One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

She grabbed Perospero with her large hand, and with a light step, her body was covered in black domineering aura. Her slender body smashed through the broken cabin wall and rushed out, landing on the ground of Whole Cake Island.

As soon as she rushed out, Smoothie saw Doflamingo hovering a hundred meters above her head, his right hand raised high, and countless tiny threads shooting into the sky like a fountain from his palm. After reaching a certain height, they fell like celestial maidens scattering flowers, shooting towards the coastline of Whole Cake Island.

"Fufufufu, come on! Let's fight like trapped beasts! Only the living can escape this birdcage!"

Chapter 502 Eruption! Limit Break Mode Debuts!

On the oven island.

The shattered earth had completely transformed into a white, glutinous ocean, which, under Katakuri's control, surged towards Rorschach like a boiling tsunami, threatening to engulf him entirely.

Katakuri, now unarmed, did not weaken his offensive; instead, he became even more ferocious.

One by one, spinning donuts emerged from the glutinous ground beneath his feet, sprouting countless sharp spikes. Entangled by an overbearing aura, they turned pitch black and continued to spin, crashing into Luo Xia.

Rorschach's imposing armor expanded, and his eight-meter-tall, monstrous body flashed across the white earth as he rapidly approached Katakuri.

With each stomp of the recurved unicorn's hoof, the sticky, glutinous earth would instantly explode into a huge crater, scattering countless glutinous rice balls of all sizes.

He was like a ferocious humanoid beast that never tires, rampaging across the Nuotuan land.

Wherever it passed, countless glutinous rice balls were smashed to pieces.

The spiky donuts that tumbled and charged forward were smashed into dust in mid-air by Luo Xia's Heavenly Dragon Halberd.

As Rorschach approached within tens of meters of Katakuri, his body crackled with electricity, and his massive form vanished in an instant.

"Lightning-fast shave!"

With a whoosh, the Heavenly Dragon Halberd in his hand slammed down towards the back of Katakuri's head.

The powerful, high-level Haki released a dangerous aura; if it hit someone, even someone as strong as Katakuri would be severely injured.

However, it is obviously impossible to hit a powerful person with Observation Haki who can foresee the future.

"boom!"

The heavy halberd blade smashed through the air, blasting a crater more than ten meters deep into the white earth below.

Katakuri, who was standing still a second ago, has now merged into the white mochi ball beneath his feet, moving swiftly within it and flashing hundreds of meters away in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, countless black spikes suddenly sprang up from the white ground around Luo Xia's body, like inverted stalactites, rolling and stabbing towards him.

"Predicting the future, predicting the future, what a troublesome ability."

Rorschach had a headache. A surge of electricity burst out from his body, shattering the countless spikes that were thrusting at him. He frowned and looked at Katakuri, who was a hundred meters away.

After fighting him for a full four hours, Katakuri finally gave up on his plan to confront him head-on. He began to use the power of his awakened Devil Fruit to transform from a melee berserker into a ranged array master. He would manipulate the glutinous earth from time to time to surround and intercept him, disrupting Rorschach's offensive rhythm.

Unfortunately, he also possesses Observation Haki, which allows him to briefly foresee the future.

Whenever Rorschach bursts into speed and gets close, Katakuri will leave his original position first and appear outside Rorschach's attack range.

Lightning's attack range is indeed very long, but against a powerful opponent like Katakuri, once the distance exceeds 100 meters, unless it is a large-scale move like Lightning Strike, its power will be greatly reduced, allowing him to easily dodge or defeat it.

More than half a day has passed since the start of the battle.

Both of them had sustained numerous injuries, but neither had managed to strike a vital part of the other.

Both sides are currently trying to keep the other tied down here, preventing the other from interfering in the battle on the sea.

Looking at Katakuri, who was standing a hundred meters away and still had plenty of stamina, and seemed capable of fighting for a long time, Rorschach felt increasingly troubled.

This Katakuri really doesn't have any particular weaknesses.

His domineering presence, physical skills, and combat awareness are all at an extremely high level.

Even with a physique slightly weaker than Luo Xia's, he was still enough to crush most of the strongmen on the sea.

It seems that the only way to defeat such an opponent is to keep wasting time with him.

Unless he abandons his advantages and chooses to confront Rorschach head-on, like in the comics.

In that case, Luo Xia would still have a 30% chance of overpowering him with his superior physique in a high-intensity close-quarters combat.

"No, we can't waste time here with this girl. Otherwise, this massive war will end with heavy losses on both sides' lower-ranking soldiers. Even if all her children are wiped out, it won't affect her position as one of the Four Emperors if we can't kill Charlotte Linlin. An Emperor is an Emperor. Only when she dies will the Big Mom Pirates fall apart. I have to go and hold Charlotte Linlin back and help Uncle Sakazuki take her down!"

Rorschach looked at Katakuri, his mind churning with thoughts.

Moreover, if the battle here drags on for too long, who knows if the other four emperors of the New World will come and surround and kill their navy.

What's more, there's that old schemer Doflamingo.

Knowing Rorschach as he does, that bastard is definitely plotting something behind the scenes.

