One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 72 Luo Xia: Why don't you eat it, Marshal Sengoku? Let's see if you explode!

Luo Xia shook his head, trying to shake the drowsiness out of his mind.

Luo Xia looked at the two people standing in front of him. He vaguely remembered that one of them was called Mole.

The other person was tall, with half-closed eyes, and looked very kind.

"Um, well, old... Warring States Marshal, who is this?" Luo Xia asked, pointing to Huoshaoshan standing in front of him.

Standing not far away, Sengoku's face darkened; he had just clearly heard the word "old."

So this brat was trying to call me an old monk?

Before Sengoku could think further, Gion, who was standing next to Rorschach, shoved Rorschach and said irritably, "You bastard, the man standing in front of you is Lieutenant General Fire Mountain, who is extremely strong!"

After the explanation from Gion, Rorschach gradually began to recall.

Although he knows what they look like, who can remember their name!

Luo Xia smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I've only just joined the Navy and haven't seen so many officers before."

Gion couldn't help but roll her eyes, thinking to herself, "You've been here for a year now, you're not a new recruit anymore!"

Huoshaoshan smiled gently and waved his hand, "It's alright, Rorschach!"

Sengoku, who was standing to the side, was playing with the Magma-Magma Fruit. He looked at Rorschach and, seeing that he hadn't said who he wanted to give it to, couldn't help but urge him, "You brat, you still haven't said who you're going to give it to!"

Luo Xia tilted his head slightly and saw Zhan Guo's dark face. Judging from his expression, someone had offended him, and this old monk was taking his anger out on him.

Luo Xia said slowly and deliberately, "Why don't you eat it, Marshal Sengoku?"

"After all, I don't know if the fruit I synthesized can explode with the Buddha Fruit inside your body."

"How about... you try it on for me?"

"Whoosh!" As soon as Luo Xia finished speaking, Zhan Guo's already jet-black face turned even darker in an instant.

Upon seeing this, Rorschach activated his Space-Space Fruit and instantly teleported behind Garp, revealing only his eyes.

Gion couldn't help but gently touch his forehead.

This guy really doesn't learn his lesson. He offended the marshal while he was sleeping, and now he still dares to say such things. I hope the marshal won't take action!

Standing there, Sengoku's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He looked at where Garp was sitting and couldn't help but curse at Garp: "Damn Garp, Rorschach is really becoming more and more like you!"

"Hahaha, I picked up Rorschach, so it's no surprise he looks just like me!"

At this moment, Luo Xia whispered, "I think it would be better to give this fruit to Lieutenant General Huoshaoshan!"

Sengoku glanced at Rorschach, then slowly sat down in the chair Rorschach had made earlier and asked, "Can you explain this?"

Luo Xia's lips twitched. He... his reason was probably going to get him roasted to death by everyone present.

"Um, I judged it by body type!"

"If it were Vice Admiral Mole, his swordsmanship would be quite impressive, so the Glint-Glint Fruit would be a good fit!"

At this moment, Huoshaoshan's eyes were practically crinkling with laughter, and his affection for Luo Xia grew even stronger.

In comparison, the mole felt rather disheartened. Rorschach actually judged based on body size; he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Sengoku said irritably, "I don't have any extra Glint-Glint Fruits. Didn't you give your only Glint-Glint Fruit to Momousagi?"

“I do have one more here!” Rorschach said this in a very low voice.

But Rorschach forgot that everyone present possessed Observation Haki, and even though his voice was soft, it reached everyone's ears.

Upon hearing Rorschach's words, the mole became immediately excited.

You have to understand that this is the Glint-Glint Fruit, not the Magma-Magma Fruit, and he uses a sword.

There's a saying that goes, "In the world of martial arts, speed is the only thing that can't be broken," and the Glint-Glint Fruit is synonymous with speed.

Among Devil Fruits, this one ranks among the top three in speed.

"Oh? You also have a Glitter-Glitter Fruit?"

"Could it be leftovers from the last synthesis?"

Rorschach was instantly defeated when his eyes met Sengoku's.

Immediately, Rorschach turned around, facing the window, and sat down, not daring to meet Sengoku's eyes.

He feared that his achievements would be taken away by the Warring States period.

Sengoku waited for a long time but Luo Xia did not reply. At first glance, Luo Xia actually sat down with his back to him.

Because Garp's entire frame is very large, he completely obscures Rorschach, so it's normal that Sengoku can't see him.

Sengoku gave Gion a wink, and Gion nodded slightly.

Then, Gion slowly walked towards Rorschach, and the next second Gion grabbed Rorschach.

What are you doing?

Gion revealed a charming smile and said softly, "Marshal Sengoku is looking for you!"

Before long, Luo Xia sat back down on the recliner, facing Sengoku, whose eyes were shining.

Luo Xia's eyes were firm, and he crossed his arms. "Although this is one of the last ones left over from last time, I can't give it to you!"

"Moreover, the color of this fruit is somewhat special, not as yellow as Admiral Kizaru's, nor as pink as Gion's."

Just as Sengoku was about to speak, Aokiji, who had been silent all along, asked, "Rorschach, the fruit you mentioned has a rather unusual color. So... what color is it?"

In an instant, everyone's eyes were on Luo Xia.

Rorschach didn't say anything, but simply flipped his little hand, and a green object resembling the Glint Fruit appeared in his hand.

Luo Xia held the fruit in his hand and twirled it around. After everyone had looked at it, Luo Xia put the fruit back into his spatial storage.

Kizaru was stunned when he saw the fruit. What had he just seen?

It was a green Devil Fruit, and it looked exactly the same as the one I ate decades ago. It was unbelievable!

Kizaru looked at Rorschach with disbelief, or rather, shock.

"That's terrifying, Rorschach kid!"

Rorschach pursed his lips and said firmly, "This color is no good. I don't believe Lieutenant General Mole would eat it!"

"so……"

“I think green isn’t a bad option either!” Lieutenant General Mole touched his nose and stared at Rorschach with burning eyes.

Rorschach was genuinely shocked; this mole general was truly hungry!

Rorschach waved his hand, "Unless you bring money, you're dreaming!"

Luo Xia looked around and slowly said, "Well, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now!"

"Wait!"

Luo Xia paused, his raised foot halting, and looked at Sengoku with a puzzled expression.

Sengoku slowly walked up to the two of them, twirling the magma fruit in one hand.

The next second, Sengoku exerted force and stuffed the Magma Fruit into Fire Mountain's mouth.

Fire Mountain's eyes widened, and the next moment it almost instinctively bit down.

Just as I was about to go downstairs, a stench of smelly socks and rotten fruit hit my nose.

Fire Mountain instinctively felt like vomiting, but he couldn't help but think of Akainu using his powers.

About a minute later, Huoshaoshan, his eyes bloodshot, swallowed the whole fruit.

The sheer impact of this scene left all the ability users present speechless.

"Ahem, after careful consideration, I have decided that this fruit should still be used by Huoshaoshan."

"When I manage to deduct 800 million from the military budget, you can eat that mole again. At that time, I'll have that brat Luo Xia change its color for you!"

When he said this, Sengoku's face turned slightly red, clearly embarrassed.

After all, two people were called in to decide who got the fruit, and one of them didn't get it, which made Sengoku blush with embarrassment.

The mole smiled gently and waved his hand, "It's alright, Marshal Sengoku, it doesn't matter whether there are fruits or not."

Upon hearing this, Luo Xia instinctively hid behind Zhiyuan, feeling somewhat guilty.
