One Piece meme: Starting with eight extraordinary skills

Dark Night Pirates?

Or is it the Red-Haired Pirates?

These intelligent people were completely baffled due to a lack of crucial information.

But it is precisely because they are smart that they understand even more clearly that before this huge and uncertain future arrives, clinging to powerful figures is the best option to get through the difficulties.

Within the entire navy, whose leg is the thickest?

Does this need to be said?

It's none other than Marshal Shura!

These people may seem to be trying to win over Bucky the Clown, Lieutenant General Jonathan, and Lieutenant General Drake, but aren't they also expressing their obedience to Marshal Shura and showing that they will closely unite around him?

Smart people have their ways of doing things, and not-so-smart people also have their own ways of doing things.

Generals like Vice Admiral Smoker, with their muscular builds and simple minds, may not be able to fathom Fleet Admiral Shura's true intentions, but they are intensifying the training of their troops, striving to further enhance their combat capabilities before the final battle against the Whitebeard Pirates.

Under this oppressive atmosphere of impending storm, time slowly passed.

Time is the most ruthless and indifferent thing, and it does not change according to one's will.

The one-year deadline is fast approaching, and the countdown to the execution of Fire Fist Ace has begun.

Atop the towering walls of Marineford, the naval headquarters, a high execution platform has been erected, estimated to be at least five meters tall. The entire frame is reinforced with steel, capable of withstanding the full force of a sea train's impact.

Not far from the execution platform were three huge chairs, provided for the three admirals of the Navy Headquarters to sit on.

Standing atop the high execution platform, one can see the view of half the island, including steel warships moored at the port, and even a few larger warships among them, which are the latest battleships.

Adhering to the concepts of "bigger is better" and "truth lies only within the range of artillery fire," the battleship was entirely cast in steel and powered by five steam boilers. It was 1.5 times larger than an ordinary steel warship, and its sides were equipped with menacing cannons, making it a nightmare for anyone.

Such a spectacular sight is enough to deter any villain.

So much so that when the invited journalists stepped into Marineford, the naval headquarters, they were almost speechless with surprise.

Seemingly to express his loyalty to the World Government and the Five Elders, or perhaps to flex his muscles against the pirates, and even more so to demonstrate the strength of the Navy, Yang Ming specially invited numerous media figures and reporters, including Bellemere, the president of the Bright News Agency, to Marineford, the Navy Headquarters, to broadcast live the final preparations before the execution of Portgas D. Ace. Such boldness and magnanimity are truly rare in the world.

Chapter 458 The World Shocks

Seemingly to express his loyalty to the World Government and the Five Elders, or perhaps to flex his muscles against the pirates, and even more so to demonstrate the strength of the Navy, Yang Ming specially invited numerous media figures and reporters, including Bellemere, the president of the Bright News Agency, to Marineford, the Navy Headquarters, to broadcast live the final preparations before the execution of Portgas D. Ace. Such boldness and magnanimity are truly rare in the world.

When these journalists arrived at Marineford, the naval headquarters, on their cruise ship, and saw rows of brand-new, gleaming steel warships, especially the few battleships among them, almost all the media reporters exclaimed in surprise.

"My God! So many warships!"

"Look, those are warships we've never seen before! Could this be a secret weapon the navy is preparing?"

"Battleship, what an imposing name!"

"Breaking news! This is really big news!"

"I originally thought that with the world's strongest man at the helm, the Whitebeard Pirates would be able to go toe-to-toe with the Navy, but now it seems that the Whitebeard Pirates are in grave danger!"

Following their professional instincts, the reporters pulled out their cameras and snapped photos of the scene before them, flashes going off constantly and dazzling the eyes.

Bellemere brushed a strand of hair behind her ear and stood on the harbor dock of the naval headquarters, facing the sea breeze on her face, feeling somewhat dazed.

There was a time when she dreamed of joining the Navy Headquarters, but she was just an ordinary person with limited potential. At best, she could only be a private, and in the end, she retired as a private second class.

If she hadn't met Marshal Shura, she would probably still be living in seclusion on Orange Island in the East China Sea, raising her two daughters, completely unaware of the vastness and wonder of this world.

The person in charge of receiving the group of media reporters was Ain, who has now been promoted to major general. The speed of her promotion is like that of a rocket, which is the envy of many.

