[Sea Star Division contestant: Arlong has lost the ability to fight and has been eliminated!]
This emotionless notification sounded from every contestant's Justice Detector.
Most people did not care, since they did not know Arlong.
At most, they mocked the unlucky fellow in their hearts for becoming the first person to be eliminated.
At the same time, they were somewhat surprised that the first eliminated contestant had not come from worlds like Kabane, Demon Slayer, or Nuclear Weapons.
Instead, he was from Sea Star, the World Government's headquarters!
This made many proud Sea Star viewers watching before their screens look displeased.
They felt that Arlong had made Sea Star lose face before the other worlds.
Damn it, they had to find that bastard and teach him a harsh lesson!
Some hot-tempered people with a certain degree of strength or influence had even begun investigating Arlong's identity.
Those who knew Arlong, meanwhile, were utterly incredulous.
In Reincarnation Paradise.
Kuroobi, Hatchan, and Chew had originally planned to act together, but had been forced apart by the random teleportation. They now stood frozen in place, staring disbelievingly at the Justice Detectors in their hands.
How could Arlong have been eliminated, and so quickly at that?!
It was worth mentioning that Kuroobi and Chew had placed eighty-second and ninety-first in the previous Top 100 Tournament.
Thus, both wore vermilion Top 100 Coats.
But Arlong and Hatchan had not been so fortunate.
Hatchan was optimistic by nature and did not care much about it.
But whenever Arlong had seen their coats over the past few years, he had felt depressed. It had also become one of the driving forces behind his desperate efforts to improve his strength.
Yet who would have thought that this edition would not go smoothly either?
