General Lanlin of One Piece

Chapter 837 You're Going to Die, Rorschach

Above the blood-stained sea of ​​Elbaf, Rorschach appeared with Skylark as if teleporting.

The moment he saw Rorschach, Lucci's face looked as if he had seen a ghost, his eyes widened, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Rorschach, you're not dead?"

Rorschach didn't respond, but just glanced at him slightly sideways.

With just one look, Lucci, who was covered in black flames, lost the awakening state of the Cat-Cat Fruit. His eyes rolled back and he fell from the air, splashing into the sea.

"Lucci!" Kaku was startled and quickly jumped down to rescue him.

Rorschach knew the purpose of Lucci's coming here after a little thought, and the reason why he didn't kill him was just because he had just made some effort to stop Shanks. Otherwise, he would have disappeared from this world like Shanks, with no body left.

In the air not far away, Stussy, with a pair of bat wings spread out behind him, looked at Rorschach's back from afar, his eyes lost in thought.

Rorschach ignored her for the moment, opened his arms towards the deep sea in front of him, and made a motion of pulling them apart.

The next moment, under the shocked gazes of Stussy, Kaku, and the giants on the shore, billions of tons of sea water in the sea in front of Rorschach roared and separated to both sides. The ten thousand meter deep sea seemed to be cut in half by a knife, torn apart by an invisible force, revealing the seabed at the bottom.

Rorschach's expression remained calm. He grabbed Kirin, Bepo, and Palmer, who had sunk to the bottom of the sea, through the air. They were immediately wrapped in an air cover and flew out from the bottom of the sea, arriving in front of Rorschach and Skylark.

"Bepo! Kirin! Palmer!"

Seeing the horrific injuries on the three people, Yun Que's eyes instantly became moist and he rushed over to check on the condition of the three people.

Among the three, Kirin was hit by Shanks' sword, and his small body was almost cut in half. If it weren't for his two talents of Rorschach's steel bones and Big Mom's steel balloon, he would probably have died by now.

Palmer's strong body was covered with wounds so deep that the bones could be seen. There was even a horizontal tear in his abdomen that cut open his abdominal cavity and exposed his intestines that looked like knots.

The one who was most seriously injured was Bepo. He had now regained his human form, but his body had been split into two. The lower body below the waist was cut off by Shanks in the previous battle.

All three of them fell into a life-threatening state of coma and shock, and their life force was like a candle in the wind, ready to go out at any time.

"Brother Rorschach, what should we do? What should we do?" Looking at the three people who were seriously injured and rapidly heading towards death, Yunque looked at Rorschach anxiously.

"Don't worry, they won't die as long as I'm here."

Rorschach's voice was still calm and peaceful. There was no anger or anxiety on his face, and even his eyes did not fluctuate much, seeming a little cold, which made Yun Que feel a little strange for the first time.

She watched Luo Xia walk towards her in mid-air and open his right hand towards the three Qilin people who were held up by the air and had lost severe blood.

Strands of silver arcs burst out from Rorschach's palm, instantly covering the space in front of him with a diameter of one hundred meters. Qilin and the other two were enveloped in the dense electric light.

A large amount of electric current was pumped into their bodies, as if they were being charged, and it was super fast charging at that.

According to the observation Haki of Yun Que and Stussy, the life breath of Qilin and the other two, who had extremely weak life breath and could die at any time a second ago, now continued to surge and rise, becoming full of vitality and extremely vigorous.

Immediately afterwards, countless granulation blood vessels rapidly grew on the horrific wounds on the three people, healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even Bebo, whose body was broken into two halves, was held together by the air currents, with muscles regenerating at the wounds, bones connecting, nerves joining, and blood vessels growing.

However, in just a dozen seconds, Bepo's body recovered as before, as if he had never experienced the previous beheading. There was no visible injury on his waist, and even the white hair on his body had grown out, looking snow-white and fluffy, full of vitality.

