One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

He had already locked onto the Barrett, which was hundreds of meters below the seabed.

Rorschach, his body covered by an incredibly thick air shield and imposing armor, ignored the turbid seawater and silt, and like a fish, plunged into the depths of the cracked seabed. Electric current surged on the hundred-meter-long iron whip in his hand, melting it once again and reforming it into a crimson-red spear, which he thrust straight down at Barrett, who was hidden among the rocks and soil.

"Electromagnetic catapult! Spiral electromagnetic cannon!"

"Sizzle... Pfft!"

Blue and white lightning flashed on the crimson spear, and magnetic force erupted, spinning the spear and turning it into a spiral spike that pierced the seabed and plunged straight into the depths of the rock layer, accurately striking Barrett, who was hiding there.

Rorschach!

Barrett roared Rorschach's name, his voice filled with resentment, anger, and disappointment at his defeat to Rorschach.

The self that aimed to be the strongest, the self that constantly honed and advanced on the path to becoming the strongest, did not fall on the road to defeating Shanks or Kaido, but fell at the feet of Rorschach, at the feet of a boy who was younger than him and possessed the same kind of Armament Haki.

Barrett found it unacceptable to be surpassed by those who came after him, feeling both ashamed and angry.

"The strongest! It can only be mine!"

Seeing the fiery red spear piercing right in front of him, Barrett reached out with both hands and actually managed to grab the tip of the rapidly spinning hundred-meter-long iron spear, stopping its rotation.

Barrett was about to use his Fusion Fruit power to control the iron spear in his hand and launch a counterattack against Rorschach when he saw the iron spear, which he was holding tightly in his hands, suddenly lunge forward.

"Pfft!"

Blood splattered, and Barrett groaned as the skin on his palms chafed and cracked. Unable to restrain the sudden burst of force, he was pierced through the chest by the iron spear he was holding, and pinned heavily to the rocky strata deep in the seabed.

At the end of the iron spear, Rorschach withdrew his fist, reached out and grabbed the end of the spear, about to pull the pierced Barrett out from the depths of the seabed.

Just then, a large amount of black gas, resembling ink, surged out from the tip of the iron spear. Then, a black face with bulging eyes and veins all over its face emerged from the large iron spear, which was nearly a meter in diameter. Just as it was about to gasp for breath, seawater rushed in and it was immediately choked and coughed.

It was Tikki.

It turns out that when Rorschach tore the iron-hulled ship in two, Teach was hiding in a parallel dimension within the remains of his right hand.

When the iron-hulled ship was melted down and turned into an iron whip, Teach was almost crushed to death by the compressed dark space.

Fortunately, there was enough steel on the iron-hulled ship. Even after Rorschach melted and compressed it, the resulting iron whips and spears were nearly a meter in diameter, which saved Teach from being crushed to death by the compressed air.

Although he wasn't crushed to death, he was on the verge of collapse due to the prolonged breathlessness.

Just as he was about to take the risk and peek out from the dark space to take a breath of air, Tiki was pleasantly surprised to find that the dark space she was in had expanded.

Beyond the tip of the spear lay an endless expanse of darkness.

It seems that he is in a parallel universe where he has finally come into contact with the seabed, or left the deep sea and come to the surface.

In this way, he could enter this vast, dark space and escape this hellish place.

Overwhelmed with the immense joy of about to escape, Tiki couldn't contain herself and crawled out of the dark space.

In theory, if he takes another breath, he can hold his breath for ten minutes or even longer and escape completely from that madman Barrett.

However, as soon as Teach emerged from the dark space, she was greeted not by fresh air, but by choking seawater.

Not only that, he was horrified to discover that his lower body was stuck inside Barrett's chest.

Teach's Armament Haki was not weak either. Putting aside his initial panic, he quickly released Armament Haki to form an armor, separating the surging seawater, and prepared to retreat into the dark space.

But it was too late. Two huge, blood-soaked hands gripped his neck tightly, squeezing so hard that his neck bones cracked under the strain.

Tiki, who hadn't had any air for a long time, opened her mouth wide and her eyes bulged out, bloodshot, when Barret pinched her like that.

He struggled to break free from Barrett's large hands, but Barrett's hands seemed to be rooted to his neck, tightening continuously.

Hehehe, hehehe.

A maniacal laugh, like the whisper of a devil, rang in Tikki's ears.

Barrett stared down at Teach, whose body was half-buried in his chest, struggling and flailing her arms, with a devilish, sinister blue face and bloodshot eyes.

The scene was so terrifying, it was like something out of a horror movie, and even Rorschach felt a chill run down his spine.

"I understand, hahaha, I know how to master more Devil Fruit abilities now."

Barrett suddenly burst into maniacal laughter, his grip tightening, twisting Titch's neck until it was completely contorted and snapped.

"If I eat you, and we merge into one person, wouldn't I be able to have three Devil Fruit abilities? No, not three. If I eat all the Devil Fruit users in the world and merge with them, I can master all of them."

"That's right! That's exactly how! This is the true use of the Fusion Fruit!"

"You're a madman, you're a madman..."

Tikki's lips moved, and the light in her eyes gradually faded.

He couldn't believe that he would die here, at the hands of a madman, after obtaining the Tremor-Tremor Fruit he had always dreamed of, and before he could reach the top of the world and fulfill his lifelong dream.

With a hiss, Barrett grabbed Titch's head, which was still wide awake in death, with both hands, lifted it from her neck, and then shoved it, along with her headless corpse, into his own chest.

