One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

Luo Xia sometimes wondered if the lightning power he had developed was the kind with extremely high voltage but very low current, which was why it wasn't powerful enough to cause damage.

But no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't figure it out.

The world of One Piece is a fantasy world. In addition to the most basic laws of physics, there are many things in this world that do not follow the laws of physics or natural laws.

For example, the various bizarre natural weather phenomena in this world, such as towering ocean currents and floating sky islands, cannot be explained by Rorschach using the physics knowledge he learned in his previous life.

Devil Fruits are the most unscientific of them all.

No one can explain scientifically how the awakening of Paramecia-type Devil Fruits can so drastically alter the shape of surrounding objects.

No one can scientifically explain how the Float Fruit could float an island that is more than ten kilometers long and wide to an altitude of ten thousand meters.

The lightning he controls is different from Enel's.

Rorschach generates electricity through his own body. The stronger his physical body, the stronger his Devil Fruit ability, the more lightning he accumulates in his body, and the higher the upper limit of lightning intensity.

Theoretically it is.

Rorschach discovered that his physical body could still be strengthened. Even though he had already awakened as a Mythical Zoan and his physical strength was already superhuman, definitely not inferior to the deceased Charlotte Linlin, or the current Kaido and Bullet, Rorschach still had room for improvement in developing his physical body.

Rorschach hasn't fully mastered the method Garp and Zephyr taught him to forge his internal bones into a black blade.

Rorschach had a premonition that when he forged his entire skeleton into a black blade, his physique would reach a terrifying level unprecedented in history.

His physical strength is still improving, albeit slowly, but it is indeed increasing.

However, the upper limit of the electrical current intensity in the body is fixed, and no matter how much Rorschach develops it, it remains unchanged.

It seems that the strongest state of a Devil Fruit ability is when the fruit awakens.

Beyond that, there seems to be no way forward in terms of developing new abilities.

It was as if the upper limit of the electric current intensity that his Kirin Fruit could control was two billion volts.

After failing to achieve his goal through repeated attempts, Rorschach had no choice but to shift his focus on developing his abilities in other directions.

For example, another ability of the Kirin Fruit is the ability to manipulate air currents.

This is also an extremely powerful ability, and if used well, it is no less powerful than the storm of the Dragon.

If developed properly, it could even be used to manipulate atmospheric pressure, creating vacuums or high-pressure environments tens of thousands of times the atmospheric pressure at will, making the extinction of species effortless.

But human energy is limited, and Rorschach is no exception.

Besides training, he also had to deal with G5 affairs and catch pirates, so he always used the Kirin Fruit's ability as a support ability.

Rorschach prefers and favors using lightning and his own physique, which exude power and dominance.

Perhaps influenced by Garp and Akainu, Rorschach prefers straightforward, hand-to-hand combat.

When he discovered that his control over bioelectricity in Freya could affect how others perceived him, Rorschach suddenly realized that his development of the Kirin Fruit's lightning didn't necessarily have to be limited to a crazy pursuit of lightning intensity. Perhaps by shifting from the macroscopic level to the microscopic level, that is, by controlling the human body's bioelectricity, he could further enhance his abilities.

This is the process of depriving and controlling the bioelectricity within a living organism.

No life on this earth can exist without bioelectricity.

At that moment, as he stripped away and absorbed the bioelectricity from the bodies of the forty-seven escaped prisoners, Luo Xia's tall body trembled violently. He immediately felt a surge of life force, as if enlightened, flowing into his body from the thundercloud ribbons connecting to his body.

In an instant, Luo Xia's aura surged, as the physical strength and energy depleted from the previous battle and lightning were instantly replenished by the vigorous life force flowing into his body.

Furthermore, as this massive influx of bioelectricity entered, Luo Xia trembled and shuddered, almost letting out a cry of pleasure.

It was as if along with the bioelectricity he had stripped away, he had also taken away the vigorous life energy from these prisoners.

"Devour! Slaughter! Devour those ants! I am the supreme one!"

