One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

As time passed, the colossal Qilin beast, treading on the waves, led the naval fleet forward, getting closer and closer to Songruan Island.

When the giant Qilin came to a point 10,000 meters, or ten kilometers, off the coast of Songruan Island, it stopped.

At this moment, a spherical energy ball containing a massive amount of lightning, air, and Armament Haki had appeared in his open maw.

In his awakened Mythical Zoan form, Rorschach is able to unleash the full potential of the Kirin Fruit.

The energy ball, which had been accumulating for more than an hour, slowly flew out of the gaping maw of the Qilin beast, just like the tailed beast ball released by the Nine-Tailed Fox. It spun around in the air above the sea. Even before it exploded, the terrifying energy fluctuations emanating from it were enough to make the naval soldiers behind Luo Xia feel their scalps tingle with fear and horror.

Even Kizaru and Aramaki couldn't help but tense up, shocked and awed by the terrifying attack that Rorschach had accumulated.

Rorschach's incredibly powerful Observation Haki had already locked onto the location of Soft Island beyond his line of sight. He could even clearly see who was on the island and their location from a distance of ten thousand meters.

Now, he wants to give the pirates gathered on Soft Island a surprise in advance.

The colossal Qilin beast raised its majestic and ferocious dragon head high and suddenly spat out a spherical ball of energy that had been stored in its mouth for a long time.

"Go! Two Billion Volt Railgun! Kirin Tailed Beast Ball!"

The massive energy surge created towering waves and a huge storm, significantly impacting the forward momentum of the naval warships.

The giant Qilin beast that spat out the energy ball was also propelled backward by the enormous recoil, retreating over a thousand meters and nearly colliding with the Qilin behind it.

As the spherical energy ball was expelled by the Qilin behemoth, a dazzling beam of light suddenly flashed across the vast, endless sea in front of hundreds of warships.

The dazzling beam of light cleaved the sea, and wherever it passed, the seawater seemed to have been scooped out, creating a semi-circular trench that stretched as far as the eye could see. Billions of tons of seawater were instantly evaporated by the terrifying energy.

A beam of light, crackling with countless arcs of electricity, sliced ​​through the sea before the stunned eyes of tens of thousands of marines, hurtling straight toward the Soft Island beyond their sight!

.

.

On Soft Island, a fierce battle is underway between the Devil Pirates and the Beasts Pirates!

Barrett did not bring his entire pirate fleet with him this time. Instead, he only brought one steamship with almost all of the Devil Pirates' high-end combat force, which consisted of the hundreds of Infinite Hell prisoners who had come out of Impel Down with him.

Although they were far outnumbered by the pirates led by Katakuri and Wald, they possessed an overwhelming advantage in combat strength.

These prisoners from the Infinite Hell are all at least Major General level or above. Almost every one of them has mastered two types of Haki and some powerful physical or sword skills.

When Red Earl, carrying the blood-stained demon sword Dragon Spine, stepped onto the battlefield, the tide of battle turned completely in favor of the Devil Pirates.

Ryder, clad in a blood-red cloak, floated up lightly, like a giant blood-red bat with outstretched wings, or a sharp dagger. He flashed past Devon, who was fighting Smoothie, and Pizarro, who was fighting Perospero, and headed towards Katakuri, the strongest member of the battle group, who was fighting a dozen Infinite Hell prisoners all by himself.

As if he had anticipated Ryder's arrival, Katakuri's right arm swelled wildly, and countless identical giant arms emerged from his right shoulder like a shower of flowers, blasting towards the dozen or so prisoners surrounding him and sending these hyena-like creatures flying in disarray.

At the same time, he stomped his right foot heavily in the direction of Ryder, and the ground rolled like a white raging wave, but it did not roll towards the charging Ryder. Instead, it turned into layers of glutinous rice balls that enveloped his own Perospero and Smoothie.

His movements were incredibly fast; in fact, thanks to his powerful Observation Haki, which allows him to briefly foresee the future, he was able to anticipate Ryder's attack and prepare in advance.

But the Red Earl is not an easy character to deal with.

Katakuri's Observation Haki allows him to foresee the future, and so can Ryder.

Just as the white, glutinous waves that roared toward Perospero and Smoothie were about to completely envelop and protect them, Ryder drew his sword!

"Waltz Steps! Dawn's Glow!"

The eerie dragon-spine longsword slashed out from his hand. Although there was only one sword, it simultaneously unleashed two enormous, bone-dragon-like sword shadows towards Perospero and Smoothie on either side of him.

