General Lanlin of One Piece

Chapter 620 What? Did you catch them all?
When Rorschach grabbed the black beard who was as unconscious as a dead dog and found Ace, he was sitting quietly on a raised hill on the edge of Tasan Island, quietly staring at the broken earth in the basin ahead.

The ground in the basin was scorched black, and there were traces of fire everywhere.

A large amount of black charcoal was splashed in every corner of the basin like ink, which was the burned-out fragments of the wooden house that had been burned by the fire.

Originally, there was a small town with a population of thousands in this place called Tasang Town.

When the Blackbeard Pirates landed, they killed dozens of unarmed civilians to vent their anger, causing panic in the town.

But on Tasan Island, surrounded by the sea, the villagers in the town have nowhere to escape and can only live in panic and grief.

Then there is no more then.

The aftermath of the battle between Ace and Blackbeard completely destroyed the entire town of Tasan. None of the villagers inside could escape. Even the corpses were torn to pieces by the violent suction force and burned by thousands of degrees of heat. The flames burned into nothingness.

When Rorschach arrived, he found that except for Blackbeard and Ace, there was no one else on the island.

This is the tragedy of the weak and ordinary people.

Warring States was so angry that he almost had a myocardial infarction.

"Snacks? Where can I get some?" Luo Xia licked her lips and touched her belly, "I woke up early in the morning and flew thousands of miles in such a hurry. I'm really a little hungry."

He regretted what he said to Rorschach from the bottom of his heart yesterday.

And here, just the destruction caused by the level of battle between Blackbeard and Ace spread to the entire island, killing thousands of people.

Fortunately, Xiaohe also said that this kid has grown up and become calm.

Rorschach nodded.

If this can be called calm, then Warring States feels that he may not be able to survive as marshal until he abdicates.

He glanced at the black beard caught in Rorschach's hand, and said in a hoarse voice: "I never regret the choices I made, no matter... which choice I made."

"Thank you."

In this way, there is still room for relaxation in the matter of Blackbeard's arrest...

Fortunately, Rorschach finally knew how to restrain himself and did not directly kill Blackbeard.

Because he would be pissed to death by Rorschach.

Tears fell from his face and shattered on the ground beneath him.

It wasn't until a few footsteps sounded behind him that he woke up from his chaotic thinking.

"Answer? What answer?" Ace was a little confused.

"So did you find the answer you were looking for?"

Ace's body trembled and he slowly raised his head.

"The meaning of life."

He watched Rorschach throw the two people he was holding into the room like trash, clapped his hands, turned to look at himself and said with a smile: "Perfectly completed the task, old man. You can rest assured, Tasang." There is absolutely no possibility of leaking what happened on the island.”

"Let's go back to Malinfando. There, there is a painful old man waiting for you."

He cried.

Rorschach glanced at Ace who looked lonely.

"You bastard! What are you doing? Why did you capture Blackbeard? Because he captured Ace, we have recognized the identity of the Qibukai! The Qibukai eats the rice of the Han family and follows you all day long. If I can’t get through, can you please save me some trouble?”

A few hours later, in the secret room of Malinfando's underground laboratory.

It can be imagined from this that when Whitebeard, known as the strongest man in the world, uses his earthquake fruit ability to fight, causing sea earthquakes, air earthquakes, and huge tsunamis, how many people will be swallowed by the sea water.

But seeing that Blackbeard was still alive, Warring States finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Ace was silent, with deep guilt emerging from the depths of his eyes.

"Tick, tick..."

Rorschach's plain voice stunned Ace.

Warring States looked on in confusion, Ace and Blackbeard being held in Rorschach's hands left and right, unable to recover from their messy thoughts for a long time.

Then his head dropped and his shoulders began to shake.

"Do you regret it?"

Luo Xia watched quietly without saying a word.

Their fragile lives cannot even withstand the aftermath of the confrontation between strong men.

"Huh? You...you were all arrested?"

He whispered in a hoarse voice.

"No, you know, I hate the Shichibukai system." Rorschach shook his head, grabbed him and Blackbeard and flew into the sky, quickly disappearing on Tasan Island.

After a long while, he reached out his hand and grabbed Ace's shoulder.

"Stop interrupting me!!"

"Where are the other members of the Blackbeard Pirates?" Sengoku asked Rorschach, ignoring the equally confused Aoji and Garp who appeared beside him.

