This is a tourist area set up by the Kingdom of China. There are many casinos in this area. Gambling was originally prohibited for Eric, but he couldn't help but do as the locals do.

Human nature loves to gamble, and the pirates who fight for their lives on the sea are even more addicted to gambling. In addition, the World Martial Arts Festival is being held, and the large number of tourists has made the nearby casinos overcrowded.

In the brightly lit casino, every gaming table is crowded with tourists: blackjack, Texas Hold'em, dice, roulette, and all kinds of gambling games.

In the dice area, a man with short black hair and a beard around his mouth sat quietly at the gaming table.

He closed his eyes tightly and listened. The most striking thing was that there were deep scars on this man's eyelids and he was holding a cane in his hand.

The crowd around them saw that Yixiao was blind, but they did not dare to underestimate him, especially since Yixiao became the winner of the Eighth Sea District in today's audition:

While chatting and laughing, he pulled out his three-point staff sword with a smile and flashed three inches of cold light, causing all the players on the field to freeze.

With Yixiao as the center, within a radius of several thousand meters, gravity increased dozens of times under his control.

The doubled gravity forces the contestants to drop their weapons, and the excessive gravity compresses the contestants' bodies, causing their faces to turn red and their limbs to tremble.

Dozens of players closest to Yixiao were all pressed to the ground, like stones thrown into a pond, spreading in circles. These players fell down one after another like wheat. Amidst the roar,

The entire arena was cracked and dented several inches downward.

After a while, except for a smile, not a single player stood up.

The dealer's shout interrupted the gambler's memories, and the dice cup hit the gaming table with a "bang": "Buy the deal and leave—!"

At this time, Yixiao suddenly said: "I will buy a big one."

"I want to buy a big one too!"

“You’re right to follow this guy and buy it!”

The surrounding gamblers all followed Yixiao's bets, and cold sweat broke out on the male dealer's forehead. This customer named Yixiao had won thirteen consecutive bets and won a lot of chips.

This is still the most important thing. After seeing Yixiao guessing right every time, the nearby gamblers also followed Yixiao and placed bets. If it weren't for this guy's strength, he couldn't help but call the nearby guards.

Drive Yixiao out of the casino.

"--open!"

"Four-four-six, big!"

"Won again!"

"Hahaha, I just said follow this guy and place your bet."

"Oh, if I had known earlier, I would have placed a bet with Mr. Yixiao."

After hearing this, Yixiao smiled and waved his hands: "I'm just a blind man. Guessing right depends on luck. It's not a good choice to bet with me."

"Mr. Yixiao, it's not good to be too modest." The man next to him chuckled and took the winning chips in front of him: "I won a lot by betting with you today!"

"Oh? You won a lot? Let's see..." Suddenly a voice came from behind.

"Oh, I will follow Mr. Yixiao and win..." The man's throat seemed to be stuck by someone else, and he suddenly couldn't make a sound.

"..." Yixiao seemed to sense some danger, quietly tensing up his body and quietly turning the direction of the staff and knife he was holding in his hand.

Eric glanced at the chips on the table: "I did win a lot."

"me……"

"Isn't the purpose of opening a casino just for tourists to come and have fun?" Eric patted the man's shoulder: "But, can you give me the seat next to Yixiao?"

The man hurriedly stood up and gave up his seat: "You, please sit down..."

"Don't forget your chips." Eric called to the man.

"Okay..." The man hurriedly took away his own chips. A few more chips fell on the ground, and he didn't even have time to bend down to pick them up.

Eric sighed: "Really, being so scared makes me a little hurt."

"Why did the famous Lord Kuilong come to see me specially?" Yixiao did not let down his guard. After all, the opponent was the Four Emperors and was hailed as the strongest creature in the world by the Navy Headquarters.

The surrounding crowd immediately dispersed, leaving a clear space, and the noise seemed to be far away.

Eric did not sit down next to Yixiao, keeping a reassuring distance: "I wonder, Mr. Yixiao, what do you think of the Kingdom of China?"

Eric picked up a chip from the ground and played with it in his hand.

Yixiao looked up at Eric, and his blindness did not prevent him from locking Eric's position: "It's a beautiful country."

"Really?" Eric glanced at the dealer: "Keep rolling the dice."

"..." The dealer rolled the dice silently.

"I wonder if Mr. Yixiao has ever heard of it? This place was originally occupied by Kaido. The land was barren and the people were in dire straits."

"I've heard of it." Yixiao nodded: "Under the governance of Your Excellency Kui Long, the people here are full of laughter and laughter. Your actions are completely different from other pirates."

