Endless Adventure - Chapter 106
I looked at the arena and saw two Minks were fighting. One of them was a buff humanoid red panda? He had reddish-brown fur, and a long shaggy tail. It was quite shocking seeing an animal smaller than a raccoon having a body of a bear. The normally cute animal such as red panda now looked Fiercer than a tiger. Clenching his fists the humanoid red panda sent a punch towards his opponent.
His opponent was a humanoid fox like creature with unusually large ears. The humanoid fennec fox easily dodged the red pandas punch and countered him with a high kick. Every attack performed by the two was powered by “Electro”.
Users of Electro can channel electricity through parts of their bodies in order to shock anything they touch. This power can also be channeled through weapons. This technique grants extra damage to attacks, giving the opponents electric burns and paralysis.
All minks can use Electro, including infants and the elderly. The inability to produce Electro is a sign of not being a mink.
Electric sparks almost hit me many times during my watch. Not only me but many people on stands were hit by the loose electric attacks. This led many people leaving the Tournament. After just twenty minutes of them I saw fighting half of the people left. I descended and asked a guard about the situation. I asked him, “It’s so weird why are people leaving? It’s like they disrespect my ancestor!”
The guard’s body shook and he answered by saying, “This is not about disrespect but about the persistence. Your highness you see today had to be the battle royale fight between the four finalists. When the fight started four hours ago only two people were left. The people on the arena fought for four hours and hour ago people requested for the supervisor to announce the draw. Even after four hours nobody won and it was easy to see that they have equal strength and stamina. Many people requested for the supervisor announce the draw but he refuses!”
I looked at the guard and asked why. He answered by saying, “This is the first time in history that the two fighters have equal strength. Some would have more power and others more stamina. There was no draw before for the finals and the supervisor doesn’t want that.”
I looked around and yelled out, “Densetsu come here!”
Densetsu appeared right next to me after hearing my yell. I asked him, “What do you think about those two?”
Densetsu answered by saying, “They are quite strong for their age. They are stronger than the person before so I agree with your choices!”
I smiled and said, “Then please go and talk with the supervisor and tell him that both of them won. We have to get ready to go!”
After saying that I went back towards the restaurant. There I would meet my subjects.
…
After six days it was already start of the exploration. I was now sitting in Wc. Donalds and eating my breakfast. Two people stood behind me. One of them was a humanoid red panda aka Youpi and other was a humanoid fennec fox aka Pitou. They stood behind me like that for an hour and it was really awkward. I looked at them said, “You guys can sit on chair!”
Both Pitou and Youpi answered simultaneously, “We can’t! From Shaiapouf we heard you were attacked by ȧssassins when eating and they disturbed you enjoying your meal!”
After hearing them I went back to eating my food. After twenty minutes Densetsu appeared and said, “Your highness the ship is ready!”
I stood up and followed him. We arrived before the gigantic ship in ten minutes. The ship was fully metallic and was colored blue. It looked like a marine ship from the series. I looked at Densetsu and asked the question that bothered me for some time. I asked him, “From what I know the Kingdom doesn’t produce flying vessels. Isn’t it more convenient to produce them?”
He answered by saying, “Your highness sixty percent of the people in the world know Geppo. We have technology to develop airships but it would be too expense to maintain them. And even if we spend that much money on air ships it would be useless. Sixty percent of the people could use Geppo so they would use it to move around the planet. For exploration and transportation of resources we could just use normal ships. It way he slower but it will cost less. It’s not like the world is separated by the super long wall that makes it hard to travel!”
That example was super specific but he’s correct. Red Line doesn’t exist in this time period and there is no actual need for people to make airships. I looked at him and asked, “What about wars? Isn’t airships useful during wars?”
He answered, “There was no major war for three hundred years. No country would be stupid enough to fight against our Kingdom. Also we have twenty countries as our colonies that serve us!”
“Twenty countries?” I asked.
“Yes! During the peak of our military power. Three generations of Kings conquered and colonized twenty countries. Now those countries create weapons, supply food and Devil Fruits for the Kingdom!” He answered.
I was shocked and asked, “Those colonies have that much power?”
Densetsu smiled and said, “Don’t worry no country will rise against the Kingdom. And even if they do we could easily subdue them. Capital has the strongest people in the world. We have the strongest army! The royal family in that countries are also part of the Void Kingdom bloodline!”
I was almost dying from this revelation. You’re saying that the twenty countries out there have so much power and the royal family there have bloodline rights to rule the world. I think I chose the wrong side.
