Chapter 1285: The Pirates return (15)

He didn’t know who made this rule, but it seemed that everyone who went to the arena had to give a nickname.

‘Bottle opener’ and ‘Triceratops’ were naturally not his real names.

Of course, this was also a good thing, because … If they announced their real names in this kind of competition, the audience was likely to hear the introduction of “let’s welcome John Smith” and “James Brown”, which was obviously quite boring.

Back to the main topic …

Amidst the clamoring of the surrounding Pirates, the two contestants slowly walked to the center of the “boxing ring.”

!!

The man with the broken Gong stood between the two men, preventing them from having any physical contact before the match officially began.

The two contestants also took advantage of the last preparation time to check their boxing gloves. (The boxing gloves were provided by the organizers of the deck boxing match. In order to ensure the safety and viewing of the game, the contestants must wear boxing gloves before they can participate in the game.)

When the atmosphere was almost heated up, the man with the broken Gong voice began to read the rules,””There are five rules. First, you are not allowed to use any form of props. Second, special abilities are not allowed. Third, you’re not allowed to hit anything below the waist, fourth, you’re not allowed to cripple your opponent with malicious intent, and fourth, you’re not allowed to kill your opponent. Fifth, no killing. ”

At this point, he paused and continued,”Those who violate the first four rules will be immediately disqualified. As for those who violate the fifth rule … Hehe …”

He only smiled, but didn’t say what kind of punishment would be received for killing.

However, all the crew members were well aware of the consequences.

On Queen Anna’s revenge, the matter of “intentional killing of companions” was a “matter of principle”. Those who did this … Even if they escaped to the ends of the earth, Blackbeard would find them and “punish” them.

“Alright, is there anything you two don’t understand?” A few seconds later, the man with the broken Gong looked at the two “contestants” and asked.

“No, I didn ‘t,”

“Hurry up and start.”

The other two responded quickly and firmly. They were like two wild beasts in heat, full of fighting spirit and energy.

“Then … Today’s first match,’bottle opener’ versus ‘Triceratops’… Now … Begin!”

His broken Gong voice was also very skilled in breaking sentences. He retreated as he spoke, and when he finished the last two words, he had just left the range of the ‘boxing ring’.

Pfft!

Only a second later, the sound of fists colliding could be heard.

The boxing gloves used in this ‘boxing match on deck’ were specially made with magic materials. In addition to the protective functions that ordinary boxing gloves should have, their most important function was to “limit the upper limit of the user’s physical skills.”

As the members of the Blackbeard Pirates were generally very strong, if they were to fight with their bare hands, even if they did not use their “special abilities”, it would be easy for them to end up in a situation of “three punches to one, one’s skin and flesh being torn open, and the other’s bones and tendons being broken.”

In that kind of match, as long as one wasn’t careful … There would be accidental injuries, or even accidental kills.

Therefore, brother garlic and the others came up with the idea of ‘boxing gloves’ to suppress the strength, speed, stamina, resistance, and other basic attributes related to physical skills of the people who wore these gloves to a certain level. In this way, it could be guaranteed that this “deck boxing match” was mainly a competition of skills and not purely a crushing battle.

Of course, there was a limit to the “restrictive power” of the gloves. Once the wearer’s physical skills exceeded the item’s working limit, there was no difference whether he wore it or not.

This was also why … None of the officers on the ship could participate in this competition.

Pfft pfft pfft pfft pfft

While I was explaining the settings, the bottle opener had already gained the upper hand in the match.

He relied on a series of fast and powerful attacks to gradually force the Triceratops to the edge of the ring … Or rather … To the side of a wooden bucket.

“Hey! Hold on, you bastard!”

“Good luck! Knock him down!”

“I’ve bet a week’s worth of wine! Hurry up and beat him down!”

Those “spectators” who had placed their bets outside the battle circle were not stingy with their vocal cords at all. They were all shouting at the top of their lungs, expressing their position and motives.

Perhaps this wasn’t the best competitive atmosphere, and it had nothing to do with sportsmanship.

But … For this kind of unorthodox competition, this was the right atmosphere.

