Chapter 282: One-Punch Man Reiner
"Next up are the contestants for Block B!"
"Also featuring many popular contestants, the powerhouses from the New World!!"
Gatz spread his arms, his loud voice hyping up the entire crowd.
Reiner slowly walked onto the fighting ring from the passage. He looked around; the spectator stands were densely packed with people, and waves of cheers and applause set the entire arena on fire.
The first round of battles had brought the atmosphere to an unprecedented climax.
It seed the contestants were also ignited by this atmosphere. They all quickly stepped onto the ring, eyeing the surrounding opponents with restless anticipation.
Bang!!
As the passage gate fell, the announcer’s roar ca from the comntary booth.
"The match begins!!"
Bang!!
The mont his voice fell.
A violent explosion erupted instantly.
A man’s eyes rolled back, and he was sent flying out of the ring from the black smoke and gunpowder, covered in burns.
"—Whoa!!"
"The first contestant has been eliminated!"
Gatz’s eyes widened as he tried to make out the silhouette walking out of the smoke and gunpowder. The screen on the fighting ring also locked onto it.
A man with a resolute face and long arms was revealed. His arms were wrapped in black, and long horns protruded from his shoulders.
"It’s the champion of the V2 group from the New World Central Fighting Tournant, [Destruction Cannon Ideo], who has started to exert his power!"
A corner of Ideo’s mouth lifted. He continued to charge at the nearest opponent, each punch causing a violent explosion upon impact.
"O-da—!"
A blue-haired, long-legged man shouted, and with a lift of his leg, he delivered a swift whip kick that sent his opponent out of the ring.
"—Swish! Co on up, co on up!"
The man held his hands vertically in front of him, his expression teasing. He wiped his nose and beckoned with his finger, provoking the several restless opponents before him.
—Leg-Fighting Martial Artist, Blue Gilly of the Longleg Tribe!
Several ferocious-looking n holding swords sward up.
"You bastard Longleg!"
"Don’t be so arrogant! Kill him!"
"That’s it! Co at together!" Blue Gilly smiled cunningly.
His two long legs continuously leaped left and right, his speed so fast that it even created a blur of afterimages.
While the enemies were confused, he whipped out his legs like a whip from tricky and bizarre angles.
Slap!!
Slap!!
With a series of crisp sounds, the charging opponents were sent flying back one after another like rubber balls.
Before Blue Gilly could get too pleased, a dark shadow appeared before him, hanging upside down in mid-air. Under his flowing blond, choppy hair was a pair of teasing, cold eyes.
"When did he—!"
Blue Gilly was instantly shocked, his heart skipping a beat. In his urgency, he subconsciously whipped his leg up!
A corner of Reiner’s mouth lifted. His leg was imbued with Armant Haki as thick as ink, and he delivered a fierce downward axe kick!
Bang!!
The powerful collision sent a wave of air blasting out from the two of them as the center.
The mont they made contact, the sound of bones cracking ca from his lower leg.
"—Hiss, ah!"
So hard!
Blue Gilly sucked in a breath of cold air, almost biting his teeth to pieces. His eyes were bloodshot, his expression extrely pained.
Is this guy made of steel!
His Haki is way too terrifying!
"Far worse than a certain pervert. You still need more practice."
Reiner flipped in the air, and his long black leg, carrying the force of a thousand jun, viciously chopped down on the other’s head!
Bang!!
Blue Gilly’s bent-over head slamd heavily onto the ground, blood and froth flying. His pupils dilated, and he lay motionless on the cracked floor.
"My god! What did I just see!"
Gatz exclaid in disbelief, drawing the gazes of many spectators to Reiner.
"One hit! Just one hit!!"
"Using Blue Gilly’s specialty, leg techniques! The winner was decided in one move!!"
"His na is!"
The female assistant in a revealing leather outfit at his side hurriedly handed over the registration form. Gatz took it, glanced at it, and with one foot on the edge of the comntary booth, his face scrunched up, he shouted:
"Alan!!!"
"Go, Alan!"
"Go, go!!"
Many in the audience were attracted by Reiner’s performance.
No fancy techniques, just the violent beauty of power pushed to its extre, deeply stimulating the bloody and brutal side of their hearts.
"How ugly."
Bartoloo stood at the edge of the ring, facing the spectator stands, picking his ear with his pinky.
Suddenly, a wicked idea ca to him. He bared his two rows of sharp teeth in a mocking expression and, raising his hands, began to undo his belt?!
"Sanji, Sanji!"
Chopper pointed at Bartoloo and shouted in a panic, "Look what that guy is doing!"
"No way, that idiot!" Sanji’s face turned green, his expression as disgusted as if he had eaten a fly.
Even Franky couldn’t help but exclaim, "Hey, hey, hey, is he for real?!"
"He’s taking it out!"
"He’s really taking it out!"
