One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

"What's that?" Franky's eyes widened as he stared at the street at the end of the long street.

There, a straight crack stretched out from afar.

In the blink of an eye, they had covered a distance of over a hundred meters, leaving a long, dark line beneath the feet of the crowded people.

The pitch-black crack twisted and swayed like soft fabric.

Everyone saw that there was a black zipper, about the length of an arm, moving forward at the front of the crack.

It easily opened a bottomless, dark abyss-like opening in the ground, like zipping up a zipper.

The crowded people screamed as they lost their footing and plummeted into the endless abyss of darkness.

"There are still ability users lurking in the city!" Hibari exclaimed in surprise.

"What kind of ability is that? It looks very strange!" Luo subconsciously spread his five fingers, wanting to use the surgical space to save people.

However, the battles he had just fought against Gene Ango and William Hanks had severely depleted his stamina.

Before he could make a move, a gust of wind swept past him.

Luo Xia flashed and soared more than ten meters into the air, grabbing at the end of the long street with both hands.

"call!"

Invisible gales gathered and coalesced, transforming into chains of air that shot out with pinpoint accuracy, binding the citizens who had fallen into the abyss.

With a simple lift of his hands, Luo Xia effortlessly pulled dozens, even hundreds, of people back from their fall, lifted them into the air, and placed them on the rooftops of the residential buildings on either side.

Although rescuing people was easy, Luo Xia kept his brows furrowed.

"What's going on? How did this person appear? Why didn't my Observation Haki detect his presence?"

Since William Hanks appeared and caused a commotion, Rorschach has unleashed his powerful Observation Haki, which has almost covered the entire Water Seven.

It is no exaggeration to say that, with his Observation Haki enhanced by the power of lightning, he could clearly see everything that happened in the entire Water Seven.

However, this ability user who suddenly appeared in the upper city was never detected by Rorschach's Observation Haki.

"Chucky!"

On the ground of the long street, the huge zipper head was still rapidly extending forward, pulling open the hard ground like a zipper.

This time, even Oimo, Cassie, and the Carrera Company shipwrights who had just arrived were about to fall into the cracked black abyss.

"Air barrier!"

Seeing this, Rorschach pressed down with his right hand.

In an instant, an invisible air barrier appeared beneath everyone's feet on the entire main street of the upper district, like a thick piece of glass, supporting everyone's weight and preventing them from falling into the abyss that had cracked beneath their feet.

Rorschach continued moving, focusing his Observation Haki on the ever-extending zipper head, finally locking onto a faint, almost imperceptible aura.

"Found you! Thirty million volts! Thunderbird!"

Luo Xia swooped down like an eagle, and with a wave of his right hand, he sent a giant lightning bird, crackling with electricity and screeching, flying towards the zipper pull below.

"boom!"

The giant thunderbird crashed into the black zipper pull, instantly triggering a violent explosion.

The overflowing lightning blasted debris across the street, creating a huge crater.

As the giant lightning bird struck the zipper head, the continuously cracking street surface immediately came to a stop.

"It's stopped!"

Everyone looked at Luo Xia as he slowly descended from the sky, their faces filled with awe.

"They stopped the attackers so easily? No wonder he's Brigadier General Rorschach!"

The soldiers and boatmen wanted to cheer.

But Rorschach's expression remained serious.

"Shoot..."

Luo's body trembled, realizing something was wrong. He turned around abruptly and saw another black zipper pull appear on the street behind him.

The zipper pull that suddenly appeared opened horizontally with lightning speed, tearing open the broken ground to reveal a large, dark pocket.

The pitch-black pocket opened upwards on its own, like a gaping maw of an abyss, which was extremely frightening.

William Hanks, Gene Ango, and Rorschach's Dragon Spear, which were originally lying side by side, were swallowed into the mouth of this open pocket in an instant.

"court death!"

Dozens of meters away, Luo Xia's face darkened, and a deep blue domineering aura suddenly surged out of his body like a tidal wave.

Following the ground beneath everyone's feet, it spread out in an instant, rushing towards the large sack protruding from the ground.

At the same time, flashes of electricity danced across the deep blue, imposing surface.

"Eighty million volts of discharge! Lightning strike and instantaneous explosion!"

