Chapter 415 The First Coordination Competition Begins

July 15, 3rd year of the Alliance Calendar.

Today is the day for the first Coordination Tournament.

Because the number of participants is completely incomparable to the Pokémon Battle Tournament, the entire Coordination Tournament is also quite short, with only one week to complete.

The first three days are for the first round of exhibition matches.

The last four days are for the second round of battle matches.

The rest of the time is a free holiday for students. They can even go to the friendly store to buy [NERvGear-ProMax] produced by Kayaba Akihiko's Research Institute, and go to Aincrad to play the game "Pokemon" with the group of players from Blue Star.

However, the game channels accessed by the players on Blue Star are different from those on Pokémon Island. Under normal circumstances, there will be no intersection between them, and they will only meet in the Rank Tournament on the 100th floor.

In the week before the start of the competition.

The number of people who came to Alliance City should be counted in the millions. According to the monitoring records of the security department, it is conservatively estimated that 6 million people came here during this week.

Considering the total area of ​​the Union City, it would be more than enough for 60 million people, not to mention 6 million.

But if most of these 6 million people gathered in the urban area of ​​the Union City, it would be too crowded, and it could be described as a sea of ​​people.

Fortunately, about one-third of them seemed to think it was too crowded, and they couldn't buy tickets to watch the coordination competition on site, so they left the Union City one after another.

Some went to Yggdrasil, some went to Fishman City, and even some people went to see the newly built villages and towns around the Union City, which also relieved a lot of pressure on the Union City.

These people are basically people from the sailing world and the ninja world.

Usually, they can't use the teleportation array to come to the Pokémon Island, so they can only use the teleportation array to play in other cities of the Pokémon Island for a few days during this special period.

Tezoro estimated that more and more people would come here in the future, so he suggested that Dak expand the scale of the urban area.

But if you want to expand the urban area, it will inevitably occupy the location of the suburbs.

The natural environment of the suburbs of Union City and Yggdrasil has always been the favorite of the environmental department, and even they themselves dare not easily make changes.

Now that the finance department wants to touch their favorite, the environmental department is naturally very dissatisfied and protests with a gentle bear.

Dak thinks this is also a problem, and he is a little distressed for a while.

Because the natural environment of the suburbs of Union City has been built very perfectly, he doesn't want to destroy it all.

But the urban area of ​​Union City does need to be expanded. There will be more and more worlds in the future. If it doesn't expand, Union City will be squeezed and exploded in the future.

Dak pondered for a long time and set his sights on the inland sea where the Union base is located.

However, these things must be put off until after the coordination competition.

Pokémon coordination competition venue.

Although the price of the coordination competition venue is the same as that of the battle competition venue, the area occupied is incomparable to that of the battle competition.

The battle competition is open-air, with only one floor, so the area occupied is huge, covering 100,000 square meters.

The coordination competition is indoors and has two floors.

The first floor is used for exhibition matches. The interior is like a huge opera house, but unlike ordinary opera houses, it is a circular venue like the battle competition, with the surrounding audience seats surrounding the central performance stage.

The second floor is used for the battle competition, so the scope of the venue should be slightly larger, so that the coordinators can have a place to fight gorgeously.

The area of ​​the first and second floors is 4.5:5.

So from the appearance, the second floor of the coordination competition venue is one circle wider than the first floor.

Nine o'clock in the morning.

The first floor of the audience seats is already filled with nearly 100,000 spectators.

Originally, many people thought that if they were seated at the edge, they would not be able to see the performance clearly, but when they came to the audience seats, they would not think so.

The area of ​​the coordination competition venue is obviously not larger than that of the battle competition venue, but the price is the same, which is naturally expensive.

There is a virtual visual barrier between the stage and the audience seats.

This barrier can not only block the overflow of skill effects of coordinators and Pokémon to prevent accidents, but also amplify the performance on the stage to the most suitable level for the audience.

Although the distance from the stage is different, the visual effect seen by all the audience is exactly the same.

There is no price difference caused by the distance of the audience seats, only the difference between the east, west, south and north.

Coordinators and Pokémon generally perform in the direction of the three judges, that is, the east.

Then the ticket price of the audience seats in the east is naturally more expensive, and then it continues to decrease towards the sides until the price in the south area is the lowest.

"Welcome gentlemen, ladies and guests to our first Pokémon Coordination Competition venue."

When the time came, the host took the microphone on time and went on stage.

