One Piece meme: Starting with eight extraordinary skills

Boa Hancock pursed her cherry lips, feeling the twisted ankle that Yang Ming had just grabbed, with a red handprint still visible on it, and felt extremely aggrieved.

However, when she looked up at the tall and imposing figure in front of her, a strange feeling inexplicably rose in her heart.

In modern medicine, there is a condition called Stockholm syndrome, which refers to a psychological phenomenon where victims develop feelings for their perpetrators, even going so far as to help them.

The starkly contrasting treatment she received, along with the subtle influence of Yang Ming's Conqueror's Haki, left an indelible mark on Boa Hancock's heart.

Of course, it would be absurd to say that Boa Hancock fell in love with Yang Ming so quickly because of this.

Nowadays, Boa Hancock clearly hates Yang Ming more than she likes him.

Boa Hancock, who was gentle on the outside but tough on the inside, would not give in so easily. She pressed her two delicate hands hard on the steel floor and her legs whipped up a fierce gust of wind. She showed no sign of backing down and remained just as fierce even with a sprained ankle.

"Big fragrant feet!"

Its legs swirled and danced, affecting a radius of five meters.

Yang Ming shook his head and smiled as he stepped out of Boa Hancock's attack range, saying:

“Boa Hancock, I can overlook your attacks on my men and your harm to my cheap father-in-law, but you have to cooperate with my work honestly and tell me the truth about who sent you to assassinate Cobra.”

"No matter what, what matters is our future, not the past!"

Although Yang Ming had a vague suspicion in his mind, he had offended quite a few people, both openly and secretly, over the years. It was hard to say whether there would be unexpected enemies trying to trip him up behind his back. Therefore, he needed to get a reply from Boa Hancock herself to confirm it.

Boa Hancock stopped her attack, standing there panting, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes flickering. She seemed to have calmed down from her inexplicable anger, and reason had regained its advantage. She was beginning to weigh the pros and cons and decide what to do.

Chapter 306 The waters here are deep; you can't handle them.

"Ding!"

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

The prizes in the lottery wheel are divided into two types: racial talents and skills.

Racial Traits: Escape Expert, Heroic Spirit, Resilience...

Skills: Charge, Rallying Shout, Execution...

【Thorn Aura】: Passive skill, reflects 30% of the damage dealt to enemy melee units.

While keeping an eye on his lottery winnings, Yang Ming waited patiently for Boa Hancock's reply.

He believed that Boa Hancock was a smart person who knew how to weigh the pros and cons.

Because Yang Ming had twisted Boa Hancock's ankle, she stood awkwardly at the other end, her ankle bearing the imprint of Yang Ming's five fingers. A sharp pain emanated from her ankle from time to time, causing Boa Hancock to gasp. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed, and her dreamy phoenix eyes glistened with tears, clearly from the pain.

Boa Hancock glared at Yang Ming with a mixture of shyness and anger, but reason prevailed again, suppressing her temper, and she carefully considered Yang Ming's suggestion.

It must be said that the fact that this Shura general could disregard her petrification of soldiers and assassination of Cobra was somewhat unexpected for Boa Hancock.

After all, in Boa Hancock's memory, this Shura Admiral had never given any pirate a kind look since his debut.

For a fleeting moment, Boa Hancock almost thought her charm had worked again, and that the Shura general was only offering such lenient terms because he was attracted to her beauty.

However, the pain in her ankle from time to time, and the indifferent look in Yang Ming's scarlet eyes that Boa Hancock noticed, made her heart sink. She knew that if she said no, she would be met with a merciless attack from this Shura General.

It was one thing for her to suffer alone, but Boa Hancock was more worried about the safety of her sisters and the other members of the Kuja Pirates, and even the survival of the other citizens of Amazon Lily.

According to Boa Hancock, any pirate who falls into the hands of this Shura Admiral either dies a horrible death on the battlefield or is imprisoned in the deep sea prison.

The mere thought of the words "Deep Sea Prison" sent a chill down even through the fearless Empress.

Since Yang Ming set up the Philosopher's Stone alchemy array in the Deep Sea Prison, the prisoners who were imprisoned there afterward have basically disappeared without a trace, and these people have never been seen in the world again.

Prisoners are continuously transported from all over the world to the deep-sea prison, but this prison is like a bottomless pit, accepting no matter how many people come.

Rumors about a deep-sea prison are rampant on the ocean.

Some say that a demon lives in the deep-sea prison, which devours the most sinful prisoners.

Some people say that the deep-sea prison is short of prisoners because the world government's research institutions are using these prisoners as test subjects to develop a new type of weapon.

Everyone has their own version of the truth, and with so many conflicting opinions, no one can definitively say what's right.

As for those who truly know the inside story, they have basically been recruited by Yang Ming onto the same pirate ship, receiving generous dividends every year, and they would never reveal such a secret.

Boa Hancock pursed her cherry-like lips tightly; to say that she didn't regret taking on this mission would be self-deception.

"Since the Five Elders didn't tell the truth when they assigned the mission, causing me to offend General Shura, they were the first to act unjustly, so don't blame me for being unjust!"

With this thought flashing through her mind, Boa Hancock had already made up her mind. She took a deep breath, and the cheongsam clinging to her body bounced up and down in a striking arc.

"May I ask one last question, General Shura, do you truly not hold my past actions against me?"

"Of course!"

Having received Yang Ming's final assurance, Boa Hancock exhaled a breath of stale air and said:

"

To be honest, the reason I came to assassinate the King of Alabasta was because the Five Elders used their title as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea to coerce me. Left with no other choice, I had no choice but to submit.

Confirming this information from Boa Hancock verified Yang Ming's previous conjecture, and a cold glint flashed in Yang Ming's eyes.

