One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

Nemo and Grace's shouts startled the pirates. Before they could even steal a glance at Grace's voluptuous and alluring figure, they began shouting to wake their sleeping companions.

However, many pirates were awakened.

But the banquet lasted a long time tonight, and almost all the pirates drank a lot of alcohol, so even when they woke up, most of them were still dizzy and slurred their words, let alone having much fighting power.

Seeing this, Nemo, who was haphazardly putting on clothes, couldn't help but look at Grace, who was already dressed and looked like a noblewoman.

Seeing Nemo looking at her, Grace understood, chuckled, parted her red lips, tilted her slender, snow-white neck back, and let out a piercing noise that sounded like fingernails scratching steel plates. The sound made the eardrums of the surrounding pirates, who were in a daze, ache, and they couldn't help but groan and cover their ears in pain.

The stinging sensation instantly cleared most of the alcohol from my head.

At this moment, disturbed by the riot, Visander, wearing a blood-red cloak and a magnificent noble robe, slowly walked out of his residence.

"Has the navy arrived? Do you know who's leading them?"

His voice was calm and composed, showing no sign of panic, and he appeared very calm.

He was also looking at the banshee Grace.

Grace frowned slightly and said in a crisp voice, "There are many people coming, and there is also noise interference from the steamships. I couldn't hear who their highest-ranking officer was for the time being, but I heard someone shout 'Lieutenant General'."

"Vice Admiral? Heh, that's normal. A naval base in the New World is usually commanded by at least a vice admiral. I just wonder which vice admiral will be coming."

As the three talked, surrounded by a group of noisy pirates, they walked out of the dilapidated fortress and stood atop a towering hillside, looking down at the sea below.

In front of G5 Island, on the dark sea illuminated by the night, eleven large warships were lined up, breaking through the water and charging menacingly toward the island.

"Damn, so many warships? Is this the Naval Buster Call?" Nemo, the biggest of the group, looked rather grim and began to consider whether or not to retreat.

If it really is the Navy's Buster Call fleet, then there are at least five Vice Admirals from Headquarters, plus more than 8,000 elite naval personnel.

That level of combat power is enough to destroy the island from a distance.

Grace didn't speak, but listened attentively.

Her ears on either side of her cheeks, unlike those of humans, are recessed inwards like two vortexes.

This unique physical structure allows her to hear faint sounds from miles away.

So, when Rorschach's warships approached within a certain range of G5, they were spotted in advance by Grace, who had keen hearing.

She listened intently for a while, then her expression suddenly relaxed, and she smiled, "Don't worry, it's not a Buster Call. There's only one vice admiral among the marines who came. Besides, given our current terrain advantage, even if it were a Buster Call, they couldn't reach this high mountain."

"So, you're planning to have us fight the Navy on this mountain?" Nemo glanced greedily at the deep cleavage exposed beneath Grace's snow-white collarbone, and a stirring of desire rose within him. He felt that this woman was truly an alluring enchantress.

"Of course, we should defend the hilltop and use our superior position to attack from above. There's no need for us to run down and face the warships' gunfire head-on. This mountain is so high; by the time they get up there, they'll be exhausted and won't have the strength to fight us."

Nemo was somewhat displeased by Grace's words, but he didn't say much. He simply ordered his pirates to set up the crude cannons and arrange for men to guard the key points on the hillside, preparing to meet the navy's charge.

In fact, given his consistent style, when encountering the navy or the like, he would charge headlong into battle with a reckless and fearless fighting style.

But Nemo, with his muscular physique, wasn't a brainless fool. He wouldn't be so stupid as to let his pirates withstand the firepower of more than ten large warships.

Immediately, the hilltop teemed with people, and more than 1,700 pirates, led by their elite officers, began to stand ready for battle.

Nemo, Grace, and Wisend each drew their weapons and looked down at the warship that was approaching the edge of the island.

On the Kirin, Luo Xia squinted at the towering mountain in front of him. With a swift movement, he grabbed Pamel and Bepo with one hand each, and flew straight towards the mountaintop, stepping on the air.

