One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

This was a unique aura that even Wang Zhi had never possessed.

It seems that this heavy halberd, which Wang Zhi called the Heavenly Dragon Halberd, was naturally compatible with Luo Xia, who could control lightning.

Now it's like a pearl covered in dust has been swept away, revealing its true nature.

At this moment, Luo Xia seemed to have become one with the Heavenly Dragon Halberd in his hand, unleashing a domineering, unrestrained, and violent aura without restraint.

This soaring, domineering fighting spirit caused Smoker, who was swooping down from the sky, to break out in a cold sweat.

This Logia-type Devil Fruit user actually sensed a deadly threat to his life from Rorschach.

The aura that made him tremble was emanating from a boy who was only thirteen years old, which made Smoker feel a strong sense of shame for no reason.

"Ah! White smoke emitter! White Dragon!"

Smoker's body twisted, spewing out huge clouds of white smoke that formed a ferocious white smoke dragon in the air. He gripped black ten hands in his claws and slammed down on Rorschach's head with tremendous force.

Luo Xia's full head of silver hair danced wildly, strands of lightning piercing through the void. His battle halberd, imbued with the force of wind and thunder, was gripped by his muscular hands. Across more than ten meters of void, he slashed heavily at the flying smoke dragon!

"Fifty million volts!"

"Rachel!"

The heavy halberd slashed down, and the air above their heads exploded with a deafening roar, bursting into a massive cloud of air.

Before the white smoke dragon descending from above could even get close, the ten hands it was holding in its claws were shattered by the shockwave that surged upwards.

The enormous smoke dragon also exploded, turning into a sky full of smoke.

Boom!

A tremendous burst of air exploded in the sky above Marineford's square.

A violent shockwave swept outwards, blasting away all the onlookers.

Hundreds of new recruits were blown away like straws, leaving only Luo Xia's towering, mountain-like figure standing straight, holding a heavy, black halberd in his hand. His aura was like oil boiling over a raging fire, as if he could pierce the sky and tear the heavens and earth apart!

"This kid! The aura he exudes is truly... truly terrifying! And he's so young!"

Adila leaped off the warship and stood on the stone steps of the inner bay, gazing at the silver-haired boy standing proudly in the center of the square, the center of attention. An admiring smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

Behind him, Akainu's eyes reflected Rorschach's arrogant demeanor, and he was slightly startled.

Even though he was known for his strictness, he was quite satisfied with Rorschach's performance at this moment.

"It's broken through! It's broken through!"

Suddenly, an uproar erupted among the new recruits.

Smoker was seen re-forming on the ground in the distance, but his face was deathly pale.

The faces of thousands of new recruits were filled with shock as they looked at Rorschach, who was slowly returning to human form, with eyes full of awe.

At this moment, these new recruits no longer felt the slightest contempt or disdain for Luo Xia, this newcomer.

Yes, there is only respect and awe for the strong.

This young recruit from Beihai actually managed to break through the recruit camp.

Not only that, but they also broke through the instructors' team of officers at headquarters.

Moreover, he looked quite relaxed, showing no signs of exhaustion.

Is this something a newcomer can do?

The recruits completely lost any thought of competing with Rorschach.

Because this boy has already reached another level, far surpassing ordinary people like them.

This is what they call a monster!

A new monster from the North Sea!

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

A series of loud bangs echoed in the sky as several burly figures rapidly traversed the air, flying from afar and landing in front of Luo Xia.

Upon closer inspection, everyone immediately stood up straight and saluted.

"Fleet Admiral Sengoku! Vice Admiral Garp! Admiral Zephyr!"

"Tap." "Tap."

The dull footsteps came from behind. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a tall figure, as if it were exploding like a volcano, approaching from afar.

"Admiral Akainu!"

Upon seeing Akainu's familiar figure, Rorschach's face broke into a genuine smile.

"Uncle Sakazuki! Uncle Adila!"

"Long time no see, Rorschach! Your progress is truly impressive!"

Adila stepped forward, patted Luo Xia on the shoulder heavily, saluted Sengoku, and then walked aside with a smile.

Akainu walked up to Rorschach and nodded slightly to him.

"Don't let your guard down; this level of strength is far from enough."

"Yes! I won't let my guard down, Uncle Sakazuki!"

Rorschach stood ramrod straight, just as he had done on the Akainu warship, raising his hand in salute to this most iron-willed soldier of headquarters.

"Well done! Kid! You have half the flair I had back in the day! Hahahaha."