Warring States' face was covered with black lines, and his back molars were almost broken. His presbyopic eyes behind his round glasses were as wide as bull's eyes, and he couldn't help but open his mouth and roar at Rorschach.

"Old man, I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, it will be fine!"

A smile of complete control appeared on Rorschach's face.

Warring States breathed a sigh of relief.

"fine……"

"They are all dead. I electrocuted them into cokes. No one will leak the news about Fire Fist Ace's arrest! The two parties who finally knew the situation are here. The subsequent confidentiality work will be done by our navy. It’s a side matter.”

Luo Xia's words silenced Sengoku, Garp, and Aokiji.

Warring States trembled all over, suddenly screamed strangely, raised his fist and punched Luo Xia.

"You bastard! Are you worried about this? Are you going to piss me off?"

Garp was awakened by his shouting, and a smile finally appeared on his sad old face.

He quickly stepped forward and hugged Warring States, and advised loudly: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, Warring States, Luo Xia did the right thing. Now the news is completely blocked, and all the preparations we make in the future can be made quietly." The sound goes on without attracting anyone’s attention.”

"You're still doing the right thing?!"

Warring States roared angrily, spitting on Garp's face: "This bastard arrested Blackbeard, who I just reported to the Five Old Stars and agreed to be appointed as the new Shichibukai! He also killed all his men! This There's no room for relaxation anymore, how the hell am I going to explain this to Wulaoxing?"

"Well, I think it's okay, old man, you can tell them that Blackbeard's dream is to become the next Rocks. For this reason, he even named his bad ship after the Sword of Jibek. Oh, by the way, this guy He is a person with the ability of the Dark Fruit."

Rorschach said pointing at Blackbeard lying on the ground like a dead dog.

"Rocks? Dark fruit ability?"

There was a sudden silence in the laboratory, Sengoku's roaring voice instantly muted, and Garp let go of him. Both of them focused on Blackbeard, who rolled his eyes.

Garp stepped forward and kicked Blackbeard in the stomach.

With a loud bang, he kicked the unconscious Blackbeard more than ten meters away, hit the wall of the room heavily, and then fell to the ground.

"It turns out to be the Dark Fruit. No wonder it can defeat Ace."

He turned to look at Rorschach, a grateful smile on his old face.

"Rorschach, thank you. You caught this bastard and finally made me feel angry. Treacherous guys, whether they are navy or pirates, are intolerable. Warring States period..."

He looked at Sengoku again and said, "Rorschach is right. This kind of person is not suitable to become a Shichibukai. If he can betray Whitebeard, maybe he can use his identity as a Shichibukai to create trouble for our navy next time."

Warring States didn't say anything, obviously still angry.

Seeing this, Luo Xia quickly added a few words in a low voice.

"Oh, by the way, I tortured Blackbeard, and he confessed his purpose of becoming a Shichibukai."

"Oh? What's the purpose?"

Luo Xia's words made the three Warring States people in the laboratory all look at him.

Rorschach glanced at the tense black beard and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"The reason why he took the initiative and took the risk to let his capable generals come to Malinfando to recommend themselves is because he wanted to get the name of the Shichibukai, and then use the identity of the Shichibukai to enter and exit Impel Down City to release the infinite hell. criminals, and take those criminals as their subordinates.”

"what?"

Warring States was shocked and looked at Luo Xia in disbelief, "Are you telling the truth?"

"It's absolutely true, this guy said it himself."

Rorschach pointed at the black beard lying on the ground.

Blackbeard's body lying in the corner trembled slightly.

"Damn guy! Look, what did I just say? How can a guy like this, who can even betray Whitebeard, who has protected him for decades, have any good intentions? He actually wants to release the gang in the infinite hell. Criminal, this is simply audacious!”

Garp rolled up his sleeves and clenched his fists loudly.

"And..." Rorschach continued.

"besides?"

Sengoku and Garp, who were immersed in shock, looked at Rorschach in astonishment.

Blackbeard, who was lying on the ground, held his breath.

Ace sat quietly leaning against the wall, looking at Rorschach in astonishment.

If he remembered correctly, Rorschach did not seem to have done anything to torture Blackbeard on Tasan Island...