Even the iron spear that pierced his body was not pulled out by him. Instead, under the effect of the Fusion Fruit's power, it rapidly decomposed into countless purple crystals, which then merged into his ruptured chest cavity.

"You won't die. You've just become one with me. You've simply become a part of my body."

Barrett stroked the flesh and blood on his chest that looked like countless red worms writhing, muttering to himself with fanaticism in his eyes.

"Has Barrett completely gone mad?"

Seeing this incredibly bloody and cruel scene, Rorschach didn't hesitate much and continued to swoop down towards Barrett.

He wanted to take advantage of Barrett's descent into madness and kill him completely.

"Hahaha, I've found it! I've finally found the way to become the strongest!"

Barrett grinned savagely, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Rorschach as he charged forward.

"Merge! As long as I merge with all of you, as long as I integrate all the strongest people in the world into my body, I can become the strongest!"

"Come, come! Rorschach! Become one with me!"

Chapter 761 Aberrant Blue Demon

"I don't know why, but I suddenly had a bad feeling, as if something terrible had suddenly happened."

On the sea, Huang Mu suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He looked around in surprise and doubt, but saw nothing.

He looked at Kizaru, only to find that Kizaru had done the same, even taking off the sunglasses that were perched on his nose.

However, unlike him, Kizaru's gaze was always fixed on the direction of the deep sea where Rorschach had dived into.

On the ice surface dozens of kilometers away from Soft Island, Shanks, Zeff, and the others who were facing off all turned their heads at the same time to look at the location of Soft Island.

"What's wrong, Shanks?" Luffy noticed everyone's gaze and asked, puzzled.

"This aura is... Barrett?" Shanks' pupils contracted, as if in disbelief.

Yi Xiao nodded: "Indeed a descendant of a devil. No, perhaps we should remove the last two words. This aura is that of a true devil."

"What's going on? This enormous life force is like seeing Zou, the giant elephant that has lived for over a thousand years. It's unbelievable."

Zefa floated up and looked towards the location of Soft Island in the distance, but the distance was too far and he could not see anything.

"Old man Zefa! Stop fighting! Let's go over there and see what's going on," Beckman couldn't help but shout.

Zefa landed again, standing on the edge of the floating island, and gently shook his head.

"I'm sorry, but I won't let you pass. Although I don't know what happened over there, my disciple will handle everything."

"Tch! Stubborn old devil! Laugh! Flip his island, let's charge!" Lakiru shouted.

Deep beneath the seabed outside Soft Island, beneath a broken seabed.

"That's enough, Barrett!"

"Twenty Billion Volts of Power! Shatter Star!"

Rorschach, maintaining his strongest form from Devil Fruit awakening, clenched his Kirin Claw, crackling with Conqueror's Haki, and slammed it into the blue giant fist that Barrett was laughing maniacally as it came from the opposite direction.

"Boom! Crack!"

A ferocious force, like the impact of a tsunami, slammed into Barrett's fist. Thick bolts of lightning shot out from Rorschach's fist, like countless electric snakes, frantically tearing at and consuming the deep blue Haki covering Barrett's body. Along the collision surface of their fists, they all crashed into Barrett's arm.

The terrifying binding force, amplified by the extremely high intensity of lightning, finally shattered Barrett's wrist bone, allowing the raging lightning surging from Rorschach's body to rush straight into Barrett's broken arm, continuously bombarding his body.

"A massive discharge of two billion volts! Thunder explosion!"

Taking advantage of the situation, Luo Xia released all the lightning power within his body and unleashed it.

In an instant, thick electric dragons surged out of his body, like ten thousand dragons returning to their nest, and plunged into Barrett's body, bombarding him from the inside out.

No matter how strong or monstrous Barrett's body was, it was all in vain at this moment.

His imposing armor was shattered, and his body was violently struck and destroyed by terrifying lightning from the inside, breaking through his defenses, piercing his body, and then blasting out from all parts of his body.

At that moment, Barrett was completely engulfed by the surging electric light.

His blood was evaporated by the high temperature of the lightning, his bones were shattered, his muscles were pierced, and his internal organs were burned.

Even the five sense organs and seven orifices on its head were spewing out intense electric light.

With a deafening roar, his entire body was blasted apart by the violent lightning, and before Luo Xia's eyes, it shattered into pieces, scattering into the murky soil.

"Is he finally dead?"

Rorschach breathed a sigh of relief, and his enormous body, now depleted of power, slowly shrank.

After fighting with all his might for most of the day, even he was feeling fatigued.

Now that Barrett is dead and Blackbeard is dead, everything on Soft Island has come to a perfect end.

Next, we should think about how to lead the main fleet to retreat so that the Five Elders will stop assigning them to continue besieging the NEO Navy.

"Ok?"

Luo Xia, who was preparing to retreat, suddenly stopped turning around and looked at the muddy soil in front of him.

A bizarre scene is unfolding.

Barrett's body, which had been completely lifeless, torn to pieces and charred by lightning, was actually moving.

Those shattered remains decomposed automatically, turning into cube-shaped blood and flesh crystals that surged in the turbid seawater and sand, converging on the surrounding blood and flesh crystals.

Rorschach's eyes widened. "No way? He's still alive? Barrett, don't tell me you can regenerate from a drop of blood."

With a grab of his right hand, he used the air rising from the ground to push aside the surrounding seawater. Deep blue domineering energy surged from his palm as he reached out and grabbed directly at the surging flesh and blood crystals.

Rorschach wanted to see what was going on.
