One Piece meme: Starting with eight extraordinary skills

That boy who hated evil so much has now grown into a Marine Admiral.

Jonathan was just an ordinary lieutenant, a far cry from the situation of Admiral Akainu.

For a fleeting moment, Jonathan felt that the figure before him overlapped with the image of Admiral Akainu in his youth.

Perhaps all great people share a strikingly similar aspect in their youth.

Those long-dead memories seemed to ignite a fire in the heart of this somewhat颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it implies a state of being listless, dispirited, or decadent) middle-aged man.

Jonathan tossed aside his cigarette, stomped on it a few times, extinguished the butt, clenched his fist, and, mimicking Yang Ming, pounded it hard against his chest, saying loudly:

"We will defend our honor with our blood!"

It was like some kind of solemn and sacred ceremony, which was incredibly awe-inspiring.

Smoker, Tina, Drake, and Dadi Masdason were all deeply shaken, punching their chests and shouting in unison:

"We will defend our honor with our blood!"

The crescent moon in the sky witnessed their vow.

This scene will be recorded in history and become a legend for future generations.

The six men looked at each other and smiled.

At that moment, a strong bond was formed among the six of them, making them a group led by Yang Ming.

Yang Ming's speech dispelled the concerns of the elite team members and inspired their fighting spirit. Everyone was eager to fly to Water City right now and show their skills.

Fortunately, everyone remained rational, knowing that they were far from Water Seven. After arranging for the night shifts, they went back to their rooms to rest.

Yang Ming returned to his room and immediately checked the system notification he had received earlier.

"Ding!"

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

The prizes in the lottery wheel are divided into two types: racial talents and skills.

Racial Traits: Escape Expert, Heroic Spirit, Resilience...

Skills: Charge, Rallying Shout, Execution...

[Heroic Aura]: You possess extraordinary confidence and great strength, and all attacks receive a small bonus.

Yang Ming walked up to a mirror.

His tall figure was reflected in the mirror. His well-fitting clothes covered the gauze wrapped around his body. His olive skin revealed a healthy glow, and his cold, hard lines outlined a resolute face.

Yang Ming wasn't exactly handsome, but he possessed a unique charm that set him apart from others in every gesture.

Perhaps this is the unique quality that the heroic spirit bestowed upon Yang Ming.

The reason why unknown individuals remain obscure and become the background templates of the world is not only because of their ordinary appearance and physique, but also because of the same temperament they possess that is no different from others.

Every powerful person who achieves great things is, without exception, a standout. Just by looking at them, you know that they are unique.

Today, Yang Ming possesses a unique temperament and has begun to cultivate his own distinctive aura.

Silent all night.

To avoid attracting the attention of Don Quixote's spies, the six men docked their strait sailboat on an island near Water Seven, then bought tickets and boarded a sea train to Water Seven.

Yang Ming and five others bought tickets together, and their seats were close together.

As the train whistle sounded, thick smoke billowed from the chimney, propelling the carriages along the tracks.

A pretty flight attendant came to the carriage where Yang Ming and the others were. She was wearing a black flight attendant hat with gold trim, and her tight purple uniform accentuated her slender figure. Every inch of her body was perfectly proportioned, neither too much nor too little.

The flight attendant had deliberately kept her long, wavy blonde hair down to her shoulders, which made her look even more charming and graceful. Her face was lightly made up, and her captivating eyes were filled with alluring glances.

With the clatter of her high heels on the floor, she swayed her slender waist, leaving countless male passengers dumbfounded and secretly swallowing.

Even Smoker, who is usually oblivious to romance, almost popped his eyes out the moment he saw the flight attendant.

Not to mention the others.

Women are naturally fond of beauty, but they all like to be beautiful themselves and don't like to see other women more beautiful than themselves.

Tina was no exception. Seeing Smoker and the others' pathetic state, she couldn't help but snort coldly. She hugged Yang Ming in her arms, rubbing his collagen-rich face with both hands, and said through gritted teeth:

"Yang Ming, when you grow up, you can't be as useless as these guys!"

"It's just a woman, is it really that big of a deal?"

Yang Ming was oblivious to his good fortune, feeling the pressure from the two indescribable objects, and was almost forced to wear a mask of pain.

The flight attendant cupped her hands to her stomach and bowed to the passengers in the carriage, revealing a deep cleavage that made many male passengers secretly exclaim that they couldn't take it anymore.

The flight attendant's sweet voice, like heavenly music, echoed throughout the carriage as she opened and closed her mouth.

"Hello everyone, welcome aboard the sea train. I am your attendant, Coco, and I will now introduce this journey to you."

"Now you are riding the Smoking Tom, a sea train built by the Tom Shipbuilding Company over thirteen years. It is currently in the trial operation and testing phase and has not yet been fully commercialized, so there is only one main train line, with the terminal station being Woof Station."

"Water Seven is also known as Shipbuilding Island. It is home to the world's best shipbuilding companies and the world's best shipwrights. Even Mr. Tom, known as the world's number one shipwright, lives in Water Seven. If anyone is interested in buying a ship, I can contact Tom Shipbuilding Company on your behalf. There is a 20% discount available now, first come, first served."

"Seven Waters is a land of outstanding people and abundant resources. Every year, it hosts a variety of events that attract tourists from all over the world. In the coming month, Seven Waters will be hosting a grand food festival, where renowned chefs from various islands will be invited to compete. If you want to indulge in a feast, don't miss it."

