Chapter 39: Chapter 37: Battle of Garp! The Adventurer's First Death!
Dungeon, 1st Floor, Northern Territory.
"Hehe, I finally met an interesting opponent"
At this time in the northern region only 250 meters away from the gate of Atlantis City. Garp had met a monster who was there. The monster that Garp is currently encountering is a Goblin carrying a short sword. Although the appearance of the Goblin is very different in size from Garp, through his Observation of Haki, Garp can feel that the power possessed by the Goblin is stronger than him.
Especially when Garp looked at the top of the Goblin's head, it was noted that the Goblin in front of him currently had level 2. This means that the strength of this Goblin is at least equivalent to level 4 or level 5 at night today.
"Roar!..."
The goblin immediately ran at full speed toward Garp. The speed possessed by this Goblin although it can still be captured by his Observation Haki, the body response speed possessed by Garp today is different from that of the outside world. His strength is almost equivalent to that of a normal person.
Instantly the Goblin arrived in front of Garp and jumped at high speed toward him while slashing his little sword. Garp immediately avoided the attack. Although Garp was able to dodge the attack well, the Goblin immediately twisted his body in the air while slashing his sword toward Garp.
"Tekai!"
Garp knew that he couldn't avoid the attack. Garp immediately uses his Rokushiki ability which uses the acceleration of blood flow to increase muscle power to strengthen the defenses possessed by his body. Garp has also used his Haki Persenjataan on the defenses carried out by him at this time.
*Swoosh!*
"Agh!"
Although Garp's defenses have increased with Rokushiki's abilities and his Haki Armaments. The opponent currently being fought by him is a level 2 Goblin and this battle is fought at night. The current status possessed by Goblins can be said to be equivalent to those monsters who are at level 5. This means that there is a very far gap in status between the two.
The Goblin's sword easily slashed the chest of Garp where blood immediately came out of the clothes and immediately soiled the clothes used by him. Although Garp is currently injured, his pain resistance is already at a very high level. The injuries caused by the Goblin do not influence his fighting power.
Garp immediately clenched his fists than with his hands coated by the Armament Haki, Garp immediately attacked the Goblin who was still hovering in front of him with all his strength "Accept the iron fist of this old man, Stupid Monster!" Garp shouted.
*Boom!*
The goblin who is the target of the attack has a quick body response. The attack possessed by Garp at this time also did not hurt him. Despite this, the Goblin when he saw Garp about to attack him, immediately raised both arms to defend against the attack released by Garp.
Instantly, the Goblin flew directly just a few meters away from the position from Garp at this time, and soon he instantly stabilized the balance of his body. Garp's attack did not bring any serious impact on him even the blood volume possessed him was almost untouched.
Garp saw all this and has also noticed it. Although Garp knows that the monster in front of him is impossible for him to fight using his current strength, Garp is a fool with a battle maniac. Another reason is that Garp knew knowing this place he would never legally die in this world. As long as he dies, Garp will soon be resurrected. This is what caused Garp to be very happy in this place and assumed this was heaven for him.
"Hahaha, you are strong" Garp is not a person who is stingy about praise. Finding a strong opponent, Garp will not hesitate to praise him. Garp then immediately removed his Navy coat and stared fiercely at the Goblin in front of him who was currently looking at him also with a murderous look.
"Although you are very strong and it may be difficult for me to beat you... At least, I will make it difficult for you to win against me! Let's move forward here! Stupid monster!" Garp shouted excitedly.
"Roar!..."
The goblin felt provoked by the words from Garp. Immediately ran towards Garp to attack him. The speed shown by the Goblin is currently faster than before and as soon as he reaches Garp's front, the Goblin immediately attacks him like the previous attack.
"Do you think an attack like before can ride you?! Fuck! Do you look down on me!!!" Garp shouted with a face full of anger.
Garp, who managed to avoid the attack released by the Goblin, immediately attacked the Goblin with his full strength, and the power of this attack was released by Garp using the power of the Conqueror's Haki.
"Meteorite Iron Fist!"