A surge of frenzied consciousness suddenly arose deep within him, echoing in Luo Xia's mind and causing his eyes to turn slightly bloodshot.

This sudden surge of brutality and bloodlust gave Rorschach the feeling that he wanted to tear everything in front of him apart and devour it whole.

This feeling came and went quickly, overcome by Luo Xia's strong will. Once he calmed his mind, his azure eyes immediately regained their clarity.

However, that moment of brutality still made Luo Xia frown slightly.

If I'm not mistaken, that consciousness should be the demonic consciousness that he shattered with Whitebeard's help when the Kirin Fruit awakened, right?

This thing can actually regenerate?

Chapter 754 Battle with Barrett

Before Luo Xia could ponder why the demonic consciousness of the Kirin Fruit had resurfaced, only five people remained on the beach of Soft Island, where Huang Mu's panicked shouts could be heard from afar.

"Brother Lanlin! Brother Luoxia! Help me! Get this madman away from me! Ah! Get away from me, you devil's offspring, you monster!"

"Forehead……"

As Luo Xia listened to the distant roars and the intermittent cries of pain from Huang Mu, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

That guy, Aramaki, is a disgrace to the Marine Admirals. He got chased down and beaten up by Barrett so quickly.

This performance is even worse than when he beat me up for a whole day and night last time.

However, no matter how bad he was, he was still a member of the Navy, and Rorschach couldn't really just sit idly by.

He abandoned his original idea of ​​helping Kizaru and quickly eliminating Ryder, and with a flash, rushed straight towards the battleground between Aramaki and Barrett.

On the eastern coast, the battle between Aramaki and Barrett unexpectedly turned into a scene where Barrett chased after Aramaki and beat him mercilessly.

Whenever Aramu manifests his tree giant form, which is tens or even hundreds of meters tall, he is slapped away and scattered by Barrett's giant hand, which is controlled by the power of the Fusion Fruit. This forces Aramu to use his original form or his ordinary tree form, which is tens of meters tall, to entangle with Barrett.

He wasn't actually that badly injured; he didn't cause Barrett any harm.

The ground around the wasteland is covered with various plants that grow rapidly like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

Trees such as pines, cypresses, willows, camphor trees, and ironwood rose from the ground, growing into huge logs several meters or even tens of meters thick, crashing into Barrett like battering rams.

The thorny bamboo forest, entwined with an imposing aura, sprouted from the ground like javelins, piercing upwards towards Barrett, occasionally striking him and sending him flying.

At the same time, countless thick and tough vines and aerial roots, coiling like giant pythons, continuously wrapped around Barrett, constantly hindering and binding his body.

Faced with such a high-frequency, high-intensity, wide-range domain attack, an ordinary person would probably not be able to hold out for long before exhausting their stamina and depleting their domineering aura, easily entangled by Huang Mu and having their life force drained.

However, Barrett, with his deep blue aura surging, was like a savage Tyrannosaurus Rex. Relying on his thick, imposing armor, he charged through the dense attacks, ignoring all the attacks coming from the surrounding area. He used the most savage method to violently smash through all obstacles in his path and kill Huang Mu.

His domineering attacks are violent and fierce. His attack method is simply to throw punches, but the explosive power of each punch can sweep away countless plants in front of him and turn them into dust.

Wilderness is most afraid of this kind of fierce person.

That day, he was pinned down on the island and beaten for a whole day and night, leaving him with severe psychological trauma. But he never expected that he would encounter Barrett, a monster just like Rorschach, with abundant physical strength, a powerful physique, a domineering aura, and a ferocious attack.

Barrett also sustained some injuries; his uniform was torn, revealing his muscular body covered in burn scars.

Some thorns tore his skin, and vines pierced his body, causing him to bleed profusely.

But to Barrett, a battle maniac, these things were like tickling an itch; he didn't care at all and just kept chasing after Aramu.

Once he gets close enough, he unleashes a fierce and domineering punch that Huang Mu cannot withstand. He immediately becomes flustered and cries out in distress, while repeatedly shouting Luo Xia's name, begging Luo Xia to come and save him.

