One Piece: Starting with the Reanimation of Madara

Then, everyone turned their attention to Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan simply smiled calmly and said, "Let Orochimaru explain it to you!"

Immediately, everyone's attention fell on Orochimaru, who had been silently taking notes on something.

After hearing Lin Xuan's words, Orochimaru also spoke up, saying, "According to my latest research, the reason why Devil Fruit users are countered by seawater is because there is a peculiar substance in the seawater of the One Piece world, similar to Sea Stone, but there is no such substance in the seawater of this world!"

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized what was going on, but then they all gave a wry smile.

Who would have thought that the composition of the seawater in the two worlds could be different?

Uchiha Izuna suddenly burst out laughing, saying, "Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter! Tobirama Senju is such a joke. He thought he could use the seawater to counter Whitebeard and then easily win, but he actually delivered himself to Whitebeard's doorstep and got blasted away. He's so stupid, hahaha..."

Because the surrounding audience was still immersed in the shock of the battle, and the surroundings were very quiet, Tobirama Senju, who had been knocked off the stage by Whitebeard, also heard Izuna Uchiha's voice, and his mouth twitched again.

However, Tobirama Senju did not get angry; instead, he calmly walked back to the contestants' area.

Then, he said calmly, "At least I'm much better than some people who can't even make it to the top 16!"

Uchiha Izuna's laughter stopped abruptly, his face turning bright red.

After holding it in for a long time, he finally roared angrily, "You just had a bit more luck, what's there to brag about!"

Tobirama Senju: "That's right, I was just a little bit lucky. It was just that little bit that allowed me to beat you every time!"

Uchiha Izuna: "..."

Chapter 307 Has Sun Wukong's luck run out?

With Tobirama Senju jumping out of the ring, the second match officially came to an end.

After a moment of shock, the host and the audience gradually came to their senses.

The host glanced at the seawater being rapidly drained through the sewers around the ring, and his feelings were somewhat complicated.

He didn't know whether he should be glad that he had stopped Lin Xuan earlier and installed a drainage system under the arena, or whether he should be upset that Lin Xuan and the others' arrival had completely changed the atmosphere of the World's Number One Martial Arts Tournament.

In the end, he decided to stop thinking about it. After all, what's done is done, and thinking about it wouldn't change anything.

So, after announcing the results of the match, he immediately announced that the third match was about to begin!

The third match: Hashirama Senju vs. the Fourth Mizukage!

When the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, took the stage, the female fans in the audience who had been captivated by him began to cheer excitedly.

Some people even shouted threats at Hashirama Senju from below the stage, saying that if he dared to hurt this cute boy, they would never let him get away with it.

Hashirama Senju's lips twitched involuntarily at this.

What's happening here?

In ninja battles, injuries are common even in routine sparring. I never expected that someone would threaten me before the match even started. What kind of nonsense is this!

However, when he looked at the Fourth Mizukage, he was even more puzzled. It didn't make sense. This kid looked weak and frail. Apart from being a little cute, he didn't seem to have anything special about him.

How come she's more popular than me?

Just as Hashirama Senju was lost in thought, the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, gave him a slight bow.

Regardless, Hashirama Senju was a senior figure in the ninja world, and although they came from different countries, they both deserved his respect.

Not to mention, they are all members of the Ninja Guild now, and there is no longer any distinction between countries.

Although Yagura Karatachi knew that Hashirama Senju was very strong, it was precisely because of this that he cherished this opportunity even more and truly felt the gap between himself and Hashirama Senju.

"The match begins!" the referee announced loudly.

The moment he finished speaking, the expressions of the two people on the stage instantly turned serious.

In an instant, Yagura Karatachi quickly increased his speed and appeared behind Hashirama Senju in the blink of an eye. His body had already entered Tailed Beast mode, and he slapped Hashirama Senju with a palm.

"Coral Palm!"

"boom!"

In the previous round, he used this move to restrict the Second Raikage's movements and finally eliminated him.

However, the same move failed this time, because just as Yagura's palm was about to strike Hashirama Senju, a giant tree suddenly rose from the ground and blocked his palm.

However, Yagura was not surprised. Instead, he quickly condensed a Tailed Beast Ball in his mouth and then spat it out towards Hashirama Senju.

"Wood Release: Ranking Technique!"

A menacing wooden shield suddenly appeared, easily blocking the Tailed Beast Ball. At the same time, Hashirama Senju launched an attack on Yagura Karatachi.

Just as Hashirama Senju made his move, Yagura Karatachi swiftly formed hand seals and shouted, "Water Release: Water Mirror Technique!"