*Boom!*
The blow that Garp gave before attacking the Goblin had already made an impact. The impact given by this punch directly caused the Goblin who was Garp's opponent to scream in pain his blood volume was reduced a little soon the Goblin flew directly backward at a distance of 4 meters from his current position.
Although his breathing was already very heavy due to the use of some abilities possessed by him, Garp did not show low fighting will. Getting this golden opportunity when the Goblin was not in a good state, Garp immediately ran towards the Goblin and then hit him severely using the head of his hand covered by Haki Persenjataan.
"Roar!..."
A roar full of pain sounded from the Goblin.
Simultaneously, the use of the Haki Persenjataan ability is also the last remnant of the stamina possessed by Garp at this time. Garp knew that he was currently running out of steam and was unlikely to use any other abilities. Without thinking, Garp simply used his remaining physical strength at this time and released a punch to the Goblin who was currently slumped in front of him.
The blood volume of the Goblin continues to decrease even if it is only a little bit.
But...
This momentum built by Garp was quickly directly destroyed by the Goblin. The painful feeling received by him from the attack released by Garp before made the Goblin very angry and his eyes at this time were full of extremely strong killing intent towards Garp.
Without thinking about the pain given by Garp, the Goblin immediately raised his sword and then attacked Garp who was in front of him at this time.
Garp at this time had run out of energy and it was difficult for him to avoid the attack. There are only two options available on Garp at the moment. The first option is to avoid such attacks. Garp knew the chances of him surviving the attack were very low and if Garp dodged the attack, he would have no chance of providing resistance to his current opponent. While the second option is to accept the attack and then keep attacking the Goblin until he dies.
Garp knew that in this battle, he was the loser. Nonetheless, Garp didn't want this battle to be embarrassing battle for him.
Therefore...
*Swoosh!*
Garp did not avoid the attack released by the Goblin and accepted it. Garp's front body was directly cut down by the Goblin and at this time a lot of blood came out of Garp's clothes. His clothes which were previously filled with blood instantly increased a lot.
Without thinking about the pain received by him, Garp continued to continue to hit the Goblin in front of him.
The blood volume that the Goblin had also slowly began to decrease and at this time it had begun to touch 1/8 of his blood.
The pain caused by the attack from Garp caused the anger of Goblin even more. The goblin quickly rebelled and immediately broke away from Garp.
"Oops!"
The goblin with eyes full of killing intent immediately raised his sword and then began to attack Garp blindly. Garp, whose stamina and physical strength have been exhausted, can only defend against the attack released by the Goblin. Garp was no longer able to dodge the attack even though he could feel the trajectory of the attack through his Observation Haki.
The security of the Goblin who is the opponent of Garp has reached its maximum point. The goblin did not immediately kill Garp but tortured him slowly. The goblin sadistically slashed every part of the body that Garp currently has starting from his attack on Garp's leg which was by cutting off the part of the vein that was between his begins and thigh which caused Garp to currently no longer be able to use his legs.
Almost the entire body possessed by Garp at this time was full of slash wounds from the Goblin. The clothes used by him at this time were already dirty with blood as well as the sand around him.
"It seems that I will taste death soon. I wonder what it's like..."
Although by this time Garp had confronted his death. There is no feeling of fear or feeling of regret. Garp just showed an excited smile. Although in this dungeon the adventurers will not die legally. Death is still death. They will feel what it is like to die. This is also what Garp feels at the moment when every wound given by the Goblin who is his opponent gives him very deep pain.
Finally, after being satisfied with torturing Garp and seeing that there was no feeling of fear on Garp's face in the face of his death, the Goblin who was his opponent was furious. This anger made the Goblin immediately slash Garp's neck which made Garp's head and body separate.
At the end of his life in this fight, the thing that made Garp most happy was seeing the anger of his opponent's Goblin. Although Garp lost against him in terms of fights, in battle he was the winner.
The first death in the dungeon finally happened!
A large amount of blood came directly out of Garp's body. However, this did not last long because the body and head owned by Garp immediately disappeared from the location and will soon reappear in Atlantis City Park with the appearance before he went to the monster territory.
Guild.
"Hmm? Are you guys going to enter the dungeon soon?" Ars asked with interest looking at Sengoku and others who had now finished studying their status panel and were currently standing together.
