One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 55 Lottery Roulette

Upon hearing Luo Xia's words, the two who had been dumbfounded instantly stood up.

The two moved as if they were copied and pasted, even their expressions were the same.

Garp scolded them with exasperation, "Look at you two, so useless! Come and sit down!"

"Oh well!"

When the two sat back down, Luo Xia could clearly sense that they had become reserved.

Luo Xia felt quite disdainful.

A deserter king? That's all there is to him!

"Old man, when we arrived just now, one of them was hitting a sandbag? And the other was chopping... chopping an iron plate?"

"Will this make me stronger?" Luo Xia asked doubtfully.

At the same time, Luo Xia was also very curious about whether the old man would actually teach his apprentices.

If you're saying no, then Aokiji is very strong, but Aokiji's strength is due to his own efforts.

But Rorschach couldn't bring himself to say it!

Garp picked his nose and casually put his arm around Koby. "Hahaha, I've been treating Koby like my successor."

"Moreover, I intend to have him train in Iron Fist."

Garp patted the muscles on his shoulder and laughed, "Just as strong as my physical skills!"

Rorschach shook his head, pointed at Coby's frail body, and said speechlessly, "Devil Fruits really do increase strength pretty quickly!"

"Is it possible that your cultivation method is only suitable for you?"

After Luo Xia finished speaking, he looked at Zhiyuan and asked, "Zhiyuan, what do you think?"

After a long silence, Gion nodded in agreement, "Perhaps Rorschach is right, Devil Fruits are also a path."

Garp shrugged after hearing their words, "I don't have any Devil Fruits right now, but you brat do, don't you?"

Rorschach, who was sitting in the chair, thought that Garp would go find Devil Fruits for the two of them, but it turned out that the guy had his eye on him instead.

Luo Xia quickly made an "X" sign in front of his chest, "No way, old man!"

"I already have an owner for this Nature-type Pokémon, but he doesn't want it."

Luo Xia paused halfway through his sentence, then continued, "It takes real resolve to make them eat such top-tier Devil Fruits, doesn't it?"

"A person like that, with that kind of personality, would probably desert even on the battlefield, right?" Luo Xia's eyes were full of disdain, and his tone was tinged with a hint of sneer.

Garp frowned, then nonchalantly began eating his senbei.

Although Garp didn't care, the two opposite him were furious.

"Hey, Brigadier General Rorschach, we're just new recruits, what gives you the right to laugh at us like that?"

"That's right, that's right!"

Luo Xia looked up at the sky, and in that day, he seemed to see his former self reflected in his eyes.

Not long after, Luo Xia looked at the two people opposite him and asked, "You two don't currently have the strength to earn my respect!"

At this point, Luo Xia gave a sinister smile, his eyes seemingly filled with murderous intent, "If you two desert on the battlefield, I'll kill you with my own hands!"

Almost the instant he finished speaking, Luo Xia felt a gust of wind coming from the back of his head.

Rorschach used Shave almost instinctively, teleporting behind Gion.

Rorschach looked up at Garp speechlessly and said, "You old geezer, even though your punch won't kill me, it still hurts a lot, okay?"

"I was just stating a fact!"

After Luo Xia finished speaking, he grabbed Zhiyuan and tapped Zhiyuan's arm with his finger. Zhiyuan understood immediately and activated his ability.

In an instant, a pink light flew away into the distance.

Meanwhile, Garp, who was at the training ground, burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha!"

"You two brats, from today onwards I'm going to train you to death!"

Upon hearing Garp's voice, the two, who were initially quite angry, instantly stood up and stood in front of Garp.

“That kid is Luo Xia. I just introduced him to you. His abilities are very special.”

With Garp's explanation, the two once again realized how outstanding Rorschach was.

He became a brigadier general within a year of joining the navy.

Zefa's training course completely outclassed all other students in the same cohort.

Throughout the year, they trained from morning till night, determined not to give up until they achieved their daily goals.

Each of the synthesized items is of great importance to the navy.

Furthermore, it can incorporate flames into the blade.

There's an even more terrifying one, which Garp didn't explicitly state, only saying that Rorschach has some connection to Devil Fruits.

After Karp's gentle explanation, the two of them realized once again just how vast the gap was between them and Rorschach.

After explaining everything, Garp stared at the two of them seriously and said slowly, "So you can only train and not slack off, because... he really can kill you!"

"And he has countless ways to kill you all, even without a sound!"

With that serious tone and earnest gaze, Koby and the other man nervously swallowed, now completely believing what Garp had said.

Normally, when they see Garp, he's either laughing loudly, acting nonchalant, or fast asleep.

This was truly the first time they had ever seen Garp so serious.

Kobi and the other immediately stood at attention and saluted, "Yes, we will definitely work hard in our training."

Meanwhile, Luo Xia jumped down from Zhiyuan's arms and patted his clothes.

Then Luo Xia turned around and said with a wry smile, "Ahem, it seems I've offended the old man."

"Could I...could I stay at your place for a while?"

Luo Xia, perhaps fearing that Zhiyuan would refuse, quickly said, "I'll pay the rent; I won't stay for free!"

Gion was initially inclined to agree outright, but upon hearing that Luo Xia wanted to pay rent, Gion's eyes lit up with interest as she asked, "How much can you pay?"

"I'll think about it!"

Luo Xia's lips twitched. He thought that out of consideration for their master-disciple relationship, this woman, Zhiyuan, wouldn't want it, but it turned out she really dared to want it!

Luo Xia hesitated for a moment, then said, "One hundred million a year?"

Rorschach extended a finger, though it was trembling.

He regretted it as soon as he opened his mouth; why did he have to say so much?

sloppy.

The next second, Zhiyuan grasped Luo Xia's fingers with both hands and said with a smile, "One hundred million, deal."

Luo Xia's lips twitched and he hurriedly shook his head, "I said one hundred million a year. If I beat you up later, I can't charge you anymore!"

"Sure, sure, but only if it takes you a few years to beat me, little brother Luo Xia~" Zhiyuan's voice even became charming and extremely seductive.

Luo Xia pursed his lips, "Well... let's talk about it later!"

Who made his system just a synthesis system? It's only natural that his strength grows slowly!

System: So you're very proud of it?

A few minutes later, Rorschach returned to his original room in the Gion family home.

Upon entering the room, Luo Xia immediately felt that it was as if it were regularly cleaned, as there wasn't a speck of dust.

Before he could examine it for long, a familiar voice rang in Luo Xia's mind.
