One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

"boom!"

Lightning exploded beneath Rorschach's feet, shattering the earth and rocks as his massive body tore through the air, leaving a hazy trail of electric afterimages as he charged toward Lindbergh.

"Get out of the way, Lindbergh!" the crow cried.

"It's alright! Tonight is the night of the full moon. As long as I see the moon transform into its Sulong form, my power will increase several times over!"

Lindbergh was about to look up at the moon.

But Rorschach's speed was much faster than he had imagined.

Before he could even look at the moon in the sky, he transformed into the Sulong form of the Mink Tribe, only to feel a sharp pain in his abdomen as a giant fist struck him. His small body shot backward like a cannonball, flying along the ground and crashing through dilapidated houses, shattering wood and rocks and sending dust billowing everywhere.

The crow's eyes turned cold, and it took flight like a large black bird, swooping down on Rorschach.

He placed both hands on the ground beneath Rorschach.

"Square coal!"

"Boo! Boo! Boo!"

Beneath Rorschach's feet, the ground was pierced by jet-black coal pillars with extremely sharp tips, like inverted stalactites aimed at Rorschach's body.

Seeing the sharp coal pillars shooting towards him, Luo Xia neither dodged nor avoided them, but simply stepped on them.

"Boom!"

The ground beneath their feet trembled violently, as if a dynamite had exploded, instantly shattering dozens of black coal pillars.

Just as the crows flying in mid-air were about to attack again, Luo Xia's eyes narrowed, and his right hand, as huge as a stone pillar, grabbed in front of him.

Across a distance of more than ten meters, the air within a radius of several hundred meters, under Luo Xia's grasp, transformed into an invisible giant hand, fiercely squeezing the crow in the sky and exerting force to crush it.

"Oh!"

The crow's body exploded with a bang, turning into a shower of coal dust.

The scattered coal dust recombines in the distance, eventually forming the crow's body again.

“Violent boys are not likable at all.”

Jasmine swung her heavy trident at him, but Rorschach's lips curled into a smirk, revealing four fangs. Tendons on his right arm taut and he threw a punch, just like his previous one, aimed at the tip of Jasmine's halberd.

"Clang!"

An even louder explosion rang out.

Rorschach's body only swayed backward slightly, while Jasmine, who was holding the trident, was sent flying by Rorschach's punch. She was shocked to be sent flying through the air in a long parabola, flying more than a hundred meters before crashing into the ground.

Rorschach cracked his neck, making a series of popping sounds, then smiled and walked toward Sabo, who had risen from the bottom of the pit.

Sabo's expression turned serious. He assumed the stance of the Dragon Claw Fist, ready to fight, but Betty stopped him.

She held a cigarette smoldering in her mouth, not rushing towards Luo Xia, but standing still. Suddenly, she let out a delicate shout and raised her right hand high.

"Fight on, my comrades! No matter what formidable enemy stands in our way, we will prevail!"

As her shout subsided, an invisible, strange power emanated from Betty's body, spreading out like invisible ripples, within Rorschach's powerful Observation Haki perception.

Jasmine, Raven, Lindbergh, and Sabo, who were enveloped by this ripple, suddenly had their energy and spirit increase by 30% to 40%, as if they had been suddenly lit like torches.

Luo Xia was stunned.

"Holy crap! Blessing of Courage! It's you, Healer!"

The aura emanating from the five people in the arena surged in the next instant.

Jasmine scrambled to her feet from the ruins, plunged her trident into the ground, and with veins bulging on her two thick arms, she swung them fiercely toward Rorschach.

"Boom!"

The ground within a radius of several hundred meters surged like a raging tide, wave after wave crashing down on Rorschach.

"Splash!"

The sky was dark, and a large number of crows burst out from their scattered bodies, swarming towards Rorschach like a blanket.

Those flapping wings were like two sharp swords, slashing towards Rorschach with a whooshing sound.

"The crows' souls are linked!"

In the distance, Lindbergh, who had been sent flying by Rorschach's punch, looked at the full moon in the sky. His eyes instantly turned blood red, his body swelled up as if being inflated, his snow-white hair grew wildly on his body, and a brutal aura emanated from him.

Lindbergh, in his Sulong form, charged toward Rorschach like a white phantom, using all four limbs.

Sabo, and Betty himself, also rushed out at the same time.

In an instant, the five of them attacked together, unleashing a blow at Luo Xia.

"Four hundred million volts! Thunder Pool!"

A massive amount of lightning was released from Rorschach's body, expanding and spreading outwards. Amplified by the deep blue domineering aura, it blasted towards the five people charging towards him.

"boom!"

Chaotic energy exploded in the arena, and Sabo and the other four groaned as their blood surged.

Betty and Lindbergh, who were slightly weaker, were thrown out and caught by Jasmine.