"Oh, that's easy." Eric clapped his hands and said, "I would like to invite Mr. Yixiao to join the Kingdom of China."

"..." Yixiao looked solemn, and after a moment of silence, he finally spoke: "It's a great honor for Your Excellency Meng Kuilong to value me."

"I am very grateful to His Majesty the Emperor for his trust and even condescended to invite me personally. It is really touching."

"But -" the joke changed: "I have ambitions in my heart, so I must not join the Kingdom of China."

The Four Emperors and the World Government are mortal enemies, and Eric is the emperor of the Kingdom of China. Once he joins the Kingdom of China, he will be labeled a pirate for the rest of his life.

The reason why Yixiao came to China to participate in the World's No. 1 Martial Arts Tournament was because he wanted to take this opportunity to expose his strength to the navy and gain a greater say.

Although when passing through Dressrosa, I heard countless people express their gratitude to Eric, and I also heard here that Eric had a good reputation for governing the Kingdom of China.

But Yixiao believes that the world government is the orthodoxy, and when he becomes a senior member of the navy, he will definitely...

"Mr. Yixiao." Eric suddenly asked: "The reason why you don't join the Dawn Pirates is because you want to join the navy, right?"

"Oh?" He smiled and was startled, then said with a smile: "Why does Your Excellency Kuilong think so?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Guess." Eric shrugged, I can't say that I know you will become a naval admiral in the future, right?

"Not bad." Yixiao nodded and admitted, sweating in his heart at the same time.

"But, Mr. Smile." Eric said, while keeping his chips small: "Even if you become an admiral, you can't change the world."

Yixiao pushed the chips up: "I'm all ears."

"The Navy is an agency under the World Government. If the problems left by the World Government are not resolved, the Navy will always be shackled by the World Government."

"Mr. Yixiao, have you heard what I did to the Tianlong people?"

"Heard something."

"Do you agree?"

"..." Yixiao remained silent.

"In other words, do you agree with the world's nobility retaining the system of slavery?"

The croupier raised the dice cup: "Small!"

Eric clapped his hands and said: "Ha, I won!"

"I'm sorry." Yixiao said while leaning on his staff and sword: "No matter how corrupt the world government or navy is, they are still better than those pirates who do all kinds of evil."

Eric replied: "I agree with this statement."

"..." Yixiao didn't expect Eric to admit it, and was stunned on the spot.

"So, I am not the captain of the pirate group now, but the emperor of China."

"What difference does it make?"

"I can save the citizens of the Kingdom of China from suffering, and I can also save people all over the world." Eric stood up: "Mr. Yixiao, if you can, please carefully visit the Kingdom of China and see what other people have died because of paying the heavenly gold.

The impoverished franchise countries finally go to the Chambord Islands to experience the slavery system of the Celestial Dragons."

Eric turned and left: "The world is not the world of the five old stars, but the world of the world."

Yixiao stayed where he was, and his gambling luck was just like Eric's leaving. That night, he never won again.

"How's it going?" Kuang San said with a slight smile, "Did Yixiao agree?"

Eric shook his head: "The more powerful a guy is, the more determined he is in his own path. I hope he doesn't join the navy."

Esdeath suggested: "Tie him over directly."

"This will make him even less likely to join us." Eric covered his forehead: "Forcing is a bad idea. For these strong men, death is not a threat."

"I said, it's already so late, you should go back to your room." Kuang San glanced at Esdeath.

"I'm here to see Eric." Esdeath put her hands on her hips and raised her chest: "What does it have to do with you?"

The atmosphere immediately cooled down.

Eric's eyes moved wildly and the corners of his mouth raised: "Now that you're here..."

"Ah?" The two women stared, scaring Eric half to death.

"The quarter-finals are about to begin, all players please get in position as soon as possible."

At this time, most of the contestants who advanced to the top eight had already appeared on the stage, except for one person who did not appear.

"Who do you think will advance to the semi-finals?"

"The drawing hasn't started yet, and we don't know everyone's opponent. How can we possibly guess it?"

"Right."

"By the way, out of eight winners, why are only seven appearing?"

"Yeah..." an audience member recalled: "It seems to be called Yixiao. I have never heard of this name before."

"You must be scared to death, right?" Another person sneered: "This time there are masters such as the Four Emperors, the world's best swordsman, the Ice Queen, etc. It is already very good for an unknown guy to break into the audition."

"Have you not seen his strength?" one of them retorted: "He only showed a blade and defeated thousands of contestants in a few breaths of time."

"Then why doesn't he dare to show up today?"

"This..." The man was speechless.

Suddenly, an audience member asked loudly: "Who do you think is the strongest in the world?"

