Dragon Ball: Super Goten

Chapter 163 Luffy's Choice!

Picking up where we left off, Zoro and Sanji, facing a completely unfair referee, were attacked by the unsportsmanlike weapons of the Rock Monsters. Once again, the two rose up, finally ready to fight back…

Meanwhile, Foxy remained nonchalant, immediately issuing an order to his subordinates—"Give me a hamburger meal!" These words instantly caused an uproar among the Foxy Pirates, leaving the Straw Hat crew stunned...

Upon hearing Foxy's command, Hamburger, Biku Panda, and Piculus immediately pulled out their weapons: two iron rods, two swords, and a giant dinner plate. The referee, however, still found excuses to ignore them. At this moment, Nami secretly took action…

When Hamburger charged at Sanji with his iron rod, Sanji remained calm and rushed towards Hamburger, unleashing a flurry of kicks. He finished off Hamburger with a final kick that sent it flying toward the giant plate held by Biku Panda. Biku Panda, preoccupied with slapping the plate, shattered the Hamburger into a paper-thin shape.

Upon seeing this, Pikurus immediately spun around and swung his twin swords, charging towards Sanji. However, Zoro suddenly appeared in front of him, swiftly grabbing Pikurus's legs and using a move—"No-Sword Style - Tornado!"—to throw him towards Bikupanda, causing all of Pikurus's slashes to land on Bikupanda.

Severely injured, Biku Panda was about to collapse when Sanji quickly countered with a move—"Reverse Movement - Kick Techniques All Weak!"—kicking Biku Panda in the back, causing him to stagger but not fall. Seeing this, Zoro immediately rushed forward...

Picculus tried to stop him, but Sanji rushed to Picculus's side and kicked him away. However, the referee happened to be standing in Picculus's flying position, so he was knocked down and pinned to the ground by Picculus.

After finally peeking out to give Sanji a red card, Zoro discovered that both the red and yellow cards were gone. At that moment, Zoro had already reached Biku Panda, leaped high, grabbed his upper lip, and with a powerful slam, smashed his head into the opponent's goal, successfully scoring a point.

After the Straw Hat crew scored a point, Nami handed the whistle to the referee, who, eager for revenge, blew the whistle without thinking. Upon seeing this, the host immediately announced, "The match is over, the Straw Hat crew wins!"

The referee looked completely bewildered. Just then, Goten and Luffy appeared behind the referee and said simultaneously, "Now that the match is over, referee, your job is done. It's time to settle the score..." With that, the referee was subjected to a mixed doubles attack by Luffy and Goten. Seeing this, Robin thoughtfully used her ability to hand the two wooden sticks as weapons...

The moment the match ended, Sanji went to Nami and Robin to show off his outstanding performance, while Usopp excitedly praised Zoro. Chopper, seeing this, was also excited and danced with joy, finally able to return to the Straw Hat crew!

When it came to the discussion about choosing people, just as Luffy was about to speak, Nami said to wait a moment. Luffy was puzzled, and Nami began to explain, "Even if we get Chopper back this round, their boss might still cause trouble next round, so let's just take their boss instead."

As soon as Nami finished speaking, she was loudly condemned by the host—"What! The Straw Hat crew's navigator actually came up with such a vicious scheme! Not only have we never used such a method, but this wicked person actually managed to think of it. It's so despicable! This kind of behavior will be condemned. Let's all condemn this disgraceful act!"

The entire Foxy Pirates gave a thumbs-down at Nami's suggestion and shouted in unison, "Wicked woman! Wicked woman! Wicked woman! Wicked woman..." Nami, seeing this, was also scolded and hid in Robin's arms for comfort.

Even the Straw Hat crew scoffed at this, with Zoro even saying, "Nami, you were definitely in the wrong this time, apologize now." The next second, he was met with a powerful punch from Nami and knocked to the ground. Upon seeing this, the Foxy Pirates quickly and uniformly apologized to Nami.

Goten then spoke up, "Nami, don't you think about it? If that bastard comes over to our side, doesn't that mean we have to call him our buddy...?"

Upon hearing this, Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, and Usopp immediately waved their hands in unison, declaring, "No way, we don't need guys like that!" Foxy felt a massive internal blow; after all, being completely rejected was exactly what he found hardest to accept…

Finally, the time for the final decision arrived, and everyone was extremely nervous. Luffy took a deep breath and shouted, "Give Sherry back to the old man on stilts!"

Upon hearing this, Chopper instantly lost all his strength and abilities. Seeing this, Luffy loudly comforted Chopper, saying, "Don't worry, Chopper! We'll win next round, so please wait a little longer..." Realizing what was happening, Chopper immediately forced himself to say, "Then I'll wait a little longer..."

When the stilt-walking old man led Sherry to Luffy to express his gratitude, Luffy said nonchalantly, "Grandpa, now you can catch up with your clan, right..." The Straw Hat crew didn't say anything more after hearing this, since as long as they won the next round, Chopper could still come back.

So in the third round, while the Foxy Pirates were preparing in the training area, the Straw Hat Pirates were waiting. Luffy, however, picked up a long cucumber from somewhere and started eating it. At this moment, Gildida, a member of the Foxy Pirates, came up to Luffy and started sniffing him. The awkward situation only ended when Setsuna came over and dragged him away.

After the venue was prepared, the third round officially began. The third round was a roller skating competition. The Foxy Pirates' contestants were number 1, Porchi; number 2, defense expert, Yotsuba; number 3, fast leopard Gilgida; number 4, fishman Killarin; and number 5, Yukina.

On the Straw Hat crew's side, Luffy immediately expressed his excitement and said he wanted to be first. Goten immediately told him to wait a moment and then told Luffy to put on his roller skates and run a lap first. As a result, Luffy fell flat on his face as soon as he put on the roller skates, and the others decisively put him last.

While the Straw Hat crew was still discussing the order of events, Setsuna from Foxy's crew fell down because she couldn't roller skate, and was ridiculed by the entire Foxy Pirates. Even though Setsuna tried her best to stand up, she only received more mockery from the Foxy Pirates...

Seeing Setsuna struggling, Foxy immediately said, "You don't need to struggle anymore. Just come out at the end. Anyway, we'll win the match before you even step in..."

Upon hearing this, Goten immediately flew into a rage and roared at Foxy, "You idiot, who do you think you are! Don't worry about that nonsense, Setsuna! Just keep working hard, you'll definitely get your chance to shine. Until then, you better learn to roller skate, you hear me!"

Luffy loudly echoed, "Well said, Goten! Well then, before I make my appearance, I'm counting on you guys. You absolutely cannot lose!"

Goten, Usopp, Nami, and Robin immediately and firmly replied, "Of course!"
