One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 277 Roger? Whitebeard?

Rorschach led Whitebeard and Roger into his office. Garp and the others who were following behind Rorschach wanted to follow, but were blocked by a faint barrier.

This infuriated Garp, who had just gotten excited, and he immediately shouted, "Hey, you brat, open the door right now! I need to know who those two guys you brought back are!"

Luo Xia shook his head helplessly and called out to the outside of the barrier, "Old man, wait a moment, I... I haven't figured out how to introduce them yet, just wait." After saying that, he ignored the noise outside.

Rorschach turned to look at Whitebeard and Roger, then plopped down in a chair.

The two people next to him also sat down alone on the sofa opposite the desk.

Luo Xia closed his eyes tightly, his entire consciousness sinking into the system.

Within the system space, Rorschach envisioned all the possibilities and countermeasures that would arise once Whitebeard and Roger's identities were revealed. He knew all too well the uproar these two legendary figures' appearance here would cause.

Outside the office, Garp was stomping his feet in anger. However, this barrier was created by Rorschach, and Garp knew how outrageous Rorschach's strength was. So, although he was very anxious to know their identities, he could only wait for now.

Of course, apart from Garp, the other four were also very eager, their eyes filled with curiosity.

She wasn't that curious when Ace was brought back to Gion by Rorschach, but this time she was genuinely curious.

Meanwhile, in the system space.

After thinking for a moment, Luo Xia slowly asked, "System, what are my mission rewards?"

"Don't tell me you don't."

The system paused for a moment before slowly saying: "Given the considerable difficulty of this mission, the rewards will naturally be substantial. You will receive one random ability enhancement opportunity and a Supreme Grade Sword that has been lost elsewhere."

Rorschach's eyes lit up. "Supreme Grade Sword? Don't tell me it's Supreme Grade Sword Ace."

[Ding! Rewards have been issued. Additionally, a Divine Lightning Bolt has been awarded as a bonus.]

As soon as the system finished speaking, a thunderous sound rang out, and Luo Xia instantly sprang up from his seat. He unleashed his Conqueror's Haki at full power, his fist coated in Conqueror's Haki as he slammed it heavily towards the dark blue lightning bolt.

In an instant, the lightning was blasted into fragments by Rorschach.

Luo Xia, panting heavily, secretly congratulated himself on his quick reflexes.

"System, are you trying to harm me?" Luo Xia muttered to himself in dissatisfaction.

"This divine lightning is merely a test for you. If you cannot even handle this, how can you shoulder the greater responsibilities ahead?" came the system's cold voice.

Luo Xia snorted, withdrew his domineering aura, and let out a long sigh.

Inside the office, Whitebeard and Roger were watching him with great interest.

"His Conqueror's Haki is stronger than Whitebeard's," Roger said with a smile.

Whitebeard nodded in agreement, "Indeed, this kid's potential is limitless."

Upon hearing their comments, Luo Xia's lips curled into a slight smile.

After the brief incident, Luo Xia also felt that his body had undergone a qualitative leap, and his overall physical strength had also reached a new level.

Thinking of this, Luo Xia immediately immersed his consciousness in the system. As soon as he entered the system space, Luo Xia saw the golden rapier.

Luo Xia's lips twitched, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself, "It really is true that what I lack comes to pass!"

After saying that, Luo Xia's consciousness returned to reality, along with the rapier.

Rorschach snapped his fingers, and the Supreme Grade Sword Ace immediately appeared in his hand.

The moment Roger saw the knife, he stood up from the sofa and stared intently at the rapier in Luo Xia's hand.

Roger's eyes were filled with excitement and nostalgia: "This sword... once belonged to my comrade."

Rorschach raised an eyebrow, then tossed it directly to Roger.

Luo Xia grabbed it, his excitement overflowing.

Rorschach looked at the Supreme Grade Sword Ace, then at Roger, and smiled, saying, "I didn't expect this sword to be yours. I found it before."

Although Rorschach's explanation was rather far-fetched, the simple-minded Roger was filled with gratitude and clearly believed him.

At this moment, Garp, who was outside the barrier, couldn't help but shout again, "Rorschach, have you two finished your negotiations yet?"

Rorschach looked at Roger and Whitebeard and slowly said, "Next, I'm going to reveal your identities, but don't lay a hand on me. This castle cost me a fortune to build; it can't withstand your destruction."

Rorschach took a deep breath and removed the barrier.

Karp was the first to rush in, shouting, "Who are these two guys?"

Rorschach took two steps back, pointed to Whitebeard and Roger, and said calmly, "This is Edward Newgate, and this is Gol D. Roger."

For a moment, the room fell into a deathly silence, and everyone stared wide-eyed.

Garp gaped in disbelief, "What did you say? Roger? And Whitebeard? How is this possible?"

At that moment, Roger threw off his black robe and laughed heartily, "Long time no see, Garp."

Garp seemed to snap out of a daze, adopting a wary fighting stance. "What do you want to do after you've been resurrected?"

Whitebeard scoffed dismissively, "We meant no harm, and it was this kid who resurrected us of his own accord."

"If you old geezer don't like it, then I'll go outside and have a fight with you, you old codger."

After hearing Whitebeard's words, Garp lowered his guard with some skepticism.

Rorschach continued, "These two are both formidable figures. Old man, if you're not afraid of getting beaten up, why don't you go fight them?"

"I'll make a good fool of you then."

Garp glared at Rorschach, but eventually lowered his fist, his gaze remaining fixed on the two of them.

Everyone was still in shock.

Gion took a step forward, carefully examining Roger and Whitebeard. "It really is you two. It's hard to believe. Rorschach, you're a monster. You can even resurrect someone like that?"

"Could it be that, as you say, you really intend to attack the World Government?"

These were almost all the things Luo Xia said to Zhiyuan in bed, so Zhiyuan's face turned slightly red when she said them.

Luo Xia shrugged. "We'll talk about this later. Right now, you all need to hear me explain what happened. Otherwise, I won't be able to clear my name."

Roger laughed and said, "The world has changed a lot, but it looks much more interesting now."

The white-bearded man stroked his beard, observing his surroundings with a deep gaze.

Rorschach cleared his throat and began to recount the entire incident, from discovering the special method of resurrection to searching for suitable soul fragments.

Everyone listened intently.

After an unknown amount of time, Luo Xia stopped speaking, and everyone looked at him in amazement.