From any perspective, this major conflict between the Big Mom Pirates and the Navy seems far too contrived.

It seems both sides are after that idiot Edward Weevil.

Weebull is an idiot, but Bakkin certainly isn't.

Otherwise, the mother and son would have been killed by the strongmen of the new world long ago. How could they have been able to act recklessly under the name of the white-bearded son until now?

Do you really think Weevil is that strong?

That kind of idiot with all his strength but a muddled brain could probably be easily fooled by a master liar like Usopp.

Now Rorschach has thwarted Doflamingo's plans on Punk Hazard by killing Caesar, who was able to help him create artificial Devil Fruits.

Given Doflamingo's vengeful nature, he's definitely plotting something big behind the scenes, trying to kill me.

and so……

"There's no other way. I can only use the method in Frisis's book to stimulate the potential of the mythical beast species a second time in a short period of time. Although it may shorten my lifespan due to the potential release, I have pure gold. Moreover, I might be able to make up for it after the Qilin form awakens in the future."

Luo Xia made up his mind and immediately took a deep breath without hesitation.

The air within a radius of several hundred meters rushed into his body with his breath, causing a gust of wind to rise from the flat ground.

Rorschach mobilized all the cells in his body, squeezing out all the lightning power generated by the friction between the cells and converging it all towards his heart.

The next instant, his burly body suddenly shuddered, but instead of his muscles swelling and blood vessels dilating as if he were in overload mode, he did not.

Instead, his muscles contracted and tightened abnormally, and his strong body rapidly became lean and wiry, with thick tendons compressed like intertwined steel bars.

At this moment, Luo Xia looked much thinner than before. Bright red blood beads kept seeping out from the gaps in the scales on his body. Then, under the burning heat emanating from his body, they turned into blood-red mist, enveloping Luo Xia.

After becoming thinner, Rorschach's aura changed from robust to sharp and shrewd.

His deep blue vertical pupils had now turned into two dazzling bolts of lightning, and his eyes, ears, nose, and other orifices were spewing out crackling electricity.

"what……"

Rorschach let out a long breath and let out a non-human roar from deep in his throat.

He looked at his grotesque hand with its protruding knuckles and felt a power completely different from that in Overload mode.

This involves using the power of lightning throughout the body to stimulate the heart, release blood and qi, and contract muscles to achieve the most perfect explosive form.

This move puts a greater strain on the body and is more powerful than the Overload mode!

The speed has increased explosively!

Seeing the astonishing change that Rorschach had suddenly undergone, Katakuri, who was standing at a distance meditating, suddenly changed his expression, as if he had foreseen something, and his tall body shot backward.

"not good!"

"This move is a bit like Luffy's Gear Second and Gear Third combined, a double boost in power and speed, let's call it 'Limit Breaking Mode'!"

"Breakthrough Mode, Activate!!"

Rorschach's voice had barely faded when...

The next moment!

The air in front of Katakuri exploded with a deafening roar. A skeletal hand, crackling with lightning and surging with domineering power, shattered the atmosphere, obscuring Katakuri's vision as he was being forced back. It then slammed down on Katakuri's face.

"boom!"

Chapter 503 Extreme Speed! Katakuri's Defeat!

fast!

too fast!

The speed that Rorschach unleashed in that instant was so fast that it exceeded Katakuri's reaction limit.

Even though Rorschach's Observation Haki had foreseen the attack a second before Rorschach made his move, Katakuri still couldn't dodge it.

A skeletal, withered hand, trailing a blood-red aura like a ribbon, grabbed Katakuri's face. Powerful Armament Haki captured his physical form, and the five-meter-tall Katakuri was slammed heavily onto the ground!

"boom!"

With a muffled bang, the ground exploded, sending countless chunks of mud and rubble flying everywhere.

Katakuri's head was pressed down by Rorschach, who was shaped like a skull, and slammed deep into the ground.

"Five Hundred Million Volts! Senro Thunder Prison!"

Rorschach's skeletal face roared, and a torrent of lightning erupted from his body, converging on his right hand that was gripping Katakuri's face, and then...

It erupted with a deafening roar!

"Zizzizi!"

"Boom!"

A blinding burst of light exploded in his palm, followed by crackling electric snakes shooting out in all directions, rapidly expanding from the center of Rorschach's right hand.

The ground within a radius of several hundred meters was bombarded and shattered by a barrage of lightning.

Luo Xia's long silver hair was now stained crimson by the blood seeping from his body, spreading out like coral seaweed and dancing wildly as if it were alive under the stimulation of the electric current.

At this moment, he was a blood-red skeletal monster, eight meters tall!

Not only is it ferocious and terrifying in appearance, like a demon king crawling out of purgatory.

The aura emanating from his body, along with the frantic pumping of his heart, caused the massive amount of blood and qi to be squeezed outwards under unbearable pressure, becoming bloody and violent!

In a daze, even the surging lightning erupting from his body seemed to be stained with the color of blood.

Unleash the limits! Activate!

Katakuri was struck head-on by a violent bolt of lightning and couldn't withstand it. He opened his mouth wide and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
