Chapitre 58: Chapter 56: Are You a King?
Dungeon, first floor, outer zone, the northern area of Atlantis City, underground maze.
Rayleigh and others are currently in a state of confusion. This is because until now they still haven't found a single monster in the underground maze. They have been going around in the underground maze and have not encountered any monsters at all. The roads they walked also had no obstacles and obstacles that made it difficult for them.
If it weren't for the terrifying energy that energy gave Rayleigh and others a very deep sense of oppression and a sense of death. It can be said that this mission is a bonus mission for them.
The energy felt by Rayleigh and others when they first came to this underground maze is getting stronger and stronger. The deeper Rayleigh and the others went into the underground maze. They can all feel that the energy that suppresses them is getting stronger and stronger and the sense of death is also becoming stronger and stronger on their side.
Solome is an animal and his senses are very high beyond those of man. The further they stepped into the underground maze, Solome's speed dropped further and also his face was full of fear.
Although they felt a bad feeling from the energy emanating from within that underground maze. They continued to go deeper into the underground maze or rather because they did not find any monsters in the underground maze.
The current goal of Rayleigh and others is to go in the direction where the energy comes.
They realize that the mission they are currently doing is not an information-gathering mission related to what types of monsters are in the dungeon but what is contained in the dungeon.
They continued to go deeper and deeper into the underground maze until—
"Portal?"
They met a large portal. The portal is blue where the height of the portal is 8 meters while the width is 3 meters. On the inside of the portal, there is an environment of a cave that is very large and also very dark.
This location is also the end point of the underground maze.
"... The environment behind that portal... What is a cave?"
"There is something behind this portal," Rayleigh said seriously: "Something is likely something that radiates this terrifying energy"
Hancock and others also agree with this opinion from Rayleigh. Because upon arrival they were in this place. They could feel that the energy currently pressing on them was coming from inside this portal and there was likely a very terrible monster behind the portal even though they couldn't see it and only saw a very humid and also dark environment.
"What...*Swallowing*.... Do we have to go inside that portal?" Marigold asked in a nervous tone.
"We have to go in!" Rayleigh resolutely then turned to look at Hancock and her two sisters, "Our mission is to collect information, and as long as we don't get information related to something that's behind this portal. Our mission failed and it will be in vain for us to come to this place."
Rayleigh paused and said, "I can't guarantee what's behind this portal. But considering that the energy we felt came from the place and also the environment of the place was also scary. I can say that behind this portal is a very terrible monster. Even so, we have to keep going in and checking what's behind this portal to report information related to the place."
"Hmph! It's simply a disgusting monster" Hancock immediately commented coldly even though at this time she also had a feeling of fear, "Let's go in and complete this mission immediately!"
This feeling of fear experienced by Hancock made her very bad. Hancock felt this feeling almost like when he became a slave. Hancock wants to complete this mission immediately to get rid of these feelings.
Seeing Hancock who stepped into the portal, Rayleigh and others also immediately followed suit.
Dungeon, top floor dungeon, boss floor room.
Finally, Rayleigh and others have passed through the portal. At the moment when they passed through that portal, the portal they passed through disappeared instantly.
Along with the disappearance of the portal they were using, an instantaneous beam of energy appeared enveloping the environment. The radiance of that energy is terrifying.
"Agh"
"This is..."
"What the ** is this terrifying energy?"
"My body? In... How is it possible?!"
"This energy... Who owns this extremely terrifying energy?"
Rayleigh and others at the time felt the ejection of energy so terrifying that they couldn't shake their bodies in the slightest because of the fear they got from the energy beam. Their faces at the moment were full of cold sweat and also fear.
A few meters away from where they were at this time, you can see a figure who is currently sitting on a pile of bones. The figure has a body like an ant. However, unlike the case with ants that walk on four legs, the figure has a posture like a human. The monster has a tall body of about 2 meters and a slender body.
The monster's gaze instantly turned around and immediately stared at Rayleigh and others.
"This aura... This is the aura of a king!"
The monster's red eyes immediately lit up excitedly. The sound that is emitted even though it has a human-like voice. However, the voice is very cold and also has no emotion at all.
