One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 79 Rorschach's Future Fate

Luo Xia swallowed hard and subconsciously took a step back.

"Ahem, old man, what were you planning to do by clenching your fist just now?"

"And I have a feeling that if I hadn't taken you away, you probably would have already beaten those couples to a pulp!"

Luo Xia deliberately lowered his voice, afraid that the couples in the distance would hear him.

Garp sighed deeply and then plopped down on the ground.

Luo Xia also sat down, and then with a flick of his wrists, a bottle of Moutai liquor appeared in his hands.

Rorschach tossed it straight to Karp.

Karp didn't stand on ceremony, unscrewed the cap, and started gulping it down.

Rorschach wasn't in a hurry either. After Garp gulped down a bottle, Garp said quietly, "That Ace is my grandson!"

"Ok, I know!"

Karp was taken aback, but he didn't ask any further questions; such a simple matter could be easily found out with a simple search.

Luo Xia's gaze was calm, but what he said the next moment was astonishing.

"Your grandson, right?"

"That's right, that brat has been arrested!"

"It's actually very easy to solve; you don't need to do it yourself!"

"If you had made a move just now, your image as a naval hero would have been ruined!" Luo Xia said with a grin.

"Should I make a move?"

"I can wipe out those couples in an instant, then I'll just take your grandson and run away, how about that?"

"And I can guarantee that the navy personnel present will not capture me, but that's not necessarily true!"

Garp swallowed hard, his throat dry, and stood up a second later, his eyes serious. "No way! Even if you're rotten, you brat, you'll rot in the Navy. I won't allow it!"

Garp's gaze softened as he looked at Ace, and Rorschach even noticed tear tracks on Garp's eyes.

"Since that kid wasn't strong enough, he deserved to be captured. You shouldn't have been dragged into it!"

As Rorschach and Garp continued their conversation, Sengoku, who was in the distance, finally shouted, "Garp! What are you two talking about?"

Rorschach grinned, revealing eight teeth, but said nothing. However, he did put his arm around Garp's arm.

The next instant, Rorschach and Garp appeared directly next to Sengoku.

Meanwhile, the ship belonging to the CP organization, used to transport Ace, had already slowly started moving.

At this moment, Ace had already been grabbed by two marines and made to stand aside.

The moment Garp and Ace made eye contact, Ace immediately lowered his head, seemingly not wanting Garp to see him like this.

Rorschach glanced at Ace and then at Garp, his eyes darting around as if he were thinking about something, a mischievous smile playing on his lips.

The things he said to Garp before made it sound like he was about to rescue Ace.

Garp noticed Rorschach's expressive face, his heart skipped a beat, and his large, pincer-like hand instantly grabbed Rorschach.

As Luo Xia was deep in thought, he was suddenly grabbed by a large hand and cried out in pain, "Ouch, ouch, ouch... It hurts, old man!"

"Bear the pain with me, or I'll give you a loving iron fist!"

Rorschach immediately shut up, and when he looked at Ace, he shook his head with a regretful expression.

At this moment, Sengoku said, "Those guys from the World Government said they'd receive a Den Den Mushi from Blackbeard later, as if they wanted to talk to me about something!"

"Hmph, just a pirate, what important things could he possibly have to say!"

Even Akainu, with his iron-fisted methods, despises pirates like Blackbeard.

However, catching pirates would be a good solution.

"Vice Admiral Mole will be in charge of escorting Fire Fist Ace, along with a few other vice admirals!"

The mole said solemnly, "I guarantee I'll complete the mission!"

Rorschach glanced at Ace, then at Sengoku, and said with a grin, "Fleet Admiral, I'd like to join too, but I don't know..."

"No, Ace's situation is special. You are the youngest vice admiral in our navy, and we can't afford any accidents. It would be better if a senior vice admiral escorted you!"

Rorschach's lips twitched. Judging from the situation, it seemed he wouldn't be able to get close to Ace!

"Well... okay, I've been wanting to research something lately."

Rorschach tugged at his arm, and this time Garp actually let go of his arm.

……

Several tens of minutes later, Luo Xia followed Sengoku and his group into Sengoku's office.

Upon arriving at the office, Sengoku turned around and said sternly, "Brigadier General Rorschach, listen to my command!"

"Yes!"

"Because you demonstrated great strength in your duel with Vice Admiral Fire Mountain and defeated the Vice Admiral."

"Therefore, you are hereby promoted to Vice Admiral, a promotion that is exceptional!"

Luo Xia scratched his head and said with a smile, "Thank you, Marshal. So you weren't lying to me!"

Sengoku's expression stiffened, but he still gestured to Gion beside him with his eyes.

Zhiyuan smiled slightly, and with a flash of light in his hand, the cloak that was originally hanging behind Luo Xia instantly fell off.

She slowly handed the folded cloak to Rorschach.

Luo Xia reached out and took it, then opened it directly. Luo Xia looked around and found that there was no difference!

However, since it was given to Rorschach by the Sengoku period, he should keep it.

Rorschach exerted force in his hand, directly hanging the cloak behind him.

Sengoku looked Luo Xia up and down with satisfaction. "Not bad, not bad, quite handsome!"

"It's alright, I'm only slightly more handsome than you!"

"Alright, stop joking around. Now, let's announce the most important thing about this incident."

Sengoku cleared his throat and announced, "Because Lieutenant General Rorschach is still relatively inexperienced, he is hereby specially assigned to take charge of the New World G_5 for two years!"

"The order to become the highest-ranking officer of G_5 has been read!"

Rorschach's eyes widened as he asked, "Which island is the G-5 branch on?"

"The G-5 branch is near Fishman Island. You'll find out the exact island when you get there."

"Of course, you can decide the timing!"

Rorschach nodded. "Can I make a request?"

Sengoku looked up, raised an eyebrow, and asked with interest, "What request do you want to make?"

Luo Xia thought for a moment and then slowly said, "I recently designed a ship. I wonder if the navy can help me build it?"

As soon as Luo Xia said this, the office fell silent.

After a long silence, Sengoku's cough broke the stillness. "Sure, as long as you pay!"

"If you want to sit by yourself, you only need to pay for the materials!"

"Of course, if you want to hire a few people to help you, the Navy has plenty!"

Rorschach nodded, then added, "When I go to the New World, could you provide me with a cook?"

Sengoku's face darkened, and he picked up the pen on the table and threw it at Rorschach.

Luo Xia tilted his head slightly and immediately dodged it.

Just as the Warring States period was about to continue, a phone rang, "Brub brub bru!"

Zhan Guo frowned, picked up the phone, and before he could speak, a wicked laugh came from the other end of the line, "Zehahahahaha!"

"Hahahaha!"
