One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

In the sky, the thick clouds shattered in a few breaths.

The sky was like a boiling sea, as if it were being frantically stirred up by several invisible giant hands.

The sea of ​​clouds on the right surged and flowed, being drawn into funnel clouds thousands or even tens of thousands of meters long, before being sliced ​​in two by a divine force.

The sea of ​​clouds on the right rolls in a fan shape, like raging waves, piling up to form a long, mountain-like cloud layer.

The earth-shattering explosion, like continuous rolling thunder, echoed through the air.

Those on the golden ship could only see the sea of ​​clouds above constantly collapsing and churning, with thick lightning occasionally illuminating the sky for hundreds of miles, its bright light flashing back and forth like stars.

Each flash was accompanied by a deafening explosion.

This astonishing celestial phenomenon was as if gods were battling deep within the clouds.

At this moment, not only in the Sabaody Archipelago and the Golden Ship, but also in faraway places like Marineford, Impel Down, Enies Lobby, and the top of the Red Line, one could hear this far-reaching sound and see the commotion in the sky growing ever larger.

Suddenly, the entire sky above the golden ship seemed to burst into flames, and the sea of ​​clouds stretching for hundreds of miles was dyed a fiery red by the dazzling red light.

A meteorite trailing raging flames thundered through the chaotic clouds, flying in from the heavens and plummeting straight down!

This magnificent scene of the sky opening up, meteorites falling from the heavens, and the sea of ​​clouds churning instantly captivated and overwhelmed countless witnesses.

Far away in the square of Marineford, countless marines watched in horror at the dramatic changes in the sky, letting out a chorus of exclamations.

Sengoku, who was in a meeting, walked out of his office upon hearing the noise. The moment he looked up, he saw a dazzling bolt of lightning pierce through the falling meteorite.

The next moment, the falling meteorite exploded with a thunderous roar, blooming like an unprecedentedly huge firework over the amusement park's sea area.

Countless meteors and sparks scattered in all directions, accompanied by countless tiny flashes of lightning, illuminating the sky above the golden ship with dazzling brilliance.

Sengoku's throat bobbed, and the magnificent fireworks were reflected in the lenses of his glasses perched on his nose.

"The war hasn't even started yet, how come it's like the end of the world? Can that kid Luo Xia really handle that Yi Xiao guy?"

The thought of that smile that could summon meteorites from outer space made Sengoku's heart ache again.

If this guy were to join the navy, the war would definitely turn into a one-sided victory for the navy.

On the golden ship, the pirates and gamblers who witnessed the spectacular sight in the sky completely lost the will to resist. They laid down their weapons and allowed the G5 marines to escort them to the open ground to lie down.

The Kid Pirates, the Drake Pirates, the Corrupted Monk Pirates, the Broadcast Pirates—one by one, the pirate crews gave up resistance.

On the entire Grantezoro, the last three battlefields were gradually coming to an end.

The Flame Tank Pirates from the West Blue are suffering repeated defeats against the G5 elites led by Smoker.

His so-called fierce firepower became meaningless and crumbled at the first touch in front of a group of ravenous naval officers.

A plume of white smoke billowed in, coalescing into the image of Smoker, who was smoking two cigars.

He crossed his arms and looked at Capone Bege, whose face was extremely pale.

"It's time to surrender, Capone Bege. Your men are almost all dead."

Capone Bege, also with a burning cigar in his mouth, looked at his men lying on the ground around him, his heart sinking deeper and deeper.

"The victor is king, the loser is villain. Losing is just death. Surrender? Hmph, that's not an option in my dictionary!"

"Castle Form!"

His body rapidly expanded and grew, transforming into a massive, ancient-style castle in front of Smoker, Tashigi, and the others.

With a series of clicking sounds, the windows and doors of the castle opened wide, and the sounds of cannon fire and smoke drifted out.

From inside the wide-open gate, the mournful sound of horses neighing could be heard.

"My firepower is limitless!"

Capone Bege's face appeared above the castle, and he roared deafeningly.

"He's putting up a stubborn resistance, utterly obstinate. Take him down!"

Smoker gave the order and charged forward, transforming into a white column of smoke. He knocked over several oncoming warhorses and rushed into the castle that Capone Bege had transformed into, beginning a rampage of destruction.

Outside the castle, dozens of naval officers stood like iron chains across the river, blasting and eliminating the mafia members who kept rushing out of the castle.

In the blink of an eye, the ground was littered with the corpses of warhorses and men.

With a resolute expression, Tashigi wielded the Greatsword and the Drywood Longsword. With a single vertical slash, she cut a charging knight and his horse in two.

Blood gushed onto her body like a waterfall, but she showed no sign of discomfort.

Rorschach gave the two great swords he obtained from Shiki to Penn and Tashigi.

Peng En took the Great Grade Sword Sakura Jū, and Law also gave him the Ancient Zoan Triceratops Fruit.

Tashigi chose the Great Sword, Drywood.

Tashigi has good potential. She is currently considered the second tier of G5 and is being groomed by Rorschach as a future backbone of G5.

After Tashigi cleaved three warhorses side by side in two with another sword strike, she shouted, "Attack with Seastone Jitte! He's too big and too clumsy; he absolutely can't dodge it!"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding marines drew their standard-issue Seastone weapons from their waists and rushed toward the castle where Capone Bege had transformed.

