Chapter 279 Unreachable
Chapter 279 Unreachable
The floor of the Royal Academy is made of special metal. It can not only accommodate thousands of people training at the same time, but also has the same friction as the ground.
At this moment on the playground, all the original students sat in the audience seats, leaving only the Red Earl and a group of students from the elite class.
The Red Earl held a bright red umbrella, and his expressionless face revealed a noble air.
Opposite him, the elite class students headed by Talvis were wearing the same yellow and white school uniforms and looked full of vitality.
Tarvis clasped his hands together, full of energy. He also wanted to know how powerful the pirate who gave his father a headache could be.
"It's time to go, Mr. Hong!"
With the Red Earl's nod, the battle is about to begin!
"Nancy, trap him!"
As soon as the battle started, Tarvis began to give orders.
As he finished speaking, a girl with long blue hair swung her hands, and two iron chains shot out towards the Red Earl.
Parahuman-Chain Fruit!
"Another devil fruit user, huh? But he's still too slow."
The Red Earl took a step forward and stepped back, and the two chains immediately fell into the air.
"Others, don't give him a chance to react!"
Four boys rushed forward at the same time, blocking the Red Earl on all sides.
But just as the four were about to succeed, the Red Earl moved the umbrella in his hand a little forward, and a dent appeared in front of one of them.
Although physical violence is not allowed, destroying the terrain is clearly not against the rules.
The man rushed in too hastily, stumbled, and fell straight towards the Red Earl.
With light steps, the Red Earl easily escaped from the encirclement, leaving behind four boys who were colliding with each other.
"Pay attention to the terrain and don't crash into each other!"
Tarvis shouted, but it was clear no one was listening.
The reward Zel promised was for one person, and no one was willing to pave the way for others, so they all rushed forward.
But it’s not that no one obeys orders, Tarvis also has his own close friends.
While the other students were surrounding the Red Earl, the two girls and four boys gathered together to discuss countermeasures.
The six-member team headed by Tarvisi includes the blue-haired girl and Nancy, the user of the Chain Fruit.
Maeve is a girl with short golden hair, a baby face and a rapier on her waist.
Brown is a four-meter-tall, short-haired, muscular White Gorilla Fruit user.
Richard, a tall and thin boy with a long face, is the user of the Ball-Ball Fruit.
Enzo is a young man with long red hair and large burns on his face, looking very ferocious.
And the purple-haired, strong and powerful ancient giant dragonfly ability user, Tarvis.
The six of them were not in a hurry to challenge the Red Earl, but instead observed the battle between the others and the Red Earl.
A crowd without organization and cooperation is like a toy in the hands of the Red Earl, played with and applauded by him.
Although the Red Earl did not attack, it did not mean that they would not be hurt.
Under the guidance of the Red Earl, collisions continued to occur, and many students were dizzy and lost consciousness.
The melee lasted for nearly half an hour, and a large number of students fell on the playground.
It was at this time that the six-member group, who had been preparing for a long time, finally took action.
Two chains flew out from the crowd and flew towards the Red Earl.
Just like at the beginning, the Red Earl easily dodged the chain's attack, but this time the attack went beyond that.
The next moment, Brown, transformed into a white gorilla, fell from the sky and threw a punch!
The Red Earl dodged the attack by turning sideways, but Brown did not take advantage of the opportunity. Instead, he grabbed the chain on the ground and swung it hard.
Nancy flew towards the Red Earl with the power transmitted from the chains, and four chains suddenly shot out from her body, blocking him.
Immediately afterwards, Enzo and Maeve rushed out from the left and right, Talvisi and Brown blocked the Red Earl in front and behind respectively, and Nancy was pulled over by Brown in the sky.
"Interesting, but not enough."
The umbrella rolled up the chain, tied a knot in a very short time, and then swung it towards Brown, who was the largest.
Seeing Nancy flying towards him, Brown had to stop and instead catch Nancy who was still in the air.
"Don't let him get away!"
Tarvis flapped his transparent wings and dived out immediately.
But in the eyes of the Red Earl, it was like slow motion. He pushed the ground hard and landed on Talvis's back.
boom!
Tarvis fell straight to the ground, but quickly reacted, waving one hand back, trying to touch the Red Earl.
But the Red Earl would not let him have his wish. He opened his umbrella, and then the strong wind from Talvis's fist pulled him away.
But it was not over yet. Maeve threw the rapier in her hand and it flew straight towards the Red Earl.
The Red Earl tilted his head slightly, and the rapier flew past his head.
"Teacher Hong, you've been fooled!"
Just when everyone in the audience thought the battle was over, an excited voice was heard.
Suddenly, countless small balls floated up from the ground where people were lying, and gathered towards the Red Envelope Duke.
It was Richard who had disappeared from the beginning!
The Red Earl gave a faint smile, but quickly suppressed it.
"Little tricks!"
Just when Richard thought he was going to succeed, the Red Earl simply disappeared on the spot.
The small balls gathered together and took the shape of Richard, but the Red Earl had already appeared in the distance.
"How...how can we play this?"
Richard's face was full of dejection. He knew this teleportation-like move, which was one of the six styles of the Navy, the Shave.
But the Red Earl's speed is much faster than that of ordinary navy, and they can't catch up with him at all.
The melee is over, or perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it a charade.
The Red Earl had not been touched once and still exuded a noble aura.
The other students fell to the ground, looking miserable.
The applause rang out again, and half of the students watching felt that Talvis and the others had done their best.
There were times when they felt they were about to succeed, but they always fell just short.
Of course, that little bit of hope was specially left for them by the Red Earl.
After this battle, the Red Earl became familiar with the students.
Barrett, who had been watching all this, was not very happy. After all, he and the Red Earl would be colleagues in the future, but the prestige of the two was very different.
As if she had seen through Barrett's thoughts, Carmen, who was full of ideas, suggested that he go up and show off his skills.
It means having him transform into a devil form and letting the others take turns hitting him to show off their defensive abilities.
Although he felt that Carmen had bad intentions, Barrett was also somewhat tempted.
So the second competition began.
Barrett successfully withstood everyone's attacks, allowing them to truly feel how thick the skin of the armed color strongman was.
It also corrected the academy's imagination of him as a second-rate strongman, and he gained the same respect as the Red Earl, at least that's what he thought.
