One Piece meme: Starting with eight extraordinary skills

Of course, during this process, he also saw some things he shouldn't have seen, such as what happened in Momousagi Gion's changing room, which he really didn't know.

He's just a child, what bad intentions could he possibly have?

Thanks to the information provided by Shakky, Yang Ming learned that there were seven of Doflamingo's spies on this warship, and he had been searching for clues about them for more than a month.

However, if these seven informants were so easy to discover, then Vice Admiral Tsuru's long-standing mission to capture Doflamingo would not have failed.

It is worth noting that Vice Admiral Tsuru is known as a wise strategist within the Navy Headquarters, second only to Fleet Admiral Sengoku.

Yang Ming didn't believe that Lieutenant General He hadn't suspected internal problems after his repeated failures.

Judging from the fact that Fleet Admiral Sengoku adopted and influenced Doflamingo's brother Rosinante, making this second-generation Donquixote Family Heart a Marine spy and infiltrating Doflamingo's inner circle, the two sides have been infiltrating each other and their open and covert struggles have become increasingly fierce over the years.

Unfortunately, Rosinante was shot and killed by his own brother two years ago.

The key location that caused this accident was Mignon Island, the island the warship was gradually approaching.

Two years ago, many things happened on this island, which changed the fate of many people.

Drake, a top student in this year's naval academy, is the son of Ain Barrels, a former naval officer who left the navy for unknown reasons to become a pirate. He led his own pirate crew, which once occupied this island, trading the Op-Op Fruit with the navy's high command through the Donquixote Family, a group of shady middlemen.

In order to cure Trafalgar Law's illness, Rosinante risked getting involved in the deal and took the Op-Op Fruit, which led to a series of consequences, including his own death and the complete annihilation of Barrels and his pirate crew.

Because of his father Barrez's circumstances, Drake, as an orphan, hated naval soldiers with powerful connections, which is why he repeatedly targeted Yang Ming when Yang first entered the naval academy.

The past is gone, all the sordid things have long been buried under the vast white snow.

Apart from the parties involved, not many people are paying attention to how this matter is developing.

Just like the naval soldiers who came to search after receiving the intelligence, how many of them know about the past events that happened here?

On the mast lookout tower, Sergeant Xiu En, holding a telescope, finally spotted a ship that looked just like the Flamingo and immediately reported it to Yang Ming.

"Captain, target spotted three nautical miles out at two o'clock!"

At that moment, Bellamy and his friends were unaware of the approaching danger and were having a party on the ship's deck.

Despite the weather turning colder, the banquet was quite lively.

A hot young woman wandered among the tables, pouring rum for the small-time thugs from a small town in Beihai. She was frequently groped, and let out a coquettish cry that seemed to both refuse and welcome, which made the group of thugs laugh.

"Bellamy, this is life!"

The blue-haired youth with a middle parting crossed his legs, grabbed the slender waist of the girl next to him, pulled her into his arms, tasted the grapes she fed him, and sighed:

"So this is what it's like to be a vassal of the Donquixote Family! We have no shortage of money, supplies, or women, and they even gave us this pirate ship. If only we hadn't been thugs back then, we would have joined the Donquixote Family long ago!"

Bellamy glanced at his childhood friend Satchis, raised his glass full of rum, and shouted:

"Long live the Donquixote Family! Long live Doflamingo!"

The group of thugs quickly followed suit, shouting "Long live!"

Some shrewd thugs, with fawning smiles, flattered her:

"Brother Bellamy is intelligent, brave, and insightful. I think he has the potential to become a hero!"

"Yes, yes, yes, long live Bellamy!"

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Bellamy was completely drunk. In his moment of triumph, listening to the flattery of his underlings, his confidence swelled up. Even Doflamingo, whom he had always admired, seemed insignificant. With a young female delinquent in his arms, he uttered a series of boastful words.

"Once we've recruited enough soldiers, we'll also set sail for the Grand Line!"

"I... will become the Pirate King!"

Sometimes you really can't get arrogant, or even God won't stand for it.

No sooner had Bellamy uttered those words than a fireball twenty meters in diameter descended from the sky.

