One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

The aroma of barbecue and the stench of blood emanating from slaughtered prey wafted far and wide, causing Kizaru to purse his lips.

"Isn't this too much? Will that kid be able to finish it?"

It's no wonder Kizaru was surprised; the cooking scene below was rather exaggerated.

Two hundred naval soldiers were all mobilized and were extremely busy.

Among the prey they roasted were more than a dozen banana crocodiles that were 20 to 30 meters long, seven or eight large lizards that were more than 10 meters long, three large crabs that were 20 meters wide and nearly as tall as the Qilin, and a large octopus that was comparable in size to a small sea king and even larger than the Qilin.

Kizaru couldn't understand why they would catch an octopus in the desert.

What he didn't know was that even with so much prey, Lark wasn't satisfied. If Tina hadn't stopped her, she would have gone and caught a dozen more banana crocodiles.

The soldiers were exhausted just dragging these prey back.

Luo also complained that with such strength, why didn't he drag the Qilin to the rainy area?

On the deck, Luo, who had eaten enough food for hundreds of people, finally stopped stuffing his mouth.

At this moment, his belly was swollen and round, making him look somewhat foolish.

However, Luo clearly didn't pay attention to these small details.

He took a deep breath and ordered Bepo, who was standing to the side, "Summon a hundred soldiers. I need their shadows."

Bepo understood and quickly leaned over the ship's railing, shouting to the busy crowd below, "The lieutenant colonel is about to begin surgery. Send a hundred of you up here and hand the shadow over to the lieutenant colonel."

Upon hearing this, the soldiers immediately stopped what they were doing and gathered around together.

“Only one hundred people are needed. The rest of you continue preparing the food!” Bepo shouted again.

Soon, Hibari returned to the Kirin with a hundred naval soldiers, looking at Law expectantly, "Is the surgery finally about to begin? Brother Law, will he wake up soon? Use my shadow, Law!"

"No need, a hundred soldiers' shadows are enough. Any more would make me lose my composure, as we already tested yesterday." Luo waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately filed into the cabin, returned to their barracks, and went into places where the sunlight couldn't reach.

Before Luo could speak, Moria, who had been sitting with his eyes closed against the mast, silently got up and followed him into the cabin.

A dozen seconds later, a large, boiling, ink-like shadow appeared in his right hand and pressed it directly onto Luo.

Luo did not dodge, letting the boiling shadow slam into his body.

The next moment, he let out a muffled groan, his skin visibly turned blue, his body temperature dropped, his body swelled and his muscles bulged.

Soon, he transformed from a tall, slender young man into a muscular giant over four meters tall.

He exuded a fierce and imposing aura.

A pair of icy eyes emanated a chilling aura.

"Enel, it's your turn. Hurry up."

Luo calmed the hundreds of fluctuating thoughts in his mind and spoke.

Enel, whose body was wrapped in many bandages, still looked somewhat pale.

Upon hearing this, he stepped forward, extended his palm, and pressed a ball of lightning that had emerged from his palm into Luo's chest with a snap.

"I can sense that your body is struggling to withstand the amplification of these shadows. If you stimulate your heart with lightning again, you won't be able to hold on," he said calmly, glancing up at Luo, whose appearance had drastically changed.

"I know what I'm doing."

Luo took a long breath. Enel's lightning ball entered his heart, and he swelled up again, his body covered with thick blood vessels, making him look like a muscular monster.

After receiving the Ghost Cry from Bepo, Law turned around and went straight into the ship's medical room.

Behind her, Yun Que nervously clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and prayed, "I hope Brother Luo Xia will wake up safely."

Inside the medical room, Luo, who is over four meters tall, had his head touching the ceiling.

He gripped the Ghost Crying Longsword, which had become a miniature toy in his hand. A spherical ball of undulating energy was released from his body, instantly expanding to a diameter of two or three thousand meters before rapidly contracting, shrinking to just cover his right hand and the blade of the longsword he held.

Having consumed a large amount of food, been stuffed with the shadows of a hundred warriors, and used Enel's lightning to stimulate his heart and accelerate blood flow to enhance his stamina and strength, Law did not hesitate. His right hand, enveloped by the power of the Op-Op Fruit, and his long sword plunged into the head of Law, who was lying on the operating table.

Without a sound, the long sword, over 1.5 meters long, along with his right hand, completely disappeared into Luo Xia's face, as if he had entered another dimension.

"ROOM! Soul Surgery!"

Luo gave a low shout, and his bluish-black arm, covered with veins, trembled violently.

The next instant, Luo's full, bulging muscles deflated rapidly, like a punctured balloon.

