One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

If it's a sea king, even a super-large sea king that's 5,000 meters long wouldn't be this big.

In the New World, there is a maritime kingdom that travels on the sea.

Zou, a giant elephant, is of an unusually large size. Bepo's Mink Tribe lives on Zou's back and is called the Mink Principality, which is not a member state of the World Government.

If there really was such a large island in the Calm Belt inhabited by so many people, the Navy would have surely recorded it.

"Go over and take a look," Zephyr ordered.

"Yes!"

The warship's outer wheels turned, and it soon entered the outer sea area of ​​the island ahead.

They traveled unimpeded, and no one shouted to stop them from getting closer.

Soon, the warship sailed into a group of reefs, lowered its anchor, and came to a stop.

Leaving some warriors behind to watch the ship, Zephyr led Ain and Binz off the ship and onto the island.

The people on the island didn't seem afraid of the arrival of these outsiders at all.

On the contrary, as soon as Zefa and his two companions approached the edge of the town on the island, they saw many residents standing in front of the houses looking in their direction.

A dozen or so of the bolder ones even came up to us, seemingly wanting to strike up a conversation.

Zefa spat out the seaweed strips he was holding in his mouth, took off his sunglasses, tried to put on a friendly smile, and walked over. He was about to ask where he was when he arrived.

But suddenly, he froze on the spot.

Motionless, like a fossil.

Ain and Binz behind them exchanged a glance, somewhat puzzled.

"Professor Zephyr, what's wrong?"

Ain called out and stepped forward.

Then, she froze in place.

Binz, who came along with them, was also there.

Because the dozen or so island residents walking towards them were all people they knew.

A burly, bearded man dressed as a farmer laughed and said, “Professor Zefa, you’ve finally arrived! Beth has been waiting for you for four whole years. Come on, let’s go to Beth’s house. Beth has prepared your favorite sherry and lamb chops.”

A girl wearing an apron around her waist, with a bright smile on her face, walked up to Ain and took his hand directly.

"Ain, what's wrong? Don't just stand there, Professor Zephyr, Binz, everyone hurry and go to town with Lily. Lily has been preparing a grand welcome banquet at the tavern for four whole years~."

“Beth, Lily…” Zephyr looked at the familiar faces in front of him, his heart pounding.

How could he not recognize these people?

For the past four years, he has dreamt of these people countless times, day and night.

These people were all his students.

They were the elite marines who had accompanied him to sea four years ago and were killed by pirates.

But these people should be dead already, so why are they here?

According to the perception of Observation Haki, they were all living people.

Confusion, like a fog, welled up in Zefa's heart.

Suddenly, the students who had come to greet them all stepped aside, revealing a passage, and looked at Zefa with smiles, saying, "Teacher Zefa, look who's here?"

Zefa looked up and saw a woman holding a purple-haired baby in her arms walking towards him with a smile in the parted crowd.

The moment he saw this woman, old Zefa was struck dumb.

"I've waited for you for twenty-seven years, and you've finally come, Zefa." The woman's voice was mournful, her eyes cloudy as she looked at the baby in her arms. "The child has also waited for you for twenty-seven years."

Zefa's mind went blank.

Chapter 352 High-Level Deep Blue Armament

"Pulling pulling, pulling pulling..."

On the Kirin, from the moment Zephyr hung up his Den Den Mushi, Rorschach's Den Den Mushi was almost constantly ringing. As soon as one call ended, another Den Den Mushi would come in.

Not only was Kizaru's Den Den Mushi ringing, but Tina's Den Den Mushi, as well as his own, were also ringing.

The sounds rose and fell, like a private concert for Den Den Mushi (a popular Chinese instant noodle brand).

The people calling were mostly naval officers.

Among these people are Aokiji, Akainu, Garp, Momonga, Onigumo, Doberman, Dooss, Denor, Drake, Smoker, Magellan from Impel Down, and Ronz.

During his year of training at Marineford, Rorschach came into contact with most of the naval commanders, and they naturally exchanged Den Den Mushi numbers frequently.

The only thing that surprised Rorschach was that old Jonathan had also called the Den Den Mushi to find out what was going on. He really didn't know where he got the information.

After connecting dozens of Den Den Mushi, even Kizaru, sitting on the ship's railing, was starting to doze off, but Rorschach remained smiling and chatted with the people calling the Den Den Mushi the entire time, without showing the slightest impatience.

It wasn't until sunset that Rorschach finally breathed a sigh of relief, handing the listless Den Den Mushi to the Marines behind him so they could feed them.

A fragrant handkerchief was handed to him from the side, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Rorschach turned his head and saw Lark standing on tiptoe. He couldn't help but smile. Just as he was about to say something, his already hungry stomach rumbled first.

