One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

Lark plucked a black, fluffy cloud from his head and handed it to Rorschach.

If you don't look closely, no one would be able to tell that this thing is actually alive.

Luo Xia held the black cloud in his hand, and a pitiful face appeared on the surface of the cloud, looking at Luo Xia with some fear.

Seeing Zeus's expression, which looked like he was about to cry, Rorschach smiled and clenched his fist.

"Oh!"

He crushed the Zeus in his hand.

"Ah! Don't kill me! Lieutenant General!" Zeus let out a terrified scream, and then materialized in mid-air around Rorschach.

It was so scared that tears came to its eyes.

In Zeus's eyes, Rorschach was even more terrifying than an old woman.

Rorschach reached out and grabbed the terrified Zeus, taking him back into his grasp and carrying him into the cabin.

"Don't worry, if you behave well, I won't kill you."

After everyone on the Kirin left, only Luo Xia remained.

He went directly into the cabin, reached out and grasped the golden joystick, activating the ship's internal electrical drive and initiating the steam chamber to prepare for the creation of thunderclouds.

Rorschach did not open the wing of the Kirin, nor did he activate the wind-blown shell embedded in the bottom of the ship.

This time, he won't use wind power, as that would create too much noise and wouldn't be able to conceal the Qilin's movements.

"Zizzizi."

As Rorschach's body began to swell and grow taller, thick currents of electricity rapidly coursed across the surface of his muscular body, flowing through the cabins, decks, and masts in an instant, rippling like water in every corner of the Kirin.

Rorschach raised both hands.

"Magnetic control! Start!"

With a thought, the massive amount of electricity was converted into magnetic force to control the metal, which was applied to the gun barrels and various parts of the warship's armor.

The next moment, the massive Qilin warship began to rise little by little, slowly leaving the sea surface without causing much of a commotion. It simply continued to increase its altitude, flying straight up to a height of several thousand meters.

Below, eleven warships formed a huge fan-shaped formation, steadily approaching the waters surrounding Oven Island.

When they got close enough, they were immediately spotted by pirates anchored off the island, who began to organize a counterattack.

In an instant, the battle between the two sides broke out on the vast sea outside the island.

The deafening roar of artillery fire heralded the start of this war.

Meanwhile, Luo Xia had already piloted the Kirin straight up to an altitude of seven or eight thousand meters, and began to frantically create thunderclouds using the power room. He also had Zeus merge into the thunderclouds to accelerate their formation and continuously gather the lightning generated.

It took a good ten minutes, until the entire Kirin warship was completely covered by a huge dark cloud with a diameter of five or six kilometers, before Luo Xia manipulated the wind to guide the inky cloud slowly to the sky above Oven Island.

Under the interference of such incredibly violent lightning power, Rorschach believed that even if the people on Oven Island had strong Observation Haki, they would absolutely not be able to sense the Kirin and him hidden in the thunderclouds.

Standing in the middle of a raging, boundless sea of ​​lightning, Luo Xia transformed into his eight-meter-tall blue scale form, basking in the monstrous thunderstorm. He slowly raised his muscular right arm, which resembled a coiled dragon, and aimed it at the two towering figures who were fighting fiercely in the center of Oven Island.

Edward Weevil, and Katakuri!

As for that old woman, Bakkin.

He was holding Pudding, watching the battle from a distance with an extremely ugly expression.

More than her concern for Weevil's safety, Bakkin was clearly heartbroken over the large number of Berries destroyed in their battle.

She was holding her ally Doflamingo's Den Den Mushi in her hand, and was dialing repeatedly.

To Bakkin's disappointment and frustration, for some reason, Doflamingo's Den Den Mushi remained unanswered.

"Damn it! It's all that bastard son Lingling's fault. He must have secretly destroyed our pirate ship. Otherwise, I would have left with all that money long ago. Why have we been dragging this out until now?"

