One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

"You don't know Cyrus?"

Luo Xia was taken aback at first, but then his mind raced and he figured out the reason.

Sugar's Hobby-Hobby Fruit ability allows her to turn people into toys or dolls, and then make those close to her forget the corresponding memories of that person.

However, this kind of forgetting should have certain limitations.

It could be due to limitations in scope, or something else.

In any case, people outside the Kingdom of Dressrosa have not forgotten the story of Cyrus, the Arena King.

At least in their naval records about Dressrosa, there is information about Cyrus.

But it doesn't matter.

Anyway, Rorschach came here to find Doflamingo.

He originally intended to use absolute power to directly kill Doflamingo and completely dismantle this newly established Fourth Emperor's crew.

But now that we're going to save lives, let's keep a low profile for now.

Thinking this, Rorschach stood up and looked at Leo.

“Okay, I agree. But Leo, are you sure your current physical condition is really suitable for going to participate in the rescue? You don’t have to go, I will take care of Doflamingo and everything else.”

"I'm fine! Sir, I was the one who requested the rescue. How can I let you go into danger alone now?"

Upon hearing Rorschach's agreement, Leo's face showed gratitude, and he said very solemnly, "I am a user of the Stitch-Stitch Fruit, and I have already used my ability to stitch up my injuries. Next, I will personally take you to Dressrosa to rescue Princess Mansherry, Princess Rebecca, and King Riku."

As he spoke, he was about to call the Lilliputian warriors to go together, but Rorschach stopped him.

“We don’t need many people, Leo, trust me. You just need to come with me and bring back the rescued people.”

Leo hesitated for a moment, but ultimately chose to listen to Rorschach.

He had already witnessed Rorschach's power firsthand.

The Lieutenant General Lan Lin in front of me is definitely much stronger than the soldier captain.

In the end, however, Leo summoned five little warriors, including Kabu and Beech, and together with Rorschach, they left the Kingdom of Tontatta and flew towards the capital of Dressrosa on a hummingbird that was incredibly fast.

Speaking of which, the ability of that little human warrior named Kabu was actually the same as the Insect-Insect Fruit Rhinoceros Beetle form that Rorschach had seen on that big guy in the Insect Kingdom of the Calm Belt not long ago.

That big guy was as strong as a giant, with a shovel-shaped horn on his head. Rorschach almost mistook him for the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle from One-Punch Man.

Kabu, however, was a tiny human, no bigger than the palm of a hand.

The same ability can have vastly different effects on different users.

Rorschach was very fast, even faster than the hummingbird mounts Leo and the others were riding.

In less than ten minutes, he led Leo and the others across the dozens of kilometers of sea between Greenbite and Dressrosa, and arrived in Dressrosa.

Luo Xia drew in layers of air currents that flowed around him and Leo, creating a mirror-like refraction effect. Like a chameleon's camouflage, they completely concealed their figures and swaggered directly into the capital city ahead.

Along the way, all Rorschach saw were pirates laughing and joking, with swords and spears hanging from their waists.

Just as Leo had predicted, the situation here was chaotic.

Along the long street, pirates could be seen everywhere oppressing the people.

Not far from them, five or six pirates were surrounding a beautiful woman, lewdly flirting with her.

Beside the beautiful woman, a five- or six-year-old child was crying.

An angry teddy bear charged forward, howling and swinging its furry fists at several pirates. This piqued the pirates' curiosity, and one of them drew his sword and stabbed at the teddy bear, wanting to see if someone was hiding inside.

Otherwise, why would a lifeless plush toy rush out to protect the people in the capital?

This isn't Totto Land, and Big Mom is long dead.

Just as the pirate's long sword was about to stab the teddy bear, Leo was furious and was about to fly over to stop it, but was stopped by Rorschach.

"Since we're going to save people, let's try not to cause a commotion. Let me do it."

With a grab, Rorschach caused the air in front of him to ripple and swirl. An invisible current of energy wrapped around the pirate wielding his sword, along with dozens of other pirates loitering in the street. Tiny arcs of electricity shot out from Rorschach's fingertips, instantly piercing the pirates' brains and turning them into charred remains.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of pirates on this street were all killed silently and tragically.

Then the flowing air enveloped them, and the airflow refracted light on their bodies, causing the dead pirates to vanish into thin air before the eyes of the people of Dressrosa.

Furthermore, a second before these people looked over, Rorschach released a faint burst of Conqueror's Haki, stunning all the residents on the entire street and leaving them speechless for a few seconds.

"Leo, use your abilities to stitch the ground together."

As Rorschach spoke, he manipulated the airflow to form sharp wind blades, which silently sliced ​​through the ground beneath the pirates' feet, dragging all their corpses into it.

Leo nodded, rode the hummingbird and darted away. Long, thin threads appeared at the end of the steel needle he held in his hand, and his small body, like a phantom, clung to the cracked ground, mending it back and forth.

His movements were swift; in just two or three seconds, the street sections that Rorschach had cut open were stitched back together by his Sewing-Sewing Fruit ability, leaving only tiny, invisible stitching marks.

Only then did the residents of the capital, who had been stunned by a faint trace of Conqueror's Haki from Rorschach, shake their heads and come to their senses.

