Chapter 17

Ren was taking about famous tournament in Sumo wrestling in Wano. It is biggest and longest yearly tournament held for whole month. Ryuma was surprised that Ren doesn't know anything about it. Even a 3 year old kid in whole Wano will tell about it.

All prominent families, owners will own a wrestler who will be frontman to their business. Ren was surprised as it resemble Earth's tournaments. He was shocked when he heard about Hyogoro of the flower was champion and Ashura Doji was runner up for last year.

Ryuma seem to be optimistic and intelligent that he asked Ren to be in the last day match. He will tell all the rules and moves to Ren. His number is 128th and last number. The tournament is not making any blocks to increase their profit on each match. They placed a rule that one need to place bets for every match but were smart enough to separate Hyogoro and Ashura meeting till final.

When the first match started, Ryuma explained the rules and simple moves Ren can use. No punching, kicking, grabbing the hair or pressing the neck is allowed. He told him that he can slap or thrust his opponent with palm. " If you are top 16, then my life will be set ", Ryuma said.

" What if I became a champion? ", Ren asked. " You can't be joking.... Did you learn Ryuo then ", Ryuma was feeling excited. " No ", Ren replied . " Then forget it and don't you dare to use magic ", Ryuma warned him because it's forbidden to use devil fruit here in the tournament. Ren can tell that top 16 are protecting in haki. He thought he can learn from any of them.

It was last day and last match of the tournament. It was Ren's turn. Ryuma will act as his manager and owner in the match. He took mawashi, sumo attire for competition or training.

Ren felt uncomfortable by many eyes seeing him on the ring especially women. Because many women missed Oden and he became a substitute. Any women will get wet seeing his body. He is 3m height with smooth baby skin which made women jealous. His perfect toned muscles increased his championship with broad ċhėst and shoulders.

They are many audience even when it was last match of the first round because of Ren's opponent, Dojima Genjuro. His father, Dojima Gin was once champion before any Yakuza or criminals were allowed to participate.

Today is his debut. Many placed bet on Genjuro rather than nobody like Ren. But Ryuma took everything he had and placed a bet on Ren. He measured Genjuro strength which is far less than Ren.

Genjuro is 18 year with 6m height. He is a typical Sumo with square face, small eyes, nose and round mouth. In comparison, Ren looked like a dwarf. Genjuro can break a boulder with his strength and far stronger than his father at his age. So, he is arrogant. He scoff seeing Ren, " Admit defeat before you die ", he warned him. Ren taunted him showing his middle finger. Surprisingly, many in Wano know what it means.

Genjuro got angry because no one in his life insult him. They got into position, " START ". " Die ", Genjuro made the first move. He thrashed his open hand at Ren's face with force that can crush a giant baboon. Ren took his head on without blocking. Genjuro felt like he hit a mountain when he is not moving at all. " Now it's my turn ", Ren said and made the same move at his belly without holding back. Genjuro was sent flying out of the ring and was knocked out. There was no sound in the stadium till Ryuma shouted. Many liked this stunning dark house of the tournament.

" Your son got eliminated, Gin ", Hyogoro smiled at Domination Gin. He looked like Genjuro with beard and more muscles. " I will defeat you this time, Hyogoro ", Gin walked away.

Ryuma got his and Ren's money. They went into a famous inn to eat and slept there. Ryuma warned Ren to learn many techniques as possible because brute force cannot get him to top. Ren agreed to it and processed all the matches that he saw today. He was able to do some of them which were enough for next two matches.

Like Ryuma said, he went to see every fight to absorb all the moves if possible. Many took his autograph in which most were women. Some bold ones invited him to spend a night who are single women. Ren simply smiled and cursing inwardly, ' Hey, women. I'm only 11 '.

These bees didn't distract him from learning. He took his 2nd opponent with ease. He is not as strong as Genjuro. But the 3rd gave him some struggle because he know haki. He is middle aged sumo with large eyes, small nose. He has black hair and same height as Ren. Ryuma informed that he was top 4 last year. But trusted him so much that he placed everything on Ren. He doesn't know who will win.

Ren thrusted him at his shoulder. He coated his body with haki and stopped at the end of the ring. He got near Ren and grabbed his mawashi. He lifted him up to throw him out. Ren didn't give him a chance by pushing his hand and grabbing his mawashi. They were both pushing each other. Ren has upper hand but he coated his legs with haki. By bending, Ren simply lifted him and thrown him outside. Ryuma was feeling happy because he will get more rich as Ren position till to 4 is guaranteed.
