One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

This will help them learn to be independent, which is a good thing.
There is no such thing as child labor in this world.
Many times, people are even willing to risk their lives with a knife just to get a bite to eat.
In addition, some adults, after Rorschach and his group rescued many surrounding island towns, took the initiative to come to G5, wanting to settle down here.
Rorschach did not expose their desire to seek refuge.
Instead, they arranged places for these people to settle down behind the fortress.
G5 Island is very large, even larger than G1, with a diameter of more than ten kilometers and an area of more than two hundred square kilometers.
The island has plains, lakes, hills, and forests, making it a resource-rich and abundant place.
It would be far too desolate to have a naval base that only accommodates a few thousand people.
Population is crucial for long-term development in the new world.
Therefore, Rorschach welcomed these civilians who came seeking asylum with their families, and was eager for them to settle down on the island.
He believes that over time, a large population center will gradually form on G5 Island.
At that time, many things in the base will be available on the island, just like the Qianyan Island branch in Beihai, so that everything will not have to be purchased by sea or transferred from headquarters.
Then there are the Deckard brothers, the prisoners he brought out of Impel Down to join the army.
In the past two months, there have been quite a few people who have tried to escape or who have been unable to control their nature and wanted to do bad things.
Although their hearts had long been removed by Law and stored at Marine Headquarters.
Even though they knew their lives were in Rorschach's hands, the lawless nature of pirates still made some unwilling to serve under him and want to rebel.
Rorschach had no intention of showing any mercy to these people.
If discovered, they will be executed immediately.
They didn't even have a chance to beg for mercy or repent.
Although he would have to dedicate his entire life to the Navy and never have the chance to leave the G5 branch.
They either die in the war against the New World pirates or are sent back to Impel Down; there are no other options.
Furthermore, the military merits required for promotion were several times that of regular marines.
It seems very heartless.
But being able to leave Impel Down and escape that hell on earth is already considered an act of leniency for these criminals who have committed grave offenses.
If they still don't cherish this and properly repent, then Rorschach will have no choice but to send them on their way.
Speaking of which, those two fat guys from Deckard Ban are very cooperative; they're working harder than anyone else when it comes to killing pirates.
Furthermore, there's a tendency for him to become a sycophant to Rorschach, which makes Bepo feel somewhat threatened.
These past few days, Bepo has been tinkering with the Azure Dragon form ability he just acquired, hoping to rise to the top like Rorschach and become the second-in-command of G5, second only to the leader.
Unfortunately, that fruit was an artificial Devil Fruit after all. Although it seemed to have no side effects, it couldn't be like a normal Mythical Zoan fruit, where one could immediately control the transformation between human and beast forms after eating it. Instead, one would first transform into beast form.
Moreover, it was still in its juvenile stage.
This frustrated Bepo, who blamed himself for not being able to become stronger, believing that he had wasted a good fruit.
Rorschach offered some words of comfort, then took out the notebook Frisis had given him and tossed it to Bepo, telling him to study it carefully.
"Speaking of which, Hibari should be arriving soon, right? Girls change so much as they grow up; I wonder what she looks like now that I haven't seen her for three months?"
Rorschach then remembered that Zephyr had just called to say that he had given Hibari and Enel a special training session to solidify their Haki and Devil Fruit abilities. The two of them were now on a warship heading towards the G5 branch.
With the added power of their electric abilities, Rorschach was confident he could go toe-to-toe with Charlotte Linlin.
Just then, Luo Xia's expression changed, the corners of his mouth curved slightly, and he looked up at the sky in front of him.
"Enel, it's been a few days, are you itching for a beating?"
"Zizzizi."
A barely perceptible electrical noise rang out in the air, and the next instant, a thick bolt of lightning appeared in the sky, like a spear of divine punishment, shooting towards Luo Xia.
Rorschach stood still, letting the tens of millions of volts of electricity strike his body.
He was struck by lightning, but he was completely unharmed.
Instead, his aura fluctuated slightly, increasing a little, making him look more energetic.
"You bastard, you're still as arrogant and annoying as ever! But I'm not the same as before. I've learned Armament Haki now!"
"Two hundred million volts of discharge! Mighty weaponry! Thunder Dragon!"
In the sky in front of the fortress, a huge mass of surging lightning gathered out of thin air, condensing into Enel's towering form as the god of thunder. With his wide lightning palms outstretched, he shot a massive, menacing lightning dragon toward Rorschach.
Rorschach could vaguely see the black Armament Haki attached to the shimmering thunder dragon's body, which increased the dragon's power by more than double.
"It looks pretty good, but this fortress is newly built. If you keep messing around like this, you'll have to fix it yourself if it collapses later."
Luo Xia struck out with lightning speed, his deep blue domineering energy surging out like a tsunami. From a distance of more than ten meters, it was like the qi from a martial arts novel he had read in his previous life, smashing Enel's lightning dragon and slamming into his face in Enel's shocked and angry gaze.
"Oh!"
With a sharp crack, Enel groaned, his head spinning from Rorschach's slap. He transformed into a thick bolt of lightning, streaking across the sky and shooting directly into the sea, creating a huge spray that startled Mia and the others who were washing clothes on the beach.
At the inner bay harbor, Pamel shrugged, silently put down his work, jumped into the sea, and swam toward Enel, who was sinking into the ocean.
After a while, another snow-white cloud drifted into the sky in front of Luo Xia, bringing a gentle smile to his face.
"Hibari, you..."
Before he finished speaking, the clouds in the sky rapidly contracted and transformed into a petite figure, which suddenly descended and, like a swallow returning to its nest, rushed into his arms.