"It must be Whitebeard." Someone said: "Whitebeard is a great pirate who competes with the Pirate King Goldo Roger. He has been galloping on the sea for decades!"

"Don't forget, the three most powerful generals in the navy did not participate in the martial arts competition. It is too early to say that they are the strongest in the world."

"Haha." Someone sneered: "The navy dares to come to the pirate country, are you out of your mind?"

"You fart, how dare you slander the country established by His Majesty the Emperor!"

"You are ugly, and your mouth smells bad, hetui..."

The audience in Shenzhou Kingdom was very angry, and then their anger surged and was directed at the speaker.

There are endless discussions about who is the strongest in the world and who will win the pure gold. There are many contestants in the auditions, and now there are only eight contestants left, so there is a lot to guess.

Eric frowned: "Where did this guy go?"

Chitong shook his head and said: "The staff went to the hotel where Yixiao was staying to look for someone and found that he was not in the room."

Eric whispered: "There is no guy who can defeat Yixiao silently. With his ability and strength, if there was a fight last night, the scale of the battle would definitely not be small..."

"Hey, Thunder Boy." Charlotte Lingling narrowed her eyes and asked, "How long do I have to wait here?"

"..." Eric looked at BigMom expressionlessly for a moment, then turned to Tezolo and nodded.

"Ahem!" Tezzolo understood and raised the microphone: "The drawing ceremony for the quarter-finals will begin next!"

The auditions are all shady, and the quarter-finals are equally shady. Eric used Da Vinci's technology to contact Tezzolo to secretly manipulate the results of the lottery, thereby affecting the schedule:

Mihawk VS Scathach;

Newgate vs Esdeath;

Shanks VS Yamato;

Charlotte Lingling VS Yixiao.

Judging from the current strength of Esdeath, Scathach and Yamato, they are no match for Big Mom, and Big Mom will even take this opportunity to kill her, just because Yixiao is not there, pushing the battle between the two of them to the end.

"Scathach." Mihawk pulled out the black knife from his back, and his calm pupils were full of excitement: "I have been looking forward to fighting you since the first time I saw you."

The red magic gun flipped in Scathach's palm, and finally the gun blade pointed diagonally at the ground: "Me too."

"bring it on!"

The black knife Night made a vague buzzing sound. Mihawk looked at Scathach, raised the supreme sharp knife, and put his hand in an attack posture. A terrifying sword intent burst out from Mihawk's body.

Let his whole body turn into an unsheathed sword.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Scathach's figure disappeared suddenly, his body and the spear merged into one, and with unstoppable momentum, he rushed towards the world's greatest swordsman.

Seeing Scathach rushing towards him, Mihawk's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light. The black knife in his hand moved as he wanted. In an instant, the blade drew a dark arc like a full moon, slashing towards the demon that turned into a red stream of light.

gun.

"clang!"

The sword energy and the gun blade collided with each other, erupting with endless wind pressure. The sword energy shattered, the storm roared, and a layer of land was blown away from the island.

"So gun-minded? Not bad!"

Mihawk narrowed his eyes slightly, waved his hands again, and a magnificent green slash wave struck Scathach again.

Scathach did not choose to take a hard hit this time. He stepped hard with his right foot and suddenly rose up, avoiding the horizontal sword energy.

The slashing wave landed on the rock wall behind Scathach, and the hard rock was split into two.

Scathach was like thunder, drawing a straight line in the air and arriving in front of Mihawk in the blink of an eye.

The crimson magic gun held tightly in his hand turned into a stream of red thunder and stabbed Mihawk directly.

Hawkeye raised his sword to block the thunderous gun blade. The sword and gun clashed, and a terrifying force was transmitted along the blade.

Mihawk touched the ground with his feet and slid a few meters away, finally stopping his retreat.

Scathach held her left hand empty, and an identical red spear appeared out of thin air in her palm.

Mihawk's pupils shrank, and with a flick of his wrist, he deflected the opposing spears, bent his legs, and bent his body downward to avoid Scathach's second direct blow.

The seemingly bulky black knife Night looked like a swimming dragon in the hands of Hawkeye. A flash of divine light flashed across his sharp eyes, and the blade suddenly lifted.

The sudden close attack made Scathach's eyes sharpen. He turned his wrists and crossed his two magic spears to block the black knife.

"Dang Dang Dang——"

Within a few seconds, Scathach and Hawkeye refused to give in to each other and attacked each other for more than ten rounds.

Air waves surged and the ground cracked.

"Why don't you use your powers?"

Scathach said calmly: "You have no ability."

Mihawk's eyes flashed with an unprecedented look.