Seeing that Barrett was about to rush towards him again, Aramu reached out and threw out a seed. At the same time, a strong green light emanated from his body and was injected into the shriveled seed.

"Nature's Wrath! Yargiman's Spear!"

Wild Shepherd roared, his body blazing with green light as he charged into the seed.

The shriveled seeds, nourished by the green light, seemed to have consumed some powerful tonic, instantly bursting open their cracked shells and swelling in the wind.

Amidst the crackling and splintering of bark and wood chips, the shriveled seed, which looked no bigger than a fingertip, rapidly expanded and grew, transforming into a massive mangrove tree, tens of meters in diameter, with a lush canopy, right in front of Huang Mu. It shot upwards from the ground like a sharp sword piercing the sky, sending the Barrett tree that had rushed towards Huang Mu flying hundreds of meters into the air.

The terrifying growth rate and explosive power were so great that even Barrett was knocked so hard that he coughed up blood and his body tumbled into the sky.

"Not bad, that was a powerful move."

Hundreds of meters in the air, Barrett, tumbling through the air, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, grinned, and looked down.

"You'll get a taste of what this move of mine feels like, Barrett."

Just as Barrett was searching for the whereabouts of Huang Mu with his eyes, a voice entered Barrett's ears, making him startled.

Before he could turn around, everything went dark, and then a large hand grabbed his face, and he was thrown up by a great force, slamming him down onto the towering mangrove tree below.

"boom!"

Barrett's body crashed straight down like a meteorite, smashing the massive canopy of the Yargiman mangrove into pieces, sending countless leaves and branches flying wildly.

His massive body burst into the center of Yarqiman's thick torso, plummeting downwards with unstoppable force.

Rorschach's figure flashed in the sky, his body, even more imposing and majestic than Barrett's, plummeted downwards.

"boom!"

The sky above Soft Island trembled, bursting open with a massive cloud burst.

Barrett, who had crashed deep into the mangrove trunk, looked up and saw a massive figure trailing wisps of red shadows. In an instant, it approached and crashed into him like a comet hitting the earth.

Rorschach's right fist pushed through the air, crackling with countless flashes of black and red lightning, and slammed into Barrett's chest.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound of bones cracking came from Barrett's body. The thick, dark blue armor covering his body was visibly twisted and broken. His skin and muscles were crushed by Rorschach's huge, monstrous claws covered with ferocious bone spikes, and dented downwards.

"Oh!"

A deafening explosion rang out, and Barrett opened his mouth wide, spewing out a large cloud of blood mist. His burly body was pressed down by Rorschach's punch, piercing down the trunk of the mangrove tree that Huang Mu had created, until it completely pierced through the entire mangrove tree, and crashed into the ground of Soft Island with a loud bang.

But his downward momentum did not stop.

The earth beneath him roared and trembled, exploding into countless plumes of dust, as if the deep earth veins were raging, or as if an ancient behemoth was struggling to break free from the earth beneath this island.

On the ground, Huang Mu looked down at the earth beneath his feet, which trembled and shook as if a magnitude 10 earthquake had occurred, with undulating ridges and cracks appearing one after another. His face twitched.

"Monsters, perverts, Rorschach, Barrett, you...you are all monsters, inhuman monsters! How can humans compare to monsters?"

"Stop standing there like an idiot! Go help Kizaru and take down Red Earl!"

Deep underground, a thunderous sound suddenly emanated from the cracked ground, causing Huang Mu's blood to surge.

"Yes, I...I'll go right away!"

Aramaki was eager for Rorschach to deal with the monster Barrett. Upon hearing Rorschach's voice, he rushed towards Kizaru's location without hesitation.

On the sea outside the island, following Enel's notification, Lark now knows that on Soft Island, only Douglas Barrett, the heir of the devil, and Barory Clydefield, the Lone Red, remain alive.

Therefore, she immediately ordered a halt to the shelling and directed the warships to retreat a kilometer to monitor the surrounding sea and prevent any further unforeseen events.

"Shall we go to the island to help?" Yamato asked, eager to try, carrying his spiked club.