However, the moment they saw the host, several people sitting in a corner of the north area of ​​the audience seats became a little excited.

"Dancing sister?!"

"How can dancing sister be the host? I have never heard her say this."

Kirito and Asuna looked at the dazzling lady standing under the lights and looked at each other in shock.

Standing on the stage, Uchiha Kaimai is wearing a burgundy slit dress and burgundy ten-centimeter high heels. Coupled with the excellent appearance of the Uchiha clan, the current Uchiha Kaimai can be said to be Outstanding beauty.

"Huh? You didn't know? I thought you knew, so I didn't say anything."

Lisbeth glanced at the two of them in confusion.

In addition, there were Shangmi, Sachi, Zack, and other players who were friends with SAO. Of course, more people didn't get tickets, so they couldn't come in and could only watch the live broadcast outside.

"We have been staying in League City, how could we know these things."

"Liz, what's going on?"

Kirito and Asuna asked Lisbeth curiously.

The couple basically spent these days in the hunting area looking for suitable Pokémon partners, and basically didn't pay attention to other things.

"Originally, the leader of the alliance wanted Master to be the host for fun, but Master was not interested, so he asked Sister Qiwu to replace him."

Lisbeth pointed at Madara, who was sitting at the front of the east area.

There are also high-level alliance officials such as Izuna, Kakuto, and Hanzo over there. It was Dak's side who opened a trail and allowed these people to sit in the area with the best angle.

As for Kirito and the others, they don't have this preferential treatment and can only grab tickets themselves.

In fact, Kayaba Akihiko and Kamishiro Rinko, as members of the training house, were also placed in this area, not far from Madara.

It's just that they are so different now compared to before. Forget about Rinko Kamishiro, at most she has a third eye on her forehead, but she is not very famous, so Kirito can't remember her.

But Kayaba Akihiko was different. Not only he had become much younger, his hair was still the color of the Uzumaki clan, and he had a third eye on his forehead.

So Kirito and Asuna didn't recognize Kayaba Akihiko at all.

And Kayaba Akihiko is not the head of the scientific research department, and he will not appear in the book "Pokémon League".

Therefore, until now, after coming to Pokémon Island for so long, they still don't know that Kayaba Akihiko is still alive and living in Pokémon Island.

"Uncle Madara looks very proud."

Although the distance was a bit far, Kirito's vision was very sharp and he could barely detect the look in Madara's eyes.

"Of course, Master is a bit harsh on Sister Wu, but he really loves Sister Wu. It's just that their family is all arrogant."

Lisbeth shook her head helplessly, and then remembered something, "A few days ago, the leader of the alliance came to have tea with the master. He once said something to me, which I thought was quite good."

"What?"

Asuna came over curiously.

"'When communicating with the Uchiha clan, don't listen to what they say, but look into their eyes.'"

"To the point, correct."

Kirito crossed his arms in front of his chest and nodded in agreement.

Although Izuna is usually a very gentle person, she occasionally says some very damaging and harsh words.

"Then, let's ask the three scoring judges to introduce themselves."

As Wu Wu's words fell, three referees sitting on the east side of the stage appeared on the big screen. The three referees also waved in the direction of the camera.

"Hello everyone, I am the Minister of the Alliance's Medical Department and the Chief Director of the Elf Center, Vinsmoke Reiju."

"Hello everyone, I am Perona, the director of the league's referee department."

"Hello everyone, I am the head of the alliance's security department, Sugar! Just watch the show and don't cause trouble for me!"

Everyone: ".Hahahaha~"

"Ah~ I knew I shouldn't have let her come."

Duck, who was wearing a mask and sitting with his friends in the audience, had a headache and covered his forehead.

Reiju and Perona must come.

The former is one of the most famous figures in League City and the angel in the hearts of countless trainers; while the latter needs to watch the game all the time to prevent anyone from doing things outside the rules.

As for the last seat, it’s not so particular.

Duck originally planned to ask Stella, the general manager of the Friendly Store, or Monet, the minister of the scientific research department, or Olvia or Robin, the minister of the education department, to come.

But Sugar insisted on coming over to join in the fun. The four women were all very old and doted on the girl Sugar very much, so they gave up this position to her.

Dak saw that they all agreed, so naturally he had nothing to say.

Unexpectedly, the sugar gave him a big lump as soon as it came up.

Fortunately, the audience seemed to think it was quite funny and fun. Dak even heard many people praising Sugar for being cute, so he gave up the idea of ​​rushing up to give Sugar a blow.