The immense physical strength within his massive body was completely exhausted in one go, absorbed entirely by the surgical space in his hand, and used to forcefully slash along the long blade that had penetrated Luo Xia's head.

It remained silent.

Rorschach's head was split in two, and the spherical surgical space contained a chaotic, invisible mental fluctuation, which Rorschach used his Op-Op Fruit ability to directly extract from Rorschach's brain.

Such methods are truly unbelievable.

The amazing thing about the Surgery Fruit is that it can even heal people whose mental state has been damaged.

After Rorschach's severed head was put back together, numerous shadows immediately began to emanate from his withered, tall body.

As the shadow left, his body rapidly shrank back to its original size.

But Luo looked unusually tired at this moment.

Even a few strands of white hair had appeared at his temples.

Excessive sweat seeped from all over his body.

Luo was panting heavily, his vision blurred, and the long knife he was holding clattered to the ground.

Just as he was trying to catch his breath while holding onto the operating table, his body suddenly swayed uncontrollably and he fell to the ground.

Before he could fall to the ground, a strong hand firmly grabbed his arm and pulled him up.

On the operating table, Luo Xia opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and sat up. The confusion in his eyes vanished in an instant, and his eyes returned to their sky-blue color.

"Thank you, Luo."

Chapter 351 The Resurrection of the Dead

"Brother Luo Xia, you must wake up! If you can get better, you can sleep in the big bed in the captain's cabin from now on, and I'll sleep on the floor."

Whether it was some non-existent deity that heard Hibari's prayer or not, just a few minutes after Luo entered the infirmary, the door creaked open.

A familiar figure emerged from inside, offering a gentle smile to the eager crowd on the deck.

"I'm sorry to have troubled everyone, I'm back."

"Brother Luo Xia!"

The moment Lark saw Rorschach, tears welled up in his eyes.

She ran over like the wind, threw herself into Luo Xia's arms, and hugged him tightly.

Luo Xia's body was so jolted backward by the impact that he almost lost his balance.

"Oh, the Sakazuki family's little princess, she's been kidnapped so quickly." Kizaru's strange cry came from behind.

"I...I didn't."

Hibari blushed at Kizaru's teasing tone, noticed Rorschach's weakness, quickly released him, landed on the ground, and looked up at Rorschach.

"Brother Luo Xia, are you alright?"

Then, Yun Que saw that Luo Xia in front of her looked much thinner than before.

On the exposed skin surface, many hideous scars resembling centipedes can still be seen.

Especially below the heart, where there is a terrible scar on the ribs, where the muscle has been torn apart.

Even though Moria had transferred some of the wounds from that area to his body, the scars left on Rorschach's body still looked terrifying.

This demonstrates just how devastating the injuries Kaido's attacks, imbued with advanced Armament Haki and even Conqueror's Haki, inflicted on Rorschach.

His face also looked somewhat thin, and the lines of his cheeks had lost their previous softness, showing some sharp angles.

Seeing this, Yun Que couldn't help but feel sorry for him again.

A large hand pressed down hard on the top of her head and rubbed it vigorously. "Don't worry, these are just minor injuries."

After comforting Hibari, he looked at Kizaru sitting on the ship's railing and smiled, "Uncle Borsalino, thank you for your support, otherwise I would have been in big trouble."

“It’s Uncle.” Kizaru looked at Rorschach and asked suspiciously, “Your tongue…”

"It's alright, it's just a minor injury. It will heal as long as you eat something."

Luo Xia glanced back.

Moria seemed unwilling to meet him and had already turned into a shadow, hiding deep inside the ship's cabin.

Although Moria forcibly stuffed five thousand shadows into his head, Rorschach didn't blame him.

On the contrary, he was somewhat grateful to Moria.

Without his help, I might not be standing here.

Maybe he's currently moving stones in the quarry in Udon.

Thinking of Kaido made Rorschach feel his wounds begin to ache again.

That incredibly tough monster—I used so many powerful attacks on him, and he was completely unharmed.

He took several blows from him and was severely injured and on the verge of death.

The powerful regenerative abilities and vitality of mythical beasts are useless against him.

What happened to the promised one strike of Ryuo, two strikes of Hatake, and three strikes of Devil Fruit awakening?

I've taken so many beatings, and I haven't gotten a single benefit from them.

Rorschach, supported by Hibari, sat down in front of Kizaru.

He's not so badly unable to walk.

However, she did not break free from the lark's grasp.

"The Major General is awake! Major General Luo Xia is awake!"

Outside the Kirin, the soldiers who were preparing food cheered enthusiastically.

For these naval soldiers, Rorschach was the anchor of the Kirin.

During the days that Rorschach was in a coma, they were more worried about his safety than anyone else.
