Chapter 74 - 74: End of event.

As Edam looked at them with amusement, he waved his right hand as two Heaven's pearl slowly floated to his side and began to merge with each other forming one single pearl and with another movement of the hand, it firmly pinned down the two piled up turtles on the ground.

The battlefield being a total mess now and with the majority of the top participants literally crawling on the ground while most average participants were unable to continue the fight... This event had reach an evident end now...

He then slowly made his way to everyone of them and started to press on their "weak points" to gain some points.

...Poor Zaz was the first one to lose his points.

"Stop....!" Zaz felt like crying as he spout out bullsh*its to make him stop in vain...

"No can do my friend..." Edam laughed and pressed on the three buŧŧons without remorse or guilt, not that he should have any to begin with though.

"You're not my buddy anymore..." Zaz complained.

"Hey don't say that, I will let you borrow Super Dragon Wish's new volume alright ?"

"Really ?" Zaz narrowed his eyes and tried to scrutinize his soul... not that he could but... whatever...

"Of course..." With that said he took the points and freed him.

Zaz having no other choice could only grit his teeth.

Next was Kuina who struggled crazily for a moment before saying. "Wait !"

"Hmm ?" Edam stopped his hand at one inch of the small buŧŧons.

"I will owe you a favor alright ? Whatever you want..." She tried to negotiate with him with a half hearted smile but...

"Kuina..." Edam looked at her deeply and called her name out.

"Yes ?" With a bit of hope she lifted her head up but...

"Listen, don't ever say this line to any other guy alright ? It's dangerous..." He patted her head.

"..."

And without mercy he clicked on the buŧŧons.

Lastly came the two pinned turtles who were now in their humanoids form and arguing.

"It's all your fault, if you weren't caught up this wouldn't have happened... tch..."

"If you're so good why didn't you flee idiot !" Raffe retorted disdainfully.

"F*ck you ! Father never taught me how to flee like a coward !" Leo shouted back and breath in deeply before adding. "And goddammit Raffe lose some weights would you !"

"F*ck you...!"

Then Edam buŧŧ in and said. "Gosh... You two are like dog and cat even though you are turtles haha !"

Raffe then spoke and said. "F*ck it I won't beg anyone !"

"Good ! That's the spirit Raffe, You would have greatly disappointed me otherwise." Edam said before plucking his due points freeing him as he got up relieving Leo greatly.

Then last but not least Leo.

"Wai-... wait Edam what do you want ? Tell me and I will get it for you alright ?" Leo too tried to convince him.

"Pfff why are you talking like a third rate vilain ? But...hmm ... I'm afraid that you can't give me what I want, so~..." His evil hand reach out to click but...

"Wait, wait, wait what about... what about a V.I.P ticket to the Shoneny Jumpy Comics Expo, there is only a thousand of tickets !" Leo shouted with all his soul and heart with a despairing heart, hell he even had some tears in his eyes when he said this line.

He won the ticket in a lottery a week ago and as he wasn't a great reader of comics and that the ticket was damn rare, able to reach a hundred of thousand of berry at the very least, he actually planned to sell it to Donny, Mickey Zaz or Edam who were huge fans of this Comics Expo.

Well he had actually already thought to used the ticket as a last resorted to escaped this evil monkey clutches... but still what a pity... so much money... Sigh...

This line was so powerfull that Zaz stopped in place and looked at Leo with wide open eyes as if a holy treasure was placed in front of his eyes.

"I didn't expect this but unfortunately for you I have the same ticket back in my cave."

"..."

The evil monkey then ruthlessly ripped him off of his points.

"Noooo...!" Leo released a heartbreaking cry.

...

*A few moments later*

All of them wore depressed looks on their faces, every one of them had for objective to keep their points till the end but...

"Well you only have yourselves to blame you know... Who told you to gang up against me ? Idiots..." Edam said and shrugged his shoulders as he released Leo while the remaining pearl flew at him and merged with him...

Everyone one of them felt like crying, but as he said they only had themselves to blame. But it was the game right ? When someone get the crown, everyone launched themselves at him, beat him up and then only will the competition restart right ? But alas... this common sense doesn't work with "him".

...

Anyway, when he finished "plucking" all his points, Edam glanced at the surrounding and saw a small boulder on which he leisurely and breath out. "Phew... It was exhausting..." he smiled. Who know if it was sarcasm or not...

"You're not going to eliminated the others ?" Leo asked clearly wanting Edam to chase the remaining participants, at least they wouldn't be the only ones to suffer...

The last explosing sound to end the event didn't sounded out implying that not every participants were taken out.

"Hmm... I already got the crown so I guess I will stop at that..." Edam replied plainly lying down on the boulder to wait for the end of the event.

"Instead of lying down, shouldn't you go take all those peoples points ?" Kuina asked as she looked at every participants that were unable to continue after Edam's [Sky Fall].

"Ah what a bother, I don't want to..." He said and closed his eyes to sleep seemingly with the crown still on his head.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"You lazy monkey..." They uttured softly but it of course didn't escaped Edam's keen ears.

"...Tch if it was me I would have gone..." Leo said sheepishly.

"I know right ? Me too..." Zaz said too taunting him.

"Sigh be quiet, you four aren't even in the competition anymore so what's the problem ?" He replied leisurely without a care.

The others could only greet their teeths in angers.

As for him, well he wasn't really wrong though, getting hold of the crown was literally winning the entire event, beating the others were just bonuses to get points so...

...

Anyway...

And...

Boom ! The sound of the end exploded out in the sky and it was the end !

From the flying surveillances Den Den Mushi devices a voice came out.

"FIVE HOURS ELAPSED AND THE CROWN WAS TAKEN !" This message repeated itself for a couple of times before ending.

It was time to return, injured were brought back to their ships, the few active participants returned with pride and losers... well losers could only swallow their bitterness... no matter how strong they were...

After having embarked on the ships, they returned back.
