One Piece: Blue Scale Admiral

I wonder how Rorschach is doing now.

Hibari vaguely remembered that in the last moment before losing consciousness, she seemed to see the volcano in Wano Country erupt.

"I hope Brother Luo Xia will be alright."

She pursed her lips, preparing to explore the area first and find a way back to Wano Country as soon as possible.

Just then, Yun Que saw figures rapidly appearing on the open ground beside her; a rough count revealed at least several thousand people.

As the figures became clearer, familiar faces emerged one by one.

These people were none other than the soldiers of the G5 branch.

Yamato, Smoker, Law, Kirin, and others were all present.

The G5 members, who suddenly appeared in this world, were just like Hibari before them. They stood there stunned for a long time, looking around blankly, not knowing what had happened.

The lark quickly went over.

Yamato looked around at the dreamlike scene in confusion, scratching his head and saying, "Where is this place? Aren't I in Wano Country?"

Those around him shared the same question as Yamato.

Yun Que stepped forward and said, "I didn't expect you all to be here. I arrived a little earlier than you, but I'm completely confused about the current situation."

Luo remained calm, carefully observing his surroundings.

After a moment, he said, "Although I don't know where this is, the only thing capable of doing something so miraculous is a Devil Fruit ability. I think we might all be affected by some kind of Devil Fruit ability, either experiencing a mental hallucination or having come directly to another world, a world created by a Devil Fruit ability."

After hearing what Luo said, Yun Que and the others thought about it for a moment and all felt that what Luo said made a lot of sense.

"Then how do we get back?" Smoker asked, glancing at the others in the distance and vaguely recognizing some familiar pirate figures, which made him frown slightly.

"Since there are other people here, let's go ask them. Maybe someone knows where this place is."

In the end, Luo, who remained relatively calm, reached a consensus and decided to ask the people around them.

"Mom, do you think Dad might be here too?" Qilin ran up to Yun Que, tilted his head up and asked in a clear voice, which startled Yun Que for a moment, then made her happy.

Yes, how could she not have thought of that?

If Rorschach also enters this world, we might run into him later.

Thinking this, Yun Que's steps became lighter, and she pulled Qilin toward the direction where many people were gathering.

Soon, the G5 group walked through the flower-lined street and arrived at a large, open space.

Along the way, everyone who saw them avoided them, especially the pirates, whose expressions changed drastically and they fled in the opposite direction.

"It's the G5 army! Those terrifying guys actually came here, and so many of them."

"Be careful, everyone. Several of G5's top combatants are here. I've already spotted Lieutenant General White Wolf, Lieutenant General Lark, and General Red Heart."

"Have you spotted that man?" a pirate asked cautiously in a low voice.

"Who are you talking about?" His companion didn't understand.

"Who do you think I'm talking about? Who else could it be?! It's Blue... Shh! It's that man! Poppy, you bastard, are you trying to get me killed? Get out of my pirate crew!"

The New World pirate captain with a bounty exceeding 100 million Berries dared not utter the name he was thinking of, as if that name was some kind of taboo, and once spoken, it would bring about a fatal disaster.

Yamato and the others had, of course, noticed the sneaky pirates long ago, but they ignored them.

Right now, it's more important to understand the current situation.

The open land in front of us was vast and seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see.

In the center of this smooth, un-man-made bluestone square, there is a raised platform.

At this moment, the lights on the high platform are shining brightly, and huge, colorful musical notes are dancing around the platform. On the stage, a girl with red and white hair is singing passionately.

Her singing voice was ethereal and poignant, and then suddenly the melody rose sharply, becoming powerful and resonant, like a battle cry that stirred the hearts of the audience in the square, making them feel as if they were on the battlefield and wanted to shed their blood.

“That’s… Uta, the songstress! An idol singer whose fame rivals Karina’s.” Hibari recognized the girl singing loudly on stage at a glance.

"Don't you guys feel that the atmosphere here is a bit strange?" Luo jumped onto Pamel's shoulder and scanned the endless square in front of them.

At this moment, the huge square was packed with countless people, so many that it was impossible to know exactly how many tens of thousands there were.

Their thousands of G5 troops arrived here, like a drop of water falling into the ocean, becoming an insignificant bubble in the vast crowd.

"My God! Why are there so many people here? Are there millions, tens of millions, or even more?" Drake, who was marveling at the sheer number of people in front of him, looked at Luo with confusion upon hearing this. "What's so strange?"

"It is indeed a bit strange; everyone's emotions seem to be controlled by something invisible."

Smoker transformed into smoke and flew in mid-air, just like Law, scanning the huge crowd in the square before turning to look at the G5 army behind him.

Before they knew it, more than 80% of the soldiers had stopped in their tracks, their faces beaming with happiness. They were waving their arms to the music playing, seemingly enjoying the lively concert.

Drake was startled, but quickly realized what was happening and blurted out, "It's singing!"

Luo nodded slightly: "That's right, that girl's singing is affecting the people here. For safety reasons, I suggest that everyone plug their ears and not listen to the singing."

Bepo scratched his head, puzzled, and asked, "Wait a minute, why weren't we affected?"