A water mirror appeared beside him, and in the mirror appeared a person who looked exactly like Hashirama Senju. The person rushed out of the mirror and quickly engaged Hashirama Senju in battle.

The battle on the arena was extremely fierce, with both sides unleashing formidable fighting power.

Of course, Hashirama Senju did not unleash his full fighting power right away; he simply kept dealing with Yagura Karatachi's attacks.

This can actually be seen as a bit of care from Hashirama Senju for the younger generation of ninjas. Otherwise, he could have easily defeated Yagura Karatachi, but that would have been too embarrassing, and he couldn't have undermined the confidence of the younger generation.

Moreover, he was also a little worried that if he really beat Yagura too badly, he might be torn to pieces by the female fans in the audience after the match.

In the end, the battle lasted for about half an hour. Finally, Yagura's Water Mirror Technique was broken by Hashirama Senju, and he was finally knocked out of the arena and disqualified from fighting!

"Hashirama Senju wins the third match!"

The host announced directly that this result was expected, as everyone present could see that Hashirama Senju's strength was significantly greater than that of Yagura Karatachi.

However, when he announced the results of the match, he felt that the atmosphere was a little strange.

The host subconsciously looked down at the audience, then shrank back and took several steps back.

At this moment, Hashirama Senju was also having a headache. Even without looking, he could feel that a large group of female fans were glaring at him angrily.

"What on earth is going on in this world?" Hashirama Senju felt increasingly frustrated.

Back when he was still alive and serving as Hokage in Konoha, he was respected wherever he went. Now, however, he is being glared at by a large group of people, making it seem as if he has some deep-seated grudge against them.

After the match, the referee quickly drew lots again.

The World's Greatest Martial Arts Tournament has reached this point, and the final four have been selected. Next up is the semi-finals, after which two will be chosen to compete in the final championship match.

At this moment, many people couldn't help but feel nervous, quietly waiting for the final draw results.

Finally, the draw for the semifinals was revealed.

The first match: Lin Xuan vs. Sun Wukong!

The second match (where you'll win money) is between Hashirama Senju and Whitebeard!

The result of the draw immediately caused Klin and the others' expressions to change.

This time, it seemed like Wukong's luck had run out, and he actually ran into that guy named Lin Xuan!

They were originally thinking that if Goku could encounter Tobirama Senju, he might still have a chance to enter the final round, but unexpectedly he ran into Lin Xuan directly.

In contrast to their dejection, Sun Wukong wore a happy smile and said, "Finally, it's my turn to go on stage!"

After waiting for so long, it was finally his turn to appear. As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Wukong appeared on the arena in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, he was already eager to fight against a strong opponent!

Seeing Sun Wukong's impatient look, Lin Xuan couldn't help but smile. Then, in a flash, he also appeared on the arena.

Chapter 308 The Ninja Guild members were dumbfounded: Is this true?

On the arena, Lin Xuan and Sun Wukong stood facing each other, sizing each other up.

"I can sense that you are really strong, because you give me a very powerful feeling!" Sun Wukong said earnestly, these words were his true feelings at this moment.

Lin Xuan smiled and nodded, saying, "You're very capable too. I can see that you have a bright future ahead of you!"

The two exchanged a few words on the ring and got to know each other a little better.

Just then, the host shouted, "The competition begins!"

"boom!"

Just as he finished speaking, a violent collision sounded from the ring, making the audience's hearts jump.

The two fighters on the stage were already locked in combat.

The way they both chose to fight at the beginning was through close-quarters fist and foot combat!

Instantly, the entire arena was filled with the figures of the two colliding, but they were only blurry afterimages. Most people present could not see the trajectory of Lin Xuan and his companions' movements or the attacks in the battle.

On the other hand, those who watch the live broadcast on television are able to see some details because the television station can control the equipment to slow down the playback.

In an instant, exclamations of surprise were heard all over the world.

Lin Xuan naturally gained a lot of reputation points as a result, but the increase was not as exaggerated as Lin Xuan had imagined.

At this point, almost no one in the world believed that Sun Wukong would win the match, and the audience generally assumed that Lin Xuan would win.

The reason is that Lin Xuan's strength in the previous matches was too great, while Sun Wukong's opponent in the first match was Chi-Chi, and he had a series of byes afterward, so most viewers had no idea about his true strength.

In comparison, the number of people supporting Lin Xuan naturally increased.

Knowing this, Lin Xuan was even thinking during the battle whether he should deliberately lose to Sun Wukong to create a stir and earn more reputation points.