"Mommy! Mr. Bear!"

Seeing that his mother and the teddy bear protecting her were alright, the five or six-year-old boy who was crying immediately rushed into his mother's arms.

"Thank you, Mr. Bear." The beautiful woman thanked the teddy bear in front of her.

The teddy bear's face showed no expression, but Rorschach could clearly sense the relaxation in its heart, as well as the churning of painful thoughts within.

Rorschach knew that the teddy bear was actually the beautiful woman's husband and the child's father.

He was touched by sugar and turned into a doll, and then his existence was forgotten by his wife and children.

He couldn't bring himself to tell his wife and children that he had always been there for them.

This intense inner struggle was not unique to him; in the vast capital of Dressrosa, at least tens of thousands of people were experiencing this kind of mental torment.

This seemingly romantic city is actually filled with pain and sorrow.

And the one who started all of this was Doflamingo.

"Let's go, Leo, let's hurry."

Luo Xia quickened his pace and flew straight towards the location of the royal capital highlands.

“Sir Navy! I know where the Don Quixote family’s prison is. I’ll take you there. Rebecca and Mansherry are probably being held there.”

Leo caught up with Rorschach and said.

"No need, I already know where they are. However, things seem to be a bit troublesome."

Rorschach didn't need Leo to guide him at all. With his powerful Observation Haki, he could perceive every detail on the entire Dressrosa island.

As he traveled, countless invisible arcs of electricity emanated from Rorschach's body, quietly spreading across the entire island's skies. This transformed his Observation Haki perception from simply sensing auras into a 360-degree, all-around surveillance.

Everything that is happening on the entire island of Dressrosa right now is under his control.

Including the bullfighting arena where the competitive tournament is currently underway.

And Rebecca, whom Leo mentioned, is right there now.

The one-legged toy soldier is waiting for an opportunity to rescue Rebecca, who is surrounded by pirates.

Meanwhile, deep within the mountains of the Royal Capital Highlands, in a secret prison, a little girl named Sugar, wearing red glasses, was licking a grape from her fingertip while grinning at Violet and King Riku, who were being held down on the ground by several pirates.

"Sugar! Where did Doflamingo take Rebecca? Tell me!"

Violet was emaciated, no longer possessing her former proud and perfect demeanor. Her clothes were tattered and stained with dust and dark red blood.

She lay on the ground, struggling desperately to break free from the pirates' grip on her.

No one knew Sugar's abilities better than Violet.

She had endured humiliation and served as a family official in the Don Quixote family for more than a decade, and had long since become intimately familiar with the abilities of everyone in the family.

Sugar's Hobby-Hobby Fruit ability is the foundation of Doflamingo's rule over Dressrosa.

Over the years, there have been rebels in this kingdom, but they have all disappeared without a trace.

Among these rebels were even many nobles and members of royal families from neighboring countries.

Because of their previous good relationship with the Riku royal family, they took the initiative to help, but were obstructed by the Don Quixote family and were all turned into toys by the sugar.

Because the people who were turned into toys were forgotten by their relatives and friends, and because they themselves did not die but were turned into toys, and their life papers were not burned, it did not cause a great sensation.

As a result, Doflamingo's rule in Dressrosa became increasingly stable, and the number of rebels decreased.

The only remaining direct descendants of the Riku royal family are King Riku himself, Violet, and Rebecca.

If even they disappear and die, then the entire Riku royal family will be extinct.

"You mean Rebecca? She's currently being shown to those ravenous pirates by the young master as a prize in the competition."

Sugar walked up to Violet with a grin and reached out to touch her face.

"To prevent you from causing trouble, I have no choice but to dispose of you as toys for now. Goodbye, Violet."

Chapter 542 Welcome to the Arena of Gods

Sugar's hand slowly reached towards Violet's face, and despair appeared in Violet's eyes.

She bit her lip, her hair disheveled, and curled up trying to escape, but to no avail.

She is too weak right now.

"Damn it! Let go of Violet! If you want to kill me, come at me! I am the king of this country. That bastard Doflamingo has been toying with this country for over a decade. What does he want from me?!"

King Riku, who was being held down by the pirates, gritted his teeth and roared.

King Riku's heart bled as he looked at his daughter Violet.

Over the years, if it weren't for Violet enduring humiliation and hardship, joining the Donquixote Family, and even submitting to Doflamingo, he and his granddaughter Rebecca would probably have been abandoned and killed by Doflamingo long ago.

Because of Violet, he and Rebecca have endured hardship over the years, fighting against gladiators in the arena and suffering injuries repeatedly, but they have managed to survive and have not completely lost hope of living.

But now, he is helplessly watching his daughter being brutally murdered by the Donquixote Family pirates.

This pain and humiliation drove King Riku to madness with hatred.

"Stop yelling, you'll be dealt with the same way. But don't worry, the young master said that your Riku royal family are top-class slaves, and you'll be fed and cared for by the Celestial Dragons. Hehe, I imagine that will be very happy, right? After all, you can become servants of a noble god."

Sugar smiled and pressed down with her little hand.

Suddenly, crisp footsteps came from the passageway behind me.
