One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

The most striking feature was the spider-faced woman's face. Even though it was frighteningly large, her appearance was absolutely the most perfect among all the women Rorschach had seen since coming to this world.

Her snow-white face possessed a natural allure, and her charming eyes trembled beneath her long eyelashes. Now, glistening with tears, she appeared even more pitiful and endearing.

Her eyebrows were as delicate as crescent moons, and her red lips were as vibrant as fire. Even as she opened her mouth to scream in pain, her voice carried a melodious, soft whisper that made one's body go weak.

What's striking is that she has a third eye on her forehead.

The third eye, far from detracting from the beauty of her face, added a touch of mystery, making her even more alluring.

However, one should not look at any part of her body other than her charming face.

Otherwise, you would definitely be scared half to death by her enormous, mountain-like size and ferocious appearance.

At this moment, two large holes, tens of meters in diameter, appeared on the surface of the giant human-faced spider's body.

Large amounts of blood, like a flood, gushed from the two gaping wounds of flesh and blood, cascading onto the ground like a waterfall, submerging the weeds and rocks, and rushing towards where Rorschach and Zephyr stood.

Rorschach waved his hand, and an invisible wall of air formed in front of him, blocking the large amount of blood that was flowing in.

He frowned and looked at Zefa beside him.

"Professor Zephyr, what exactly is this thing?"

“Of course he’s an ability user. Have you ever seen a talking behemoth?” Zephyr coughed a few times, pulled out a bottle of asthma pills from the compartment of his mechanical arm, poured a few pills into his mouth, and chewed and swallowed them.

"Is he really an ability user?"

Rorschach was dumbfounded.

The human-faced spider in front of me is about the size of a medium-sized sea king; it's actually a Devil Fruit user.

Kaido's blue dragon form was only a few hundred meters long, and compared to this guy in front of her, it wasn't even as big as one of her legs.

Judging from Zefa's tone, he seemed to recognize the monster in front of him.

Glancing at Luo Xia's dumbfounded expression, Zefa sighed and shook his head, saying, "I didn't expect this woman to grow to such a size. When I first saw her, she was only about one-tenth the size she is now."

That's big enough, isn't it?

Rorschach rolled his eyes, about to ask Zefa what else he knew, when he saw the screaming woman's face stop. Her hundreds-of-meters-long black limbs bent, and her hundreds-of-meters-long, exquisitely beautiful face lowered, staring down at Zefa with a vicious look.

"Zeffa! You old devil, you're a heartless bastard. Was all that tenderness you showed before just a facade?"

Zephyr looked up at the beautiful face of the spider-faced creature and said in a deep voice, "No, I am grateful to you, Rose. Thank you for giving me ten days to spend with them. No matter what sinister your purpose was in extracting my memories and creating them, I am still grateful to you."

"Thank you?" The woman's watery eyes widened, and she let out a sarcastic laugh. "Heh heh heh, is this your way of thanking me? Pretending to be completely controlled by me, bringing this navy kid along, and making two holes in me?"

As she laughed strangely, the ground beneath her rumbled and trembled, and the entire island seemed to shake.

Rose?

Luo Xia looked at the giant face above his head with some surprise.

This monster has such a nice name.

He then looked at Zefa.

Zephyr remained silent.

He was indeed not under Rose's mental control.

The reason he stayed on the island for ten days was twofold: firstly, Rose created his wife, children, and students based on his memories, allowing him to see the faces of those he had longed for for so long, and he truly missed them very much.

Another reason is that Zephyr wants to rescue the island's inhabitants who are being mentally controlled by Rose.

With his current physical condition, which is plagued by asthma attacks from time to time, it's not certain that he'll be able to properly handle the problems on this island.

One careless move could easily cause a large number of casualties among ordinary people.

This is not the outcome Zephyr wanted to see.

So he played along, pretending to be mentally corrupted and controlled by Rose.

Zephyr knew that his disappearance would definitely attract the attention of the Marine Headquarters.

If he's missing, then the one who comes to his rescue must be at least a naval admiral.

When his men landed on the island, that was also the moment he made his move against Rose.

Zefa never expected that the person who came would be Rorschach.

He originally thought it would be Kizaru or Aokiji who came.

However, this does not affect his plans.

Rorschach's strength is already quite good. Apart from lacking some combat experience and skills, his physique and domineering aura are already approaching the threshold of an admiral.

Rose chuckled a few times, then turned her three watery eyes to look at Luo Xia. Her luscious red lips curved into a charming smile, and her soft, sweet voice rang in Luo Xia's ears, as if teasing his heart.

"Oh, so you're Rorschach, the Marine that Doflamingo's brat asked me to kill? Hehe~, what a handsome little brother. I can feel the powerful physique within you, hmm~, how about becoming my good little brother? I'll take good care of you."

Rose's words stunned Zephyr.

Rorschach was also stunned.

"and many more."

Rorschach scratched his head and blinked. "You mean Doflamingo asked you to kill me?"

"Oops~, did I let it slip? Hehe, but it doesn't matter, since you're here now, in my dream world, you can't escape now."

Rose blushed slightly, looking somewhat shy, which made Luo Xia feel a little disgusted.