"Does General Lan Lin have such a powerful ability to heal others? Why was there no mention of it in past intelligence?" Looking at the three Kirin people who recovered from a life-threatening state in just a dozen seconds, and whose vitality even became stronger than before, Kaku's heart was filled with shock.

Not to mention him, even Skylark, who was most familiar with Rorschach, couldn't help but widen his eyes, feeling both surprised and shocked.

Rorschach pointed a finger, and several arcs of electricity struck the three unconscious Qilin people. The three of them trembled, and immediately woke up and opened their eyes.

The moment they woke up, the three of them looked at their intact bodies and felt the vigorous energy in their bodies, and they couldn't help but be stunned. But soon, they saw a familiar figure standing in front of them.

"General Rorschach!"

"Dad!"

"general!"

The three of them exclaimed almost at the same time, their voices filled with surprise.

Bepo and Palmer even cried with joy, while Qilin jumped over happily, hung on Rorschach, and hugged Rorschach's neck tightly.

"General Rorschach, I knew it, I knew you wouldn't die." Bepo cried loudly, wiping his tears.

Palmer was very excited. He stood straight and looked at Rorschach with eyes full of admiration and respect.

Facing the three excited people, Rorschach remained calm, nodded, and then waved his hand. The bioelectric current in front of him spread out and connected to Stussy, Kaku, and even Lucci in the distance without rejection.

In the blink of an eye, the injuries of the three people were all healed.

Stussy's vitality became even more vigorous, her pretty face looked radiant, her facial skin became moist and smooth, and her complexion was much better than before.

But Stussy suddenly felt a sense of loss. She found that the shadow of Rorschach, which had filled her mind not long ago, suddenly disappeared. Her admiration and affection for Rorschach also faded a lot. It was as if all of a sudden, Rorschach's importance in her heart changed from a one-sided lover to an ordinary passerby.

If it were the current Stussy, and she encountered the same situation as before, she might not have taken decisive action to intercept Shanks and help Hibari and the others.

After doing all this, Luo Xia casually made a move towards the Qilin in the distance. The Qilin flew up from the sea without wind, flew towards this side and caught them.

Then he pointed at the black official ship that Lucci and the others were on, and the next moment, a thick lightning column fell from the sky, blasting the ship into ashes, without even a piece of wood dust. The CP agents who were still on the ship and followed Lucci also disappeared. Among them were even two former CP9 members, Lucci's companions, Gabra and Ugetori.

"No!" Lucci looked at the ship without any trace left with bloodshot eyes and shouted in grief and anger.

Rorschach ignored the angry Lucci and Kaku, and landed directly on the deck of the Kirin, maneuvering the ship back to Elbaf Island.

Seeing him descend from the sky on the Kirin, the Elbaf giant guards standing on the shore held their weapons nervously, their faces full of fear. Some giant children standing in front of the tavern looked at Rorschach with shock, curiosity, envy, and awe.

The scene where Rorschach parted the sea with a wave of his hand was so shocking.

"Brother Rorschach, aren't we going back to G5 now?" Hibari looked at Rorschach. She wanted to tell Rorschach about how Enel had acted on his own initiative and killed Green Bull with the Pluto battleship, but looking at Rorschach's expression, it seemed that there was something else he needed to do, so she had to suppress her urgency.

Rorschach said calmly: "I have something to do, you wait here."

"Oh." Yun Que nodded and watched Rorschach fly away, a hint of worry in his eyes.

She found that her feeling just now was not an illusion. Rorschach seemed to have really become much colder. In the past, he gave people the impression of a warm and friendly boy next door, but now, he had a kind of coldness that kept people at a distance.

This feeling was very familiar, and Yun Que immediately thought of the coldness and indifference that Enel showed in the world of Gege.

But it is understandable that Eneel would become so cold and heartless, because when he was on Sky Island in the past, he was already aloof and contemptuous of all living beings.

