Chapter 155: Accepting David's Championship
The muzzle of the shotgun was pointed at Foxy and the three of them. Usopp couldn't help shouting when he saw the old man on stilts trying to protect Sherry regardless of his own body:
"Old man."
"She actually injured Xueli, who had waited so hard for so many years, like this."
"Wait a minute, grandpa, they are pirates." Luffy said, pointing at Foxy and the other three.
On the shore where the Golden Merrie was moored, Nami, Robin, Zoro, and Sanji were still standing on the deck, when all four of them jumped to the shore.
I saw the shadow of a huge ship emerging from the sea, and then, two equally huge chains stretched out from the huge ship.
These two chains just happened to surround the Golden Merli in the middle, which made the Golden Merli unable to move, and there was no way out on all sides.
Immediately, many people appeared from the huge pirate ship. These people may have stood too high, and they were standing on the light surface, so their faces could not be seen clearly.
Sauron had a bad temper. He raised his three swords and said to the people on the giant ship:
"What do you want to do? Stop whining. If you want to fight, come here now."
I saw the voice of pirates on the ship:
"Haha, fight? No, no, no, we won't fight you. The captain of your straw-dog pirate ship is dueling with the leader of our Foxy pirate group, and the David competition is about to begin."
In the giant ship, another voice came out:
"In the Davey Tournament, as long as the captains of both pirate groups shoot in the air at the same time, it is the prelude to the battle. Now our great captain is launching a great David challenge to your Monkey D. Luffy. "
"Are you challenging me? What are you talking about that is unrealistic? Didn't I just say that? If you want to fight, I will accompany you."
Sanji, Zoro's nemesis, stood behind with his hands in his pockets, a cigarette in his mouth, and then said:
"Hey, do you, a green guy, understand that the David Contest is a battle between pirates?"
As the archaeologist of the Straw Dogs Pirates, Robin is naturally well-informed, so he also said:
"Yes, I heard that there is an island called Pirate Paradise deep in the sea. This competition was originally born on that island.
In order to obtain better crew members, each pirate group uses this method to compete for each other's partners in the pirate group, that is, pirates rob pirates. "
On the huge pirate ship, someone responded to Robin's words and said:
"That's right, that's it. Some of you don't even know such a big thing in Pirates. It's really embarrassing to Pirates. It's a shame that you people have been Pirates for so long.
The David Contest, as the name suggests, is a competition for people. After the game, the winning pirate group can choose a crew member from the opponent's pirate group.
The chosen one will soon be loyal to the new captain, become one of the new captain's important subordinates, and will also swear an oath to David in the deep sea. "
Nami had been listening for so long. Although like Sauron, she had never heard of the so-called David Contest, she now had a general understanding of it, so she asked:
"In other words, if you lose, will your companions be taken away?"
After hearing Nami's words, someone in the Foxy Pirates said:
"That's right, if the winning party doesn't like any of the loser's crew, then the winning party is qualified to deprive the loser's ship of life. That's the symbol on the pirate ship."
"The bet is on the honor of our friends and the pirate ship. It's okay if we win, but if we accidentally lose, we will have to pay a heavy price." Sanji said to Nami with a serious face.
After hearing this, Nami suddenly thought of the strange and imperfect ship that the Golden Merry encountered in the pirate battle, that is, it had no flag and no sails.
The people on the Foxy pirate ship saw that Nami and the other four were silent, and then said:
"I think you have also encountered the Frog Pirate Ship. That ship was the loser in our last competition. Look, this is our new partner."
Nami and the others looked up and saw a fat guy followed by seven pirates. They saw these people shouting as they walked:
"Long live the Foxy Pirates."
"To tell you the truth, I am the captain of the ship just now."
"Original navigator."
"The original doctor."
"The original repairman."
"The original chef."
"We lost in multiple rounds, so all fourteen of us and the pirate flag were taken over by us. This can be said to be a annexation, haha."
Zoro said nonchalantly: "You guys who abandoned your companions, don't you feel ashamed?"
Only Nami and others knew that the ship that was originally the Tooth Frog Pirate Ship and the remaining crew members had been destroyed by the Sea Monkeys and all sank to the bottom of the sea.
After Nami learned the rules of the David Contest, she objected and did not want her crew to participate, but while the two sides were talking.
On the Long Chain Island, two gunshots were suddenly heard. The people on the Foxy Pirate Ship burst out laughing after hearing the gunshots.
Because they knew that their captain and the captain of the Straw Dog Pirates had already reached the challenge ceremony of the David Contest.
So everyone on the Foxy pirate ship shouted happily, and then celebrated.
Nami was very opposed to it. She didn't want to lose her companions. As a girl, Nami rejected such a competition in her heart.
But apart from Nami's intense reaction, Robin didn't feel anything. Sanji thought it was very interesting. Zoro was still a little opposed. He thought the same as Nami.
On Rey's side, after Rey had a serious understanding of the matter, he smiled slightly. No wonder the system didn't let Rey's combat power solve this matter.
It turned out that this David Tournament was so interesting. As a protagonist, Rey was not worried at all that he would encounter an unsolvable crisis in this tournament.
So compared to Usopp and Chopper's surprise, and Luffy's carelessness, Rey had no fear at all.
Anyway, even if something bad happened to this matter, as long as the system's task was completed, he could eliminate all the bad things with his powerful combat power.
So there was nothing to worry about. Rey planned to be an idle person and seriously participate in this so-called competition. Anyway, he still had 14 potential points, most of which were used to improve his swordsmanship.
It has been a long time since I last used swordsmanship. Rei believed that even if he could not use the power of the Thunder Fruit in the next period of time, it didn't matter. His swordsmanship was enough to solve these difficulties.
