One Piece: Inheriting the Shendu Template, I Summon Demons

The strongest members of the Navy Headquarters gathered together.

Sengoku, Garp, Akainu, Aokiji, Vice Admiral Tsuru, and... Kizaru.

The atmosphere in the office was incredibly heavy.

"I'm sure you all know why I've gathered you all here!" Sengoku, sitting in the main seat, had a rather solemn expression. He pushed up his black-rimmed glasses and was the first to break the somber atmosphere in the room.

Akainu and Aokiji, two of the three admirals, remained silent.

Garp, who is usually a bit frivolous, puts away his joking attitude and becomes solemn.

A sharp glint flashed in Vice Admiral Tsuru's eyes as he glanced at Admiral Kizaru.

Although the specific details are still unknown, judging from Kizaru's state, it's clear that he didn't gain any advantage over Law.

The Navy Headquarters dispatched a Navy admiral.

A manhunt that had never failed before.

This time... it actually failed.

"Kizaru, explain the information you've gathered to everyone..." Sengoku's beard, which hung down to his chest, trembled as he turned his gaze to Kizaru.

Kizaru nodded.

After leaving the Kingdom of Alabasta, he took Crocodile and rushed back to Marine Headquarters.

Because of the urgency of the situation, he didn't even have time to treat his injuries.

The bloodstains, still mixed with dirt, clung to the clothes.

"Just as everyone can see!"

"This pursuit... I failed!" Kizaru exclaimed.

There was a hint of self-reproach in his voice.

Although he usually likes to slack off and do nothing, his status is what it is. A defeat for a naval admiral will undoubtedly cause a significant loss to the navy's prestige.

"Luo Xiu's strength is far greater than we imagined!"

"Speed, strength, and self-healing ability have all reached top-level!"

"Just as Smoker said before, in terms of speed, he is indeed no weaker than me! In terms of strength, he is even stronger than me! As for his healing ability... it's equally freakish!"

Sengoku and Garp frowned together.

They knew Roche possessed these abilities, but they learned it from Smoker's report.

Now that it's Kizaru saying it himself, it carries immense weight.

This demonstrates that Luo Xiu's strength is definitely among the top ranks of the generals.

"A powerful being who combines speed, strength, and self-healing abilities!"

“He’s a master of hand-to-hand combat!” Akainu clasped his hands together, his face hidden by his hat, revealing no emotion, only a gloomy expression.

"Not just physical masters!" Kizaru paused before continuing.

"Besides these, Luo Xiu can also spew out explosive flames!"

"It's somewhat like the Flame-Flame Fruit, combined with Sakazuki's Magma-Magma Fruit!"

"He... should also be a Devil Fruit user!"

"..."

Everyone was shocked.

Flame-Flame Fruit?

Rockberry?

It can spew out explosive flames?

Each of these words is self-explanatory when viewed separately.

But when combined, they become extremely bizarre.

"Sakaski!"

"Are you sure?" Sengoku asked.

This matter is of great importance.

Kizaru pointed to his injuries, the meaning of which was self-evident.

The air grew heavy once again.

Even these powerful figures at the pinnacle of the world felt a sense of unfamiliarity.

"too weird!"

"His ability to transform into elements confirms that he is indeed a Devil Fruit user!"

"But why... is he immune to seastone?"

Smoker's report on Roche was still on the conference table.

Zhan Guo felt that this touched on a blind spot in his knowledge.

It is common knowledge throughout the ocean that Devil Fruit users' abilities are restricted by Seastone.

There has never been a single exception in thousands of years.

This has been fully demonstrated by a number of powerful Devil Fruit users.

But now, this irrefutable fact seems to be about to be shattered because of the appearance of one person.

hiss~

Devil Fruit users are immune to Seastone, so does that mean they are also immune to seawater?

The two conditions that restrict Devil Fruit users are practically meaningless in the face of Luo Xiu.

"Damn it!"

"This matter is of utmost importance!"

"This absolutely cannot be allowed to get out." Sengoku's face paled as he considered the worst-case scenario.

Users of Devil Fruits are immune to Seastone and seawater.

If pirates on the Grand Line and in the New World were to find out about this act of breaking the laws of the sea, the consequences would be unimaginable.

You should know that three of the Four Emperors are peak Devil Fruit users!

Akainu realized the same thing, and he slammed his fist on the table, his voice filled with anger and despair.

He must be brought to justice immediately!

"Such a person who threatens the justice of the Navy must not be forgiven!"

“Borusalino failed, it can’t be that simple!” Vice Admiral Tsuru, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up.

no doubt.

Just as the Warring States period said, this matter is indeed of great importance.

It is very possible that the current balance on the high seas could be suddenly broken.

But these are only one-sided inferences.

"Is it possible that becoming a Devil Fruit user actually happened right after Smoker's defeat?" Vice Admiral Tsuru, as a strategist, quickly discovered the key information.

Smoker's Seastone attack was ineffective against Law, and now Kizaru has been injured by his ability.

There was a period of time in between.

Sengoku smiled somewhat helplessly: "If that's really the case, then Luo Xiu, having obtained and eaten a Devil Fruit in such a short time, could develop it to the point of injuring an Admiral!"

"What kind of talent is this...!"

Lieutenant General Tsuru's expression froze, and he remained speechless for a long time.

This deduction seems... even more terrifying!

The atmosphere in the meeting room fell silent once again.

.......

"Judging from the current situation, these are not actually the most important things!" Garp said, his arms crossed over his chest.

Although he is usually unserious, his far-sighted and sharp perspective always comes through when faced with extremely important matters.

This is why the Warring States Association often invites him to discuss future plans.

Everyone turned their attention to this naval hero who rarely spoke, but whose words always hit the nail on the head.

"Don't forget, Rosh is only one of the eight great demons!" Garp pointed out the key point.

If one Rodriguez is like this, what about the others?

Compared to breaking the laws of the ocean, this is something that might happen in the future.

Shouldn't we be considering other demons first?

After all, they are truly threatening the balance of the ocean!

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression hardened.

Aokiji frowned, exhaled, and the air seemed to freeze into ice shards that fell onto the table.

Akainu's lips twitched, and his arm involuntarily turned into magma, dripping onto the floor and emitting wisps of white mist.

Kizaru nodded, and Luo Xiu's last words involuntarily surfaced in his mind.

"This is the last point I want to add!"

"I suspect that Luo Xiu's sudden appearance in the East China Sea started with the killing of Colonel Rat, and now he's in the Kingdom of Alabasta!"

"It's all a conspiracy..."

"First, we'll send out Rosh to test the combat capabilities of the Marine Headquarters members. Then, the other demons will be deployed one by one... The target will most likely be Marineford!"
