But for Basil Hawkins, it also served another purpose.
"Scarecrow Cards!"
The Fool card in his hand shimmered with an eerie light, and an unseen connection fell upon Yang Ming and the group of supernovas. Their destinies began to take a different path. Whether it was for better or worse, Basil Hawkins no longer knew. It was better than being killed by this Asura Marshal, wasn't it?
The Scarecrow card is a core ability of Basil Hawkins. By drawing cards, he can influence the psychology, power, situation, and even fate of both allies and enemies within range. The cards are divided into attack cards, support cards, and other cards that affect the situation.
Users with special abilities can draw cards that far exceed their own limits, but they also have to bear high risks.
As the old saying goes, every gift that fate bestows has a price tag attached to it.
Although Basil Hawkins had a vague feeling that even if fate took a turn, their fate wouldn't be much better, what was wrong with just surviving?
Because the effect of Basil Hawkins drawing cards was subtle, Yang Ming didn't feel it very obviously. But strangely enough, his original idea of killing all the supernovas after playing with them had unknowingly changed 180 degrees.
"Perhaps they can become my guinea pigs for experiments!"
After this thought flashed through its mind, the red dragon raised its head and let out a roar.
"hold head high!!!!!"
A deafening roar stirred up boundless waves, causing the pirates lying all around to tumble and roll, leaving a scene of utter chaos.
With a sudden burst of power from his waist, Yang Ming unleashed a powerful dragon tail sweep, its thick tail entwined with Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki. Like a terrifying battering ram sweeping across an army, it sent sprays of blood and flesh flying everywhere it went. Pirates lying on the ground were all smashed to pieces, their bodies shattered by the force of the impact, which then swept forward in a fan shape.
"I'll stop him!"
Just as the supernovas were at a loss, Urouge roared, his body suddenly growing taller, his muscles bulging, those muscles, like countless piles of granite, shimmering like diamonds under the blazing sun. His feet slammed heavily into the ground, creating two deep craters, as if rooted to the spot like ancient trees, his entire body firmly planted on the ground.
Immediately, he bent his knees slightly, focused his energy into his dantian, and channeled his power into his arms, crossing them to protect his forehead. He was about to use his flesh and blood to block the dragon tail that was powerful enough to smash a mountain!
Urouge possesses a terrifying Paramecia-type Devil Fruit ability. As long as he doesn't die instantly, the more damage his enemies inflict on him over a period of time, the stronger Urouge becomes.
After escaping the terrifying crimson dragon breath that Yang Ming had just unleashed, Urki drew nourishment from the battle thanks to his well-honed physique, which temporarily strengthened his body and gave him the confidence to withstand even a casual attack from Yang Ming.
When playing in a team, the worst thing is a group of squishy marksmen and mages without a tank to block and absorb damage.
Seeing Urouge volunteer to be a punching bag on the front line, the remaining supernovas looked at each other, as if a warm current called hope was flowing into their originally desperate hearts.
"Ah-ba-ba-ba..."
Skulachman Ap let out a strange laugh, a bit more color returning to his pale face, and said:
"Being able to fight against top-tier experts, even if we die on the battlefield today, it's still worth singing a song!"
Having said that, Skulachman Ap's arm transformed into a suona (a traditional Chinese wind instrument), and his free fingers landed on the suona, immediately beginning to play an extremely eerie melody.
"Battle music! Meditation!"
This piece of music, seemingly a commemoration of the last battle before death, is sometimes plaintive and mournful, sometimes sounds like countless cockroaches crawling on your body, and sometimes sounds like sharp fingernails rubbing back and forth on a blackboard. The tone is sometimes high-pitched and sometimes low, with almost no musical beauty to speak of. It is not meant for human ears at all, but rather makes people's blood boil and feel extremely uncomfortable.
If it were just that the music was unpleasant, that would be one thing, but the music also had offensive capabilities.
The lingering music poured into Yang Ming's ears, but it was actually starting to damage his body from the inside, trying to cause him some harm.
If he were to transform into an ordinary powerful figure, he might actually fall into his trap!
Those who stand in my way will not last long!
With a roar, the dragon's tail swept Urki away and then came with unparalleled force.
Chapter 336: Will the Supernova Become Fertilizer for the Ten-Tailed Divine Tree?
"Ding!"
The system notification sound followed almost simultaneously with the sound of the dragon's tail hitting Urki.
