“Welcome to the finals!”
“The winner of this beast-fighting tournament will receive the grand prize—two hundred million jenny!”
“Next, let us welcome the highly anticipated finalist—the Beast King, Ah Hu!”
An underground beast-fighting arena in Yorknew.
The afro-haired host looked excited as he waved toward the left tunnel entrance, while a spotlight shone upon it.
Under the gaze of hundreds of spectators, a tiger’s paw stepped out first, followed immediately by its entire body.
The owner of that paw was none other than the Beast King, Ah Hu, a fierce saber-toothed tiger weighing several hundred pounds.
It was covered in mottled fur and possessed explosive muscles, and that pair of long, sharp fangs made one’s heart run cold.
“Roar!” The saber-toothed tiger let out a fierce roar.
The sound made many people turn pale, yet they remained incredibly excited; the more they feared, the more captivated they became, cheering wildly.
People who came to the underground arena were simply chasing the thrill of wildness, bloodshed, and the release of their primal instincts.
The Beast King, Ah Hu, had been the Champion of the Yorknew underground arena for three consecutive years and remained undefeated to this day…
They couldn’t wait to see the opponent killed by the Beast King in a cruel and bloody manner!
“Next, please welcome the other finalist! The lucky dark horse of this tournament! The little reindeer—Chopper!”
The spotlight hit the right tunnel entrance, illuminating a petite figure.
The audience looked on, only to see it was about one meter tall, wearing an X-shaped hat with a pair of antlers extending from the sides.
It had a cute smile on its face and was holding…
a piece of cotton candy?
“Contestant Chopper is actually still eating cotton candy! Is it not afraid at all?!” the host shouted in surprise.
“This is truly rare; not many creatures can remain calm in front of Ah Hu!”
On one side was a large, bloody, and ferocious saber-toothed tiger; on the other, a petite and cute-faced reindeer…
Anyone could tell at a glance which side would win!
Almost no one thought Chopper could win, except…
for Lynn in the stands.
Lynn stood with his arms crossed, his gaze calm and unruffled.
Chopper was his card pet, and he knew best how terrifyingly strong this little guy was.
In the Pirate King world, it was known for “fighting the fiercest battles with the lowest bounty.”
In the eyes of others, Chopper was just a lucky little reindeer whose opponents always underperformed, allowing it to “luckily” defeat them.
However, this was because Lynn wanted to make a killing using the exaggerated odds, so he had Chopper pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger.
Today was the final, so there was no need to hide anymore.
“There are really a lot of people today,” Chopper muttered, licking a piece of cotton candy, then trotted toward the center of the arena with its little hooves.
Better end this quickly…
Lynn said he would buy it limited-edition cotton candy to eat tonight~ Chopper subconsciously licked its lips.
In the circular arena, the Beast King saber-toothed tiger and the little reindeer Chopper were less than a dozen meters apart.
Such a close distance further highlighted the size difference between the two…
like a mountain and a rock.
Some audience members had already started to half-cover their eyes, both afraid to see the cute little Chopper bitten to death and excitedly eager to witness that brutal scene.
“The match—begins!”
“Roar!!” As soon as the match started, the saber-toothed tiger roared impatiently and charged forward, carrying a thick, fishy wind, rushing straight at Chopper like a heavy truck.
Its bloodthirsty, cold beastly pupils were locked onto Chopper, while its giant mouth opened, intending to swallow the latter in one go.
Was the battle going to end in the very first exchange?!
The crowd watched this scene excitedly, but the next moment, the unexpected happened.
“Don’t underestimate me!” Chopper whispered.
Immediately after, its body rapidly transformed, growing larger and taller, shifting into its burly heavy point form.
It swung its muscular right arm, striking a pose just like Whitebeard’s, and the force landed fiercely on the saber-toothed tiger with the punch.
Bang!!
In an instant, the saber-toothed tiger was sent flying backward.
Its massive body slammed into the stone wall at the edge with a bang, forcibly blasting out a large crater and embedding itself firmly inside.
The rumbling sound echoed throughout the arena.
Silence.
Everyone stared at everything in a daze, silently digesting the shock.
The Beast King, Ah Hu…
defeated?
Less than three seconds into the match, this terrifying Hunter had been knocked flying by a reindeer countless times smaller than it.
After a long while, the host was the first to react, shouting in surprise: “This! The result is beyond everyone’s expectations!”
“Contestant Chopper can actually transform! It knocked down the Beast King, Ah Hu, with just one punch. Was it hiding its strength all along?!”
“The Champion of this beast-fighting tournament has emerged! It is none other than contestant Chopper. Let us congratulate it!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience erupted into intense cheers.
The audience members who had just been cheering for the saber-toothed tiger were now Chopper’s fans, roaring and reveling.
All they wanted was a cruel battle; they didn’t care who won or lost!
Of course, not everyone was happy.
Some people who had confidently bet their entire fortune on the Beast King now looked pale, slumping in their chairs as if their spines had been ripped out.
This is impossible, right?
How could a little reindeer beat a saber-toothed tiger!
The odds for Chopper in the final were as high as ten to one.
Lynn had bet seven million jenny, which transformed into seventy million jenny.
He had made a fortune just from the betting pool.
Afterward, led by the staff, Lynn arrived at the boss’s office, ready to collect the two hundred million jenny grand prize.
In the luxurious office, the boss, Kenny, sat on the sofa, with ten bodyguards in uniform suits standing on both sides of the room.
On the coffee table sat two open suitcases, filled with jenny!
Kenny held a cigar between his fingers, slowly exhaling a cloud of thick smoke.
His expression as he looked at Lynn carried a hint of a smile: “Congratulations on becoming the Champion. It seems you have a real knack for raising pets~”
“How about it? Name your price. I’m very interested in this little pet of yours.”
Lynn calmly refused: “Chopper is not for sale.”
“Is that so? My apologies for being forward.” Kenny, looking slightly regretful, quickly changed the subject and pointed to the suitcases on the coffee table.
“The grand prize is two hundred million jenny. I, Kenny, operate with integrity… but my cash flow has been tight lately. Here is one hundred million; take it first. Come back at this time in three days, and I will have the other one hundred million ready.”
Lynn nodded slightly.
This arrangement was acceptable to him.
He took the two suitcases and turned to leave with Chopper.
As he turned, he gave Kenny a deep look.
This look made Kenny very uncomfortable, as if his inner thoughts had been completely Detected…
If all went as planned, someone would come to deal with Lynn in three days and take Chopper away.
That was also his boss, the true owner of the underground arena…
In fact, he was just a subordinate helping to manage it.
The boss was a powerhouse with extraordinary abilities who had always been looking for powerful creatures.
It was just…
that look from Lynn always made him feel uneasy.
Kenny hurriedly took another puff of his cigar, mocking himself for overthinking.
It was just an ordinary person and a strange reindeer, after all.
…Hunter is a niche book and can’t compare to popular genres…
