One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

All eyes, filled with utter astonishment, converged on the imposing figure that had descended from mid-air and landed steadily before Drake.

Rorschach stared in surprise at Drake, who was lying on the ground, looking up at him.

"Major Drake, are you alright? Are you injured?"

Drake blushed, only then realizing that his posture resembled a seal lying on the ground, almost like he was trying to be cute to Rorschach.

He quickly got up from the ground, coughed a few times while covering his mouth, and then stared at Luo Xia with the eyes of someone looking at a monster.

"You...you're a monster? Not only have you mastered the Six Powers of the Navy, but you've also learned Life Return, which goes beyond the Six Powers? Who taught you that? Does Branch 177 have such an expert? Was it Rear Adira?"

Drake bombarded Rorschach with a barrage of questions, leaving Rorschach feeling overwhelmed.

Just as Rorschach was thinking about how to explain it to Drake.

Suddenly, both of them frowned and turned to look at the distance of the street.

"Have we been discovered?"

A cold, clear voice rang out on the dilapidated street.

"who?"

Drake gripped his weapon tightly, ready to strike at any moment.

In their line of sight, on the street not far away, appeared a person who was about 1.9 meters tall, with a slender and tall figure, carrying a long knife in his hand.

The man was wearing a black and white spotted hat and a rather inconspicuous black skull short-sleeved shirt.

The lieutenants of the Sharp Blade unit all moved behind Drake, warily observing their surroundings.

The peacock then came over.

A large group of pirates from the Giant Insect Pirates, grinning foolishly, crowded behind her, completely oblivious to the fact that they were enemies.

The officers, however, were not surprised by this situation.

Luo Xia pursed his lips.

This is the most unreasonable aspect of Devil Fruits.

These pirates were probably whipped by Peacock's Whip-Whip Fruit and were all successfully 'trained'.

But compared to these pirates who have switched sides, Rorschach is more interested in the person who is walking towards him step by step.

Because he had already discerned the person's identity from their appearance.

"Trafalgar, Luo?"

Rorschach unconsciously whispered it out.

The newcomer paused, his brow furrowing beneath his spotted hat as he looked at Rorschach with a puzzled expression.

"You actually know me?"

Luo scanned Rorschach, Drake, Peacock, and the lieutenant standing behind them with a scrutinizing gaze.

"You... are not pirates."

Upon hearing this, Rorschach remained expressionless.

But Drake's expression changed slightly, and his gaze toward Law now carried a clear hint of killing intent.

Seeing that Luo had already walked to within five meters of them, Drake's hands had already quietly gripped the axe and sword at his waist.

Luo glanced indifferently at his tense figure, seemingly unconcerned about Drake's actions and murderous intent, and continued to look at Luo Xia opposite him.

"Tell me, how do you know me?"

"Are you very concerned about this?"

A smile appeared on Rorschach's lips. To Drake's astonishment, he took two steps forward and actually extended his hand to Rorschach opposite him.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Luo Xia. Isn't that a coincidence? Our names both contain the character 'Luo'."

Luo's eyes flickered, and a sense of doubt arose in his heart.

Although he had formed the Heart Pirates with Bepo, Pekin, and Shachi a few years ago.

However, due to his childhood experiences and his profession, he has been staying in a certain country in Beihai for the past few years, researching medical techniques to treat and save lives.

To this day, he has not been put on a bounty by the Navy.

In this world, besides that family, Luo couldn't think of anyone else who could recognize him so quickly.

Seemingly sensing Luo Xia's thoughts, Luo Xia shook his head slightly:

"Don't worry, I have nothing to do with the people you're thinking of. I got to know you for other reasons. Anyway, now doesn't seem like the time to talk about this. I think we could perhaps discuss this somewhere else."

Luo frowned and stared at Luo Xia for a long time before reaching up to adjust the brim of his hat, turning around and walking towards the other side of the street, saying in a low voice, "Come with me."

"Hey kid, what kind of riddles are you two playing? You know this guy? He's a pirate, right? Are you sure we want to follow him?"

Drake reached out and grabbed Rorschach's arm, pointing to the headless fat man on the ground.

"Don't forget why we're here. This guy is the third mate of the Giant Worm Pirates. The death of someone of that rank will definitely enrage Mig Jones. It won't be long before that madman comes here. Shouldn't we get to Prince Palace as soon as possible?"

"No rush. Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory in every battle."