"It's very simple. The stronger you are, the stronger your resistance to the song. Look at those ordinary people, they've completely fallen into the mood of the song. This isn't just simple emotional control! It's like... like manipulating these people, turning us into puppets of this song."

At this point, Smoker's expression turned serious.

He realized the seriousness of the problem.

“I think we might have to go and stop that woman from continuing to sing. I have a feeling that if we let her keep singing, something bad might happen.”

Everyone agreed with Smoker's analysis and quickened their pace, wanting to get closer to the raised stage in front of them.

But the crowds ahead were so huge, with so many enthusiastic and obsessed listeners, that it was impossible to get through.

"Fly over there! From the sky!" Drake shouted a warning.

Without him saying anything, Smoker and Lark had already taken to the sky and flew towards the stage.

Yamato, Bepo, and the others also rushed over using Moonwalk.

As the distance between them and the stage, and between them and Uta who was singing, gradually decreased, everyone's expressions changed.

"Can you feel it? Something is invading our minds, trying to control us!" Smoker, who was charging the fastest, shouted.

Luo shouted, "Plug your ears!"

"It's no use! It won't stop! Even if I stuff my ears with rags, these songs can still get into my brain, it's unbelievable!" Bepo exclaimed.

"What should I do? I feel like I can't get any closer. If I get any closer, even I might be at risk of being manipulated." Smoker stopped in mid-air, staring intently at Uta singing on the stage.

"let me!"

Like a gust of wind, it rushed past him, soaring over the surging crowd and rapidly approaching the central stage.

At the same time, Luo spread his fingers, and the surgical space rotated and expanded, enveloping all of G5.

"R-ROOM! Silence!"

Within the surgical space, all sound disappeared, including the unstoppable singing.

The soldiers, whose minds were disturbed by the pervasive singing and who had fallen into a state of almost obsessive pleasure, suddenly came to their senses when the singing stopped.

"Wow, Law! I never imagined you could develop your abilities to this extent!" In the silent surgical space, Drake opened his mouth in surprise and gave Law a thumbs up.

Unfortunately, the operating room blocked out sound, so Luo didn't hear Drake's rare praise; he could only see Drake's mouth moving, as if he were performing a pantomime.

He saw Drake sigh again, shaking his head and saying, "But if you want to help everyone here, it's still far from enough. There are too many people; your abilities can't cover that wide area."

"Wait... if you can block out the sound..." Smoker's eyes widened, and he quickly pointed at Law, then at the stage, "Wouldn't your move be a perfect counter to that woman who made that demonic sound? Law! Use your power to envelop the stage and trap that Uta inside!"

Although there was no sound, Law understood Smoker's meaning and suddenly realized.

Yes, he could completely envelop Uta in a silent surgical space.

The problem can be effectively solved by addressing the source of the sound.

In this way, there is no need to rescue the countless spectators around them one by one.

Without hesitation, he opened the surgical space and teleported forward, arriving faster than Yamato and rushing onto the towering stage in the middle of the square!

Luo opened his right hand toward Uta, who was singing on the stage below, and the surgical space suddenly expanded!

"R-ROOM! Silent Surgery!"

Uta's eyes widened, and she looked up at Luo, who had suddenly appeared, seemingly momentarily stunned.

The silent space in Luo's hand descended, enveloping the stage and trapping Uta within it.

In an instant, the singing that had been echoing between heaven and earth came to an abrupt halt, as if someone had unplugged the stereo that was playing the song.

As the sounds ceased, the cheers of the countless spectators in the square gradually quieted down. They looked at each other, freed from the strange, blissful atmosphere they had been in, and the bustling world turned into silence.

"Fantastic! The lieutenant general succeeded!" Bepo couldn't help but cheer.

"Let Luo bring that woman here. I think she must know something. Maybe the reason so many of us are here is because of her."

Drake said loudly.

Luo clearly thought so too.

After successfully enveloping Uta in the silent surgical space, he flashed to appear in front of Uta and was about to reach out and grab her when he was suddenly startled and sensed a dangerous aura.

Luo always trusted his intuition, and without the slightest hesitation, he moved away from Uta.

But it was too late!

"Totemjika's singing cannot be erased, as has been proven many times in the past. Each time it has been proven, it has led to terrible disasters."

To Luo's astonishment, Uta was still able to speak inside his silent operating room.

Not only that, she started humming again.

A melody, completely different from the previous cheerful and passionate tunes, sounded desolate and ancient, like a cold wind blowing from a gloomy ancient castle. It came from her mouth and transformed into dark notes and musical staves, colliding with the invisible surgical space and actually breaking through the surgical space that shrouded the stage!

The next moment, the ancient melody began again, its sound growing even louder and echoing throughout the world.

The countless viewers, briefly regaining their senses, were once again plunged into a blissful trance, their faces beaming with foolish smiles.

At this moment, it wasn't just these ordinary spectators; as the ancient song from Uta's mouth echoed, pirates and marines in every corner of the world began to fall into that empty happiness devoid of self, their faces showing satisfied, silly smiles.

Even the mid- to high-ranking officers in the G5 are not immune and are being affected.

"Looks like I'm the one who has to make a move."

"What a troublesome woman, why not just knock her out with a stick?"
