Chapter 106: Martial Arts Tournament
The three of them put their heads together and began to discuss the details.
Only half an hour later, the general process of this Martial Arts Tournament was finalized.
The Martial Arts Tournament that was originally supposed to be held within the ship was changed to be held publicly in East Blue.
Gawain directly copied the process of bullfighting in Dressrosa.
He would set up four major arenas and start a battle royal.
The four people who stand at the end of each arena will advance to the top 16 and then face off against each other.
The winner will advance to compete for the championship!
In the first Martial Arts Tournament, all the members of the White Knight Pirate who were willing to participate would join, and at the same time, other people were accepted to register, which was also a model for the subsequent annual events.
After this session, the general ranking of the White Knight Pirate was determined.
If new members join, they will start challenging others from the lowest ranking step by step.
The final winner of the Martial Arts Tournament will leave their name in the hall of fame and obtain a bonus and other rare treasures.
"As for the prizes… The auction house in Loguetown often sells famous swords or Devil Fruits."
"But because it is the execution site of King of the Pirates, many pirates make trouble there every day. If someone carries a lot of cash and doesn't have a certain strength, it is easy to be targeted."
"The next auction should be in half a month."
After saying that, Gaza blinked and looked at Gawain; the meaning couldn't be more obvious.
Gawain smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I can transfer some money to you first so that… Never mind, I'll go to Loguetown myself."
Gaza nodded vigorously.
"The affairs in the harbor cannot be separated from you. I'm the only one who can handle that bastard who plays with cigarettes."
Gawain then conveyed the adjustments to the Martial Arts Tournament to his crew.
Those who are satisfied can participate in the internal ranking battle to improve their own ranking.
The ranking within the Pirate crew will be arranged according to the results of this Martial Arts Tournament. If there is any person unsatisfied, they can challenge him.
In the meeting room, after listening to Gawain's story, Sanji's eyes were shining: "If I win, my heroic appearance will be seen by everyone!"
"That means I will have a bigger stage this time, even facing all the civilians and nobles in the East Blue."
"When the time comes..."
Sanji's nostrils were visibly enlarged, and his hands even made an indescribable curve.
"Idiot!"
Nami, who was standing shoulder to shoulder with him, punched Sanji on the head and knocked him to the ground.
Bang!
Sanji's head was visibly bulging, and it was even steaming.
Zoro glanced at the two of them, curled his lips at Sanji, and ignored him.
His attention was completely attracted by what Gawain said: "An open Martial Arts Tournament?"
"The whole East Blue, no, it might even attract monsters from the Grand Line."
"To fight against such a strong man, I'm afraid my current strength is not enough."
"It seems that I can't slack off in the next three months."
Nami glanced at Zoro inconspicuously and muttered: "If you want to keep training, you might as well eat, drink, defecate, and urinate in the training room."
Zoro turned his head and looked at Nami in confusion: "Huh?"
The latter smiled politely but elegantly: "Nothing."
The Nyaban Brothers, who had just eaten a Devil Fruit, Gin, who wanted to become Gawain's deputy captain, and even Van Augur, who had just joined the group and whose mind was full of money, were all eager to try.
"Fighting in a fixed range is not fair to a sniper."
"But fate is sometimes so unpredictable. Fights can happen at any time, and it would not always be on a battlefield where I have an advantage."
Van Augur frowned, put down the sniper rifle in his hand, and took out a pair of revolvers from under his coat.
After carefully adjusting them, he nodded with satisfaction: "At this time, this thing needs to appear!"
Gin glanced at him, then looked at the two revolvers and felt a sense of crisis: "You are more dangerous than you look!"
"Well."
Van Augur shrugged and looked at Gin with fear in his eyes: "I can't compare with a monster like you."
"But."
Van Augur raised his chin and said lightly: "Except for the three of you monsters, I won't lose to anyone else."
Then he looked around, and his sight passed the Nyaban Brothers and met with Zoro.
The four eyes met, and there was a faint lightning in the air.
Zoro said without showing any weakness: "What a coincidence, I thought so too, and I also want to see how strong Gin is."
Gin's face was calm, but his heart was filled with a sense of urgency. "You will see it."
Now, he can still suppress these ambitious newcomers with strength, but with the passage of time, the gap between the two sides was shrinking.
"It's time to find a way to break through my own limit."
"Whether it's the Haki power that Mr. Gawain said or the Devil Fruit."
"My companions are getting stronger; how can I stop here?"
At the conference room, Gawain took in everyone's reactions and nodded with satisfaction.
It seems the reorganization of the Martial Arts Tournament this time not only did not make these leeks lose their fighting spirit but instead made the tense atmosphere between them even stronger.
That's great!
That night, these motivated leeks handed in a perfect report card to Gawain.
"Physique experience +781!"
"Swordsmanship..."
"Sniping experience +62!"
"Devil Fruit: Zoan Type experience +50!"
"Navigation experience +60!"
Inside the room, Gawain listened to the familiar system prompt sound, and the expression on his face was complicated and a little weird.
Then, a familiar character panel appeared in front of Gawain:
[Host: Gawain]
[Age: 24]
[Identity: Captain of the White Knight Pirate]
[skill:↓]
> Swordsmanship: Level 10 (6413/12000 ) Feature: Swiftness, Extreme Force
> Physique: Level 10 (8361/12000) Feature: Equilibrium, Harmony
> Pussyfoot Maneuver: Level 5 (1451/2500) Feature: Flash Step
> Observation Haki: Level 3 (2411/3200)
> Armament Haki: Level 1: (288/1000)
> Navigation: Level 5 (165/Max)
> Devil Fruit, Red Dragon: Level 1: 60(2000)
> Sniping: Level 1 (108/400)
[Badge: ↓]
> Captain's Fury: Subordinates' physical strength recovery speed +20%.
> Rising Fame: You can check the potential level of your subordinates.
> A bounty of over 100 million: The Favor of the Sea (Used)
[Rating: Silver Limit, you have understood your true self, tempered your will, and taken the first step on the road to becoming the strongest!]
During this period, the practice was intermittent, and the experience of various skills has increased significantly, but it is not as evenly as before.
His rating has reached the silver limit, and as long as his skills level up, he can get one step closer and truly reach the gold level.
The experience of the Devil Fruit ability is undoubtedly contributed by the Nyaban Brothers.
The daily income of 60 is not much, but it is not less.
At least it is much faster than Gawain's own practice. But what really concerns him is the navigation and the sniping obtained from Van Augur.
"Is the navigation Level 5 my upper limit? I haven't even awakened a branch feature."
"That's right, this body has no talent in navigation. Otherwise, it wouldn't have sailed for several years and still only level one."
"The key is that even if the skill has reached the upper limit, these invalid experiences are still accumulating."
"It's just wasted."
