One Piece: Starting as the First Mate of the Lothar Pirates

A powerful aura can neutralize or neutralize the power of a Devil Fruit.

The moment Rocks unleashed his own domineering aura, the simulation ability that Luo Chuan had placed on him was broken.

He transformed in an instant, from a cube-shaped piglet who was 160 cm tall and weighed 160 kg into a domineering and tough man who was three meters tall and had muscles like a dragon.

"Lo...Lox!!!"

Galin, the young knight of the Figarand family, struggled to breathe, his face filled with disbelief and incredulity.

"It's you! How could it be you? Rocks D. Gibbek!" Shepherd Somaz Saint cried out in a trembling voice.

This was his first time meeting Rocks face to face, but he was already very familiar with the name Rocks.

He placed Rocks at the very top of his list of enemies he could not confront head-on.

"Hey, hey, hey, can someone tell me what's going on?" The goddess rider of the Thatcherz family screamed in alarm.

"The Devil Fruit power... From the very beginning, that kid from the Babette family had already been replaced by him." The God Knight guessed the answer.

"If the Babettes are actually Lockes in disguise, then Marcus Richard, could that guy also be..."

Manmaiyagra's pupils contracted sharply, and he turned his head abruptly to look at the Pangu City, where lightning was flashing incessantly.

At this moment, what could he not understand?!

How could Richard, who has wasted decades of his life, possess such overwhelming strength?

The reason for this is not that he secretly worked hard in places where no one could see him!

It's clearly because they changed the person!

A terrifying man has taken his place!

Now that Rocks has revealed his true identity, the identity of the man who replaced Markus Richard is also becoming increasingly clear.

……

Pangu City, the Void Palace.

"Luo Chuan!"

"Thor Luo Chuan!"

"It was you!!!"

The Five Elders, the world's most powerful beings, roared in fury, their voices cracking with shock, as their voices rang out in the hall.

……

Chapter 78 Luo Chuan vs. Im

Naval Headquarters, Marineford.

Waaaaah~ Waaaah~

The piercing red alarm blared, lingering over headquarters for a long time.

The marines, who had just finished a day of training and were preparing to go back to rest, immediately set off.

As for officers of the rank of colonel, they were all assembled shortly after the alarm was sounded.

Headquarters building, Operations Conference Room.

"What is the current situation of the Holy Land?" the Navy Admiral asked in a deep voice.

"Report!" The 'King of Meetings' of this era saluted and said, "Just now, we made contact with the Holy Land. The slave prison area has been completely overrun, and countless slaves have escaped..."

"Isn't this a good thing?" newly appointed Navy Commodore Garp raised his hand to speak.

"Garp, what did you just say?" The Navy Admiral was taken aback.

"I say, those evil slaves of the Celestial Dragons are so damned. You should just wash up and go back to sleep." Garp said, getting up to leave.

"Garp, you idiot, shut up!" Brigadier General Sengoku, his face dark, covered Garp's mouth with one hand and pressed him down to sit obediently with the other.

Many of the naval officers present secretly gave Garp a thumbs-up in response to his statement, indicating their agreement and approval.

It has to be said that Garp's words resonated with them deeply.

The Celestial Dragons' slaves have escaped, which is naturally a great thing.

Any general with a sense of justice would not condone the slave system and would not tolerate the actions of the Celestial Dragons.

Putting explosive collars on ordinary people, turning them into slaves, and subjecting them to torture and humiliation is contrary to the Navy and their justice.

However, even if they disagree, there's nothing they can do; the Navy was born to serve the government and the Celestial Dragons.

Unable to defy the government and the Celestial Dragons, they could only turn a blind eye to the suffering of their slaves, unable to do anything about it.

"Continue your report." The Navy Admiral glanced at the 'Meeting King' and gestured for him to continue.

"Yes!" The meeting king snapped out of his reverie and said, "The identities of the prisoners who stormed the prison area have been confirmed. They are two top executives of Rocks Mercenary F—Yakuza Shiki and Edward Newgate!"

Chaos~

"Rocks!"

"It's the Rocks gang again!"

Naval 12 = Allowed to send four ships to be confused.

"Rocks and his gang would actually do something like this?" Garp broke free from Sengoku's grasp and once again voiced his thunderous opinion.

Sengoku: "..."

Marshal: "..."

The Holy Land of Mary Geoise is in dire straits right now, so can you please refrain from mentioning anything 'good'?

"Is it only Yakuza Shiki and Edward Newgate? What about Rocks? And that Thor, Luo Chuan?" Admiral Leopard asked, frowning.

"Reporting to the General, regarding the other two, there is still no confirmation..."

Halfway through the meeting, Wang was speaking when a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the meeting room.

"B-B-B-Hit is terrible, Marshal! Loro...Lox has appeared in the Holy Land! In addition, Pangu City has been attacked by the Thunder Beast..." The major of the intelligence liaison department shouted as he reported the latest situation in the Holy Land.

Upon hearing this, all the naval officers knew that the two people the admiral was concerned about had also appeared.

Before they could take any action, another marine from the intelligence department rushed over.

"Marshal, it has been confirmed in the Holy Land that Rocks and Thor Luochuan have infiltrated the Holy Land long ago, taking the identities of other Celestial Dragons and operating there."

