One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

"That bastard! Damn it, isn't there a single reliable guy in Marine Headquarters?" With a thud, Sengoku punched the recently renovated wall of his office.

Suddenly, several translucent cracks appeared on the hard wall.

"By the way, Admiral Kizaru also said that he was ordered by the Five Elders to stop Rorschach from killing Doflamingo."

Brannew's words finally gave Sengoku a rare moment of relief.

"Oh? Is that so? Then I'm relieved. Anyway, that's what I was planning to do by sending Zeffa over there. Borsalino is fast, he might arrive before Zeffa does."

He felt relieved, sat back down on the sofa, picked up the hot tea on the table, and looked at Kap.

"Garp, you can rest assured now, right? With Zeff and Borsalino around, let alone Grindelwald, even..."

"Pulling pulling".

"Puff puff..."

Sengoku's Den Den Mushi suddenly rang.

He paused for a moment, then reached into his pocket and pulled out an old man Den Den Mushi wearing round-framed glasses.

This Den Den Mushi is his private Den Den Mushi; apart from a few people, no one usually contacts him directly.

Sengoku pressed the answer button.

"Moses, Moses, I am the Warring States."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Luo, the Den Den Mushi that had just transformed into, said urgently, "Grandpa, Luo Xia has been arrested!"

"puff!"

Sengoku sprayed the tea he had just drunk onto Garp's face.

However, Garp had no intention of arguing about this trivial matter at the moment, and together with Sengoku, he put his old face close to the Den Den Mushi.

Sengoku screamed in a hoarse, trembling voice, "What did you say?! Luo Xia has been arrested? What happened? Who dared to arrest him...?"

"It was Grimm who captured him. Rorschach killed Doflamingo and completely destroyed him and his Donquixote Grand Fleet. Old man, what should we do now?"

The anxious voice of the Den Den Mushi kept coming through, but Sengoku was no longer able to hear it.

He dropped the water glass he was holding, and collapsed onto the sofa as if all his strength had left him, muttering, "It's over, it's all over, it's really all over."

New World, Port of Dressrosa.

Green stared sternly at Rorschach, who was giving orders to the members of the G5 branch.

"After you've finished dealing with things here with King Riku and the others, return to G5. During my absence, all work in G5 will be under Law's full responsibility. Enel, Palmer, Bepo, Ban, you must unconditionally obey Law's orders, do you understand?"

In front of Rorschach, a group of G5 marines stood with resentment on their faces.

Upon hearing Rorschach's instructions, Bepo and Palmer were the most excited, their eyes almost reddening and tears welling up.

"Lord Lieutenant General!"

They are relatively simple-minded, and their joys, sorrows, and anger are usually expressed very directly.

"Don't worry, leave G5 to me. Also, don't worry about your matter; I've already contacted headquarters, and the old man already knows."

Luo nodded in agreement.

Enel squinted at Gringu and said calmly, "If you die, I will leave."

"Enel, can't you wish me well for once? Want to go back to Skypiea and be a god again? I advise you to give up that idea. The Navy isn't willing to let go of a future Admiral like Goblin." Rorschach chuckled and punched Enel hard in the chest, making him stagger.

"Alright! Stop dawdling! Let's get on the boat!"

"I can't wait any longer," Greene urged impatiently.

On the distant sea, a huge black three-masted sailing ship was speeding towards them.

Standing at the bow of the ship were a dozen or so CP0 members from the World Government, as well as a thin man wearing punk earmuffs and a silver faceless mask.

The dozen or so burly CP0 personnel all stood respectfully behind the thin man.

Upon seeing the newcomer, both Zephyr and Kizaru, who were standing at the port, felt a chill run down their spines.

“Mammaye…”

"So, did Don Quixote's son ultimately die?"

The thin man standing at the bow of the ship had a rather aged voice, sounding similar to Green Gu.

His gaze met Green's for a moment in mid-air before turning back to Rorschach, who was wearing seastone handcuffs.

Luo Xia was startled when he was stared at by his gaze.

The masked man exuded a powerful aura, not much weaker than Gringu's, and at the same time, it gave Gringu a vague sense of familiarity, as if he had felt it somewhere before.

After a moment's thought, Luo Xia found the source of this sense of familiarity.

That was one of the dozen or so powerful auras he sensed when he used his Observation Haki to investigate the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, and it overlapped with the aura of the person in front of him.

At that time, this person was probably also in Pangu City with Green Gu.

Looking at the flattering attitude of the CP0 staff towards him, his identity immediately became obvious.

"The other members of the Knights of God? No wonder their auras are so powerful."

Rorschach glanced at Zephyr and Kizaru.

He thought he just heard Zephat mutter something like "Mamaye".

"Leave half the men behind to track down the remnants of the Don Quixote family, and the rest to bring the prisoners onto the ship. Also, find that good-for-nothing Sim."

Greene gave the order in a deep voice.

Soon, seven or eight people from the dozen or so CP0 teams on the ship immediately broke off and rushed into Dressrosa using Moonwalk.

A short while later, Sim, covered in blood and unconscious, was brought back by two CP0 agents. The rest of the CP0 agents did not return, apparently having gone to carry out Gringu's mission.

