One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 172 Rorschach Refuses Promotion to General

Sengoku rolled his eyes at the goofy Rorschach and said speechlessly, "I really don't know where you got such a strange Devil Fruit."

"By the way, could you introduce the five men behind you?"

"The fact that you brought them here suggests they must be quite capable!"

Rorschach was somewhat pleased that the five people behind him were suddenly mentioned by Fleet Admiral Sengoku, except for Ace, of course.

Luo Xia turned his head and glanced at the five people, then waved for them to stand over.

The five of them were very obedient and stood on either side of Rorschach.

Rorschach pointed at Ace and said, "His name is Kenshin, a Mythical Zoan type Flame Phoenix, a user of all three types of Haki, and Garp's apprentice."

Zhan Guo nodded, not particularly surprised, as he had heard of such a person before.

Rorschach then pointed to the other four and said, "These four guys used to be pirates, and then they joined the Navy."

"The names of the four are: Long Yi, Long Er, Long San, and Long Si."

Just as Luo Xia was about to continue, a burly, somewhat simple-minded man scratched his head and said, "Boss, we're not called Dragon One or Dragon Two, are we?"

"Nonsense, how could I possibly remember your complicated names?"

"From now on, that's what I'll call you. If you dare to say another word, come outside with me and we'll have a go."

The person who had just spoken immediately shut his mouth, lowered his head, and dared not speak again.

If Luo Xia really wanted to spar with him, he would be half-crippled even if he didn't die.

Apart from Ace, which of the other four people present hadn't experienced it?

"These four are all Mythical Zoan-type ability users: two Thunderbirds and two Fire Phoenixes."

Rorschach's explanation was remarkably simple, which greatly shocked the hearts of those in the Warring States.

"Is this the strongest marine in your G5 branch?" Sengoku asked.

"Well, I wouldn't say that!"

“Our G5 branch has over a hundred people with the same combat strength. There are countless mythical beasts, natural-type Devil Fruit users, and I think there are around a thousand.”

Gion added, "Marshal, our G5 branch has about 1,500 members."

"Among them, there are a thousand mythical beasts and natural-type ability users."

"As for the other five hundred people, Devil Fruits have not yet been assigned to them."

"Because this guy said he wanted to find some weird and wonderful Devil Fruits."

"Of course, there are also teams of ten people."

Gion stood behind, speechless. This woman had almost revealed all his secrets.

However, Sengoku became interested in what Gion had said about Sengoku, and asked with interest, "What kind of squads are there?"

"Well, let Rorschach speak!"

Gion immediately retreated to Garp's side.

Luo Xia was speechless. If they weren't still in the office, he would have definitely broken one of Zhiyuan's legs.

"Ahem, we have a bandit squad of ten men."

"puff……"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Sengoku, who had been drinking tea, suddenly spat it out.

Fortunately, Rorschach can turn water into ice, otherwise he would have been in serious trouble.

“We also have a robbery team of ten people.”

"And of course, there's my favorite treasure hunting team."

Rorschach grinned. "They always manage to dig up some treasure for me."

"There is also a shipbuilding team."

Rorschach rattled off the names of all the teams in one breath.

But Sengoku looked uneasy, and judging from their names, they were not serious squads.

Before Sengoku could speak, Rorschach interrupted, saying, "If my G5 branch were to come to Marine Headquarters, I feel that as long as the Admirals don't even have to lift a finger, I could wipe out Marine Headquarters."

When Sengoku heard what Luo Xia said, his face turned as black as charcoal.

Seeing Sengoku's expression, Luo Xia realized he might have said something wrong and quickly shut his mouth.

Zhan Guo glared at Luo Xia and then slowly said, "There are two things I wanted to tell you to come back this time."

"The first arrow is to ask you how many usable tools or Devil Fruits you still have."

"What? You're here to ask me for a Devil Fruit?" Rorschach asked in astonishment.

Sengoku nodded. "That's right. Our navy urgently needs to improve its combat power, so the fastest way is through Devil Fruits."

"Um, aren't you going to pay?"

Sengoku shook his head. "Of course we have to pay. We're very wealthy now, we can't just take your Devil Fruit for free."

"Alright, I have about a few hundred left. As long as you don't take them for free, it's fine with me."

After all, Luo Xia is neither short of money nor power.

Furthermore, the pirates at sea are very wealthy; they can easily earn hundreds of millions from a single robbery.

“And the second thing?” Rorschach asked.

Sengoku didn't speak, but instead stood up and came to Rorschach.

The Warring States period was marked by a serious expression, as if he were about to announce something.

"I hereby announce that Vice Admiral Rorschach is promoted to Admiral."

Rorschach's expression went from indifference at the beginning to astonishment at the end.

He never expected that the Warring States period would announce this.

Luo Xia took a step back, shaking his hands frantically, "Forget it...forget it!"

"I feel that my skills are still slightly lacking, and I need to hone them further!"

"Hmph, do you think I didn't investigate you before I made you a general?"

"Your strength might be far more than that of a general?"

The words spoken by the Warring States period were startling, but no one present was surprised.

At some point, Sengoku found himself holding a new naval overcoat. This cloak was different in color from the other admirals, especially the colors of the shoulders and cuffs.

The shoulders and cuffs were black, meaning this was prepared for Rorschach.

Rorschach merely glanced at the cloak and said, "I don't want to be a Marine Admiral yet, and I won't take orders from those scumbags!"

As he said this, Luo Xia's expression was one of extreme disgust.

Seeing Rorschach's expression, Sengoku immediately said, "How about this, if you defeat Fujitora, I won't let you be the one!"

"Fujitora?"

"Yes, these are naval admirals recruited through the global draft in the last two years."

"It's the one sitting on the sofa."

At this moment, a man dressed in a purple navy coat stood up and said, "Lord Seiryu, I am Fujitora!"

Rorschach nodded. "Fujitora? How many admirals does the Navy have now?"

"Four!"

"In order, they are Akainu, Kizaru, Fujitora, and Green Bull!"

"If you agree to become an admiral, then there will be five admirals on the high seas!"

Luo Xia frowned and asked, "Did Aokiji become a traitor?"

"Well, Aokiji submitted his resignation to the Marine Headquarters a year ago, so he should be somewhere at sea right now," Sengoku explained.

“I see. Once I find him, I’ll recruit him into my G5 branch. That will make robbing him much easier,” Luo Xia said excitedly.

In fact, Rorschach was planning to do just that.
