Chapter 249 The third round of the confusing act begins!
Under the gaze of countless eyes, Gerard actually sat directly on the cold ice surface!
What was even more surprising was that he then took out a complete set of exquisite tea-making tools from his pocket and began to make tea leisurely.
This sudden scene confused everyone present and those watching the live broadcast. Everyone was thinking to themselves, "What's going on with Gerard? Is he planning to give up the game?"
Even Kizaru on the side was confused. He subconsciously turned around and looked at Sengoku, but Sengoku did not give him any hints or instructions.
In fact, this battle was originally launched according to Marshal Warring States' intention.
Kizaru is well aware that he has an important mission. He needs to follow Marshal Sengoku's requirements and use his speed advantage to control the rhythm of the game and ultimately achieve a draw.
After all, although Jellal possesses the powerful ability of the Thunder Fruit, in terms of speed, it may not necessarily be better than his Pika Pika Fruit.
"Admiral Kizaru, would you like to have a cup of tea? Iced green tea, you must have never had it~~~" After pouring two cups of tea, Jellal called softly to Kizaru in a very calm tone.
Seeing that Jellal didn't make any defensive moves, and didn't even show any signs of attacking him, not only that, he actually took the initiative to invite him to drink tea, and it was iced green tea, which made Kizaru's doubts even stronger.
You know, they can be regarded as sworn enemies of each other!
However, since Gerard had made the invitation so openly in front of so many people, he naturally could not lose face for the navy, so he followed the other party's wishes and walked calmly to the tea table and sat down.
"Since the Pirate King's vice-captain has invited me personally, I will come and taste the tea you brew." Kizaru said as he picked up the cup of tea in front of him.
"Please~"
Jellal said this very politely and without waiting for Kizaru's reaction, he picked up the teacup and drank it all.
Seeing this, Kizaru first looked at Jellal deeply, then raised his head and drank the tea in his hand.
"Shigoku Ichinai, iced green tea? It's really delicious. Wadashiva has never tasted such delicious green tea..." Kizaru gave a high evaluation of the iced green tea brewed by Jellal.
This was the first time he tried green tea of this flavor and it tasted pretty good. However, he did not forget his mission.
At this moment, Jellal stood up, and Kizaru was startled. Was Jellal going to attack? Thinking of this, Kizaru did not dare to be careless, and directly transformed into an element and flew into the air!
However, to Kizaru's surprise, Jellal did not launch an attack. He just shook his head and smiled slightly, then gave Dragon a signal, and then jumped back to the platform and sat down next to the Empress, with no intention of continuing the fight.
"What does it mean……"
"Are you admitting defeat? Or something?"
"How can he admit defeat? Jellal is a user of the dual fruit ability!"
"but now……"
"What on earth happened? Does anyone understand?"
For a moment, there was a lot of discussion in the field. Everyone was very puzzled by Gerard's behavior, and the people around the world who were watching the live broadcast were even more confused.
On the high platform, after seeing Jellal's secret signal, Dragon smiled slightly, as if everything was under his control. He understood what Jellal meant, and this was something that had been discussed long ago.
Just when everyone was confused, Dorag flew into the air, and Morgans also walked to the center of the field. Everyone fell silent in an instant. After all, Morgans was the host, and Dorag was the referee of the competition!
"The second match ended in a draw. There should be no problems for both sides!" Dorag announced directly.
With a bang, the entire fighting field was completely ignited. No one understood why it was a draw, why Gerard didn't continue the fight...
Dragon mainly looked at the navy. After all, this was Jellal's idea, and now he only needed the navy's attitude. Then he saw the expressionless Sengoku nodded, indicating that he agreed with this result.
Dorag nodded and returned to his referee seat.
“Hahaha!”
"You can't imagine the result of this second fight, right? Actually, I can guess a little. In the second fight, one side has the ability of the Thunder Fruit, and the other side has the ability of the Flash Fruit. Both sides have the ability of the fruit to achieve extreme speed. It is very difficult to determine the winner!
Of course, if someone keeps dodging by transforming into an element, the fight will last longer! I think everyone should understand what I mean, right? So the second fight ending in a draw is the most appropriate outcome. "Morgans, the host, laughed and explained.
"So that's it..."
"Hahahaha, that's true. At that speed, it won't take at least ten days or half a month to get any results!"
"That's right. The second fight ending in a draw is probably the best verdict."
"That's right, that's right. Besides, it seems like the navy doesn't want to engage in a head-on battle. Hahahaha..."
Following Morgans' explanation, the people in the arena and the audience watching the live broadcast suddenly realized that it was indeed difficult to determine the winner between the Thunder Fruit and the Sparkle Fruit.
However, many people also began to laugh at the navy's cowardice.
Just like the previous battle with Green Bull, if the user of the natural devil fruit ability always remains in the elemental state, then such a battle cannot be called a real battle.
What's more, the Pika Pika Nomi itself is so special that if the user chooses to transform into an element, it will indeed leave the opponent helpless.
On the navy camp, after hearing the discussions on the arena, many people felt aggrieved. They felt that their navy had really lost face today!
But when they saw that their marshal had no comment on this, they could only suppress their frustration.
Kizaru was the most shameless member of the navy. He was completely indifferent to the discussions on the field and returned to the platform on the navy side very calmly.
"Thank you for your hard work, Borsalino..." Sengoku comforted softly.
Although this fight did not go as he expected, the result was the same, and that was fine. The only difference was that Kizaru would have to sacrifice a little bit of his reputation.
"It's okay, Marshal Sengoku, this little discussion means nothing to me." Kizaru responded calmly.
“Hahaha!”
"Since both parties have recognized this result, I declare the third match officially begins!
Both parties are invited to come on stage!" Morgans announced passionately.
