One Piece meme: Starting with eight extraordinary skills

Hana no Hyōgor immediately recognized the Kozuki Sukiyaki and was overjoyed. He immediately shouted:

"Brothers, our savior has arrived!"

Upon hearing this, the miners, who were already on the verge of collapse, seemed to be injected with new energy, unleashing unimaginable fighting power.

When Kozuki Sukiyaki led the rebel army to the scene, the miners were either dead or maimed. Of the thousands of miners, only a few dozen remained to put up a stubborn resistance. More than half of the 500-plus Beast Pirates were also killed, and the rest were mostly wounded.

As for Bucky the Clown, he knew he had completed his mission as soon as Kozuki Sukiyaki appeared, and quietly left the stage, disappearing without a trace.

"Rebel army?"

Babanuki glanced at the Kozuki Sukiyaki, secretly annoyed, and roared:

"You rebels have some nerve!"

With Armament Haki wrapping around his arms, Babanuki, in a fit of rage, unleashed two hundred percent of his strength, sending Hana no Hyogoro flying with a single punch.

But before he could make any further moves, a beam of lightning suddenly streaked towards him from afar.

Babanuki's eyes widened in shock as he realized it was a coin!

In a panic, Babanuki crossed his arms to protect his forehead, trying to block the electromagnetic cannon attack.

Unfortunately, the power of this electromagnetic cannon exceeded his expectations!

"boom!"

A hole was ripped through both arms, and the coin, undeterred, pierced Babanuki's forehead, taking away all his life force.

When Babanuki lay in a pool of blood, his face was frozen in disbelief, clearly not expecting that he would ultimately die from a coin.

Hana no Hyogoro clutched his chest and struggled to his feet.

Despite feeling several broken ribs and even internal organ damage, Hana no Hyogoro did not show any pain until he saw the wreckage on the ground and that almost all of his familiar comrades were dead. Hana no Hyogoro knelt down, his hands on the ground, his face full of pain.

A series of footsteps approached, accompanied by a deep voice:

"Even if the pain is unbearable, please do not run away from it, and try to live on."

Chapter 244 People who play tactics are all dirty-minded.

"You are……"

Hana no Hyōgor suddenly looked up and saw a handsome young man dressed in a pure white naval uniform, wearing a heavy naval cloak. The epaulets on his shoulders, representing the admiral of the Navy Headquarters, shone brightly in the winter afterglow, making the young man even more extraordinary.

When his gaze settled on the boy's epaulets, Hana no Hyōgor's pupils involuntarily contracted.

Clearly, with the old man's knowledge, he recognized the person in front of him.

Hana no Hyōgor stood up shakily, quickly bowed to Yang Ming, and said:

"Forgive my poor eyesight, but I never imagined that after spending so many years in this dark and gloomy quarry, such a young and promising Admiral as you would emerge from the outside world."

"I have a request, I hope you can personally avenge those innocent victims!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Ming's lips curled into a slight smile.

At the same time, a system notification rang in Yang Ming's ears.

"Ding!"

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

Yang Ming glanced at the lottery wheel when he had a moment to spare. The prizes were categorized into three types: summoning characters, blood demon techniques, and breathing techniques.

Summoned characters: Kibutsuji Muzan, Suzamaru, Hand Demon...

Blood Demon Arts: Blood Bewitchment, Line Prison, Eye-Killing Corpse ⒖ (This last part is a nonsensical string of characters and doesn't translate directly.)

Breathing techniques: Sun Breathing, Water Breathing, Flame Breathing...

【Sun Breathing】: The originator of breathing techniques, possessing incredible power.

Many of the prisoners held in the quarry were supporters of the Kozuki family and staunch opponents of the Beasts Pirates and Orochi.

However, once these people are successfully released, they will not only hinder Yang Ming's plan to reform Wano Country, but will also become a major obstacle to this plan.

That's why Yang Ming planned this whole thing.

Most of the prisoners in the quarry were killed or wounded, leaving only a small group. These people will become Yang Ming's staunch supporters. At the same time, because their power has been greatly reduced, they will not be able to hinder the plan to reform the country.

Yang Ming deliberately spared Hana no Hyōgoro's life, intentionally making him a role model, not a symbolic figure opposing the Beasts Pirates and Kurozumi Orochi, but a symbolic figure of the successful transformation of the New World Co-Prosperity Sphere.

Now, due to the mass deaths of miners, Hyogoro Hana's anger towards the Beast Pirates and Orochi has reached its peak.

He probably never dreamed that the culprit behind all this was the young general in front of him.

All I can say is that people who rely on tactics are inherently corrupt.

"Old man, please rise, there's no need for such formalities."

"The Beasts Pirates have committed countless evil deeds, and we, the righteous, will certainly not stand idly by!"

Yang Ming lifted Hana no Hyōgoro up with both hands, making the latter feel as if he were bathed in a spring breeze, and he was immediately moved to tears.

Just as Hana no Hyōgoro was about to say a few kind words, he suddenly felt a gentle breeze on his face, and there was no sign of the young general in front of him.

"Whoosh!"

A whooshing sound cut through the air.

Hana no Hyōgor's pupils contracted, shrinking to the size of needles.

What did he see?

Suddenly, Yang Mingfei appeared in front of the Nine Ninjas and the Ten Demons. It was impossible to see when he drew his sword or when he sheathed it. All that could be seen was a blur of sword light enveloping the Nine Ninjas and the Ten Demons.

"Atomic Slash!"

With a series of sounds of blades piercing flesh, the body covered in powerful Armament Haki was as thin and fragile as paper, easily sliced ​​into countless pieces by the blades.

