One Piece meme: Starting with eight extraordinary skills

A resolute-looking young man sat cross-legged at the bow of the ship, flames and lightning occasionally emanating from his body. These originally scattered elemental forces, which were unruly, fierce and uncontrollable, and capable of causing considerable destruction to anyone once they erupted, were now like obedient sheep, each transforming into a spherical shape. A red and a blue energy sphere floated beside the young man.

Yang Ming's ability to wield flames and lightning with ease is not only due to his daily diligent practice, but also to the gains he made recently.

"Ding!"

"Congratulations, host, for reciting a classic line from Fairy Tail. You have been awarded one chance to draw a prize. Would you like to start the prize wheel?"

A lottery wheel slowly appeared, with only two types of prizes: magic and treasure.

Magic: Fire Dragon Slayer Magic, Spatial Magic...

Treasures: Thunder Dragon Slayer Crystal, Fairy Heart...

【Fairy Heart】: Enhances control over elements, amplifies the damage of various elemental skills, and expands the range of skill effects.

If Yang Ming's body were dissected at this moment, one would surely discover a physiological structure that would amaze any scientist in the world.

What was inside Yang Ming's heart was not a normal human heart, but a multifaceted crystal, within which one could vaguely see the silhouette of a human, and it shimmered with a strange light.

This fairy's heart, like a computer's central processing unit, sorted out the slightly disordered elemental power within Yang Ming's body.

The heart belongs to the fire element in the Five Elements theory. The fire element that Yang Ming initially mastered is also the most powerful force in his body, and it is now entrenched in his heart.

In the Five Elements theory, the lungs belong to the metal element, and a vibrant thunder element gathers its power in the lungs.

In the Five Elements theory, the spleen belongs to Earth, which is the most Yin of all Yin elements. The power of darkness and shadows ruthlessly occupies a place here.

Whenever Yang Ming uses the Sage's Thief technique, three completely different forces flow through the meridians along their respective routes. The superhuman cells and gourmet cells in the blood vessels, like diligent gardeners, conscientiously replenish the energy needed by the body to all parts of the body.

With each practice of various techniques, Yang Ming's body underwent changes that were difficult for outsiders to observe. Small changes occurred every day, major changes occurred every three months, and a year was enough to bring about earth-shattering changes.

As a result, the aura emanating from Yang Ming became increasingly powerful, making every soldier on the warship feel genuine pressure.

"call!"

As Yang Ming exhaled a breath of stale air through his nose, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes. The lightning and fire power emanating from his body transformed into an energy arrow that shot out and plunged into the rippling blue ocean, creating a splash.

Ellie Bonney, who had never liked cultivation, sat alone on the railing. Her denim tights outlined her lovely curves, and her two slender legs swung in the air. One hand was under her chin as she watched Yang Ming grow stronger, her beautiful eyes sparkling with emotion.

Yang Ming ignored Joelle Bonney's attention.

In fact, Yang Ming had no good feelings for this girl. Anyone who discovers his little secret would probably not give her a friendly look.

If Yang Ming hadn't been a non-bloodthirsty person and hadn't been convinced that the image he cultivated within the Navy was perfect, and hadn't been worried about the serious consequences if the matter got out, a ruthless person would probably have already killed her without leaving her a whole body.

Seeing that Yang Ming ignored her, Joelle Bonney felt secretly angry.

"She's so cute, why doesn't he even give her a second glance?"

After completing his daily training, Yang Ming inspected the warship and urged officers and soldiers at all levels to train diligently.

In fact, without Yang Ming's supervision, his subordinates were the most diligent soldiers in the entire navy. Every morning, they would get up and swim a hundred laps around the warship. After breakfast, they would continue to conduct simulated bayonet fighting training on the deck.

Of course, in addition to adequate food, Yang Ming was also generous with money for such high-intensity training. He promised every soldier that they would receive an extra paycheck that month after completing a certain amount of training. This extra paycheck would not be paid by the Navy Headquarters, but by Yang Ming himself.

In addition, Yang Ming's loyal subordinate Jonathan, under Yang Ming's instruction, would conduct ideological education for every soldier after the troops finished training every day, demanding their loyalty to Yang Ming, in order to firmly imprint his mark on this army.

Just like Yuan Shikai trained the New Army back then, Yang Ming demanded that this force belong entirely to him, and that it dare to follow him even if it rebelled against the Navy Headquarters or even when dealing with the Celestial Dragons.

