Chapter 381 Am I a person who loves reading?
[Series at the beginning of chapters·Love Serials will stop for the time being 11·"Many Disasters"] [Being chased by wild beasts on a deserted island; suddenly encountering a storm at sea; being half-frozen to death on Winter Island; being too lazy to leave on Spring Island; being almost fainted from the heat on Summer Island; watching the fallen leaves on Autumn Island, feeling sad and crying; poor sailing skills, causing the boat to be tossed and tossed on the thundering sea, almost falling apart; happily docking on an island, but encountering a group of pirates... The wandering painter used exaggerated clown performances to attract the attention of the pirates, and the second-rate hypnotist Tilda secretly read a hypnotic spell in the background... While the pirates were crawling around in a daze, the stupid couple hurriedly ran away...]——
The World Economic News is indeed a giant that almost monopolizes the world's media industry.
The next morning, fresh newspapers came out, using several important pages to report on the World's No. 1 Swordsman Competition held on the resort island yesterday.
Rather... it is precisely because of the Bird-Bird Fruit-Albatross form of Morgans, the boss of the World Economic Society, that he can command and tame countless seabirds as news birds to deliver newspapers throughout the Grand Line, and thus truly form a news industry with a strong timeliness that covers the entire world...
I'm afraid the World Economic Society's industrial structure is the same as that of the Revolutionary Army, with corps commanders/branches set up in the four oceans of the southeast, northwest, and the Grand Line, radiating to the surrounding islands from these four oceans...
Lynch and Robin leisurely came to the hotel restaurant. While sitting down to have breakfast, they picked up today's newspaper on the table and read it.
Robin read the second half first, and gave the first half of the photos about the swordsman competition to Lynch to read first.
The reason why we didn't use the Moon Step to rush to the competition venue today was because we both woke up earlier than yesterday.
The reason I woke up earlier than yesterday was because I went to bed early.
While Lynch was sighing at the diligence of the World Economic News Agency reporters and news birds, he took a quick look at the series of reports about himself, "Giorno", and Robin, "Jollen".
Judging from the description and the picture of Robin, there is no trace of Nico Robin from the original time and space...
Only then did Lynch start to read the news reports about the remaining four preliminaries yesterday afternoon.
Sure enough, just as he expected, Hawkeye's efficiency in finishing the game was almost the same as that woman Armand and that monster Rain Shiryu.
They all walked onto the stage calmly, drew their swords at a speed so fast that the audience couldn't see, and then walked off the stage calmly.
It only takes a few seconds.
Fortunately, this kind of instant kill trend did not continue in the remaining three games... After all, not everyone is as ruthless and taciturn as Hawkeye, Shiryu, Armand and the others, nor is they like Robin who is a scholar and is not good at or likes fighting, so when he makes a move, he goes for a direct and straightforward approach like solving a problem, so it seems neat and tidy... As for Lynch's time, it was an exception among exceptions.
"I didn't go to the scene to see it, so I don't know whether Hawkeye used the black knife on his back or the small knife in the cross pendant on his chest to kill more than 40 swordsmen in a second."
Lynch finished reading the page of the newspaper and handed it to Robin.
Robin offered another page that she had finished reading, but Lynch pushed his hand away and refused.
Thank you, Sister Robin, but I’m not that fond of reading… Lynch conveyed this with his eyes and continued to look down at the game news.
Charlotte Mond may not be as strong as her sister Armand, but she is also the biological sister of Lady Oni (Harmony), the second daughter of Charlotte's family, and the sixth child of Sea Emperor Big Mom (with the eldest son, eldest daughter, and Katakuri triplets). As one of the four sisters, she has the same genes as Armand, and her strength is extraordinary.
Although the more than 40 swordsmen on the same stage were also quite skilled and had superb swordsmanship, and were somewhat famous in the first half of the Grand Line, even the report writer believed that the reason why Charlotte Mond finally won after 20 minutes of the game was not because she was too weak to compete with her sister Armand. It was very likely that she was just too lazy to swing her sword and wanted to let the people on the stage eliminate a few of them first...
"This neck is so fat that it can't be seen as a snake-headed tribe." Lin Qi thought, "In the comics, Big Mom's 39 daughters and 46 sons are just a cursory glance. They seem to be many and powerful, but there are not many people who leave an impression on people... The two sisters Armand and Mond, especially the ghost (harmonious) lady Armand, how far is she from the 'Four Dessert Stars'?"
Through Armand, Lynch can determine his current strength.
From the perspective of her status, Armand's aura is not inferior to that of a general. She is probably the kind of person who can fill the gap if any general dies... But no matter what, compared with the super popular Katakuri, there is definitely a big gap...
Katakuri, whose Observation Haki is so strong that he can foresee the future, and whose Armament Haki is so strong that he can swell Luffy's fist! Lynch estimated that even if he opened up his firepower, armored "BIB", and fully exploded his Armament Haki and Life Returning Iron Block, he might not be able to defeat Katakuri.
But it is not impossible to win.
That is to imitate Luffy and kill Katakuri...
Lynch, who has an extraordinary understanding of the return of life, is a complete physical monster even in this world of pirates.
Not only does he now have bottomless physical strength, but his recovery speed is also very fast. He can even take in food in advance to accumulate energy to make up for losses in a protracted battle... Even if it is absolutely necessary, when his own physical strength as the original body is exhausted, he can overdraw the physical strength of his stand "BIB" - as long as he can win, the worst that can happen is that he will suffer a little when retrieving the stand; if he loses, who will care about the future!
"What's the matter?" Robin put down the newspaper and asked with concern.
Lynch looked unhappy as he read the newspaper.
Lin Qi put down the newspaper and said earnestly, "There are so many powerful monsters in this world!"
Robin was confused and smiled, "You are one of them, right?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Lynch laughed, and Robin snapped his fingers to the waiters, asking them to bring breakfast quickly. Lynch was almost starving and had to go to the competition later, so it would be good to have breakfast for twenty people to fill his stomach first.
"A cup of coffee," Robin turned and asked Lynch with a smile, "How about you, or hot milk?"
Lin Qi smiled, "And flowers."
Robin laughed too.
The remaining two preliminary matches were nothing interesting to watch. As they lasted for more than fifty minutes, you could tell that the swordsman who won in the end was just so-so. They all seemed to be masters from the New World.
Lynch expressed sympathy for them.
The other six members of the quarterfinals are: Hawkeye, Armand, Mond, Shiryu, himself, and Robin... None of them are easy to mess with.
With a slight twist of her slender fingers, a few white and pink petals fell from her glistening fingertips and fell into the cup of hot milk.
Lin Qi picked up the flower milk tea and drank it all, then turned his head to look out the hotel window.
"BIB" stood at the window with his arms folded, looking out at the huge arena in front of him bathed in the morning sun...
“Oooooohh ...
The arena became noisy again. When people saw the man with Hawkeye, the Charlotte sisters, the evil man in military uniform, Giorno with thousands of swords raining down, the shocking and weird Jolyne, and the two great swordsmen fighting bloody battles slowly walking into the arena from different entrances and heading towards the huge arena in the center, the enthusiasm in the packed stands reached a new level.
When the eight qualified contestants began to draw lots, the host was also excitedly talking on the loudspeaker Den Den Mushi in his hand: "The legendary eagle-eyed lone ranger, Joracol Mihawk! The black sword behind him is the legendary black sword 'Night', one of the Twelve Great Swords! Rumor has it that few people have seen Mihawk use the huge supreme sword on his back, because most people who have seen him pull out the black sword are already dead! Will he pull out the black sword on his back in today's game?"