Outside the Qilin, on the sandy ground, enormous prey, roasted for a whole day, were now charred on the outside and tender on the inside, oozing copious amounts of golden fat, filling the desert for kilometers around with a rich aroma of meat.

“Brother Rorschach, I knew you’d be starving when you woke up. Look, these are all the prey we caught in the desert towards the Rainlands. Come on down and eat!” Lark said with a smile.

"Okay. Let's all eat together." Rorschach patted her head, turned to look at Kizaru who was dozing on the ship's railing, and called out, "Uncle Borsalino! Dinner's ready!"

Kizaru was startled by his voice, his body swayed, and he fell backward off the Kirin. One of his shoes flew up and landed on the deck, which made Rorschach and Hibari exchange a strange look, and then they couldn't help but burst into laughter.

More than two hours had passed since Luo Xia woke up.

The hundred warriors who had fallen into a coma due to the loss of their shadows had already awakened.

Even the exhausted Law was helped out of the cabin by Bepo.

The setting sun at dusk, like a shattered egg yolk, was splashed across the cracked desert landscape of Albana.

A gentle breeze in the desert caresses you, like a pair of tender hands brushing against your body.

"Let's have a feast to celebrate our survival!"

Under the gaze of the crowd, Luo Xia raised his wine glass high.

"Wow! The party's starting! A barbecue feast!" Parmel lifted up an entire barrel of liquor.

The soldiers' faces were beaming with smiles.

Seeing Hibari, Luo, Tina and others sitting around him, Luo Xia took a deep breath and, under everyone's expectant gaze, reached out and grabbed a three-meter-long roasted banana crocodile leg in front of him.

Everyone's gaze followed the food in his hand. Enel glanced sideways at everyone's expressions, looking somewhat confused.

Why are these guys staring at that kid eating?

Not only them, but even that unfathomably powerful naval admiral was watching Rorschach.

Enel couldn't understand why people would make such a fuss over something as simple as eating.

But he soon understood.

"Alright, I'll start eating!"

Rorschach brought the huge chunk of meat to his mouth and opened it wide.

Click, click, click...

The dense tearing sounds, like sickles harvesting wheat in the field, continued without interruption.

After a phantom-like sway, the crocodile leg that Rorschach had just picked up, along with the hard bone encased in the meat, vanished from his mouth in an instant, as if it had never existed.

The way he eats is like he's brushing his teeth.

Those pieces of meat, roasted to a fragrant crisp, were pulverized as if they had been thrown into a grinder.

Rorschach's mouth is a shredder.

As he swallowed the first piece of meat, a thin line appeared in Luo Xia's eyes.

So hungry...

Inside the stomach, gastric acid is secreted frantically, completely digesting the food that enters the body in the blink of an eye, turning it into pure energy, which is then transported to all parts of the body through the flow of blood.

More, I need to eat more food!

Before Luo Xia could even get up and reach for the roast meat in front of him, Yun Que held out a four-meter-long crocodile tenderloin to him.

Rorschach was taken aback, then saw more naval soldiers behind Hibari, each holding food.

These guys are really... cute.

Without further ado, Rorschach instantly transformed into a ravenous beast, unleashing a frenzied feast that left Enel utterly astonished.

Rorschach devoured the meat presented to him by the naval soldiers with swift, ferocious tearing, chewing, and swallowing.

As he ate, his emaciated body, under the astonished gazes of everyone, rapidly became fuller and returned to its previous size.

The hideous scars on the body surface quickly scab over and fall off, revealing the new, delicate skin underneath.

In a short while, only the area around Luo Xia's chest remained, bearing a clear scar.

That area was also the most severely injured part of his body.

As Rorschach ate large amounts of food, his blood flow accelerated, transporting the energy converted from the food to all parts of his body.

His skin turned hot and red, his body temperature rose, and steaming hot air spewed out from his pores, turning the sandy area within a radius of tens of meters into a misty haze.

In the end, even the speed at which two hundred naval soldiers lined up to serve food couldn't keep up with Rorschach's eating speed.

All the onlookers saw was him push Pamel aside, stand up, his body swell, and he transformed into an eight-meter-tall Qilin beastman, his body surface flashing with faint electric light. In a flash, he pounced on a thirty-meter-long banana crocodile and began to devour it frantically.

Enel's squinty eyes widened as he watched Rorschach devour a 30-meter-long behemoth in just a few dozen seconds, leaving only a jagged, pale skeleton.

Is this guy really not human?

How could a human possibly be capable of such a speed of eating, such a large amount of food, and such a speed of digestion?

Luo Xia ate faster and faster, until finally, he let out a long and deep roar. His burly and powerful body swelled up again, instantly transforming into a giant Qilin beast more than sixty meters long. With his four stone pillar-like hooves, he opened his blood-red maw full of fangs and bit off half of the banana crocodile and swallowed it. The crowd was shocked and speechless.
