One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

Amidst the tremendous tremors, the entire towering, thousand-meter-high mountain peak cracked open with thick fissures, spreading down the mountainside like a spider web.

Chapter 483 Blue Scale Faction Traditional Arts

Shockwave Shells, the strongest shellfish from Sky Island, can absorb and store powerful shockwaves, releasing them when needed to create an attack dozens of times stronger than a cannon.

A single strike from the shell can break through the massive tree vines that are tens of meters in diameter.

When fifty shells were fired at once, the terrifying power they caused even Rorschach's eyes to twitch.

He looked at Palmer, whose entire right arm was twisted and whose huge fist was almost shattered, and shook his head repeatedly.

"Pamel needs to change his ways. He's always working himself to the bone. He'll kill himself sooner or later."

Last time in Alabasta, this guy fired fifty volleys at once, shattering Oz's entire skeleton, who was fifty meters tall, and rendering him unable to rise again.

This time, even Nemo, the King Crab Devil Fruit user whose entire body was covered in Armament Haki and had a thick carapace for defense, was directly punched in by this violent punch, which blew out half of his chest cavity and head, leaving him dead beyond any hope of survival.

"What are you doing? Stealing my credit! How dare you! I'm your superior!"

With nowhere to vent his pent-up energy, Bepo was furious and yelled at Pamel in annoyance.

Palmer, however, was clutching his twisted right arm, his face showing both pain and excitement.

He looked at the black patch that had just appeared on the surface of his right fist, excitedly turned to Rorschach, and shouted in an excited voice, "Lieutenant General! Lieutenant General Rorschach! Look! Is this Armament Haki?"

Rorschach smiled and nodded, quite satisfied. "That's right, that's Armament Haki. Congratulations, Pamel. As a giant whose body is far stronger than that of humans, it's rare even in Headquarters to awaken Armament Haki. I believe that once you fully master this power, your combat strength will definitely reach another level, comparable to a Vice Admiral in Headquarters."

Pamel was already quite talented; to possess such formidable strength at around sixty years old was to be considered an outstanding giant warrior, even in the giant village of Elbaf.

Giants have long lifespans, living up to three hundred years or more.

A sixty-year-old giant is equivalent to a fifteen or sixteen-year-old human.

"It really is Armament Haki! Hahaha, I have Haki now! I will become the strongest warrior in Elbaf!"

Upon receiving Rorschach's affirmative reply, Palmer was as excited as a sixty-year-old child, seemingly having completely forgotten his fractured and twisted right arm.

"Armament Haki? What?" Bepo's eyes widened as he stared at the jet-black color on Pamel's hand, his face filled with envy and jealousy. He muttered resentfully, "This isn't fair! I was the one who knocked this guy away. You were just here to pick up the scraps. Why can you awaken Armament Haki while I..."

"Bepo, you've awakened Haki too. Hehe, feel the new power within you, use it, and you'll see it."

Rorschach waved, releasing the mass of seawater floating behind him. He tossed Grace, who was trapped inside, to the ground, grabbed the ground with his right hand, and a square mound of earth rose up. He sat down leisurely, looking at Grace, who was now free from the seawater and whose fishtail had transformed back into a pair of long, smooth, white legs. He smiled and said to Bepo.

"Have I awakened Haki too? Really?"

Upon hearing this, Bepo's eyes lit up, and he quickly followed Rorschach's instructions, calming himself down and carefully experiencing his current power.

Soon, his bear-like face showed the same excitement as Palmer's, as he felt a surge of powerful energy within his body.

Bepo tried for a while and quickly channeled the newborn power, successfully making it appear on the surface of his hands.

The newly awakened Armament Haki only has a simple hardening effect, and its function is actually similar to the Iron Body technique in the Six Powers.

In fact, the Six Styles of Iron Body from the Navy Headquarters is actually a prerequisite for awakening Haki within the Navy.

The stronger one's physical body becomes, the faster one can awaken Armament Haki, a power inherent in everyone's body.

On the other side, Luo, having noticed the situation, suddenly became somewhat flustered.

Caught off guard, his movement slowed for a moment, and Visander seized the opportunity, unleashing a flying slash that struck Luo.

Fortunately, at the crucial moment, he used his Armament Haki-covered Kiku to block most of the slashes, thus avoiding being disemboweled by Visander's sword.

Even so, Luo's clothes were torn by the sword energy, and a blood line burst open on his body, spurting out a large amount of bright red blood.

Luo Xia frowned slightly and turned his head to look at Luo.

He raised his right foot and stepped on Grace's smooth waist and hip curves as she tried to escape, saying calmly, "Luo, you're out of your mind."

Luo shifted his body to dodge Visander's attack, took a deep breath, and forced himself to calm down.

Luo Xia is right, his mentality is indeed a bit off.

Bepo and Palmer's sudden outburst allowed them to join forces and defeat Nemo, whom even he couldn't defeat.

The power that Rorschach displayed was so great that it could instill despair in people.

These pirates, who were exceptionally powerful in Law's eyes, couldn't even withstand a single blow from Law and Xia.