But why did Rorschach undergo such a big change?

"I hope...it's just my illusion."

In the village in the center of Elbaf Island, Rorschach's reappearance made the giants, who were helping each other to get up, feel as if they were facing a great enemy, and they stared at him in panic.

Donli and Broki gritted their teeth, gripped their weapons tightly, and glared at Rorschach.

They already knew that Beckman and Luffy were killed by Rorschach. Lakiru, Jesus Bu, Marco and others also died at the hands of the navy. Now Rorschach has killed Shanks and weakened their compatriots.

Rorschach killed their friend in Elbaf and the sun god predicted by fate. In their eyes, he was an unforgivable enemy. A few years ago, when they were in the small garden, they were grateful to Rorschach because of the things that happened to Oimo and Cassie. They didn't expect that things would develop to this point after so many years.

"Lan Lin! You..." Dong Li was unable to suppress the anger rising in his heart. He strode over with the sword in hand, and was about to reprimand Luo Xia for his atrocities.

But he had only taken two steps towards Rorschach when his huge body, as big as a mountain, collapsed to the ground with a bang, and the greatsword in his hand fell off and dropped to the side.

"Donli! What's wrong with you?" Broki, who was following closely beside him, was shocked. Just as he was about to step forward to check on his old friend's injuries, his eyes went blank for a moment, the world was spinning in front of him, and the image of Elbaf in his sight suddenly darkened. He fell to the ground with Donli.

Strands of silver electric light detached from the bodies of the two men, drawing brilliant trails in the air and sinking into the body of the expressionless Rorschach.

As these tiny flashes of lightning left, the life force of Dongli and Brocki, who were lying on the ground, plummeted. In an instant, their breath stopped and they died silently.

Not far away, Hailding, who was lying on the ground, opened his eyes wide, unable to believe his eyes.

"Captain Dongli! Captain Brocky!"

"Two leaders!"

"Beast! Kill him! He is a devil, he killed two leaders!"

Although the giants were still weak, they were very excited at this moment. Because of the deaths of Dongli and Broki, they all roared in anger.

Rorschach turned a blind eye and moved his gaze away from the fallen Donny and Brocky to a figure in the distance who was sneaking away at a high speed.

He said in a cold voice: "Come here."

When Loki, who was running away, heard the voice, his skinny body suddenly trembled and he shivered. He wanted to speed up his escape, but the fear in his heart made him stop involuntarily. He stood there stiffly, forcing a smile that was uglier than crying. He slowly turned around and looked at Rorschach.

"You...what do you want to do? Do you really want to kill us all? We can talk it out! I am the king of the giants. I can represent all the giants and form an alliance with your navy and the World Government. I can make Elbaf a member of the World Government. Hasn't your navy always wanted to get manpower from our giants? I can promise to let the giants of Elbaf join your navy..."

Loki seemed to have not seen the dead Donli and Broki at all, nor did he hear the angry shouts of the giants around him. He just spoke quickly to himself and looked at Rorschach with pleading eyes.

No one knew how intense the fear that was surging in his heart was at this moment. In Loki's eyes, the power displayed by Rorschach was no different from that of a god.

In the face of such unparalleled power, the Soul-Soul Fruit, domineering aura, and the physique of the giants are all shit.

Even someone as strong as Red-Haired Shanks was beaten to pieces by a single punch from the man in front of him whose eyes were as cold as iron.

The devouring force he felt earlier that penetrated deep into his soul made him think that he was being dragged into hell by the hands of countless evil spirits. That feeling was a hundred times and a thousand times more terrifying than death.

However, in the face of Loki's almost pleading pleas, Rorschach remained indifferent.

He first glanced at the giants around him who were roaring continuously but unable to move due to their extremely weak bodies.

With just one glance, hundreds of giants fainted with their eyes rolled back, and the noisy cursing stopped abruptly.

Then Rorschach disappeared out of thin air.

