Chapter 79: Germa 66

Suddenly, two shells appeared out of nowhere, puzzling Rorschach, Drake, and the others with him.

The black shells were about to fall on the submarine, while Drake was still in shock.

Kujaku quickly drew her long whip from her waist and cracked it in the air.

The black whip extended over ten meters, like a snake flicking its tongue, striking the shells in two consecutive hits.

The shells, after being hit by the whip, did not explode. Instead, they shuddered slightly, changed their trajectory, and returned to where they had been launched from.

Rorschach looked on in amazement.

"This can't be real! Even the shells can be redirected? This Devil Fruit ability is completely illogical."

"Who dares to attack a warship? There's an admiral on board; could they be pirates?"

Drake was surprised and quickly pulled a binocular from his pocket, looking in the direction of the returning shells.

As soon as he looked, his expression changed.

He became excited...

Drake's cheeks flushed with excitement, and his eyes sparkled.

"It's... It's the Evil Legion! I didn't expect it to actually be the Evil Legion!"

Luo, who was holding the sword "Kikoku", paused and asked, "What's the Evil Legion?"

"You fool, how do you not know this? It's the Evil Legion Germa 66, those villains from the heroic tale of the Marine Soldier Sora!"

"They sail the seas on giant snail-shaped ships, spreading chaos everywhere." Drake clenched his fist, "And then they face the righteous hero Sora in fierce battles."

"Is... Is this real? Is there really an Evil Legion?"

Luo began looking through the binoculars that Drake had.

On the floating icebergs, Rorschach and Kuzan turned to look towards the sea behind them.

Mysterious shadows of successive ships appeared on the horizon.

Those ships were densely connected, their exact number unclear.

"Germa 66?" Rorschach blinked, "Could this be the Kingdom of Germa, belonging to Sanji's father, Judge?"

"Ah, it's the War Fortress, the only floating kingdom, Germa. It's quite a spectacular sight."

Kuzan placed his hand over his forehead to get a better look and expressed an amazed expression.

As the ships rapidly approached each other, Rorschach and the others were able to clearly see the details.

These were massive warships, dragged by giant snails.

Unlike traditional sailing ships, these fast-driven vessels were entirely made of iron and stone, giving them an immensely strong appearance.

On the sides of the ships, large circular chains continuously rotated, pulling the ships swiftly towards them.

When the distance shrunk to about a hundred meters, several black cannon ports appeared on the front warships.

Rorschach's expression slightly tightened.

"This kind of firepower isn't easy to deal with. Has Germa gone mad? How dare they attack the Navy?"

"There might be a misunderstanding. We didn't hoist the Navy's flag on our submarine because the missions of the 'Sharp Blade' unit aren't recognized by the General Headquarters, so we're not allowed to raise flags."

Kuzan muttered.

"Hey! Stop! We are a warship!"

Rorschach stomped on the ice surface and leaped into the air, heading towards the snail ships to negotiate.

At the same moment, the cannon ports on the warships lit up and began firing dense volleys of fireballs.

The sound of explosions echoed like fireworks, shaking the sea.

Dozens of heavy shells soared through the air, heading towards the submarine.

"Prepare for battle!"

Seeing this overwhelming number of shells, Drake and Luo quickly set aside their excitement, each drawing their long swords.

"ROOM! Slaughter Field!"

Luo opened his hand, creating an invisible current that formed a dome-shaped sphere covering the entire submarine.

Drake jumped into the air, unleashing several rapid strikes with his legs, creating dozens of air slashes.

"Rankyaku! Winter Rain!"

"Mud Strike!" Gross pulled some mud from his pocket, molded it into several small balls, and threw them into the air.

The shells exploded in mid-air after being sliced by sword strikes, hit by air slashes, or pierced by mud balls.

Rorschach also unleashed an air kick, blasting three incoming shells in the air.

At that moment, a green shadow sped through the air, heading towards Rorschach.

The approaching figure was incredibly fast, wearing boots that emitted light sparks, allowing him to fly in the air.

"Heavy Belt Strike!"

The man in the green cloak suddenly appeared before Rorschach, throwing a punch towards his chest.

"Is that Vinsmoke Yonji?"

Rorschach's eyes narrowed, and without flinching, he clenched his right fist, countering with a punch of his own.

"Iron Fist!"

The clash of fists resonated in the air, causing a powerful gust of wind.

Rorschach took a few steps back in the air before regaining his footing.

As for Yonji, dressed in a green combat suit, his right fist shattered, surprise filling his eyes, and then he was sent flying like a missile, smashing through part of the snail ship, and crashing into the sea.

"Huh?"

A distant voice expressed interest.

Then red and blue shadows appeared, quickly advancing towards Rorschach, attacking him.

The shadows belonged to two men: one wearing a red cloak with fire igniting in his hands, and the other in a blue suit, striking with electrical blows.

They were Vinsmoke Ichiji and Vinsmoke Niji, the other brothers of Sanji.

"Fire Vortex!"

"Electric Punch!"

Rorschach felt the danger approaching quickly, his silver hair fluttering in the air, and with a calm expression, he swiftly swung his sword towards Niji on the right.

The air slash shot directly towards his head.

But on the left side, the temperature suddenly rose, with a fiery hand rapidly closing in on his head.

"Wind Slash."

But the fiery fist hit nothing but empty air, exploding in the sky, as Rorschach narrowly avoided it, delivering a strike to the side.

"Needle Fist!"

Vinsmoke Ichiji put his gloved hand in the path of the strike, and his high-tech boots emitted a powerful burst of energy, kicking Luo in the face.

Meanwhile, Niji, who had briefly retreated due to Rorschach's strike, returned laughing, attacking from behind with an electrified fist.

"Stop! We're not pirates."

Rorschach shouted in a deep voice.

But Ichiji and Niji paid no attention to his words and only increased the speed of their attacks.

Feeling frustrated, Rorschach suddenly expanded his body, with bright blue scales appearing on his skin.

His right leg, moving at incredible speed like a steel whip, struck Niji's face, shattering his sunglasses, sending him crashing like a shooting star into the sea, causing a massive splash.

"Devil Fruit user?"

Ichiji's expression changed, and the flames from his boots intensified as he charged towards Rorschach.

"Storm Kick——"

A whirlwind rose around Rorschach's massive body, significantly boosting his speed, and he disappeared from Ichiji's sight.

"Air Slash!"

The compressed air shot through and sliced into Ichiji's back with immense force.

Blood spurted from Ichiji's mouth as he fell back onto the snail ship, crashing into a giant snail, causing him to cry out in pain.

"What?" Aboard a massive snail-shaped ship, Vinsmoke Judge, with his curly blond hair, watched the scene in astonishment.