Instantly—
The monster instantly disappeared from its position at the time and appeared in front of Rayleigh directly. The appearance of the monster immediately made Rayleigh and the others surprised because of the speed shown him and also they could not feel the existence of the figure at all.
"Are you a king?"
Dungeon, first floor, Atlantis City, Colosseum.
Garp and Aokiji finally arrive at the Colosseum. When they arrived there, the two of them were immediately greeted by the Colosseum officers who immediately took them to the adventurers' registration place to become fighters in the Colosseum. The registration process is somewhat similar to their registration process when they first registered to be an adventurer. The difference is that they are required to pay a fee of 10 silver coins at the beginning of the registration process.
By the time the two managed to register and become part of the fighters in the Colosseum. They eventually got their own privately owned platform. The platform is used by someone to see their fight history and also their name has been recorded as a fighter.
"Kuzan, how about the two of us arrange a battle in the Colosseum?" Garp has successfully registered as a fighter in the Colosseum, for Garp, who is a fighting maniac, certainly will not let go of this opportunity to test himself inside the Colosseum, "Isn't it been a long time since the two of us last fought? I want to test the abilities you have. Is it still the same as it used to be or not"
"Fight with Garp-san? This is a pretty good idea. However, Garp-san, we currently have a mission to do as well also I am not sure that Zephyr-sensei will allow us to fight at this time in the Colosseum" Aokiji immediately said lazily.
Although Aokiji said so, Aokiji himself was quite interested in fighting with Garp in the Colosseum, especially since there is a battle feature with equal status. Aokiji wants to know whether he is better or not compared to Garp at the moment.
"Don't worry about it" Garp grinned excitedly, "We can arrange our battle tonight. Zephyr will not complain related to it"
"Night, huh? Well, I don't think it's a problem"
Garp eagerly headed to the battle registration site together with Aokiji. The Colosseum officers who were in the area immediately greeted Garp's arrival politely, "Welcome! Do you want to register a battle?"
"Sure!" Garp nodded.
"If you can tell, what is your name and who wants to be your opponent in the battle?"
"Garp, Monkey D. Garp" Garp said with great dignity of his name and said, "Arrange a battle for me with Kuzan"
"Ok" The Colosseum officer immediately made the arrangements desired by Garp and his gaze immediately turned towards Kuzan as he asked, "What are you, Kuzan-same?"
"That's right" Aokiji nodded.
Usually at the time when someone wants to register for a battle in the Colosseum. Officers will directly contact the opponent if the challenger wants to ask about his desire to fight at the Colosseum. As long as that opponent agrees to fight, the Colosseum will schedule their battle. However, the fighting side can also arrange the battle schedule as long as the two parties agree.
"What kind of battle do you two want to have?"
"Equal battle" Garp immediately answered him calmly.
"Do you agree?" The Officer asked, looking at Aokiji.
Aokiji calmly nodded. After getting a response from Aokiji, the Officer immediately confirmed the type of battle he wanted to do and then asked again, "Are you guys going to determine the battle schedule or the Colosseum itself will schedule it? Since you are already here, as long as you agree, the battle will be able to be carried out 1 hour from now"
"1 hour from now?" Aokiji raised his forehead, "Why can't it be done now?"
"Any battle that will be scheduled starts 1 hour after registration at the earliest. That 1-hour time will be used by our side to promote the battle to be fought"
"I see" Aokiji nodded, "Arrange the battle we have at 8 p.m. later. We can't do the battle for the time being"
"That's right" Garp nodded, "You arrange our battle at 8 p.m. later"
"I understand" The officer immediately arranged the battle schedule and when he was done he looked back at Aokiji and Garp as he said, "Registration has been completed. The battle is scheduled to be held at 8 p.m. Both fighters. We hope you can come 30 minutes before the battle starts so that you can fully prepare yourself before the battle is held."
Garp and Aokiji nodded.
