One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

"Don't be afraid, Princess Shirahoshi, I'll be there soon..."

Jinbe forced a smile, about to say a few words of comfort to Shirahoshi.

An extremely strong sense of crisis surged into his heart at this moment.

"Oh no! Drought Jack!"

He suddenly turned around, and his entire body was instantly covered by dark Armament Haki.

Behind them, a blood-red muscle ball crashed through layers of air, exploding into bursts of white air waves as it hurtled towards them.

In the blink of an eye, he had rushed behind Jinbe. The moment he covered his entire body with Armament Haki, two thick, giant arms emerged from the blood-red flesh ball and slammed into Jinbe's chest.

"Oh!"

Jinbe's body arched instantly, his chest caved in, and blood gushed from his mouth and nose without restraint.

"Hahahaha! Poor, poor, poor, poor!"

Jack opened his mouth, which was full of serrated fangs, and laughed maniacally. His nose rapidly swelled and grew larger, and he smashed it into Jinbe, who was coughing up blood, sending him crashing to the ground.

"Boom!"

A deafening explosion shattered the ground, creating a crater tens of meters in diameter.

Jinpei, his chest caved in, lay face up in the center of the pit, too exhausted to get up again.

"Jupai!"

Neptune's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

"Boss Jinbe!"

Bai Xing's light blue eyes gradually widened, and tears fell like broken kites.

A roar went through her mind, and she was overwhelmed by an intense sadness.

After a moment of stunned silence, Van der Deiken burst into hearty laughter.

"Hohohoho, great! You can chase me now, you bastard Jinbe. You'd better get beaten to death by that bastard."

Shirahoshi, my wife, now no one can stop us from being together.

"Hooray! Tonight we'll consummate our marriage!"

"Shirahoshi! My daughter!"

"Release Princess Shirahoshi!"

He could hear Vander Decken's smirk, his father Neptune's shouts, and the cries of a large number of guards.

Bai Xing's eyes were vacant, her mind blank, her heart filled with sadness and fear.

"I don't want to leave my father, I don't want to leave the Dragon Palace. I don't want Jinbe to die."

"Who can save me?"

As Bai Xing's emotions collapsed, it seemed as if a tremendous will was awakening within her body.

In the deep sea outside Fishman Island, the waters surged.

Huge, mountain-like shadows rapidly expanded from the dark depths of the ocean.

"Huh? What's going on? It's getting dark."

Watatsumi, who had relaxed after Jinbe's defeat, looked up blankly at the sky above Fishman Island.

Jack, who had been in a frenzy and slaughtering the guards of the Dragon Palace, instinctively sensed the danger of death and stood frozen in place, looking up.

"That is……"

Neptune stared blankly at the five enormous creatures that appeared outside the bubble membrane of Fishman Island.

Outside the bubble membrane on the side of the nearest Dragon Palace Castle, the pitch-black deep sea cracked open, revealing a ghostly green eye with a diameter of 100 meters.

Then, an eel's head, hundreds of meters in diameter and stretching for countless kilometers, emerged from the dark depths of the sea and entered the bubble membrane of Fishman Island.

To Neptune's and the others' stunned gaze, it opened its abyss-like maw, revealing layers upon layers of sharp teeth, and swallowed the dazed bald sea monster, Jack, Vander Decken, and Shirahoshi in one gulp, before shrinking back inside.

"Pfft."

Neptune trembled, as if all his strength had been drained away in an instant, and collapsed to the ground.

"White Star!"

Cloudy tears welled up in his eyes.

In the center of the deep crater on the ground, Jinbe lay on his back, looking at the several colossal sea kings coiled outside Fishman Island. He opened his mouth and muttered to himself:

"Did Shirahoshi summon these colossal sea kings? The will of Poseidon, the sea king who only appears once every eight hundred years, has awakened in Shirahoshi so early?"

Jinbe wasn't too worried about Shirahoshi's safety.

As the Sea King, all the Sea Kings in the world are her subjects.

