in person. But I don't plan to quit. I am a player in Group B, so I can only do it in the final battle. I will meet you. If~~~I mean~~~If I am lucky enough to become the champion, I will give you the prize. But please~~~Please..." Bartolomeo stammered As he said that, Nero was ready to kill him with his big move the moment he said something strange.

"...Please be sure to get Master Luffy's autograph for me!"

"Luffy?" Nero breathed a sigh of relief after the pattern on the pillow held by Bartolomeo changed to the confused guy next to him in his mind.The expression also returned to a kind smile, "You admire Luffy, don't you?"

"That's right, although you, Mr. Nero, Mr. Zoro, Mr. Sanji...even Mr. Feng Krei who just joined are so handsome. But it is still Luffy-sama..."

"That's enough. I'll get you an autograph. It's not a problem if you want to have lunch with him. Just do what you want." Nero patted Bartolomeo on the shoulder and understood The person he admired was Luffy himself, but by the way, Nero's eyes on this guy suddenly became more pleasing to his eyes.But it's better not to let Shirley know about this kind of thing, that little girl is too receptive, I don't know what weird things she will write.

"Lunch together~~~I will definitely do it!" Bartolomeo nodded vigorously, almost jumping up with excitement. "Lunch with Luffy-sama..."

Nero glanced at Luffy who felt good about himself because of Bartolomeo's words, and then looked at Bartolomeo who was walking away surrounded by pink light. "You are really sinful."

"Huh? What did you say Nero?"

"No, I mean you should choose some equipment that you will use later. The weapons and armor here are all free to use."

"What! Really? It's so cool!" Luffy jumped up happily, and looked around with the awning in his hands. "Oh!! That's good, and that one! I'll definitely look handsome in it."

After Luffy ran away in a hurry, Cavendish just chewed and ate the last rose petal. "I didn't expect that I would lose to such a simple and unmannered guy."

"Oh? It seems that you are not someone who can't even see through such a simple disguise." Nero looked at the noble young man in front of him with a half-smile.

"I want to kill him, but I don't want to take my life because of this kind of thing." Cavendish fiddled with the bare rose branches in his hand, "Like this rose, although when I picked it Possibly stab me. But even if I bleed its petals will be eaten by me, so this kind of thing is meaningless. If I just shot, at least three people would have shot me at that moment. And I don't It must be possible to kill the Straw Hat in such a short time. I will beat you in the knockout round, and then kill him openly in the final."

"Really? Then I'll wait and see."

"Please look forward to it."

ps: Because the driver's license subject 300 practice was suspended for a week, I originally thought that it would be over after passing it once.I went to the exam with full confidence, but I still failed in the end... Changing a computer already cost me almost the part-time job, but it turned out that I spent more than [-] more.