The entire warship was filled with a frenzied atmosphere, which was exactly the scene Yang Ming had hoped to see.

Sky Island is located on the Grand Line and is an island that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, so much so that many people often think that Sky Island does not exist.

But in reality, Sky Islands do exist.

For example, in the original work, Nami once visited the small sky island of Visalia. This is the closest sky island to the Blue Sea among all the sky islands, and its area is extremely small, just enough to accommodate a small village. It is the world's most comprehensive weather science island, gathering weather experts from all over the world.

Because the small sky island of Visalia drifts erratically around the world with the wind, only landing in the Qinghai Lake for resupply during certain periods, the weather research experts on Visalia maintain close contact and cooperation with the World Government in order to successfully conduct weather research. They are responsible for providing the World Government with real-time weather forecasts and feasible weather predictions for naval operations.

If following the Navy's normal route, they would usually go to the small sky island of Visalia, and then use this island as a transit point to reach other sky islands.

Yang Ming naturally did not want his whereabouts to be known by too many colleagues, so he had no choice but to come to Gaya Island.

Near Gaya Island, a peculiar ocean current forms every few months, crashing into the sky. Ships that come into contact with this massive current are unable to withstand the impact and are almost always smashed to pieces, leaving behind rumors of a ship graveyard. This has made Gaya Island a well-known forbidden zone, and most merchant ships and pirate ships avoid this area as much as possible.

Yang Ming and his group went against the grain, and along the way they did not see any passing merchant ships or pirate ships. The sea area was extremely quiet.

I calculated the time, and it's now the time when the ocean currents are active.

Yang Ming felt something and suddenly looked up.

The sky had become overcast with dark clouds, and the once calm sea suddenly became turbulent, causing the three-masted sailboat to sway violently from side to side.

Yang Ming's troops were elite and already knew that he was going to the Sky Island. The weaker soldiers quickly took out ropes and tied themselves to the mast.

The surging ocean currents suddenly transformed into a towering torrent, a bizarre sight known to the world as the Monster Current. It stretched between heaven and earth like a pillar supporting the sky, its diameter unknown. A three-masted sailing ship, traveling rapidly upwards with the current, only occupied a small portion of its area.

One thousand meters...

Three thousand meters...

5,000 meters...

The three-masted sailboat sailed upstream for seven thousand meters, breaking through the sea of ​​clouds formed by the cumulonimbus clouds, and continued to soar into the sky with undiminished momentum.

In the understanding of the Sky Island people, the ordinary ocean on the ground is called the Blue Sea, the ocean at an altitude of 7,000 meters is called the White Sea, which is already suitable for ordinary ships to navigate, and the ocean at an altitude of more than 10,000 meters is called the White-White Sea.

The higher the altitude, the thinner the air, and the more difficult it is to breathe oxygen.

Generally speaking, for every kilometer increase in altitude, the temperature drops by 6 degrees Celsius, and the air pressure also decreases accordingly.

Upon reaching the White Sea at an altitude of over 10,000 meters, the temperature plummeted to tens of degrees below zero. Although the oxygen content in the air was no different from that at ground level, the atmospheric pressure at high altitudes was only 0.2 atmospheres. Even a deep breath didn't allow for much oxygen absorption, causing many soldiers to experience oxygen deficiency and their complexions to turn extremely pale.

Fortunately, Yang Ming had prepared a large number of oxygen cylinders before coming to the sky island. After the soldiers were untied, they took out their oxygen cylinders to assist their breathing, which finally stabilized their situation.

Before everyone could react, a cannon blast suddenly came from the sea of ​​clouds.

Yang Ming looked in the direction of the sound and saw a shell flying in, followed by a burly man dressed in ethnic minority attire, carrying a self-propelled cannon barrel on his shoulder. The barrel was emitting smoke, indicating that this was the man firing the cannon.

"We Shandiya people do not welcome any outsiders!"

"Die, all of you!"

Chapter 119 Want to Live? Follow Me

Like many Shandiya people, as a descendant of the great warrior Calgra, the War Demon Vepa had tattoos of the sacred tree and bell-shaped patterns on his face and body after completing the tribe's coming-of-age ceremony.

These unique tattoo patterns are symbols passed down from generation to generation by the Shandians. They serve both as a memorial to their faith and as a way to express gratitude to the great adventurer Rolando for saving the Shandians more than four hundred years ago.

As always, War Ghost Wipa was patrolling the surrounding Sky Island waters in his Sky Island-specific vehicle, the Wiba.

