After seeing Claire sitting on the rest seat, Athena's good-looking brow furrowed. But then Athena regained her composure and once again talked to Yuri Sakazaki and Mai Shiranui.

Hill, who was left out in the cold, found that he was not entertained, but he still stood next to the three teams.

At this moment, the Spine Fist Sect, which was also ignored, silently walked to Hill's side, and began to gnaw on buns in a sad atmosphere.

After seeing that he was not alone, Hill felt a little better, he leaned over to the side of the Spine Fist Sect, and said to the Spine Fist Sect in a tone of adversity and true love: "Alas, little brother, you were also squeezed out by them. Don't be discouraged, life is like that. ”

Hilton, who was about to talk endlessly and express his opinions at length, was interrupted by a question from the Spine Fist Sect: "Uncle, what's your name?" ”

This sentence instantly petrified Hill, who was still emotional and ready to boast about himself, and he touched his bearded chin, as if he had lost his soul, squeezed out two words from between his teeth: "Hill." ”

The Vertebral Fist Sect, who didn't feel anything wrong at all, asked again vaguely while eating steamed buns: "Well, then the team you are on is the Demon Team, right?" Are you the captain then? ”

Hill, who was asked two questions in a row by the Spine Fist Sect, was still grieving for the title of uncle, and without turning his brain, he replied in a daze: "I'm not the captain, the one on the stage is." After saying that, he pointed in Claire's direction.

The Spine Fist Sect, who was hiding his snickering by swallowing buns, held his cheeks and wanted to continue to use Hill's words: "So, what is his name?" Why did you and another guy make him captain? ”

However, after asking this question, Athena's crisp voice sounded in the mind of the Spine Fist Sect: "Fist Sect, come back, my mental power interference has failed." ”

The vertebral fist sect, who received the hint of Athena's spiritual power, stood up without hesitation, patted the ash on his buttocks, and slipped in the direction of his team without hesitation.

At this moment, no matter how sluggish Hill was, he could realize that the stinky boy in front of him was just playing tricks on him. He stared at the vertebral fist sect who had fled with wide eyes, pointed at him with his finger and shouted, "Okay, stinky boy, are you talking to me?" ”

However, at this moment, the Spine Fist Sect had already entered the ranks of those three martial artists. Ciel, who couldn't catch up with him and went for trouble, jumped a little angrily, but he was helpless.

"Nana, that person just now doesn't look like the same person that day, I asked you for this person's name, should you give me some reward?" The fist sect did not forget to stretch out his hands as he spoke, and his face made a flattering look.

Athena gave him a blank look as if speechless, and ignored the foodie anymore and paid attention to other things.

—————————————— preliminaries are over——————————————

The top of the R consortium, the chairman's office

A tall man sat in the boss's chair with his hands in his hands and watched the live broadcast of the game by the R consortium in the sports arena.

This is naturally the black-and-white overlord of the dark world - Lucar. Beside him was a delicate secretary girl, Mai Zhuo, who was feeding him fruit.

After the two sets of preliminaries were over, Lucardon, who was inexplicably excited, ignored the fruit handed over by the secretary next to him, and slapped the tiger skin boss chair under the seat with his big fan-like hand, and pulled his hoarse and ugly voice and laughed: "Hahaha! Well, that's great! It's great that so many good martial artists have come to my fighting tournament in Lucar, so that there will be a lot more in my collection room, hahahaha, yes, Mai Zhuo, you have a good idea, this is a good way to eliminate dissidents. ”

After laughing wildly, Lucar ate the piece of fruit that McZo handed him again.

Mai Zhuo, who had been smiling and groaning, had no change in his expression after hearing Lucar's praise, and responded in a soft voice: "How can it, this is all thought up by the boss, and they just gave the boss a suggestion~"

The charming and coquettish Mai Zhuo once again handed the fruit on the plate in his hand to the mouth of the majestic man in front of him.

Lucar seems to enjoy Mai Zhuo's praise of him like this, but this dark emperor doesn't seem to be interested in Mai Zhuo (otherwise this chapter may be harmonized, president, I support you), Lucar just enjoyed Mai Zhuo's service of handing fruits, and then held his chin to look at the winning team on the screen, the constant red light in the mechanical eyes made people shudder.

Stadium on the other side

Claire had joined up with the winning Colonel Seaton. It wasn't so much a rendezvous as it was because Ralph saw Claire in the ring and said hello loudly, and Claire could no longer pretend to be blind, so she went down to report the mission.

