One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 162 Encounter with Zoro and Sanji

You mean that one?

"That trick only works on small fry; it's useless against someone like you!" Luo Xia said nonchalantly.

After hearing Rorschach's explanation, Gion also gained a certain understanding of Rorschach's move.

"Hmph, I bet you wouldn't dare!"

As the group continued walking, one of the marines next to Rorschach suddenly said, "Boss, now that we've captured two members of the Straw Hat crew, should we hand them over to the Marine branch here?"

"If you say another word, I'll throw you into the sea to feed the fish!"

Although Luo Xia speaks very softly, after spending two years with him, I've found that this kind of gentle yet icy tone is often the most terrifying.

The four of them were so frightened that they immediately shut their mouths, their hearts pounding in their chests.

Nami and Usopp, who were walking at the front, originally thought they would be handed over to the Marines, but this guy actually said that.

Nami and Usopp had no idea why this was happening.

Nami said dejectedly, "It's all over, it's all over. Usopp didn't expect to be captured so soon after arriving in Sabaody Archipelago. This is terrible."

"Are we going to be sent to a naval prison?"

"I was planning to buy some clothes, but now I'm doomed."

"There should still be some money I've worked so hard to save on the ship, and now it's all gone."

Even Rorschach couldn't stand Nami's incessant chatter.

"Hey, you little thief, shut your mouth, you're making so much noise!"

"Hmph, since you've already arrested me, what? Doesn't the Navy allow people to speak?"

It's rare for Nami to stand up for herself, especially since she's been captured; she can't afford to be stubborn.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Gion approached Rorschach and asked, "Are you really planning to hand the Straw Hat crew over to the Marshal?"

"I haven't decided yet; it depends on the old man's opinion."

"But now it seems that the old man is not so heartless."

"Perhaps seeing a straw hat would change that."

Time flies, two hours later...

At this moment, Rorschach was walking in front, holding the hands of Nami and Usopp, who both looked unhappy.

If Sanji saw this scene, he would probably go berserk on the spot.

“This noisy sound is definitely the place where the Straw Hat crew recruits members,” Gion said.

No one spoke; instead, they quickened their pace.

Soon they came to a flat meadow, where they saw only two people, and it seemed that the two did not get along well.

Rorschach led Nami and the other woman by the hand, the sound of the chains ringing out crisply.

Rorschach grinned. "Hey, found two more."

Upon hearing that two more had been found, everyone turned to look ahead.

"Don't make a move, I don't intend to arrest these two!"

As time went on, Rorschach was less than fifty meters away from Zoro and Sanji.

Perhaps they heard the clanging sound of the chains, or perhaps it was their own Observation Haki.

The two were arguing one second, but the next second they both turned to look in Luo Xia's direction.

"Hey, hey, hey, what's this guy doing here?"

"And... Miss Nami is actually in his hands?"

Sanji's face was gloomy, and he didn't even realize when the cigarette in his mouth had fallen out.

Nami and Usopp, who were walking towards this direction, saw a familiar figure, and tears instantly streamed down their faces.

Nami, who had been speaking with such a strong voice, now looked pitiful, and tears streamed down her face.

"Waaaaah, Zoro, Sanji, help me!"

"Help! Zoro and Sanji!"

The two shouted in unison, as if afraid the other person hadn't heard them.

Upon hearing Nami and Usopp's voices, the two men's expressions grew increasingly gloomy.

The two slowly took a step forward. Sanji took a deep breath, and the smell of cigarettes cleared his mind once again.

Zoro pulled out a headscarf from somewhere, tied it up, and looked very serious.

Luo Xia, who was walking slowly, stopped five meters away from the two of them.

Rorschach's gaze swept back and forth between the two, a faint smile always playing on his lips.

Zoro, his face grim, said, "The Navy? You actually captured Nami and Usopp?"

"That's right, they actually captured my beloved Nami. Then we must be prepared to die."

Hearing their words, Nami and Usopp, who had been captured, were moved to tears.

"Waaaaah, Zoro, Sanji..."

After handing Nami and Usopp over to Gion, Rorschach took a step forward and instantly drew his Shura sword from his waist.

In the blink of an eye, an invisible killing intent spread through the air.

"Actually, arresting them was not my intention."

Rorschach pointed at Ace and said, "It was my men who wanted to fight your captain, so we had no choice but to capture them both."

"After all, Garp is your captain's grandson, so I have to give him face!"

Rorschach almost believed what he said, but there was a reason for it.

"If you two want to fight, I'm fine with that too."

Instantly, Luo Xia's originally fair arms were covered with a layer of red and black garish color.

At the same time, the Shura in his hand was frantically absorbing Luo Xia's Conqueror's Haki, and the aura of the Shura's blade was getting stronger and stronger.

Zoro and Sanji stared at the knife in Rorschach's hand, completely dumbfounded.

Zoro, in particular, as a swordsman, clearly felt the power contained within this sword.

This strike was in no way inferior to Mihawk's, and could even be said to have surpassed Mihawk's.

Zoro instinctively took a step back, the cold sweat on his forehead a testament to his panicked state of mind.

Luo Xia, who was holding the Shura sword, frowned slightly. He felt as if the sword had absorbed most of his Conqueror's Haki.

Luo Xia's lips twitched, and he quickly sheathed his sword.

The Conqueror's Haki that was just absorbed by the sword will remain stored in the sword as long as it is not used.

I learned this with Garp's help.

I remember it was a bright and sunny morning. The day before, Luo Xia had deliberately let Shura absorb most of his domineering aura.

The next day, wanting to test if the Haki would disappear, he even went to find Garp.

As soon as he unleashed his sword, the massive red light and unstoppable momentum nearly injured Garp.

This is one of the reasons why Garp is so lucky; otherwise, that day would have been Garp's death anniversary.

This experience also taught Rorschach another characteristic of the knife; overall, it was still quite useful.

The immense pressure disappeared, and Sanji and Zoro straightened themselves up, though their eyes remained wary.

What do you want to do?

Rorschach glanced at the two of them and asked, "Do you know where the straw hat is?"

"The old man needs to speak with him!"

Rorschach even pointed at Garp.

The two were originally going to fight, but after looking at Garp's innocent face, they didn't make a move.

Even if they were to fight, the two of them in their current state would be no match for Luo Xia.
