Chapter 1335: Everyone a 'Pseudo-Divine Weapon'?! (Two-in-One Chapter)
The second round of the Myriad Worlds Top 100 Combat Power Tournament's Point Match has concluded.
But it still needs a formal ending.
Seven in the evening.
The banquet hosted by the Competition Organizing Department began under the dazzling light of the crystal lamps as nightfall approached.
This is the Star Realm Army Senior Officers' Restaurant.
The Star Realm Army Headquarters, currently under construction, is right next to it.
However, to avoid affecting this banquet, construction will be suspended until tomorrow.
Despite the absence of bustling construction scenes, the contestants from various worlds were still shocked by the incredibly exaggerated scale.
What is the concept of being ten times the size of the Pentagon?
The Pentagon in the Nuclear World occupies an area of about 117,000 square meters, equivalent to sixteen football fields.
So, the Star Realm Army Headquarters before them.
Is equivalent to one hundred and sixty football fields, covering an area of over one square kilometer!
Marshal Nikolai Zhekov commented on this:
"The moment it is completely finished and officially put into use, the Star Realm Army will finally have its 'Soul'!"
At the same time.
Kyros, Rory Mercury, Hank, and the other hundred contestants who successfully advanced to the Ranking Match, under the gaze of Video Den Den Mushi on both sides, walked onto the soft red carpet to take their seats.
Soon, on the temporarily erected stage, Gaz, who had changed into a bright yellow suit, walked over with a blond strong man wearing a red and white chef uniform and a head chef's hat estimated to be nearly a meter tall.
This caused the atmosphere to gradually quiet down.
"First, congratulations to everyone for successfully becoming a 'Top 100 Contestant' in the 'Sea Star Second Myriad Worlds Top 100 Combat Power Tournament'!"
"Let me introduce myself, I am Gaz, the Official Host of the Top 100 Competition, from the Dressrosa Colosseum!"
After speaking, Gaz paused, seemingly giving everyone time to remember.
Then, he continued to enthusiastically introduce the man beside him.
"The Competition Organizing Department, in order to entertain everyone with the greatest sincerity, specially invited the Sea Star Chef Association to prepare the most delicious and exquisite top-tier cuisine for everyone!"
"This is President Zeff of the Sea Star Chef Association, and he is also an extremely rare Special Grade Chef!"
Zeff's expression was serious. He picked up the microphone in his hand and scanned the hundred Top 100 Contestants in the audience.
It's interesting to note that most of the people here, about eighty percent, couldn't defeat him, a chef.
"Hello everyone, I am Zeff. For this banquet, our Chef Association has sent out its elite."
"Besides me, the President, there are also ten High-Grade Chefs skilled in various cuisines, including Vice President Ms. Jessica."
As soon as he finished speaking, ten men and women wearing blue and white chef uniforms walked onto the stage in two groups.
They stood beside Zeff and Gaz, accepting the gaze of all the Top 100 Contestants and the Den Den Mushi with a smile.
Their arms were all adorned with 'High' character armbands featuring the White Tiger Encircled symbol.
"Next, I will introduce tonight's dishes and the chefs responsible for making them..."
Zeff ignored the impatient expressions of some Top 100 Contestants below the stage and spoke slowly.
He knew, of course, that most of the people here didn't care who made the food or what it was called.
But this was to let people from more worlds know about the existence of the Sea Star Chef Association.
This was certainly not Zeff's idea, but Jessica's idea.
And they would do it again at the final banquet after the Top 100 Ranking was decided!
The Chef Association didn't charge service fees, and the Top 100 Competition provided advertising opportunities.
Both sides were simply getting what they needed.
In fact, the Chef Association and the Adventurer's Guild also had cooperation.
The former purchased ingredients captured by adventurers from the latter, while the latter could also accept various missions from the former.
A moment later, Gaz, Zeff, Jessica, and others left the stage.
Then, several male attendants were seen setting up chairs on the stage, followed by a group of men and women holding various musical instruments walking onto the stage.
"An orchestra?"
"Wow, the Competition Organizing Department really put in the effort!"
Rory Mercury, sitting at a dining table, watched the musicians on stage beginning to tune their instruments with interest.
"You like music too?"
Sasha, sitting next to Rory, asked curiously.
Because Tiffania and Bryan didn't make it into the Top 100, she had to attend this banquet alone.
Fortunately, she became acquainted with Rory Mercury through the Reincarnation Paradise.
Especially when they learned that the other person was also nearly a thousand years old, they felt a sense of closeness.
They quickly became friends.