“What do you guys think?” At that moment, Feng bujue, who was watching the match from a high net, asked his two teammates,”who will win?”

Ambitionist and snow were also hanging on the rope. They used their extraordinary vision to observe the situation on the boxing ring.

“I don’t know much about boxing.” Ambitionist replied noncommittally,”but from the looks of it … That ‘corkscrew’ is about to win, right?”

“Hehe …” At this moment, Snow’s face showed an experienced expression. He chuckled and said,”brother ambitionist, you’ve misjudged this time …” He paused for half a second and said confidently,”in my opinion … Although these two people’s boxing skills are not very good, relatively speaking, the Triceratops knows a little more basic knowledge, so …”

“Oh?” Ambitionist was a very experienced person. He understood that snow was taking the opportunity to brag, so he went with the flow and said,”brother snow, you seem to know a lot about boxing … Why don’t you analyze it for us …”

“Yes.” “I would like to hear it too,” Feng bujue added.

Although the Triceratops was still being beaten up in the boxing ring while the three of them were talking, snow still said with confidence,”Actually, for an expert, these things are obvious at a glance …

“First, you have to look at the posture of the body, the posture of the hands, and … The pace.

“Pay attention … From the start of the battle until now, even though the opponent has been forcing the Triceratops to retreat, there hasn’t been much change in the Triceratops ‘overall posture. Its movements have also maintained a fast and steady rhythm.

“Next, let’s look at the defense …

“Professional boxing’s defense is a very high-level technique. Many people thought that boxing was a simple sport where two people beat each other up, but in fact … It was much more technical than many seemingly fancy sports, and ‘defensive techniques’ were the most important.

“Those who think that this sport is simple, if they fight against professional boxers, they won’t be able to win even if the opponent doesn’t punch … Because in front of professional defensive skills, ordinary people’s fists can’t even touch the opponent’s body.

“Of course … The Triceratops in front of us isn’t that powerful. He’s at most an entry-level. Even so … Up until now, his defense is still ‘watertight’.”

“Hold on.” Ambitionist interrupted him.”It’s not right to say that it ‘s’ watertight ‘, right?” He pointed in the direction of the boxing ring.”The Triceratops has been getting beaten up all this time.”

“However, there wasn’t even a single ‘effective punch’, right?” Snow continued,”a ‘professional-level’ punch is another matter, but at least this ‘bottle opener’ punch … If it hits the arm or the outside of the body, or if it’s blocked by the boxing glove … The damage caused is almost negligible.”

“Not only did he not suffer any damage, on the contrary … It caused his physical fitness to decline faster than the defenders.” At that moment, Feng bujue suddenly finished Snow’s sentence.

“Ha …” Snow immediately laughed.”So you know … Are you pretending again?”

“Yes, I am.” Feng bujue admitted it without thinking much of it. “The reason I asked that question earlier was to show off my knowledge to the two of you. I didn’t expect that … You’re a smart person. So, I’ll let you act cool. ”

“Uh … After hearing such sincere and vulgar words …” Snow narrowed his eyes and ridiculed,”should I admire your honesty, or should I marvel at the thickness of your skin?”

While they were talking, the situation in the boxing ring suddenly changed.

He saw that the bottle opener was gradually showing signs of exhaustion after a series of fierce attacks and failed to break through. His fists no longer had the strength and speed from not too long ago, and his breathing was getting heavier.

Seeing this, the Triceratops knew that the time had come. He seized the gap between the opponent’s punch … And counterattacked with a jabbing punch to the chin of the bottle opener.

Although it was only one punch, an “effective” punch was more effective than ten “ineffective punches” that were blocked by the defense.

The bottle opener staggered and lost its balance. After retreating several steps, he finally found his balance … And didn’t fall to the ground.

On the other hand, the Triceratops sneered and chased after him, greeting him with a set of combination punches.

The bottle opener had used up too much of his stamina in the attack just now, and his reaction time was no longer able to keep up. He was instantly forced to retreat.

On the other hand, the Triceratops ‘footwork was light and agile, and it made use of the field’s width nimbly. It changed its moves in a roundabout way, and combined reality with illusion. It quickly disrupted the bottle opener’s footwork and posture … In this way, it was only natural that there were flaws in its defense.

