One Piece Talent System Chapter 227-229

Happy Street.

Located in the central luxury hall, there are some high-end sofas, tables, and chairs, and at the forefront is a delicate stage.

This is the most central place of Happy Street. Various beautiful women will take turns to perform on stage. If she is fancied by someone, she can be taken away after spending a sum of money.

Naturally.

This only happens within the Happy Street area.

In a corner of the hall, Ross was sitting there in a very lazy position against the soft sofa, holding a glass of wine and looking at the dancers on the stage.

"I didn't expect you to come here, it was my mistake to not welcome you, Mr. Ross."

In the rear, a beautiful woman wearing a white hat came slowly and sat opposite to Ross, smiling gently at Ross.

Ross's eyes shifted from the dancer to her, and after only one look, he recognized the identity of the other party, Stussy West, Queen of the Happy Street.

Naturally.

This is only one of her identities, and the other is the member of Cipher Pole, the highest level of World Government intelligence.

Apart from being powerful enough to protect Tenryubito, CP0's hidden members also involved in many roles in the dark Underground world and the organization itself is enormous.

"You know me?"

Ross took a sip of wine and asked plainly.

Stussy smiled and said, "I read about your deeds in the newspaper that I got a few hours ago. Nobody expected you to come out of Impel Down and do something so earth-shaking. Now I'm afraid that even the 'Four Emperors' will be shocked."

Speaking of this, she paused a little, and smiled lightly: "Right, forgot to introduce myself, I am the owner of Happy Street, you call me Stussy."

"That is really disrespectful, to call someone's name directly like that."

Ross had nothing to do at this point so he doesn't mind playing with the CP0 undercover agent to see what tricks she could make.

Stussy grinned slightly and looked like Princess, she looked like an aristocrat whose identity as a hidden CP0 membership could not be seen from the surface alone.

"I can't afford the word "disrespect". You are now the Fifth Emperor of the New World. It is my pleasure to be here."

With a faint smile, she turned to the dancer on the stage and said, "Ruth is one of our trump cards. How do you like her? How many points would you give her?"

Ross is also looking at the stage.

The dancer had blonde hair, fair skin, like a fairy, wearing exquisite and bare clothes, covering only a few key parts, each of her action is fantastic.

"Well, 87 points."

Ross looked at her for a while and replied without hesitation.

Stussy smiled and said: "It's Mr. Ross, who really has a good eye. Ruth only has 87 points. I don't know what kind of beautiful person can get the full score here for you."

"The remaining 13 points are not so easy to get."

Ross glanced at Stussy with a slightly deeper look. Stussy felt vaguely what Ross was saying, but could not understand it. So she stopped talking and responded with a smile.

After a while, she looked at the dancer on the stage, Ruth, and said: "I didn't expect you to come today, I haven't had time to arrange a special program, but the girls here are free for you."

"Oh?"

Ross looked over at Stussy and said, "So, are you free?"

Stussy put her hand on her chin and said: "I have a lot of young and beautiful girls here. You don't want to look at an 'old women'."

As she spoke, she noticed that Ross's glass was empty, and her eyes glittered slightly. She waved to the waiter not far away and signaled for a drink to come.

Soon.

Two glasses of fine wine were placed on the table.

"Here's my signature wine. Would you like to try it?"

Stussy took a glass from the table and took a sip, smiling at Ross.

Ross lifted his glass, sniffed it under his nose, and nodded.

"Not bad…"

But when Stussy thought that Ross was going to drink, Ross gently put the glass down and suddenly raised his hand and snatched the one in her hand.

"But still this wine glass looks better."

Stussy's face remained unchanged, and she said with a smile, "You like it."

Ross slowly lowered the glass and a bit of amusement flashed in his eyes, he leaned forward, pointed his finger at Stussy's chin, and said, "It's almost time for the little tricks to stop. Can you tell me what your CP0 will do next?"

Understanding the words, her ears violently trembled.

Stussy reluctantly kept her town fixed, said: "What are you talking about? CP0 is the government's intelligence agency. Although I have some intelligence channels, how can I know how they act?

"Really?"

Ross smiled and pushed his palms forward and pinched her tender neck.

Stussy subconsciously wanted to resist, but her mind flashes, knowing that no matter whether her identity is really exposed or not, resistance is meaningless in front of existence like Ross.

So she did not make any resistance.

"Madame Stussy!"

"Stop it! What are you doing?!"

The people in the hall noticed the abnormalities on this side and instantly became confused.