He clearly awakened Observation Haki and Armament Haki long ago, and possessed the Op-Op Fruit ability worth 5 billion Berries, so why couldn't he defeat his opponent so easily?

Even Bepo and Palmer are now almost catching up to him.

How can someone like me face Doflamingo?

A surge of rage welled up within Luo.

"You're too eager for quick results, Luo." Luo Xia ignored the slippery body writhing at his feet, his voice soft and distant as it reached Luo's ears.

"Don't worry about what others do. Just focus on your own work, take it one step at a time, and you'll gradually accumulate strength to achieve the success you desire. No one is born strong. Talents may differ, but you still need to work hard and steadily to become stronger. Bepo and Palmer may not be as talented as you, but they are humble and have always maintained a stable mindset. You, on the other hand, are always influenced by external factors, by me, and by the existence of Doflamingo, affecting your mindset. Remember, to become strong, you must overcome arrogance and impatience, and focus on being the best version of yourself."

"Should I avoid arrogance and impatience, and focus on doing my best? I understand."

Luo let out a long breath, and the restlessness in his heart gradually subsided.

Just when Luo Xia thought he had finally calmed down, he saw Luo clench his right fist, a dazzling electric light flashing on his thumb, and stab it hard towards his heart.

"Overload mode! On!"

"boom!"

Luo's body trembled, his heart pounded like a drum, pumping massive amounts of blood and qi, causing his blood to flow wildly and rapidly, turning his skin instantly bright red, like a branding iron.

"ROOM!"

The air current swirled within the five fingers of his outstretched right hand, instantly spreading out and enveloping the entire mountaintop, its diameter expanding to its maximum, reaching a full two thousand meters.

The long sword he held in his hand was wrapped in black domineering aura. He gripped it with both hands and slashed diagonally down at the back of Vinsend, who was flashing away again.

"Cut!"

"Shh!"

A long, narrow, black crack appeared instantly on the wide, hard mountainside and stretched downwards.

Then, as the numerous pirate soldiers at the foot of the mountain stared in disbelief, half of the mountain peak was cleaved diagonally in half by Luo's sword, and hundreds of thousands of tons of rocks were enveloped by an invisible force and floated in the sky.

Sensing the deadly danger, Wisend turned around with lightning speed and swung his sword.

"Shh!"

A thick, flying slash shot out from the thin sword in his hand, just barely blocking Luo's attack at the last second.

The next instant.

Luo's figure disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of Visander in an instant.

The surgical space that had enveloped the entire mountaintop instantly contracted, transforming into a ring of fluctuating energy. He slashed it across the blade of the Ghost Crying Longsword he was holding, and then stabbed at Visander with lightning speed.

"Useless! Your strength, your domineering aura, your swordsmanship are all useless to me! If it weren't for this strange ability of yours, I would have killed you long ago... What?"

Visander's words came to an abrupt halt as he stared in disbelief at the longsword piercing his chest.

He had clearly blocked Luo's attack with his sword.

But why?

He raised his gaze and saw the hilt of the knife in Luo's hand, as well as the half of the blade that he had blocked.

The other half of the blade disappeared abruptly, entering his chest and stabbing out from behind him.

Moreover, the size of this long sword was enlarged by five or six times, like a weapon that only a giant could use, and it was more than ten meters long, extending out from behind him.

Strangely, Wisend did not feel the pain of his body being pierced by a sharp blade.

What kind of bizarre ability is this?

Wisend flicked his wrist, wanting to continue swinging his sword.

He can still move; he's not dead yet.

Then, he saw the man holding the knife in front of him tremble.

"ROOM! Wave Impact!"

"boom!"

Wisend's eyes bulged out, his whole body swelled up from the inside out, and countless drops of blood gushed out from his pores.

It felt as if a cannonball had been inserted into his body, exploding from the inside and shaking his internal organs, causing him immense damage in an instant.

No matter how strong a person is, their internal body is still vulnerable.

This is why only those who have mastered advanced Armament Haki can be called true powerhouses.

In the new world, Haki is widespread, and everyone can use it to a certain extent, possessing powerful body defense.

Without special attack moves, hitting anyone is like hitting iron.

With the internal destructive power of advanced Armament Haki, ordinary Haki users simply cannot withstand the impact of this power.

The ability that Law is displaying at this moment is similar to high-level Armament Haki.

"Boom!"

With blood gushing from his body, Visander plummeted to the ground along with the section of the fallen mountain.

Looking at Luo, whose body was completely red, like a boiled shrimp, Luo Xia couldn't help but shake his head.

He couldn't understand what was going on.

Why is everyone starting to use his overdrive mode?

This is a technique that can shorten one's lifespan. Like Luffy's Gear Second, it uses a significant increase in blood flow to unleash tremendous power in a short period of time.

Rorschach felt he had to stop this traditional art of seeking quick success and making rash advances.

The ultimate move is a trump card used at crucial moments.

When Luo brought over the heavily injured Visander and tossed him in front of Luo Xia like a dead dog, a look of despair finally appeared in Grace's eyes, who was completely naked.

Rorschach thought for a moment, then took out a Den Den Mushi from his pocket.

He wanted to ask Sengoku whether these pirates should be killed.