Hana no Hyogoro was deeply impressed by the two numbered members, the Nine Ninjas and the Ten Demons, as they were no weaker than Babanuki.

It was precisely because of the two members' indiscriminate killing that thousands of miners were no match for them and suffered heavy losses in a short period of time.

It can be said that nearly half of the miners died tragically at the hands of the Nine Ninjas and the Ten Demons.

Yet this formidable opponent could not even make a single round under the young general's blade before meeting his end on the spot!

Horror!

Hana no Hyogoro felt a chill run down his spine and his mouth go dry.

For Yang Ming, killing the Nine Ninjas and the Ten Demons was merely an appetizer, not even a warm-up.

Without the leadership of the Nine Ninja and the Ten Demons, the rest of the pirates are even less of a threat.

Yang Ming raised his right hand, and a huge fireball condensed in his palm. It was larger than before, with a diameter of fifty meters, and flew out like a small meteor.

Wherever the fireball passed, all the pirates were burned to ashes, leaving not even a trace of ashes.

"Gulu!"

At this moment, not only the prisoners like Hana no Hyōgorō, but even the rebels like Kozuki Sukiyaki stopped what they were doing and turned to look at the figure standing in the sea of ​​fire.

Endless flames prostrated themselves at his feet, as if paying homage to the great King of Flames.

On his other side, hundreds of pirates had long since vanished into thin air, with only the scorched marks on the ground seemingly still proving that they had ever existed.

Kozuki Sukiyaki was startled. Some of the little thoughts that shouldn't have been in her mind seemed to be burned away completely with this fire. She no longer dared to have any wild thoughts and wholeheartedly followed Yang Ming.

Yang Ming took in all the thoughts and intentions of the crowd.

Yang Ming wanted to reform Wano Country, and Kozuki Sukiyaki, as the former shogun of Wano Country, was naturally unwilling and somewhat resistant. He took advantage of today's event to dispel the thoughts that Yang Ming should not have.

After the battle, the rebels cleaned up the battlefield, checked for any pirates who had been missed, and bandaged the wounds of the survivors.

This quarry in Wano Country is of great significance. It is an open-pit quarry with astonishing ore reserves. Once New Hope Factory acquires this quarry, it will certainly be able to further expand its business scope and contribute to Yang Ming's power.

Meanwhile, the Iron Man Mark II armor requires many high-level manufacturing materials, which Caesar Clown is currently unable to mass-produce. Only by providing him with a large quantity of raw materials for research can production be increased, and this quarry happens to be the perfect solution to the urgent problem.

Yang Ming dispatched a naval force to the quarry to completely occupy the area and prevent it from being seized by other forces.

The New Hope factory immediately dispatched engineers to survey the terrain and collect raw data on the quarry. Once everything was ready, they recruited a large number of miners to start mining.

At that time, it will likely solve the employment problem for a large number of ordinary people at the bottom of society.

From this perspective alone, one can see the enormous gap between Yang Ming and Kaido of the Beasts.

Kaido of the Beasts sent all the potential threats to the quarry for mining, which can be considered a way to make use of waste.

However, these miners are passive, inefficient, and produce little output. Moreover, they require constant guarding by personnel to prevent a miner rebellion, which not only ties up manpower but also exacerbates social conflicts.

Yang Ming's approach was completely different.

He uses industrial development to lead the people toward common prosperity, enabling them to become wealthy through hard work and achieve a better life, thereby gaining a sense of happiness.

Yang Ming has come this far step by step in the Kingdom of Dressrosa, the Kingdom of Prodens, the Sky Island, Water Seven, and the Flower Kingdom.

Many people may not understand his actions, or even think that his actions are too old-fashioned and immature, and that it would be better to just fight and kill.

It was precisely through implementing this "benevolent governance" that Yang Ming was able to lay a solid foundation and at the same time unite the hearts of his generals.

The naval soldiers working under Yang Ming were not cold, hard data, nor were they NPCs in a game; they were living, breathing people.

Human nature is to yearn for a better life. Most of these naval soldiers come from relatively poor families, otherwise they would not have joined the army. When they see that people can live a decent life in Yang Ming's territory, these naval soldiers will naturally arrange for their families to move to Yang Ming's territory so that they can live a good life and no longer have to live in fear.

Ordinary people don't have lofty ambitions or great aspirations. They all know that their abilities are limited and what they hope for is for their families to be safe and sound.

Within Yang Ming's sphere of influence, almost all criminals, such as bandits, mafia members, pirates, and human traffickers, have disappeared. Moreover, the New Hope Factory, the Dinosaur Chamber of Commerce, and the Carrera Company can provide a large number of job opportunities with salaries much higher than ordinary jobs, and there are also schools specifically for the children of workers.

This kind of life is simply unheard of elsewhere!

In this way, loyalty will naturally be cultivated!

If you don't accumulate steps, you can't reach a thousand miles.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

In the areas governed by Yang Ming, the people lived peaceful and prosperous lives, without fear of criminal gangs, and with dignity, which gradually formed a powerful force.

Sure enough, not long after Yang Ming and the rebel army captured the quarry, Da Zheng, known as "Blood Character" in the Tuwan area, led more than two hundred guards under his command to join them.

Omasa, with a large belly and wearing an open-fronted kimono that revealed his broad chest, arrived at the naval base and hurriedly handed a letter to the soldier blocking his way, smiling obsequiously:

"Sir, I have come to pledge allegiance to General Shura. Please pass on this letter to him."