However, he was even angrier now.

Combining Rose's words with Violet's words back in Mock Town, Rorschach finally understood that the person Doflamingo had summoned to deal with him was not the Pirate Empress at all, but this woman with unknown abilities standing before him.

That bastard actually tripped me up so many times.

One Kaido is already outrageous enough.

Now another one has arrived who doesn't look like someone easy to deal with.

'Just you wait, when I get to the New World, I'll send you to meet Crocodile.'

Luo Xia hardened his heart.

It's never-ending.

Just then, the ground beneath her feet began to rumble and tremble. Rose raised her face high, and the three eyes on her face, along with the sixteen eyes arranged on her abdomen, all stared at Rorschach.

The moment Luo Xia was locked onto by those nineteen eyes, he felt his mind being pried open by an invisible force, and his mind went blank for a moment.

This feeling is like being sleepy and wanting to take a good nap.

"Don't fall asleep, or you'll enter her dream, and no matter how powerful you are, she'll be at your mercy."

Zefa shouted a reminder.

Rorschach turned to look at him and asked loudly, "Teacher Zephyr, tell me the details about this guy. She doesn't seem easy to deal with. How did she manage to be so big? Is she stronger than Kaido?"

“Not quite.” Zephyr shook his head, watching Rose slowly pull a giant spider leg that was embedded deep in the ground. He said in a deep voice, “This woman is named Rose. She was a member of a great pirate crew from the old era that almost ruled the entire New World…”

"No way? This woman is also a member of the Rocks Pirates?" Rorschach exclaimed in surprise.

Lox was a prolific producer of talent.

The Rocks Pirates—how many legendary pirates did they cultivate?

Of the four emperors of the new world, three were his heirs.

There's also a guy with a ship's wheel on his head who's hiding somewhere now.

Oh, and Wang Zhi too.

Zephyr was somewhat surprised, "You actually know about Lox?"

"I heard Grandpa Garp mention it a little."

"Oh, so it was Garp, that big mouth, who said it. I was wondering why that pirate crew's name has become a taboo subject. Few people mention it anymore, and we were specifically instructed to block any news about it."

Zephyr continued, "Rosie the Spider Queen, a member of the Rocks Pirates, is a user of the Zoan-type Spider Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Jorogumo form. Her ability is somewhat similar to Tensei's Nightmare ability; both can influence a person's mind through their dreams and subconscious. However, unlike Tensei, Rosie's Jorogumo form only requires her eyes to see you, which allows her to influence your subconscious, see your deepest memories, and use her ability to directly copy those memories and project them into the real world. Those people you see in the city with their bodies covered in spider silk are from this."

"Being seen through her eyes allows me to see the memories in my heart?" Luo Xia's eyes widened.

Is it so powerful?

This ability is even more terrifying than the Red Earl's mind-reading ability.

However, it seems that Rose did not replicate the person she missed most in her heart.

I don't know why.

"Moreover, Jorogumo's Mythical Zoan abilities are several times stronger on her than on anyone else," Zephyr added.

Rorschach asked, puzzled, "Why?"

Zephyr pointed to Rose's third eye on her forehead, "Because she is not purely human, but a member of the Three-Eyed Clan. The third eye of the Three-Eyed Clan possesses a latent racial talent. Once awakened, it can not only understand ancient writing, but also see extremely distant scenes, much like the Stare-Stare Fruit's ability, and even see through people's hearts. This racial talent enhances her ability to control the mind of her Mythical Zoan species."

"Awakening a talent allows one to understand ancient texts? What kind of logic is that?" Luo Xia couldn't understand.

[Note: This isn't something I made up; it's Pudding's racial trait from the comics.]

"I don't know. Vegapunk said it might be something like a bloodline instinct engraved in the bloodline factor."

"Wouldn't the Three-Eyed Clan be even more impressive than the scholars of Ohara? They don't even need to study; they can understand ancient scripts after their talents awaken."

"Yes, so the Three-Eyed Clan is almost extinct now. Apart from Charlotte Linlin's daughter, the woman in front of us is probably the last Three-Eyed Clan member left."

Zephyr's words left Rorschach speechless.

Indeed, if you have that kind of ability, the world government would be very powerful if they didn't wipe you out.

"Oh, right," Zephyr said, as if remembering something, "I heard Rose is also the Golden Lion's woman."

"The woman of the Golden Lion?"

Rorschach stared wide-eyed at the human-faced spider, which was over 800 meters tall, and thought to himself, "Golden Lion, you're quite the man. The size difference is hundreds of times greater than the difference between Neptune and Otohime."

"Ahem, don't overthink it. This woman's true form is just an average size. Who knows what method she used to make herself this big?" Zepha coughed. "Alright, it's time to get started."

The two looked up at the sky and saw a spider leg, covered in barbs and thousands of meters long, raised high and thrusting straight down toward where they were.

Its enormous size, just by rubbing against the air, produces a terrifyingly loud whistling sound.

As the colossal spider leg, like a pillar supporting the sky, crashed down with a thunderous roar, the entire world seemed to shake.

With such a terrifying size, Rorschach really didn't know who could possibly block that gigantic spider leg that was thrusting towards them head-on.