Garp laughed and patted Rorschach on the shoulder.

Zefa also had a smile on his face.

The three old men's eyes were shining; Rorschach's performance made them extremely happy.

I've struck gold!

Chapter 99 Major of the Headquarters

Over the years, Sengoku and Zephyr, among other high-ranking officers at headquarters, have been worrying about the next generation of the navy.

Although the overall strength of the navy has not weakened, it is still increasing.

Because Akainu and the other two admirals are still at their peak in terms of combat power, and it is the time when they can fight.

However, Sengoku and Zephyr had to admit that after Akainu, Kizaru, and Aokiji, the Navy had not produced any other outstanding new generation geniuses with monstrous talent.

Gion, Kake, Smoker, Drake, and others are all considered outstanding geniuses.

But it's still a long way from being a monster.

If Akainu and his two companions decline from their peak and the Navy's new generation of combat power hasn't caught up, then the Navy will likely face a difficult predicament.

That's when things start to go downhill.

On the other hand, let's look at the pirates.

Over the years, a constant stream of talented and capable new talents has emerged.

In recent days, the landscape of the new world has undergone another dramatic change.

Shanks, the captain of the Red-Haired Pirates and once a junior apprentice under Roger, officially ascended to the throne of the Emperor of the New World, becoming the fourth emperor after Whitebeard, Kaido, and Big Mom.

The world now officially refers to these four as the "Four Emperors" who stand at the top of the ocean!

"Good, good, good!" Sengoku said three times, then announced in front of all the new recruits, "New recruit Luo Xia, listen to my command, from today onwards, your rank is promoted to major of headquarters!"

"Starting tomorrow, I will officially begin my individual training with Zephyr!"

"Major...?"

Luo Xia blinked, looking at the somewhat excited Sengoku, wondering if he had misheard.

Seeing Luo Xia's puzzled expression, Sengoku and Zephyr exchanged a glance and burst into laughter.

"Kid, you heard me right, it's the major from headquarters."

"In the past year, you have captured more than 3,000 pirates who have been ravaging the area in Beihai."

"He personally killed Mig Jones, who had committed numerous massacres of villages and islands."

"In the Prince Kingdom incident, you took the lead, were not afraid of sacrifice, and fought bravely. Your performance was outstanding."

"In addition to his outstanding performance today, his individual strength is far superior to that of other new recruits in the same period."

"Therefore, after discussions between me, Zephyr, and Garp, your rank will be directly promoted to colonel."

As Zhan Guo spoke, the smile on his face faded, and he looked at Luo Xia seriously, saying:

"However, you don't need to care too much about military rank. For you right now, the most important thing is to improve your own strength. You are still young. Letting you handle those tedious military affairs now will only slow down your progress."

"Once you graduate from Zephyr and the others, headquarters will make appropriate arrangements based on your personal opinions and combat strength."

Then, Sengoku looked at Akainu beside him and asked, "Sakazuki, what do you think?"

"I have no objection."

Akainu shook his head slightly.

"Speaking of which, this weapon looks somewhat familiar."

Zephyr stepped forward, took the double-edged halberd from Rorschach's hand, and examined it in his mechanical hand.

Garp picked his nose. "It does look familiar, huh? Isn't that the national treasure of the Flower Country?"

"The national treasure of the Flower Country?" A question mark appeared above Rorschach's head. "Didn't Uncle Adila say that this weapon was stolen from the Great Pirate King Nao? How did it become the national treasure of the Flower Country?"

Zefa shook his head. "It is indeed Wang Zhi's weapon, but it is also a national treasure of the Flower Country, an ancient halberd, the Heavenly Dragon Halberd, which is one of the twenty-one Great Swords. Although Wang Zhi has never said which sea he came from, we guess that he should have a great connection with the Flower Country. Because Green Pepper has always maintained contact with him."

"Green pepper?" Garp laughed. "That guy's head, I smashed it flat, hahaha, he's probably retired to his hometown now."

“I can tell that this weapon suits you very well, Rorschach.”

Zhan Guo also took the Heavenly Dragon Halberd, examined it carefully for a while, and couldn't help but admire the complex patterns on the halberd's jet-black surface.

"This halberd is extraordinary; it's probably already being transformed into a black blade by the overwhelming aura it possesses."

"Black Knife?" Luo Xia exclaimed in surprise. "Is Wang Zhi that powerful? His weapon is almost as good as Black Knife?"

A black sword is a weapon that can only be formed through the long-term nurturing of powerful Armament Haki.