Ross pinched the jade-like neck of Stussy and his five fingers were lightly forced, he saw that she did not put up any resistance, only revealing an innocent and praying eye, he could not help but gently smile.

If he hadn't known the plot, he would have wondered if his memory had gone wrong.

So she's one of those who can remain patient, that's easy to do, let's see how long can you endure?

Ross's thoughts moved and Haoshoku Haki swung open in an instant and there was a moment of silence in the hall. Whether it was the dancing ladies who tried to rush over with their weapons or the frightened aristocrats, they all acted in a moment and fell unconscious one after another.

His fingers moved down Stussy's neck, grabbed her collar, and suddenly pulled hard.

Sneer!

The white dress top instantly shattered.

"Huh… Huh… Please, please don't do that."

Stussy gasped, her hands blocking her body, her eyes sparkled with fear, and she still looked like an ordinary person.

Ross stood up, looked at her lightly, bypassed the coffee table and walked towards her.

Sigh!

Stussy's dress was torn apart in an instant. She retreated timidly but never used Marine's Rokushiki or any other power.

Ross was not in a hurry, so he slowly went forward, watching her retreating steadily, and finally pressed her on the brilliant wall.

Just when Ross was going to do something.

Suddenly a shock came from the window on one side. A man in yellow leather appeared at the window. Instead of looking at Stussy, he stared at Ross in suspicion.

"Ghost Hand Ross? Weren't you being held in Impel Down?!"

Wings Of Sky, Ficheux Erman!

He met Ross once in the Sabaody Archipelago and later heard that Ross killed a tenryubito. He was amazed at Ross's boldness. Then came the Dressrosa incident and the news that Ross was defeated by Marine and imprisoned in Impel Down, Eternal Hell.

Unexpectedly, nearly a year later, he met Ross in Happy Street!

"I was getting bored, so I came out."

Ross turned his head and looked at the Ficheux Erman, who appeared in the window and faintly said: "I haven't seen you for a long time, but I didn't expect you to be here."

"There was a burst of Haoshoku Haki and I thought it was someone strong here, I didn't expect it to be…It's amazing to be able to come out of Impel Down. Well, am I bothering you?"

"No."

Ross pushed his palm forward forcefully and the wall pressed by Stussy instantly showed dense cracks. Then the whole person ran through the wall and disappeared.

Ficheux Erman frowned, and his mouth shook slightly. 'It's a merciless start. You really are a dangerous person.'

Ross shook his head. "No, she would have probably caused some trouble for me down the line and she will attract the influence of the mysterious forces of the government, so it is almost here."

Ficheux Erman: "???"

Ross took back his fingers and turned to look at him. "It seems that you didn't read today's newspaper, but it doesn't .matter I am missing a sniper on board."

"Here we go again…"

Ficheux Erman rolled his eyes and said, "Look at what you're doing, everything about you is so dangerous. If I get on your ship, won't I be chased and beaten by Marine Admiral every day?"

Ross smiled faintly.

"If you're talking about a team of Marine Admiral, that's about the same, but if it's just a Marine Admiral who leads the team, I don't think he's going to chase after me."

"Well, your tone has certainly got bigger after escaping from Impel Down."

Ficheux Erman's mouth twitched slightly and after looking at Ross, they moved almost at the same time. He made a sharp leap in the rear, crossed an arc and landed on the far roof, while Ross smashed through the window and ran after him.

Seeing Ross coming after him, Ficheux Erman grounded his teeth and took out a handful of peanuts from his pocket and shot them at Ross.

"I remember that your bounty is one billion. I haven't got such a high reward before. It's good. If you can win then I'll go with you on your ship. If you can't win then I will accept the reward of one billion."

"Good."

Ross looked calmly and waved his hand. The peanuts that suddenly flew over were all fixed in the air. They turned into a whirlpool of Distortion and were finally kneaded into a ball.

Seeing this scene, Ficheux Erman's eyebrows slightly wrinkled, he is vaguely aware that Ross's strength was much stronger than the last time he met him, with a serious look in his eyes, he took out a coin from his pocket.

"Destruction artillery!"

The coin was attached with Dark Armament Haki as it ejected toward Ross.

At the moment of its pop-up, the coin accelerated wildly under the power of Speed Fruit and like a thunderbolt arc in the air, it broke through the speed of sound in an instant and headed for Ross.

Bang!

"How can it be!"

Ficheux Erman looked at the scene in front of him, his pupils shrank sharply, and he couldn't help but make an incredible sound.

In front of him, Ross was suspended in midair, his body motionless, he just extended his palm and caught his destruction artillery with his open palm!

"Good ability."

