Selling Pokémon from Pirates

Chapter 194 Zoro VS Sanji!

award!?

As Musashi finished speaking, both the players on the ring and the audience below the ring widened their eyes instantly!

Because Lin Luo has never announced the specific content of the rewards, no one pays too much attention to them.

But now that they heard Musashi mentioning the reward again, everyone in the arena couldn't calm down for an instant.

"The reward..."

Zoro murmured, his eyes constantly echoing among the players around him, but then he looked at the audience in the distance.

Looking at those faces full of anticipation and excitement...

Zoro had to admit that if his purpose of coming to the Pokémon League Conference in the first place was to resurrect Kuina...

Then his current thinking has more or less changed.

if you can……

He actually wants to climb higher and go further!

He wanted to stand at the top of the world, and then say to the resurrected Kuina: "I did what I promised!"

Clang!

A very rhythmic buzzing sound suddenly came from behind Sauron.

In the sword box, the double scabbards that felt Sauron's thoughts were constantly trembling in response to Sauron's ambition!

Zoro smiled slightly and looked at Garp and Ace again.

Although he knew that his thoughts at this time might be a little naive and a little whimsical.

But if he doesn't even dare to think about it, then what qualifications does he have to compete for the throne of the world's greatest swordsman!!!

"Then, contestants who are preparing to become champions, please choose your champion throne!"

After introducing the rules of the competition, Musashi took a step back with a smile and handed the next stage to the eight players on the field.

But just at the moment her voice fell!

A dark green boot was already stepping forward.

Tread...tread...

Under the gaze of everyone, Zoro moved forward step by step and walked straight to the first throne of the Champion.

I saw him grinning softly and saying to himself:

"Then, let this game test whether I am qualified enough to climb to the highest point!"

tread!

As soon as he finished speaking, Zoro jumped directly onto the high platform.

Facing that eye-catching position, I sat down without hesitation.

Wow——

Sauron's proactive attack immediately caused an uproar at the scene and even among audiences around the world.

They originally thought that the first person to step onto the stage would be a recognized candidate for the championship or runner-up like Garp or Ace...

Unexpectedly, it would be Sauron, a young man who has always been unwilling to ask questions!

Although Sauron's strength is obvious to all, he is definitely a well-known figure on the sea.

But on this stage, with such strength, he is just a "junior".

At this moment, both those who supported Sauron and those who did not support Sauron fell silent.

…

…

Shuangyue Village, Shuangyue Gym.

Since Zoro showed his unrivaled strength in the preliminary round, the media company in Donghai has followed current events and set up an additional large-scale broadcasting equipment here.

at this time.

Seeing Zoro take that step without hesitation, Shigetsuki Koushiro, Zoro's master, suddenly showed a happy smile on his face.

He also learned a few days ago that the apprentice who was lost when he went to the naval base to redeem a bounty had miraculously become a trainer...

And its strength has reached the world's top level.

To be honest, when he first learned that Zoro's life trajectory had completely exceeded his expectations, Koushiro was shocked and felt strange.

He even doubted whether the man staring at the green algae head was his apprentice.

In his impression, Sauron was not a person who would give up the art of swordsmanship and practice other powers.

but……

When he learned that one of the prizes at the Pokémon League Tournament was the ability to resurrect the dead, he was instantly relieved.

As Sauron's master, he immediately guessed what Sauron was thinking.

At the same time, he also recognized his apprentice even more.

Koushiro's eyes narrowed into two slits behind his glasses, looking at the figure sitting on the throne on the screen, he murmured:

"Just move forward, Zoro."

"At this moment, you are already standing at the top of the world!"

…

…

"interesting!"

Looking at Zoro who was sitting on the throne, looking cool but actually looking nervous, Garp suddenly chuckled nostalgically.

He immediately started to take steps, slowly walked to the second high platform, jumped lightly, and landed in front of the throne in an instant.

"Then, let me be the second champion!"

Garp laughed and leaned back, crossed his arms over his chest, crossed his legs and waited.

"Hey, you didn't get the first limelight. What a mistake!"

Seeing that the first and second positions were already occupied, Ashton clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction.

Lei reached out and took off the sun hat on his head, walked to the third seat in the row very naturally, sat down, and showed a bright smile.

