Chapter 1292: The Legend of the Red Hair Adventure Group and the Eight-Tails Gyuki!
"So, is this year's Top 100 Competition the same as the last one?"
Morgan William asked again.
He was very interested in this matter, as it was bound to bring benefits from all sides. Honestly, before joining the Adventurer's Guild, he never expected such a surprise.
It's worth mentioning that Morgan William still didn't know that Doflamingo and Shanks were celestial dragons. Firstly, his force hadn't yet left the East Blue, making it difficult to investigate the two. Secondly, Doflamingo and Shanks didn't intend to tell him this. Thirdly, Muzan Kibutsuji was very cautious; although he had a cooperative relationship with him, he was unwilling to say more when it involved celestial dragons.
Therefore, Morgan William's understanding of Doflamingo was limited. It was only to the identity of 'Leader of the Donquixote Family', a North Blue underground force. As for why he couldn't infer the identity of a celestial dragon from the surname 'Donquixote', it was because very few people outside knew which clans the celestial dragons belonged to. The key was that Morgan William's origin was too low; he simply couldn't access this kind of information. If he hadn't luckily eaten the Logia-type Steam-Steam Fruit and obtained an excellent result of seventh place in the last Top 100 Combat Power Competition, establishing contact with Muzan Kibutsuji, he wouldn't even have the qualification to sit here now.
As for Shanks and his group, Morgan William's knowledge was also very superficial. The regimental commander of the 'Red Hair Adventure Group' who had just traversed the Grand Line Sea Area. Besides his formidable strength, he was also lucky enough to gain the favor of the 'Eight-Tails' Gyuki. During their adventure in the Grand Line, that tailed beast from the Ninja World had stolen the spotlight countless times. Whether in naval warfare or land battle, it could be called a war weapon, especially the Tailed Beast Bomb it released, whose power was incredibly immense. This caused forces from all sides to cast countless envious and jealous gazes upon them and extend tentative olive branches. Among them were the arrogant royal families of various nations.
In Morgan William's view, the 'Red Hair Adventure Group' had another stroke of luck. That was, they caught up with a good era. In the past, they would have been certainly charged with the crime of being pirates, and then subjected to a joint encirclement and suppression by the Marines and CP, attempting to seize the 'Eight-Tails' Gyuki.
"No, the minister of the 'Competition Organizing Department' told me that this year's competition system will be greatly changed because the death toll in the last one was too high, Fufufufufu~~" Doflamingo couldn't help but laugh out loud. The previous Top 100 Competition was indeed brutal. Especially the 'Battle Royale Preliminary Competition' held in the major seas. In the Four Seas combined, only four hundred people could participate in the real 'Top 100 Competition'. Of the rest, although it couldn't be said that everyone died, as withdrawal was allowed, the death toll still reached over a hundred thousand, and the injured were countless. Therefore, the World Government had to change the competition system!
However, this would inevitably lead to the first Myriad Worlds Top 100 Combat Power Tournament having the highest value in history. Especially William and the others in the 'Top 10' were estimated to become legendary figures.
As his right hand's five fingers gently hooked. A large-bodied Den Den Mushi in the corner immediately projected bright light from its eyes, quickly forming a holographic virtual image on the meeting table.
Seeing this scene, both Shanks and William were a little surprised. Because this kind of 'Star Den Den Mushi' that could provide 'Star Sea Den Den Mushi Network' and 'Holographic Virtual Image' functions had not yet been popularized among the civilian population.
"Fufufufufu~, in the future, the offices of your Four Blues Branch will all be equipped with a 'Star Den Den Mushi'." Doflamingo noticed their expressions and mentioned it casually.
At the same time. An introduction to the competition system for this 'Top 100 Competition' appeared in the holographic virtual image on the meeting table.
"First, the scope of this year's 'Selection Trial' is larger. It's no longer limited to the world; all worlds under the World Government can participate."
