Chapter 2735 The Hungry Wolf Wants to Challenge the 'Top Ten'!
The process for this third edition of the Top 100 competition is similar to that of the previous edition.
The flag was raised and songs were sung, and the contestants entered the venue.
Next, the Lord of the Duel City and the President of the Adventurers' Guild will give a speech.
The former is naturally still Vergo.
But the latter changed from Doflamingo to Shanks and Buggy.
Yes, Bucky, as the honorary president, also gloated and stole the show.
It also made many people who didn't know much about it before aware of it.
The Adventurers' Guild currently has two presidents.
What puzzled them was why Buggy was on par with Shanks, a Celestial Dragon.
After the speeches, the opening ceremony began with a song and dance performance.
Maria Napoleon, Quinn, Tezzolo, Brooke, Uta, Lala, and other top performing artists from around the world took turns on stage.
They brought wonderful song and dance performances to all the audience members, both at the venue and in front of their screens.
Yes, Lala went up too.
He will sing a song as one of the two most popular idol stars in the galaxy, Dasel and Talha.
She possesses the image of a perfect girl and the voice of a cosmic diva.
Before he even finished singing, he had already amazed many people around the world who were affiliated with the World Government.
"Husband, is it right for Lala to do this?"
Historia, dressed in a celestial phoenix and bird-patterned dress, looked at the scene replicated by the holographic virtual image with a hesitant expression.
At this time, Im had already returned to the starfish homeland with Stussy, the three queens, the four Ubuyashiki sisters, Robin and the other women.
They are gathered on the lawn of 'Flower Between' to watch the opening ceremony of the 'Top 100 Competition'.
Historia's meaning was understood by everyone present.
Lala is destined to become a superstar.
With such a prestigious status, it seems somewhat inappropriate for her to continue as a singer, idol, or star.
"It's alright."
As Im sat in his chair, watching the dazzling stage, Lala, with a radiant smile on her face, answered softly.
In his view, liking to sing and dance is not something unacceptable.
As long as the girl likes it, that's fine.
Standing beside her, Stussy smiled sweetly: "You really dote on Lala, Lord Im~"
Upon hearing this, Im raised his eyes, glanced at the other person and Historia, Esdeath, and Teresa, and asked in return, "Aren't you the same?"
The four women were immediately taken aback.
They all recalled what Im had done to them over the years.
Indeed, when it comes to being 'pampered,' they all get whatever they want.
Even if they don't want it, I'll still give them what they need and like.
Many people use this as an exaggerated metaphor for "picking stars and sending the moon."
He became humble in Im's presence.
Because he will directly give you a plane of existence, or even an entire planet.
And no matter what problems arise, they can solve them for you.
This is the ultimate sense of security and reliance.
Aside from being somewhat aloof in his usual manner, he is practically perfect in every other way.
Thinking of all this, the four women looked at Im with a touch more tenderness in their beautiful eyes.
Stussy's gaze was more complex.
Her treatment was almost no different from that of a superstar.
You could even say they are more trusted, but ultimately...
As time passed, the song and dance performance came to an end.
Gaz and Stella worked together as hosts.
They began by introducing the specific format of the ranking tournament to the audience.
It's actually the same Swiss team from the previous edition.
But I still need to explain it again so that many people who don't know about it will understand.
First of all.
One hundred players will compete in a seven-round tournament.
That is, each player will play against the other seven players in one match.
Starting at noon tomorrow.
One hundred contestants will once again gather in this multiverse arena.
They will receive a personal number, a competition venue number, and an opponent number from the 'Competition Organizer'.
The first round of the 'Swiss Wheel' will be played.
That is, the battle takes place simultaneously in fifty small arenas divided by a magical barrier.
After finishing the round, rest the next day, and then start the second round the day after tomorrow.
This process is repeated seven times.
Each contestant's first opponent is determined by the 'Competition Organizers'.