The cold glint appeared quickly and disappeared just as fast. Even Boa Hancock, who had been paying close attention to Yang Ming's subtle expressions, didn't notice anything amiss.

"All teammates, regroup!"

With Yang Ming's command, the group of naval soldiers who were fighting fiercely on the Nine Serpents Ship obeyed orders without question. Even though some of them were already bloodthirsty, they were still able to stop what they were doing as quickly as possible and return to the steel warship. They lined up neatly according to past training, forming a square formation, and stood solemnly behind Yang Ming.

From high-ranking officers like Momousagi and Gion to ordinary privates, every single one of them was stained with blood, some of their own and some of their enemies'.

Regardless of their injuries, without exception, they all stood ramrod straight, like sharp spears.

A sense of solemnity and reverence washed over her, greatly shocking Boa Hancock.

Compared to this disciplined army, Boa Hancock's Kuja Pirates were quite pathetic. To call them a disorganized mess would be an understatement. The seriously wounded sat helplessly on the deck, or were helped up by the lightly wounded.

Some pirates, blinded by rage, continued firing arrows despite seeing the Navy retreating, their arrows coated in Armament Haki, without any regard for the situation.

Even Boa Hancock's two best friends, whom she always relied on, weren't much better off.

The Zoan-type Devil Fruits granted Boa Sandersonia and Boa Marigold powerful physiques, but they also inherited the brutality and cold-bloodedness of animal instincts, making it difficult for them to stop once they went berserk.

Fortunately, although Momousagi Gion is not a Vice Admiral of the Navy Headquarters known for her absolute strength, she has mastered the Six Styles of the Navy under the guidance of Vice Admiral Tsuru over the years. With the flexibility and agility unique to women, she quickly injured the two women and retreated as swiftly as the wind, without being affected in the slightest.

Boa Sandersonia and Boa Marigold, both covered in blood, stood on either side of Boa Hancock, panting heavily, and said in muffled voices:

"Boss, what's going on now?"

"Yeah, boss, I haven't had my fill of fighting yet!"

In just a short while, the shallow wounds on Boa Sandersonia and Boa Marigold had begun to scab over, stopping the continuous bleeding, demonstrating the remarkable self-healing ability of Zoan-type Devil Fruits.

Comparing goods will only lead to waste; comparing people will only make you miserable.

If it weren't for this beautiful naval force before her, Boa Hancock might still be immersed in the glorious past of the Kuja Pirates and taking pride in it.

But now, after witnessing the discipline of this navy firsthand, Boa Hancock felt a chill run down her spine, belatedly realizing that accepting the mission from the Five Elders was tantamount to courting death.

Even without the ruthless Admiral Shura stationed here, the unity of this navy alone would be enough to wipe the Kuja Pirates off the seas.

At that time, perhaps only a handful of cadres, such as the Boa Hancock sisters, will be able to survive this calamity.

Thinking of this, Boa Hancock felt a little less guilty, but she also secretly resented those shameless old men, the Five Elders.

Just as Boa Hancock was pondering, she suddenly saw Yang Ming walk towards the petrified soldiers and put a hand on them.

Seeing this, perhaps because the third sister, Boa Marigold, was all brawn and no brains, or perhaps because she was still furious after her battle with Momousagi Gion, she let out a strange, grating laugh.

"What is this Asura general planning to do?"

"Could it be that he doesn't know that under the Big Sister's Love-Love Fruit power, anyone petrified by her is as if cursed and can never return to normal?"

Upon hearing this, Boa Hancock glared at her foolish sister, telling her to shut up so as not to sway the Great General Shura's mind.

The third sister, Boa Marigold, seemed a little confused. She scratched the back of her head, wondering why her eldest sister was glaring at her. Had she said something wrong?

That’s right!

Seeing that her foolish sister still didn't seem to understand the situation, Boa Hancock felt quite tired and had a headache.

But at the same time, Boa Hancock was also curious about what Yang Ming was trying to do.

She didn't think Yang Ming would be foolish enough to believe he could undo the petrification of these soldiers.

After all, Boa Hancock had been famous for many years. Her Devil Fruit abilities and signature skills had been thoroughly investigated by the Navy and recorded in a special archive.

"Perhaps this Asura general is mourning his comrades-in-arms and wants to find a burial place for them so that they can rest in peace?"

Momousagi Gion, Tina, and the others kept glancing at Boa Hancock with hostile eyes.

The Boa Hancock sisters naturally overheard the conversation between them.

To Boa Marigold's ridiculous statement, Momousagi Gion could only offer a cold laugh, saying:

"How ignorant you are!"

"What did you say?"

Boa Marigold was clearly still angry, and glared at her fiercely.

The two locked eyes, the tension palpable.

Just then, Yang Ming put his hand on one of the petrified soldiers.

The next moment, a miracle happened.

Chapter 307 What is considered normal is merely a standard set by the majority.

[Purify]: Removes all crowd control and debuff effects from the user, and if a crowd control effect is applied again within the next 3 seconds, the duration of the new effect will be reduced by 65%.

This skill, which was extracted a long time ago, has become increasingly useful to Yang Ming as he grows stronger.

Now, as Yang Ming releases his purification, the petrified soldiers, who were originally turned into sculptures, have their petrified layers peeling off little by little, revealing the flesh and blood underneath. A living human being reappears in everyone's sight.

Momousagi Gion crossed her arms and gave Boa Marigold a cold laugh:

"See? Mere petrochemicals are nothing to the captain."

The two sisters, Boa Marigold and Boa Sandasonia, had uncertain expressions, clearly stunned by what they were seeing.

But Boa Sandasonia, the third sister, lived up to her reputation of being all brawn and no brains. Even with irrefutable facts before her, she remained stubbornly defiant, saying:
