One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

Nearly half a month has passed since he last successfully broke through the 800 million volt mark, and he has only managed to increase the current intensity by less than 10 million volts again.

For the past two weeks, Luo Xia has been undergoing high-intensity, long-duration, overload training every day.

Domineering aura, physical skills, physique, Devil Fruit ability development—one thing after another.

However, the results were minimal.

The closer you get to your limit, the harder it feels to break through.

Rorschach felt that his current power was strong enough to easily smash mountains and sink islands.

If he weren't in this world, he truly wouldn't believe that human beings could cultivate to such an exaggerated level.

To test his physical strength and determine the level he had reached, Rorschach came up with a good method.

That is to fly to a certain height, then jump down from the air, without taking any powerful defensive measures, and just crash to the ground, receiving the impact with pure flesh.

He remembered that in the manga, Kaido once jumped directly from a height of 10,000 meters, and after hitting the ground, he just touched his head and was completely unharmed.

Therefore, Rorschach also thought about giving it a try.

After briefly assessing the difference in physique between himself and Kaido, Rorschach began a suicidal jump from a height of 5,000 meters.

Of course, he specifically chose a deserted island to avoid harming innocent people.

Then, after more than a dozen bottomless, human-shaped craters appeared on the ground, Luo Xia stopped his suicidal behavior, clutching his aching chest.

He measured his physical limits.

Without taking any powerful defensive measures, relying solely on his physical strength, he could jump directly from a height of 8,000 meters above the ground, and he would be unharmed whether he landed face-first or with any part of his body.

Once the altitude exceeds 8,000 meters, his bones will still not be damaged, but his internal organs will begin to be unable to withstand the pressure and will suffer damage.

The results of this test do not prove that Rorschach's physical strength has reached 80% of Kaido's.

Because his current physical limit is 8,000 meters, while Kaido's 10,000 meters is just a game to him.

Kaido's race is the Oni race, known for their robust physiques. Coupled with his exceptional talent and monstrous constitution, along with the powerful Mythical Zoan abilities, his physical strength has reached an unimaginable level.

However, if Luo Xia were to activate his Blue Scale form, he could easily handle a freefall from a height of 10,000 meters.

But that's meaningless.

Realizing that there was still a huge gap between himself and Kaido, Rorschach immediately trained even harder.

After resting on the dam for a while, Luo Xia stood up, ready to do the extreme training he had just done again.

Just then, he suddenly frowned and turned to look at the sea in front of the inner bay.

Rorschach's powerful Observation Haki gave him exceptionally keen intuition, allowing him to sense danger before it even arrived.

Danger is approaching!

Without hesitation, Rorschach unleashed his powerful Observation Haki forward, simultaneously releasing tiny electric currents that significantly amplified the range of his Observation Haki.

His brows furrowed again very quickly.

Within a radius of dozens of miles, there was no trace of a single pirate ship.

Luo Xia only saw some merchant ships traveling in and out of the surrounding waters, and warships patrolling.

Suddenly, his expression shifted, and he realized what he had overlooked.

"Danger doesn't necessarily come from the surface; it could also come from the deep sea. A submarine is approaching!"

Rorschach's Observation Haki followed the electric current deep into the sea, and he soon spotted a spindle-shaped black submarine speeding toward G5.

Perhaps to evade patrol boats, the submarine dived to a depth of more than 5,000 meters.

If Rorschach's Observation Haki hadn't been so powerful, he probably wouldn't have even noticed that a submarine was sailing from the deep sea to launch a sneak attack.

As the submarine rapidly approached, Rorschach sensed an extremely powerful life force.

The newcomer was quite powerful. After thinking for a moment, Luo Xia roughly understood who it was.

In recent days, intelligence on Don Quixote's Grand Fleet has been meticulously unearthed by naval intelligence personnel throughout the new century and placed on his desk.

The strongest member under Doflamingo's command is still Dean, the former vice-captain of the Wang Zhi Pirates. He is a Paramecia-type Strength-Strength Fruit user, possessing the world's greatest strength and a powerful Armament Haki.

His power is not derived purely from his physical body, but is granted by the power of his Devil Fruit.

The Power-Power Fruit grants Dean superhuman strength, enough to allow him to move mountains and split islands with his bare hands.

Vegapunk said that the creation of Devil Fruits was driven by the collective desires of humanity.

If that's the case, then Rorschach estimates that somewhere in this ocean, there might be a Pirate King Devil Fruit that, if eaten, would instantly make one the Pirate King.

After all, almost everyone in the world wants to become the Pirate King. This is undoubtedly the strongest desire in the hearts of people in this great pirate era, without exception.

Putting aside the sudden thought of complaining, Luo Xia looked at Mia, who was washing clothes, and said, "Mia, take the children back to the settlement. Pirates are coming."

Upon hearing Rorschach say that pirates were coming, Mia's little face showed no panic. She simply nodded obediently, quickly gathered the clothes she was washing, put them in her basket, slung it over her shoulder, turned around and called out loudly to her younger brother Adams. She and a group of children crossed the square and ran towards the settlement behind the fortress.

"boom!"

A thick bolt of lightning pierced the air and exploded on G5 Island, startling all the marines on the island.

Then, Rorschach's booming voice resounded throughout the entire fortress base.

"All personnel are on high alert and ready for battle. Contact the maritime patrol fleet; I need to know the latest situation in the G5 sea area."

After saying that, he opened his right palm, and the massive amount of lightning power accumulated in his body surged out and converged in his hand.