"what!!!"

This news caused another stir among the audience.

"Lox and Luo Chuan... the Luo brothers actually infiltrated the Holy Land long ago? How is that possible? How did they do it? Why weren't they discovered all this time?"

The Navy's 101 asked a series of questions, their faces filled with disbelief and incredulity.

After all, that's the holy city of Mariajoia!

Even a mosquito trying to get in would be stopped.

However, two sea thugs brazenly sneaked in.

He even took over the identity of a Celestial Dragon and did whatever he wanted... which was completely out of line.

"It's likely that they used some kind of Devil Fruit power to disguise and transform themselves," said Admiral Raymond.

"At this point, it's not time to investigate how they infiltrated. The important thing is their identities. Which two Celestial Dragons were impersonated?" the Fleet Admiral asked.

In fact, the moment the question was posed, he already had the answer in his heart.

During this period, the disturbances that occurred in the Holy Land were not deliberately concealed. The Naval Headquarters also received the news, which even caused a sensation at one point.

In recent days, the only two Celestial Dragons to have caused such a major incident in the Holy Land are...

"It's Lord Richard of the Marcus family and the Babette family..."

"Kotsuru, you were right!" Brigadier General Sengoku's mouth dropped open, and he was completely stunned.

Yesterday, Colonel Tsuru raised this conjecture, but Sengoku didn't take it seriously at all, thinking it impossible. Little did he know…

"Wait, Celestial Dragon Richard Saint has been replaced? When exactly... could it be..." A Navy vice admiral widened his eyes, realizing something.

"Yes, if nothing unexpected happens, that should be that day." Admiral Griffin took a deep breath, a cold sweat breaking out on his back.

"That day on the Sabaody Archipelago, the Richard Saint who miraculously survived was not the real person, but rather Thor Luo Chuan in disguise. So, after that..."

"It was Lei Shen Luo Chuan who beat up the admiral and then cursed the entire navy. He... he's really too despicable!"

None of the people present were idiots; they had all realized what was happening by now.

A naval admiral must not be insulted!

Even Celestial Dragons wouldn't openly insult or slap an Admiral, but on that day, Celestial Dragon Richard did just that.

They even went so far as to provoke him in every way, as if they wouldn't stop until they angered their general.

I initially thought that Celestial Dragon had gone mad from fright.

Unexpectedly, it was done on purpose.

The real Celestial Dragons are long dead; that one was just an imposter.

His purpose in doing so is not hard to guess; he simply wanted to provoke conflict between the navy and the government.

If the admiral is truly provoked... a naval admiral openly attacking a Celestial Dragon would be a serious offense.

"What a cunning man! I almost fell for his trick!" Sengoku was also drenched in cold sweat.

You know, at that moment, he almost threw a punch.

"Gentlemen, the situation is clear. Now, I issue my order: all officers and soldiers must immediately support the Holy Land. This time, we absolutely cannot let those villains escape again, especially the two ringleaders, Rocks and Thor Luochuan." The Navy Admiral's gaze was icy as he waved his hand to give the order.

"Yes!!!"

……

……

Pangu City, the Void Palace.

"Waaaaaah!"

The five elders of Mars, transformed into bird-snake monster Itsumade, roared furiously, their bird eyes turning bloodshot.

Lead the wolf into the room!

We've let a wolf into the house!

He was overjoyed to see his once talented protégé, Richard, make a comeback.

For this reason, he even went so far as to negotiate with other celebrity partners multiple times, using his own influence to help him resolve the trouble.

In the end, it was only because of him that Richard was given the opportunity to meet Lord Im.

The Five Elders of Mars thought this would be the beginning of their family's prosperity, but reality gave them a harsh lesson.

The more he valued Richard Los Angeles before, the more he hates him now!

"How dare you... how dare you impersonate a Celestial Dragon and act arrogantly in the Holy Land! You brat from the Rocks Order, even if I skin you alive, tear you to pieces, and grind your bones to ashes, it still won't quell the hatred in my heart!"

The five elders of Mars were so enraged that their enormous bodies trembled uncontrollably, and their black and red Conqueror's Haki lightning leaked out uncontrollably.

"Thor Luochuan, how did you do that? The Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit doesn't have the power to transform... Besides the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, you don't actually have any other abilities, do you?!"

Upon realizing this possibility, Satan, one of the five elders of Saturn, suddenly narrowed his eyes.

During their journey across the vast ocean, Luo Chuan participated in many major events with the Rocks Group.

It's impossible to completely hide the truth about his abilities.

Within the Rocks Company, although it was never mentioned openly, Shiki, Newgate, and others had tacitly acknowledged that he possessed multiple abilities.

As for the government, over the past few years, the CP spy organization has collected a lot of intelligence about Luochuan.

Based on this information, it is not difficult to conclude that Luo Chuan is a user of multiple Devil Fruit abilities.

However, the truth was so shocking that the Five Elders couldn't accept it for a while.

"A person can only possess one ability in their lifetime, how did you manage to possess multiple demonic powers!" Pitt, one of the Five Elders of Jupiter, roared.

"I'm sorry, it involves classified information, so I'm afraid I can't tell you." Luo Chuan stood atop the Thunder Qilin's head and responded calmly.