Luo Xia blinked, and felt a fragrant breeze. Then a soft, delicate body pressed tightly against his chest. Two amazingly elastic mounds bumped against his heart, making his blood rush and his mouth dry.
When Luo Xia looked down, he saw the little head of the lark with her ponytail, snuggling into his arms like a kitten, making mumbling sounds.
"Brother Luo Xia, I miss you so much."
Luo Xia felt a surge of warmth in his heart and couldn't help but reach out his large hand, subconsciously supporting Yun Que's pert bottom and lifting her up.
Their eyes met, and Yun Que's pretty face immediately turned pink. She lowered her head like a quail, not daring to look into Luo Xia's burning gaze.
An atmosphere of ambiguity is rapidly spreading in the air.
Just then, a very unpleasant cough rang out in the passageway not far away, startling the two young people who were hugging each other.
When she saw Luo approaching, Yun Que blushed so much that her ears went weak, and she clung to Luo Xia like a boneless octopus.
Luo Xia, however, was thick-skinned. He coughed lightly, trying to appear calm, and then looked at Luo while holding the shy Yun Que in his arms.
"Is there a problem?"
Luo pursed his lips and raised the Den Den Mushi in his hand.
"Although I don't want to bother you at such a crucial moment, the Navy's intelligence personnel in the New World have already discovered Edward Weevil's whereabouts."
"really?"
Rorschach's eyes lit up instantly.
Chapter 495 All-out attack!
"So, Edward Weevil is currently on Oven Island, Big Mom's territory? Lark, how far is that from G5?"
Inside the base commander's office, which was still under renovation, all the key members of the Bluescale faction were gathered for their first meeting since entering the New World.
How to kill Edward Weevil.
Rorschach, Lark, Rorschach, Enel, Bepo, and Palmer sat on either side.
Upon hearing Luo Xia's question, Yun Que looked at the New World nautical chart unfolded in front of her, stretched out her fair fingers, gestured on the map a couple of times, and confidently replied, "Approximately 560 kilometers."
"So far?" Luo Xia suddenly felt a headache coming on.
Given the distance and the notoriously bad weather in the New World, by the time they get there, it'll be too late; Edward Weevil will probably be long gone.
Seeing the undisguised disappointment on Luo Xia's face, Luo knew what he was thinking, so he said, "There might be other twists and turns in the situation."
"Oh? What do you mean by that?" Luo Xia asked, puzzled.
Luo pointed to the circled area of the oven island and said in a deep voice:
"According to the intelligence I just received, Edward Weevil is currently causing a ruckus on Oven Island with his mother, Bagino Stussy. Not only did they rob a large amount of money belonging to the Big Mom Pirates, but more importantly, they also captured Charlotte Linlin's daughter, Charlotte Pudding."
"Because of this, Charlotte Linlin has become furious and is leading her pirate fleet to surround Oven Island. Oven Island is now surrounded on all sides by the Big Mom Pirates, and Edward Weevil is probably trapped with nowhere to escape. By the way, a few days ago, after we left Punk Hazard, a patrol ship at sea spotted Charlotte Katakuri landing on that island."
Hearing Luo's analysis, Luo Xia perked up again and first instructed Palmer and Bepo: "You two go and gather the soldiers immediately and prepare for war."
"Yes!" Bepo and Palmer quickly got up and left.
Then, he chuckled and said, "Katakuri, hey, that coward Doflamingo, he doesn't dare to come himself, but sends someone else instead. He really has no shame as a strongman. I was originally thinking of taking some time to go to Dressrosa and have a heart-to-heart talk with him or something. But now that there are more important things to do, I'll put that matter aside for now and see if I can find an opportunity to take down Edward Weevil."
"Are we going to steal food from Charlotte Linlin's mouth? Won't that be dangerous?" Lark said with some concern.
"In this godforsaken place of the New World, danger lurks everywhere. Don't be fooled by the fact that our G5 branch seems to have established itself. But who knows, the Big Mom Pirates or the Beast Pirates might come one day, and we'll have to fight to the death. Heh, if things go as expected, I think Uncle Sakazuki has probably already gotten that information, right? Hibari, knowing your father so well, what do you think he'll do?"
Luo Xia looked at Yun Que with a smile, which made Yun Que blush. She remembered the tingling sensation on her buttocks when Luo Xia had supported her earlier, and she suddenly didn't dare to meet Luo Xia's eyes.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Hibari hesitated for a moment before stammering, "I think my dad might come over, under the guise of protecting the Seven Warlords of the Sea's allies, to attack the Big Mom Pirates. Although he didn't say it, ever since the G1 Sea Battle, he's been wanting to take down one of the Four Emperors to establish his authority. Charlotte Linlin's Whole Cake Island is the closest to G1, and she's the weakest of the Four Emperors, so this opportunity might be a once-in-a-lifetime chance..."
To establish authority by taking down the Four Emperors?
Luo and Enel gasped in shock.
Luo Neng could say that this was indeed the Admiral Akainu he knew.
He estimated that, let alone Charlotte Linlin, even if Kaido or Whitebeard were to stand in front of him, that man would decisively unleash a scorching magma fist.
The Navy's reputation as a mad dog is not just for show.
I don't know if Hibari's prediction came true.
Just over ten minutes later, Akainu called via Den Den Mushi.
As soon as Rorschach connected, he immediately heard Akainu's instructions.
The four people in the office immediately stood up and obeyed the order.
"G5, listen to my command! All forces, launch an attack! Target: Totto Land, the waters surrounding Oven Island. This time, our mission is... to annihilate the Big Mom Pirates!"