Sengoku nodded, "We want to make observations"
"Observation, well? Aren't you guys in the mood to take on a mission? Although the current time has entered the evening, there are many missions available. Like missions to be servants, take care of babies, and the like" Ars said calmly, "But, well, if you guys want to take that mission. I guess, it's better to hide. It would be a shame, especially for you to take on such missions"
"I don't think it's a shame" Sengoku shook his head, "All missions are the same. No matter what the mission is as long as they can give us rewards, we will do it"
"Oh? Even though that mission was a mission to take care of a baby then your rivals found out?" Ars asked teasingly.
"Eh..." Sengoku instantly fell silent at this.
Sengoku immediately thought of himself taking the mission and was later discovered by Garp, Shiroige, Shiki, and also other veterans. Sengoku's face instantly blackened and immediately he shook his head.
Tsuru sighed at the attitude from Sengoku then looked at Ars, "Right now we're not going to take on a mission. We just want to go in to have a look and do some arrangements going forward."
"So that's it" Ars nodded and continued, "Oh, yes. I'm quite interested. Does the World Government now know about this place?"
"this is quite an interesting question," Aokiji said, "What caused you to ask such a question?"
"The Navy is a direct subordinate of the World Government. This place will later change the pattern of this world in the future for people who know it. You are the ones who will know about the impact of this place if it is exposed later. It should be your side reporting this to the World Government, right? Or..." Ars paused and advanced, "You guys have the plan to rebel?"
The atmosphere in the guild was immediately silent when he heard the words of Ars.
"Well, I think I'll assume that's an answer that agrees with you not answering my question" Ars shrugged his shoulders casually, "You don't have to worry about telling them this. I am Neutral and will not side with anyone. If you have the desire to do so, you must be smart about building a plan for the future. Likewise, who do you want to put here also you have to be good at covering this place from the side of the World Government. Well, but, considering the intelligence capabilities on the part of the World Government, it only took a while for them to find out this place. Well, if you intend to rebel against them. Increase your influence in dungeons as well as have high-level people and so on. The world today uses berries as currency and a medium of exchange for purchasing goods. However, if this place is immediately known by many people and many will become adventurers in this place. So, the currency will soon be replaced with the currency in the dungeon. As long as you have a great influence in the dungeon and have a large number of high-level adventurers, it is very easy to earn money in the dungeon. The higher the dungeon floor, the more difficult the mission will be to carry out. The more difficult the mission carried out, the greater the reward that will be given."
The previously tense feeling instantly turned into calm again. They are happy that Ars is neutral and will not side with anyone. It was their consideration before.
"Don't you have the desire to promote this place of yours?" Gion asked with interest.
This question from Gion immediately attracted the attention of all of them.
"No need" Ars waved his hand, "Although I didn't. This place will also be known by many parties soon. I don't need to make any moves to do it"
"You're pretty optimistic, aren't you?" Gion asked back as she raised her forehead.
"That's not just my sense of optimism, but a fact," Ars said, "After all, in the next few days. There will be a big man coming to this place and maybe his arrival will be the beginning of where this place is known to many parties"
"Big guy?" Tsuru narrowed her eyes.
"Arara, I wonder who the big guy is?"
Sengoku thought for a moment and instantly he got the answer and his gaze went straight to Ars, "The big guy you're referring to... Akagami?"
Ars just smiled and didn't directly answer the question, "Let time answer it. Well, I won't bother you guys anymore. You are free to enter the dungeon. The dungeon is open for 1x24 hours. However, administrative services are only open for a certain time. If you guys need anything and more, please come to ask. I'll probably only answer questions that are basic and general. If you want to get confidential information or the like, you must be prepared by bringing some money"
"We understand. Thank you very much"
Although Ars didn't answer him directly, the four of them were people who knew something. They knew that by this time Rayleigh was already here and was listed as an adventurer. The person who is related to Rayleigh and most likely to be invited to come here is only one person, namely one of the current Emperors of the Ocean Akagami No Shanks.
"Let's go"
Sengoku immediately took the lead into the dungeon together.
Seeing their departure, Ars immediately returned to his seat and began to relax there while reading his current book.
