Chapter 852: Hunting Game of the Four Forces
From Rainland to Albana, Kira and the others did not take the Hope, but took the Baroque Works' transportation, Fatty.
"At this time, they should have already started, right?"
Kira sat in the carriage, muttering to himself, then reached out and took out a square portable remote monitor console from his personal space. After tapping a few keys on it, the magic power quickly connected to the monitor he had previously placed in Yu Di. At the same time, a virtual screen was projected on the wall inside the carriage, showing Yu Di's current situation.
Seeing the virtual screen in front of him, Kira nodded with satisfaction: "Well... It's like watching a movie. Magic is really convenient!"
…
In the rain, a voice sounded in the sky.
"Moshimoshi... Can everyone hear me?"
The flat tone and lazy voice spread throughout the town, causing the several forces that were running around in the town, as well as the residents who originally lived in the rainy land and the tourists to stop what they were doing. Everyone looked at each other, looked up at the source of the sound, and found that there were several loudspeakers floating above the rainy land, and the sound just now came from them.
"This is……??"
“Who is talking??”
"Kira?? I knew that guy wouldn't stop!"
"What on earth does he want to do??"
The voice was said by Kira, but he used a voice changer, so even the navy couldn't hear it. Only the people from Fairy Tail and the senior agents of Baroque Works who had known the inside story for a long time knew that the person who said these words was Kira.
Amid the doubts of the entire town, the voice on the loudspeaker sounded again: "I am the owner of Rainland! Straw Hat Pirates, and the navy, you have now stepped into my territory, I advise you not to be ungrateful and leave as soon as possible!"
Everyone was stunned by the voice: "Your territory? Who are you?"
"Could it be Crocodile? This seems to be his territory..."
"But it doesn't sound like that..."
"Hmph! You are so arrogant! This should be the territory of the Kingdom of Alabasta, right? Pirates are pirates after all!"
As everyone was arguing, the voice in the sky continued, "But I know you won't leave easily, and you all have your own reasons for staying. But if you continue to stay here and run around in my place, or even fight, it will definitely threaten the lives and property safety of the residents of Rainland. In order to prevent your fight from evolving into something that no one wants to see, I want to use a hunting game to temporarily resolve the conflict between the parties."
"Hunting game??"
Smoker bit his cigar and frowned even deeper. His intuition told him that what the other party was going to say next would not be good.
"I have isolated the Rainland using a special method. From now on, this place will become a hunting ground and no one can leave. The Straw Hat Pirates, the Navy, all members of B.W. Works, and the wizards of Fairy Tail, the four forces will have a big melee here. Whichever force can stand to the end will be the champion. The champion will get the reward I give, and the remaining three losers will pay for all the losses in the Rainland."
"Hunting competition...are you kidding me?!"
There was a flash of anger in Smoker's eyes. When he heard the words 'Fairy Tail Wizard', he had guessed that the initiator of this hunting game was Kira, "I knew that the red-haired brat was not a quiet guy!!"
"What on earth does that guy take us for ?!"
Luffy, who was running in front, completely ignored the voice above his head. After seeing Smoker stop, he immediately turned around and ran towards Yuyan: "I don't want to participate in any defending game, I just want to beat Crocodile away now!!"
However, before he could run far, a voice above his head stopped him in his tracks: "I have already informed Baroque Works and Fairy Tail of the rewards in advance. Now let me tell you about the rewards for the other two parties. If the Straw Hat Pirates win, I will hand Crocodile over to you; and if the Navy can stand to the end, the Straw Hat Pirates and all the members of B.W Works in the rainy land who have bounties will be your rewards."
When Crocodile's name came out, the people in the town were excited.
Passerby A: "Just now... he was talking about Crocodile-sama?"
Passerby B: "What did that man do to our heroes of Alabasta?!"
Passerby C: "Who is the owner of the voice? He sounds like a handsome guy. I really want to meet him..."
Luffy and his crew, the navy led by Smoker, the members of Baroque Works, and the ordinary residents of Rainland were all shocked by the voice above their heads, which sounded like it belonged to a handsome guy. They all whispered to each other and started a heated discussion.
"What's going on? Did I hear it right?! The person with this voice actually said that he would hand Rockdale over to us?? Could it be that he is not from Baroque Works?"
"Could it be that someone defeated Crocodile before us?"
"That's the 'Seven Warlords of the Sea'! This guy actually gave it to us right away? Maybe there's a trick!"