Of course, Sasha's 'thousand years' was because her soul had been sealed, while Rory had genuinely lived for over nine hundred years.
However, their former identities were similar.
Rory was an Apostle of Emroy, while Sasha was Brimire's Void Familiar.
Furthermore, the worldviews of the Familiar of Zero World and the Farmart World were very similar, making communication almost barrier-free.
"Over nine hundred years of time is enough for me to try various things, and music is certainly no exception. I hope they can bring me some surprises next."
Rory Mercury looked at the musicians on stage somewhat lost in thought, seemingly recalling something.
Seeing this, Sasha didn't disturb her thoughts further.
Soon, a piece of music titled 'Skylark' began to play.
Accompanied by this melodious music, female attendants with graceful figures and excellent appearance began to enter, carrying trays.
They placed them on the tables in front of the contestants in an orderly manner.
Then, they respectfully stood behind each contestant, ready to provide subsequent service at any time.
To be honest, this made most contestants of ordinary origin feel a bit uncomfortable, yet they also enjoyed this kind of high-end banquet occasion.
And when they tasted the exquisite food on the plates, they could no longer suppress the excitement in their hearts, letting out exclamations and praise one after another.
"So delicious!"
"This is too tasty!"
"Food can be made to this extent?"
"I just feel a warm current circulating throughout my entire body!"
Beside a certain dining table.
Hank, from the Beast God World, was also shocked by the food before him at this moment.
He had just experienced a strong sense of happiness.
"If only I could let Elaine taste it, what a pity..." Hank sighed softly.
However, no matter how low his voice was, Kyros, who was beside him, could hear it clearly.
"The Chef Association Headquarters is in Spring Queen City in the First Half of the Grand Line."
"Although I don't know who Elaine is."
"But she must be a lady who is very important to you. You can take her to see it."
At the same time, Kyros thought to himself, "Me too, I must let Scarlett taste this ultimate deliciousness!"
"Spring Queen City, I've noted it down. Thank you very much!"
Hank thanked Kyros solemnly.
"Elaine is my wife, and she is currently a researcher at the Biochemical Research Institute!"
Speaking of this, Hank's face showed a proud expression.
In his heart, Elaine was the most perfect.
"Wow, the Biochemical Research Institute, that's truly remarkable. If you two have time, you must come to Dressrosa. I think we can become very good friends!"
Kyros enthusiastically invited Hank, and as he spoke, he picked up his wine glass and clinked it with Hank's.
[Ding!]
"It's our honor!"
Hank also placed great importance on this No. 1 from the Point Match.
Since he had decided to settle down in Sea Star, he naturally wanted to make friends here.
On the other side.
Master Yimi from the Demon Slayer World held his wine glass and stood up, facing Tatekata:
"Mr. Tatekata, I am deeply grateful for your assistance in helping me successfully enter the Top 100 this time!"
Seeing this, Tatekata also picked up his sake cup, giving Master Yimi equal respect.
As for the thanks, he didn't decline.
Unexpectedly, Master Yimi suddenly said something astonishing: "Mr. Tatekata, could we exchange contact information? Our League of Nations in the Demon Slayer World hopes to become partners with your Land of Iron in all aspects!"
"Hmm?"
Tatekata was surprised, but he didn't refuse.
However, the specific matters would have to be decided by the Admiral of the Land of Iron, Leader Mifune.
The question was, did this matter involving cooperation between two worlds need to be reported to the Queen of Rōran and the Konoha Ninja Sect?
Meanwhile.
The ten Top 100 Contestants at other dining tables were also clinking glasses, chatting animatedly with the people around them, making it very lively.
Outsiders might find it hard to imagine.
These people, from ten different worlds, were actually drinking and chatting happily together in one place with a lively atmosphere.
Even though they would be opponents again next month, many of them had already become friends.
The banquet ended.
The second round of the Top 100 Competition finally came to an end.
Next, these hundred contestants will be organized by the Competition Organizing Department to head to the Sea Star Mainland to prepare for the third round, the Ranking Match.
However, the start time is August 1st.
There are still less than twenty days until then, giving them ample rest time.
Late night.
Hank, who had just walked out of the bathroom, came to the window wearing a white bathrobe.
He gazed at the hundred-meter-high Great Wall and the Reflection Shield in the air emitting a faint colored light.
He felt that the experiences inside over the past two days were unforgettable for a lifetime.
All sorts of strange monsters, and experts from various worlds.
Sword Masters, Mages, Ninjas, Bloodline Limit Possessors, Nuclear Radiation Mutants, Superpowered Individuals, Devil Fruit Users, Imperial Arms Users, Nue Form Kabaneri...