Of course, Ain's promotion to major general was not due to his nepotism with Yang Ming, but rather to his solid combat record and merits. Others would only envy him, not be jealous or resentful.

On the contrary, because of her pure and sweet appearance and tall and slender figure, Ain has a great influence among young naval officers and soldiers. Some even call her a flower in the military, or simply a military flower.

The naval officers and soldiers pursuing Aion could form a long line stretching from Marineford, the naval headquarters, all the way to the Sabaody Archipelago. However, what puzzles many people is that, despite being in the prime of her youth, Aion has always been indifferent to all her suitors, rejecting them outright and remaining single to this day.

These people naturally didn't understand that in the heart of this military beauty, Ai En, there was already someone she loved. It was just that that person was of a higher status and was worlds apart from her, so she could only bury this matter in her heart and was unwilling to share this secret with anyone.

Upon seeing Bellemere and her group of media reporters, Ian managed a slight smile, revealing adorable dimples on her cheeks, and said:

"Dear journalists, please come with me for a tour."

The reporters weren't ungrateful fools; they were perceptive enough to know that the Navy was on the eve of its decisive battle with the Whitebeard Pirates, and there were probably many traps or other such things hidden nearby. Following Rear Admiral Ain was the safest option; otherwise, if they sneaked away alone, they might not even know how to spell death.

The reporters were like country bumpkins visiting the Grand View Garden, finding everything fascinating. Their cameras never stopped clicking, and some even dared to take pictures of Ayn. This naval officer, with her excellent looks and figure, was the dream girl of countless men. If they used her as a mistress, the newspaper's business would be booming.

The reporters were thrilled just thinking about that scene.

The reporters also carried video dennbushi (snail-shaped electric scooter) with them. These video dennbushi, with their wide, lifeless pupils, captured the surrounding scene and transmitted it through bio-electric waves, allowing any force or individual outside who possessed a video dennbushi to watch the live broadcast.

The World Government, various kingdoms, pirates, all kinds of forces, large and small, and even ordinary people with a little money, all stayed in front of the video Den Den Mushi, watching the live broadcast in astonishment, and all gasped in surprise.

"hiss!"

At that moment, at least one million people around the world gasped in shock.

If global warming occurs, they all bear an undeniable responsibility.

"There are actually more than 300 ordinary steel warships?"

"There are also battleships that are far more imposing than steel warships. The number of cannons they carry is more than double that of ordinary warships, and their combat capabilities at sea are unimaginable!"

"More than 200,000 elite troops have gathered at Marineford, the Marine Headquarters. This army has already defeated the Bigo Pirates, proving that they possess considerable power!"

"Hiss! They haven't suffered many casualties? How is that possible? Don't people die in battle? Don't they get injured? Don't they get crippled? How come they're still alive and kicking? Could it be that the Navy has some kind of miraculous drug that can heal injuries in a short time, or some kind of advanced medical technology?"

"So that's the army of artificial Devil Fruit users. They're all Zoan-type Devil Fruit users. Although their physique and recovery abilities are relatively weaker compared to the full-fledged Zoan-type Devil Fruit users, they are still a force to be reckoned with!"

"Wait a minute! What's with that group of giants?"

"My God! A full 500 giant soldiers? Could they have received support from the giant kingdom of Elbaf?"

The reporters' portable video telescopes constantly rotated their viewpoints, allowing people around the world to directly experience the strength and might of the navy.

When the ground shook violently and five hundred giant soldiers appeared, it attracted widespread attention from all over the world!

"impossible!"

"This is absolutely impossible!"

Elbaf, the kingdom of giants, known as the world's strongest nation, is now filled with giants watching the video Den Den Mushi, who all roar in disbelief.

Elbaf, the Kingdom of Giants, is located to the east of Wano Country. It is divided into towns and villages. Due to the difficulty of the giants to reproduce and thrive, the population of the Kingdom of Giants has remained stable, with a total size of no more than 10,000 people. They are very familiar with each other, so if a giant were to wander outside, it would not be a completely unfamiliar face that they have never seen before, or even a complete stranger whose background they do not know.

