Short Summary
At the waiting room, Luffy was almost kicked out for starting a fight before the tournament but was defended by a trio of warriors called the Chinjao gang. Luffy thanked them but one of their members rejected his thanks too seriously and tries to attack luffy while being restrained by his team. One by one, famous warriors from different countries and organizations came to participate in the tournament, with Block A announced to go into a battle royale.

Luffy, after hearing that he will be fighting in block C proceeds in the armory to don some armor for the fight, but was told to remove some for being over the limit. Then, the famous beautiful pirate Cavendish shows up and after explaining to Luffy (who he thought was Lucy) the rules of entertainment in the colleseum announces his intent to kill the eleven supernovs for stealing his spotlight two years ago.

Then, the female gladiator Rebecca arrives and explains to Luffy the legend of Kyros the undefeated who was never seen in battle for 20 years. The announcer then calls that block A champion has been decided who was a large man with a paper bag over his head which he then removed showing to the entire colleseum the Blackbeard Pirates' first fleet captain, Jesus Burgess, standing over the broken bodies of his opponents.