In the face of these extraordinary powers, he, a Pseudo-Divine Weapon, didn't seem so different from others.
Especially the Zoan Devil Fruit Users, they were practically the Upper Rank of their Pseudo-Divine Weapons.
Even the Common Species among Zoan-type Devil Fruits, their improvement in overall physical ability and life force was comparable to his Fenrir.
However, Pseudo-Divine Weapons also had an advantage, which was that each Pseudo-Divine Weapon had its own special ability.
This was very similar to the Mythical Zoan among Zoan-type Devil Fruits.
It was just that the special ability of Pseudo-Divine Weapons had little potential for development and improvement.
So far, only that guy Cain had managed it.
The ability to turn his body into blood and be immune to attacks didn't exist before.
Oh, right, he himself seemed to be able to transform into the so-called Beast God Form.
In that state of glowing all over, even if Cain had Blood Elementalization, he would still get beaten.
This was very similar to the effect of Armament Haki.
He wondered if it would be effective against Logia Devil Fruit Users...
[Purururu, Purururu]
Just as Hank's thoughts were drifting.
The Den Den Mushi suddenly calling out behind him startled him awake, causing Hank's face to immediately show joy.
Because there were only a few people who knew his Den Den Mushi Number now.
And the person calling at this time could only be his lover.
"Elaine?"
Hank walked over, picked up the handset, and asked with a smile.
"Yes, it's me. Congratulations, Hank. I wanted to call you earlier, but I thought you might be very busy, so I endured until now..."
Elaine, who had only recently been Resurrected, said softly.
Now she was particularly glad that when she was in the Netherworld, although they gathered to resist the World Government's Invasion, they didn't cause too much loss to it.
Of course, it was mainly because their ability was limited and they simply couldn't stop the military edge of the Underworld Army Headquarters.
The two exchanged greetings for a while.
Just as Hank was wondering if it was time to end, Elaine suddenly brought up the matter of the Beast God World.
"Hank, Cain has already occupied Newfort, and San Alta in the Southern Patria Union has also been occupied by the Star Realm Army!"
Hank was stunned, then said with a bitter smile, "It hasn't even been three months, has it? So fast?"
The North and South combined had nearly a million military strength.
"Yes, Cain has invited us and Millie Elia to return and attend the founding ceremony of the Patria Republic."
Elaine, who was in Impel Down Level 5.5, nodded.
On the other side, Hank, who was in the Titan World, frowned.
"Republic? Wasn't Cain going to establish The Empire?"
"I don't know what happened during that time, and Cain won't tell me these things, but I guess it has something to do with his father, President Sid."
Hank said with a smile, "Is that so? That's good, Republic is better than The Empire. So, Cain is going to be the Great President?"
"Of course, but Cain said his Republic is not a Republic with mortals, but a Republic with 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons'..."
Elaine looked at the Den Den Mushi in front of her with a complex mood.
Sure enough, it began to imitate Hank's surprised expression: "Huh? What does that mean?"
"It means that Cain has decided that only those who become 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons' can become President and Council Members."
After listening, Hank was speechless. Then he heard Elaine say again:
"Not only that, Cain told me that in the future, he wants everyone to become 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons', preferably infants having this ability as soon as they are born, and he even asked me to help him research..."
"What!"
Hank was shocked beyond measure, issuing an angry shout from his mouth.
"Has he gone mad?!"
"Hank, I think Cain's idea is quite good."
But Elaine suddenly sang a different tune from Hank.
"We were concerned before because 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons' would gradually lose rationality and self-control ability, completely turning into 'Beasts'..."
"But if there isn't this problem, the strength of 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons' will make the people of our world even stronger."
"If we encounter foreign invasion again in the future, everyone will also have the ability to protect oneself..."
Hank listened patiently with an ugly expression.
Although Elaine's words made some sense, it was still difficult for him to accept for a while.
Because he couldn't imagine what it would be like for everyone to be 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons'.
He always felt that this would trigger a great disaster.
Seeing Hank's silence, Elaine added softly:
"Hank, you don't need to worry. Even if something goes wrong, you can ask the World Government for help."
"But if nothing goes wrong, then it's a good thing for everyone."
However, Hank remained silent.
Because he reserved his opinion on this, and even opposed it in his heart.
He believed that the strength of 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons' should only be given to those with combat talent and who voluntarily accept it.
Everyone being a 'Pseudo-Divine Weapon', how chaotic would that be...