"..."

The flight attendant spoke with a clear and resonant voice, her words sharp and sweet.

While seemingly introducing Water Seven, the Kokoro crew occasionally interjected with advertisements for Tom Shipbuilding Company, which didn't feel out of place or unacceptable to viewers.

Instead, quite a few male passengers took the opportunity to hand Kokoro, the flight attendant, postcards, hoping to spend a wonderful night with this beautiful woman in Water Seven.

Yang Ming finally managed to break free from Tina's overwhelming pressure, and his expression turned slightly strange as he watched many male passengers fawning over flight attendant Coco.

If he remembered correctly, Kokoro was a mermaid, and her tail fin split into two legs after she grew up, which is why she was able to live on land.

Mermaids are all very beautiful when they are young, but unfortunately their bloom is very short-lived. Once they are over thirty, they will age rapidly.

Yang Ming's mind was filled with the image of the other person as an older woman, so he was completely immune to the appearance of the flight attendant, Kokoro.

Little did he know that his performance was a plus in Tina's eyes.

"No wonder he's the little man Tina approves of!"

"

The scenery outside the window flashed by, and ships came and went frequently on the sea.

Seven Waters is a world-famous island and an important commercial hub. The harbor is filled with merchant ships of all sizes, and laborers work hard to move goods amidst the shouts of sailors.

After an hour's journey, the train gradually slowed down and finally stopped at a dock.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the sea train has arrived at the Silft station. Please check your belongings and disembark in an orderly manner."

As soon as Yang Ming's feet touched the ground, he felt a wave of heat rushing towards him.

Looking around, the docks were packed with people.

Near the pier, there were many banners and slogans, and merchants and vendors were trying to attract customers.

"Gulf Hotel, hot springs and gourmet food, pink romance, 10,000 yuan a night, just bring your bags and check in."

"Rent a two-seater Blue mount that combines carrying backpacks and luggage with waterway sightseeing. It's an essential item for any trip. Rent it for one day for only 1,000 Berries."

"Freshly baked glutinous rice balls! Don't miss out!"

Yang Ming's gaze swept around the area before suddenly stopping on the container yard at the dock.

Fish-men, whose race and skin color are vastly different from humans, are sweating profusely and using their strength, which is ten times that of humans, to painstakingly move containers.

As the train attendant stood at the carriage door, she had already noticed this child with a unique temperament. Unlike the others, the child's eyes were always clear and bright when he looked at her, which made her feel good about him.

Following Yang Ming's gaze, flight attendant Xixi mistakenly assumed that Yang Ming had a problem with these fish-men, and immediately whispered:

"Those fishmen are all employees of Tom Shipbuilding Company."

Seeing Yang Ming turn his head to look at her, flight attendant Xixi smiled sweetly, revealing a row of white teeth.

"Tom is a kind old man who always likes to take care of those fish-people who are not successful. These fish-people are discriminated against by humans in other places and cannot find work, so Tom kindly took them in."

Yang Ming didn't reply, his gaze fixed on the group of fish-men laborers.

Despite their efforts to conceal it, a corner of the sun's mark on their arms was still visible.

That was a brand that had been altered to conceal the Celestial Dragons' mark, and it was also the symbol of the Sun Pirates.

Why are the members of the Sun Pirates here?

Chapter 21, Level 1000-7

Four years ago, Fisher Tiger free-climbed the Red Earth, wreaked havoc in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, and freed thousands of slaves, making headlines.

In the same year, Fisher Tiger founded the Sun Pirates.

Because of the fishman's actions, which caused the Celestial Dragons to lose face, a bounty of 230 million Berries was put on him as soon as he was put on the bounty, which is higher than the bounties of many rising stars in the Grand Line.

Last year was the year Yang Ming traveled through time.

While Yang Ming was still training hard in the East China Sea, one day major news media published articles announcing that Fisher Tiger's pirate crew had been ambushed by the Navy, and that he himself had been seriously injured and died.

Even though Dadan's family lived deep in the mountains, they still received this newspaper delivered by the newsbird and learned of this earth-shattering news.

Of course, Yang Ming was familiar with the plot and was not fooled by the one-sided story in the newspapers.

He knew that Fisher Tiger had been ambushed by the Navy on his way back after taking a human girl home. Feeling betrayed by humans, Fisher Tiger refused to donate human blood that matched his blood type and died from his injuries.

With the loss of Fisher Tiger, the fish-man leader, the Sun Pirates are currently leaderless.

Thanks to Garp's status as a naval hero, and because every weekend Garp would dump the tasks he hadn't finished during the week onto Yang Ming for help, ostensibly to train Yang Ming's abilities, Yang Ming was able to learn a piece of intelligence that the outside world was unaware of.

The World Government is in communication with the Navy's top brass and intends to appoint Jinbe, the Knight of the Sea, as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, in order to ease the increasingly sharp conflict between humans and fish-men.

It is said that Queen Otohime of Fishman Island played a key role in this, which made the World Government willing to discuss the matter.

Otherwise, given the Celestial Dragons' arrogant nature, they would probably want to wipe out all the Fish-Men from the world, because they hate everything associated with them.

That's why Yang Ming found it strange.

The Sun Pirates are currently in a situation where they are like rats crossing the street, hated by everyone. If they are discovered by others, they will probably suffer annihilation. How could they have the mood to come to Tom's Shipyard in Water Seven to work?

A group of pirates actually working honestly to earn money?
