First Marine Battle Royale

A Battle Royale used by officials to gauge the skill, power, intelligence, and tenacity of new Marine recruits.

The First Marine Battle Royale was initiated by Armstrong shortly after the arrival of new Marine recruits into the D-1 Marine Base. Many individual fights were fought in the Battle Royale, notable clashes being Tezen Tendo and Toryiama Ryu along with Mi Amor and Armstrong. Armstrong also called in several other higher-ups to the fight, as he realized it would be difficult for the new recruits to defeat him, one of these marines was Ahiko. The Battle ended with Appa Hefu as the winner, due to Tendo, Ryu and Mi Amor all knocking themselves out together, all being hit by each others attacks. Many Marines watched this battle and dubbed Appa as the "Strongest Rookie" despite the fact he had done little in the fight.
