Chapter 190: What Kind of Monster Is This? Vice Admiral Mouse is Shocked!

As Chen Ye observed Vice Admiral Mouse, the latter was also sizing up the two young men.

From their appearances alone, he could tell that these two had an extraordinary aura about them. They were clearly no ordinary people.

"I've heard that both of you are Devil Fruit users?"

Vice Admiral Mouse spoke up, "Can you show me your abilities?"

"Of course, no problem!"

Chen Ye readily agreed, glancing around and asking, "Right here?"

"Your ability involves flames, right?" Vice Admiral Mouse chuckled, "Let's not burn my ship—let's move to the deck."

With that, Vice Admiral Mouse picked up his sword and led the way to the deck.

Chen Ye and Qin Muyin followed behind.

Qin Muyin asked in a low voice, "Chen Ye, how should we present ourselves?"

Understanding her concern, Chen Ye replied directly, "Use your full strength!"

Since even Vice Admiral Mouse had been dispatched to oversee the new recruits, it indicated that the Marines had suffered considerable losses recently; otherwise, they wouldn't place so much emphasis on this recruitment.

In fact, Chen Ye speculated that the Marines had likely lost a high-ranking admiral and were urgently seeking to replenish their elite forces!

For that reason, he advised Qin Muyin not to hold back.

Nodding at Chen Ye's words, Qin Muyin agreed without objection. She trusted him completely.

Soon, the three of them arrived on the deck.

"Right here should be fine."

Gazing out over the endless sea, Vice Admiral Mouse said to the two of them, "Show me your full strength. If you perform well, I'll recommend you to headquarters."

"I'll go first!"

Chen Ye stepped forward.

He looked around, pointing toward the coastline in the distance and asking, "That hillside over there—is it uninhabited?"

Vice Admiral Mouse didn't respond, but his adjutant immediately answered, "That's the wilderness over there. Even if anyone's there, it'd only be bandits."

In this world, bandits roamed the land just as pirates ruled the seas.

However, unlike the infamous and powerful pirates, bandits were few in number and lacked notable figures, so they were hardly well-known.

Chen Ye nodded and clenched his right fist.

"Whoosh!"

A fierce flame ignited on his fist, instantly raising the temperature on the deck.

At this moment, a crowd of Marines had gathered to watch.

Upon seeing the flames on Chen Ye's fist, the Marines backed away in fear.

In the next moment…

Chen Ye raised his fist and struck forward.

"Whoosh!"

A tremendous whooshing sound echoed as the entire warship trembled!

A gigantic flame fist, nearly thirty meters in diameter, streaked across the surface of the sea, directly hitting the distant hillside along the coast.

"Boom!"

A thunderous explosion filled the air.

The entire hillside was obliterated, and the blast's shockwave even sent waves rippling across the sea.

After the explosion, fierce flames continued to burn, spreading outward.

The power of this was comparable to an intercontinental missile.

Of course, such strength couldn't come solely from Chen Ye's flame abilities. The force of his punch added significantly to its impact.

On the deck, the Marines watching were all left in stunned silence, their eyes wide with awe as they looked at Chen Ye with newfound respect.

Even Vice Admiral Mouse's eyes narrowed.

Such destructive power exceeded even his most powerful techniques.

He stared at Chen Ye, wondering where this young powerhouse had come from.

So young, yet possessing such strength—his potential was limitless!

At that moment…

A sudden commotion erupted from the ship's interior, loud and chaotic.

Vice Admiral Mouse immediately asked, "What's going on?"

A soldier soon returned to report, "Vice Admiral, the sound of the explosion startled the new recruits in the cabin. They mistook it for an enemy attack, causing the disturbance."

Hearing this, Chen Ye couldn't help but feel speechless.

Vice Admiral Mouse frowned, intending to scold them, but reconsidered upon remembering they were still new recruits and let it go.

"Calm them down!"

"Yes, sir!"

The Marine soldier returned to the cabin to reassure the new recruits.

Meanwhile, back on the hillside, the fire was growing out of control. If left unchecked, it could easily turn into a full-blown wildfire.

Vice Admiral Mouse instructed, "Move the ship closer; prepare to fight the fire."

The adjutant was about to comply when Qin Muyin stepped forward. "No need for that!"

With those words, Qin Muyin waved her hand, and her entire body began to glow green.

Suddenly, the calm sea surface started churning with undercurrents.

In just a few breaths, a towering wave rapidly formed and surged toward the shore.

By the time it reached the coast, it had transformed into a tsunami dozens of meters high!

"Whoosh—"

The massive wave crashed down onto the burning hillside, dousing it in what seemed like hundreds of tons of seawater, with a thunderous roar.

The once-raging fire was extinguished completely.

Seeing this, the Marines on the deck were stunned into silence.

They had already thought the young man was strong, but this woman was even more terrifying!

A simple wave of her hand had summoned a tsunami—what kind of monster was she?

Even Vice Admiral Mouse, who had been trying to maintain a calm facade, couldn't hide his shock.

And she wasn't done yet.

Qin Muyin suddenly floated into the air and asked, "The next recruitment point is straight ahead, correct?"

Vice Admiral Mouse's adjutant instinctively nodded.

Without another word, Qin Muyin activated her telekinesis and took control of the warship.

A low hum filled the air.

The entire warship was lifted from the sea, floating into the air, and began flying toward the next recruitment point at high speed.

Everyone aboard was left in utter disbelief.

Even an empty warship weighed tens of thousands of pounds, not to mention this fully loaded ship, carrying over a hundred recruits and a vast amount of supplies.

Yet here it was, soaring through the sky, with Qin Muyin appearing completely at ease.

The Marines couldn't comprehend it—what kind of terrifying power was this? Who was this green-glowing woman, some kind of goddess?

Vice Admiral Mouse was speechless, realizing that if this woman decided to attack him, he wouldn't stand a chance.

In his eyes, the terrifying power Qin Muyin displayed was on par with that of a Marine admiral.

…

The journey to the next recruitment point, which should have taken over an hour, was completed in just ten minutes, thanks to Qin Muyin.

When the warship arrived at the recruitment point, countless onlookers at the dock saw a warship descending from the sky and were nearly scared out of their wits.

With her display of power, Qin Muyin had successfully elevated herself to a near-mythical status in the eyes of many.

Moments later, inside the captain's quarters…

Vice Admiral Mouse, now completely respectful, invited the two to sit and served them a lavish dinner. He didn't dare show even a hint of authority.

"Lady Qin Muyin, I hope this isn't too forward, but may I ask what kind of Devil Fruit ability you possess? Are you able to control all things?"

"Having someone as powerful as you in this recruitment drive is a tremendous honor for the entire Marine force. I must report this to headquarters immediately!"
