【One Piece】Dawn in the Darkness

Chapter 274 David's Tournament Ends Here

When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Lucci was standing in front of a stall selling Den Den Mushi.

Looking at the various Den Den Mushi on the stall, Lu Qi was a little surprised. He just wanted to give it a try and look at the stalls, but he didn't expect that he would actually find a white Den Den Mushi that could prevent eavesdropping. "You have a really complete range of Den Den Mushi here..."

"Of course, I'm an expert at catching Den Den Mushi and I've never failed!" said the stall owner proudly.

Lucci smiled, then pointed at a white Den Den Mushi and a regular Den Den Mushi and asked, "How much are these two?"

"2 berries for the white Den Den Mushi, and 1 berries for the other one."

"Then give me two Den Den Mushi and one white Den Den Mushi." Lucci looked at the stall owner and said.

He only needs one Den Den Mushi to contact Ace, and the white Den Den Mushi is just to prevent eavesdropping. He plans to leave the other Den Den Mushi for Luffy.

"Okay, thank you for your patronage!" The stall owner handed the Den Den Mushi to Lucci and watched him leave with a smile on his face. He lost a lot on this order. If other pirates came to buy it, he would definitely make a lot of money!

But I didn't expect that the one who came was this killing god! The boss smiled on the surface, but in his heart he was crying in pain.

He recognized the man as he came over, the symbol on his chest was obvious, he had done business with the Whitebeard pirates before.

He just didn't expect that the Whitebeard pirate would appear here, and was followed by such a small pirate group. He looked at the man's disappearing back, calmed down, and then felt happy in his heart. However, this was indeed useful information, and perhaps the navy would be willing to pay to get this information.

"Hahahaha, winning is a given! How could they lose?"

"Ms. Nami, Ms. Robin~Did you see that!?"

"Hi Hi!"

"It's very exciting, Sanji."

"That's right! Thanks to my command!"

"You didn't do anything, did you? Usopp."

When he returned to the arena where Luffy and his friends were, their conversation made Lucci couldn't help laughing. Luffy and his friends won the second round without any suspense.

"Lucci! We won!" Luffy waved at him vigorously, not noticing that his hand almost hit Chopper on Lucci's shoulder.

"Well done!" he responded enthusiastically, and out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of the captain of the Foxy Pirates kneeling on the ground in despair, and smiled "So, have you decided what you want to choose?"

"Yes!" Luffy's smile almost took up his entire face.

"Winning this round also means our duel is over." Qi said with a smile.

Nami and Usopp hugged each other and cried with joy, lamenting that their fears were finally over. They no longer had to worry about losing their partners, nor did they have to face those despicable opponents!

"What!?" Luffy reacted, looked at Qi in shock, and shouted dissatisfiedly, "What about me? What about me? I haven't gone up yet! No! I still want to..."

“You don’t want it!!”

Nami's sudden scream made Luffy subconsciously take a half step back. This familiar scream reminded him of the bad incident at the naval base last time. The next second, Nami jumped up at an amazing speed and punched Luffy hard.

"What are you doing, Nami?" Luffy covered his head and shouted in dissatisfaction, "It hurts!"

"You don't want to have another mean match!" Nami looked Luffy in the eyes firmly, even though he tried to look at her with longing eyes, normally she might lose to this look, but this time she really didn't want to have such a boring match again! !

After staring at each other for a while, Nami avoided Luffy's gaze and pretended to compromise, "Since you insist on having a third match, then let's do it!"

"Great!" Luffy immediately became excited.

Before Luffy could get excited for long, Nami sighed, looked at Luffy and continued, "In that case, the most delicious sea beast meat celebration party that I asked Sanji to prepare will have to be cancelled."

"Banquet, Nami, I want the most delicious sea beast meat banquet!!" Luffy immediately got excited when he heard about the banquet, then reacted and asked anxiously, "Nami! Why is the banquet cancelled?!"

Everyone watched the conversation between Nami and Luffy in shock. It was obvious that Luffy had been completely attracted by the delicious sea beast meat in Nami's mouth.

Nami looked at Luffy's anxious expression and smiled secretly in her heart, then she sighed and said with pretended regret, "If you had ended the game here, I would have asked Sanji to grill the most delicious sea beast meat for you to prepare a banquet. Since you want to compete in the third game, Luffy, I can only cancel the most delicious sea beast meat banquet."

Luffy looked at Nami in a dilemma, but was finally attracted by the most delicious sea beast meat banquet that Nami mentioned. "I want the most delicious sea beast meat banquet!!"

Usopp secretly gave Nami a thumbs up, while the others shook their heads helplessly.

Lucci looked at Luffy in amusement as he was practically jumping between Nami and Sanji, eager for the banquet Nami had mentioned and trying to get Sanji to grill him right now.

Sanji, who was entangled by Luffy, sighed and helplessly picked some marinated cooked meat from the food he won and processed it simply.

"Straw Hat Boy! I want to challenge you to a duel with all of us at stake!"

Lucci turned to look at Foxy, it was obvious that he had been broken down by two consecutive failures. From what he had observed in the past two days, according to Luffy's personality, he should agree to this provocation.

"do not want!"

"Why!?" Foxy shouted in disbelief. He had studied the Straw Hat Boy carefully. He knew that the boy was just a hot-blooded, naive pirate idiot. How could he refuse his challenge?!

Everyone looked at Luffy in shock. Like Lucci, they also thought that with Luffy's personality, he would agree to the challenge proposed by Foxy. Even Nami, who successfully seduced Luffy, did not think that Luffy would really give up the challenge, so they were shocked when they heard Luffy's straightforward refusal.

"I've already promised Nami that I won't participate in the competition." Luffy said while chewing the jerky that Sanji gave him, "And I don't like your crew, slot-head."

"How can you say that..." Foxy once again lay on the ground dejectedly.

"You have lost two games in a row and are about to lose your only pirate flag. We are not interested in your crew and ship." Qi looked at Foxy lying on the ground and said, "How can you compete with us?"

Foxy, who was lying on the ground, became more depressed, but then he stood up again after being comforted by the crew. He knew that the David Competition was completely over. Even if he was unwilling, as the man said, if they didn't want his ship and crew, then he would have nothing to use as bargaining chips.

"The Straw Hat Boy refused the boss's offer to fight the captain in a 1v1 duel with all the members, so..." the host continued to announce enthusiastically, "According to the traditional best-of-three format, the David Tournament is over!!"

"Oh!!" Pirate Foxy responded loudly.
