One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 220 Rorschach's Triumph

Upon hearing Smoker's words, Gion's lips curled into a confident smile.

She raised her hand towards a distant boulder, first releasing the power of the Barrier Fruit to form an encirclement to prevent the attack from spreading too far, and then gathering the power of the Glint Fruit in her palm, transforming it into a powerful beam of light that shot towards the boulder.

With a deafening roar, the boulder shattered into pieces, sending dust billowing high into the air. The onlookers were speechless with astonishment at the sheer power of the attack.

Rorschach jumped up excitedly, "This Fusion Fruit is simply invincible!"

Gion stopped, feeling the continuous power flowing through his body, and was very satisfied with this new ability.

However, Gion, who was in the midst of her joy, seemed to remember something. She slowly raised her palm and pointed it at the group of marines who had just mocked her.

When the marines saw that Gion had his palm facing them, they turned pale with fright and retreated hastily.

Some people have even transformed themselves into beasts in case they are actually blown up.

One of the slightly bolder marines stammered, "Big Sister Gion, we were wrong. We shouldn't have laughed at you."

Gion simply smiled and didn't actually launch an attack. She dissipated the energy in her hand and said, "I just wanted to tell you not to judge a book by its cover or underestimate someone's potential. This new ability is a warning to you today. If you do it again, I won't let you off so easily."

The marines breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement.

However, at this moment, Rorschach was rubbing his chin, seemingly recalling the attack that Gion had just launched.

"Although it looks impressive, it's just a giant rock."

Upon hearing Luo Xia's words, Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow. "What? Luo Xia has something on his mind?"

Luo Xia curled his lip, immediately rolled up his sleeves and stood up. Luo Xia said loudly, "I'd like to test your strength."

Everyone looked surprised.

Gion looked at him with interest. "Alright, let's go then."

Rorschach took a deep breath and instantly entered battle mode.

He flashed forward and rushed towards the garden, ice spikes forming in his hands.

Gion remained calm and once again used the power of the Barrier Fruit to defend himself.

Rorschach's ice spikes struck the barrier, sending up a spray of ice shards. Gion then retaliated, combining the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit with the barrier's power to create a dazzling shockwave.

Rorschach quickly created an ice wall to defend himself. The two exchanged blows, leaving the surrounding area in a state of utter chaos.

After several rounds, the two were calm and composed, showing no signs of fatigue whatsoever.

Luo Xia's eyes flickered when he saw Zhiyuan's behavior.

Rorschach's Conqueror's Haki surged, and Gion felt a powerful pressure.

But she was not afraid at all; instead, her eyes blazed with fighting spirit. She crossed her arms in front of her chest, and the powers of the Barrier Fruit and the Glint Fruit erupted simultaneously. A layer of golden light enveloped her entire body, resisting the invasion of Conqueror's Haki.

However, Rorschach's purpose was not to intimidate him with Conqueror's Haki.

Rorschach gathered his Conqueror's Haki into his right fist and instantly appeared in front of Gion, slamming his fist into Gion's shield.

Seeing this, Gion activated his shield with all his might. Although he didn't know if it could withstand the attack, he didn't want to be beaten to a pulp by Rorschach in front of so many people.

As time passed, Luo Xia withdrew his fist, and Gion, who had been supporting the shield, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Rorschach's punch only created a slight crack in the shield; it didn't break completely.

This surprised Gion immensely. He had thought he would be knocked away, or at least have his shield shattered, but he never expected it to end like this.

Gion waved his hand to dispel the shield and subconsciously asked, "You stinky Rorschach, you went easy on me, didn't you?"

Rorschach rolled his eyes. "I didn't hold back. The power of the Fusion Fruit that I invented is indeed very strong."

"Hmph, why don't you praise me?"

"That's because my fruit is stronger!"

"Hmph, I can't be bothered with you!"

At this moment, Garp stepped forward and said, "That kid really didn't hold back just now; his Fusion Fruit is indeed very strong."

"I'm truly surprised. I never imagined that the fusion of two Devil Fruits would be so powerful!" Garp exclaimed.

Hearing Garp praise him, Rorschach crossed his arms and said smugly, "Hahaha, as expected, the Devil Fruits I made are amazing. I'll make a few more for you all to try later!"

Upon hearing Luo Xia's words, everyone's faces lit up with anticipation.

Listening to the compliments from everyone, Luo Xia thought it was feasible more and more, and immediately created a large spatial cube to enclose an empty space.

Seeing Rorschach's actions, Garp asked, "Are you planning to make another one of those Devil Fruits?"

"That's right, it's precisely because I succeeded last time that I want to press my advantage."

"But I don't have any top-tier Devil Fruits anymore!"

"If only we could capture Akainu and Kizaru!"

Garp glared at Rorschach. "Don't mess around, kid. Those two aren't at headquarters right now."

Luo Xia pursed his lips, "I was just saying it offhand."

"We may not have Akainu or Kizaru here, but we have Smoker!"

Rorschach instantly appeared in front of Smoker and said with a grin, "Old Smoker, use your powers to attack me!"

Smoker frowned. "Rorschach, what are you up to now?"

Rorschach crossed his arms. "Stop talking nonsense and hurry up!"

Smoker had no choice but to use the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit to attack Rorschach.

Rorschach glowed, as if he were absorbing something.

After an unknown amount of time, Rorschach let out a long sigh of relief, then waved his hand, and dozens of Rumble-Rumble Fruits appeared in front of everyone.

Upon seeing this, Aokiji's lips twitched violently, and he blurted out subconsciously, "Your ability is really freakish, this is too outrageous!" Aokiji's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

Luo Xia smiled smugly, "Hahaha, what can I do? I'm a synthesizer!"

Kuzan continued, "If I had known you could do this, I should have come here a long time ago."

"Oh? Where did you want to go before that?"

Kuzan gave a wry smile. "I wanted to investigate the secrets of the Devil Fruit with Blackbeard, and also investigate him, but I think I don't need to now."

Luo Xia waved his hand, "No need, you can just ask me if you want to know anything."

"I am definitely the person who knows Devil Fruits the most in this world!"

Compared to the composure of some generals like Rorschach, the marines were all shocked when they saw the pile of Rumble-Rumble Fruits.

Although they had seen it countless times, they still thought their boss was amazing, amazing in every way.
