One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 212 Fujitora's Assistance

Luo Xia stood up, patted the corner of his clothes, and laughed, "Now that I've gotten what I wanted, it's time to go out and have a look around."

Garp stood up and laughed, "Perfect timing, I'm getting a little bored too."

Just as the group was about to leave, the Den Den Mushi in Garp's arms rang.

The group paused, and Garp slowly took out the Den Den Mushi from his pocket.

Garp answered the Den Den Mushi, and a very familiar voice came through—it was Sengoku.

"Moshi Moshi, is that Garp?"

Garp picked his nose and said, "Sengoku, what brings you here?"

We were just about to go out for a walk!

"Hmm? It seems you've been in Dressrosa for quite some time. How's the investigation going?" Sengoku asked.

Before Garp could speak, Rorschach took Garp's Den Den Mushi from the side.

Garp's expression didn't change at all when he heard this; instead, he plopped down on the bed.

"Marshal, we've already investigated most of what you asked us to investigate."

"However, the investigation is not yet complete."

Rorschach continued, "We've discovered that Doflamingo is secretly running some illegal transactions here, and he's also colluding with that bastard Kaido. However, the evidence isn't conclusive enough yet."

Sengoku said seriously, "Then you must find out the truth as soon as possible. This matter is of great importance. Doflamingo has too many connections behind him. If it is not handled properly, the entire New World will be in turmoil."

Luo Xia smiled confidently: "Don't worry, Marshal. It's no threat whatsoever to a fly that can be crushed at any time."

At this moment, Sengoku said, "By the way, I have assigned you a general to assist you in investigating Doflamingo."

Luo Xia raised an eyebrow. "Oh? It's not that Fujitora, is it?"

“That’s right, it’s Fujitora. He’s the only one who has free time right now.”

"Alright, but if he doesn't want to come along, then there's nothing we can do."

Sengoku nodded, "Alright, anyway, he can only help you with combat strength, he can't help you with anything else that requires thinking."

Luo Xia shrugged and said, "It doesn't matter, I'll take care of it."

"Even if one of the Four Emperors comes, there's always old man Garp to take action."

After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Rorschach looked at Garp.

Karp shrugged and stood up: "Looks like we'll have to put our shopping trip on hold for now. Kid, what are you planning to do?"

Luo Xia shrugged and said lazily, "Although I really don't want to get involved, I still have to."

Rorschach continued, "Let's go find Fujitora first and see what useful information he can give us."

Everyone nodded and walked out of the room together.

Walking through the streets of Dressrosa, the bustling scene contrasted sharply with Rorschach's languid expression.

"Boss, where do you think Fujitora will be?" Ace asked.

Luo Xia pursed his lips: "Who knows? But the general's salary must be high. He's probably having a good time in some casino."

Just then, a commotion broke out in the distance.

A man wearing sunglasses and holding a cane-knife was seen confronting a group of pirates.

“That must be Fujitora,” Rorschach said.

They walked over quickly.

Fujitora faced the pirates with a calm expression: "Causing trouble here is not a wise move."

The pirates laughed loudly: "You think a blind man like you can stop us?"

Fujitora smiled slightly, swung his staff sword, and a powerful force erupted, directly blasting the pirates away.

Luo Xia and the others came to Fujitora's side.

“Admiral Fujitora, it’s rare to see you take action against a bunch of small fry!” Rorschach said.

Fujitora, seemingly unconcerned, nodded and said, "I received orders from Fleet Admiral Sengoku to come and assist you."

Rorschach briefly explained the current situation.

Fujitora pondered for a moment: "Doflamingo has been operating on this island for a long time, and his forces are complex and intertwined. We must proceed with caution."

"It's not that complicated, we just need to wait."

"Besides, his partner Caesar is still in the hands of the Straw Hat crew, who have all the information about Doflamingo."

"And during the time I was watching the Corrida, I believe the Straw Hat crew has already found his factory where he manufactures artificial Devil Fruits."

"Although I really want to kill the Heavenly Yaksha right now, I don't have any evidence yet."

"So now we just need to wait."

Just then, Rorschach's Observation Haki detected a group of suspicious people approaching.

"Someone's here. They look like Doflamingo's men."

"Rorschach said in a low voice. Fujitora gripped his cane sword tighter, while Garp cracked his neck.

The group of people soon appeared before them. The leader nodded to Rorschach and then said respectfully, "Lieutenant General Qinglong, Lieutenant General Garp, General Fujitora, our young master invites you."

Luo Xia looked at the five people opposite him in surprise, then smiled. "He sent you to find us? Are you planning to throw your life away?"

The man leading the group tried to appear calm and said, "Our young master just wants to have a chat with you; he has no intention of throwing his life away."

Luo Xia curled his lip and said speechlessly, "I still need to find the demon they were talking about, I don't have time to go to the place of a defeated opponent."

The next instant, Luo Xia snapped his fingers, and the five people were instantly blown away by a gust of air.

Garp's eyes lit up as he asked, "What move?"

"Looks pretty strong."

Luo Xia said smugly, "Hehe, the air was compressed into the shape of a palm, and the five of them were sent flying."

Fujitora shook his head slightly and smiled helplessly, "I'm afraid you'll completely enrage Doflamingo if you do this."

Luo Xia waved his hand dismissively, "That guy will jump out sooner or later. Rather than waiting passively, we might as well provoke him."

"Besides, that guy can't beat me!"

Garp laughed heartily, "That's right, that's exactly how it should be! Even if one of the Four Emperors comes, it'll be fine!"

Rorschach grinned, "Moreover, this island has the Fun-Fun Fruit, the String-String Fruit, the Flutter-Flutter Fruit, the Water-Water Fruit, the Boom-Boom Fruit, the Weapon Fruit, and also the Healing Fruit that I want most."

Everyone stared at Rorschach in astonishment when they heard him announce so many Devil Fruits.

Rorschach shrugged and said, "Why are you looking at me? These fruits aren't something I made up; they all really exist."

"When the time comes, I will take them all out one by one."

When he said this, Rorschach's wicked smile made him look just like a villain.

Standing at the back, Blood Phoenix slowly said, "Boss, if you really do this, Doflamingo will definitely go crazy."

"Moreover, according to the intelligence I've gathered, these fruits are indeed on this island."

Luo Xia glanced at Xue Feng with surprise, then introduced him to Fujitora: "This is Xue Feng, a vice admiral in the navy. The fleet admiral forced him on me."

Fujitora nodded with a smile, "I know Blood Phoenix. It's very strong and causes a lot of trouble at headquarters."