Soon, the raging lightning was compressed in Rorschach's hand, forming a lightning ball that emitted terrifying energy fluctuations, constantly scattering wisps of electric light that crackled and popped as they pierced the air.

Sensing the submarine locked onto by his Observation Haki, when it approached within two or three thousand meters, Rorschach decisively threw out the lightning ball he had been preparing for a long time, sending it crashing into the sea.

The silver sphere, crackling with electric light, hurtled downwards through the pitch-black depths of the sea, hurtling towards the approaching black submarine.

Inside the submarine, Dean, who was eager to make a big splash, suddenly changed his expression as he sensed a terrifying energy fluctuation rapidly approaching.

"Damn it! We were discovered? How is that possible?"

Dean's face twitched, his mouth clenched into rows of dense fangs, and his eight- or nine-meter-tall, burly body suddenly stood up. He reached into the bucket next to him, scooped up a soapy bubble, and held it in his hand. A layer of jet-black armor-colored armor spread across the surface of his massive body. Without the slightest hesitation, he rammed his head into the submarine's right-hand bulkhead, completely ignoring the group of subordinates who had followed him inside the submarine.

With a piercing roar, Dean, whose entire body was shrouded in a dark and imposing aura, smashed through the more than one-foot-thick steel bulkhead of the submarine.

He burst out of the submarine and plunged into the deep sea.

The sudden and shocking turn of events left the pirates in the submarine pale-faced, completely bewildered as to what had happened.

I don't know why my boss suddenly went crazy and sabotaged the submarine to leave.

From the breached bulkhead, which looked as if some giant sea monster had bitten a large hole, a massive amount of seawater roared in and quickly swallowed up the terrified pirates.

Some skilled sea pirates were trying to escape through the breached bulkhead, but they didn't see a silver lightning bolt shot out and suddenly pierced through the submarine's bulkhead, falling into the submarine.

The next moment, the entire black submarine exploded with a loud bang, and a rapidly expanding ball of lightning burst forth from the shattered submarine, sweeping towards Dean who had jumped into the deep sea.

Dean raised his hand and rubbed the bubbles he was holding onto his body. Instantly, a tough layer of soap bubble film covered his head, isolating him from the seawater, and containing a lot of air.

Encased in bubble wrap, Dean had a brief moment to catch his breath and quickly slapped the seawater beneath him.

As his hand, larger than a millstone, slapped down heavily, the seawater beneath Dean exploded as if blown apart by explosives.

The seawater turned into white bubbles and sprayed downwards in a rush.

The immense recoil propelled Dean into the air, sending him hurtling towards the surface at an unimaginable speed through the deep sea.

Soaring over a thousand meters, shaking off the impact of the lightning below, Dean slapped the seawater beneath him once more.

The seawater exploded, and the enormous force propelled him like a torpedo towards the surface of the sea above.

As the dark seawater above grew brighter and brighter, Dean was gradually able to see the ripples on the water.

But at that moment, another ball of lightning, constantly flashing with electricity, broke through the surface of the sea and shot rapidly toward the direction he was rising.

"Go away!"

Dean roared, his thick, frighteningly strong right arm bulging with taut tendons, and punched the incoming lightning ball.

"Boom!"

The seawater, hundreds of meters below, exploded with a deafening roar, creating a gas blast that killed countless fish and shrimp.

A powerful shockwave erupted from Dean's fist, shattering the incoming lightning ball and sending it flying back in the direction it came from, carried by a large amount of seawater.

As Dean's punch landed, a massive wave of water exploded across the sea within a hundred meters above his head.

The seawater was blasted into a misty fog by the terrifying force of the punch, swirling around like a haze.

A massive, dark blue-green figure shot up from the blasted sea surface, soaring dozens of meters into the sky.

Before Dean could get a clear look at the situation on the sea outside, a strong gust of wind rushed towards him from the front, accompanied by a crackling electrical noise that was quite irritating.

The moment Dean opened his eyes, he saw a lightning-fast fist rapidly enlarging in front of him.

"Oh!"

Chapter 530 You Know Nothing About Power

The fist, crackling with electric light, grew infinitely large, instantly obscuring Dean's entire vision before slamming into his face.

"Oh!"

With a muffled thud, Dean's massive, dark blue head was jolted back by the sudden punch, a burst of air exploding behind his head, as if even the moisture in his scalp had been blasted out of his body by the punch.

Dean, who had just burst out of the sea, was hit in the head and was dizzy and swaying. His huge body, which was eight or nine meters tall, flipped backward and crashed back into the sea below with a whoosh.

"asshole……!"

Just before falling into the sea, Dean barely regained his senses, shook his heavy head, and stomped heavily on the sea with his large, webbed feet covered in Armament Haki armor.

With a deafening roar, the sea beneath his feet exploded, and the powerful recoil propelled Dean's body into the air once more, hurtling towards Rorschach who was in pursuit.

"Kid! You're that damned Vice Admiral Bluescale? The one who killed Wang Zhi, killed Golden Lion, and defeated Katakuri?"

The moment Dean saw Rorschach's excessively youthful face, Katakuri's cold expression involuntarily flashed into his mind, and a nameless fire suddenly rose in his heart.

He looked down at the bruises and swelling on his chest, and the nameless anger burned even more fiercely.

Damn Katakuri!

"What a joke! You? A little brat who hasn't even grown a beard yet!"

Dean opened his gaping maw full of fangs and let out a beastly roar. He clenched his massive, hammer-like fist and slammed it down at Rorschach, who was charging at him.
