One Piece meme: Starting with eight extraordinary skills

"Blanche, why did you do this?"

Sergeant Brannew looked up at his close friend, his eyes losing their usual sparkle, and said in a low voice:

"Feel sorry."

The young man with green hair, though young, seemed to have aged decades in an instant, his back hunched and dejected, filled with a somber mood.

Yang Ming and Momousagi Gion stood together, watching the seven naval officers and soldiers walk away into the distance, and thought to themselves with deep emotion:

"Justice is only a pursuit for some in the navy. For most junior naval officers and soldiers, what they seek is not some vague justice, but a stable and respectable job that can improve the quality of life for their families. That is all they hope for."

"Hope is so fragile that when it is shattered, it leaves only endless despair and struggle."

Chapter 54 Comparable to the Rumble-Rumble Fruit! The Power of Wind and Thunder

The New World, waters near Dressrosa.

The navy, which had been searching for the real Flamingo, had already shaken off the naval surveillance ships and quietly arrived in the vicinity. From a distance, they could see the massive outline of the Dressrosa Colosseum through binoculars.

A rebellious figure sat cross-legged on the bow of the Flamingo, gazing intently at the distant island, lost in thought.

Torrebol silently approached the blond youth from behind, bowed slightly, and said:

"Young Master, all the spies we planted on General Crane have been eliminated."

"In addition, Lieutenant General Tsuru also sent her regards to you through an intelligence agent. She is looking forward to seeing you imprisoned."

Doflamingo stood up, spreading his arms to the sides as if to embrace the Dressrosa Kingdom that was about to be his.

His thick knuckles cracked, his eyes behind his sunglasses flashed with a fierce light, and the corners of his mouth gradually turned up into a wicked laugh.

"Our plan is nearing completion, and we've reached the most critical moment. We absolutely cannot afford to fail."

"Inform Vergo to keep a close eye on the situation at Naval Headquarters and report any unusual activity immediately."

Under Doflamingo's planning and manipulation, the sea began to stir with undercurrents, ready to unleash a raging storm at any moment.

Perhaps, by the time the world realizes what's happening, the Kingdom of Dressrosa will have already changed drastically.

A warship was en route to the Kingdom of Dasobel in the South China Sea. A cloud hovered above the warship, and every now and then a bolt of lightning the thickness of a chopstick would strike the boy sitting cross-legged on the deck.

This was not because the boy had offended the heavens and thus incurred divine punishment, but rather because of the reward Yang Ming had previously received from the system.

"Ding!"

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

The lottery wheel slowly rises, offering only two types of prizes: abilities and weapons/equipment.

Abilities: Divine strength, Qi cultivation techniques, soul power, spells...

Weapons and Equipment: King Zhou's Armor, Eternal Night, Ziyu Sword...

[Divine Power of the Myriad Realms - Power of Wind and Thunder]: Allows one to control all things in heaven and earth for one's own use, utilize the power of nature in battle, and awaken the power of thunder.

The Divine Power of the Myriad Realms - Wind and Thunder Power is similar to the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, both possessing the power to control lightning.

The difference is that Yang Ming is not afraid of water, nor is he afraid of the sea stone.

If one were to eat the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, one could quickly gain the power of thunder.

The divine power of the Myriad Realms, specifically the power of wind and thunder, is different. Yang Ming needs to meditate quietly to comprehend the nature of this world and gradually master the power of thunder.

Initially, Yang Ming was unable to meditate or enter a state of deep concentration, let alone perceive the nature.

After two months at sea, Yang Ming has successfully meditated and comprehended nature. He is now able to draw down a bolt of lightning as thick as a chopstick from the sky, or wrap electric arcs around his body to enhance the lethality of his attacks.

It is remarkable that Yang Mingquan has achieved such results on his own without any guidance.

The moment the lightning bolt, as thick as a chopstick, struck the boy, Yang Ming trembled violently in pain. Fine electric currents spread throughout his limbs and bones, causing a large number of cells in his body to die. This, in turn, activated the ferocity of his superhuman cells and gourmet cells, which began to move undeterred, subtly enhancing Yang Ming's strength at the cellular level.

Tempering the body with lightning sounds easy, but only when you actually start training will you realize how painful the process is.

The pain in one's fingers is like a needle prick. When one finger is stabbed by a sharp object, all ten fingers will feel a needle-like pain. How much more so now that his whole body is being stimulated and cleansed by electric current. Even Yang Ming's hair is affected, standing up like a broom shape.

Without a doubt, the method of tempering the body with lightning is an extreme test of a person's willpower.

During this process, Yang Ming's physical body frequently switched between injury and self-healing. With a large supply of meat, his physical strength grew considerably.

Yang Ming vaguely sensed that his mastery of Iron Body, one of the Six Styles of the Navy, had reached its limit. If he took another step forward, he would be able to transform it into Armament Haki.

This step, though seemingly simple, has hindered countless naval officers and caused many self-proclaimed geniuses to waste half their lives.

Standing on the edge of the deck, Sergeant Xiu En occasionally saw bolts of lightning as thick as chopsticks striking down, and he gasped repeatedly.

"hiss!"

"Talented, capable, and trains even harder than others—is that why the captain is so strong?"

The scene before him seemed to ignite Cao Changxiu'en's fighting spirit, and he quickly picked up the heavy dumbbell that Yang Ming usually used and began to lift it up and down rhythmically.

Any being who awakens Conqueror's Haki can subtly influence those around them through their words and actions.

The reason why Conqueror's Haki is called the quality of a king is not only because of the power it possesses, but also because of its ability to subtly subdue others and win their hearts and minds.

Yang Ming's relentless training methods sparked a training frenzy on the warship, with all the soldiers putting in their best effort and full of enthusiasm!

"Drink! Drink! Drink!"