At the same time, Luo, who was already prepared behind him, spread his right hand and the rotating surgical space suddenly expanded, reaching an astonishing diameter of over a thousand meters.

"ROOM! The baton!"

"Shh!"

The elite team of the G5 branch, encased in the surgical space shield, along with the ten rear admirals assigned to Rorschach by headquarters, and the five hundred prisoners from Impel Down's fourth level, including the Deckard brothers, vanished from the deck of the warship in an instant.

When they reappeared, a large group of people had appeared out of thin air on the mountaintop, landing behind the terrified pirates. They drew their swords and grinned as they attacked the panicked pirates.

"Hahaha! Kill them all! Reduce their sentences! Become a naval commander under Vice Admiral Rorschach!"

The Deckard brothers, appearing as one, had bloated bodies and cat claws on their hands. They viciously pounced on the nearest pirate, one on each side.

Grace looked at Rorschach descending from the sky with a hint of surprise and uncertainty in her eyes.

"Lieutenant General Luo Xia... Could it be Lieutenant General Lan Lin?!"

Chapter 480 Devastating Victory

"Damn it! What kind of ability is this? Why did these marines suddenly appear on the mountaintop?"

"Fight! Fight! Kill them all! Kill these damned marines!"

On the mountaintop, the pirates, who were focused on guarding the warships docking below, were terrified when hundreds of marines suddenly appeared behind them.

The sudden appearance of this navy rendered their defensive measures, which they had implemented in a short period of time, useless.

The cannons that had just been set up were kicked over by the ravenous marines before they could even fire. The pirates who were crouching next to the cannons were also beheaded by swords, and blood gushed out like fountains.

But when the panicked pirates turned around to fight back, they found that the hundreds of marines in front of them were all wearing ridiculous blue and white sailor uniforms, without even an epaulette on their shoulders, let alone the justice cape on their backs.

The pirates were initially stunned, then burst into laughter. The panic on their faces vanished in an instant as they regained their confidence and, laughing, brandished their swords as they charged towards the oncoming marines.

"Hahaha, am I seeing things? They're all greenhorns from the navy, not a single officer. Looks like the last war really took a toll on your navy. Even newly recruited privates are being sent to the battlefield. What a heartless navy, sending these poor guys to their deaths like this, hahaha..."

A high-ranking pirate with a bounty of 110 million Berries, a swordsman on the Cancer Pirates' ship, was overwhelmed by a dozen agile naval recruits before his mocking laughter could even finish.

He swung his longsword, unleashing a flash of cold light capable of cleaving through steel.

The swordsman believed that his flying slash would easily cut the dozen or so naval recruits rushing towards him in two.

However, the next moment, his smile froze on his face, and disbelief appeared in his eyes.

"Clang!"

With a loud bang, his long sword was blocked by two fat men who rushed in from the left and right.

Then, seven or eight naval privates, from various fierce and tricky angles, swiftly and sharply thrust the swords and blades they held into the swordsman's body.

"Damn it! You guys aren't recruits at all!"

The swordsman was terrified and was about to draw his sword to block.

"Hehehe, we are indeed new recruits, but before becoming new recruits under Vice Admiral Rorschach, I was a pirate supernova with a bounty of 150 million Berries!"

The Deckard brothers grinned, their four arms swelled up, and with a burst of immense strength, they forcefully pressed down on the swordsman's longsword, sending him flying backward with a loud bang.

Before the swordsman could land and regain his footing, the people behind Deckard swarmed forward, slashing wildly with their swords.

"Pfft pfft!"

The sound of flesh being sliced ​​open by a sharp blade rang out. The Iron-Cutting Swordsman, who had a bounty of 110 million Berries, couldn't even last three rounds before being hacked to death by a group of naval recruits.

"Hahaha! His head is mine! This guy's pretty strong, he'll definitely earn a lot of military merits."

A burly man, four meters tall, grabbed the swordsman who had been killed, laughed, and chopped off his head with a single stroke. He then grabbed the man's hair and casually tied it to his waist, his face full of joy.

