One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

To the astonishment of Laki, Wipa, and the others, the man who had descended from the sky swung his fist, which was engulfed in raging flames, and unleashed a massive fireball, tens of meters in diameter, at the god-like Enel.

Boom!

The raging flames twisted the atmosphere, scorched the void, and swept away and shattered all the surrounding trees and rocks.

Enel felt an unstoppable force strike him, and to his astonishment, the Thunder Bird he had fired exploded and slammed into his body.

The expected scenario of him transforming into his elemental form to dodge did not occur. Enel only felt a sharp pain in his chest, his muscles caved in, and a burn mark appeared on his skin. His body flew backward, crashing into and smashing through a series of large trees, causing blood to spill from the corner of his mouth.

"How could this be?!" As he flew backward, Enel stared intently at the bewildered Ace, gritting his teeth and saying in a deep voice, "That guy's body, like mine, can also be elementalized? The ability to transform into flames."

As soon as his flying body landed, it exploded with a crack, turning into a flash of lightning and disappearing into the forest.

The flames on Ace's body slowly disappeared. He scratched his head in confusion, looking in the direction where Enel had disappeared.

"What's wrong with that guy? Isn't it Rorschach? He should have unleashed the power of lightning."

Only then did Rachel, still reeling from the shock, come to her senses. She stared blankly at Ace, at the raging flames on the ground before her, her lips trembling as she uttered:

"Are you... are you a god too?"

"Huh? Are you talking to me?"

Ace opened his mouth wide and pointed to his nose.

Laki nodded stiffly.

"I'm not a god. I'm Ace, nice to meet you, Miss Angel."

Ace smiled and extended his hand, revealing a bright smile.

"That guy! He forced Enel to retreat!!"

On the other side, Wipa's eyes widened, revealing disbelief followed by uncontrollable elation.

hope!

That guy is the Shandians' hope for defeating Enel's rule!

A beacon of hope capable of withstanding lightning!

Chapter 299 Imposter God

On the surface of the White Sea.

"Delicious~ I've discovered that although the strange fish on the Sky Island look odd and deformed, they actually taste pretty good. Just grill them with lightning, sprinkle on some seasoning, and you have a rare and delicious meal."

On the deck of the Kirin, Luo Xia sat on the ground, holding a crab claw that was still three or four meters long even after being broken off. He took big bites of the snowflake-white crab meat on it, enjoying the delicious taste and exclaiming how satisfying it was.

"Mmm, it's really delicious. It has a kind of... well, the taste of the sky. It's just as delicious as the Water BBQ from Water Seven. It's so good that it leaves you wanting more."

The lark patted its belly, which was bulging from the crab meat, and a simple, contented smile appeared on its face.

Palmer tossed the crab shell, which was larger than a house, into the sea of ​​clouds outside the ship, and said somewhat unhappily, "It's delicious, but there's too little meat. It's clearly a fish several times larger than the Qilin, but it's all empty inside."

"Of course it's empty. Don't forget, this is a sea of ​​clouds seven thousand meters above the ground. If it were a solid sea king, how could it possibly swim in these light, floating clouds? It would definitely fall down, wouldn't it?"

Bepo rolled his eyes.

He felt that Palmer wasn't very bright.

He really is a giant; with such a huge body, his brain is only the size of a walnut.

After finishing the crab claw in his hand, Luo Xia waved his hand, threw away the crab shell, and looked down at the vast sea of ​​clouds with shining eyes.

"I wonder if there are any other delicious fish in there? We're not satisfied with what we've eaten. We need to find a way to get a few more to try."

Kulikai stared with his mouth slightly agape at Luo Xia's unchanging belly, questioning the meaning of life.

Although the big crab we just saw was mostly hollow inside.

But it's several hundred meters long, so there's still a lot of meat inside.

And the vast majority of them ended up in Rorschach and Palmer's stomachs.

Rorschach ate even more than the giant.

But he acted as if nothing had happened; despite consuming so much food, his body showed no change whatsoever.

Luo Xia stroked his chin and turned to scan the crowd on deck. "Does anyone have any good ideas on how to lure over a few more big cargoes?"

The soldiers looked at each other, speechless.

Bepo glanced at Palmer, who was still in a daze, and his eyes lit up.

Isn't this a golden opportunity for me to make a name for myself in front of Major General Luo Xia?

If I could gain the favor of a major general, my military rank would rise like a rocket in the future.