"Congratulations, host, for reciting a classic line from Dota. You have been awarded one chance to draw a prize. Would you like to start the prize wheel?"
Yang Ming glanced quickly at the lottery wheel that appeared out of the corner of his eye. It had three categories of prizes: hero skins, hero skills, and equipment items.
Hero Skins: Magic Crystal, Spirit Forest, Raging Thunder...
Hero Skills: Time Barrier, Dragon Bloodline, Black Hole...
Equipment and items: Archangel's Sword, Crusader's Shield, Dragon Slayer Sword...
【Heart of the Dragon】: Equipment that greatly increases Strength attribute and maximum health. It comes with the passive skill Heal Wounds, increasing maximum health by 2% per second for health regeneration. The healing effect will be lost when attacked by enemies.
next moment.
Urki felt as if a shooting star was heading his way, not a dragon's tail. His powerful, bulging muscles, capable of lifting a steel warship with one hand, seemed to have no effect at all when his arms were crossed in front of him. His feet, rooted to the ground, plowed two deep furrows behind him. In the end, he still could not resist the enormous force carried by the dragon's tail. After his feet were suddenly lifted off the ground, he was sent flying backward like a tattered garbage bag being flung away.
With a deafening roar, Urki slammed heavily onto a small hill behind him, creating a deep, human-shaped crater. The crater's edges cracked with massive ravines, disrupting the hill's stable structure. As rocks and debris rained down, the entire hill collapsed, burying Urki's figure in a pile of rubble.
Seeing that Urki's fate was hanging in the balance, the other Supernovas didn't have much time to sympathize with him.
Perhaps because Scyllachus Ap's ghostly music had caused Yang Ming some harm, the dragon tail pressed its advantage, unleashing an unstoppable force as it fiercely lashed out at Scyllachus Ap.
"puff!"
Even though he had already wrapped his entire body in considerable Armament Haki, Scyllachus Apoo was still struck as if by lightning when his dragon tail swept across the battlefield. His body flew backward, his face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, mixed with a small amount of internal organ fragments.
Scratchman Apoo usually spends a lot of time honing his Devil Fruit abilities, so his physical skills are far inferior to Urouge's. After smashing through several dilapidated houses, he lay on the ground amidst the rubble, his clothes soaked in blood, and the rise and fall of his chest barely perceptible, clearly indicating that he was not far from death.
Keep in mind that this was just a casual strike from Yang Ming; he hadn't even used his true abilities!
Seeing their companion's miserable state, Basil Hawkins and Trafalgar Law felt a chill run down their spines. They realized that there was a certain gap between them and the top experts on this sea, but they never expected that the gap would be so huge, like heaven and earth, which made them feel extremely desperate.
Even so, the two did not give up hope of survival.
While Yang Ming was focused on others, Basil Hawkins moved with ghostly speed and stealthily approached the red dragon. He hovered in the air as light as a swallow, suddenly spread his ten fingers, each five-inch nail emitting a faint black light, carrying a terrifying curse power, and plunged into the red dragon, attempting to inflict some injury on Yang Ming.
"Ding ding ding! Ding ding ding! Ding ding ding..."
Basil Hawkins' hands flew, his ten fingers repeatedly poking at the palm-sized scales of the red dragon, producing a series of crisp, melodious sounds, accompanied by dazzling bursts of fire.
But what was most disheartening was that Basil Hawkins' all-out attack couldn't even budge a single scale from the red dragon!
Aside from leaving white marks on the dragon scales, Basil Hawkins did nothing else of note.
"How...how could this happen..."
Basil Hawkins stared blankly, utterly unable to comprehend why such a terrifying creature existed in the world.
Could it be that this Marshal Shura's physical body has reached an invincible state, and even the physical body of Kaido of the Beasts back then is far inferior to his?
This shocking idea only flashed through Basil Hawkins' mind for a fleeting moment before everything went black and he lost consciousness instantly.
Just because Yang Ming felt like there was a fly bothering him on his back, he suddenly flicked the dragon tail he had pulled back and sent Basil Hawkins flying.
After crashing heavily to the ground, leaving a deep crater, Basil Hawkins fell into a coma and his demon-slaying form was dispelled.
At the same time, the pirates who had been injected with the substitute Scarecrow by Basil Hawkins all exploded and died.
