One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

After taking out his Den Den Mushi and contacting Tesoro to ask him to send someone to G5 for the second gold transaction, Rorschach smiled and looked at Hibari.

"Hibari! How about we go back to headquarters for a few days?"

"Oh? Really?"

Upon hearing this, the lark, who had been somewhat sullen, immediately beamed with delight.

"Of course, we'll go back after I bring Enel and Law back to oversee G5!"

Chapter 610 Huh? Another new Shichibukai?

Naval Headquarters Inner Bay Port.

Several pirate ships flying pirate flags brazenly approached.

The marines standing at the port watched as several massive figures disembarked from the ship one after another. Feeling the overwhelming aura emanating from them, they all turned pale, as if they were being stared at by a huge beast. They subconsciously turned their heads away, not daring to look at the newcomers.

A naval captain shouted at the top of his lungs, "Shichibukai Gecko Moria has arrived!"

"The Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Tyrant Bartholomew Kuma, has arrived!"

As Brannew watched the bear and Moria's imposing physiques pass by, he couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

"So this is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. He's as strong as a monster."

At this moment, a huge, dark red ship appeared on the distant sea, carried by two giant, colorful snakes. Standing on the deck at the bow were all women.

The women varied in height and weight.

Some were extremely beautiful and had alluring figures.

Some are muscular and stronger than men.

The sight dazzled the marines who were training in Marineford Square.

Seeing the large ship approaching, Brannew hurriedly turned around and shouted into the square, "All instructors, listen up! No one is allowed to look this way! Violators will have their training increased tenfold! Instructors included!"

This inexplicable order left the new recruits, who were in training, completely bewildered.

Even the instructors were somewhat taken aback.

Fortunately, many of the instructors were veteran naval officers. When they saw the red warship about to dock, their expressions changed, and they immediately shouted and urged the new recruits around them to do as Brannew asked.

"If you don't want to be petrified, close your eyes, turn around, and don't look towards the port!"

"That's the ship of the most beautiful woman in the world, the Shichibukai, Empress Boa Hancock! She's been invited to the Shichibukai meeting!"

The instructors would have been better off not mentioning the Empress.

The mere mention of the Empress, the most beautiful woman in the world, makes those green recruits feel an itch in their hearts, like a cat scratching at them.

Immediately, many new recruits, and even officers and instructors, couldn't help but cast curious glances toward Brannew.

I want to see what kind of woman can be called the most beautiful woman in the world.

As the large ship carried by the sea serpent docked, crisp footsteps echoed on the deck of the multi-story vessel.

The sound was like high heels clicking on a wooden deck.

Even before the man arrived, just hearing his voice filled the marines with an overwhelming sense of anticipation.

Just how beautiful was the Empress?

The marines and officers who had this idea in mind, upon Hancock's appearance, all had their hearts pounding like drums, their eyes widening suddenly, their bodies stiffening, and they instantly turned into stone statues.

"Damn it! I told you not to look! That woman's charm isn't just charm, it's also influenced by her Devil Fruit power! Anyone attracted by her beauty will be petrified by her power! Everyone around, carefully place the petrified people, don't break them! If the statue breaks, the person will die!"

The veteran naval officers were so anxious that they shouted repeatedly and hurriedly told the new recruits around them to lay the petrified marines down on the ground to prevent them from accidentally falling and breaking.

Soon, another veteran came up with a way to remove the petrification.

"Have someone bring over the Seastone handcuffs! Touch the petrified person!"

Petrification is an effect of the Sweet-Sweet Fruit's power; both Seastone and seawater can remove the petrified state.

Brannew didn't dare to look, and only dared to lower his head.

As Hancock's two slender, snow-white feet, clad in red high heels, walked past him, Brannew's military uniform was already soaked with sweat.

He forced his pounding heart to stop, glanced quickly at Hancock's graceful figure as she walked away, and then turned back to look at the inner bay where the sound of splashing water could be heard.

A large, obese blue fishman suddenly leaped out of the water, landing steadily on the harbor embankment in front of him in a pair of wooden clogs.

Brannew quickly stepped forward and said, "Welcome to Marineford, Jinbe the Knight of the Sea."

"Don't mind me. I'm just here to see which new member the Navy plans to select to join the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

Jinbe waved his hand and walked towards the headquarters meeting hall directly in front of the square.

He had been here more than once and was very familiar with the surroundings.

After watching Jinbe enter the Fortress of Justice, Brannew continued to wait at the inner bay.

After a long time, another pirate ship appeared on the distant sea.

However, the ships that came this time were pitifully small.

From a distance, it looks like just a small black dot.

When they got closer, the sailors in the inner bay realized that it was just a small boat less than three meters long and shaped like a coffin.