Bakkin's wrinkled face was incredibly pale. The more she thought about it, the more frustrated she became. She couldn't help but scream at Weevil in the distance, "Weevil! Kill that bastard quickly, let's get out of here! If Lingling comes, we really won't be able to leave!"

“Okay, Mom, Weevil will kill him now.”

Weevil responded to her words in a muffled voice, ignoring the fact that his muscular chest had been pierced by Katakuri's spinning Greatsword, Tsuchiryu, leaving a gruesome bloody hole. He roared and swung his thick arm, gripping the heavy pheasant sword, down at Katakuri.

"Boom!"

The blade, coated in jet-black Armament Haki, slashed vertically from a distance, causing the air in front of Weevil to howl and groan under its strain.

The terrifying physical power, like a flash flood, poured down on Katakuri.

As the pheasant blade pointed, a straight, deep abyss-like crack appeared in the ground ahead.

Faced with such a terrifying slash, Katakuri remained expressionless, taking two steps to the left with his exaggeratedly long legs, easily dodging Weevil's attack that was powerful enough to cleave an island.

"All they can do is brute force and slash. They have absolutely no combat intelligence. Is this the level of the newly appointed Shichibukai? It's truly disappointing."

Katakuri's expression was stern. His tall body suddenly lunged forward, twisting and changing shape, transforming in the blink of an eye into a giant, rapidly rolling donut.

"Boom boom boom!"

Despite Weevil's powerful and continuous slashing, he failed to hit the rapidly rolling donut.

When the donut was still more than ten meters away from Weevil, Katakuri suddenly appeared out of the donut and, using the huge momentum of his forward movement, flung out his right arm, which had expanded more than ten times, covered with countless spikes, and wrapped with thick, high-level Armament Haki.

"Chop! Rice cake!"

The air exploded beneath that enormous black arm, and a terrifying force crashed down, slamming solidly into Weevil's skull.

"boom!"

Amidst a deafening explosion, blood gushed from Weebull's eyes, ears, nose, and mouth like a high-pressure water jet.

His massive body, nearly seven meters tall, was like a giant nail, struck by Katakuri's extremely violent blow, piercing straight through the earth and sinking dozens of meters deep into the ground.

Just as Katakuri unleashed this powerful attack on Weevil, Rorschach, thousands of meters above the ground, narrowed his eyes and swung his raised right arm down sharply.

"Lei Ying!"

Chapter 497 Chaotic Battle! Katakuri!

Eight thousand meters above Oven Island, in the center of a dark thundercloud seven or eight thousand meters in diameter, stood Rorschach, covered in azure scales, resembling a non-human monster. He was immersed in a raging sea of ​​thunder, his muscular right arm raised high, his outstretched hand holding a sizzling, leaping sun of lightning, like a god of thunder from mythology.

As Katakuri unleashed a powerful blow at Weevil from the island below, his right arm, which had been poised to strike, suddenly swung down.

The already restless, thunderous sun, with this wave of its hand, seemed to have a breach opened, as if a floodgate had been opened.

"Boom!"

A deafening thunderclap boomed over the Oven Island.

The next instant.

A massive bolt of lightning, tens of meters in diameter, crashed down from the dark clouds above the sky, resembling a waterfall cascading from the heavens. Its dazzling light pierced the hazy mist of the surrounding sea, and even from hundreds of miles away, this radiant bolt of lightning could be seen.

Although the lightning strikes, being artificially manipulated, do not reach the true speed of light, their speed still exceeds dozens of times the speed of sound.

Eight kilometers is but a blink of an eye.

A split second before the lightning struck, Katakuri, who had just slammed Weevil deep into the ground, suddenly changed his expression. He had no time to dodge and could only transform his body into an elemental form at the last second, turning it into a flowing mochi and merging it into the earth.

The next moment, a massive pillar of lightning, like a divine spear of punishment, descended from the sky and struck the center of Oven Island where he and Weevil were located.

It was as if hundreds of explosive rocks had been detonated in an instant; the ground struck by the lightning bolt shattered with a deafening roar.