Usopp held his face and cried out in terror, hurriedly reaching out to cover Chopper’s eyes tightly. "Close your eyes, Chopper! You can’t look! You’ll get a sty!!"
"Yohohoho~~, what a bold artist," Brook said with a chuckle, taking a sip of his coffee.
Franky threw his head back and laughed, praising, "This guy is SUPER perverted, hahaha!"
With the sound of splashing water...
Bartoloo began to joyfully relieve his little reservoir.
This instantly caused an uproar in the spectator stands. One after another, they turned their heads away with disgusted and disdainful expressions, cursing nonstop.
"So disgusting!"
"Die, you damn pervert!"
"This is a desecration of the sacred arena!"
Even the host, Gatz, couldn’t watch anymore and verbally attacked him. "Soone, defeat this bastard! Please, anyone!"
"Is there a rule that says you can’t pee here?"
Bartoloo was completely unconcerned by the curses around him. He gave the spectator stands two middle fingers and laughed up at the sky.
"Don’t you all like to watch? Today, I’ll let you watch your fill! Hehahahaha!"
Never mind the spectator stands, even the people on the ring couldn’t stand it anymore, all of them pointing their swords at this disgusting fellow.
"Bartoloo... firmly holds the number one spot on the real-ti ranking of ’Pirates We Most Hope Will Disappear’."
"So nauseating!"
"I can’t stand his face anymore! Kill him!"
Long spears, sharp swords, all sorts of glinting cold weapons were pointed at the publicly despised Bartoloo. Several contestants rushed up from behind with ferocious expressions.
Bartoloo maintained his posture of holding up his middle fingers, without even looking back, and simply crossed his index finger over his middle finger, sneering with disdain.
"Crossing your fingers to create a protective shield... this is knowledge even a child knows."
Bang!!
Bang!!
Bang!!
Suddenly.
Dull impact sounds were heard inexplicably.
It was as if there were an invisible iron wall in the air. The several contestants who had charged headlong were all sent sprawling, their noses crooked and mouths split, bleeding from their seven orifices as they fell to the ground.
"Hehahaha!" Bartoloo pulled up his pants and turned around, laughing with a cheeky expression:
"I’m a Barrier-Barrier Fruit user. As long as I cross my fingers like this, I can create a barrier that no thod can break through."
With that, Bartoloo lay down on his side, propping his head with his palm, his fingers crossed to maintain his ability. With his other hand, he patted his butt and launched a group taunt:
"I just love to see you all so angry but unable to do anything to . Are you mad, you pieces of trash?"
"You bastard!"
"Aaaah, I’m going crazy!"
"I don’t believe I can’t kill you!"
A group of people flew into a rage, charging up with their swords and guns and hacking away, sparks flying everywhere.
However, Bartoloo was tightly wrapped in his barrier, calmly trash-talking them.
On the other side.
He’s pulling this kind of stunt right from the start?
A corner of Reiner’s mouth twitched. He had to admit, Bartoloo was unusually irritating. That cheeky face was quite punchable.
It seed the [Ranking of Pirates We Most Hope Will Disappear] had so substance.
"Hey! You’re pretty strong, you bastard."
Destruction Cannon Ideo walked over with burning eyes, assuming a fighting stance before him. "I’ll be your opponent!"
A corner of Reiner’s mouth lifted slightly. Without a single extra word, he raised his fist and pushed off the ground, shooting out.
"How straightforward. I like it."
Ideo smiled. His gaze focused, staring deadly at the charging Reiner, at the sa ti drawing back his arm to build up power, ready to strike.
Until the other was right in front of him, a scorching firelight emanated from his fist.
Ideo didn’t make a single wasted motion, his right hook swift, precise, and fierce as it swung out.
"Destruction Cannon!!"
"Annihilating Rush Fist!"
Reiner’s eyes hardened, his pitch-black arm, glowing with a dark light, pierced straight up like a steel pillar!
Boom!!!
A fierce firelight, accompanied by rolling black smoke, shot up into the sky. The explosive impact instantly swept across the entire fighting ring!
"What’s going on!"
"What a terrifying explosion!"
The huge sound instantly attracted the attention of the entire audience. By the ti the people on the ring turned their heads to look...
...they saw a pathetic figure flying straight out of the thick smoke.
His body scraped along the ground for dozens of ters, a trench cutting across the entire ring, and finally, he fell into the water with a ’gurgle’.
"Ideo?!"
"What happened?"
Everyone’s gaze was as if drawn by a magnet, unable to look away, all of them focused on the silhouette walking out of the smoke and gunpowder.
"He’s appeared! It’s Alan!!"
"The scene of a popular contestant being one-shotted has appeared again! Who will be the next to fall into his clutches!?"
Gatz roared with passion. He knew the audience loved to see powerhouses clash and began to draw fire to Reiner on his own accord.
"Is it the endlessly strong giant, Hajrudin! Or the thirteenth successor of the Happo Navy, Sai! Or the universally despised Cannibal, Bartoloo!"