On that ship sat a handsome man wearing a leather hat, a black trench coat, and carrying a long black sword on his back. He was sitting with his legs crossed, elegantly sipping a glass of red wine, looking very relaxed.

"Commander Brannew! The last of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Hawkeye Mihawk, has arrived!"

"The naval captain reported loudly."

"Alright, everyone, thank you for your hard work. I'll take care of the hospitality from now on... Wait, that's...!"

Brannew's voice suddenly stopped, and he looked up sharply, his gaze passing over the eagle eye that was slowly approaching the harbor, and looking at the vast sea in front of him.

On that stretch of sea, a large number of bubbles were rising from below the surface, making a gurgling sound.

Brannew's expression changed, his brows furrowed, and he shouted, "Attention everyone! There's an unidentified coated vessel rising from the surface of the inner bay!"

His loud shout reminded the surrounding marines to immediately raise their flintlock muskets and aim them at the inner bay where a large number of bubbles were rising.

One after another, massive coastal defense cannons were mobilized, falling heavily and aimed directly at that spot.

Mihawk turned his head to glance at the gradually rising water behind him, swirled the wine glass in his hand, and curled his lips slightly.

"Just as I expected, you did come back to Paradise because of this. How about a fight, Rorschach?"

"Rorschach?"

The hundreds of marines who were aiming their guns at the harbor were all stunned when they heard Hawkeye utter the name.

Brannew stared wide-eyed as a familiar dragon-headed warship burst forth like a blue monster amidst a crashing sound of water.

The soap bubble covering the warship burst with a pop, scattering a rainbow-like glow in the air.

On the bow deck stood a man and a woman dressed casually.

The man was tall with long, flowing silver hair, deep blue eyes as deep as the sea, and a slightly gentle smile on his lips, yet he inexplicably exuded an imposing and authoritative aura.

The woman's figure is much smaller than the man's, but she is not short.

She has a sweet and charming appearance, making her look delicate and cute.

She was enjoying a cream puff pastry with a smile on her face, showing no signs of nervousness at the Marine Headquarters.

Upon seeing the two men on the dragon-headed warship, Brannew and all the marines in the surrounding harbor were thrilled.

"It's...it's Lieutenant General Rorschach!"

"Lieutenant General Rorschach is back!"

At that moment, cheers of extreme excitement rose and fell across the inner bay.

One by one, the sailors, naval officers, and even the veteran instructors looked on with surprise and admiration at the approaching warship.

"It's the Wind and Thunder Kirin! Lieutenant General Luo Xia has returned to headquarters!"

Those marines who were regretting not seeing the Pirate Empress's stunning beauty just a moment ago, upon hearing the cheers of the marines in the distance, immediately showed even more excited and fanatical expressions. Forgetting that they were training, they rushed to the port in a swarm.

"Where is Lieutenant General Rorschach? Move aside! Let me see Lieutenant General Rorschach!"

"Lieutenant General Luo Xia! I'm from Beihai, just like you! You're my idol! Could I have your autograph?"

The new recruits were packed so tightly that the port was completely jammed.

Koby and Bellmare were squeezed in the middle of the crowd, struggling to breathe.

"Vice Admiral Rorschach is too popular, isn't he? Even when the Pirate Empress came, no one went crazy." Coby said with difficulty, shrinking back.

"Isn't that obvious? That's Vice Admiral Bluescale, who can be called the fourth admiral of our navy!" Bellmare said, his eyes filled with awe.

“Brother Luo Xia, you see, I told you so, didn’t I? Everyone here is here to welcome you, not a single person called my name.”

Lark looked at Rorschach with envy, then opened his palm.

"You lost, give me 10,000 Berries now."

"Nonsense, I heard someone call your name. You should be giving me 10,000 Berries."

Luo Xia reached out and grabbed her arm, pulling her off the Kirin.

"Liar, I didn't hear anything," Yun Que pouted.

"Is your Observation Haki stronger, or mine? It's normal that you didn't hear me." Rorschach said confidently, and seeing that Hibari still wanted to refute, he quickly changed the subject, "Hurry up and eat the dessert you took from Shirahoshi. How can you eat dessert so slowly in the solemn Marine Headquarters? It's really inappropriate, you know?"

"Hmph, all you do is bully me."

Lark pouted angrily, watching Luo Xia's retreating figure, and took a vicious bite of the cream puff in her hand.

So sweet~

"Lieutenant General Rorschach!"

Brannew was also somewhat excited to see Rorschach return.

He snapped to attention and gave Luo Xia a military salute.

Rorschach smiled, waved to the surrounding marines, which caused another uproar, before pointing to Hawkeye not far away and looking at Brannew.

"Brandeu, what's this guy doing at headquarters?"
