"Hahaha! Come at me all at once! Let me see your guts!" Teach stood in the center of the arena, while the remaining contestants were cautiously on guard. The audience below held their breath, afraid of missing this exciting battle!

"While I do not know what methods you have employed, it is impossible for you to defeat our Giant with such mere methods! Let me, the greatest warrior of Sparta, take you on!"

A strangely dressed giant emerged, carrying a long spear, a round shield, a helmet made of fine iron, and a blue cloak.

Isn't this just a larger version of old Pantheon?

Teach stared at the giant before him with a strange expression. To be honest, the man before him was actually the number one warrior in the capital! He was one of the favorites to win this Grand Gladiatorial Tournament! His strength was extremely formidable, but his stamina was slightly lacking, and he was not good at prolonged battles!

To be precise, he was incredibly powerful in the early stages but suffered from kidney deficiency later on!

"Hahaha! Sparta's greatest warrior?" Out of respect for his enemy, Teach also drew his weapon!

"Hey! This is Grand Gladiatorial Tournament! Why is that guy carrying two pistols?!" "But there doesn't seem to be a rule against carrying firearms, does it?" "Don't panic, his pistols are so small, they can't possibly hurt our soldiers!"...

The audience on stage looked at the two fancy pistols in Teach's hands and thought to themselves, "This guy has no sense of honor!"

But

The group of soldiers standing opposite Teach did not feel wronged. Guns were not illegal weapons, and besides, a true soldier would never be afraid of guns!

"Take this!" the first Sparta warrior roared, his massive body unleashing incredible speed! He rapidly closed in on Teach, using his shield to protect his vitals, his spear poised at the shield's gap, ready to meet any attack!

"Bang bang bang bang!"

Without hesitation, Teach pulled the trigger, and the bullet, trailing a glint of light, hurtled towards the enemy's body! The instant the bullet struck the shield, everyone fell silent...

The bullets pierced the shield with ease, leaving crimson marks on the giant's body!

"Hahaha! Surely no one actually thinks these three pistols of mine are just for show, right?" Teach smugly tucked the guns back into his waistband. These three pistols were crafted by a famous craftsman at great expense; their power far exceeded that of ordinary pistols, and their penetrating power was extremely strong!

But since it was Teach's pistol, the bullets were just small pebbles to the Titan! Although the bullets pierced the shield, their power was greatly reduced. These bullets only caused minor, painless cuts to the Titan's skin!

"Ikoku Sovereignty!" As the number one warrior, the giant was naturally no pushover! He thrust his spear forward with his right hand, and a massive force struck Teach's body. The sheer power of that force was enough to instantly kill a giant Sea King!

"Oh!" The giants in the stands shouted excitedly. Ikoku Sovereignty's move had been famous for a long time, and every powerful warrior would learn it. Over time, Ikoku Sovereignty had become a standard for measuring warriors!

"Roar!" The remaining warriors on the platform picked up their weapons and pounded their shields, cheering for their comrades. After all, how could they, the giant warriors, put their faces if an outsider won the Champion?

But reality is often harsh!

"Ikoku Sovereignty? Hahaha! Let's see if your Ikoku Sovereignty is stronger, or my physical skills are stronger! Six Powers Secret Arts - Storm King Kick!" Teach charged up his right leg and then kicked forward with tremendous force and terrifying speed, creating a dark blue Rankyaku kick out of thin air! The power was so great that even the ground of the arena was thrown up with dust and stones!

Two powerful attacks collided, creating a massive explosion after a brief stalemate! To the disbelief of all the spectators present, their proud Ikoku Sovereignty had completely vanished, while Teach's seemingly casually executed Storm King Kick emerged from the smoke and dust, its color dimmed to almost nothingness—a testament to the utter defeat of their Ikoku Sovereignty!

One was the strongest blow from the so-called greatest warrior of Sparta, the other was a casual blow from an ugly outsider. It can now be said that the outcome is already decided!

But the pride of the giant warrior Pantheon would not allow him to retreat! He gripped his weapon tightly and charged at Teach once more!

Teach greatly admired this courage in facing a stronger opponent. He laughed heartily and resumed fighting the indomitable warrior...

Countless brave giant warriors below the stage shook their heads. They had to admit that this young warrior was very talented and strong. Even their Ikoku Sovereignty was no match for him. In other words, even these well-known warriors would probably suffer a crushing defeat if they faced Teach!

The host had been staring wide-eyed since the beginning of the show. Like most of the audience, he was speechless with shock, but the powerful blast of energy finally brought his brain back to work! He excitedly picked up the microphone and enthusiastically described the scene to the audience, his high-pitched voice filled with admiration for Teach!

Prince Loki, seated on his high throne, was perhaps the calmest of the giants. He calmly observed everything that was happening on the field. Although he was occasionally shocked by Teach's fierce attacks, he still felt that it was all quite reasonable!

But compared to Loki, his sister Meila was not so calm! The wild princess's eyes widened; Teach's strength had undoubtedly refreshed her understanding of outsiders! Despite his small stature, the power within him was terrifying!

Wrong!

Aila suddenly blushed. According to their previous agreement, if Teach won, she was supposed to have dinner with him! What if he suddenly became a beast... Oh dear! How scary!

Just as the beautiful princess was indulging in her fantasies, the battle on the field was nearing its end!

Unsurprisingly, only Teach was still standing on the field, with barely any dust on his clothes! On the other hand, the Titans were in a much worse state, all with bruises and swelling on their faces, clearly having been badly beaten!

"Ladies and gentlemen, as we have seen, the Champion of the first selection competition has been crowned! Shockingly, the winner is not one of our strong giant warriors, but an ugly, obese outsider! His strength is truly awe-inspiring!" Clearly, the host wasn't very good with words.

Teach:...

The entire arena was silent. Apart from the Blackbeard Pirates, no one cheered for Teach. Of course, except for...

"Wow, so handsome!"

Looking at their princess, who displayed absolutely no restraint, all the giants present fell into deep thought...
