One Piece's Strongest Vice-Captain

Helmet, arm armor, chest armor, leg armor... After wearing a lot of armor that can be equipped on the body, finally pick up a thick shield and a two-palm wide sword.After Luffy's slightly thin body was covered by armor, he couldn't help but feel a bit more heroic, but the white beard that took up half of his face really made people think of an old middle-aged sophomore who had read too many knight novels. sick.

"This is really... so handsome!"

"Hey! You can't act like this. Those big people are not interested in seeing two tin cans chopping each other. Only blood splatter can make those talking guys excited." Bartolomio stretched out his scarlet tongue to lick He licked the fangs protruding from his lips, "The weight of the equipment is very harsh, like you..."

"Sorry, the weight of your equipment has exceeded the standard." Facing Luffy who was fully armed and ready to go out, the person in charge of the equipment room pointed to most of the armor that Luffy was wearing. "This, this, and this have to come off."

"Are you guys listening to me?" Bartolomeo suppressed the urge to kill people, he didn't want to be disqualified for such a trivial matter.And...his gaze landed on the straw hat that was temporarily placed behind his back after a while.

"Hey, you guys like this straw hat too, don't you?"

"Well, this one?" After taking off the arm armor and throwing it aside, Luffy reached out and brought the straw hat on his back to his eyes. "Of course, I will never give up on this... But it is rare to wear a helmet, so I will wear this first today."

"Really? I won't give up even if I die." Bartolomeo pondered for a while, looking at the funny little old man in front of him, his eyes were full of admiration. "You are very good, although you are a little polite, but your awareness is very good. How is it? Do you want to join my pirate group?"

"No!" Luffy refused without thinking, "I don't want to join your subordinates, my pirate group will always be the Straw Hat Pirates!" [

"You guy..." Bartolomeo was stunned, and he suddenly felt ashamed of what this man said.I always thought that I was the number one fan of Mr. Luffy, but compared with this guy. "I'm Bartolomeo, nice to meet you."

"Huh?" Luffy didn't know what this guy was suddenly excited about, but it didn't matter.This guy looks like a nice guy. "My name is Lu~Xi, please take care of me."

"Sure enough, these two guys are very compatible." Looking at Luffy and Bartolomeo who were inexplicably in tune, Nero didn't bother to interfere, and there was no need to interfere.Luffy has always been very accurate in seeing people.I can't explain it clearly, but it is an innate talent like Luffy's unique charisma.

A loud noise came faintly, as if a lot of people were cheering for something.

"Hey, it's a big event, everyone. The group competition is over!"

"What! How could it be so fast! This is just the beginning!"

"I heard that a man swept the audience, and the battle was over in an instant."

After the unexpected news came, everyone hurried towards the arena.Among the gladiators from all over the world, there are many vicious outlaws. Those who can defeat everyone so quickly are simply monsters.You must know that the battles in the arena are always endless.

"I really should go and see it quickly." Nero said so, and his figure disappeared instantly like a ghost.

Seeing this scene, Rebecca showed a trace of horror on her face, but immediately bit her lip, trying to suppress all other feelings.All that is left is a firm will to fight.

Although Nero moved quickly, everything was settled by the time he reached the stand specially reserved for the players.On the stage, gladiators who did not know whether they were dead or alive were scattered all over the stage, and only one tall figure stood upright.Pieces of dark red colors glowed in the surrounding pools, forming a cruel color.

A trace of ripples appeared, and it seemed that there was something huge swimming past under the water.Suddenly a sharp horn broke through the water surface, pierced with a struggling figure.Immediately afterwards, the underwater monster was fully revealed as it leaped up—a hideous fish with horns and forehead.

After jumping out of the water, the strange fish flicked its head, and the person pierced by its horn immediately flew to the audience with a bloody arc, causing a crowd of exclamations.

"Hahahaha, our cute little Douyu sent the players who fell into the water ashore. Although the method was a little bit rough. What a wonderful child." The host of the arena held the microphone skillfully to drive the atmosphere. His words were met with loud applause.Simple, rough, and bloody, such things are obviously more popular in the arena.Placing fierce bettas in the pool around the duel platform also meets this requirement.

