Chapter 31 Dressrosa!
Dressrosa, the famous "love and passion" country in the new world.
Dressrosa is located in the middle of the New World and is a tropical island.
It is now mid-April, and the daytime temperature in Dressrosa is as high as 38°C. The climate here is different from the unpredictable climate in other places in the New World. The climate here is stable and is a standard tropical monsoon climate.
Long summer without winter, abundant rain, three crops of food, and four seasons of vegetables.
The huge temperature difference between day and night makes the fruit of Dressrosa a must in the New World, and is exported to other islands in the New World.
Sufficient material conditions and a good foreign trade system allow the people of Dressrosa to live a prosperous life.
On such a basis, Dressrosa also gave birth to a prosperous culture. When people are rich, citizens have more money to spend on places other than food and housing.
Therefore, Dressrosa's catering, clothing and other industries flourished unprecedentedly, and even gave birth to a large sales treasury like the Arena. Also because of enough affluence, the girls here don't have to rely on men to survive. The self-confidence brought by wealth allows girls to choose the man they like.
The "love" in the country of "love and passion" comes from the unrestrained girls here in Dressrosa, and the passion comes from the blood-spitting "arena".
"Dressrosa is a member of the World Government."
"After the Don Quixote family abandoned their citizens and entered the holy land of Marinchoa, the Riku family is the new royal family here."
"The current king of Riku—Liku Dold III has been in power for more than ten years, and he has done a very good job."
"Dressrosa is probably the only one who still lives like this when the people pay the heavenly money to support the scum of the Holy Land."
Garp's warship docked at the port on the east coast of Dressrosa, and a long wooden ladder was lowered from the ship. Garp was wearing a floral shirt, a pair of big black pants, and drooping slippers, while walking down the wooden ladder. Walking off the boat, he introduced the basic situation of Dressrosa to Yuanyi and Aokiji behind him.
Compared with the officers and soldiers wearing naval uniforms behind Garp, the leading lieutenant general Garp didn't seem to be here on a mission at all, but instead looked like he was on vacation.
Yuanyi and Aokiji have also changed their attire. It's so hot that they can't wear long sleeves. Yuanyi didn't have too many clothes, so he bought a short-sleeved sailor uniform with "雑服" written on the back from other sailors.
He wanted Niu Qingzhi's clothes, but Qingzhi's clothes were too big
As for Aokiji, he himself has a summer uniform.
"Let's find the branch first and see if they have any latest news about Roger."
"Bogart, arrange some people to guard the various ports, pay close attention to the passing ships, and pay attention to the pirate ships."
"Oh, by the way, Kuzan, Yuanyi, you two don't need to follow me."
"It's the first time I've come to Dressrosa, so let's have fun, hey, Kuzan, bring a phone bug, I'll call you if something happens."
As Garp said, he took out a phone bug from his pocket and threw it to Aokiji behind him. The rest of the sailors behind Garp showed envy when they heard the words, but they didn't feel dissatisfied with the "special treatment" of Aokiji and Enichi.
Aokiji himself came to study on Garp's ship, and he is not qualified to command the officers and soldiers on Garp's ship. He is more of a watcher, and occasionally helps out when he encounters a pirate. But in essence, Aokiji is not a subordinate of Garp. At best, he is just a fan boy who admires Karp.
As for Ji Guo Yuan Yi, he is not even a navy now.
"Lieutenant General Garp, is this not too good?" Aokiji took the phone bug and smiled a little embarrassedly.
He was afraid of bad influence.
"Whispering."
"It's not your turn to tell me what to do."
Garp buttoned his booger and said casually. Hearing the words, Qingzhi quickly put the phone bug into his arms, patted Yuanyi on the back, and said happily: "Let's go, it's rare to be able to have a holiday again."
Enichi and Aokiji separated from Garp after entering the town of Dressrosa. Garp’s destination was the branch, but Aokiji and Enichi had no destination. Where to get together.
"Well, our clothes are too conspicuous, let's change first."
