Chapter 1330: The Appearance and Invitation of the Golden Emperor!
Arlong was the first contestant to be eliminated.
There were bound to be a second, a third...
As time passed, contestant after contestant encountered various situations.
They were successively announced as eliminated amidst the ruthless notification sounds.
During this process, the viewers from the Demon Slayer World were the most nervous.
Because the ten representatives who had been enhanced by Muzan Kibutsuji and successfully passed the Preliminary Assessment.
In just these five hours, five people had already been eliminated.
Now, only Imy Lichtenfeld, Masahiko Kimura, Jack Dempsey, Konstantin Nedolubov, and Anthony Biddle remained.
However, there was still a long time until the end, and no one knew who would ultimately remain.
Of course, the possibility of everyone being eliminated was also not small.
This made the mood of the billions of viewers in the Demon Slayer World incredibly anxious.
The viewers in the Nuclear World were actually in a similar situation.
However, so far, none of the three Nuclear Radiation Mutants had been eliminated.
Reincarnation Paradise.
[Rumble!!!]
Just as the evening sun was about to set.
An earth-shattering rumble suddenly erupted from the deepest part of the Inner Ring Area.
At the same time, it instantly drew the gaze of the contestants fighting in the outer areas of the Inner Ring Area.
"That is..."
Rory Mercury, while rapidly dodging the giant 'hand' formed by countless Kabaneri gathered into 'Black Smoke' above her head, looked towards the sky where thick smoke pillars rose, filled with surprise and uncertainty.
Another location.
Hank Henriette, who had transformed into a White-Haired Werewolf, instantly leaped into the air, tearing apart the nape of a thirteen-meter-tall Pure Titan with his sharp claws.
But as soon as he landed steadily on the surface of the Titan corpse, which had collapsed with a roar and was beginning to emit steam, he suddenly looked up and gazed in the direction from which the loud noise came.
Hank muttered to himself, "Such a big commotion... it seems the monster deeper inside is not something I can handle right now..."
Immediately, he dispelled the thought of continuing to go deeper that he had before.
He swept his gaze towards the Pure Titans approaching around him.
North Ayr Lakeside.
A Three-Headed Demonic Dragon, Ghidorah, from the Familiar of Zero World, completely black with twin wings on its back.
It was continuously attacking a heroic girl with silky black hair, a petite figure, holding a katana, and possessing black hair and gold eyes, by spewing three types of elemental breath: flame, poison liquid, and lightning from its different dragon heads.
When Tabitha was a child, she had once solo-killed a Ghidorah, but that was an immature young dragon.
The girl facing her now was a fully mature Three-Headed Demonic Dragon.
Its body size alone was nearly thirty meters tall.
According to the rating newly established by the Myriad Worlds Magical Creature Association under the Proclamation Government Institute.
It belonged to the Level 1 Magical Creature category.
Note, although it referenced the Danger Beast Level Standard of the Empire Arms World.
This was the World Government's own standard.
A Level 1 Magical Creature was equivalent to a relatively powerful existence among Special-Grade Danger Beasts.
It would require at least a Military Major General level of combat power to have a possibility of defeating it.
And the girl currently engaged in a fierce battle with such a terrifying Demonic Dragon.
She was Yajime Hime, who originated from the Shenhe Island Nation in the Empire Arms World!
But she had already moved with her grandfather to Wano Island on the Sea Star.
Her grandfather was the Former Shenhe Island Nation Sword Saint, the Current Yudao School Master, the 9th Dan Great Swordsman, Yejian Tsukahara!
At the same time.
She was also the current Master of the Yudao School, and the first disciple taken in by Dracule Mihawk!
She was just seventeen when the Empire Arms World was conquered by the World Government.
And now she was twenty, but already a 7th Dan Swordsman.
She could advance further at any time to become an Eighth Dan Great Swordsman, truly deserving the title of Sword Princess.
Yajime Hime, who was handling the Three-Headed Demonic Dragon with ease.
Just as she was about to deliver a killing blow, a surge of air current swept towards her.
Sensing the slash aura contained within it, the black-haired girl's movements paused slightly.
The originally still and sharp eyes also rippled with a hint of surprise.
"This should be a Great Swordsman!"
She hadn't expected such an expert to appear in the Top 100 Competition.
However, the next second, Yajime Hime erupted.
She flashed like lightning, passing through the layers of flame, poison liquid, and lightning attacks, instantly severing the dragon head on the left side.
Immediately, a mournful scream echoed throughout the area.
"Two more..."
Yajime Hime, who had landed behind the Three-Headed Demonic Dragon, pointed her blade towards the ground, her low murmur filled with cold killing intent.
There was no compassion or reluctance in her eyes.
Swordsmanship was meant for slaughter!
On the other side, at the northernmost tip of Lake Torrenz.
"It should be that Goethe, the third place from the last Top 100 Competition..."
Kyros from the Sea Star, Dressrosa Kingdom, wore a red cloak and held a dark longsword.
He stood resolutely before the massive corpse of the Special-Grade Danger Beast, Sun-Moon King, which he had just hunted.
Although Kyros hadn't witnessed the battle firsthand.
Such a large-scale rumble clearly exceeded the scope of what he could handle.
After all, he didn't have the strength to solo-kill Diamante like he would eighteen years later...
At the same time.
Chaka, Urouge, Dalton, and other contestants also from the Sea Star who had entered the Inner Ring Area, also guessed that the commotion was caused by Goethe.
They were also shocked that there was a monster deep inside that could make him take it seriously.
This Competition Organizing Department is going too far, aren't they?
If it wasn't Goethe, but them who encountered it, wouldn't it be certain death!
Meanwhile.
Many viewers who had selected the Goethe channel to watch him slaughter.
Discovered that their virtual screen went black after the sudden rumble.
They originally thought it would recover after a while, but instead, a string of prompts appeared on the screen that left them speechless.
[Contestant Goethe has encountered the strongest monster worth 1000 points. All Den Den Mushi deployed at the scene have been destroyed, and live broadcast screen cannot be provided temporarily.]
However, the situation at the scene was completely different from the explanation given by the Competition Organizing Department.
A massive gold dome covered the earth.
Isolating a large number of high-grade magic beasts and high-grade danger beasts outside.
Inside the dome, in the somewhat dim space.
"Who are you?"
Uunan, using the alias 'Goethe', held a long saber.
He stared vigilantly at the man who had suddenly appeared and launched a fierce attack on him.
If it weren't for his decent strength, he would have been severely injured or even dead from that attack just now.
But the immense force still made his hand numb.
This indicated that the opponent's strength was greater than his own, and not by just a little bit!
"Hehehe, then let me introduce myself. My name is Gild Tesoro, the Golden Emperor, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea..."
Tesoro spread his hands, which shimmered with treasure light, his gaze towards Uunan filled with appreciation.
"This stage is too small for you. Come with me. I can give you strength, I can give you status, I can give you power and influence!"
"And the only price you need to pay is submission to me, and discarding the insignificant identity of 'Goethe'!"
The Golden Emperor's subordinate should naturally include a Golden Great Swordsman...
