Chapter 111: The World’s No. 1 Martial Arts Tournament (Ch 111)

“Hey, hey, what’s wrong with you…”
Seeing that Alan didn’t care about the money he lent her, Ruolan had no choice but to puff out her lips and walk towards the martial arts gym.
Allen didn’t take Ruolan’s matter to heart.
Find Pepe and others and ask them about their next arrangements.
“Captain Allen, the annual event will begin soon. I would like to sign up to participate. The title of God of War sounds pretty cool.”
Alan looked at Pepe with amusement.
“Oh? Then I’ll join one too?”
Hearing Alan’s words, Pepe, who was just excited and clenched his fists, suddenly fell in expression. If you, old man, participate, then what’s the point of me playing?
“No… no, Captain Allen, do you still need the crappy title of Martial God?”
“Okay, I won’t join you. You can play by yourself. I’ll watch you from below. Don’t embarrass yourself.”
Pepe quickly patted his chest.
“Don’t worry! Captain, I’m offering a bounty of 296 million berries for the God Fist Pepe. It’s easy to capture the little war god.”
Alan looked at Pepe who was showing off. You are showing off in front of me? Believe it or not, I will let you know why the flowers are so red!
“It’s not bad. I caught up with my fraction.”
Pepe was immediately deflated. Why would I compete with a monster like you in bounty? I am also a cheap guy.
The group rested in Wushen City for a few days, and the world’s number one martial arts tournament also kicked off, with the competition venue being surrounded by crowds.
Seeing the eye-catching plaque, Alan complained madly in his mind.
“Number one in the world, the organizer is really awesome. If two great pirates come from the New World to fight, your Martial God City will sink into the sea.”
Pepe also successfully registered. This competition had disciples from various martial arts schools, as well as countless pirates and bounty hunters participating, resulting in a large number of participants.
There are sixteen arenas and thousands of contestants, and most of them have to wait for several rounds before it is their turn to compete.
Don’t ask how Allen knew there were thousands of contestants, because Pepe’s number was 1919, and it has to be said that his hands were really smelly.
As luck would have it, Alan saw Ruolan in the crowd again. It seemed that this woman also planned to participate in the world’s number one martial arts conference.
Just as everyone was waiting, the host’s voice reached everyone’s ears.
“Dear guests and contestants, I am sorry to have kept you waiting. I now declare the 47th World Martial Arts Tournament to begin.”
“Now, please invite the 46th champion, Mr. Jinfu, to show us the Martial God Gold Belt. Mr. Jinfu has won the championship for two consecutive years. According to convention, he will directly enter the top 16 and wait for his challenger to be born. The other 15 top 16 players will be selected from the 1,920 contestants this year.”
Following the host’s introduction, a muscular red-haired man came to the No. 1 ring and raised the golden belt representing the God of War to the sky.
“Come and dance before me, challengers, I will win the championship three times in a row this year.”
The arrogant words almost made Alan laugh out loud. Does Madara know that you are so awesome?
The crowd in the stadium also started to make a noise, with praises and curses ringing in the ears. This wave of hatred was very successful.
Seeing that someone was about to climb onto the stage to teach the former God of War a lesson, the host immediately shouted for the game to begin.
“Then the competition officially begins. Now, the contestants whose numbers have been called, please come to the corresponding stage to compete.”
I have to say that Pepe’s luck is incredible. There are 1920 contestants, and you draw number 1919. There are only 16 tickets in the ring, and number 1 doesn’t even get a chance to compete. If the competition gets too boring later, he will fall asleep.
Pepe looked at Alan’s depressed eyes, and obviously knew what he was thinking. He scratched his head awkwardly and said nothing.
After a morning’s work, nearly half of the contestants were finally eliminated, and Pepe easily knocked down his opponent with one punch.
Alan observed the woman named Ruolan and found that she also successfully advanced.
After the lunch break, the second round of the competition started immediately.
This time it’s 960 into 480.
After the second round of competition is completed, today’s competition will come to an end, and the rest will continue tomorrow.
Alan couldn’t say that he felt bored watching this game, he could only say that it was dull and uninteresting. Not even one person who caught Alan’s eye showed up. Perhaps it was because the opponent’s strength was not that good.
Early the next morning, the 480 qualified candidates arrived, including Pepe and Ruolan.
The match from 480 to 240 was not very eventful, as both Pepe and Ruolan easily defeated their opponents and advanced.
It wasn’t until the afternoon’s game that Alan showed some interest. Pepe’s opponent was a pirate with a bounty of 70 million berries, which was impressive enough in the Four Seas, but this was the Grand Line.
The other party obviously recognized Pepe and looked solemn.
“God Fist Pepe, a great pirate with a bounty of 296 million berries, a subordinate of the Destruction Monarch Twilight Allen, why would a big shot like you appear here?”
When Pepe saw that the other person knew him, he also became interested.
“Ah, I just happened to come here to do some work, and I felt like playing with it. What? Are you going to admit defeat?”
The organizer obviously also knew the backgrounds of the remaining contestants and knew that there was a focus battle here, so he switched the director’s screen to Pepe’s battle stage.
“Everyone, look! A focus battle is taking place on the 16th ring. The great pirate Sack from the West Sea, who has a bounty of 70 million berries, is fighting against the mighty general Pepe the Divine Fist under the command of the Lord of Destruction Twilight Allen.”
The host’s words made Ruolan, who had just finished fighting, stunned. Twilight Allen? Wasn’t that the man who had lent her money before?
“So it’s the Lord of Destruction. No wonder the name sounds so familiar.”
………..
Seeing that he was looked down upon by Pepe, Sack also showed an angry expression.
“Then let me see the power of the divine fist.”
As he said that, he raised his fist and hit Pepe, but the force he used was not enough for his liking.
Pepe easily caught the opponent’s fist with his chest and shook his head.
“Didn’t you eat?”
The pirate in front of him began to sweat.
“Is the gap so big? You are worthy of being a legend’s subordinate.”
As he spoke, he threw punches on Pepe’s chest like raindrops.
But his attack couldn’t even make it move a step.
“Okay, I don’t want to play with you anymore. Let’s watch my fight.”
The fist covered in armed color hit Sack’s face directly. The opponent was hit and flew out of the ring and fell to the ground, losing consciousness.
Sack’s younger brothers gathered around him, looking at him anxiously.
“Captain? How are you?”
“Are you all right, Captain?”
…..
“Okay, we can see that the God Fist Pepe easily defeated Sack from the West Sea, worthy of being the tough guy under that command.”
“Today’s competition has all ended. The 120 strong players have shown their talents. Let’s start the competition for the top 60 tomorrow morning. See you there.”
Seeing today’s game over, the audience dispersed like birds and beasts, looking forward to tomorrow’s game and talking about today’s exciting match with great relish.
