One Piece Flame Emperor Ace

Chapter 30 Five Challengers
Because Ace is only ten years old, his height is only 1.6 meters. Although his figure is well-proportioned, he does not look strong.

So when this student named Jiali stepped onto the ring, the huge size gap between him and Ace made people who didn't know Ace break into a cold sweat for him.

"Sharton, you have to be ready to save that little guy. Carrie's mace is not easy to keep." The instructor of the fourth team said to Shatton with a smile. Obviously, Carrie is a good player in his team.

"Haha." Shatton yelled, but didn't reply.

"drink!!"

Carrie in the arena had no intention of saying hello to Ace. With a low drink, he held the handle of the mace with both hands at the same time, lifted it up suddenly, and then slammed it straight at Ace.

However, facing the roaring mace, Ace had no intention of retreating or avoiding it. Instead, he pulled out the big knife behind his back with one hand, and directly met Jiali's mace head-on.

"Are you courting death?..."

When Jiali saw that Ace wanted to hold a knife with one hand, he wanted to block his own mace, his eyes were full of astonishment.

Even if you are number one in the leaderboard, isn't that too big? !

I use the strength of the mace to swing from top to bottom, how can I stop it?
However, the expression on Jiali's face was replaced by horror the next moment, and Ace really blocked it!
Ding! !

Some clear voices sounded, and Ace's big knife gleamed coldly, and it was just embedded in Jiali's mace.

The veins in Jiali's arms bulged, and he pressed down with almost all his strength, but he was horrified to find that Ace in front of him was only holding up with one hand, and the big knife was so stable that there was no tremor, making it impossible for the mace to penetrate an inch!

Most importantly, Ace's expression didn't change at all, obviously not exerting his full strength at all.

"how is this possible!"

"This is the power that a first-stage student can have!"

This scene on the ring made the students on the training ground widen their eyes in shock.

The eyes of Zefa on the rostrum also lit up. His training philosophy is different from that of many people. In his opinion, the ability of devil fruit is indeed very important, but the most important is the basic ability such as domineering and physical skills!

And having a power that is different from ordinary people is definitely of great benefit to the cultivation of domineering and physical skills.

He's more interested in this Ace!
"You are too weak."

Ace held the knife in one hand, his face was expressionless, and his calm tone reached Carrie's ears, making his face extremely ugly.

clang! !

Ace raised his right arm upwards suddenly, and Carrie felt a huge force in despair, and the huge mace was swung high into the air.

Today's Ace, after his physique has reached the peak of the school level, even if he does not use the pure body formula, his strength is infinitely close to the 2000 kg of a major general's junior.

So Ace is already in a far-leading position among the students in the first stage. Even Drake, as long as he doesn't use the ability of the devil fruit, he is no longer his opponent at all.

After swinging the mace away with a knife, Ace raised his foot and took a step forward. With a twist of his wrist, he slapped Carrie sideways with the blade.

Peng!
There was no surprise, under this knife, the two-meter-tall Jiali flew into the air, flew out of the ring, and fell to the ground with a bang, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

But Carrie didn't mean to resent Ace at all, because he knew that if Ace cut him with a blade just now, he could go to see his grandpa in heaven now.

"Ace wins!"

Seeing that Jiali had been kicked out of the ring, a staff member immediately announced the result.

"Means nothing……"

Hearing that the result had been announced, Ace put the machete back on his back, and then walked back to the center of the ring, waiting for the next challenger, without seeming to consume much energy at all.

"Please continue to challenge." The staff said to the students.

"I'm coming!" With a loud shout, a student with a samurai sword jumped onto the ring and challenged one of the ring masters.

The battle for the champion continues like this!

……

As the competition progressed, both Ace and Drake stood firmly on the ring. Although Ain encountered a strong opponent, he survived after a hard fight.

On the other two arenas, the champions have been changed back and forth several times.

On the rostrum directly in front, the four instructors and Zefa were also discussing.

"Among the students this time, it seems that there are quite a few good seedlings!" Zefa watched the battle on the ring and said with a smile, "That boy named Ace is only ten years old, he is very strong, and that Drake, the ferocious aura in the battle is also very strong... Finally, there is that little girl named Ain, whose swordsmanship is a bit spiritual!"

After complimenting the three students, Zefa smiled and looked at the instructors, and asked, "Whose students are they?"

As soon as he said those words, he found that the expressions of the instructors present were very strange. Except for Shatton who was smiling, the expressions of the other three instructors were very embarrassing.

"No... they are all from your fifth team." Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Zefa didn't know what was going on.

When he saw Shatton nodding, he couldn't help but let out a burst of hearty laughter: "Hahahaha, Shatton, you are very good. It seems that I will have a successor as the chief instructor! Hahaha!"

Shatton didn't even dare to speak, but he was very happy in his heart.

……

Under the constant challenges of the students, several hours passed quickly, and the first stage of the ring battle had come to an end.

Apart from Ace, the main players in the five arenas, Gaspardi and another two-sword student, Renn, each occupied a seat.

Gaspardi only made a challenge near the end, and the original challenger was not only exhausted, but also suffered a lot of injuries, so he was easily defeated by him.

This kind of behavior made Zefa on the rostrum frowned, obviously displeased with it.

"Okay, all five champions have been decided, and the second stage of the competition will begin!" Zefa pressed his hands down to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said to Ace and others: "I will draw lots for you , there is one bye, and the remaining four will fight in pairs!"

Pausing for a while, Zefa's majestic face showed a hint of naughtiness: "Luck is also a part of strength."

Immediately afterwards, the staff handed the lottery box with the five names written on it to Zefa. Zefa reached into the box and took out a note after stirring.

"Ain! Congratulations, you got the bye qualification, haha." Zefa read the name on the note and smiled.

Immediately afterwards, the remaining four people corresponded one by one in the order they were drawn, Drake played against Gaspardi, and Ace played against the two-handed Ren.
