One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

Luo Xia continued his actions, grabbing Huang Mu's ankle, lifting him upside down, and slamming him wildly against the ground.

"Boom boom boom boom boom!"

The surrounding trees, ground, and boulders were all smashed to pieces and shattered by Huang Mu's body.

Dizzy and covered in blood, Huang Mu was thrown to the ground by Luo Xia, who then stepped on his back, stomping heavily on the panting Huang Mu until he sank deep into the ground.

"Are you convinced now, Aramu?"

Luo Xia, who had long since regained his human form, stepped on Huang Mu's back and asked a question.

The man lying at his feet seemed to mutter something, which enraged Luo Xia, who changed his right foot from stepping on the man's back to a powerful shot.

"Oh!"

A cloud of dust rippled from the arched Huang Mu's body. Luo Xia used him like a soccer ball, kicking him out of the pit like a cannonball, sending him soaring hundreds of meters into the air.

Luo Xia flashed forward, headfirst, and landed on top of Huang Mu. His right foot, clad in a black military boot, delivered a powerful overhead kick, striking Huang Mu's neck with a cracking sound as Huang Mu's neck bent backward and crashed to the ground like a meteor.

Luo Xia followed closely behind Huang Mu as they fell from the sky. He landed headfirst and quickly wrapped around Huang Mu's falling body, using his domineering aura to bind Huang Mu's weakened body and accelerate their spiral descent from the sky.

In the howling wind, Huang Mu barely opened his swollen eyes, and tears faintly flew out from his swollen, narrowed eyes.

"I...I...I give up!"

He spoke with a lisp, his words mumbled indistinctly.

Luo Xia seemed not to hear him clearly, and the speed at which he was falling, wrapped around his body, continued to increase.

The rapid spinning even created raging flames on the surface of their bodies.

The flames ignited Huang Mu's hair, causing him to shout even louder.

The voice that cried out seemed to be filled with grievance.

"I told you I surrender! I surrendered a long time ago! I give up, I give up! I'll quit being a naval admiral, okay? Please, just let me go!"

"boom!"

The two fell straight to the ground like spinning meteorites, carving a huge crater tens of meters deep into the earth.

With a thud, Luo Xia landed on the edge of the pit, looking at Huang Mu, whose upper body was embedded in the hard rock, with only his two legs sticking out.

"You should have said so earlier! I've been playing for a whole day and night and haven't eaten yet. Ugh, I'm starving."

Luo Xia grumbled and rubbed his rumbling stomach.

Hearing his complaints, Huang Mu, whose legs were the only ones sticking out, twitched slightly, his face, which was buried deep in the rock, filled with frustration.

He endured a beating for a whole day and night without complaining, yet Luo Xia, the one who did the beating, actually started complaining first, which was simply outrageous.

Did he never admit defeat?

However, every time he was about to say he would stop fighting, he was forced to swallow his words by Luo Xia's violent attacks.

Or perhaps the roar of the lightning that Rorschach unleashed masked his rage, and Rorschach pretended not to hear it and continued to beat him mercilessly.

If it weren't for the abundant life force he had stored within his body over the years, Huang Mu suspected he would have been hammered to death by Luo Xia right here.

This little imp who picked up bargains, as described by the ancient saint Grimm, possessed power so great that it terrified him.

Even though he unleashed his most powerful moves several times in an attempt to turn the tide and defeat Luo Xia, it was to no avail. He was repeatedly and decisively defeated by Luo Xia.

His terrifyingly powerful physique, his devastating lightning, and his formidable physical prowess, which included mastery of countless techniques from high-ranking naval officers, made him an unmatched opponent for Aramaki.

Besides these, what terrifies Aramu the most is Rorschach's Conqueror's Haki.

The terrifying aura emanating from Kaido, no less than any Shanks he had ever seen, after forming a binding attack, could make him feel like he was dying and screaming in pain with every punch.

Huang Mu was convinced; he was truly convinced.

He had absolutely no desire to continue fighting Rorschach.

Filled with resentment and fear, Huang Mu's mind was churning with a tangled mess of thoughts when he suddenly felt his foot being grabbed again.

He was terrified.

Again?

Didn't I already say I was convinced?

Is that kid trying to wipe him out completely and kill him on this island?

With a muffled thud, Huang Mu's eyes lit up as he emerged from the sealed rock and crashed heavily to the ground.

He sat up abruptly, his eyes filled with fear as he looked at Luo Xia standing in front of him, his voice becoming stammering.

"What...what do you want to do? I...didn't I already say I've submitted?"

Luo Xia looked down at the panicked Huang Mu and couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing.

This barren herdsman has a truly terrible temperament.

She was only beaten by him for a day, and she became so afraid of him that she turned into this coward.

No wonder she was so terrified by Shanks' ranged Conqueror's Haki in the manga that her legs went weak.

It is truly a disgrace to the status of a top-tier expert.

To be fair, this guy is no slouch; he's definitely one of the world's top experts.

His physical skills, swordsmanship, dual-color Haki, and abilities are all top-notch.

Its extremely vigorous vitality makes it virtually indestructible, perhaps even comparable to the indestructible sun god Nika.

However, this guy has a major weakness: his attack power is too weak.

