Reincarnated as Kaido, married Big Mom, and formed a dual-Emperor pirate crew.

Chapter 245 The final battle of the top 32, the selection competition for the top 100

Wang Zhi struggled to his feet. He never imagined that he would have such a difficult time against a youngster like Sakazuki.

The last guy who made things so difficult for him was Kaido.

But Kaido is another story.

After all, they were in the same pirate crew, and he had witnessed Kaido's growth firsthand. Although he was reluctant to admit it, he knew very well how monstrous Kaido's kids were.

Compared to Kaido, what makes Sakazuki stand out?!

With just the Logia-type Magma-Magma Fruit?!

Wang Zhi let out a roar and charged towards Sakazuki.

……

A dozen minutes later.

Wang Zhi collapsed to the ground, his face limp and exhausted. His entire body was covered in burn marks from the scalding lava.

He was defeated by the young man once again.

Compared to Sakazuki's explosive magma power, his Armament Haki wasn't really that strong.

Looking at Sakazuki now, although he wasn't completely unharmed, with blood flowing from many places, he wasn't seriously injured at all.

"Wang Zhi!"

Sakazuki's entire right arm turned to magma, and he stood on the ice not far from Wang Zhi.

"As a loser of the old era, your time has come to an end!!"

Sakazuki bent his magma arm to gather strength, but just as he was about to kill Wang Zhi, Wang Zhi spoke first: "I surrender!"

For a veteran powerhouse to concede defeat when fighting a younger opponent is clearly a very shameful thing.

But compared to dying for the sake of saving face, Wang Zhi would rather live.

So what if he loses face? His reputation wasn't that great to begin with anyway. Besides, if he dies, he'll really lose everything.

Compared to Silver Axe and the others who died in God Valley, Wang Zhi was clearly better at making choices.

Upon hearing Wang Zhi's words, Sakazuki's instinctive reaction was to refuse to accept them.

You think you can just admit defeat like that? You want to force me, Sakazuki, to retract that finishing blow? Who do you think you are?! Don't I, Sakazuki, have any dignity?!

As for Wang Zhi's secret dealings with the World Government, let alone the fact that Sakazuki is not qualified to know, even if he did know, so what?!

Sakazuki believed in absolute justice and would not let go of the opportunity to kill Wang Zhi over such a trivial matter!

However, Wang Zhi's words were useless, but what Morgans said was very useful.

Seeing that Sakazuki seemed to be really going to disregard the tournament rules and kill Wang Zhi, who had already surrendered, on the spot, Morgans, who was on the host's platform, took the initiative to speak up.

"Sakazuki, please be mentally prepared before you take the shot at Wang Zhi, who has already surrendered."

"The rules of the World Martial Arts Tournament were clearly explained before the start of the event."

"If you insist on violating this rule, the Beasts Pirates have the right to take direct action against you during the tournament."

Upon hearing Morgans's blatantly obvious threat, Sakazuki's expression shifted as he clenched his magma fist.

He may be arrogant, but he's not a fool.

In the territory of the Beasts, if you violate their rules and end up having to deal with Kaido personally, or even if Kaido and Charlotte Linlin take action together, which means a Marine Admiral has to come, it will be very difficult for you to escape unscathed.

After a brief moment of deliberation, Sakazuki let out a cold snort.

"You shameless old man!!"

After finishing his rant, Sakazuki put away his magma fist and walked off the ring with a disgruntled expression.

Having narrowly escaped death, Wang Zhi watched Sakazuki's departing figure without any hint of mockery in his eyes.

Even his dwindling ambition began to dissipate rapidly at this moment.

With a soft sigh, she said, "The times have completely changed, and I've grown completely old..."

The twelfth battle has come to an end.

Viewers watching the live stream felt very sorry that Sakazuki didn't dare to defy the tournament rules.

"Why don't you dare to kill Wang Zhi?!"

"What's there to be afraid of in Kaido! Wang Zhi is the greatest source of evil in the world's slave industry!!"

"If Wang Zhi doesn't die, it's an outrage against Heaven!!"

Sakazuki was oblivious to the resentment from the audience. On Ore Island, most of the pirates were just busybodies who loved to watch the drama unfold, so Sakazuki was unlikely to take their words to heart.

However, this retreat did indeed leave Sakazuki quite dissatisfied.

As a marine, he actually chickened out when facing pirates...

This was almost unforgivable to Sakazuki, especially since the coward was himself.

Snapped!

A loud slap echoed in the lounge as Sakazuki slapped himself hard across the face.

"I'm still too weak! Starting today, I need to double my training volume!!"

"Pirates! They all must die!!"

……

outside world.

After several consecutive matches, it was already noon.

The World's Greatest Martial Arts Tournament has been temporarily suspended, and a lunch break is now in effect.

A large group of staff, led by Morgans, began to take advantage of this time to eat lunch and rest.

Another group of reserve personnel, who had been resting and recuperating, took over their posts and began to review the battles that broke out this morning for a global audience during the lunch break.

Morgans had already reviewed the event once before, but due to time constraints, he couldn't cover everything. This second review allows for a detailed explanation of the various aspects of the ring, enabling viewers of average skill to understand why the losing side lost and what made the winning side so powerful.

Even though viewers had seen these battle recaps before, audiences around the world still found them fascinating.

Enjoy your lunch while patiently appreciating the scenery.

Especially those young people who have gained some strength but don't know how to continue to grow stronger.

They watched the battles and the replays with great care, hoping to learn techniques and experiences from the battles of these strong individuals to make themselves even stronger.

And just like that, lunch break passed quickly.

One o'clock in the afternoon.

The thirteenth match of the World Martial Arts Tournament is about to begin.

Morgans, back in his post, once again began his passionate speech.

With his commentary, the opponent for the thirteenth match also made his official appearance.

They are Charlotte Linlin, the Queen of the Dragon Kingdom, known as the world's most beautiful woman, the world's strongest woman, and a born destroyer.

VS!

Another member of the Knights of God, Ross Blaya.

This is a battle purely between women.

When the portraits of the two people appeared simultaneously on the live broadcast, viewers all over the world became extremely interested.

"Women fighting! I love watching that the most!!"
