Determine the target and tell the sailors at the helm the direction.

He turned to the sailors and said, "Everyone, get ready to fight!" ”

Hearing Ming's words, the faces of the sailors all became solemn.

Because this was their first battle, they were absolutely attentive.

All of them were warmed up and their weapons were checked.

Everything is ready and everyone is lined up on deck, ready to go.

Ming stood at the bow of the ship, he had already seen the pirate ship.

Gadros, the owner of this pirate ship, is a newcomer to pirates, but like Luffy, he is a person who acquired the ability of Devil Fruit as a child.

When he went to sea, he had a starting point that surpassed many newcomers to the pirates, so much so that he soon pulled up a large group of pirates in the East China Sea.

In battles with other pirates and navies, Gadros always won with the help of his Devil Fruit abilities, which gave him an attitude of being empty-eyed.

It also gave him the idea of occupying a territory, so the shipping lane between the kingdoms of Adams and Goya became his goal.

The successful looting of these days made him feel that the occupation of this waterway was a sure thing.

With such a mentality, when he found out that Ming's naval ship was approaching him, he didn't care about its approach at all, but felt in his heart that Ming was a sheep.

Gadros is not the only one on the pirate ship who has this mentality, but many of Gadros' men are also in this way.

Their open-minded attitude made them even want to take the initiative, but Gadros stopped them.

In Gadros's eyes, there is no need for the strong to take the initiative, they should wait for their navy to attack, and then easily deal with the navy, so that they can show their strength.

Looking at the imposing pirates, Ming's eyes narrowed, he didn't expect such a situation.

He said to the sailors behind him: "Everyone get ready, give that group of pirates a dismount, let them know that they only have a few catties and a few taels." ”

"Yes, Major!" The sailors shouted.

The sailors raised their guns and then all stood in the bow of the ship, ready to attack the pirates on the pirate ship.

Gadros noticed the situation on Ming's side through the binoculars, he sneered, and said to the pirates behind him: "The gunners shoot at the naval ships, and the people with guns are ready to fight the seamen." ”

Hearing Gadros's order, the pirates also rushed to the bow of the ship, ready for battle, and the gunners launched an attack on the naval ship.

Looking at the two cannonballs that flew over, Ming jumped up, and the sea black dragon in his hand was unsheathed, destroying both cannonballs.

Seeing that Ming's attack was so sharp, Gadros knew that the navy he encountered this time was not ordinary, but he still didn't have any worries about his own strength, which was quite confident.

With the distance between the two ships less than five meters, the pirates on the pirate ship launched an attack on the naval ship.

When the sailors saw the pirates attacking so quickly, they immediately returned the favor as Ming had requested.

It was the first time he had encountered such a situation, and he stood at the bow of the ship with great interest, watching the battle.

The pirate's bullets also hit him a little, but he only needed to do some writhing movements to dodge the bullets.

When he was less than two meters away from the pirate ship, Ming said to Kent beside him: "Kent, wait for me to open the gap, and you will lead people to rush the pirate ship." ”

"I see, Major!" Kent said solemnly.

Ming nodded, and then jumped towards the pirate ship.

When the pirates at the bow of the ship saw Ming's move, several people immediately shot at Ming.

It's a pity that Ming dodged in the air very easily, and seeing this scene, Gadros showed an interested look in his eyes.

His instincts told him that Ming was different from the navy he had encountered before.

No longer sitting in his chair, Gadros stood up and walked to Ming's place.

Landing on the pirate ship, the black dragon in Ming's hand turned into an afterimage and slashed out, severely damaging several pirates beside him.

He saw Gadros coming over, and there was a look of curiosity in his eyes, after all, many devil fruits have long been famous, but Gadros is not among them, and he really doesn't know what Gadros's fruit ability is.

"Boy, you are not so brave that you dare to come over alone." Gadros said coldly.

"I've always been very bold against pirates of your level." Ming said coldly as he slashed a few pirates again.

When Gadros heard Ming's words, his legs exerted force, and the whole person rushed towards Ming like a cannonball, and the long knife clenched in his right hand slashed at Ming.

Using his domineering control to knock one of the pirates next to him into the air, he swung the black dragon and swept Gadros's long knife with a sweep.

Boom!

When Gadros's long knife collided with Ming's black dragon, Gadros felt a terrifying force coming from the long knife.

His whole body was forced to retreat again and again by this force, and his right hand holding the long knife was trembling slightly.

Gadros had a solemn look in his eyes, and in just one round, he showed the gap between him and Ming.

Originally, he wanted to find out the bottom of the truth, but now it seems that he doesn't need to, if he doesn't go all out, I'm afraid he may be planted in Ming's hands.

Taking a deep breath, Gadros' eyes narrowed, and he began to use the Devil Fruit abilities he was familiar with.

He didn't know what Gadros was doing, but he felt an uncomfortable feeling looming over him.

In order to avoid accidents, Ming used his feet to exert force, and he quickly rushed to Gadros with a shave, and slashed at Gadros.

Swish!

When he hit Gadros, he sensed that something was wrong, because he didn't feel like he was hitting the real thing.

"Oops, it's an illusion!"

Ming, who realized the problem, was shocked, he didn't expect that he had already landed unconsciously.

Suddenly, a close wind broke at hand, and he sensed the trajectory of the attack with a domineering look, and he instantly dodged to his right side, dodging the blow that Gadros was bound to hit.

At the same time, Ming swung the black dragon stabbing in the direction where the long knife came from, and Gadros's figure was forced out.

Looking at Ming, who had dodged his attack, Gadros's eyes were full of consternation, he didn't expect that his tried and tested attack routine would be cracked by Ming.

He realized that if he couldn't figure out why, he would be in a lot of trouble in the future.

Gadros asked coldly at Ming, "Boy, how did you see through my illusion?" ”

"I don't advise." Ming replied lightly.

Ming didn't seem to have changed, but in fact, he was shocked deep down, he didn't expect that Gadros's fruit ability turned out to be a superhuman illusion fruit, which could silently put people in the illusion without knowing it.

If he hadn't turned on the domineering spirit, Gadros's sneak attack just now would have been successful.