The gleaming white blade flashed like the dawn light tearing through the darkness, moving with incredible speed.

Perospero, his entire body enveloped in viscous syrup, only felt a white shadow flash before his eyes, followed by a tearing pain in his chest and abdomen. The steel-like syrup armor covering his body shattered with a bang.

His abdomen was sliced ​​open by a sharp slash, and he was almost cut in half by Ryder's blade. A large cloud of blood mist exploded, and he was thrown off the ground. Pizarro, who rushed up to pick up the scraps, manipulated the earth and slammed his palm into the depths of the ground. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive.

Meanwhile, Smoothie, who was fighting Devon on the right, shrunk her body to half size out of instinct as a great swordsman and held her longsword horizontally in front of her.

"Clang!"

With a loud bang, Smoothie also let out a muffled groan as a line of blood burst open on her chest. Her upper body clothes were ripped open, revealing her fair and plump body. Her high-level Armament Haki was completely unable to withstand Ryder's slash, leaving a terrifying wound that was deep enough to expose bone.

"Muruhohoho, Smoothie, surrender and join our Devil Pirates. Maybe then we'll spare your life."

Dai Peng licked her bright red lips, uttering words of persuasion, but her feet never stopped moving. Behind her, her furry tails spun like wheels, and as she leaped high into the air, her body rapidly expanded and enlarged.

As Smoothie struggled to her feet, her body covered in blood, the sky above her suddenly went black.

She looked up in astonishment and saw a hand more than ten meters wide descending from the sky and heavily covering her.

"Where did this hand come from?"

Smoothie gritted her teeth and unleashed a powerful strike, aiming for the giant hand above her head, but it was too late.

A giant hand slammed down, and the next moment, she coughed up blood, following in Perospero's footsteps, being slapped deep into the ground.

"Muruhohoho, you seem... quite surprised."

The giant San Juan Wolf, standing 180 meters tall, grinned and let out a chilling laugh.

"De Peng! Don't just pretend to look like someone else and do whatever you want."

On the other side of Soft Island, another wolf, San Juan, whose body was as big as a small mountain, was wildly waving his hands and swatting at Wald and the others, like swatting flies, making the others, including Bin Jack, flee in a sorry state, unable to put up an effective counterattack.

In an instant, Ryder unleashed two slashes, providing support for Pizarro and Devon's battle. Without stopping, he flashed into a red shadow and shot towards Katakuri.

Seeing his defeated brother and sister, whose fates were unknown, Katakuri's eyes turned bloodshot. Crimson lightning crackled and flashed across his tall body. The ground beneath his feet shattered as he charged forward like a cannonball towards the incoming red shadow, his right leg whipping out like a long whip.

"Chucky!"

His right leg extended like a whip, igniting from the friction with the air and sprouting jet-black spikes wrapped in terrifying Conqueror's Haki lightning. Like a city wall, it swung down and smashed into the head of the charging Ryder.

Seeing this, Ryder flicked his wrist, and the joints of his demon sword clashed together, emitting a sharp shriek like a dragon's roar. It also unleashed bursts of deep red Conqueror's Haki lightning, stronger and more ferocious than Katakuri's attack. With a single slash, it collided with Katakuri's right leg that he had swung out.

"boom!"

The giant leg, tens of meters long, collided with the bone knife, which was more than a meter long, producing a deafening roar.

The ferocious Conqueror's Haki clashed in mid-air, with beams of deep red Conqueror's Haki lightning striking and annihilating each other, shattering the surrounding earth.

"Lingling has so many sons, and finally one of them has emerged as a promising one."

Ryder pressed his wrist forward, and terrifying Conqueror's Haki lightning continued to erupt from the Dragon Spine Blade, crushing Katakuri's massive right leg inch by inch, and then slashed at the approaching Katakuri once more.

"Dance of the Eternal Night! Round Wave Slash!"

A blood-red blade of light, hundreds of meters long, cleaved through the surging white glutinous waves, sending Katakuri, who was hidden in the center of the waves, flying away with a single strike.

While suspended in mid-air, Katakuri's arms, which he held up in front of him, were bursting with blinding blood light, and blood was spilling from his mouth.

Ryder was about to press his advantage when he suddenly stopped. Instead of slashing at Katakuri, he swung his long sword diagonally towards the sky above.

Suddenly, a blurry black afterimage appeared in the sky, rapidly approaching from afar and arriving above Ryder's head.

The next instant, a huge fire dragon with raging flames appeared out of thin air and charged toward Ryder, tearing at him.

"Guardian! Fire Dragon Emperor!"