But let's start with the second opponent.
It will be based on each player's win/loss and score in the first battle.
You will be randomly matched with opponents of similar skill levels.
The final rankings are determined by wins and points.
The so-called small score.
That is, the 'tournament organizing department' will base its decisions on the players' performance in each battle.
He awards a score between 0.1 and 0.9 to the opponent who loses to him.
The most important factor to consider is the time it takes to defeat your opponent.
The shorter the time, the stronger the player is, and the higher the opponent's score will be.
At the same time, the more wins a player has, the higher the score will be given to the opponent who loses to him.
Simply put, the points are for the losers, while the winners only need to care about the number of wins.
However, to prevent anyone from deliberately stalling for time in order to secure a weaker opponent in the next round.
The competition organizers will not release these sub-score data.
Players and spectators can only see the players' wins and losses.
However, the 'Swiss wheel' can only determine the rankings from seventeenth to one hundredth.
The remaining sixteen players will advance to the knockout stage, giving them the opportunity to strive for a higher ranking.
"Oh—that sounds interesting. I wish I had participated too."
It is located on the third floor east of the ground seating area.
The hungry wolf, dressed in a tight black shirt and white pants, looked slightly disappointed after hearing this.
"Then why didn't you participate, Master?"
The little boy sitting next to him, Ah Xiong, asked in confusion.
However, he looks much thinner now, unlike before when he was chubby.
"It's all because of you, kid," the hungry wolf glanced at him.
He first laid a foundation in martial arts for his opponent.
I deliberately stayed in the Ancestral World for a longer period of time.
Therefore, they missed the registration deadline for the 'Top 100 Competition'.
Otherwise, I should be in some player's lounge right now.
However, the hungry wolf also came up with a way to make up for it.
I'm just waiting for this year's 'top ten' to be announced so I can go up and challenge them one by one.
If you defeat them all, then you've participated in the competition and won.
As for making a wish, that doesn't matter.
"After I finish this year's 'Top Ten,' I'll go look for more."
The hungry wolf pondered to himself.
He knew very well the best way for him to become stronger.
It's about constantly finding people to fight and improving your strength through battle.
It just so happens that this starfish doesn't seem to lack strong individuals.
"Sabo, we're the same age, let's participate in the fifth Top 100 Tournament together!"
Inside the Rainbow Clouds VIP room that Charlotte Lingling had reserved.
Ace suddenly turned to his companions and extended an invitation.
He never expected that he would run into his opponent again at home right after finishing the match.
He also said that he had become his father's disciple and would live with them from now on.
Fortunately, Sabo had a very good personality and quickly became friends with everyone.
Sabo laughed and said, "Alright, we'll go together then, but if we run into each other, I won't hold back!"
"What about me? What about me? I want to participate too!" Luffy interjected, raising his hand.
"You're only six years old, and this is the sixth time you've participated."
Sanji, sitting next to him, reminded him, "Back then, Ace and Sabo should both have been among the top ten and wouldn't be able to participate anymore."
"Oh, how could this be? By the way, you're the same age as them? I'm so envious—"
Sanji looked over helplessly: "Please, I'm someone who aspires to be a top-tier chef, I have absolutely no interest in fighting."
Luffy immediately shook his head: "No way, we agreed to go on adventures together from now on, so you have to get stronger too."
“Uh—” Sanji was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
Before he could answer, Runti suddenly asked, "Adventure... Can we join, Luffy?"
She seemed very interested in it.
Luffy was also very happy about this: "Great, that's wonderful!"
But Page Van der Rohe complained, "Can you not take me with you?"
"I like peace and quiet, I enjoy fishing, and I want to be a policeman in the future, living a peaceful and comfortable life."
Runti rolled her eyes at him: "You mean your sister is going on an adventure and you, as her younger brother, aren't going to be there to protect her?"
This left Peggy Van Gunn speechless.
He really couldn't do anything about this older sister.