“Brother ambitionist, did you see the difference between their punches?” At this moment, snow spoke again.

Ambitionist quickly replied,’ah … In comparison, it’s quite obvious. The bottle opener’s punches relied on brute force and an instinctive punching posture … While the Triceratops ‘punches relied on’ explosive force ‘, not only on the arms and shoulders … He used strength from the lower body to the back; After a punch, the body can also regain balance in an extremely short time and be ready to make the next move. ”

“That’s right. This is the difference in the ‘offensive’ aspect.” Snow nodded and continued,”if you want to win in a boxing match without a ‘turn rest’, it’s a must to master the correct punching method … Otherwise, you’ll be like that Mr. Bottle opener … Even if you get the chance to attack first, you’ll exhaust your energy in a very short time and fall into an irreversible defeat.”

Bang Bang Bang

Before snow could finish his sentence, on the other side of the ring … Bottle opener’s sturdy body had already fallen to the ground.

“Fall to the ground!” The man with the broken Gong voice shouted loudly and began to count,”one, two, three …”

Just now, when snow and ambitionist were discussing how to punch, the corkscrew in the ring took another five or six “effective hits” from the Triceratops … And these five or six hits were enough to end the contest.

“Four … Five … Six …” Although he could tell with a glance that this guy couldn’t stand up, for the sake of the program, he still counted and consciously counted slower and slower.

“Quickly get up! Bastard!”

“Damn it … I’m going to lose my money for alcohol.”

“Yay~well done! Beautiful!”

Seeing that the outcome had been decided, the audience’s reaction was mixed with joy and worry. If there was a winner, there would be a loser … Fortunately, there was a limit to the amount of money that could be bet (this rule was incited by Blackbeard’s executives, and it was also because of this move that the boxing on deck was controlled to be in the category of “small gambling for entertainment,” and there had been no trouble so far). The winner would not make a lot of money, and the loser would not jump into the sea to commit suicide.

“…Nine … Ten!” It took her nearly 20 seconds to finally count the 10 numbers.

He then jumped into the arena, grabbed the Triceratops ‘right wrist, and raised it up.””The winner! A Triceratops!”

The moment the result was announced, cheers, boos, and sighs of disappointment … All of them interwove.

Next, it was time for the first round of wagers to “pay” and “place their bets” on the second round.

As for this matter, it was better to let the three of them handle it. It didn’t take long to settle the bill because only those who had won money needed to pay. The second round of betting didn’t last long either. In the first round, there would definitely be people who’ lost ‘or’ won enough ‘and would not participate in the later rounds of betting.

In short, after seven or eight minutes, the second round of preparation work was ready.

The man with the broken Gong once again stood in the middle of the ring and shouted,””Guys! Didn’t today’s warm-up match end a little too quickly?” He paused and laughed.”It’s okay … The earlier we watch the newbies pecking at each other, the earlier we can see the main show!”

As the host of the pirate ship, he didn’t have to care too much about his words and expressions, and he didn’t have to worry about offending anyone. For example, the phrase “newbies pecking at each other” in front of him was definitely inappropriate in a formal competition. However, on a pirate ship, it didn’t matter if they cursed, let alone called him a “rookie …” Pirates who spoke vulgarly wouldn’t hold grudges against each other just because of a few unpleasant words.

“Now … Please welcome …” A few seconds later, the voice of the broken Gong rose a little.”The defending boxing champion of the boxing match on the deck …”

At the same time, body hair bro was actually holding an upside-down metal bucket and beating the drum with the two broken broom handle.

“Forty-five fights … Forty-five wins …” The man with the broken Gong did not report the number of KO’s because all the victories in the boxing matches on the deck were KO ‘s.”He has never fallen to the ground so far … He’s a top master who easily wins every match with an absolute advantage …

He’s a giant from the North …

He’s a sea monster that crawled out of the abyss …

“He’s the creator of pain, the Trampler of confidence …

“He’s …’Wei’ Jing’s people ‘.”