"But what's even more amazing is this one! The mysterious and powerful wrestler who ended the fight within 15 minutes of the opening and knocked everyone down—the winner of the group, Mr. Stoya!" [

The audience cheered enthusiastically, but the only man standing on the dueling ring, dressed as a wrestler, did not wave to show his presence.Instead, he raised his hand and made a stop gesture, and slowly extended the other hand to the simple hood on his head.

"Oh, it seems that our winner is going to announce his identity at this time. Let's see who the brutal and powerful winner this time is..."

The hood was pulled off, revealing a rough face with a boxer mask.The long beard and hair are very different from two years ago, but this face is still famous in today's new world.

"Burgess!" When a roar sounded, a big man who had fallen on the ground suddenly jumped up.The clothes on his body were shattered in an instant, revealing the body hidden underneath that became crystal clear due to the activation of the ability.

"The ability of the diamond fruit! That person is the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates【Diamond】Joz!"

Whitebeard Edward Newgate was killed in the top battle two years ago, and it was reported that his body was stolen by Blackbeard Teach a few months later.Everyone had guessed that this would be the beginning of the end for the famous Whitebeard Pirates, but that wasn't the case.

[Fire Fist] Ace, the fuse of this top battle, after restoring his surname Gol Ace, took over the ruling power of the Whitebeard Pirates in an extremely powerful way.Although Fa Zai had a place in the Four Emperors, he also led the remnants of Whitebeard and the Blackbeard gang who quickly rose to become the new Four Emperors to fight vigorously.

The fist wrapped under the hard diamond slammed down hard, but Burgess did not choose to dodge.After the metal-colored armed domineering emerged on the fist, the helmsman of the Blackbeard Pirates firmly fought a fist against the strongest shield under Whitebeard.

After a huge roar, both sides involuntarily took a few steps back.Just before Qiaozi could stand still, a spark suddenly exploded on his forehead.Then at this opportunity, Burgess stabilized his body and a dash appeared behind Joz. His thick body used a disproportionately flexible fighting technique to fix Joz's limbs from behind.

Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of dense roars like striking iron, all concentrated in the same position where the previous blow was struck.With such intensive bursts, even the hardness of diamonds could not help but make a groan of shattering.

"Boom!" A blue flame suddenly exploded in the auditorium, and a man with a scope in his right eye took a few steps back holding the gun in his hand.Watching Lie Yan (raging flames) falling on his position vigilantly.

"Hey, hey, don't you think it's unfair for two to fight one, Van Oka?" A pair of lazy dead fish eyes appeared in the blue flames.The captain of the first team of the Whitebeard Pirates [Phoenix] Marco put his hands in his trouser pockets, and he didn't have any sense of fear for the gun pointed at him. "Or you can tell me where Blackbeard is, so maybe I won't have to bother you. Anyway, you can't kill that guy Joz, and I don't mind letting this impulsive guy suffer. "

"Arrogance is a sin, so let me relieve you." Van Oka looked at Marco, his expression unchanged.He just calmly aimed his gun at the opponent's head.

"Blu, blu, blu..." A phone bug rang, and Van Oka put away his shooting posture, but he didn't intend to answer it.Keeping his eyes fixed on Marco, he moved backwards towards the exit. "Burgess, let's go."

"I really can't help it. I thought it would at least let me play for a while." Burgess threw Jozi away with a hard back fall, and then took a few steps to jump into the auditorium and disappeared with Van Oka. the exit.

"This competition is really unexpectedly interesting." Ace, Blackbeard, and... After scanning around, Nero easily found some quite interesting shadows.

The clues of ancient weapons are like a tempting bait, attracting countless speculators, as well as those real predators hidden under the waves.This place called Dressrosa is now like a powder keg that is stuffed to the brim, but I don't know when a spark will burst out and ignite it.

ps: Another new year.Updates are still a bit lacking.There is no way, there are always many unexpected things in the first month, such as the bear children of relatives, such as the bear children of relatives and so on.Sometimes it's not a good thing to be too popular with children, especially when there are a lot of bad kids.
