One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 136 The Arrival of Smoker

Early the next morning.

As usual, Rorschach went outside, and when he saw the soldiers already training, a smile appeared on his face.

Having already experienced waking up early for a week, the soldiers no longer needed Rorschach to call them.

Of course, being woken up by Rorschach resulted in being whipped awake.

It's better to get up early than to be woken up by a whip.

Perhaps it was the sight of Luo Xia's arrival that made the soldiers, who had been somewhat listless, immediately become serious.

His eyes also became more bright.

Luo Xia nodded to himself and put the whip aside.

Luo Xia casually found a chair and sat down, watching the soldiers training not far away.

After an unknown amount of time, the soldier on lookout jogged up to Luo Xia and said, "Reporting to Lieutenant General Qinglong, a warship is approaching from the port!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Xia's eyes lit up. "Oh? Who's here?"

"Reporting to Lieutenant General Qinglong, I didn't see it clearly!"

"I think you should go and see for yourself!"

Luo Xia nodded, "Alright, if I don't like anyone who comes, I'll slap them right into the sea!"

The soldier's lips twitched, and he silently followed behind Luo Xia.

Soon, Rorschach arrived at the port alone.

The port was already filled with two rows of naval soldiers, as if they were welcoming someone.

Luo Xia frowned slightly, then cursed, "Damn it, you dare to act like this on my turf?"

Luo Xia only cursed once and then stopped talking. He wanted to see who dared to do this!

If the officer's rank is lower than his, he's doomed!

Even if a great general were to arrive, Luo Xia would still have to give him a good beating.

His current strength is no weaker than that of a general!

Soon, a series of footsteps came from the deck.

The sound grew closer as it approached, and Rorschach looked up to find himself facing it directly.

Their eyes were filled with calm.

Soon the man arrived in front of Rorschach.

Luo Xia stood up and asked with a surprised look, "What brings you here?"

"Smoker? Who sent you? You're not Fleet Admiral Sengoku, are you?"

Smoker took a deep drag of his cigarette and slowly exhaled. "That's right, I received orders from Fleet Admiral Sengoku to come here as the deputy base commander!"

As they were talking, Tashigi, who hadn't spoken until now, took out a transfer order from her bag.

"Reporting to Lieutenant General Qinglong, this is Lieutenant General Smoker's transfer order!"

Luo Xia took the slightly yellowed paper and looked at it.

The statement read: "Given Colonel Smoker's repeated requests to take up a post in the New World, his appointment as Deputy Base Commander of the New World Navy's G5 is hereby approved."

"Given Smoker's strength, his combat achievements are seriously mismatched with his rank. After deliberation by the Navy's high command, his rank has been promoted from Captain to Vice Admiral!"

After carefully reading the entire score, Luo Xia felt terrible.

Rorschach looked Smoker up and down and then said, "Vice Admiral Smoker, welcome!"

The two shook hands and then parted at lightning speed.

"Since you're all here, come with me. But I'm afraid the soldiers you brought with you won't make it. My place can't accommodate that many people!"

"Lieutenant General Qinglong, these people only brought us here; they'll be going back soon!"

After Tashigi finished speaking, she scratched her head, looking a little shy.

"That's it!"

Rorschach stroked his chin and asked, "Are you all going back by yourselves?"

"Yes, Lieutenant General Qinglong!"

"That won't do. Without strong individuals, we'll suffer!"

"Alright, come back with me first, and I'll use my Anywhere Door to send you back in a bit!"

Luo Xia waved, and everyone followed him to the training ground.

Upon arriving at the training ground, Luo Xia discovered that Zhiyuan was already sitting in a chair.

Luo Xia ignored Zhiyuan and waved his hand, instantly creating two ice chairs.

Rorschach gestured for the two to sit down.

Smoker didn't stand on ceremony and didn't mind that it was an ice chair. He plopped down on it, and Tashigi hesitated for a moment before sitting down as well.

The numerous marines stood silently behind Rorschach and Smoker, without disturbing them.

"Let me introduce you. This is Lieutenant General Smoker, the current deputy base commander, and his second-in-command, Tashigi!"

Upon hearing Rorschach's introduction, Gion was quite surprised. He hadn't expected Smoker to be working here, and even more surprising was that he was already a lieutenant general.

"Have you finished looking? The people who came have left, so I think you should go too!"

Gion paused, then pointed to herself. "You mean me?"

"Isn't that obvious? You've been here for so many days, why aren't you leaving?"

Rorschach wasn't in Guanzhi Garden. He got up and went to an open space. The next second, a door to anywhere appeared out of thin air in the open space.

Instead of opening the door, Rorschach went up to the hundred-plus marines and asked, "Which of you is the navigator?"

"Reporting, this is me!"

The man took a big step forward and stood in front of Luo Xia, looking at him with a puzzled expression.

Luo Xia had no intention of explaining to him.

Luo Xia snapped his fingers lightly, and soon four or five men with lewd looks and sweating profusely ran over.

They stopped in front of Rorschach and asked loudly, "Boss, what are your orders?"

His voice was extremely loud, as if he had received professional training.

Rorschach nodded expressionlessly, then pointed to the navigator who had just stepped forward and said, "Tie this navigator up!"

"Yes!"

Without the slightest hesitation, the five men quickly tied up the bewildered navigator.

Rorschach nodded.

Rorschach arrived in front of the Anywhere Door, reached out and gently twisted it, and the Anywhere Door opened.

Everyone craned their necks to look inside, but what they saw almost scared them to death.

Suddenly, a head appeared outside the door, and the person's face was none other than that of the Warring States Marshal.

Luo Xia curled his lip and pushed the Warring States Marshal's head away with one hand.

Rorschach waved to the hundred or so marines and said, "Soldiers over there, hurry up and go in! I've already opened the Anywhere Door!"

But the more Luo Xia spoke, the more those people retreated, leaving Luo Xia speechless.

After enduring this for so long, Rorschach finally snapped, "You bastards, what do you want?"

"I've already opened the Anywhere Door for you, why aren't you leaving?"

"You think you can just stay and eat for me all you want?"

"You're dreaming!"

"I'm already over capacity, I can't bring any more people in unless you pay me!"

At this moment, a dark-skinned man with the rank of colonel said, "Lieutenant General Qinglong, if we all go back, what should we do with the warships we brought?"

Luo Xia was taken aback, then said with an expression of utter certainty, "Of course we're staying here?"

"What else do you think we should do?"

Seeing that these people were still trying to cause trouble for him, Luo Xia lost his patience.

Seeing that Luo Xia was about to get angry, everyone gritted their teeth and entered the Anywhere Door.

More than a hundred people entered the Warring States period's office.

As Luo Xia watched these people enter Sengoku's office one by one from the island, he couldn't help but chuckle to himself.