In an instant, only Sanji, Usopp, Robin, Nami, and Lauren were left standing.

"this……"

Usopp blinked and looked at the gorgeous fourth Champion's throne on the high platform, but had no intention of stepping forward. Instead, he looked at Sanji.

Based on the strength currently displayed, Sanji is undoubtedly the fourth among them.

So according to the order, Sanji should sit on the fourth throne.

really.

Just as Usopp's thoughts flashed through his mind, a pair of clean jet black leather shoes suddenly stepped out.

Crack!

After awakening the power of his blood, Sanji, who had abandoned the lighter, lit the cigarette in his mouth with his fingers, and immediately stepped forward in large strides.

But just when everyone thought he would walk towards the fourth throne, Sanji walked directly in front of Zoro, stretched out his hand without any hesitation, and shouted to Musashi:

"Miss Musashi, I want to challenge the champion - Roronoa Zoro!!!"

"What!?"

The audience stood up in surprise and looked at Sanji in confusion.

I don't understand why he would challenge a powerful opponent when the throne is still available.

Even Musashi, who was in charge of hosting, was stunned by Sanji's operation.

However, after hearing the reminder from the meow in her ears, she immediately came back to her senses and did not ask Sanji why he did this, but directly announced:

"Sanji chooses to challenge the champion Zoro, so the champion and the challenger please rest for five minutes. After five minutes, we will start the first battle of the Four Strongest Tournament!"

"Other players please exit in an orderly manner."

"Oh, right!"

As if remembering that there was still no candidate for the last throne, Musashi quickly added:

"There is still a champion position. I wonder if any of the other four players are interested in becoming the champion?"

Musashi glanced at the remaining four contestants.

The four of them looked at me, and I looked at you, but no one planned to take a step forward.

Usopp has a timid personality, so naturally he doesn't dare to be the champion.

Nami and Robin, on the other hand, didn't want to be embarrassed by being challenged by others later, so they didn't have any ideas about this position.

Subconsciously, the three of them looked at Lauren.

"Uh...why are you looking at me?"

Lauren had no intention of going any further. Lauren, who was about to watch the show, noticed everyone's gaze, her expression froze for a moment, and she said with a puzzled expression:

"You don't want me to be the ringmaster, do you?"

"Um!"

Usopp, Nami, and Robin nodded in unison.

"…………"

Seeing that the gazes of the three people did not seem to be fake, Lauren's breath suddenly stopped and her eyes slowly turned to the gorgeous high platform.

To be honest, he was very excited about this position.

But at the same time, he knew very well that that position did not belong to him.

Even Usopp, who seems to be the weakest at the moment, seems to have the power to defeat him easily.

But……

Thinking along this line of thinking, Lauren suddenly discovered...

This may be his only chance to sit in that position.

Thinking of this, Lauren no longer hesitated and stepped forward directly to the fourth ring pillar.

Compared with the other three people who jumped up and stood on the high platform, Lauren could only walk up the narrow stairs around the pillars step by step.

Seeing Lauren sitting on the fourth throne, Musashi immediately began to guide several other contestants into the competition seats.

Five minutes later.

Under the eyes of everyone looking forward to it, Zoro and Sanji stood in front of the ring.

"I never expected that the first person to challenge me would be you."

"I thought it would be Robin or Nami..."

Zoro smiled softly and said calmly.

bake!

Sanji's fingers were on fire, he refilled the cigarette he had finished smoking, and after blowing out a round smoke ring, he sighed:

"I didn't expect you to be so brave and dare to sit in that position before Garp and Ace."

"The strength of those two people is not at the same level as ours."

"hehe."

Zoro grinned and replied:

"But we can't always catch up with them, can we?"

"…………"

Under the scorching sun, a gentle breeze caressed the empty arena and Sanji's golden hair.

After receiving Zoro's answer, Sanji was stunned for a moment, but then he chuckled again.

"I have to say, I'm not as good as you at this point!"

"No no no..."

Zoro immediately shook his head, revealing a row of clean white teeth, and joked:

"As time goes by, you will find that you are not as good as me in many ways!"

"..."

"You green algae head! I really don't get along with you!"

Sanji took out the Flame Chicken's Poké Ball and looked at Zoro with an unhappy look on his face.

"Who says it isn't!"