Rorschach clenched his fists in the air.

"Boom!"

The black bag, which looked like a gaping maw, suddenly exploded and was blasted to pieces by a bolt of lightning mixed with a deep blue aura.

At that very moment, a painful scream rang out from the Derek Ship Island, a kilometer away in the direction of the Lower City.

"Got you!"

Chapter 235 Explosive Rock

"Got you!"

Luo Xia's gaze sharpened, and without the slightest hesitation, his body suddenly expanded, transforming into a nearly seven-meter-tall azure orc.

His massive body crackled with electricity, and a fierce wind swirled around him.

"boom!"

A massive shockwave erupted in the sky above the Upper City, causing the entire Water City to tremble for a moment.

Immediately, Rorschach's figure broke the sound barrier, carrying the force of wind and thunder, and shot towards the target locked by his Observation Haki!

"Gene Ango, Hanks! What the hell have you two messed with?"

From a sudden, black crack on the ground of the abandoned ship island, came a man's furious shout.

From the zippered floor, a fat man with a samurai-style topknot emerged, his forehead beaded with cold sweat, looking up at the sky above the city center.

There, a burly figure exuding a terrifying aura was rushing towards them at lightning speed!

At the opponent's speed, it might not take three seconds for them to reach you.

That terrifying power of lightning, and that overwhelming Armament Haki that made one question the meaning of life, made Mori Ichiro completely unable to muster the slightest thought of fighting against it.

He desperately wanted to escape!

However, once his ability is used over a distance of more than one kilometer, he needs to rest for ten seconds.

He is a Paramecia-type Zipper Fruit user.

The ability is to create an opening in oneself and other inorganic matter, leading to a pocket space.

The limit of the abilities one can unleash is equal to the range of one's own perception.

That is, the range of his Observation Haki perception.

The farther the zipper can travel, the longer the rest time in between.

Ten seconds is a very short time!

However, Mori Ichiro looked solemnly at the terrifying figure that was crashing down toward him.

He lacked the confidence to hold out for ten seconds against such a formidable opponent.

Do not!

Even five seconds is impossible!

"One hundred million volts!"

"Thunder Pool!"

Before Luo Xia even arrived, the boundless thunderous power surging from the outstretched claws of the Qilin, forming a fierce thunder pool, preemptively blasted down towards the abandoned ship island below.

"Am I fucking facing a Marine Admiral? Are you kidding me? This power is terrifying!"

On the ground of the abandoned ship island, Mori Ichiro's fat face was illuminated by the terrifying lightning bolts that struck from the sky, making it appear and disappear intermittently.

The fierce thunder pool, with a diameter of twenty or thirty meters, was about to fall from the sky.

A hint of madness suddenly appeared in Mori Ichiro's eyes.

"Since you won't let me live, then let's die together!"

His eyes were bloodshot and turned red, and a zipper head popped out of his chest, which he grabbed and pulled downwards.

With a 'rip' sound, Morishita Ichiro's round, fat body split open, and a bunch of messy things rolled out of his body and poured onto the ground of the abandoned ship island.

Among them, the most eye-catching were seven or eight cylindrical glass containers that shimmered with a pink halo, contained an unknown liquid, and seemed to be soaking some kind of purple stone inside.

"Hahaha, Navy! Let's die together!"

Mori Ichiro picked up a glass container, held it high, and a look of madness appeared on his face.

In mid-air, Luo Xia unleashed a massive burst of lightning power. The moment he saw the glass container in Luo Xia's hand, his pupils contracted sharply, his heart seemed to stop beating, and his scalp tightened.

"That's... explosive rock?!"

This guy of unknown origin and with bizarre abilities actually has explosive rock?

That's a unique mineral whose explosive power rivals that of ancient weapons.

Rorschach had not only seen it in comics, but he had also heard about it from Sengoku when he was in Marineford. It was said to be the world's most powerful explosive.

It is said that a dozen or so fist-sized explosive rocks could destroy a small island.

If several hundred of them exploded at the same time, they could even destroy a large island comparable in size to Marineford!

The moment he saw the explosive rock, Luo Xia didn't hesitate at all, spreading his arms wide and striking at the raging lightning pool that had just been blasted out.
