# Chapter 1373: Edward Newgate's Worry!
Inside the highly anticipated Multiverse Duel Arena.
Lelei had already left the court and returned to her guest room to rest.
Meanwhile, the unconscious Shura was carried away on a stretcher by two medical personnel, one a biological alchemist and the other a medical ninja.
At this time.
An alchemist wearing a blue robe and belonging to the Construction Department was using alchemy to restore the heavily damaged court.
During this period, the audience also left their seats one after another to use the facilities.
So, on the tenth-floor grandstand, many people could be seen disappearing and reappearing from various 'Flying Thunder God Arrays', appearing very busy.
Of course, the truly busy people were the ninjas secretly injecting Chakra into the 'Flying Thunder God Array'.
The audience who bought Wind Stone Seat tickets had it even easier; they simply picked up the controller hanging by their side.
Then, using their will or voice, they requested the location they wished to go to.
They could then appear directly at any position within the stadium via the 'Dimensional Array'.
This was thanks to Natala, the Imperial Arms User of 'Dimensional Array: Shangri-La'.
However, he would only provide service during the 'Top 100 Competition'; after it ended, he would return to The Empire in the Imperial Arms World.
At that time, the Multiverse Duel Arena could only achieve teleportation between floors via the 'Flying Thunder God Array'.
Of course, there were also traditional stair safety exits.
It was just that the scale of this Multiverse Duel Arena was enormously large; relying solely on walking would likely make it difficult to reach the desired place in time.
An hour later, most people were ready.
Gaz, as the host, once again rode the Rathalos, appearing in the air and soaring freely.
"Welcome back to the Multiverse Duel Arena! Next..."
Just as he began to liven up the cooled-down atmosphere, inside a Colored Cloud Box in the air.
Kaido suddenly asked Little Ace, who was lying on Prometheus, "Kid, do you like that Rathalos?"
Actually, according to the rules, this Colored Cloud Box could hold a maximum of three people.
But since Kaido wanted to enter, the Multiverse Duel Arena couldn't possibly refuse.
After all, he was an admiral.
Let alone Vergo, even Doflamingo wouldn't make things difficult for Kaido over such a matter.
However, without this admiral identity, if it were other external personnel, even if their strength was sufficient, Doflamingo wouldn't give them face.
In other words, the key was the identity, not the strength.
Unless one's strength was stronger than the entire World Government, then they truly wouldn't need to abide by any rules.
"It's good-looking, but it's too big. I hope it's something that can stay by my side anytime."
Little Ace propped his chin on his wrist, looking at the Rathalos below while answering Kaido.
"Kaido, this Rathalos is a bit too weak."
Charlotte Linlin said with a look of disgust. She felt that Kaido giving this thing as a gift was too tacky.
"The Imperial Arms World should have stronger fire dragons, and Ace is still young, no need for one too strong. We can find a young dragon," Kaido said in a deep voice.
"But Father, Ace already has Prometheus. A fire dragon is a bit redundant."
Yamato, who was beside Kaido, also joined in, offering suggestions for Ace's gift.
"You might as well find him a Devil Fruit, like my Okuchi no Makami Form!"
"Indeed..." Kaido nodded, his gaze falling into thought.
For a Fire-type Devil Fruit, the best would definitely be a Mythical Zoan, like his own Azure Dragon Fruit.
Of course, the Azure Dragon Fruit couldn't really be considered Fire-type.
It was just that when he developed it, he leaned towards flame, resulting in his strongest special move being 'Great Torch Dragon'.
If he had leaned towards lightning or gale back then, it would probably be 'Great Thunder Dragon Roar' or 'Great Wind Dragon Storm'.
As for the Flame-Flame Fruit among the Logia System, Kaido looked down on it; after all, it was lower rank.
The upper rank Mag-Mag Fruit was quite good, as Sakazuki had already proven how strong it was.
Of course, he also knew that the main reason it was strong was Sakazuki himself.
Kaido said, "Oh, I remember now. On the Holy Land Treasury's official website, there is indeed one listed that is said to be a Fire-type Mythical Zoan..."