These petty thugs knew nothing about military operations or warfare, let alone how to assign people to scout the enemy. They were all so engrossed in the banquet that they didn't even realize what was happening until the fireball was right in front of them.

"boom!"

Amidst the deafening roar, some died under the fireball, while others were thrown off the deck by the aftershocks and plunged headfirst into the icy, bone-chilling sea.

Bellamy was a tough guy. When he saw the huge fireball falling overhead, he immediately pushed the young girl next to him out as a shield and sprinted away at top speed. He managed to avoid the center of the explosion and survive, but he was also affected by the aftershocks. The blond youth was sent flying backward and his back slammed heavily against the mast.

Bellamy felt a burning sensation on his back, and his internal organs felt like they were being churned. He sobered up instantly and struggled to his feet. Then he saw a group of sailors appear on the deck like divine soldiers descending from the sky.

Fortunately, this pirate ship was funded by the Donquixote Family. Not only did it resemble the Flamingo in appearance, but its sturdiness also far exceeded that of ordinary ships. It did not break in half; only half of the hull was engulfed in flames.

These experienced naval officers, before the surviving thugs could even react, subdued them and shackled them one by one.

A flintlock pistol was pressed against Bellamy's forehead when Sergeant Xiu En shouted:

"Hands behind your head, squat down!"

Bellamy felt completely confused and couldn't understand what was going on.

The effects of alcohol can make people do things they wouldn't normally dare to do, such as confessing to their crush, beating up a roommate they've disliked for a long time, or slapping their boss who's been giving them a hard time.

Bellamy could almost hear the flattering words of his underlings echoing in his ears. Looking at Sergeant Shuen, who was masked and didn't seem particularly intimidating, Bellamy suddenly felt powerful again. He first pretended to put his hands behind his head to lower Shuen's guard, then suddenly attacked, clenching his fist and slamming it into the man's face, shouting loudly:

"I'm going to be the Pirate King! How could I possibly be arrested by a mere Marine!"

Don't be fooled by how timid Cao Changxiu'en looks in front of Yang Ming. He is a seasoned naval officer who will not be easily attacked by a petty thug.

Sergeant Xiu En tilted his head to the side, dodging the oncoming punch. He grabbed Bellamy's arm with his left hand and pulled up his pants with his right. Then he suddenly turned around and slammed Bellamy to the ground.

"Crack!"

Bellamy's eyes still looked somewhat dazed as the heavy shackles were fastened to his wrists.

At that moment, Bellamy noticed a boy much younger than him walking over. The naval officer who had just given him a hard time immediately stood at attention and saluted, as if this boy was some kind of terrifying being.

Yang Ming originally thought that this pirate ship, which looked very much like the Flamingo, even if Doflamingo himself wasn't in charge, at least had Donquixote Family executives in charge. That's why he used the giant fireball to test the waters. The result was unexpectedly successful, and Yang Ming almost thought that the enemy was setting a trap to lure him in.

Now, the moment Yang Ming saw Bellamy's face, he realized that the Navy had been tricked by Doflamingo.

Even after being captured by the Navy, Bellamy remained defiant and unruly.

Yang Ming grabbed Bellamy by the collar, lifting him up, his eyes turning crimson, the three-tomoe jade pendants spinning rapidly. He said:

"What kind of king did you say you wanted to be?"

When Bellamy met those devilish eyes, she felt completely terrified.

Chapter 52 Thunderous Eight Trigrams

The moment Yang Ming lifted Bellamy up and made eye contact with him, it was as if fate had gripped his throat, and he could no longer utter a sound.

Only those with unwavering willpower or a domineering aura can instantly break free from the illusion cast by the three-tomoe Sharingan.

Bellamy was not a person of strong will to begin with. Coupled with being drunk and suddenly attacked by the navy, his mind was already in chaos. The moment he came into contact with the illusion in the eye, he immediately fell into the boundless illusion and could not distinguish between reality and illusion.

In the final moment before losing consciousness, Bellamy's face showed bitterness, and she thought to herself:

"Pirates with dreams are all idiots and scum!"