After walking on the street for a while, Aokiji suddenly found that he and Yuanyi always attracted the attention of passers-by, looked down at his attire, Aokiji immediately took Yuanyi to a clothing store.
When the two came out again, the navy uniforms had already been changed. Qingzhi's upper body was changed into a green shirt, which was only buttoned three or four times in the belly, and his chest was exposed. His lower body was wearing a pair of big red pants, and the military boots on his feet were also replaced with slippers.
Ji Guoyuan, who was beside him, dressed more conservatively. He changed into a white round-neck T-shirt, a pair of large zebra-print pants, and flip-flops instead of military boots.
The clothes and shoes that the two had exchanged turned into two bags, which were held by the two of them.
Although they changed their outfits, Yuanyi and Qingzhi still attracted the attention of passers-by from time to time when they were walking on the street.
It's not because the two of them have a "dominant" spirit.
It's really that the color matching of Aokiji's clothes is too eye-catching.
Red and green match shit.
God knows why this idiot, Aokiji, would match it like this.
However, Aokiji didn't feel it at all, and he thought it was because Yuan Yi was holding a knife with a cold face.
Dressrosa is rich in products and has an extremely prosperous food culture, so Aokiji and Enichi have only walked a short distance, and their hands are already full of snacks, drinks and drinks.
"Hey, Kuzan, go over there and have a look."
"Looks like an arena."
Walking and eating all the way, after a long time, the two entered the center of the town. An oval-shaped building appeared in Ji Guoyuan's sight.
This is the most famous arena in Dressrosa. The outer walls of the arena are made of limestone and bluestone.
The arena is about 500 meters long, 350 meters wide, and nearly 50 meters high. There are countless arches on the entire oval building, and people come and go, which is extremely lively.
The appearance of this bidding field is similar to that of the Roman Colosseum in Yuan Yi's memory, but the area is much larger.
Dressrosa's ability to support this kind of treasury shows the country's economic strength.
"Oh! Is that the Dressrosa Arena?"
"I've been hearing from Lieutenant General Karp, but I haven't seen it before."
"Go and see."
The young Aokiji is also a person who likes to be lively. At this time, he also saw the oval building pointed by Yuan Yi, and immediately agreed to take the lead and walked towards the arena.
After buying the tickets, Aokiji and Yuanyi entered the arena. As soon as they entered the arena, they were stunned by the sight in front of them. Inside the oval arena are stepped stands, enough to hold tens of thousands of people.
In the center is a ring, where two "warriors" are fighting. Around the ring, there is a ring-shaped inland river. From time to time, there are ferocious bettas, either showing their heads or showing their terrifying dorsal fins.
With the ups and downs of the battle in the arena, the deafening cheers crazily stimulated the eardrums of Yuanyi and Aokiji.
"Oh~"
"It's really spectacular!"
It was the first time Aokiji had seen such a scene, and he couldn't help but exclaimed, he felt his blood welling up, and his eyes were full of excitement.
The cheers that resounded through the sky made Yuanyi's blood boil, let alone a young man like Aokiji.
As soon as the two of them found a place to sit down, the battle on the field came to an end. A soldier in heavy armor was exhausted and was knocked to the ground by his opponent, unable to get up for a long time.
The victorious warrior raised his arms and shouted, waving his spear.
The defeated fighters were dragged off the ring, and the victorious fighters also left the ring after receiving applause and cheers. At this time, the high-pitched voice of the host came out through the loudspeaker
"Next, it's the battle you've all been waiting for!"
"We invite Dressrosa, the strongest sword fighter, Cyrus who has won 440 games in a row."
"His opponent! It is Rachel Mullan who is known as the berserk sea bear and has won 81 battles!"
"Sarcasm! Both parties please come on stage!!!"
As the host's voice fell, the cheers in the arena increased several dimensions. Everyone looked at the passage on the side of the ring in unison, and shouted the name of "Cyrus" in unison.
"Cyrus!"
"Cyrus!"