The Straw Hat Pirates' Sanji, who is responsible for intelligence, Usopp, who is responsible for luck, and Nami, who is responsible for normal nerves, were discussing what Kira said while running, but they could not come to the same conclusion.
Smoker noticed that Luffy had started to run away, and quickly turned into smoke and chased after him: "Do we in the navy need charity from others to catch criminals? It seems that I have really been underestimated..."
Suddenly, Luffy stopped because someone stood in front of him, and that person was Natsu.
"You two are the bosses of the pirates and the navy, right? How lucky!!"
"You are... the one who ate Ace's flame at that time..."
Smoker was smoking two cigars and looking at Natsu with eyes full of scrutiny. He asked in a deep voice, "Natsu, what do you want to do?"
Natsu touched his hands together in front of him, sparks flew, and said with a smile: "Kira has just made it very clear, right? It's a hunting game! If we win, we can get a reward of one million Baileys!"
Luffy pressed down the straw hat on his head and shouted, "Hey, I don't have time to play games with you guys now. I'm going to beat Crocodile away! Get out of my way!"
Happy flew over and held up the photo of Crocodile he took yesterday in front of the two of them, saying, "The man you were talking about has been defeated by us! You're too late!"
"What?!"
Luffy was shocked when he heard this. He opened his mouth and took the photo. As expected, he saw a person who was wet, trapped in a cage, and looked very embarrassed. "This person is Crocodile??"
"It's Crocodile for sure! You actually caught him?"
Smoker's face was filled with indescribable surprise at this moment. He had not expected that this group of people could actually kill one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea so quickly, and judging from their performance, there seemed to be no loss.
He didn't have any objection to Crocodile being caught, but he felt a little unhappy because he didn't do it.
After hearing what Smoker said, Luffy finally believed that he was really here to eat, but soon, the expression on his face changed from frustration to indignation again, and two puffs of white air blew out of his nostrils: "I don't care! Even if I'm late, I'll fight again!"
"Then you have to defeat me first! Because he is our prisoner now!"
Natsu's whole body was ablaze with fire. He looked at the two people in front of him with a look full of fighting spirit, "I have been wanting to find someone to fight since yesterday!"
On the rooftop, Natsu, Luffy, and Smoker faced off, and their fighting spirit soared.
In terms of the comprehensive strength of the four forces, the Fairy Tail crew is undoubtedly the strongest, followed by the Straw Hat Pirates, then Baroque Works, and the Navy is at the bottom. But if a real fight breaks out, the situation will be different.
Several wizards are each stronger than the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and can basically wipe out an entire force by themselves;
Luffy and his crew can only fight three and a half of them, and the fighting power of the cowardly trio and Vivi can hardly fight ten of them at the same time, so they can be completely ignored;
Baroque Works has the most medium-level combat power. Even the weakest Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine can easily take down dozens of marines. In addition, they have handsome minions and are familiar with the terrain, which gives them an advantage in a fight.
Among the navy, only Smoker is capable of fighting, Tashigi is neither better nor worse, and the rest of the navy are just extras like the killers of Baroque Works, but they are better equipped and their actions are more orderly.
"If it's a battle between soldiers and generals, the navy won't have enough people, and except for Smoker who can stand to the end, the others will have to be eliminated; the spies of Baroque Works bully the weak and fear the strong, and dare not cause trouble for Erza and the others, so their targets will only be the navy and the Straw Hat Pirates; the Straw Hat Pirates' target is Baroque Works, and they have to deal with the navy on top of that; Erza and the others' thinking is much simpler, they must have regarded everyone as a target to be defeated! After all, Mr. 1 and those guys haven't been incorporated into 'Fairy Tail' yet..."
In a carriage thousands of miles away, Kira looked at the chaotic rain field that he had created, and kept analyzing the attack targets of the various forces in his mind, and speculating on the changes in the battle situation.
This was a task he assigned to himself, with the purpose of training his combat simulation abilities.
"From this perspective, it feels like Natsu and the others are the troublemakers..."
When Lucy heard Kira say that her man was a troublemaker, she was immediately dissatisfied and complained with a black face: "Come on! Didn't Natsu and the others stay because of the hunting game you suddenly organized? Now you actually say this to them, it's too much!"
Kira waved his hand nonchalantly: "Just study your lessons! Otherwise, just watch the live broadcast! Anyway, they are the troublemakers, and the others are..."
Everyone in the car: "..."