Heh heh, that big oaf Palmer, he won't even be able to eat his own farts anymore.

I, Bepo, am the fourth-ranking person on the Kirin.

So Bepo quickly jumped out and raised his hand, saying, "Major General, I have a plan."

"any solution?"

"Make noise! ​​That big crab was attracted by the noise of its wings folding together. So, if you want to attract more strange fish, make noise!"

Bepo looked smug and smugly glanced around.

"good idea!"

Rorschach's eyes lit up, and he pointed at the bewildered Bepo, "Pamel, bring me the super fishing rod that Iceberg made specifically for catching Sea Kings. I want to go fishing for the Sea Kings on this Sky Island with Bepo."

"Huh? Me too?" Bepo was taken aback.

"Of course, without your participation, we absolutely cannot catch any big fish. Come on, grab the rope."

Rorschach shoved a piece of rope into the silly Bepo's hand.

then……

He gripped the steel fishing rod, which was thicker than his thigh, and swung it with all his might, creating a howling gust of wind on the deck.

Bepo, who was holding onto the rope, was thrown hundreds of meters away. His bear fur stood on end, and he let out a strange howl like a ghost as he fell into the sea of ​​clouds outside the ship.

"Luo Xia, you bastard..." Luo's face was full of black lines.

"Great, keep yelling like that, Bepo! We'll attract the big fish soon, and then we can continue the barbecue."

Rorschach grinned.

"Ughhhhh! Help! I'm falling into the Grand Line! Help, Lieutenant Commander!"

"Help! Miss Hibari!"

Bepo's scream echoed from the sea of ​​clouds, reverberating far and wide.

"That's it! Keep it up, Bepo! You can do it! Go for it!" Pekin and Shaki rushed to the ship's side, their faces beaming with excitement.

"Go ahead and try it, you son of a bitch! Come down here and see what happens!"

Bepo continued to yell and curse.

Soon, the commotion attracted several enormous beasts.

The sea of ​​clouds outside the Kirin was churning, and the sea surface as far as the eye could see was boiling.

Amidst the surging sea of ​​clouds, a giant shrimp the size of a small mountain, a large octopus, and a flat, elongated ribbonfish were revealed.

"Fantastic! Three of them came at once! We're going to have a feast!"

The lark jumped up happily.

"Pull me up here! I'm going to die, I'm going to be eaten, waaaaah!"

Bepo's panicked screams continued, and Rorschach chuckled. Under Kulik's astonished gaze, he flicked his wrist and pulled Bepo, who was dangling in the sea of ​​clouds, back up.

That steel fishing rod, several tens of meters long, must have been incredibly heavy.

But in Rorschach's hands, it seemed to require almost as much effort as picking up a toothpick.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three enormous sky island monsters attacked from the left, center, and right directions simultaneously.

Its massive, mountain-like body blocked out the sky, casting vast shadows.

Amidst the shocked gazes of the crowd, Luo Xia exerted force with all five fingers, gripped the steel fishing rod tightly, and swung it around, delivering a heavy blow.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three phantom-like black streaks appeared almost simultaneously above the three-headed behemoth's head.

Then, the three enormous sky island sea kings crashed down, their heads smashed open by the heavy fishing rods.

In an instant, the sea of ​​clouds, spanning thousands of meters in radius, began to tremble violently.

"The grand adventure and picnic feast on the sky island, let's continue!" Rorschach's eyes sparkled.

Bepo, soaking wet, lay listlessly on the deck like a wilted eggplant, looking utterly dejected.

"Hey, reserve rations, get up and enjoy a big meal. You deserve some credit for this delicious food."

Palmer's gruff voice instantly enraged Bepo, who was slumped on the ground, causing him to jump three feet high.

"You damn giant, who are you calling spare rations? I challenge you to a duel."

"Haha, I was just kidding. Major General Luo Xia may have a big appetite, but he wouldn't be so greedy as to eat a talking polar bear, right?"

Parmel laughed.

As Rorschach used his lightning power to roast the giant beast the warriors had pulled up, he glanced at the ruffled Bepo and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

"I've heard that bear paws are a very delicious ingredient..."

"Ouch! I'm not food! Don't eat me!"

Bepo trembled with fear.

"Hahaha, just kidding. How could I possibly eat my own companion?"

"Haha, look how scared you are."

In an instant, everyone on the Qilin burst into laughter, and the air was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