Rorschach nodded and said with certainty: "Yes, in addition to wanting to take away a group of powerful prisoners in Impel Down City, Blackbeard also wants to take advantage of our navy's next actions to participate in the war as a Shichibukai, and in During the war, he attacked Whitebeard and seized the power of the Shock Fruit from Whitebeard..."

"Capture Whitebeard's power? Rorschach, what do you mean?"

Warring States interrupted Luo Xia's words and asked with a frown.

"That's what it means."

Rorschach pointed at Blackbeard with a confused look on his face and said in confusion:
“This guy admits that his body structure is abnormal, and he can contain two or even three devil fruit abilities in one person.

His Darkness Fruit ability should have the effect of depriving the dead of their abilities.

He wanted to use this ability to help himself and his subordinates in the future to capture those powerful Devil Fruit abilities.

And if his plan succeeds, he will become the world's strongest pirate who combines the natural Dark Fruit ability and the Superhuman Shock Fruit ability.

Even more than that, he may also be able to capture the third ability, and the target may be the animal type among the three types of devil fruits. "

He pointed at himself and said: "Either it's the Kirin Fruit on my body, or the Blue Dragon Fruit on Kaido's body, or some other hidden, particularly powerful animal-type fantasy beast ability."

After Rorschach finished speaking, there was dead silence in the laboratory.

After a long time, the sound of chains suddenly sounded in the room.

Ace, who was sitting in the corner, his eyes turned red instantly. He roared and suddenly jumped towards Blackbeard beside him. He reached out and grabbed Blackbeard's neck. He used the seastone handcuffs in his hand to fight towards Blackbeard desperately. Bearded face smashed.

"Tich!! You beast! It turns out that you have this purpose! Beast! Dad has sheltered you for decades. It wasn't enough for you to kill Thatch and steal a Devil Fruit. Actually... you actually wanted to murder him. Dad! You beast! I’m going to kill you!”

Blackbeard was completely in a state of confusion.

He completely understood what came out of Rorschach's mouth.

But the question is, when had I been tortured by that guy?
Moreover, when had I even revealed the deepest and most secret secrets hidden in my heart to Lieutenant General Lan Lin?

Even Lafitte, Fanoka and the others don’t know these secrets of their own!
How did Rorschach know?
What happened during the time when I was unconscious?
His thoughts were so chaotic that he even endured Ace's crazy beatings without resisting.

"Stop him!" Only then did Warring States react and was about to step forward and pull away the furious Ace.

"let me!"

Garp rushed over first and kicked Blackbeard in the face, sending him spinning five or six times in the air and flying to another corner of the room, letting out a painful wail.

Ace, on the other hand, was held down by Garp's shoulders and pinned to the ground.

"Grandpa! Let me go! Let me go! Let me kill him! Let me kill this unfaithful, unfilial and unjust beast!"

Ace roared hoarsely with red eyes.

Hearing the word "grandpa" from Ace's mouth, Garp, who was holding his shoulders, trembled and his eyes instantly turned red.

He put his hand on Ace's head and touched it hard like he did many years ago.

"Ace...I'm sorry, grandpa didn't protect you..."

Ace's struggling body paused, and he slowly raised his head. Looking at Garp's old face full of wrinkles and tear stains, tears instantly burst out of his eyes.

He raised his hands to cover his face, tears falling from between his fingers.

"No, grandpa, it's my own fault. I don't blame you. It's me who failed to live up to your high expectations..."

Luo Xia stepped forward and grabbed Blackbeard, walked out of the room, and signaled to Warring States and Qing Pheasant: "Let's go out and let them talk."

Warring States sighed softly, glanced at Garp's rickety back, shook his head, turned around and walked out.

Qingzhi walked up to Luo Xia, reached out and patted Luo Xia on the shoulder, and said softly: "Thank you, Luo Xia. This way, Lieutenant General Garp may feel better."

Rorschach shook his head slightly and smiled softly.

"You're welcome, Uncle Kuzan, you know I hate the Shichibukai system."

Warring States, who was walking in front, paused and shouted in a low voice without looking back: "Enough is enough, kid, Blackbeard is already giving me a headache. Over at Tezzoro, you must not touch him. There is still something on his head. He has the title of king of the franchising countries, and he is loved by many Celestial Dragons in the Holy Land."

"Don't worry, he's not a pirate, he's just a black-hearted businessman at most. Why should I touch him?"