Although this naval operation seemed successful, it only resulted in the capture of a group of thugs from the small town of Notis in the North Sea. No Donquixote Family executives were caught, and more than a month was wasted. It was clear that Doflamingo had tricked them badly.

Therefore, even though the naval soldiers were busy cleaning up the battlefield, their overall morale was low, though they didn't show it.

After handing Bellamy over to Momousagi Gion, Yang Ming crossed his arms over his chest, seemingly keeping a close eye on everyone's busy work, but actually paying attention to the system prompts.

"Ding!"

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

A lottery wheel appeared in Yang Ming's vision, but no one around him noticed.

The lottery wheel is divided into two categories: Devil Fruits and Techniques.

Devil Fruits: Dark-Dark Fruit, Flame-Flame Fruit...

Techniques: Navy Six Styles, Fishman Karate, Transvestite Kung Fu...

【Thunderous Eight Trigrams】: A superior attack technique that combines Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki.

As one of Kaido's signature techniques, Thunder Bagua has very strict prerequisites: one must simultaneously master both Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki.

But you should know that on this vast ocean, only the strongest individuals know how to imbue their weapons with Conqueror's Haki.

The more demanding the conditions, the more powerful this unique skill must be.

In fact, the stronger the user of Thunder Bagua, the greater the power of this move. The speed of the attack is like a whirlwind sweeping away fallen leaves, accompanied by thunder and lightning. Even if one has Observation Haki and can predict this attack, there is a high probability that one will not be able to dodge it.

Information about the training and use of the Thunderous Eight Trigrams appeared in Yang Ming's mind one by one.

"Now, all that's missing is Armament Haki, and then I can start training Thunder Bagua."

Yang Ming composed himself and watched as everyone finished cleaning up the battlefield. They scavenged some treasure from the pirate ship that resembled the Flamingo. However, given Bellamy and his gang's endless squandering, it wasn't much. They only had two or three hundred thousand Berries left, which was better than nothing.

After interrogating the surviving thugs, especially Bellamy who, under Yang Ming's illusionary control, had revealed everything, Momousagi Gion reported to Lieutenant General Tsuru with a somewhat unpleasant expression:

"Upon investigation, the group on the ship were not pirates, but rather thugs from the town of Nautilus in the North Sea. There were a total of 127 people, of whom 83 died, 20 were seriously injured, and 24 were slightly injured."

"These people accepted Doflamingo's recruitment more than four months ago and became vassals of the Donquixote Family. They were responsible for disguising themselves as the Donquixote Family and conducting activities in the waters near Minion Island in the North Sea in order to confuse the tracking and surveillance of naval surveillance ships."

Lieutenant General He frowned, lost in thought.

Doflamingo spared no expense in building hundreds of ships that resembled the Flamingo, which he then gifted to his vassal forces to operate in various places. What earth-shattering conspiracy is he hiding?

Vice Admiral Tsuru has fought Doflamingo for many years and knows very well that this is a ruthless tyrant who will not do anything without profit. Doflamingo is willing to spend hundreds of millions of Berries to set up this deceptive scheme, obviously in order to earn even more astonishing wealth, or to obtain something more important than wealth.

So what exactly is it?

The reason why Vice Admiral Tsuru chose to attack the pirate ship suspected to be the Flamingo near Minion Island is because the Donquixote Family originated from the North Blue, and Minion Island is also the place where Doflamingo's brother died. There should be a high probability that the other side has Donquixote Family executives stationed there.

But clearly, Doflamingo anticipated Vice Admiral Tsuru's prediction and completely outmaneuvered her.

Just as Lieutenant General He was puzzled, Yang Ming walked toward Bellamy, who was being held captive.

With a clang, the sword was drawn, its blade pressed against Bellamy's neck. Yang Ming, looking down at him, said:

"If you don't want to die, tell me right now what the Don Quixote family members are up to."

The group of naval soldiers had strange expressions, feeling that Yang Ming's interrogation was too straightforward and lacked any skill.

Sergeant Brannew shrugged at his friend, Sergeant Shuen, and whispered:

"It seems that our captain lacks experience in this area."

Then, Sergeant Brannew chuckled softly, the meaning of which was unclear.
