One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 21 Gion with a Small Whip

"Oh dear, I'm not dead!"

"And that Rorschach kid used the real Ice-Ice Fruit ability!"

Neither Kizaru nor Akainu believed Aokiji's explanation, but given their years of working together, they still had doubts.

Zhan Guo slammed his hand on the table. "Alright, I didn't call you here for you to question me. I just wanted to inform you and let you know."

"I've already confirmed with Aokiji, Kotsuru, and me that it is indeed a Logia-type Ice-Ice Fruit."

Garp nodded at that moment, "That's right, that's right, this brat has frozen me several times already!"

When Sengoku and Garp both said this, everyone present was extremely surprised, especially the three who were unaware of the situation: Kizaru, Akainu, and Zephyr.

Kizaru's lips curved slightly into a smile, and his eyes behind his sunglasses seemed to be lost in thought.

……

In the courtyard of the Zhiyuan Villa...

"Hurry up! Swing it faster!"

Are you a turtle?

The loud voice belonged to Zhiyuan. At this moment, Zhiyuan was holding a whip and walking behind Luo Xia. Every step he took had an unparalleled sense of oppression in Luo Xia's eyes, which made Luo Xia very nervous.

Luo Xia is currently wielding the Tiger Hunt sword, swinging it forcefully with each swing, each strike carrying eight parts flame and two parts sword energy.

In front of Rorschach was an ice wall he had just created using the Ice-Ice Fruit power he had just acquired. Because it was ice, it wouldn't melt so quickly.

As for why Rorschach ended up in such a state, it was naturally because Gion forced him to.

She said, "Since you've already agreed to teach me, then I'll naturally teach you and make you stronger!"

"And they have two such powerful Devil Fruit abilities, they can't afford to waste them!"

So Rorschach was taken to the courtyard of his own villa, which was next to Garp's villa in Gion.

But when Luo Xia arrived at the villa, Zhiyuan revealed his true colors, becoming incredibly violent. Luo Xia, who had been lazy and relaxed, suddenly produced a whip from somewhere.

Rorschach was then whipped, but this didn't hurt him. However, Gion's whip was frozen.

It was only then that Gion realized that Rorschach could no longer be viewed as an ordinary marine; he had acquired all the properties of the Ice-Ice Fruit.

So whenever Rorschach slacked off, Gion would whip him with a whip covered in Armament Haki.

This caused Luo Xia great distress, and he secretly made a mental note of Zhiyuan.

Rorschach's sweat poured down like water, but it was quickly frozen. Just then, a voice rang in Rorschach's mind: [Ding! Detected that the host is undergoing swordsmanship training. Long-term mission activated.]

[Ding! Your personal panel is now open!]

[Ding! Long-term mission. Please swing your sword 10,000 times daily. Rewards will be calculated every 15 days and will be triggered randomly!]

As voices continued to echo in Luo Xia's mind, he was stunned and momentarily forgot that there was a girl named Zhiyuan holding a small leather whip next to him.

Suddenly, Luo Xia felt a gust of wind beside his ear. The next second, Luo Xia almost subconsciously used Shave. As soon as Luo Xia left the original place, in the blink of an eye, cracks appeared on the ground from the whip.

Luo Xia swallowed hard, looked up, and saw Zhiyuan laugh, "Only now you know how to hide?"

"Are you so stubborn?"

"It took you so long to realize you needed to hide?"

Luo Xia frowned and asked, "Hey, you stinky woman, what trick are you up to now?"

Luo Xia's impression of this woman had completely changed after he had been whipped a few times, so he didn't believe a word that Zhiyuan had just said.

Who holds a whip and lets people run away? And the way she looked at me made it seem like she thought I was the only one who knew.

"Hmph, I never said you couldn't run away, did I?"

"Firstly, having you practice swordsmanship every day is to train you. As for dodging, it's to prepare you for flexibility and versatility on the battlefield in the future."

"You stupidly let me hit you, so who can you blame?"

After saying this, Gion put on an innocent expression. If that lewd tea boy saw this, he would probably confess his love again.

"You...you just wait!"

Luo Xia pouted, looking indignant, and began to swing his sword, Tiger Hunt.

Gion nodded in satisfaction. Although she had been tricked, her character was still quite good.

About thirty minutes later, a large group of people walked towards the Gion Villa, with the leader being Marshal Sengoku.

From a distance, Sengoku could see that Gion was holding a whip and seemed to be whipping something.

"You brat, you better get out of here quickly, or my whip will make you regret it!"

"Crack! Crack! Crack!" The sound of the whip striking the ground was exceptionally crisp.

"You bitch, just you wait until I'm better than you!"

As Luo Xia spoke, he provoked Zhiyuan, and at the same time, his shaving became more and more skillful.

Suddenly, a fiery red, magma-like object flew in from a distance.

Rorschach turned around abruptly, and a ball of magma the size of a basketball was hurtling towards him.

Luo Xia's pupils contracted, and his hands instantly turned ice blue. Just as he was about to make a move, a pink figure blocked his way. The person was Zhiyuan, and at the same time, the golden dagger at her waist was instantly drawn.

The extreme cold transformed into a slash that hurtled towards the mass of magma.

The magma mass instantly transformed into a frozen stone.

After dealing with the mass of lava, Zhiyuan sheathed his sword, turned around, and smiled, "How was that? Wasn't I amazing?"

"You wretched woman, I can handle this tiny lava ball myself. Who asked you to meddle?"

Zhiyuan glared at Luo Xia and grabbed her ear. "Hmph, how dare you talk to your older sister like that? Calling her a stinky woman?"

"Ahem!" An old voice reached their ears.

Luo Xia and Zhiyuan shook their heads and looked over; it was the same Sengoku they had visited before.

"Hmm? Marshal of the Warring States, what brings you here again?"

The Warring States Marshal stepped forward with a smile, followed by a group of generals.

In particular, Zefa's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's.

Rorschach looked a little weak when he saw Zefa; he was currently quite exhausted. However, Zefa didn't say anything to him.

"Marshal of the Warring States, what just happened?" Gion asked, frowning.

"Just now? Akainu did it on his own initiative, and I didn't even have time to stop him!"

"Hmph, I just want to test this kid's Ice-Ice Fruit ability. Everyone's saying he has the Ice-Ice Fruit, so I'll give it a try!"

Akainu crossed his arms and maintained an arrogant expression on his face.

"Rorschach, why are you sitting on the ground? Didn't you see how many naval officers have come?"

Rorschach shrugged and said, "I'm really sorry, Admiral Akainu, I was just training and I'm exhausted."

Indeed, this is true. Rorschach lacks training, so it is quite remarkable that he has such stamina for his level.

Gion explained, "That's right, I was training him just now, but the training method was a bit special."

Gion threw the whip in his hand at Rorschach.

The generals knew something about Gion's personality, but they were still quite surprised that she was able to train Rorschach.
