One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 82 Departure to the Amazon

Three days later...

Training ground at Gion Villa.

Luo Xia was leisurely drinking his beverage when suddenly a streak of purple light flashed across the sky.

The purple light descended upon Rorschach at an extremely fast speed.

Luo Xia stared blankly at the mole in front of him and asked, "Um, Lieutenant General Mole, is there something you need?"

"Yes, Rorschach, we're ready to set off for Daughter Island!"

Rorschach pondered for a moment and nodded.

So many days have passed, it's definitely time.

Luo Xia stood up and stretched his body, making a series of crisp "crackling" sounds.

"Rorschach, do you want me to take you?"

Rorschach shook his head and simply said, "Let's go, meet at the port!"

Rorschach ignored the mole, activated his Space Fruit, and made everything within his sight a target he could switch between.

In an instant, Rorschach appeared several hundred meters away.

The mole in front of him stared in disbelief.

Then the mole gave a wry smile, "My Glint-Glint Fruit was given to me by someone else, and I still wanted to bring Rorschach along!"

About a minute later, Rorschach arrived at the port.

Luo Xia yawned out of boredom, looked around, and found that the port was full of warships. Which one should he board?

Just then, the mole's voice came from behind, "Azure Dragon, this is our warship!"

Rorschach turned his head and saw that it was Mole, who was already waiting for him in front of a warship.

Luo Xia understood and immediately walked towards the warship.

As soon as Luo Xia boarded the warship, he saw dozens of marines lined up neatly in three rows.

"General Qinglong, you are good!" the crowd shouted in unison.

The sound startled Rorschach.

"Ahem, hello...hello everyone!"

Rorschach had never seen so many marines greeting him in unison before, and he was quite nervous.

"Alright, everyone get back to your posts."

"Ready to set off, destination: Daughter Island!"

The marine in charge of steering the ship nodded seriously. "Yes, Vice Admiral Mole, prepare to set sail. Destination: Amazon Lily!"

As the warship slowly sailed on the sea, a soldier in a naval uniform walked up to Rorschach with a wooden deck chair in his hand.

"Lieutenant General Qinglong, we know you like reclining chairs, so this is a reclining chair we prepared for you."

Luo Xia was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously took it.

He hadn't expected the navy on the ship to be so thoughtful. He had been thinking of using his abilities to create one, but they had actually prepared one.

Luo Xia smiled kindly, picked up a deck chair, casually found a corner, and lay down.

However, Rorschach hadn't been lying down for long when he saw the mole also come over with a chair.

Rorschach glanced at the mole and casually asked, "Lieutenant General Mole, how's your familiarity with the fruit going these past two days?"

"If you're not used to it, I can help you extract your power!"

The mole's eyes widened, and he swallowed hard. I asked in astonishment, "This... this ability can be sucked out?"

"No way! I was just saying it casually, don't worry about it, don't worry about it!"

Even though Rorschach said so, how could the meticulous mole possibly overthink it?

But that's something Rorschach wouldn't know.

"Um... Lieutenant General Mole, why do all the soldiers on your ship call me General Azure Dragon?"

The mole patted his forehead and said, "Because ever since you decided on the code name, Fleet Admiral Sengoku has informed all the naval commanders, who then relayed it to their subordinates."

"Oh, I see. That's not bad!"

"By the way, we're going to Amazon Lily, the territory of that pirate empress, right?"

The mole nodded. "That's right, but Empress Boa Hancock might not agree to this summons."

"Disagree? Then can we just take action?"

"I want to test my current strength!"

Rorschach's words were astonishing. Putting aside whether Rorschach could defeat the Empress, his petrification ability alone would make him a formidable opponent.

The mole pondered for a long time, then shook his head and gave a wry smile. "I really don't know whether we can take action or not. You can ask Marshal Sengoku!"

"That's right. If we take action and don't report to that old guy, we'll definitely get a scolding when we get back!"

Xuanji Luoxia took out a Den Den Mushi, which was given to her by Gion!

Meanwhile, in the Warring States office.

At that moment, Sengoku's Den Den Mushi, which he was holding while working, suddenly rang.

Sengoku pulled out a Den Den Mushi and asked, "Is this Rorschach?"

"That's right, that's right, it is indeed me, the Warring States Marshal!"

"What are you up to now, kid?"

"Ahem, haven't we already set off for Daughter Island with Vice Admiral Mole?"

"I want to ask..."

Before Luo Xia could finish his question, the monk's fiery temper flared up immediately, "What are you up to now, kid?"

"Old... Fleet Admiral Sengoku, I'd like to ask, if this Pirate Empress refuses to cooperate and even attacks us, may I take action?"

Sengoku was taken aback; he hadn't expected Luo Xia to ask such a question.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. The place that Rorschach and his crew are going to is the territory of the Pirate Empress.

After a moment of contemplation, Zhan Guo slowly said, "Yes, as long as she attacks you, you can naturally retaliate."

"However... if you're doing it all by yourself, then just remember one thing!"

Luo Xia frowned, puzzled. "Wha...what is it?"

"Hey kid, remember to run if you can't beat them, don't get petrified, or our navy will be in a very passive position."

"And another thing, you carry the hopes of our navy on your shoulders. Don't be a braggart when you can't win with your synthetic abilities!"

As Sengoku rambled on on and on, Luo Xia, who was reclining on the warship, sat up abruptly on the other end of the phone, his face turning ashen.

Rorschach stared silently at the Den Den Mushi, then hung up the phone a second later; he didn't want to listen to a monk chanting sutras.

"So long-winded!"

"Don't I know that if you can't beat someone, you should run away?"

"In today's world, there's no one I can run from. If I can't beat someone, why would I stay there if I don't run?"

"Does this Warring States Marshal even know just how fast I can run?"

After listening to Rorschach's explanation, the mole wanted to laugh but was too embarrassed to laugh directly, so his face turned bright red.

Luo Xia pursed his lips and ignored the mole. Instead, he took out a thin blanket from his spatial storage, covered himself with it, and closed his eyes.

Of course, Luo Xia wasn't sleeping; he went into the system space.

"System, draw a prize!"

[Ding! 500 million Berries deducted, lottery roulette started.]

In an instant, the empty space in front of them suddenly transformed into a roulette wheel.

The roulette wheel spun wildly, dazzling Rorschach.

About a minute later...

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the Anywhere Door recipe.]

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the storage capsule formula.]

[Ding! Congratulations on gaining a 10% increase in Space Fruit development.]

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining 1 Stone]

[Ding! The giveaway has ended. Thank you for participating!]

As the system finished speaking, four new items appeared in the system space.

Luo Xia said speechlessly, "What's the other one?"

[Ding! You didn't get anything on the last draw, so the system won't announce it.]

As the system explained, Luo Xia's face darkened completely. It was bad enough that he hadn't drawn any combat skills, but he hadn't drawn anything at all for the last item.

What I drew turned out to be some useless items, all of them were auxiliary.

Out of the corner of his eye, Luo Xia saw something emitting white light in the system space.

"A 15% increase in the development of Space Fruit abilities?"

Luo Xia grinned, picked up the ball of light, and the light turned into starlight, directly merging into Luo Xia's body.

Luo Xia felt a warm current flow through his body, and similarly, some techniques and applications of the Space Fruit appeared in his mind.

Rorschach was overjoyed.