"Who will be the next target of this dark horse contestant! Let’s wait and see!!"
"Alan... I’ve been a rcenary for so long and have never heard of him," the giant Hajrudin said, looking at Reiner with great interest.
"There are plenty of strong people in the world who aren’t famous. Especially in today’s arena, there are many who have co to seize the world’s strongest power."
Sai stepped forward with his bisento. "No matter what, the Tremor-Tremor Fruit will definitely be taken by our Happo Navy!"
"You little pipsqueak, you talk pretty big. Let see if you have the qualifications!"
Hajrudin laughed loudly and, raising his giant double-bladed sword, chopped straight down!
Bang!!
The greatsword chopped down, cutting a giant crack in the ground. Sai tapped the ground with his toes and easily dodged to the side.
He swung his bisento, spun it a few tis, leaped high into the air, did a flip, and brought his heel crashing down on Hajrudin’s head!
"Hasshoken: Bukyaku!"
Bang!!
Hajrudin raised his shield to block.
However, Sai’s attack was not over. A shockwave spread out from his foot, and with a ’crackling’ sound, the next mont...
...the massive, thick round shield actually shattered with a roar, countless wood chips scattering.
"Hasshoken."
Hajrudin took a step back to steady himself, his gaze wary. "Seeing is believing. The martial art passed down through the generations of the Happo Navy is indeed powerful."
"You flatter . I have only learned a little of it,"
Sai said with an unsmiling face. "If it were anyone else, they would have been shattered by that one blow. The strength of a warrior of the giant race is indeed as rumored."
"To revive the Giant Warrior Pirates, I need the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit. I am still a long way from our forr two leaders," Hajrudin laughed heroically.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk," Reiner stepped forward, interrupting their comrcial flattery, and said teasingly, "If you’re done blowing smoke, then get down here, you two."
"That also depends on whether you have the qualifications!"
Sai shouted, stomped his bisento on the ground, and used it as a pole to vault into the air, all his Haki flowing and concentrating on his foot.
This guy...
...is very strong!
Sai’s expression was solemn. Even standing still, he could feel a sharp, threatening presence from the other, like a needle on his back.
His right foot was covered in a purplish-black Armant Haki. Sai, descending from the sky, charged up his power, the shockwave of his Hasshoken concentrated at the tip of his foot.
"Hasshoken Ogi: Kiryū Kirikugi!!"
All his power was gathered at one point, and with an angry roar, he struck at Reiner!
Reiner spread his legs into a half-squat. The knotted muscles bulged, straining his thin shirt.
Bang!!
Sai’s foot, which had gathered all his strength, struck him squarely in the chest.
The shockwave instantly exploded, shattering the ground behind him into ruins.
The powerful force also pushed Reiner’s body back continuously, his feet digging into the ground and plowing two deep trenches.
"You were right. You really have only learned a little of it."
Steadying himself, Reiner said with a savage grin, his body emitting steam.
This move of the other had so skill to it. Reiner could clearly feel the fiery pain in his chest.
But that was all.
He grabbed Sai’s ankle in a reverse grip, squeezing it so hard that the other winced in pain and sucked in a sharp breath of cold air.
With a forceful pull, Sai’s eyes showed panic. His entire person was uncontrollably pulled towards Reiner, and a pitch-black iron fist the size of a sandbag ca into his pupils!
"Annihilating Rush Fist: Martial Pierce!!"
The heavy punch struck him squarely in the face, twisting his entire face to one side, broken teeth and blood flying.
Boom!!!
The violent impact pierced through his body, directly crossing the fighting ring and crushing the ground, blasting countless rubble into the wall of the spectator stands.
His brain felt like it was being continuously shaken. Sai felt his soul leave his body. He instantly lost consciousness, his eyes rolling back as he was sent flying!
"Big brother!!"
On the viewing platform in the rest area, his younger brother Boo, also of the Happo Navy, cried out urgently, worried for his brother.
Beside him, Chinjao did not speak, but his fists were clenched tightly, his white beard flying in his anger.
The strong hostile intent from outside was as piercing as a torch in the darkness. Reiner smiled teasingly and gave a middle finger in the distance.
"You old fossil, what are you so cocky about? You can’t even get to ."
"Next..."
Before the others could recover from the shock of him defeating Sai with one punch, Reiner had already turned his head to stare at Hajrudin, tilting his chin up.
"Hey, you know the secret technique of Elbaf?"
"Heh heh, don’t underestimate the warriors of Elbaf, you brat!!"
Hajrudin looked down and laughed loudly. He gripped the hilt of his sword with both hands, the muscles in his arms bulging a circle, veins popping.
"Brat?"
Reiner chuckled. Haki, like pitch-black flowing fire, coiled around his two fists at the sa ti. "You’ve lived for so long and never been beaten up by a young person, have you?"