The remaining CP0 members disembarked from the World Government's black ship and approached Rorschach with indifferent expressions.

A CP0 member tried to grab Rorschach's shoulder, but was stopped by Zephyr's stern gaze.

Seeing this, Grimg was furious and shouted, "Zeffa! What else do you want?"

“My disciple is not an unforgivable criminal. I will escort him myself and no one else needs to interfere.”

With that, Zephyr ignored the dark-faced Gringu and led Rorschach onto the black ship.

Kizaru, with only one eye showing, slowly followed behind them and went up as well.

"Damn Zephyr, it was definitely the right decision to put Weevil in power. That old codger, just like that old bastard Garp, completely disregards us. Looks like we need to find a reason to make him..."

Grimg watched Zefa's retreating figure with a gloomy expression, his thoughts unreadable.

The events that occurred in Dressrosa could not be kept secret forever. In less than two or three days, news of the death of the new Emperor Yaksha and the complete collapse of his newly established and vast power spread throughout the New World. Moreover, it swept across the world like a storm, reaching Paradise and the Four Seas.

Morgans' News of the World is selling like hotcakes again.

Chapter 556 Kaido

The Land of Harmony, the Capital of Flowers.

Pale pink cherry blossoms drifted slowly down from the ancient cherry trees. A woman dressed in a kimono and wooden clogs, with light makeup and a fan in hand, walked gracefully down the long street, attracting passersby to stop and watch.

The samurai, with nothing at his waist, scanned the shops on both sides of the street with a fierce look and a gloomy expression, seemingly wanting to seize a suitable weapon.

Inside the jade-paved and carved pavilions and courtyards, the master of this country, the shogun of Wano Country, Kurozumi Orochi, was personally carrying a large wine barrel and pouring wine for the giant bull-horned man sitting opposite him with a fawning expression.

"Kaido, try this sake. I specially sent someone to Hakumai to find the most famous brewer in the area. He selected the finest grains to brew it. It has a mellow and lingering flavor with a strong aftertaste. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

Kaido was unusually dressed in a kimono typical of Wano Country, with a thick shimenawa rope still serving as his belt. He had torn open his robe and pulled it down to his waist, revealing his grotesque, steel-like muscles covered in scars.

Seeing the small cup of wine that Orochi poured for him, Kaido gave him a disdainful look, grabbed the large wine barrel next to Orochi, and poured it into his mouth.

The amber-colored liquor poured into his mouth like a waterfall.

In just four or five seconds, the barrel, which was over a meter tall and could hold more than a hundred kilograms of liquor, was completely empty and was casually tossed aside by Kaido.

The giant snake looked at the empty wine barrel rolling on the ground, a look of heartache flashing across its face before quickly turning into a fawning smile.

"How is it, Kaido? This wine..."

"Hiccup~".

Kaido let out a burp, his face flushed, and smacked his lips in satisfaction.

"Oh, not bad. Anything else? Bring it all!"

Orochi's smile faltered. He wanted to say that it was all gone, but when he saw Kaido's mountain-like, terrifying physique, he swallowed hard and, with a pained expression, ordered the maid standing beside him to have the strongman bring several barrels of wine.

Kaido picked up a spatula and continued pouring water down the drain.

He chugs down his liquor while sleepily gazing down at the giant snake.

"Orochi, how's the task I asked you to do going?"

Orochi forced a smile. "Don't worry, I've strengthened the management of all samurai within Wano Country. I've dispatched a large number of people to places like Hakumai and Kuri to confiscate weapons. I've also issued relevant regulations that anyone seen carrying a knife will be arrested and imprisoned."

Kaido finished another bucket and nodded in satisfaction. He raised his hands and did a simple stretch, the pulsating muscles causing the air in the courtyard to whistle and nearly blow the cherry blossom tree in the corner to its bare trunk.

The hat on the snake's head was blown off.

The few pieces of cloth worn by the maids were torn and ripped by the strong wind, making Orochi's eyes turn red. He thought to himself that Kaido really knew how to play games.

Unfortunately, in the Flower Capital's red-light district, apart from Black Maria, there are very few dancers suitable for Kaido's size.

Otherwise, Orochi would at least send Kaido a hundred or so dancers, hoping to exhaust this guy who has so much energy that he can't vent it all and who often runs amok in Wano Country when he's drunk, so that he'll be too tired to bother him anymore.

To be honest, Orochi truly had a love-hate relationship with Kaido, both respecting and fearing him.

What I love is Kaido's immense and invincible power in Wano Country. As long as this guardian deity is there, those restless samurai and remnants of the Kozuki family will never be able to overthrow his rule, Kurozumi Orochi.

What they hate is Kaido's excessive power, which makes his rule seem like a complete vassal of the Beasts Pirates, lacking the status a general should have.

Kurozumi Orochi is the shogun of Wano Country, and his status should theoretically be above that of the God of War.

However, when it comes to Wano Country, Kaido is the undisputed leader.

It seems we still need to have someone try to seduce Kaido's precious daughter and sow discord within the Beasts Pirates.

The Beasts Pirates are full of muscle-bound guys who idolize Kaido; he simply can't bribe them with money or women.

After much thought, the only loophole in the seemingly impregnable Beasts Pirates is Kaido's rebellious daughter.