Luo Xia's burly body was sent flying hundreds of meters into the sky by the combined attack of the five people, before falling towards the sea outside the island.

"call!"

A gentle breeze blew by, transforming into a large hand that firmly pressed down on Luo Xia's back as he flew backward, stopping his trajectory.

"Your growth rate is much faster than I expected."

The wind howled across the sea, and in its swirling motion, it coalesced into a tall figure clad in a blue robe.

"I heard you wanted to see me. Could it be that you've changed your mind and want to join us?"

Chapter 443 Meeting with Dorrag

"leader!"

Seeing Dorag materialize from the raging wind, Sabo and the others were delighted and stepped forward.

A fierce wind swirled above the sea. Just as Dragon was about to help Rorschach up, he saw that Rorschach had already returned to human form, wiped the trace of blood from the corner of his mouth, and landed from the sky as if nothing had happened, standing in front of Sabo and the others.

"You...you're not injured?"

Sabo stared at Rorschach, who remained calm, and his eyes twitched violently.

The combined power of their attack just now was enough to rival even a Marine Admiral.

But Luo Xia looked full of energy and showed no signs of injury.

Luo Xia grinned and pointed to the bloodstains at the corner of his mouth, "Didn't you see I vomited blood? I suffered internal injuries, and they're very serious."

"Ha, nobody would believe that."

Sabo rolled his eyes.

"Alright, Jasmine, tidy up and get a decent house ready. I need to have a good talk with Lieutenant General Rorschach."

Dorag clapped his hands, pulled off the hood covering his head, and a rare smile appeared on his weathered face as he looked at Rorschach.

Rorschach glanced at the mess at his feet and the corpses scattered around him, shook his head and said, "There's no need. The main reason I wanted to come and see you, Mr. Dragon, was to thank you in person and, by the way, to talk to you about... some of my thoughts on this world."

Dragon's eyes flashed, and his voice was deep, "Then it's even more necessary to be more formal. With your current status and position, and your potential future role in the Navy, you deserve our most gracious reception."

He glanced at Sabo and the others, then turned to Rorschach with a hint of apology, saying, "Please allow me to apologize on behalf of Sabo and the others for their impulsive behavior. I hope you won't take it to heart."

"Mr. Dragon, you're too kind. We were just exchanging pointers earlier."

As she spoke, Jasmine bent down, grabbed the ground beneath her feet, and shook it as if lifting a blanket.

Instantly, the ground rippled like waves, shaking off the pebbles and clods of earth, and smoothing out the pits and hollows.

Then, she stretched out her two large hands, like a child building a sandcastle on the beach, folding the hard ground into a simple house.

Meanwhile, a flat round table and a series of stone chairs protruded from the floor of the room.

After doing all this, Jasmine bent down and lifted the wall of the makeshift house, her right hand gesturing as if to signal.

"Chief, Lieutenant General Rorschach, please take a seat."

Dorrag nodded, went in first, and found a chair to sit down.

"Are we inviting you into a trap?"

Luo Xia muttered something under his breath and went straight inside.

No one else came in.

After a while, Betty, along with several revolutionary soldiers, brought some food, drinks, and an oil lamp. The room that Jasmine had prepared was then sealed shut, leaving only Dragon and Rorschach sitting opposite each other.

Dorrag lit the oil lamp, its slightly dim light illuminating the entire stone house and casting the shadows of the two men onto the wall.

Dorrag picked up a jug of wine from the table and poured a bowl of it into the bowl in front of Rorschach.

Rorschach couldn't help but smile wryly, "Mr. Dragon, you don't need to be so polite."

"The conditions are simple, Rorschach, please bear with it. If there's a chance next time, I'll find a more decent place to treat you properly."

Dragon raised his wine bowl, a smile playing on his lips. "You know what? I've wanted to see you for a year now. Back then, I was in the South China Sea and heard about your actions during the coup in the Kingdom of Prince, and your final remarks. From that moment on, I knew that you and I were very similar, the same kind of people. The Revolutionary Army is a better fit for you than the Navy, which has to obey the World Government."

Looking at the excessively young boy before him, Dorrag couldn't help but feel a deep sense of emotion.

So young, yet so outstanding.

The navy is really lucky.

As the leader of the Revolutionary Army, Dragon has been silently observing the development of the Navy all these years. He knows that since the Great Pirate Era started by Roger, the Navy has been relying on the old ways and has not produced any fresh blood like Akainu, Kizaru, and Aokiji.

As a long-time rival, the fact that the enemy has no successors is undoubtedly something to be thankful for.

However, the revolutionaries' sense of relief was unexpectedly shattered by the meteoric rise of this young man.

Moreover, from another perspective, the revolutionary army has also contributed a great deal to the rise of this young man.

At the very least, Rorschach's Devil Fruit ability came from the Revolutionary Army.

He discovered it by chance in the East China Sea two years ago.

It was originally intended for Sabo.
