Tattooed 28 A Familiar Flag

The personel who is leading the fleet is someone that the World Government a.s.signed to help Dawn City. The Marines division of the government sent a Lieutant Commander ranked officer. He has a thin build together with his bald head and sly-looking eyes. A tattoo of a shotgun can be seen on his left arm. Even though his stature is not that admirable, the blue aura coming from him is nothing to scoff at.

"Commander Shadis, we are nearing our location, your instructions?" a crew saluted and said while not forgetting to flatter by omitting the word "Lieutenant".

"That's Lieutenant Commander Shadis, and you can just relax. We'll get there in no time." said Shadis with a gentle expression but he couldn't hide in his eyes that his ego was boosted due to what he heard.

"Yes! Commander!" seemingly unaware of the mistake, the crew saluted and left.

Shadis who was standing at the deck while draped with his Marine jacket chuckled.

Suddenly, from the corner of his eyes, he saw a suspicious looking vessel. He took his binoculars and quickly checked the ship. He saw a familiar flag, it has a skull with thick lips and wearing a pirate tricorne said to be based on their captain's appearance. Shadis recognized this flag or rather this jolly roger. Suddenly, he yelled on top of his lungs.

"Big Lips Pirates are here!!! Prepare for combat!!! Prepare the cannons!!!!"

The whole fleet clamored because of the shout infused with a blue brand aura.

The sects/schools also got ready upon hearing that a pirate ship is intercepting them, and not just any pirates, its the Big Lips Pirates.

The sea surrounding Balrog Kingdom is infested with pirates, although these pirates are not that strong when compared to the experts at the Glory Continent they can cause a lot of headache in any other continents.

This particular pirates is part of an organization which consist of the strongest pirates that you can find in the seas of Balrog Kingdom. Strangely, they call themselves the "4 Yonkos" which was nevee heard by the locals before.

At a certain ship controlled by the Sing Family...

"Ohh~ what's this? A pirate? Hahaha~ isn't this like a scene from a popular "manga" on Earth?~" said Lei Sing leasurely while watching the spectacle with amus.e.m.e.nt.

"Manga? I don't really have time to read those since I was still active with my gaming career when I died. Must be fun being a retired pro huh?" a teen with pale face and slightly puffy which indicates that he spends a lot of time in the evening replied. He has long slender fingers and delicate hands overall.

"Come on~ Brother Xiu, you're being bitter again~ Isn't it fun being famous for 10 whole years with one game?~" said Lei casually.

"If that team "Magnificent Era", that I personally built haven't done this to me, I'll still be the champion of the league." Mei Xiu said while clenching his fist.

He is Mei "The Textbook" Xiu, an "immortal" pro gamer who played at the peak of a game which he played for 10 years. He was a legend in the game "Pride" because of his uncanny tactics regarding him as "The Textbook" of the game.

"It's okay~ how about this. After I escape from this family thing, go with an adventure with me~ I want to explore this world and gain fame and glory in the process~ We can even be pirates like in One Piece or dress like Shinigamis or become Ninjas~ Keehh!! it'll be fun!." Lei said excitedly.

Xiu felt the urge to say yes but reasons tell him that he needs to repay the kindness he received from his family after his reincarnation.

He was reincarnated with a body of a neglected boy in the Xiu family. But when the family higher-up saw the tattoo on his back, he was immediately brought back to the main family and his status rised rapidly.

He has an indistinct tattoo of somekind of a weapon a.r.s.enal. Although vague, weapons of different variety can be seen. If you take a closer look, the tattoo is a made up of texts and letters but is scrambled enough that it became an abstract tattoo.

Mei Xiu named his innate tattoo as "Arma Orgullosa". Strangely enough, having an "Abstract" cla.s.s innate tattoo only let's the user name it in Spanish. Being an "Abstract" tattooed warrior, Xiu's life became of most importance for the Xiu Family.

"I'll think about it, I need to repay my family first." Xiu said.

"Up to you~ Tell me if you want to~ I'll probably stay for another month~" Lei said.

-Big Lips Pirate Ship-

"Ohhhh!! A fleet and it looks like they are rich!!"

"Heehh!! Seems like a Marine ship is also included! It's gonna be fun~"

"Bossman, let's kill them! I'll have fun with the girls~ Kekeke!"

"Alright boys, prepare for a raid!! Hahaha" a burly dark-skinned man said. He has sideburns and an ugly looking face with a scar on his left eye. A tattoo of a large b.l.o.o.d.y hook weapon can be seen potruding on his left chest area. He is a branch leader of the Big Lip Pirates who casually strolled around near the island when the disturbance occured.

He was known as Carn "The Butcher" Pudge. A pirate who kills and steals everything and everyone.