The ground within a radius of several kilometers cracked and collapsed inch by inch under the terrifying bombardment of thunder, splitting open countless thick cracks.

The massive explosion transformed into a powerful shockwave, instantly flattening all the protrusions on the island and violently slamming them into the sea.

As Bakkin, who was holding Pudding and watching the battle from the island's outskirts, was stunned, he was struck by the violent impact. Pain flashed across his wrinkled old face as he opened his mouth wide and coughed up a lot of blood. Together with Pudding, whose bones had also been broken, they were blown hundreds of meters away without any chance to fight back and crashed into the sea.

The surging impact continued unabated, causing the sea outside Oven Island to surge with waves, creating a tsunami tens of meters high that instantly shattered several of Big Mom's pirate ships.

The G5 warships were also pushed back by the undulating seawater, retreating hundreds of meters.

The thunderclouds that had released a massive amount of lightning slowly dispersed, and Rorschach looked down from the sky and saw that Oven Island, which was originally filled with buildings, had now become a huge basin.

At the center of the island, a huge depression with a diameter of over a thousand meters appeared, with countless cracks spreading out, almost causing the entire island to collapse and be destroyed.

Seeing such terrifying power, even Rorschach was speechless.

A single, terrifying strike from Lei Ying!

"Zeus! Go help the lark and do your job well, or I'll send you back to your mother later."

Luo Xia raised his hand and pushed the Qilin beneath him. The immense magnetic force propelled the warship, which was also bathed in lightning, to plummet towards the sea off the island like a meteor.

On the Kirin, Zeus, the thundercloud satiated by a large amount of dissipated lightning, was happily stroking his round body.

When it heard Rorschach's voice, the satisfaction on its face vanished instantly, and a very human-like fear appeared in its anthropomorphic eyes.

"Rest assured, Lieutenant General! I will absolutely cooperate fully with Miss Hibari!"

It was created by Charlotte Linlin using a part of her own soul, and now it has completely betrayed her.

If it is returned, it will definitely be swallowed by the old lady and return to its origin.

Now, there's only one way out: to stick with Rorschach and Lark.

After letting the Kirin and Zeus go, Rorschach grinned, revealing his snow-white fangs. His muscular body sank, and he plummeted downwards.

As he deliberately propelled himself downwards, the speed of his descent increased dramatically. The wind howled fiercely in his ears, and the deep blue aura surging and expanding from his body rubbed against the air, gradually generating scorching flames.

At this moment, Rorschach transformed into a humanoid meteorite, burning with surging heat, and plunged straight down from the sky towards the earth, heading straight for Katakuri, who was firmly locked onto by his Observation Haki.

"Katakuri! It seems it wasn't so easy to take you down after all! Charlotte Family's greatest masterpiece!"

Amidst the scorching heat, a gigantic fist, wreathed in deep blue aura and crackling with crimson flames and flashing lightning, crashed down upon the earth, which had turned into a white, glutinous mass.

"boom!"

The ground, which was hundreds of meters in radius, exploded with a loud bang, and countless sticky glutinous rice balls were scattered all over the sky.

A tall figure hidden deep within the surging glutinous rice balls opened its mouth full of fangs and sharp teeth, letting out a roar from the depths of its throat. Its right fist clenched, and its right arm instantly expanded hundreds of times, enveloping in a dark and domineering aura, resembling a black mountain, and thunderously pushed towards Luo Xia's giant fist.

"Super Strength Rice Cake!"

The two fists, vastly different in size, collided with a deafening roar, like meteorites hitting the earth.

"boom!"

A violent force exploded at the point where their fists collided. The moment Katakuri made contact with Rorschach's fist, his expression changed again. His brows furrowed slightly, and without thinking, he decisively severed his mushy right arm and his tall body dodged to the side.

The instant he leaped away, the giant arm that shot out like a small black mountain crumbled piece by piece under the impact of an unstoppable force. The black domineering aura could not protect the glutinous rice ball beneath it, which was blasted into the air and turned into countless glutinous rice balls flying everywhere.
