Guan Liyuan and Rebecca arrived for the competition on time the next day, and apparently Baby-5 didn't report them after fleeing from his home.

During this period, Rebecca was still a little worried about Baby-5's appearance, but Guan Liyuan only comforted her to play hard......

In Guan Liyuan's view, Baby-5 is not without basic comparative ability, firstly, because of the "call of the heart", and secondly, it is ...... Guan Liyuan has been doing whatever he wants these days...... Ah no, it's what she did, and she didn't have no feelings.

It's like the "easy" backlash of Baby-5 in the original work, and it's not purely because of nymphomaniac, not to mention that Lao Cai has nothing to do with nymphomaniac, except for "self-attack", Guan Liyuan suspected that Baby-5 really wanted to die at that time, but was stopped by Lao Cai......

The atmosphere of Don Quixote's family, Guan Liyuan now understands the same, it seems to be called "family", as if it is really united, but in fact, what most people adhere to is just the bond with Doflamingo, and most of the cadres are not affectionate to each other, even if they are caring, they don't feel like companions.

And what about Doflamingo with Baby-5?

Although there is no clear explanation in the original work, it ...... Guan Liyuan knows a lot of people who are in a similar situation to Baby-5, such as Shiro, such as Jun Malu, and some crazy people under Aizen......

However!

The situation of other people is actually lighter than that of Baby-5, but it is like Jun Ma Lu against Orochimaru, a few crazy people who break the face of blue dyeing, or Bai who did not meet Guan Liyuan before Bai Zai and no more...... All are absolutely loyal.

After satisfying their "sense of being needed" in the person who needs them, they will self-rejecting others.

But Baby-5 is different, and it has to show this "sense of being needed" to everyone!

Therefore, Guan Liyuan has reason to believe that even if Doflamingo is willing to "pretend" more, he will be able to completely envelop Baby-5, but for so many years, he has not done so...... After all, the importance of Baby-5 to Don Quixote's family is far less important than that of Shiraku-no-Zaibu, and Junmaro-to-Orochimaru.

Baby-5 is not ignorant of this, but for her, Doflamingo is always the "first person who needs her", so she does not show dissatisfaction.

Guan Liyuan had the opportunity to directly replace Doflamingo, but he still gave up, just as he refused to become his own "object" under the order of Bai Zaibu Zai, but hoped that she would have her own will.

Although he has experienced countless worlds, Guan Liyuan's clear and jade side has not been corroded......

Even if he hooks up with a mermaid princess, calculates honestly, and cheats women out of money, Guan Liyuan knows that he is a good person!

Back in the sword fighter competition where Guan Liyuan was located, at the beginning, there were hundreds of free sword fighters who signed up, and nearly 1,000 prisoner sword fighters and slave sword fighters were in the largest gladiatorial arena together, crowded to listen to Pika's speech.

In the preliminaries, Doflamingo obviously won't come out.

Pika's voice, contrary to his size, was sharp, thin, and small...... If it weren't for the loudspeaker, in such a large occasion with a large number of people, if you want to listen to him, I'm afraid it will be a test of seeing and hearing domineering.

"Poof...... a Freedom Sword fighter who only held a heart armor and was about the same height as Guan Liyuan couldn't help but laugh.

Pika's words were immediately terminated, and the sword fighters who knew Pika around him suddenly showed a look of fear, but the free sword fighters who laughed out loud looked left and right with hindsight......

At this moment, behind the laughing sword fighter, a huge stone head suddenly emerged from the ground - it was the appearance of Pika.

Immediately, the huge stone head bit directly at it...... Or rather, swallow it!

"Ahh

With a scream, the stone head had retracted to the ground, and the target had disappeared in place, leaving only a pool of blood......

Pika is a superhuman "Stone Fruit" ability, but because she has "Fruit Awakening", she can not only turn her body into rocks, but also control the rocks in the outside world!

Although only a sword fighter disappeared, the scene seemed to be quiet and deserted.

Pika continued, and there wasn't so much nonsense, mainly about the rules of the preliminaries!

The rules of the preliminaries may be different for each Sword Fighter Tournament, but the finals, that is, from the quarterfinals, must be a one-on-one battle, and there are no other rules.

The rules of this year's preliminaries are a little different from before......

There were a total of 1,677 ...... this session Ah no, there are only 1,676 sword fighters participating, and then they will be divided into four groups of more than 400 people, and each person will draw a number starting with 1.

Then there are rules similar to the challenge ring, No. 1 plays first, and then No. 1 chooses to challenge several people, for example, if you choose 3 people, the players with the three numbers of "2, 3, and 4" will play together, and No. 1 can earn 3 points if he wins, and he can choose to continue the challenge or get off the field, and if he loses, "2, 3, 4" will each earn 1 point.

Each person can challenge up to three times, and after winning three times, they must leave the game, and a player who has not lost before will be released from the ranks, and if the challenge fails, or if they lose when others challenge the quota including themselves, they will be disqualified to play again.

In the end, the two people with the highest points in each group advance to the finals!

The sword fighters are obviously simple-minded guys, and Pika's expression ability is not as strong as the legendary Dongdong, so they are confused and think about the rules one by one......

"This year's rules are very interesting, in addition to strength, the wisdom of choice, and luck are all very important!" Guan Liyuan said.

Rebecca is also a relatively smart one, and at this time she has already reacted, and said with some worry: "In this way, if the serial number is very high or very backward, it will be very disadvantageous......

That's right, if the serial number is very high, because there is no reference, the number of opponents selected is too small, and the final points may not be enough, and if there are too many choices, the strength may not be enough, but the chicken flies and the egg fights.

And if the serial number is very low, when it is your turn to play, there will be very little room for choice, and everyone behind you may not have enough points together!

Of course, in addition to the luck of the serial number, there is also the luck of "whether there is a strong player" around your own number.

More than 1,600 people, the strength is high and low, and the lucky ones are surrounded by experienced babies, and the bad luck is next to the stronger than themselves, and they are directly in a round of tours......

The results of the draw came out quickly, a total of four groups, each group of 419 people, after the number was drawn, everyone did not have to announce it, so as not to be targeted.

However, after the draw, Rebecca came to Guan Liyuan with some grievances on her face, and whispered, "Mr. Guan...... I—I drew number 419!"

For Guan Liyuan, Rebecca doesn't think there's anything to hide.

That's right, the legendary penultimate number one, can only rely on the number of others to challenge when including himself, one point at a time, he has no chance to challenge at all......

"I guess it's the first group. Guan Liyuan said.

"Huh, how does Mr. Guan know?" Rebecca was aggrieved and a little puzzled.

"Because I'm also the first group of ......," Guan Liyuan said, taking out the number plate of "one group of No. 1".

It's in the interests of the Don Quixote family!

You don't need to look at Guan Liyuan to know that from the 2nd onwards, there must be a large line of sword fighters, who are members of Don Quixote's family or have been bought.

The Don Quixote family's interests were expected to be that Guan Liyuan died on the field, and Rebecca was insulted and had no chance to get ahead......

"W-This must be cheating!" Rebecca said angrily.

If it is said that she drew No. 419 alone, it may be an accident, then Guan Liyuan drew No. 1 at the same time, which is obviously abnormal!

Of course, it is indeed cheating, Guan Liyuan has already found out, but he doesn't like to speak out - Guan Liyuan's only headache for cheating is to draw him and Rebecca to adjacent numbers, so he can only eliminate Rebecca first.

But now although it is the same group, it is the same end, Guan Liyuan feels that this result is completely acceptable......

"Don't worry, we're stable!" Guan Liyuan smiled gently.