In recent years, the conflict between the Shandians and the angels in the Kingdom of God has intensified, with deep estrangement between them, and the conflict is on the verge of erupting.

What's even more unsettling is that refugees are constantly fleeing from the small sky island of Birka in the south and pouring into Angel Island, bringing shocking news that a Thunder Tyrant has been born on the small sky island of Birka and is ruthlessly eliminating those who oppose him.

I'm afraid that once that self-proclaimed god has completely finished ruling the little sky island of Bika, he will turn his attention to the region where the Shandians live.

The Vehau is made of wood and iron and looks like a boat. It has wind-blown shells installed on the sides or stern to enable the boat to sail quickly on the white sea.

With his hands on the handlebars of the Wiba, the Wiba's tail section spewed out a powerful blast of air, reaching speeds comparable to a regular motorcycle, leaving long streaks in the white sea.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, the war ghost Wipa spotted the silhouette of a huge three-masted sailing ship ahead, and a hint of displeasure flashed between his brows.

Although people from the Blue Sea are rarely seen on the Sky Island, the highly respected shamans in Shandiya always write various classic texts to inspire the wisdom of future generations. Among them are records of the unique physical appearance of the people from the Blue Sea.

With his sharp eyes, War Ghost Wipa noticed something unusual about the group of people on the deck wearing naval uniforms from afar: they didn't have wings or angel wings as decorations on their backs.

"The Kingdom of God does not welcome any outsiders!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the war ghost Wipa put the cannon he was carrying on his back on his shoulder, lit the fuse, and immediately fired a dark solid cannonball.

"Let's use this shot to scare these people and make them back down!"

Just as the war demon Wipa was feeling smug, he suddenly saw a boy on the deck abruptly block the path of the cannonball, as if he were going to his death.

"This brat, does he want to die?"

The thought had barely formed in his mind when the shell struck the boy, producing a tremendous roar.

Smoke filled the surroundings, and the war demon Wipa's eyes pierced through the mist. He suddenly saw that the boy was unharmed, and his pupils suddenly contracted sharply.

The boy had not a single injury, and even his clothes showed no signs of wear and tear, which was simply unbelievable.

The Shandians have lived in harsh natural environments since childhood. When their tribe arrived on the resource-poor sky island, every Shandian was taught hunting techniques under the guidance of their elders from the moment they were born, and they had to learn how to use various weapons at a young age.

As the pride of the Shandiya people, the War Demon Vepa could run at the age of one, identify prey at the age of two, make simple traps at the age of three, use firearms at the age of four, and began his first hunt at the age of five under the guidance of the elders of the tribe.

Now, more than a decade later, War Ghost Wipa has developed extremely high tactical skills through countless hunts and immediately realized that he had kicked a hornet's nest!

"Oops!"

War Demon Wipa felt a chill run down his spine. He had never seen anyone escape unscathed from a cannonball. Even the current ruler of the Kingdom of Gods, God Gan Fall, could not escape unscathed when facing War Demon Wipa.

But what's going on with the other party right now?

"escape!"

At that moment, the thought flashed through War Ghost Wipa's mind, and that's exactly what he did.

Past hunting experience has taught the War Demon Wipa that when faced with an invincible enemy, running away is not a shameful thing. As long as you leave behind a useful body, there is always a chance to turn the tide.

Yang Ming looked up and saw the other side fire a shot and then turn and run away, a helpless expression on his face.

"Tina, tell me, am I really that scary?"

"Pfft!"

Tina covered her mouth and smiled, seemingly finding the scene quite amusing as well.

Jonathan stroked his mustache, subtly offering a compliment, and said:

"The captain's reputation is growing day by day. Even in a wild place like Sky Island, people have probably heard of the captain's name."

Ever since witnessing Yang Ming's deeds in the Kingdom of Prodens, Jonathan had a premonition that Yang Ming would accomplish great things, and now he can be considered Yang Ming's number one loyal subject.

Yang Ming unconsciously stroked his smooth chin with his fingers, his gaze deep as he said:

"We're new here, so we need a native to explain the current situation on the sky island to us."

"Since this person provoked us first, even if he is not the person wanted by the bounty, we as the navy have the right and responsibility to arrest him to prevent such dangerous individuals from causing trouble outside."

That's a very reasonable reason!

Dealing with a minor character like War Ghost Wipa, Yang Ming naturally didn't need to personally intervene; otherwise, it would be beneath him.