"However, unlike the world which is divided into 'East, West, South, and North' Four Seas competition zones, these worlds each only have one competition zone."
"So, although it's only February now, the propaganda department will start promoting it in a couple of days, giving the contestants ample time to travel."
"However, just like the last one, each competition zone only has a hundred slots to enter the 'Top 100 Main Competition'."
Inside the meeting room, the holographic virtual image was centered. Doflamingo spoke, while Shanks, William, Diamante, and Vergo listened attentively.
"Currently, the World Government has eight otherworlds under its banner. Among them, the situation in the Titan World and the Falmart World is special."
"Because the Falmart World is facing a world-ending crisis, the World Government is migrating residents to the Titan World, so no competition zone will be set up there."
"As for the Titan World, due to the 'Absolute Freedom Judgment', most of the residents in its regions cannot participate in the competition."
"Regarding the Eldians on Paradis Island, all their adult males have to serve military service, so probably no one will sign up to participate."
"Not to mention the Canberra Continent, which is basically full of military members."
Hearing this, Shanks asked, "So, the Titan World won't have a competition zone either?"
"No, it will." Doflamingo looked over with a grin: "The residents of the Falmart World are settling on the Aconcagua Continent (South America), and we will set up a competition zone there."
At the same time, race data from various races in the Falmart World appeared in the holographic virtual image.
human, aquatic race, beastman, centaur race, medusa race, dwarf race, gnome race, high elf, dark elf
The four people present were dazzled by the sight, and Shanks' eyes were particularly sparkling.
At his core, he was still a pirate who loved adventure who was full of curiosity about all sorts of unseen things.
"These beastmen look like the Mink Tribe, and isn't this aquatic race the Merfolk Tribe? What about the Fish-Man Tribe?"
Doflamingo gave an explanation: "The fish-men in the Falmart World are called 'Sea Monsters'. Although they look similar to the Fish-Man Tribe, they don't have normal feelings and rationality, so they are not considered intelligent races, and this great migration did not include them."
"I see." Shanks nodded repeatedly.
Morgan William laughed: "So, the competition zone in the Titan World will be participated in by a group of Falmart World people, hehehehe."
"In the future, they will also be Titan World people. Falmart will probably become a cultural designation." Vergo suddenly spoke up to join the topic, and then Diamante returned to the main subject.
"So, counting the newly conquered Nuclear World, there will be seven hundred contestants coming from the otherworld side to the world this time?"
"Adding the four hundred people from the world, that's a total of eleven hundred people!"
But who knew Doflamingo shook his head and denied it: "That's not necessarily true."
"Although the competition system is that each competition zone has a hundred advance slots, the condition for passing the Selection Trial is unified."
"Therefore, whether these otherworld competition zones can produce a hundred contestants who pass the Selection Trial is an unknown."
Shanks, William, Vergo, and Diamante all showed surprise on their faces.
Then, the detailed content of the Selection Trial appeared in the holographic virtual image.
Doflamingo then continued to explain based on it.
"This year's Selection Trial has actually become a physical fitness assessment."
"The minimum requirement to pass the assessment is to complete one thousand push-ups, a 50,000-meter run, and one hundred round trips climbing a 100-meter rope bare-handed within three hours."
What the people present didn't know was that this was actually only half of the daily training intensity of military headquarters soldiers.
However, they could tell that this might be a very difficult challenge for otherworlders.
Otherwise, the 'Competition Organizing Department' wouldn't have set it up this way.
Just as Doflamingo had said before.
In some worlds' competition zones, the number of contestants who pass the Selection Trial this time might not reach one hundred.
For example, Kabaneri World, Demon Slayer World, Nuclear World, these worlds that are not so 'supernatural'.
As for worlds like Familiar of Zero World, although mages exist, they can't be said to have any advantage in terms of physical ability assessment.
On the contrary, the homeland's Selection Trial, as well as the Imperial Arms World and the Ninja World.
At that time, the competition is estimated to be very fierce, and it will all depend on who finishes faster.
