Having such a loyal and righteous king, even if the king is not very bright, Vasco da Gama will do his best to assist him even if he goes bald!
I, Vasco da Gama, am willing to serve Your Majesty through fire and water for generations to come!
Yang Ming hadn't expected such a good deal as buy one get one free, so he naturally accepted it with a smile.
Whether it's a nominal title or a real one, once it falls into Yang Ming's hands, it will naturally have its moment to shine.
Yang Ming arranged for people to escort the Riku clan to a warship for rest and recuperation, while also noticing the system notification.
"Ding!"
"Congratulations, host, for reciting a classic line from Honor of Kings. You have been awarded one chance to draw a prize. Would you like to start the prize wheel?"
A lottery wheel slowly appeared in my field of vision, displaying three categories of prizes: hero skins, runes, and hero skills.
Hero Skins: Wuling Immortal Lord, Phoenix Seeking Phoenix, Flying Balance...
Inscriptions: Hunting, Eagle Eye, Mutation...
Hero Skills: Dragon's Roar, Thunderous Dragon, Word of Power Barrier...
【One Against a Thousand】: Passive skill. When moving towards the enemy, movement speed is increased by 20%, and by 2% for every 100 meters moved. This lasts up to a maximum distance of 2000 meters when the user enters a charging stance, and normal attacks will cause a powerful knockback effect.
a few days later.
The sky was cloudless and clear.
A newsbird, carrying a satchel, traveled a long way and dropped a newspaper precisely into the palace on the King's Heights.
Baby-5, dressed in a maid outfit, stood awkwardly beside the blond youth, presenting him with a newspaper in both hands.
Doflamingo looked gloomy and casually glanced at the newspaper.
King Dold III of Riku and King Elizabello II issued a joint statement announcing their recommendation of a naval officer to become the Guardian of the Kingdom!
"According to reporters, in the past eight hundred years, there has never been a naval commander or petty officer who held concurrent positions outside the naval headquarters. Now, Captain Yang Ming, who is only eight years old, is serving as the guardian of both the Kingdom of Dressrosa and the Kingdom of Prodense. Does this mean that the naval headquarters intends to extend its influence to the New World and plan for the navy's future in the New World?"
Will this move by the Navy gradually become the norm?
"If nations were to compete to appoint naval commanders and officers as guardians of their kingdoms, could this improve their security levels, effectively combat crime, and significantly reduce their crime rates?"
"The small step taken by Captain Yang Ming may be a giant leap for the Navy Headquarters. It has profound implications and is worth pondering by everyone."
"To this end, the president of World Economic News Agency will personally visit the Naval Headquarters this Friday to invite Fleet Admiral Sengoku to do an interview program to learn more about the Naval Headquarters' strategic moves."
The blond youth crumpled the newspaper into powder and let it drift away into the air.
Doflamingo's forehead veins bulged, twisting into a grid pattern, and he exuded a chilling aura.
Baby-5's shoulders trembled slightly, his head lowered, not daring to look directly at the young master, feeling that the blond youth in front of him had become extremely unfamiliar.
Since his rise from the North Blue, Doflamingo has had a smooth and successful career, and has never experienced any major setbacks.
However, in recent days, the Plum Blossom Legion and the Square Legion have been destroyed in their entirety, and several important cadres who were regarded as family members have fallen one after another. In addition, Yang Ming's sabotage some time ago has made the people of Dressrosa restless. Although the people dare not speak out, the seeds of doubt have been sown in their hearts, shaking the foundation of the Donquixote family's rule.
"Damn the navy!"
"How come I didn't realize back then that this kid actually had the strength to threaten me?"
Yang Ming saved the Riku clan in the name of justice. His seemingly ordinary move won the favor of the Navy Headquarters and the rulers of various countries.
After all, the rulers of the various countries put themselves in each other's shoes. None of them knew when they would end up like King Riku, displaced and exiled. Naturally, they hoped that someone would step forward to uphold justice.
The World Government remained silent, the Five Elders remained silent, and the Navy remained silent.
But it was only at this moment that Yang Ming stepped forward, and he became a hero in everyone's eyes!
His hero is my enemy!
The better Yang Ming's career progressed, the stronger Doflamingo's hatred became!