Just then, thick smoke suddenly billowed out from inside the massive castle.

The smoke, like tentacles and chains, burst out from the windows and gates of the castle, coiled around the outer walls, and then suddenly contracted inward.

"Click-clack-click-clack!"

A series of popping and crackling sounds followed, and Capone Becky's face showed pain.

Cracks appeared on the outer walls of the castle.

The white smoke was tinged with a layer of dark Armament Haki, making it seem as if a strange, twisted tentacles were growing out of the castle that Bege had transformed into.

As numerous black tentacles contracted inward, a large amount of blood flowed from Becky's mouth.

His body began to shrink rapidly.

Then a swirling cloud of black smoke flew out from his shrunken body, condensing into Smoker's form on the outside.

A dozen seconds later, Capone Bege, his body twisted beyond recognition and covered in blood, lay on the ground, handcuffed with seastone handcuffs.

Chapter 632 Law VS Straw Hat Pirates

"Lord Tesoro, over seven thousand of our ship's regular customers have been captured by the Navy. These wealthy gamblers bring us Gran Tesoro at least a hundred billion Berries in wealth every year. Moreover, many of them are burdened with loans we've made. Furthermore, the forces behind these customers are too numerous, some even involving the Four Emperors, member states, and the World Government. Are we... really going to do nothing?"

Behind Tesoro, Baccarat asked with a worried tone.

Standing to the side, Mr. Tanaka glared angrily at the G5 navy in the distance and roared, "Lord Tesoro! These navy men are nothing but lackeys of the World Government, mere vice admirals, yet they dared to disregard your objections and still attack our guests. It's unforgivable! Pica has been killed; if we do nothing..."

"Shut up."

Tesoro uttered two words expressionlessly.

Bakara and Tanaka immediately shut their mouths and stood respectfully to the side without saying another word.

Not far behind them, Monet, Baby 5, and Buffalo, their faces filled with sorrow, anger, and despair, were all bound by gold and unable to move.

Tesoro quietly watched Issho and Rorschach fighting in the sky, paying no attention to anything around him.

"Lieutenant General Lan Lin... So what if you're powerful? The power of money is the most powerful force in the world, and I'll show you."

On the empty land in front of him, Luffy and his crew, who had chosen Law as their opponent from among Enel, Law, and Hibari, were already in a precarious situation of being wiped out.

Faced with two Logia-type and one Paramecia-type, Sanji and the others subconsciously thought that Law, as a Paramecia-type user, would be easier to deal with than Enel and Hibari.

At least he cannot transform into a natural element, and can be attacked.

If Enel and Hibari are chosen, then among the group, only Luffy, who has just awakened Armament Haki, will be able to attack them; the others will become a burden.

They learned this lesson the hard way in their many encounters with Smoker.

But now, within just a few minutes of fighting Law, Sanji, Robin, and the others realized just how wrong their assumptions were.

What they didn't know was that within the G5 branch, Luo's current strength was actually ranked ahead of Hibari's.

More than two years of honing his skills in the new world allowed him to develop his surgical abilities to an extremely powerful degree.

Combined with his rich combat experience and dual-color Haki, he is second only to Rorschach and Enel in strength within the G5 branch.

Standing next to Luffy are Sanji, Franky, Bartolomeo, Robin, and Chopper.

The injured Nami and Usopp, along with the mermaid Camie, stayed outside the battle zone and did not participate in the fight.

Looking at Luffy and his crew, who were eager to fight, Law's face showed little seriousness.

The ring of energy in his hand spun and suddenly unfolded.

"ROOM!"

The swirling air currents instantly spread out from his hand, expanding to a diameter of 100 meters in the blink of an eye, engulfing himself and Luffy and the others.

"what is this?"

Sanji, who was flying in the sky wearing a combat suit, was taken aback and instinctively became more alert.

Luffy didn't dare to be careless and immediately activated Gear Second.

A large amount of scalding steam billowed from his body, his skin quickly turned bright red, and his heart began to pump faster under the pressure of his rubber body, accelerating the flow of blood throughout his body to achieve a short-term burst of super-high power, enhancing his strength and speed.

He had just raised his palm towards Luo when he saw Luo drop the ghost-wailing object he was holding and wave his hands together.

"ROOM! Chaotic Space!"

There was no light, no shockwaves.

Without a sound, Luffy and his six companions, who were enveloped in the surgical space, suddenly froze, their eyes showing a moment of confusion.

When they came to their senses, they saw Luo reach out and catch the Ghost Crying Blade that had been thrown away earlier. He then gripped the hilt and slashed at them from a distance.

Slaughterhouse!

"Everyone be careful of his strange ability! Rumble Ball! Arm Strength Enhancement!"

Chopper shouted a reminder, while reaching into his pocket to pull out his special Rumble Ball to enhance himself.

However, when he saw the cigarettes and lighter he pulled out of his pocket, Chopper was completely stunned.

Then he saw his own human hand and the scientific combat suit he was wearing.

And, there's himself floating in the sky right now, and on the ground beneath his feet, another Chopper who's crossing his arms in front of him and making a strange gesture.

Chopper heard himself on the ground shouting loudly with a serious expression, "Luffy-senpai! Sanji-senpai! Franky-senpai! Robin-senpai! Chopper-senpai! You guys just charge forward without worry, leave the defense to me! I, Bartolomeo, swear to protect you with my life!"