At this moment, the pirates around them realized that something was wrong.

In just a brief encounter, hundreds of pirates were cut down on the spot by these naval recruits dressed as privates.

Among those pirates who died tragically, there were quite a few with bounties of over 100 million and who were high-ranking officers in the three major pirate crews.

Even so, they couldn't hold out for long under the siege of a dozen or even dozens of navy soldiers before being cut down and killed.

The pirates were horrified to discover that these suddenly appearing naval recruits were even more ruthless than they, the pirates who had been operating in the New World.

"Damn it! These guys aren't some lousy recruits at all! Run! Run down the mountain!"

"Captain! Captain Nemo! Help me! I don't want to die!"

The pirates were thrown into chaos, routed by five hundred marine prisoners from the fourth level of Impel Down, fleeing in terror and screaming as they ran down the mountain.

The situation changed so quickly that even Rorschach hadn't anticipated it.

He stroked his chin, watching Deckard Ban and his crew chase the pirates like tigers among sheep, and clicked his tongue, muttering to himself, "Huh? What's going on? Did I underestimate Deckard Ban and his crew, or overestimate the pirates of the New World? How come these pirates are being defeated so quickly?"

Rorschach, however, did not realize how formidable a force of five hundred prisoners from the fourth level of Impel Down was.

In Impel Down, the minimum bounty for a prisoner to be imprisoned in the fourth level of the Scorching Hell is over 50 million Berries.

For example, in the comics, Crocodile's quick-slasher Dazbonis is imprisoned in the scorching hell.

Pirates like Bon Clay and Buggy the Clown only deserve to be locked in the first three levels of hell.

An army of 500 pirates with bounties exceeding 50 million is absolutely comparable to 500 naval officers.

Moreover, these are elite officers without any exaggeration.

After all, someone who has been imprisoned in the fourth level of Impel Down and tortured until now is definitely not an exaggeration.

In the manga, Buggy recruited a bunch of hapless prisoners, and even Whitebeard had to think twice before hiring him. Later, he was even invited by the Navy to become a Shichibukai.

At Rorschach's current level, he feels that pirates like the Deckard brothers seem pitifully weak.

In reality, pirates with bounties exceeding 50 million are considered core members of pirate crews, even in the New World.

Therefore, thousands of pirates from the Cancer Pirates, Banshee Pirates, and Lonely Pirates were crushed and fled down the mountain by the five hundred marines led by the Deckard brothers.

At that moment, eleven warships, led by the Kirin, also turned their hulls sideways, revealing rows of dark cannon barrels facing the island.

As the fleeing pirates on the mountaintop ran down the mountain, tiny sparks of light appeared on the dark sea.

Then came a series of deafening artillery roars.

"Boom boom boom boom boom!"

The double-layered cannons on the warship roared under the moonlight, and bursts of intense fire instantly tore through the night, exploding on G5 Island, sending rocks flying and pirates screaming as they were blown away by the cannonballs.

He was lucky enough to be hit by the shockwave, but he only suffered broken bones and vomited blood.

The unlucky one was hit directly by the shell and exploded on the spot, turning into a rain of blood that irrigated the cratered earth.

With wolves in front and tigers behind, the pirate crews of the three groups all looked on in despair.

On the mountain, an even more ferocious navy, grinning maliciously, charged forward; below, deafening artillery fire relentlessly bombarded the area, showing no sign of stopping.

Amidst the roar of artillery fire, the entire island seemed to vibrate and buzz.

Standing before the mountaintop fortress, Nemo and his two companions, who were fighting Law, Bepo, and Pamel, looked at the pirate corpses lying scattered all around them and their expressions changed drastically, and they began to consider retreating.

They hadn't expected that this group of naval soldiers would be so ferocious, utterly routing their pirates in just a few minutes.

What terrified the three even more was the naval vice admiral standing not far away.

"Damn it! We got screwed over by that bastard Doflamingo! If I had known that the person coming here was Vice Admiral Bluescale who killed Wang Zhi and Golden Lion, I wouldn't have come even if it were ten billion Berries!"