"Yang Ming is a young man of great intelligence and unfathomable strength. Even Edward Welb, whom I invited to fight last time, was killed by him."
"The only eyewitness to that battle was old man Zepha. Even Vergo couldn't find out the details of the battle. Based on the information I currently have about Yang Ming, he is skilled in using fire-based slashes. He simply cannot kill Edward Welb with that alone, unless he has some kind of hidden killing move!"
Doflamingo always prefers to plan before acting, but now he finds Yang Ming troublesome and doesn't know who to ask to teach this arrogant brat a lesson.
Baby-5, observing the young man's expression, tiptoed behind him and gently massaged his temples with her slender fingers.
Doflamingo was in a state of turmoil, and casually swung his crossed legs.
Let me think about it carefully.
"Could I ask Kaido of the Beasts to secretly eliminate Yang Ming for me?"
"Recently, the Beasts Pirates have been searching everywhere for the whereabouts of Lee Sin, the Lord of the Night. Kaido of the Beasts is busy running around and won't pay any attention to my plea for help as his partner."
"In the Charlotte family, Snag used to be my friend. He often used my connections in the underworld to find beautiful women from all over the world. If we can get this powerful person to help, whether we succeed or fail, it will make Yang Ming and the Bigo Pirates turn against each other. Moreover, the Charlotte family children are known for being a loving family. Once Yang Ming offends one of them, he will definitely be hated by the others!"
Once Doflamingo made up his mind, he picked up the Den Den Mushi.
At this time, Yang Ming, whom Doflamingo had been longing for, had already left the Kingdom of Dressrosa and arrived in the Kingdom of Prodines in the nearby sea.
Yang Ming naturally remembered that he wanted to use the identity of the pirate Lee Sin to settle scores with Doflamingo.
However, if Yang Ming and the pirate Lee Sin appeared in the Dressrosa Kingdom at the same time, it would likely attract unwarranted speculation from outsiders.
Therefore, Yang Ming used the invitation of King Elizabeth II to visit the Kingdom of Prodense and act as an alibi.
The Kingdom of Prodens is a small country with a sausage-shaped geography. It is mountainous with only a narrow plain along the coast, which makes agriculture and cash crops underdeveloped. It relies entirely on purchasing grain from other countries for transportation and supplies.
Good fortune and misfortune are intertwined; after the worst comes the best.
The Kingdom of Prodines possesses abundant high-quality mineral resources, which are not only easy to mine but also produce swords that are superior to those of other countries, making the smelting and forging industry in the region exceptionally developed.
To launch an uprising against Lord Im, we need not only the support of major powers, but also a strong supply of weapons and logistics!
After learning about the actual situation here, Yang Ming already had the idea of turning this place into an arms factory.
Chapter 85 What this world needs are not heroes, but experts.
Navy Headquarters.
With the arrival of the new year, the naval academy has enrolled another batch of students, and the parade ground is full of youthful and energetic figures.
Chief Instructor Zefa, holding a newspaper in one hand, carefully read about Yang Ming's recent actions in the New World. A slight smile unconsciously crept onto his lips. He then roared at the students training diligently on the field:
"Sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in war!"
"Look at your senior Yang Ming from the previous year. He's already leading his own army and making a name for himself in the new world. If you want to become heroes like him, you have to train hard!"
Upon hearing this, the eyes of the group of young trainees carrying tortoise shells lit up, and even the fatigue from their daily training seemed to vanish.
In the Navy Headquarters, who doesn't know the deeds of Captain Yang Ming?
Upon his debut, he defeated the Tea Beard Pirates and the Silver Fox Pirates, then brutally beat CP9, even killing the CP9 commander. Later, he single-handedly wiped out the Donquixote Family's Diamond Army, and rescued Chief Instructor Zephyr from Edward Welb's blade, thwarting Doflamingo's plot.
In particular, Yang Ming has demonstrated justice since his debut, defending his honor with his blood. His honor is to protect the people!
This concept is now deeply ingrained and has gained the approval of many naval officers.
Without a doubt, Yang Ming has become an idol worshipped by the new generation of naval personnel!
The trainees stopped training and, ignoring the criticism from Chief Instructor Zefa, surrounded him.