During breaks from duty, the soldiers stood side by side on the deck, feet shoulder to shoulder, fingers clenched into fists. With a loud shout, they threw a punch into the air.

The entire warship was bustling with activity, a stark contrast to two months ago.

Perhaps the capture of seven spies, including Sergeant Brannew, also contributed to the shock and impact of this event.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect.

Although no one says it out loud, when a colleague who has fought alongside them for many years is taken away, it is psychologically difficult to bear. Through selfless training, they can always relieve their distress and sorrow.

Looking at the figure bathed in lightning, Momousagi Gion asked the knowledgeable Vice Admiral Tsuru beside her:

"Yang Ming is really strange. He hasn't eaten any Devil Fruit, yet he possesses the power of fire and lightning. How is that possible?"

Lieutenant General Tsuru appeared quite calm, as if he had long been accustomed to such sights.

"This world is vast, and there are always some unique races that possess powers that humans do not have."

Upon hearing this, Momousagi Gion seemed to be deep in thought.

It seems that in the minds of Vice Admiral Tsuru and Gion Momousagi, Yang Ming has already been labeled as non-human.

Days passed quietly, and after overcoming numerous difficulties, the warship finally arrived at the Kingdom of Dasobel in the South China Sea.

After training as usual, Sergeant Xiu En was on guard duty on the mast lookout tower. Looking around through binoculars, he soon discovered that a raging fire was burning on the island where the Kingdom of Dassobel was located, with thick smoke billowing out.

After careful observation, Sergeant Xiu En immediately reported the military situation:

"report!"

"A group of unidentified pirates is attacking the Kingdom of Dasobel!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Ming finally stopped cultivating, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes as he opened and closed them.

As Yang Ming stood up, his stiff bones rubbed and collided with each other, making a series of crackling sounds, like popping beans.

With the enemy's situation unclear, Yang Ming did not rashly leave the team to act alone.

When the warships approached the Kingdom of Dasobel, they discovered that the fire in the city was extremely fierce, and the hot wind could be felt even from the harbor.

The Kingdom of Sobel in the South Sea is a winter island that remains at a low temperature year-round. Now, in late autumn, heavy snow has fallen. Logically speaking, even though the kingdom consists of brick and wood structures that could easily catch fire, it is unlikely that such a terrible fire could have occurred.

Unless, it's the work of a Devil Fruit user!

What Yang Ming could think of, Lieutenant General He, known as a wise general, could naturally think of as well.

As the army commander, Lieutenant General Tsuru immediately issued orders.

"The First Squadron will remain stationed to guard against pirate attacks on the warships."

"The second and third brigades entered the city to extinguish the fire and search for and rescue the affected people."

"Fourth Battalion, Fifth Battalion, Sixth Battalion, follow me to wipe out the pirates!"

On the warship, twenty men formed a squad, fifty men formed a company, and one hundred men formed a battalion.

Vice Admiral Tsuru's flagship can accommodate up to 560 naval soldiers, divided into six squadrons. One of these squadrons is not fully staffed and is used for logistics and support in peacetime.

The five brigadier generals under Lieutenant General Tsuru do not hold leadership positions. Instead, they serve as Lieutenant General Tsuru's deputies, handling official duties on a daily basis and acting as the highest combat force to deal with powerful enemy opponents during battles.

Lieutenant General Crane took out a map and quickly scanned the city layout and terrain of the Kingdom of Sobel. He was already confident and divided the three battalions into three groups, each led by a brigadier general.

"The Fourth Brigade is heading straight for the warehouses and logistics facilities, especially the granaries, which are of utmost importance. We must not let the pirates destroy the granaries, otherwise the residents of the Kingdom of Sobel will have no food to eat after the disaster."

"The Fifth Battalion is heading straight for the royal city; we must rescue the royal family of the Kingdom of Sobel!"

"The Sixth Brigade will wipe out the pirates along the main road. Any pirate who disobeys orders will be killed on the spot without mercy!"

With a clear mind, Lieutenant General He issued orders, and the entire army began to operate like a tightly wound machine.

Despite her kind and gentle demeanor, Lieutenant General Tsuru's final words were filled with murderous intent.

Yang Ming, as the squadron leader, belongs to the Fifth Battalion.

Because of Yang Ming's special status and powerful background, the captain of the Fifth Brigade basically turned a blind eye and never interfered in the management of Yang Ming's squadron. This made Yang Ming's squadron very special and gave it a strong degree of autonomy.

Of course, unless necessary, Yang Ming would not show off his special status and usually followed the collective command.

Yang Ming led 50 soldiers under his command, following Brigadier General Momousagi Gion, straight towards the royal city.

Chapter 55 No matter when, where, or for what reason, one should never easily provoke the matter of death.

South China Sea, Dasobel Kingdom.

This was originally just an obscure winter island in the South China Sea, but it became famous because of the Tyrant Bear.

Like many winter islands, it is snowy all year round, with thick snow covering the ground. The coniferous forests stubbornly survive in the biting cold winds, and occasionally carnivorous wild animals such as white-furred bears and wolves can be seen.

The people of the Kingdom of Dasobel have lived here for generations and have become accustomed to the climate of the winter island, resulting in buildings with distinctive local characteristics. The buildings are generally gray in color, and the architectural style is mostly tower-shaped structures with large sloping facades and dusty roofs, giving people a quiet, solemn, and gloomy feeling.

Thick walls can block the cold wind and air, tower-shaped houses can make full use of land area to accommodate more people, and when the fireplace burns wood for heating, the heat can be locked inside the house to the maximum extent, while carbon dioxide is released from the roof through special exhaust pipes.

"Ta-da! Ta-da! Ta-da!"

When the clock hands reached noon, the clock tower emitted a rapid chime.