Rorschach patted Drake on the shoulder. “We’re new here and know nothing about this royal city, so we need to be careful. Let’s find someone to ask about the situation first. Hmm, that guy is perfect. Don’t worry, he’s not an enemy, at least not now. Besides, I’m very curious about why this person is in Prince Royal City.”

"cautious?"

Drake glanced at the mess on the ground, the bloodstains and craters everywhere, and the gruesome death of the fat man.

Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about what caution is?

Watching Rorschach chase after Law, who was about to disappear around the corner, Drake sighed and turned to the approaching Peacock, complaining, "I just don't think this kid is reliable. Why are we listening to him? What's with this plan to disguise ourselves as pirates?"

"Hehe, I think this is quite interesting. Maybe we can actually get some useful information. Besides, what about these pirates? Taking them along seems a bit conspicuous."

Peacock pointed to the forty or fifty pirates following behind her.

Drake glanced at the group of people and slowly drew his weapon from his waist.

“Then let’s kill them all. We’ve all read the files on the Giant Worm Pirates before we came, right? None of the pirates on their ship are innocent. Based on their past crimes, each of them deserves the death penalty.”

He glanced at the headless fat man on the ground out of the corner of his eye. "Anyway, we've already killed one of the leaders. We need to keep the others alive to prevent them from causing trouble. After all, your ability can only last for two hours now."

"Alright, let's kill them all then."

Peacock nodded and looked at the dozens of pirates behind him.

As these pirates listened to the two men's undisguised conversation, fear was evident in the eyes of every single one of them.

But strangely, no one wanted to run away or resist.

He still wore a silly grin as he looked at the beautiful woman in front of them.

The officers drew their weapons and rushed forward.

And from the far end of the street, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard.

Chapter 36 Mig Jones' Fury [Please Add to Favorites]

"Tap tap tap".

Dense and chaotic footsteps approached from afar.

As Drake and his crew mowed down forty or fifty pirates like grass and quickly caught up with Rorschach, who had disappeared around the corner, a large group of pirates wielding swords and muskets surged onto the long street of the royal city.

The pirates swarmed to the city gate, but their faces changed drastically when they saw the corpses scattered on the ground and the headless fat man lying there.

"Damn it, Lord Trul has been murdered."

"You must be kidding me. In the North Sea, who could kill Lord Trul in such a short time? From the time we received news of the fight to the time we arrived here, it only took a few minutes."

"Is this the time to think about these things? Contact Boss MiG immediately! A powerful figure is eyeing us!"

A pirate, his face ashen, pulled out a Den Den Mushi and began dialing.

"Pulu pulu, pulu pulu".

In the heart of the royal city, at the Prince Palace.

A huge round table was placed in the center of the spacious and bright hall.

The floor was covered with a fiery red carpet, like maple leaves, and the surrounding walls were lit with glowing red candles.

There was a graceful young girl, dressed in light gauze, swaying and dancing.

Around the round table, people clinked glasses and laughed heartily.

Princeia sat in the seat of honor and raised the wine glass in front of him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, let us witness the rise of a kingdom belonging to pirates in the North Blue."

"cheers."

"cheers!"

"Hahaha, this is fantastic! I've been dreaming of living in a country like this for ages, where I can plunder and kill freely and enjoy a wonderful life. Most importantly, I won't have to be hunted down by those disgusting, fly-like navy guys."

A burly pirate captain raised his glass, downed it in one gulp, and let out a hearty laugh.

“That’s right! The royal city is now under our control, and the entire Kingdom of Prince is in your hands, Your Highness. All that’s left is for you to successfully ascend the throne and gain official recognition from the World Government. Then the Kingdom of Prince will truly become the kingdom of pirates.”

"The only downside is that pirate kingdoms have to pay even more Celestial Gold to gain recognition from the World Government. They're a bunch of insatiable bastards."

"However, compared to safe plundering and freedom from naval harassment, paying a little more money is not a big deal. At worst, we can just plunder a few dozen more towns and villages every year."

At the round table, a dozen pirate captains from all over the North Sea were talking without restraint.

Ilya had a smile on his face the whole time.

A four-meter-tall man sat in the seat to his right, eating meat with gusto while staring intently at the dancing girl with his single, bloodshot eye.

"Your Highness, send all these women to me later. They'll be perfect for playing some new games with the newly captured merman slaves."

Mig Jones tore at the steak in his mouth and said in a muffled voice.

Ilya was about to nod with a smile.

At this moment, a pirate captain who was a bit drunk heard Miguel's words and let out a cold snort of displeasure.

"Captain MiG, there are ten dancers here, and you want to have one all to yourself? Isn't that a bit too much of an appetite?"