Chapter 459 A New General Makes His Debut

Elbaf, the Kingdom of Giants, is located to the east of Wano Country. It is divided into towns and villages. Due to the difficulty of the giants to reproduce and thrive, the population of the Kingdom of Giants has remained stable, with a total size of no more than 10,000 people. They are very familiar with each other, so if a giant were to wander outside, it would not be a completely unfamiliar face that they have never seen before, or even a complete stranger whose background they do not know.

At this moment, when the Titans saw through the live broadcast of the Den Den Mushi that five hundred Titan soldiers had appeared at Marineford, the Marine Headquarters, and that none of them were new faces, they were so angry, so shocked, and so incredulous!

"Get out of the way! Get out of my way!"

Just as the giants were making a ruckus, a loud voice suddenly came from behind, forcefully pushing aside the surrounding giants and clearing a wide path.

As mentioned earlier, giants are generally strong in body but simple in mind, and are also impulsive and easily angered. Being forcibly excluded from the ranks naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of many giants, and some even secretly gripped their weapons, wanting to teach the other side a lesson.

But when they turned around and saw the two figures that were taller than ordinary giants, these giants changed their expressions faster than turning the pages of a book. A moment ago, they were full of anger, but now they were happy.

"Ao Oni-sama! Red Oni-sama!"

"My goodness, even Prince Loki has come!"

Blue Oni Dorry and Red Oni Brogy stood like two guardian deities on the earth, carving a path through the noisy horde of giants, before respectfully kneeling to welcome Prince Loki as he slowly approached from behind.

Prince Loki is the prince of the giant kingdom of Elbaf.

Many people may not have a deep impression of him, but if we change his name, it will probably evoke memories for everyone.

He's the man with unique tastes who fell for Lola!

The giant kingdom of Elbaf is less a feudal kingdom and more accurately described as a backward and ignorant tribal civilization. Even in Prince Loki, the characteristics of tribal civilization can still be seen.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Prince Loki slowly approached the video Den Den Mushi, gazing intently at the live feed. His eyes lingered on the giant soldiers for a long time before he sighed softly and said:

"It seems that the World Government and the Navy have discovered the secret of giantification."

The ordinary giants were completely bewildered, utterly confused, and couldn't understand what Prince Loki was talking about.

However, the Blue Oni Dorry and the Red Oni Brogy, who already possessed the qualifications to access the core secrets of the Giant Kingdom of Elbaf, were both shocked upon hearing this, exchanging incredulous glances:

"How can this be!"

“Nothing is impossible.” Prince Loki shook his head and said, “Eight hundred years ago, the Great Kingdom was destroyed in the great war between Joy Boy and Im. We, as the descendants of the survivors of the Great Kingdom, have been living in a corner of the New World, not daring to expand outwards. We have even restricted our people from going out, just to prevent any of our people from being left behind and arrested by the World Government and the Navy, so as to find the secrets of our people.”

"But now it seems that the plan has ultimately failed."

"Pass down my order: the entire country is to enter a state of first-level alert."

The giants all trembled in awe.

Although most giants don't understand profound things like the Great Kingdom or the secrets of their people, they do understand that Level 1 alert is a state of alert that is only activated when facing the catastrophe of national extinction!

The giants were immediately in an uproar.

Seeing that Prince Loki didn't seem to be joking with them, they all subconsciously complied.

Prince Loki stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes filled with deep worry:

"Hopefully, things haven't developed to the point I imagined."

"otherwise……"

Outsiders would never dream that the so-called world's strongest nation actually has such a vulnerable side.

In fact, to protect the secrets of their people, the giant kingdom of Elbaf remained secluded on this island and never expanded outwards.

It has to be said that, in some ways, this is a huge irony.

Our gaze shifts back to Marineford, the Marine Headquarters.

Following the appearance of the artificial Devil Fruit user army and the giant army, a technological army dressed in Iron Man Mark series armor has also made its debut.

However, the people in this world have very simple values. They have an extraordinary passion for muscles and superpowers, but little interest in technological products. As a result, the technology legion did not attract much attention from the media.

On the contrary, after the various elite legions made their appearances, the naval commanders of all ranks who followed them on stage made the media reporters feel like they had been injected with stimulants, and their cameras never stopped clicking.

"Look! That's Lieutenant General Smoker, who's hailed as having the strength of a near-general!"

"My God, Lieutenant General Shiryu, who earned the title of 'Rainy Night Butcher,' has actually come too. This is going to be a good show!"
