One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 216 Arguing

Doflamingo clutched his injured arm, his eyes glaring fiercely in Rorschach's direction. "You bastard, how dare you ambush me! None of you will leave Dressrosa today!"

Luo Xia smiled nonchalantly, "Look at you now? You can't stop me."

After this move, Sanji, Nami, and the others looked at Rorschach, especially Nami, who shouted excitedly, her eyes full of admiration.

Sanji looked at Rorschach with some surprise; he never expected that Rorschach, a Marine, would help him.

Of course, this was just Sanji misunderstanding.

At this moment, Luo Xia turned around, the Shura Blade slung over his shoulder, and grinned at the crowd, saying, "Phew! It feels much better after slashing that Heavenly Yaksha!"

Garp laughed and said, "You just love doing these sneak attacks."

"Well done, hahaha!"

Leo, who was standing on Rorschach's shoulder, swallowed hard and stammered, "Um, shouldn't we go rescue our princess?"

Luo Xia patted Leo on the head and teased, "Looks like you're scared after all!"

"Let's go, let's set off!"

Just as everyone was about to leave, Rorschach called out to them, "Old man, where are you going?"

"Huh? Didn't you say that I can't leave?"

Luo Xia shook his head and pointed to his head. "Are you getting old and senile?"

"I can use my abilities to lead you, and I can walk faster than you!"

Garp paused for a moment, then burst into laughter, "You brat, I forgot you had the Anywhere Door."

Luo Xia smiled slightly, snapped his fingers, and in the blink of an eye, Garp, Gion, and Blood Phoenix's hands were instantly frozen, with ice blocks connecting to each other.

Just as Gion frowned and was about to speak, Luo Xia led everyone away in an instant.

at the same time.

In an alley, Luo Xia led everyone into the alley in an instant.

Upon arrival, Gion complained, "Rorschach, why did you freeze us all?"

Luo Xia glanced at Zhiyuan speechlessly and said, "How can I take you away if your arms aren't connected?"

"I don't want to teleport that many times!"

Gion glared at Rorschach, "You can say it, right?"

"That would be a waste of time. It would be better to freeze you all, which would save us the time of talking."

Seeing that the two were about to argue again, Garp quickly stepped in front of them and said sternly, "Why are you two arguing again?"

"Alright, brat, weren't you still looking for the Healing Fruit?"

Let's set off first!

"Oh right, my fruit, I'll deal with you next time!"

Gion snorted coldly and cursed, "Let's see who deals with whom! Just wait and see how we get back after this mission!"

Luo Xia ignored Zhiyuan and turned to Leo: "Little guy, lead the way!"

Leo nodded and stood on Rorschach's shoulder to show him the way.

The crowd followed closely behind.

They weaved through the narrow streets and soon arrived at the palace in Dressrosa.

The Royal Palace of Dressrosa is located at the highest point in the city, and its exterior resembles a resort.

Leo stopped and pointed to the building, saying, "The princess is inside."

"I just don't know exactly where it is, because we can't get close to it at all."

Rorschach nodded, then turned to Garp beside him and asked, "Old man, do you think we should swagger in or use my teleportation to sneak past?"

Garp scratched his head. "I think we should just go in. With so many of us, are we afraid of those guys?"

Luo Xia shrugged. "Fine, I'll do as you say."

So the group headed towards the palace gates. The guards at the gates immediately became alert upon seeing them and drew their swords.

Luo Xia struck first, and ice needles pierced the guard's neck in an instant. The guard died before he could even cry for help.

This scene made Blood Phoenix's heart tremble with excitement. "Wow! This is amazing!"

"Boss, you're amazing!"

Rorschach scratched his head. "I'll teach you sometime!"

Luo Xia hadn't encountered a girl with such a sweet tongue in years.

He encountered almost exclusively people with fiery tempers or unpredictable personalities.

Blood Phoenix just happened to fill the void of his longing for the voice of a sweet girl.

Seeing Rorschach's reaction, Gion gritted his teeth, thinking to himself, "Damn Rorschach, I'll wait until you get back!"

Upon entering the palace, one is surrounded by a maze of corridors and rooms.

Leo whispered, "Everyone be careful, there might be a trap."

Rorschach activated his Observation Haki to sense the movement around him.

Suddenly, a group of soldiers surged out. Just as Jiyuan drew his golden arhat, before he could even make a move, the soldiers who had rushed at him instantly collapsed to the ground.

Everyone looked at Rorschach in surprise, only to see that his hands were emitting a faint light. It was he who had just used Conqueror's Haki to stun these soldiers.

Rorschach shrugged. "No problem."

The group continued walking forward, while Rorschach used all of his Observation Haki to scan the auras of all living beings in the entire palace.

Suddenly, Luo Xia stopped in his tracks and turned his gaze to the depths of the auditorium.

Rorschach pointed to the depths of the auditorium, "There seems to be a special aura there."

Without further hesitation, everyone stepped forward.

When they reached the back of the auditorium, they found a small locked door, and Rorschach yanked the lock off.

Upon opening the door, a huge iron cage came into view, inside which was a petite figure—the Lilliputian princess, Mansherry.

The princess looked very weak, and her eyes revealed fear and helplessness.

Upon seeing the princess, Leo couldn't help but exclaim, "Your Highness!"

Hearing the voice, the princess looked up, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes: "Leo!"

Rorschach stepped forward and carefully examined the lock on the iron cage, discovering that it was a special mechanism lock that required a specific password to open.

“This is a bit troublesome,” Rorschach frowned.

Karp said, "Let me try to force it open."

As he spoke, Garp mustered his strength and gripped the iron cage with both hands, pulling it outwards.

The next second, the iron cage began to bend outwards little by little.

A minute later, finally, with two sharp cracking sounds, the iron cage was torn open.

The princess stepped out of the iron cage and said weakly, "Thank you."

Luo Xia waved his hand, "It's alright, after all, we had a reason for saving you!"

Mansherry just smiled gently and said, "It's okay. Whatever your conditions are, I will agree as long as they are reasonable."

At this moment, Gion reminded her, "Shouldn't we be leaving?"

"This road isn't our territory?"

"You're smart enough to say that!" Rorschach said.

"you……"