Not only did the pirates here explode and die, but many unfortunate souls stranded outside, who were injected with the Stand Scarecrow, were also paying the price for Basil Hawkins' fate.
In other words, in that instant, Yang Ming actually took dozens of Basil Hawkins' lives!
Otherwise, Basil Hawkins would probably have died on the spot, rather than simply fainting.
The fall of his companion did not stop Trafalgar Law from moving forward.
A resolute look crossed his brows, and a semi-transparent bubble of domain appeared in the palm of his left hand.
"Roo! Slaughterhouse!"
In the blink of an eye, the translucent bubble of domain encompassed everyone within a radius of two hundred meters, forming a domain dominated by Trafalgar Law.
Trafalgar Law is a Paramecia-type Op-Op Fruit user. He can freely divide and combine any object within a hemispherical space he creates, and he can also teleport. In this domain, Trafalgar Law is the absolute ruler.
This ability was originally intended for surgical procedures; even when used in combat, it is an ability that is difficult to defend against.
The only drawback is that the area it covers is limited. In addition, Trafalgar Law was blown away from the red dragon by the strong wind generated by Conqueror's Haki, which is why it took him a little time to get close to Yang Ming.
Trafalgar Law believed that as long as he could successfully expand his slaughterhouse territory, even someone as powerful as Marshal Shura would become fish on a chopping board, at his mercy.
As the red dragon raised its tail and swept forward again, Trafalgar Law smiled confidently.
"Teleport!"
Within this slaughterhouse realm, this ability, comparable to teleportation, had no spatial or distance limitations. Trafalgar Law was instantly reappeared behind the red dragon, and suddenly drew his sword.
Demon knife! Ghosts cry!
This is a demon sword with a jet-black body, and its size and type are very similar to a nodachi. The scabbard is engraved with small cross-shaped patterns from top to bottom and is bound with a red cord. The guard has a furry protective cover. It is a famous sword whose reputation is in no way inferior to that of a great sword, and it is extremely rare and hard to find in the outside world.
"High-frequency scalpel!"
The high-frequency electric current generated by the Op-Op Fruit coiled around the blade of the demon sword Kiku. Trafalgar Law leaped into the air, his entire body like a roc spreading its wings. In the midst of swirling blue arcs of electricity, the demon sword Kiku in his hand slashed down like a thunderous blade that had punished an evil dragon.
Trafalgar Law was confident that as long as he was in this slaughterhouse territory, even Marshal Shura would be torn to pieces if he was hit by his high-frequency scalpel!
close!
Closer!
As he drew ever closer to the red dragon, Trafalgar Law began to fantasize about his instant fame.
"Ding!"
The instant the blade touched the red dragon's body, a surge of immense force rebounded from the tip of the blade, instantly splitting Trafalgar Law's hand. His arms went numb and weak, almost unable to grip the hilt of the sword. The pain from his hand instantly brought Trafalgar Law's attention back to reality.
When Trafalgar Law's usually expressionless face broke when he saw that the red dragon in front of him was not moving at all and had not been sliced open as he had expected.
"How can it be!"
Although Trafalgar Law's Op-Op Fruit ability means that enemies whose flesh is cut open do not die but remain in a state of separation, it is still a very troublesome and terrifying ability. Since Trafalgar Law formed the Heart Pirates with the remaining members of the Donquixote Family, he has never been defeated, and this move has been consistently effective.
Unexpectedly, we encountered a tough opponent today and suffered a crushing defeat!
The enormous red dragon's form gradually faded, returning to Yang Ming's human form.
With his five fingers forming claws, firmly gripping Trafalgar Law's neck, Yang Ming tilted his head to examine this supernova, who was always known for his composure. Seeing his expression break down was quite a pleasant surprise, and he couldn't help but laugh:
"Has no one ever told you that if Conqueror's Haki is strong enough, it can resist the power of a Devil Fruit?"
Trafalgar Law's pupils dilated suddenly. Clearly, this was a secret passed down among top-tier powerhouses, something that even Doflamingo had never taught him!
Yang Ming casually tossed the unconscious Trafalgar Law to the ground, and smiled as he looked at the mess.
"Now that we've destroyed your alliance of troublemakers, we must turn trash into treasure, and your abilities must be put to my use."
"Come forth, Ten-Tailed Divine Tree!"
Yang Ming clapped his hands.