After Ross commented, he pinched the coin and immediately attached it to the power of distortions. The air distorted around the coin as it rotated as if it was an invisible whirlpool.

Sii!

Ross tossed the coin back.

Feeling the power of the blow, Ficheux Erman's face changed dramatically. He dared not give a second thought to it. His wrist shook and a golden gun was in his hand.

Boom!

He pulled the trigger at the incoming coin, and a bullet with golden light burst out, shooting precisely into the center of the coin.

The bullet accelerated abruptly under Speed Fruit, wrapped in a strong impact force, crashed into the power of distortion, and eventually burst into the air with both bullets.

"Can't win…"

Ficheux Erman's eyes showed a dignified look at the result of the collision. He had just basically done his best, while Ross looked understated, but the result of the confrontation was evenly divided.

In other words, the current possibility of him winning over Ross is extremely low!

It slipped away.

Sensing that it was difficult to outdo Ross, Ficheux Erman was amazed at Ross's change in strength, and at the same time, he decisively inspired Speed Fruit. The whole person suddenly accelerated and disappeared into a shadow.

However, just as he retired, Ross moved and stepped forward in Void.

Buzz!!

The strange power swayed and space was layered with Distortion.

The whole person seemed to accelerate in time. In the blink of an eye, he jumped seven or eight times in a row. Ficheux Erman, who came to a faraway place, looked at Ross with amazement. After he took a step, he caught up with him and appeared on his side.

Whiz!

Ross sweeps at Ficheux Erman's leg.

Ficheux Erman did not hesitate to avoid it and under Speed ​​Fruit, his movements are still much faster than Ross.

Ross stimulated the power of distortion, sweeping directly to the front.

Boom!

Although Ficheux Erman avoided the front leg sweep, he was still flying backward by the power of distortion, smashing three or four buildings in an instant, and smashing into the street.

"Cough! Cough!"

"How could this be……"

Ficheux Erman coughed violently and his mouth was filled with blood. He stood up with the rubble and looked at Ross floating in the air in the distance. He had some doubts about life.

When he met Ross in the Sabaody Archipelago, he thought he had a sure chance of winning, but it was difficult to kill Ross and it was in the Sabaody Archipelago, so he gave up.

But.

In just one year, he met Ross again and he couldn't even beat him!

No, it's not that he can't fight, but that he's almost crushed. Unknowingly, there's already a huge gap of strength between Ross and him.

It was at this time that a newspaper was blown by the wind and just fell in front of him.

Glancing carelessly through the newspaper, his eyes were instantly fixed.

Escaping from Impel Down!

Destroying the Marine Fortress!

New World's fifth emperor!

The lines written in the newspaper made Ficheux Erman's heart vibrate and when he looked at Ross again, he had an incredible look on his face.

Ross did not attack again, looking down calmly at Wings Of Sky Ficheux Erman.

In the Sabaody Archipelago, he did not really have a good chance to win against Ficheux Erman, but now he has overtaken Ficheux Erman in all aspects except for speed.

Although his speed is a bit slower, it can also be compensated by other aspects. It is difficult for Fitchux Erman to escape from his hand when it is a one-on-one fight.

Whiz!

The confrontation between Ross and Ficheux Erman continued for a short time, but it was very big. It had already alarmed Shiliew of the Rain on another street, and he heard the news.

Seeing Ross in the air and Ficheux Erman below, Shiliew of the Rain squinted slightly and said, "Who's this guy?"

Shiliew of the Rain has some concerns about the various types of pirate prisoners, but he has little knowledge or interest in Pirate Hunter.

But.

Shiliew of the Rain doesn't know Ficheux Erman BUT Ficheux Erman has heard of Shiliew of the Rain, there are some descriptions of Shiliew of the Rain in the newspaper.

Looking at Ross and Shiliew of the Rain, Ficheux Erman knew that he couldn't escape. He looked up at Ross and finally showed a bitter smile.

"You win."

"I am willing to join."

If it was the former Ross, he would not easily bow his head even when facing the other side and Shiliew of the Rain, but now Ross is not like his old self. He escaped from Impel Down and created chaos in the Marine Headquarters and is regarded as the fifth emperor!

As one of the emperors of the sea, in this situation, he can lay down his pride, because the other side is already above him in both strength and fame, besides, Shiliew of the Rain is also a follower of the other party.

"Welcome."

Ross smiled and fell from the sky.

Shiliew of the Rain pushed back his blade into its scabbard. He stared at Ficheux Erman with a little momentum.

