One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 63 Two People Riding Bicycles on the Sea

With a wave of his hand, Rorschach's object vanished instantly, leaving the assembled marines wide-eyed in shock.

Luo Xia turned to Aokiji and asked, "Now, what do we do?"

Aokiji pointed to the bicycle next to him, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Rorschach's lips twitched, but Aokiji was already riding his bicycle on the sea.

Rorschach reluctantly got on his bicycle and followed closely behind.

As the two rode their bicycles across the sea, the navy in the port exclaimed in surprise again, and other navy personnel inquired about Rorschach's identity.

"Wait, who is that person? He can ride a bicycle on the sea just like Admiral Aokiji, that's amazing!"

"You didn't know that? This guy was the number one in the Zephyr training program!"

A nearby navy officer added, "It's Rorschach, who was promoted to commodore during his graduation assessment!"

"Moreover, I heard that he is a user of the Synthesis Fruit and has provided the Navy with many amazing gadgets."

"As for why he possessed the abilities of Admiral Aokiji, the accounts passed down are not entirely accurate!"

Rorschach had no idea that his displayed abilities would be the subject of so much discussion among the Navy, but he neither heard nor cared about it.

At this very moment, Luo Xia was riding his bicycle alongside Aokiji, huffing and puffing.

Moreover, just now, Luo Xia almost fell into the sea because he hadn't ridden a bicycle for a long time. Fortunately, Luo Xia reacted quickly and froze the sea surface where he was about to fall, thus preventing him from falling into the sea.

"Oh my, I didn't expect you, Rorschach, to be unable to ride a bicycle. You'll have to practice more!"

Rorschach scoffed, "Who would ride a bicycle on the sea for no reason?"

"Perhaps only those with freezing abilities can do this?"

"Oh dear, isn't this also a unique experience that helps you relax?"

"So, where are we going now? Don't tell me you're just riding around without any plans, are you?" Rorschach said.

"Oh dear, the Navy intelligence department has confirmed the whereabouts of the Straw Hat Pirates."

"For now, all we need to do is keep riding in this direction until we reach Mogu Town, where we can find the Straw Hat Pirates."

"Because the next island the log pointer points to in Alabasta is Mogu Town."

Rorschach nodded, then rode his bicycle alongside Aokiji.

At this moment, Rorschach was recalling the Straw Hat crew's journey in his previous life.

After some thought, Rorschach finally made his decision.

The Straw Hat crew was right when they told Aokiji, but they had to do it before the Straw Hat crew entered Skypiea, otherwise it would be a no-go.

And it seems there will be a major battle in Mogu Town, I wonder if I'll be able to make it in time.

……

Time passed quickly, and about four days later, Rorschach and Aokiji leisurely sailed across the sea.

At this moment, some of the pirates in Mogu Town were looking into the distance with binoculars, while others were discussing among themselves.

"Hey, you bastards, look at those two guys on the sea, they look like they're riding bicycles!"

"Damn it, what are you talking about? How could someone possibly ride a bicycle across the sea?"

"You bastard, you want to fight? I said I'd fight, so I'll fight. See for yourself if you don't believe me!"

As Luo Xia and his companion continued their journey, they arrived at Mogu Town.

The two had already taken off their naval uniforms and changed into their usual clothes.

Aokiji was dressed in all black, with black-rimmed glasses on his face, and his expression remained extremely indifferent.

Rorschach simply took off his navy cloak.

As soon as the two brought the bicycles ashore, Luo Xia waved his hand, and the two bicycles were put into the system space.

The movements were incredibly smooth; it was clear that Rorschach had done it dozens of times.

As soon as the two arrived on the island, several fierce-looking pirates approached them and asked, "Um, you two, did you all ride bicycles from the sea?"

Luo Xia glanced at the four pirates in front of him with strange expressions, pointed at Aokiji's face, and said, "Haven't you seen my boss's face before?"

After Rorschach's prompting, the pirates finally looked at Aokiji's face.

This sight nearly scared them out of their wits, and some even scrambled back to the distant tavern.

Aokiji frowned slightly, and his hands revealed ice, instantly freezing the three pirates in front of him who were already terrified.

Luo Xia tapped the three people in front of him, who were frozen into ice sculptures, and said gloatingly, "Idiots! I told you everything, why aren't you running? What are you waiting for?"

At this moment, Aokiji, with a cold expression, said, "Let's go, let's go to the tavern and ask around!"

"Although the drinks at the tavern aren't very good, Gion said that every tavern is an intelligence gathering place!"

Meanwhile, the pirate who had just climbed back into the tavern shouted inside, "Admiral Aokiji is here!!!"

As soon as the pirate spoke, the once lively and noisy tavern fell silent.

It was so quiet that the only sound was swallowing saliva.

A timid pirate cautiously inquired, "Are you lying? How could Admiral Aokiji possibly come to our Demon Valley Town?"

Just as the pirate was about to confirm that it was true, Rorschach and Aokiji appeared outside the door in the next second.

As the tavern door creaked open, all the pirates inside saw the two men's faces.

At this moment, everyone's mouths were agape, their eyes bulging, looking utterly shocked.

Aokiji walked straight to the bar with a cold expression. The pirates along the way would make way for him without him having to say a word.

They appeared extremely respectful.

This also deepened Rorschach's fear of the Marine Admirals among the pirates.

You can tell from their eyes.

As soon as Luo Xia and his companion sat down, Aokiji's extremely cold voice rang out, "If anyone dares to leave this tavern, I guarantee you will die a horrible death!"

In an instant, the pirate who had been trying to sneak out immediately pulled his leg back.

Everyone swallowed hard in unison.

"Two glasses of rum, boss!"

"Yes...yes, Navy Captain!"

The shop owner, feeling extremely uneasy, poured Luo Xia and his companion a full glass of rum.

Luo Xia, perhaps sensing his boss's nervousness, smiled and reassured him, "Boss, don't be nervous. You're not a wanted criminal anyway."

"Good... good!"

After taking a sip of rum, Aokiji slowly asked, "Boss, has any Straw Hat Pirates come here recently?"

"Straw hat? Straw Hat Boy?"

Rorschach nodded.

"By the way, two days ago, the Straw Hat crew was swept into the sky by a towering ocean current, but we don't know if they came down!"

Perhaps it was because the pressure from the navy was too great that the shop owner suddenly remembered it.

Luo Xia clenched his fist as if he had thought of something, and then said, "Could it be that their group really went to the Sky Island?"

Rorschach wasn't surprised at all that the Straw Hat crew went to Skypiea.

P.S.: To be honest, I haven't dared to read the comments these past two days, afraid of getting scolded, hahaha.

I can only look very carefully! (?¤?????¤??????)?
