Chapter 8: Gladiatorial Fighting

"Do it!"

Hearing the captain's order, the pirates who had been impatient for a long time rushed forward one after another, looking like vicious dogs and mad demons.

In the face of the pirates rushing up, even though fear was already filled in their hearts, the guards of the escort team still met them without hesitation, like moths to a fire.

Seeing that Luke was just standing there, the captain of the guard couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, if Luke "Steel Sword" also moved, he was not sure that he would be able to drag Ray back.

The sonorous sound of metal collision continued to sound, and what people didn't expect was that the escort team actually had the upper hand for a while, and the guards who cooperated with the tacit understanding formed a solid defensive phalanx through shields and spears, firmly blocking the pirates from three steps away.

The swords commonly used by the pirates could not reach the guards hiding behind the shields, and the spears drilled out of the gaps in the shields were a brutal blow to the pirates who dared to approach, and the scene was frozen for a while.

"A bunch of waste, how can you go to the New World like this?" Seeing that his men were useless, Boatswain "One-Eyed" Mickey picked up his mace and rushed towards the defensive battle formation.

The captain of the guard in the center of the battle formation squinted his eyes, staring at the rushing Mickey, and his information flashed quickly in his heart, "'One-eyed' Mickey, with a bounty of 67 million Bailey, is born with divine powers, and often uses maces against enemies, so he can't be allowed to get close. ”

The battle formation quickly parted an exit, and the captain of the guard took his shield and sword and headed towards Mickey.

"Look for death!" Unexpectedly, no one would dare to challenge him, Mickey's one-eyed eyes widened, and he slammed his mace at the head of the captain of the guard with both hands.

The terrifying weight of the mace brought gusts of wind like a mountain falling down to crush people.

In the face of a terrifying blow, the captain of the guard did not dodge, but just lowered his body and raised the shield in his left hand above his head.

"Boom!" The loud roar briefly deafed the ears of the two, and the floor under the captain's feet was shattered to pieces by the tremendous force, but the blow was finally received.

After a little relief, the captain's nervous mood was replaced by excitement, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It seems that you are not as strong as I thought!" ”

The blow that was determined to be won was easily blocked, and the green tendons on Mickey's forehead burst out, and he roared and slashed the mace again.

However, this time the captain of the guard did not continue to make a hard connection, and gently dodged sideways, stabbing Mickey in the throat with a backhand.

The skin felt the sharpness of the blade, and Mickey immediately let go of the mace, bowing his head to dodge the deadly sword, and the long sword slashed through his scalp in a thrilling way, cutting off several hairs.

On the other side, the pirates were still helpless with the defensive battle array, and the little king and Hareda who were protected by the battle array in the middle stared nervously at the duel on the field.

"Mr. Haradra, do you think Captain Phoebe can beat that one-eyed pirate?" The little king asked worriedly, looking at the two people who were fighting together.

Although Hara is only a scholar, his eyesight is still stronger than that of an eight-year-old child, "Your Majesty, Captain Phoebe has always suppressed that pirate, and it must be only a few moves before he can win." ”

As soon as Hara's voice fell, the situation on the field changed.

The captain of the guard seized an opportunity to slash Mickey's right arm, forcing him to give up his weapon once more, and then pressed on him in an attempt to take him down in one fell swoop.

"Haha! Go to hell! A shield strike knocked Mickey to the ground, and the captain of the guard raised his sword triumphantly.

Just as he was about to cut off Mickey's head, the captain of the guard suddenly felt a sharp object in his back, "Stop! A shadowy voice came.

"Peter, why are you so slow?" Mickey, who fell to the ground, slapped away the long sword that was lying across his neck, and complained dissatisfiedly to Peter behind the captain of the guard.

"Isn't that safe?" With another opening, Peter's figure abruptly emerged from the air.

"I'm a transparent person of the transparent fruit, how about it? Isn't it surprising that I've never been exposed to outsiders. Peter stabbed the dagger lightly into the captain's body.

The astonishing reversal made the guards panic, even if there was a battle formation, it was in danger, and the little king wanted to rush out, but was suddenly hugged by Harda.

The situation is turning in an unfavourable direction.

......

The Holy Land of Mary Joya, the Third Colosseum.

The host's exaggerated voice spread throughout the square through the loudspeaker, "Hello guests, today is still the same as before, each Celestial Dragon Master can send a slave to determine the winner through one-on-one gladiatorial combat, and the owner of the final winner can get the reward of the competition." ”

The audience in the seats cheered, excited about what they were about to see, looking forward to blood, stumps, internal organs, and death.

Backstage, in a gloomy stone chamber.

The sound of heavy and powerful breathing was particularly clear in the small space, the sunlight shining through the gap shone on the red skin, and the cheers from outside were faintly heard, and a pair of brown eyes opened at dusk, "Damn, is it going to start again?" Fisher's throat, which had not been drunk in a long time, was a little hoarse, and Fisher Tiger cursed wearily.

"Draconian! One day I'll leave here and bring back my fire of vengeance. There seemed to be a flame burning in his pupils, and Tiger roared silently.

"Boom!" The heavy stone door was opened from the outside, and several heavily armed guards entered.

"Hurry up and untie him, it's going to be on the field soon." One of the leaders commanded the others, and the smell of the foul air in the stone chamber covered their mouths and noses with disgust.

Several guards vigilantly approached Tiger and untied his handcuffs and feet, as there had been more than one incident here where he was killed by a slave while the shackles were opened.

Without glancing at these people, Tiger let them go, he knew very well that there was no use in the seizure at this time, he could only make himself suffer, "I must wait until a more opportune time." Tiger muttered to himself.

"Count yourself honest, let's go!" The leader looked Tiger in the eye and waved for the group to follow him.

In the square, the host held a note and read aloud: "The following is the fighting champion and the adventurer of the fish-man clan in the underground world, who can survive!" Wait and see. ”

Amid the cheers and screams of the audience, Tiger and another man with bandages on his hands walked into the gladiatorial arena.

In the stands, the fat young Tianlong man with bubbles on his head proudly said to another older fat man beside him: "That fishman I caught with great effort, and that slave of yours must not be his opponent." ”

The older fat man glanced at the fish-man on the field with contempt, "Every time you say that, but when did you win?" I don't think I'll have to look at it next. ”

"Humph! Wait and see. The young Celestial Dragon gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words.

That's when the game began.