Sure enough, just a few minutes later, Shirahoshi, who had been swallowed by that colossal eel sea king, was brought back in a daze.

However, the figures of the bald sea monster, Van der Deiken, and Jack the Drought were nowhere to be seen.

The pitch-black depths of the sea.

The 80-meter-tall Watatsumi lay on the seabed, his massive body riddled with holes seven or eight meters in diameter. Half of his head was gone, and he was beyond dead.

Jack the Drought lost his lower body, leaving only his upper body and one arm.

He had bloodshot eyes; he wasn't dead yet.

But his once golden hair had turned gray.

The swollen muscles shrank and became shriveled.

As for van der Deiken, he has vanished without a trace, completely disappeared from this world.

Chapter 243 Walking with the Road

Let's return our focus to Water Seven.

On the ground of the abandoned ship island, Rorschach handed the disconnected Den Den Mushi to Hibari and waved his hand.

"call!"

The whistling air currents converged, transforming into invisible tentacles that swept up the seven glass containers filled with explosive rocks on the ground, sending them flying into the air along with him.

"You wait here, I'll go and destroy these explosive rocks."

Rorschach said something to Lark and Rorschach on the ground, then flew towards the distant sea with seven exquisite cylindrical containers.

These seven explosive rocks were originally intended to be sent to the Navy Headquarters for safekeeping.

Explosives as powerful as dynamite can be considered strategic-level reserve materials.

Over the years, the navy has collected and excavated a considerable amount of materials, which have been stored as research materials and strategic resources on an island unknown to outsiders.

But now he has more important tasks to deal with.

Leaving the explosive rock in Water Seven and waiting for headquarters to send someone to take it over is also not a good idea.

After flying for seven or eight kilometers, Luo Xia stopped and looked at the seven glass containers floating beside him.

"What a pity. If this thing were used as a weapon, it would be far more effective than any cannonball."

Rorschach was somewhat reluctant to part with her.

But there was no way around it; explosive rocks were just too dangerous.

If it explodes nearby, even he won't be able to protect Hibari and the others.

Luo's surgical space was able to move the shattered explosive rock away immediately.

However, Law's reaction speed and Observation Haki are still far inferior to Law's.

Moreover, this explosive rock was obtained from someone who didn't know it.

There's no guarantee that there's some shady business going on that Rorschach hasn't discovered.

It's not about any kind of organization or agency.

What he didn't know was just how stable the explosive rock was inside the glass container.

If it were to explode from the slightest shake, that would be a serious matter.

Therefore, considering all of the above, Rorschach decided to destroy them.

"Hoohoo!"

The strong winds lifted seven explosive rock containers and sent them flying in seven different directions to prevent a chain reaction that could cause a larger shockwave when they exploded.

After manipulating the airflow to carry the explosive rock five hundred meters away from him, Luo Xia finally clenched his fist.

"Click-click-click-click!"

A series of crisp sounds of glass shattering came from seven directions.

Subsequently, the cylindrical glass container shattered, and the pink liquid inside flowed out, exposing the potato-shaped explosive rock ore to the air.

Rorschach's Observation Haki allowed him to see the surface of the fist-sized explosive rock rapidly turn bright red, fiery red.

Terrifyingly high temperatures were released from the small stones.

Then came a deafening roar that echoed dozens of meters above the sea.

The massive shockwave from the explosion stirred the seawater below, creating undulating waves.

Rorschach didn't throw it into the sea to cause it to explode.

He didn't want to kill thousands of fish for no reason.

After watching the seven intense fireballs rise and disappear, Luo Xia swiftly returned to the abandoned ship island, moving like the wind.

His speed was extremely fast, even exceeding the speed of sound.

Therefore, it took two or three seconds after he landed in front of Hibari and the others for the sound of the explosive rock to reach Water Seven from afar.

Even though they were seven or eight kilometers apart, they could still hear the rumbling sound, which made the iceberg wipe the cold sweat from its forehead.

Before Bing Shan and the others could gather around to ask about the details, Luo Xia explained the mission he had received to Yun Que and Luo.