The enormous fire dragon roared and pounced down, colliding with the crimson slash unleashed by Ryder, and was annihilated in mid-air.

As the flames burst forth, a tall, dark figure rushed out from behind and slashed at Ryder's face.

Ryder held his sword horizontally in front of him to block the attacker's longsword, but was struck by the immense force of the downward slash and was sent flying backward, skimming the ground.

"It's King, the Wildfire of the Beasts Pirates!"

Pizarro looked solemnly at the sea outside Soft Island.

The giant warship San Juan Wolf, transformed by Devon, used its height advantage to look down at the distant sea and saw dozens of Beast Pirates ships of various sizes rushing towards them. Judging from their size, there were at least tens of thousands of people.

"Oh no! The Beasts Pirates' reinforcements have arrived! Where's Kaido? Has that monster Kaido come?"

Recalling Kaido's terror, Devon couldn't help but shudder. He turned his head and looked around at the dozens of pirate ships rushing towards him, trying to find that terrifying figure.

At the same time, she quickly retreated from the enormous body of San Juan Wolf that she had conjured using the Nine-Tailed Fox's power, not wanting to be approached by Kaido because of her overly conspicuous body.

She searched for a long time but couldn't find Kaido. However, she saw a dazzling white light shooting from the horizon at the edge of her vision. It flashed past the approaching Beasts Pirates fleet and then magnified infinitely in her sight.

"Is that... the sun?"

Chapter 745: Blue Lin Ginseng

On the sea outside Soft Island, dozens of pirate ships of various sizes, led by the flagship of the Beast Pirates, the Azure Dragon, aggressively surrounded Soft Island.

Quinn stood at the bow of the Azure Dragon, frantically dialing the Den Den Mushi he was holding.

"Brother Kaido! Don't joke with me like that! Answer the phone! Without your help, how can we possibly defeat that madman Barrett with just our numbers? If you don't come, we're taking our men and making a retreat!"

Quinn's fat face, so thick you couldn't see his neck, was covered in sweat as he stared wide-eyed at the chaotic Soft Island ahead.

Even before their ship had fully approached the coast of Soft Island, they could see several enormous, non-human figures on the island.

Even the Beast Pirates' Numbers seemed insignificant compared to those guys.

"If you can't get through to Kaido's Den Den Mushi, you can try attacking Kurozumi Orochi, you idiot! Calm down, we're the strongest pirate crew in the New World! Have the guys surround Soft Island! No need to land, just surround the island and fire! Use the Navy's Buster Call to give the island a full-scale artillery barrage!"

"Who are you calling a pig, you bastard! Do you want to die? Chavez!"

Quinn turned around like a wild boar with its hair standing on end, glaring at a giant behind him who was eight meters tall, with muscles growing horizontally all over his body, but whose eyes gleamed with intelligence.

This guy's name is Chavez. He was a prisoner who escaped from Impel Down. After being impressed by Kaido's power, he joined the Beasts Pirates. After defeating Page One, Ulti, and the other Flying Five and True Fighters, he naturally became the new Drought.

Chavez is a Bakania, possessing superhuman strength comparable to that of giants. His physique is similar to that of the deceased Jack, but unlike Jack, this big guy is very quick-witted.

"Just do it! When Barrett comes looking for you, I'll see how you die, you stupid pig!" Chavez said without any politeness, ignoring the furious Quinn.

Queen wanted to argue back, but remembering how terrifying Barrett was, he held back. He quickly took out his Den Den Mushi and started dialing Orochi's Den Den Mushi, wanting Orochi to go find Kaido and send him to Matsuru Island to steal the gold and the Tremor-Tremor Fruit.

Just then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a flash of white light on the sea.

By the time Quinn looked up in that direction, the light was already right in front of him, obscuring his entire vision.

"Danger!"

Even before the light magnified infinitely before his eyes, Chavez sensed a deadly danger approaching, which frantically stimulated his mind, making his scalp tingle and his hair stand on end.

"Elastic shield!"

He shouted, reacting even faster than Quinn. A spherical air shield suddenly expanded outward from his burly body, completely enveloping the Azure Dragon beneath his feet.

Just as the Azure Dragon was enveloped by the spherical air shield, a dazzling beam of light, filling the entire field of vision of the two, flashed past among the dozens of pirate ships of the Beast Pirates.

Their ship, like a baseball being violently struck, was suddenly squeezed by the huge beam of light and launched off the surface of the sea.

Quinn and Chavez were like two fat rats in a washing machine, colliding back and forth on the spinning and tossing Azure Dragon.