Claire and Colonel Seaton after they watched each other's games (Claire's game was in the first group, and the fury team was in the second group. They all identify with each other's strength.

The most obvious thing is that Ralph's attitude is much better, he is no longer as arrogant as when he first met Claire, when he found out that Claire's strength is not weak, although Ralph did not say that he deliberately went to Claire to get close, but his recognition can still be reflected in his demeanor.

As for Clark, the man in sunglasses, who was very sullen and didn't know whether he was in a mess, had not said anything before, but after seeing Claire this time, he handed Claire a cigarette.

In fact, Colonel Seaton didn't expect Claire's strength to be much stronger than he expected, he admitted that he underestimated Claire, but he didn't expect this kid's fighting talent to be as strong as his adopted daughter Liana, it's really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves!

No way, Colonel Seaton never planned to let Claire play an important role in understanding the actions of this fighting tournament until he had a specific understanding of Claire's strength. However, Claire made it to the official tournament, which he didn't expect.

But that's fine, this time the operation against the R consortium will be much smoother, and speaking of which, the man's strength should become stronger than before.

Thinking of this, Colonel Sidon touched his blindfold, and a trace of unwilling hatred flashed in his other intact eye.

After Claire stepped down from the rest seat, she secretly gestured hello to Colonel Sidon and their angry team, and then pulled Hill to stand in the designated position of the winning team.

Athena, who had been observing Claire, saw the angry team's attitude towards Claire, and some of the doubts about Claire in her heart were put down. But Athena's heart was filled with more question marks, she still couldn't figure out why Claire would attack her that day, and she didn't have anything to do with mercenaries or the government!

Athena decides to wait and ask Claire about it, and since there is no malice, it is always okay to tell the cause of the incident that day.

Claire observes the winners of the second group. The winning teams in the second group are not only not smaller than the teams in the first group, but are more famous than the teams in the first group.

With the exception of the Japanese team, which has shone brightly, several other teams are well-known in martial arts circles.

For example, the Hungry Wolves team of talented martial arts brothers from South Town and Muay Thai champions, named Terry Bogard and Andy Bogard, respectively. As for the Muay Thai king who only wore a pair of underwear on the side, his name is Dongzhang.

The Korean team from South Korea was also in the spotlight for a while, but the focus was on the tall, short, fat and thin combination in the ring. But they don't get as much attention as the Hungry Wolves, which most martial artists know.

Andy from the Hungry Wolves became the center of attention as soon as he appeared, not because he was so dazzling, but because his ninja girlfriend was looking for him to settle accounts.

"Okay, Andy, you left me alone in this competition and ran away by yourself, so I missed the first round of the plane to find you, do you know that the ticket is so expensive~ Really, every time you do anything, do you still think of me as your girlfriend?" After seeing Andy, Shiranui Mai, who had been smiling all the time, instantly sank his face and taught Andy a lesson.

Andy, who originally performed well on the field and had a very cold painting style, suddenly explained with a flustered face after being murdered by Shiranui Dance: "Xiao Wu, listen to my explanation, I originally wanted to go with you, but Dongzhang They had already bought a plane ticket, and you didn't answer when they called you, so I had to follow them." Eh, that, Dongzhang, don't you say? ”

Andy kept explaining and expressing with body language, and the way he danced made people believe that he was serious at the moment. However, when Dongzhang ignored Andy without being righteous, Andy's explanation seemed to be useless.

Sometimes, what a woman needs is not an explanation, but an apology, so the angry Shiranui Mai rushed forward, grabbed Andy's ear fiercely, and then began to sprinkle dog food on the martial artists and audience friends in front of the TV, it seems that the two did not react at all to what kind of critical blow such an act would give to everyone present.

After the same twitching of the corners of their mouths, the fighters on the winning team all turned their heads to focus on something else, and stopped looking at them.

"Attention fighters, please note that this fighting fund is exclusively sponsored by the R Foundation, R-bank, your most trusted wealth management bank. Well, welcome back, I'm your host and commentator, Rock Lee. ”

At this moment, Rock Lee, who was forcibly brushing up his presence with the microphone, paused, and then he announced: "Please note to the winning martial artists, the date of the official tournament is uncertain, but all the official finals will be held within a month, please leave your contact information, and the R consortium will give you a notice at the specific time, and the notice will be broadcast again....."

Without listening to the nonsense of the host on the stage, Claire lowered her head and began to ponder: What kind of medicine is being sold in the gourd of the R consortium? What will they do next?