"Teacher Zephyr, what did Senior Yang Ming do in the New World?"
Normally, if Chief Instructor Zefa saw these brats daring to slack off during their busy schedule, he would have already given them a good beating with his iron fist.
Chief Instructor Zefa was in a great mood today; even the crow's feet around his eyes had smoothed out. He said:
"The Kingdom of Dressrosa and the Kingdom of Prodin jointly recommended Yang Ming to become the Kingdom Guardian. Perhaps you do not quite understand the deeper meaning behind Yang Ming's move, but I will just give you an example of one benefit and you will understand."
"The Navy has countless branches, distributed across the four seas and various islands along the Grand Line. These branches have anywhere from 150 to tens of thousands of members and are the most important armed force for maintaining world peace."
"However, such a large number of naval soldiers will put a great burden on the Navy Headquarters. Logistics, daily maintenance, soldier training, command and dispatch, and supply distribution will all involve a series of problems."
"However, if Yang Ming were to become the guardian of the kingdom and train a fierce kingdom guard force according to the training standards of the navy, and this kingdom guard force were to be responsible for providing soldiers, salaries, supplies and other necessities, it would greatly reduce the burden on the navy headquarters."
"At the same time, this well-trained royal guard, trained using naval methods, will be able to coordinate seamlessly with the naval fleets patrolling the surrounding waters to vigorously combat bandits and pirates within their patrol range, greatly reducing the country's crime rate!"
"Without a doubt, this is a groundbreaking feat!"
Chief Instructor Zefa recounted the story in detail, with an expression of pride on his face.
The trainees were surprised to find so many details behind the scenes, and they all showed expressions of admiration.
A teenager with a punk hairstyle clenched his fists, his face filled with excitement:
"As expected of Senior Yang Ming!"
"Binz, keep your voice down."
Beside the boy, a girl with long, wavy, sea-blue hair tried her best to appear calm, but the glint in her beautiful eyes seemed to betray the turmoil in her heart.
Binz turned to look at his companions. Although everyone was wearing the same naval training uniform, some people looked like monkeys in suits, while others were naturally beautiful even without makeup. This girl was clearly the latter.
With willow-leaf eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, and a pure face, the girl resembled a girl next door, exuding a delicate and refined charm. Her pure white naval training uniform was well-tailored, outlining her precocious and slender figure. Her waist was so slender that one could almost encircle it, her chest was beginning to develop, and her legs were long and firm. One could foresee that she would grow into a beautiful woman.
Binz curled his lip, his face full of dissatisfaction, and said:
“Aien, don’t think I don’t know that you’ve covered your dorm walls with posters of Senior Yang Ming, and even your cushions are made of Senior Yang Ming’s figurine.”
With each word Binz spoke, Ian's pretty face flushed even more.
As soon as Binz finished speaking, Ian raised her two small fists and slapped them straight at his face.
"Binz, are you trying to die?"
Has anyone ever told you that if you don't speak, no one will think you're mute?
Watching the trainees play around, Chief Instructor Zephyr smiled kindly, then looked towards the Naval Headquarters building, his eyes filled with profound thoughts.
Chief Instructor Zephyr could see the deeper meaning behind Yang Ming's move, and as the highest-ranking commander of the navy, Fleet Admiral Sengoku could naturally see it as well, and even see further.
Fleet Admiral Sengoku casually tossed the newspaper to his pet goat, letting it eat it, before looking at Admiral Borsalino, sitting in front of him with a rather troubled expression.
After his battle with Lee Sin, the Lord of the Night, Admiral Borsalino was left with a scar on his face that has not yet fully healed, making him look like a ferocious centipede.
Admiral Borsalino lowered his head, took a sip of tea, and looked down at the tea leaves standing upright in the cup, saying:
"Marshal, it is no longer appropriate for me to make public appearances as a Navy Admiral, otherwise it would damage the image of the Navy. I think Yang Ming, this young hero, has done a good job in this regard. It would be better to let me retire early and serve as the guardian of a certain country, so that I can continue to shine for the rest of my life."
The Warring States Marshal rubbed his forehead and sighed:
"You are a Marine Admiral, how can you compare yourself to a junior?"