Ficheux Erman is willing to join Ross and is willing to become Ross's subordinates, but his attitude towards Shiliew of the Rain is different. In the face of Shiliew of the Rain, he is not afraid.

"You must be strong if you caused the Captain to invite you."

Shiliew of the Rain does not hide his own intentions. In the pirate group, Ross's status is definitely unshakable, but the people under Ross are going to have a difference.

Now that he has identified his position as No. 2 in the Ghost Hand Pirate Regiment, he naturally wants to establish his position in front of the newly joined Ficheux Erman.

"So do you. How about a contest sometime?"

Ficheux Erman narrowed his eyes and stared at Shiliew of the Rain.

He said before that he joined the team after losing. He fled immediately after finding that he might not win. As a result, Ross cut him off. He was also a face-saving person. He had already made decisions and choices.

But joining the Ghost Hand Pirates, he could not be the cadre at the end of the ranking, how to compete for the highest position under Ross, in addition to Ross, other people who also want him to obey, but it is not so easy.

"Okay, let's get out of here first."

Ross doesn't mind Ficheux Erman fighting against Shiliew to determine their position, but this is not the place for two of them to fight and Ficheux Erman was hurt a little so it's not fair.

After Ross's voice fell, Shiliew of the Rain and Ficheux Erman both converged. Whether it is Shiliew of the Rain or Ficheux Erman, they all have to listen to Ross.

The authority of the Captain is unquestionable.

After a few hours of rest.

Shiliew of the Rain and Ficheux Erman are still in conflict with each other. After all, it is necessary to use a Battle to determine the status of both sides. Ross did not forcefully stop it. Because this kind of thing prevents meaningless quarrels later, the three people came to the island on the east coast.

"With the strength of both of you, it may take serious injuries to distinguish the victory from the defeat. This is not the case at this time."

Ross stopped and yelled at Shiliew of the Rain and Ficheux Erman.

Shiliew of the Rain and Ficheux Erman looked at each other and they did not intend to fight for life, just to test who is strongest among them.

Shiliew of the Rain murmured, "Then use injury for the win or lose. Whoever gets hurt first loses."

Ficheux Erman shook his head and said, "No, it's too hasty. It's better to base it on three times. Whoever has minor or major injuries three times loses."

"Yes."

Shiliew of the Rain nodded.

They retreated to stand face to face at a distance of ten meters, while Ross came to a reef and looked at the battlefield with his hands on his back.

"Start."

As Ross's voice fell, Shiliew of the Rain and Ficheux Erman moved at the same time.

Whiz!

Shiliew of the Rain crossed a blood-red arc and the second generation demon blade in his hands cut across the battlefield instantaneously, directly spanning more than ten meters.

Ficheux Erman evaded Shiliew in an instant, pulled out two golden guns and fired at Shiliew.

Ding!

Shiliew swung his sword and the bullet collided with the blade and was cut in half by his sword edge, but it also made his blade Buzz!

"Blood Cross Sword!"

The blade flips, sweeps, splits and cuts the bullet. At the same time, it triggers a cross star's bloody chop and sweeps toward Ficheux Erman.

Ficheux Erman dodged.

Shiliew of the Rain stepped out one step and followed him sharply, he swung his sword across and waved a hollow Blood Sword energy, Ficheux Erman leaned back and bent into a huge curve, avoiding Shiliew of the Rain's chopping and pulling the trigger at him continuously.

"Snapshot!"

Bullets burst out of his gun chambers, carrying golden sparks, and attacked Shiliew of the Rain at the speed of breaking through the sound barrier. Each bullet was wrapped in a tremendous impact.

"One Sword Flow, snake belly sword!"

Shiliew of the Rain's second-generation demon sword turned into a blood-stained shadow, sweeping in all directions, cutting the flying bullets and enveloped Ficheux Erman in the attack area.

Ficheux Erman's body, under the influence of Speed Fruit, is like pressing the fast-forward button, twisting sideways and so on. Every action is fast and out of line. He has more than enough edge in his attack power like Shiliew of the Rain and he occasionally fires his gun to fight back.

Snee!

Ficheux Erman was the first to be injured after dozens of consecutive battles. His sideburns were brushed by a sword edge, which belonged to Shiliew of the Rain and could not be completely avoided.

At the same time, however, a bullet grazed Shiliew of the Rain's shoulder, leaving a scar on Shiliew of the Rain's shoulder.

"Splitting!"

Shiliew of the Rain's glare is cold, holding the second generation demon sword, he suddenly split out one after another blood-colored sword energy, like the wind Rainstorm generally that shrouded Ficheux Erman, trying to block all of his escape directions.
