----------
On the game interface, the ranks started from "Tough Bronze," followed by "Order of Silver," "Glory of Gold," "Noble Platinum," "Eternal Diamond," "Master Star," and then the three highest tier- "Super King," There were more ranks after that, but they weren't displayed yet, only visible after reaching Super King.
The people of the Beast Pirates were shocked; there was actually a ranked match!
The ranks within the game were not difficult to understand because their Beast Pirates also had a system of divisions.
For example: Waiters, Pleasures, Gifters, Headliners... Tobiroppo, All-Stars, and so on!
Facing the novel ranked match at this moment,
They all immediately couldn't resist playing a round, but Boss Kaido was fighting, so playing a round now wouldn't be good, right?
But fighting and playing games at the same time? It shouldn't interfere, right?
The same thought spread through everyone's minds at the scene. Some marginal grunts glanced around and saw a few companions already secretly hiding by the ship's railing and starting a game. Their hearts also hardened.
"Anyway, I'm just cannon fodder. It's worth it to play a ranked match before I die!"
With the first and second, more and more people followed, and a commotion also appeared among the crowd.
Queen's eyes darted around, and he leaned into the furious Kaido's ear and whispered, "Boss, look... that old man Whitebeard won't be taken down anytime soon, and those guys from the Revolutionary Army are watching like tigers from the side..."
He shook his phone, "How about we teach them a lesson in the game? Five-man ranked team, directly looking down on them from King of Glory!"
Kaido gripped his Hassaikai tightly, but his eyes had already begun to waver. He noticed his subordinates were all absentmindedly staring at their phones, and even Jack was secretly topping up.
A strange atmosphere began to spread over the sea. The originally bloodthirsty Pirates were now filled with thoughts of "climbing the ranks," "rank," and "skins"!
The situation on Whitebeard's side wasn't much better. Marco had already silently purchased the Phoenix skin, and Sabo was researching the newly released "Dragon Claw Fist Daruma" skin. Ace was even more curious and leaned next to Sabo, watching him play.
"Gurarararara..." Whitebeard suddenly burst into laughter, planting his Murakumogiri onto the deck. "Kaido, it seems this fight today won't happen!"
Kaido's expression was uncertain, and finally, he slammed his kanabo onto the deck. "Damn it! Everyone—" He suddenly pulled out his phone and opened Honor of Kings. "Get in the game! If I don't reach Super King, I won't be called Kaido of Beasts!"
Just like that, the war, which was originally going to turn the sea red with blood, strangely turned into an unprecedented large-scale Honor of Kings ranking competition on the sea.
The ships of both sides wisely pulled back to a safe distance, and the Pirates formed teams of three or five to play together.
Even the Revolutionary Army joined the battle, and the sea echoed with shouts of "Push the tower!" "Kill the dragon!" and "Defend!" rising and falling.
...
In the following few days,
With the launch of the Honor of Kings ranked match system, the entire Pirate world went crazy for it.
From the most remote taverns in the East Blue to the most prosperous entertainment islands in the New World, Pirates and Marines holding their phones and intensely battling could be seen everywhere.
Area 13 of the Sabaody Archipelago, the live streaming plaza surrounded by bubble trees, was packed with people.
A giant projection screen, twenty meters high, was suspended in mid-air, clearly projecting the game screen to the thousands of spectators present.
On both sides of the screen were real-time comment walls, with colorful messages scrolling like a waterfall.
"Watch closely, everyone! This team fight will determine the outcome!"
The hoarse voice of the streamer 'I Red Hair Don't Pick My Feet' boomed through the plaza's sound system.
He had specially cosplayed as Red-Haired Shanks today. His empty left sleeve fluttered in the wind, but his right hand operated the phone so fast that it left afterimages.
On the screen, the Red Hair Li Bai skin he controlled was crouching in the river bush.
This limited skin, worth three hundred thousand Berry, perfectly recreated the Four Emperors' Haki: the wine pot had become the famous sword "Gryphon," the skill effects were all dark red sword energy, and even the recall animation was the classic cold sheathing posture.
"Watch the position of the enemy Dian Wei!"
The streamer, Red Hair Don't Pick My Feet, suddenly lowered his voice. "He thinks he's stealing the dragon, but he's actually entered my kill range!" Then he suddenly raised his voice: "First skill 'Western Sword Thrust' followed by flash! Second skill 'Haki Circle' to dodge control! Ultimate skill 'Famous Sword Secret' for the direct kill!"
On the screen, Li Bai turned into a red afterimage, his sword light like a rainbow.
As the system prompt "Five Kills" sounded, the entire plaza erupted in deafening cheers!
The seagulls perched on the bubble trees were startled and scattered, flying away.
"Just! Ask! Who! Else!" The streamer heavily slapped the table with every word he shouted, splashing the cola on the table. "Did you see that, everyone! This is the streamer's classic move! Follow me so you don't get lost, next game I'll show you Kaido peeing... ah, no... the raging skin!"
The comments went completely wild:
[6666666](T/N: I think you guys are immune enough to know this meaning)
[This move is worth a Four Emperors title!]
[Does the streamer need an accessory? One that can shout 666]
[The Four Emperors Kaido skin is worth one million Berry! Is the streamer that rich?!]
[Hahaha, I love watching Kaido rage, streamer hurry up and start!]
[...]
Suddenly, a super comment with gold effects crossed the screen: [User "Benn Beckman It Really Isn't Me" tipped 100 rockets: Streamer, do you dare to solo? If you lose, live stream in women's clothing!]
A wave of jeers immediately erupted at the scene.
The streamer grinned, showing a rogue expression identical to Red Hair's. "Oh my, isn't this the top big brother in our district? Come on! If you lose, don't run! But..." He suddenly lowered his voice, "If the real Red Hair comes to watch my live stream, I'll immediately wash my hair upside down in women's clothing!"
This sentence caused even bigger laughter.
On the New World Sea, Red-Haired Shanks, who was watching the live stream, suddenly choked on his drink. "Cough cough... Beckman, how are Newgate and Kaido doing? Did they fight?"
Benn Beckman next to him sighed helplessly. "Captain, you should see for yourself. They fought, but not completely..."
"???"
When Red Hair saw the video of Kaido's Beast Pirates VS Whitebeard Pirates that someone posted, he fell completely silent...
...
Marine Headquarters, the training ground in the afternoon was scorching hot from the sun.
The Marine soldiers who should have been doing physical training were gathered in twos and threes under the shade of trees, secretly holding their phones.
"Hurry, hurry! Mid lane team fight!" A major wearing round glasses whispered, his Marine cape casually placed under his butt.