"Oh? What is it?" Charlotte Linlin also became interested.
Ace and Yamato also looked curiously at Kaido.
Kaido recalled, "I remember it's called the Zoan-Type Bird-Bird Fruit, Mythical Beast Type: Nue Form. The data image shows a monster covered in fire, but it doesn't have wings. I don't know why it belongs to the Bird-Bird Fruit; I feel it's more like a tiger-like creature."
Saying that, he took out his Video Den Den Mushi, opened the Holy Land Treasury's official screen feed, and displayed the data for this Devil Fruit.
"So ugly!"
Yamato immediately complained, "Ace is going to turn into this appearance? No way?"
"Demonic face, snake tail, it's indeed a bit hard to accept. The tiger's body is still acceptable though," Ace nodded.
Kaido had a Black Line on his forehead and coldly snorted, "What beauty or ugliness is a man considering? He should care about ability!"
"Let's wait a few more years. Perhaps better things will appear in the future. Anyway, Ace is still young."
Charlotte Linlin noticed Ace showing a troubled expression and immediately spoke up to help.
Kaido pouted, "Tch, whatever. As long as you don't regret it when this Devil Fruit is exchanged away."
At the same time, he was pondering, didn't the Academy of Science say they could clone Zoan-type Devil Fruits now?
He'd ask later if they could clone his Azure Dragon Fruit.
He figured Ace would definitely like turning into a Divine Dragon, and then he could teach him 'Great Torch Dragon'.
Meanwhile.
Under Gaz's hosting, the avatars and names of both sides for the second duel had appeared in everyone's eyes.
[Foxy VS Rory Mercury]
"Contestant Foxy is one of our Sea Star People, nicknamed 'Silver Fox'. He is currently a Silver Rank Adventurer, but at the same time, he is also a Devil Fruit User!"
Gaz once again began his enthusiastic introduction of both sides' origins.
"His ability is... the Paramecia System's Slow-Slow Fruit!"
"And the other contestant, Rory, comes from the Giant World Competition Zone, but her origin is the Farmart World. What is surprising is that before this, she was actually a Demigod who lived for over nine hundred years..."
As he was speaking, Foxy and Rory Mercury also walked into the court from both ends.
The former walked with arrogant steps, hands in his pockets, while the latter had a smile on her face, holding a huge purple gun-axe.
"Yo, this new little daughter you've taken in is in trouble!"
In an office at the Marine Headquarters, Garp bit the senbei in his hand, looked at Foxy and Rory on the virtual screen, and said carelessly.
"Slow-Slow Fruit, its ability is to make the speed and reaction of people or objects extremely slow within thirty seconds through emitted special light. After dispelling the ability, all damage received during this period will explode all at once..."
Edward Newgate, sitting on the sofa across from Garp, took out the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia and quickly found the page for the Slow-Slow Fruit.
This was the Admiral Office Building arranged for him by the Marine Headquarters.
Given his body size, which could be called a little giant, the domain was very spacious and tall, fully built according to the standards of the Giant Tribe.
"It's indeed troublesome. Rory hasn't mastered Armament Haki yet. Once she's hit by the technique, it will be difficult to escape..." Newgate muttered to himself, frowning.
Rory Mercury was no longer a 'Demigod', and she had been on this world for too short a time.
She only had time to get an injection of the 'Perfect Cell Enhancement Serum' and then recover a certain amount of strength through cultivating martial arts.
The only thing unaffected was her several hundred years of combat experience.
But most of this so-called experience was experience from killing ordinary people.
The number of times she had truly exchanged blows with strong enemies was pitifully few.
Seeing this, Garp laughed loudly, "Hahahaha, This Old Man thinks she should also personally experience a Devil Fruit ability! This way, she'll cultivate Haki even harder later!"
"Hmph, This Old Man will supervise that!" Newgate retorted unhappily.
Soon, Gaz's high-pitched voice came from the screen.
"Then I hereby announce!"
"Combat start!"
"Duel——————"