Although he seemed to have defeated Gion with an overwhelming advantage, his attacks were like tickling Rorschach, causing little to no damage.

It's not that Huang Mu couldn't break through his defenses.

Rather, the attacks from Aramu were unable to inflict the same destructive damage on Rorschach's current physical body as the entanglements and attacks of Kaido and Whitebeard.

While Luo Xia's current physical strength is partly due to this, it also shows that Huang Mu's attack power can only be considered to be at the bottom of the top combat force.

Perhaps it still possesses an overwhelming advantage against those stronger than generals and emperors.

However, against the current Luo Xia and the top powerhouses currently roaming the seas, Huang Mu's strength is unlikely to yield any advantage. He will only become a punching bag in someone else's hands, just like in today's battle.

Rorschach is now another Kaido. Against a powerful figure like Aramaki, whose abilities are all below his and whose only strength can rival his, it's an absolute and complete crushing defeat.

Seeing Huang Mu sweating profusely, Luo Xia forced a kind smile.

"Don't be afraid, Huang Mu. Now that you say you've given up, shouldn't you show your remorse?"

"A gesture? You...what do you want? Pele? I can..."

Before Huang Mu could finish speaking, Luo Xia waved his hand to interrupt him.

"What money? Do you think I'm the kind of person who's greedy? I mean, since you've admitted defeat and are convinced, from today onwards, you're my little brother, and you'll have to call me big brother when you see me."

"Big...Big Brother?" Huang Mu looked at Luo Xia in astonishment, pointing to his own nose, "You want me to call you Big Brother? You're only seventeen, I..."

Luo Xia narrowed his eyes, his tone unfriendly, "You can't even beat a seventeen-year-old, and you still have the nerve? Just tell me, are you going to yell or not? If you don't yell, it means you're not convinced, you're not convinced..."

With a cracking sound, Luo Xia clenched his fists and looked at Huang Mu, whose hair stood on end, with a dangerous gaze. "If you're not convinced, then keep fighting until you submit."

"I...I call out!"

Seeing him rubbing his hands together, eager to try, Huang Mu was so frightened that he trembled and shouted.

Then, under Rorschach's gaze, his lips trembled, and he called out in a barely audible voice, "Big Brother."

Luo Xia frowned. "Speak louder, I can't hear you."

"Big brother!" Huang Mu gritted his teeth, squeezing out a frustrated voice from between his teeth.

"Louder! Haven't you eaten? Your voice is so soft, and you think you can be a general?"

"Big Brother! Brother Luo Xia! Brother Lan Lin!"

Huang Mu closed his eyes, went all out, and shouted a few words at the top of his lungs.

The sound was so loud that it even reached Vermeer.

On the G1 inner bay embankment, Zhan Guo and his companions, who were having a meal, suddenly spat out the wine they had just drunk from their nostrils, choking and coughing repeatedly.

Luo and Yun Que exchanged bewildered glances, their expressions strange.

"Hmm, not bad." Luo Xia nodded in satisfaction, reached out and grabbed Huang Mu's arm, pulling him up from the ground.

He patted Aramaki on the shoulder. "Aramaki, we've become friends through this fight. I acknowledge your strength. From now on, you'll be the third admiral in our navy, codenamed Green Bull. Don't worry, I've already blocked the live broadcast from the world. No one but me knows what you looked like when you got beaten up."

"Really."

Aramaki reached out and snapped his neck, which had been bent behind his back, straightening it with a crack, and glanced in the direction of G1 from afar.

He vaguely heard a series of convulsive coughs and loud laughter coming from the sea breeze.

"Alright, let's go. Let's restart the world broadcast and receive the medal from Fleet Admiral Akainu."

As Luo Xia spoke, he turned and went back to G1.

Huang Mu stood there for a while, then stretched out his hand. His five fingers rapidly extended and grew longer, transforming into serpentine vines that twisted in mid-air. As if locking onto its prey, it shot out with a whoosh and plunged into the seawater beside it.

Hundreds of meters below the surface, several small sea monsters were lurking, waiting to hunt fish, when suddenly their bodies were pierced by vines hanging from above.

The gurgling sounds of whales swallowing echoed on the vines, as clusters of life essence were drawn from the sea king and transported into Huang Mu's body, rapidly repairing his injuries.

The sea monsters all withered and shriveled, turning into dried-up fish that slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.

When Aramu returned to G1 Island, he had already reverted to his original arrogant self.

Not only were his injuries completely healed, but even his torn clothes were filled and colored with wood fibers, making them whole again.

Since everyone knew that he was the third admiral of the Navy Headquarters, regardless of what Sengoku and the others really thought of him, at least on the surface everyone was still polite to him.

However, the G5 members and Gion and the others couldn't help but look at Aramaki with a hint of sympathy.

There was nothing they could do; in their eyes, Huang Mu was truly a pitiful fellow.

For others, becoming a naval admiral is an extremely prestigious and world-renowned event.

When he got to him, he was not only beaten half to death by Luo Xia, but was also forced to call Luo Xia, a teenager, "big brother".

It's a bit tragic no matter how you look at it.

After a period of debugging, the world live broadcast, which had been disconnected for a day and a night, was reconnected.