Sauron also took out the Flying Mantis' Poké Ball from his side, glanced at it, and instantly entered a fighting state.

To deal with Sanji, Zoro finally chose to use the Flying Mantis.

Sanji's Flame Chicken has dual attributes of fire and fighting. No matter which Pokémon you use, it will eventually be restrained by the attributes.

Facing a speedy opponent like Sanji, the ability to control metal provided by the double scabbard will not be very useful, and the defense increase of the steel attribute is not obvious enough.

It just so happened that Sauron had not let the Flying Mantis show his face at this conference...

And today’s battle is just the right time!!!

"Come on, flame chicken!"

"Let this green algae head see our power!"

Hereby...

A red light flashed, and the strong body of the Flame Chicken instantly appeared on the ring.

"Come out, Flying Mantis, and enjoy this rare opponent!"

Zoro waved one hand and instantly threw the elf ball in his hand.

All of a sudden!

A flying mantis with a muscular body and two sharp arm blades appeared on the ring.

As soon as the two Pokémon appeared, they instantly showed a powerful aura.

A looming flame suddenly erupted from the flame chicken's body, spreading to all directions.

At the same time, a sharp light flashed in the flying mantis's eyes, and the arm blade in his hand trembled slightly, as if he couldn't wait to chop something.

"It's begun! It's begun!"

At this moment, both the audience at the scene and the spectators in front of the screen were moved by the momentum of the two people. Their eyes widened and they watched the game intently.

"Flaming Chicken (Flying Mantis)! Bond evolution!!!"

Without a trace of hesitation, both Zoro and Sanji could feel each other's determination for this battle, and instantly activated the bond evolution, showing their strongest state!

bake!!!

A beam of fire that looked like it came from hell suddenly erupted from every pore in Sanji's body, burning the air around him.

The Flame Chicken also evolved from its previous fighter form into a black and red form surrounded by flames.

In comparison, Sauron did not change much in form after his bond evolution.

The main reason is that due to the genetic mutation of the Flying Mantis, the insect and flight energy that should have originally existed completely disappeared.

Instead, it is its pure physical power!

Hiss~

A faint mist suddenly erupted from Sauron's body!

After receiving the power of the Flying Mantis, Sauron's power instantly increased by two steps than before, reaching level 60.

In this regard, it is not much different from Sanji who used the power of blood.

As for the Flying Mantis after the bond evolution, in addition to the longer and narrower arm blade in its hand, the biggest change should be its wings that extend from the waist and are tilted to one side!

Influenced by Sauron, after the Flying Mantis evolved through bondage, its rarely used wings were strangely oriented toward the left side of its body, like an unsheathed sharp blade.

Zoro took out the word Hedao, held it in his mouth skillfully, and immediately held two spare long knives in his hands.

"Sure enough, this ordinary sword is just not as useful as the double scabbard!" Zoro sighed regretfully in his heart.

Both sides are ready.

Zoro and Sanji looked at each other.

The next moment, the four figures disappeared in an instant!

On the wide arena, four extremely sharp electric lights suddenly appeared.

Two are as red as flames, and two are as green as forest.

They collided violently at a speed that exceeded the human eye's ability to capture!!!

boom!!!!

Blazing flames mixed with ferocious air waves swept around like a tsunami, erupting with terrifying power.

"It takes a while!"

Zoro's muscles exploded all over his body, and with endless fighting intent in his eyes, he stared at Sanji who blocked his attack with one leg.

"the same as you!"

Sanji replied without hesitation, but he was extremely shocked in his heart.

At this moment, he had already exploded the blood power in his body to its maximum power, but facing Sauron's power, he was slightly inferior.

This was the first time he felt that Sauron's full power could be so powerful!

On the other side, the Flying Mantis and the Flame Chicken also had a stalemate!

The only difference is that in terms of pure strength, the Flying Mantis is obviously slightly better than the Flame Chicken.

The deadlock lasted only a few seconds before the Flame Chicken was defeated.

The Flying Mantis seized the opportunity, twisted around and manipulated its flanks, instantly hitting the Flame Chicken's waist and abdomen, forcing it to retreat.

"just!"

After a successful blow, the Flying Mantis immediately touched the two long knife-like arm blades excitedly, showing a provocative expression.