"Garp-san, in that case, let's go right away," Aokiji said calmly, "We have to continue the mission and we should be able to rise to level 3 today"
"Yes. Let's go"
Garp and Aokiji immediately stepped away from the Colosseum. By the time they walked out of the Colosseum, they soon found a large number of battle promotion posters that had pictures of the two scattered in Atlantis City. Garp was very excited to see the poster while Aokiji himself was quite embarrassed, especially himself who almost all the way became the center of attention of the dungeon residents.
[Don't miss the hot battle that will be held at 20:00! This battle will be fought by two Colosseum fighters! Monkey D Garp Vs Kuzan! This battle is an equal battle where the two sides have equal attributes! I remind you again! Don't forget to come to the Colosseum for a while to watch the battle between the two!]
Meanwhile, Mihawk, who is currently on his way to the training ground, also saw the battle poster, "The battle between Garp and Aokiji? 8 p.m.? It's very interesting. Which of the two of them will come out victorious? I guess I will take the time to come to watch this battle"
Although the battle between the two did not involve a swordsman fight. However, both of them are figures who have already stood at the top of the world in the outside world. Of course, this battle is quite interesting for Mihawk to see even though later Garp and Aokiji will not use their full strength when in the Colosseum.
Mihawk then continued his journey to find a training ground to challenge the swordsman who was there.
Dungeon, top floor dungeon, boss floor room.
"Are you a king?"
A cold and emotionless voice went straight into the hearing of Rayleigh and others. A monster that has a shape like an ant but has a body posture like a human is currently standing in front of them. Although the monster's body is the same height as Rayleigh's. However, the aura emitted by the Monster made Rayleigh and others full of fear.
This feeling of fear that appeared in Rayleigh and others' bodies made them all unable to move their bodies at all even in detail. They can't move their bodies.
Their inability to move is due to the abilities possessed by the monsters in front of them at this time. The ability is called [Fear]
[Fear] is a common ability possessed by monsters that become floor bosses. Anyone who feels fear of these monsters will have the inability to move their bodies at all.
On the top of the monster's head, you can see the identity of the monster.
[Berr - Level? - Floor Boss ?]
"Floor boss? Is this monster in front of the floor boss? But, why the question mark? Is it possible that this monster is not the boss of the floor on this floor but on the top floor? Is it because the strength comparison is too far away that we can't see the details of the strength?"
Although at this time Rayleigh was full of fear that caused her body to be unable to move. His mind can still move and begin to analyze the situation that is currently happening.
"What happened to my body? Why can't I move it?" Hancock tried to move her body. However, no matter how hard he tried hard, she couldn't do it.
"You are indeed a King" Berr the floor monster again said coldly and also had no emotion toward Rayleigh, "However, you are too weak! You are not worthy of being called a king"
Berr's gaze then stared at Hancock. Hancock, who was immediately stared at by the red eyes from Berr, immediately felt a chill from her back where the cold was like death was already behind her back, "You also have the qualities of a King! However, weak"
"Roar!...."
"Agh!"
A roar full of anger came straight out of the monster where the roar directly smashed the eardrums of Rayleigh and others. Right now they couldn't move their bodies which caused them to get a direct attack from the roar.
Berr immediately raised his right hand and then immediately pointed his sharp nails at Rayleigh. Immediately, Rayleigh's body was split into two and it was not only Rayleigh who was hit by the attack but Hancock who was standing behind Rayleigh also her body was directly cut into two pieces.
"What—"
Even before being able to respond to the situation that is currently happening. Rayleigh and Hancock had been killed by Berr and their bodies had disappeared from the site.
Sandersonia and Marigold who saw this incident had goosebumps. Although they were both furious to see Hancock being killed right before their eyes. The feeling of fear this time enveloped them. Their bodies couldn't be moved at all and followed by their bodies shaking with fear.
"Are you two servants of those Kings? It's rubbish"
Berr without wasting much time immediately killed Sandersonia and Marigold by slashing the entire body of the two of them into small pieces. The bodies of Sandersonia and Marigolds instantly disappeared from the venue.
Berr then immediately returned to his previous position and muttered, "Is it still a long time for a King to be worthy to come to this place? It's very boring"
