Chapter 239: The tournament part 5
"Oh no, Hack the 100 dan, the teacher of fisherman karate has been defeated!" Said the commentator.
"There are 23 people left on block B. There is no way to tell who will win!."
"ugg!" The veteran-looking gladiator was knocked down by a powerful kick performed by a man from the long-legged tribe called Blue Gill.
'That's King Riku. I guess this is as far as he goes. If only the audience knew who was the man that was just defeated. How would they react ?' considered Vivi.
"The mysterious swordsman has been defeated by Blue Gill. We are getting close to the end of this battle royale!" The announcer exclaimed.
The warriors at the center of the arena were now being attacked on all fronts.
"Don't break the formation!" one of the soldiers yelled.
"Ahh!" several soldiers were slashed from behind by one of their allies.
"Damn you, Dagama!" the veteran soldier cried with rage at the man who attacked them.
"You traitor!"
"haha! warriors who can't use their brain won't last for long!" Dagama laughed.
Blue Gill joined in and started to take down the bodyguards of the fighter king.
"Good job, Blue Gill. Keep going." Dagama positioned himself behind the long-leg man and aimed his sword at his back.
Blue Gill was ready for this and kicked the other man's face, sending him out of the arena and into the waters filled with dangerous creatures.
"Wow so much drama, everyone is betraying everyone!." Vivi exclaimed with interest.
"Hpmh! , they shouldn't be that trusting to begin with. " Added Cavendish.
With his protectors defeated, the fighting king stood alone in the center, surrounded by the remaining fighters.
"What now, your Majesty Elizabello? There is nothing less reliable than a naked king." Blue Gill smirked.
The King laughed.
"You fools. You were the ones being protected by that formation. There is nothing more dangerous than a naked blade. Isn't that right, youngster?"
"Oh!, here it comes!. The punch is capable of decimating entire castles. The one punch King is ready to make his move !. " the commentator seemed to be getting more excited.
The audience, however, was starting to get worried.
"Destroying castles?"
"Are we going to be fine this close to the arena?"
The men surrounding the king were also starting to show some hesitation.
"Don't listen to that! those are just rumors! Let's beat him together." Called Blue Gill before jumping in the air. He aimed his most potent kick at the King's neck, but it never got to connect.
"King…PUNCH!"
A wave of energy engulfed the arena, blinding everyone and creating a strong blast of wind.
Vivi closed her eyes but was able to follow what was happening with the use of her haki.
"It looks like the winner has been decided."
"The king won?, shit, I can't see anything. And I think I lost my hat," complained Cavendish.
"No, the king is going to lose." Said Vivi.
"What?!" Cavendish shouted.
The arena was becoming visible once more. The dust was settling, revealing the aftermath of the powerful attack.
"What an amazing punch!" called the announcer.
"The only one remaining standing after that seems to be the King himself! That means that the winner of block B is…wait!. There is someone else."
"Look!, there is someone standing!"
"Who is it?"
"Someone blocked that punch?!"
The audience looked with interest.
"Him?!" Even Cavendish had a hard time believing what he was seeing.
"Barrier!" Bartolomeo was standing with arms crossed and visibly unharmed. A translucent wall in front of him was barely visible now.
"Haha!. I am a barrier man who ate the bari-bari fruit."
The King looked at him with a mixture of shock and anger. His breathing was getting heavy and he was covered in sweat.
But Bartolomeo was not planning on giving him any time to recover.
"Barrier crash!"
With a simple hand movement, Bartomeo sent his barrier smashing into the old king, knocking him out and ending the fight.
"I can't believe this…the Fighting King, Elizabello then second has been K.O…this means the winner is…Bartolomeo, the man-eater." The commentator did not seem happy to announce.
The audience was not happy either and they started to boo him.
"Haha, everyone, go to hell!" Bartholomew did not care and gave them the finger.
"Well, I knew he was stronger than he looked but did not expect him to actually win…oh well," Cavendish said.
He put his hat back and turned to look at Vivi.
"Miss Lucy, block C will start soon, we should get ready."
"Go on. I want to stay here for a minute," she answered.
Cavendish shrugged and went by himself.
Vivi used this opportunity to give the island a complete scan with her observation haki.
As soon as she pushed her ability, her senses increased dramatically and thousands of auras entered her reach.
"Oh, finally." She said softly as she was able to perceive the auras of Luffy, Franky, and Buggy south from her and getting close.
There were others far on the north of the island, she could feel some of her friends along with Law and…someone else she assumed had to be Caesar.
'So they brought him here after all….'
She finally found Zoro, Sanji, and Nami, getting close to her position from the east.
'They are finally here!' she thought with excitement.
'I just wish they would have stuck together, why do they always end up separating?, that just creates more trouble...oh well.'
But it didn't matter. She had to finish the tournament first. As soon as she had the devil fruit, she could go meet them.
"Hold on… "
She picked up another familiar aura entering the coliseum. Someone she did not expect to find here after she last saw him.
"Sabo?...wait"
The aura disappeared.
