Chapter 272

"Alright, you can go inside, go inside and divide into groups. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" The woman quickly memorized the list and placed the plain-looking information sheet on the tall list that was already stacked next to it.

"Grouping? what's that?" Rhodes asked.

The woman rarely explained to this strange guy: "The competition will be divided into five zones: A, B, C, D, and E, and each district will have a large group to compete, and the last person in each group will advance. ”

"That's right, I see. Rhodes lifted his hood slightly and gave the woman a smile, "Thank you!"

"Ah...... You're welcome. The woman blushed inexplicably, her heart beating involuntarily, and she looked at Rhodes in the distance and whispered, "I always feel like I've seen that guy, Augustine? ”

"Hey, I don't remember. The man behind Rhodes couldn't help but ask when he saw that the woman was already out of the world.

"What's the hurry!" the woman pursed her lips and continued to register nonchalantly, repeating the mechanical movements in her hands, and in her heart, her mind had been pulled away by Rhodes.

……

After entering the inside of the bullfighting arena, Rhodes found that there were many routes here, and he could only blindly follow the people who had signed up before, if he was the only one here, he might not have found a place to participate in the competition when the game started......

"If you have completed your registration, please come here and be divided into groups. The sound of the radio echoed in the hall, and the hall was full of people who had signed up and were going to be grouped, and in Rhodes's opinion, the number of people who signed up was much more than in the original book, after all, the shock fruit resounded throughout the world because of Whitebeard.

"I'm ......" Rhodes was suddenly entangled in a question, "Should I eat the Shock Fruit or not?"

If Teton is here, he will definitely blow up again: Hey, hey, where did you get your confidence?!, the game hasn't been compared, why have you already started to think about how to deal with the Shock Fruit?!

The group was not as fast as expected, because there were so many players in the competition this time, and it was estimated that it would be half an hour later when the Rhodes were divided.

Just when he was bored, Rhodes swept into a few well-known people.

Cavendish is a supernova of the same class as Ace, and he is equally famous, and he was very impressed with this person when Rhodes read the original book. When he shocked the world with a bounty of 280 million, the newspaper that reported on him was stolen by women overnight because it had his portrait on it, of course Rhodes thought about it, but although he was not bad-looking, he was not as good as a naturally beautiful person like Cavendis.

In addition to the high-profile supernova taking part in the competition, there was also a man with a grass-green cockscomb head that caught Rhodes' attention. This person is Bartolomeo, and the reason why Rhodes has an impression of him is not because he has an arrogant personality and is the No. 1 in the real-time ranking of pirates who want to disappear the most, but because this guy is a brain-dead fan of the Straw Hat Pirates.

"This guy seems to have entered the New World a year early...... Why is that......" Rhodes thought about what kind of storm his little butterfly wings had caused in the past seven years, and what the world had become.

In fact, the reason why Bartolomeo entered the New World a year earlier was really because of Rhodes, because three or four days ago he was still wandering around the Great Voyage, and when he heard that his idol Rhodes was 'dead', he didn't want to believe all this, and entered the New World early, wanting to avenge Rhodes.

When he learned that Badgers, the Blackbeard Pirates, was coming to Dressrosa, he followed, and in his heart, everyone in the Blackbeard Pirates had been sentenced to death.

"He also came. Rhodes thought only briefly about Bartolomeo's early entry into the new world, and soon his attention was diverted by another.

It was a man with short, wavy blond hair in a top hat with goggles hanging from it, and Rhodes had met him a few days ago, and it was Sabo.

"People from all the major forces are here too. Rhodes smacked his lips, "I don't know who the Navy will send, I don't know the progress of the World Conscription at all, have the vine tigers and green cows been excavated?"

He took a few steps around the corner, he didn't want to be noticed now, Dressrosa was now mixed up because of the Shock Fruit, and this was not the time for Rhodes to appear.

"It's really troublesome, it looks like it has to pass. When Rhodes saw Ace next to Sabo, he sighed and walked over.

When he was separated from Marco, Marco instructed him that he must contact Ace as soon as possible and tell him about the current situation, of course, Rhodes can't help Marco with this.

"You two...... Are you here to join in the fun?" said Rhodes quietly behind Sabo and Ace.

Sabo and Ace turned to look at Rhodes together.

Rhodes pulled his hood up, revealing his face.

"Luo ......" Ace's mouth opened wide, and the word Rhodes was about to blurt out, and Sabo's eyes widened in disbelief.

Rhodes covered Ace's mouth and pulled his hood down again: "Don't say this out loud." ”

"You...... They ......" Ace forced himself to calm down.

Rhodes pulled them into a corner and told them what had happened.

"Is Marco the only one who survived?" said Ace, who was in a frustrated mood, referring to the Whitebeard Pirates.

"In this battle between the queen and the palace, only the three of you survived...... Is Blackbeard Tić's strength already strong enough to be like that?You've killed a few important cadres, but you've added it to Kuzan, it's hard to predict how terrifying their current strength will be!" Sabo couldn't help but want to tell Dorag this information now.

"Let's take a look at it, everyone has done their best. "Now it's time to get stronger, and only then can you pay your dead companions." “

"I see!" Ace replied seriously instead of crying.

"That's right!" Rhodes smiled, "Marco will be very happy to see you like this!"

Ace said heavily: "Thank you, Rhodes, the duel between you and me will be held in this arena!"

"It couldn't be better. Rhodes is also looking forward to fighting Ace, one is to see how strong he is, and the other is to see how strong Ace is.

"Then it's a certainty. Ace stretched out his fist.

Rhodes' fist bumped into Ace: "A word is a deal." “

……

The time spent in line was about the same as Rhodes expected, and after half an hour it was his turn to draw, and he drew Group B, and Ace was in Group E, although they were not in a group, they were both confident that they would advance, and they could still have a decisive battle after qualifying, so the grouping did not affect them.

There is no need for Rhodes to stay in the bullring arena after the formalities are completed, the match will only start tomorrow, and there is no need for him to stay here at all.

As he left the bullfighting arena, Rhodes saw Chloe and the others, he deliberately lowered his hood so that it was impossible to tell who he was, and he smiled indifferently as he passed by Chloe.

"Let me see how far the pirates can go without me. “