"Where... where is the person?" Loki looked around quickly, looking for Rorschach. He was terrified, as if his heart was being grasped by a big hand and would burst at any time.

Suddenly, Rorschach appeared in front of him, scaring Loki so much that he screamed and fell to the ground.

"Use your power to extract my soul."

Rorschach's next words stunned Loki. He opened his mouth and stammered, "You...what did you say?"

"Pull out my soul, now." Rorschach repeated, and Loki immediately felt a horrible pressure on himself, pressing on his soul and body, causing his back to bend, his mouth to gasp, and his ears to ring and his eyes to dizzy.

He had a premonition that if he hesitated for another second, his soul and body would be crushed by the pressure and he would die on the spot.

"Okay, no problem, I'll do whatever you tell me to do, as long as you don't kill me." Loki retched, barely getting rid of the fear in his heart. He gritted his teeth and crawled in front of Rorschach. A black shadow emerged in his hand and grabbed Rorschach.

"Soul extraction!"

Nothing appears.

Looking at Rorschach's expressionless face, Loki became more and more panicked. He grabbed Rorschach again and used the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit to the fullest, extracting the soul of Rorschach in front of him just like he had extracted the souls of all his past opponents and those giant beasts.

"Soul deprivation!"

Still nothing appeared.

After trying twice, Loki's hands didn't grab Rorschach's soul, but Rorschach's shoulders and arms.

"How...how could this happen? My ability is ineffective? This is impossible. This shouldn't be happening. You...you wait a little longer. There must be something wrong. Maybe I'm too tired."

Seeing that Rorschach looked at him indifferently from beginning to end, Loki panicked and hurriedly explained, fearing that Rorschach would punch him to death.

However, before he could finish his explanation, Rorschach disappeared again, leaving Loki sitting on the ground sweating profusely, wiping his sweat with lingering fear.

"What kind of monster is this guy? How can he be so scary?" Although Rorschach had left, Loki's eyes were still full of fear, and the heroic spirit that he had when he defeated his father and ascended the throne of the giants was gone.

At the beach on the other side of the island, as soon as Rorschach appeared, a burly figure with golden hair like a waterfall emerged from the fine electric light spreading from his body. He held his two strong arms, looked down at Rorschach condescendingly, grinned, and let out a loud laugh that only Rorschach could hear.

"Hehehehe, that brat's ability hasn't failed, has it, Rorschach?"

Rorschach didn't seem surprised at the appearance of this illusory figure. He just asked calmly, "You know what's going on with my body, Barrett."

The shadow of Barrett, composed of the electric light extending from Rorschach's body, grinned even wider.

He walked around Rorschach and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Rorschach, you have become a god."

"God?" Rorschach had a blank expression.

Barrett nodded.

"Yes, a god, or a demon, or a fantasy beast. Your soul and body have completely merged into one, and there is no difference between them, just like that idiot Totumjika."

"This is the highest realm of devil fruit development, a supreme realm that transcends fruit awakening. If you were just a host of power and a carrier of desire before, then now you have transcended that desire and have perfect control over your own abilities."

"This is the true path to the strongest that I realized only after my death. I didn't expect you to be able to do it."

"Rorschach, you are amazing. There are not many people I admire in my life, and you are one of them."

But soon, he looked at Rorschach with pity again.

"But it's a pity that you are going to die."

"You have indeed perfectly controlled your own abilities and have become a great being like the gods in ancient myths and legends, but your reckless devouring has caused more than one desire to exist in your body."

"You are now just like me on Wanbo Island. Your body is about to collapse and your soul will be destroyed."

"These desires are gradually corroding your soul, making you lose your humanity and emotions. If you can maintain your current state, it's good. You can still barely continue to live with the same attitude as that idiot Totumjika. If you overestimate your own abilities and continue to devour, hehehehe, you will either become a demon that devours the entire world, or you will die."

"So, what will you choose, Rorschach? I'm looking forward to it."
