One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 144 Little Red Hair

Perhaps it was hearing Garp's spirited voice, but for some reason, Ace's body shuddered.

Memories gradually filled his mind.

After dealing with Ace, Rorschach finally had time to rest.

But as soon as he sat down, the piece of cloth he had been holding caught Luo Xia's eye.

This cloth has two sides, one red and the other purple, and it has a capsule-like pattern on it.

Soon, an introduction appeared in Rorschach's mind.

Item: Time Capsule (Complete Version).

Effect: A person, animal, or other object wrapped in this material can have their age reversed by thirty years or increased by thirty years.

Note: Red indicates time increments, purple indicates time decrements.

When Rorschach digested what was in his mind, he was completely shocked.

Although I've never seen this thing in real life, its power is truly astounding!

Luo Xia was both amused and speechless. "Could this have been stolen by the system?"

Did you steal it from some Doraemon?

Rorschach's ramblings.

[Ding! Please refrain from making malicious speculations about the system. Warning issued!]

Luo Xia pursed his lips, completely unconcerned.

at the same time.

Everyone present looked at Luo Xia, wondering what he was muttering to himself. The next second, Luo Xia opened his eyes.

Although it didn't frighten Rorschach, the redhead still leaned closer and asked, "Rorschach, what is that thing in your hand?"

"Could it be another prop?"

Rorschach clutched the Time Cloth in his hand, his eyes seemingly burning with flames.

"This stuff is really good, Redhead, do you want to try it? I'll pay you!"

Redhead's eyes lit up and he blurted out, "No charge? That's great, I'll give it a try!"

Just as Beckman was about to stop him, the red-haired man had already agreed.

After thinking about it carefully, he decided to leave it at that. Rorschach was a friend of the Red-Haired Pirates and wouldn't harm his captain.

Rorschach acted immediately, laying the Time Cloth flat on the snow, right side up and back side down.

Rorschach pointed at Redhead and laughed, "Come on, Redhead, sit up here!"

"Hey, what's this thing? It looks pretty interesting!"

Without further hesitation, the red-haired man plopped down right in the center of the Time Cloth.

"Alright, now I'm going to wrap you up. You can look forward to what's coming next."

As Rorschach tied the four corners of the Time Cloth together, Beckman, Karp, and the others all gathered around to see the effect of the item.

A few seconds later, the red hair that had been wrapped up like a dumpling and had been motionless began to shrink.

The time lasted for a few seconds.

Seeing this, the redheads felt uneasy. They all stared intently at the Time Cloth, their eyes practically popping out of their sockets.

"Don't worry, Shanks is fine!"

To be honest, Luo Xia's voice just now sounded a bit weak. It was his first time using it, and he had no idea what would happen.

So even Luo Xia's hands trembled a little as he unbuttoned his shirt.

Even Rorschach was silently praying, "Please, please don't let anything happen to you! If something happens to you, I won't be able to leave!"

It took about a minute to untangle the knot, and it was finally free.

When the light curtain was opened, almost everyone's jaw dropped to the ground; the scene was quite exaggerated.

Beckman swallowed hard, carefully walked up to the redhead, squatted down, and forced a smile as he asked, "Are you... are you our leader?"

"Beckman, are you confused? Of course I am..."

The redhead's voice trailed off, and he felt as if he had become a little different.

His body felt much lighter, but suddenly he had a bad feeling.

By this time, Rorschach had already made a body mirror that could reflect almost the entire body of the red-haired man.

“Redhead, look!” Rorschach laughed, patting himself in the mirror.

Redhead turned his head and saw his entire face.

At this moment, the person reflected in Rorschach's mirror was about 1.2 to 1.3 meters tall, with dark skin and three small claw marks around his eyes, making him look somewhat cute.

Gudong~

Redhead stared blankly at the person in the mirror in front of him, his eyes unblinking.

The entire island became unusually quiet for some unknown reason, and even the red-haired group dared not make a sound.

Finally, five minutes later, Shanks, the person involved, came to his senses and plopped down on the Time Cloth.

Redhead raised his hands, looking at them which were twice their original size, in disbelief. "This...this nine-year-old child, could it be me?"

Rorschach nodded, then plopped down on the floor. "That's right, that's right, it's you, Redhead!"

"How about that? Isn't my prop amazing!"

Hearing their conversation, those present finally snapped out of their surprise.

They stared curiously at the now-shrunken red hair.

However, one person was staring intently at the shrinking red hair with shining eyes.

Garp grinned and casually walked up to Shanks, putting his arm around Shanks' shoulder. "Hahaha, I never expected to see Shanks shrunk down like this. How about it? Want to be my grandson?"

"You old geezer, your grandson is over there, don't go around claiming grandsons everywhere!"

Garp, who had been pushed, didn't seem to care at all. "Hahaha, if you don't want to be my grandson, how about joining the Navy?"

"You can't turn back anyway!"

The moment the words were spoken, the expressions of almost all the Red-Haired Pirates changed repeatedly, but in the end they did not make a move and instead looked at Rorschach.

After all, the item belonged to him, and Rorschach knew whether it could be turned back.

Rorschach glared at Garp, then casually used a spatial teleportation technique to throw Garp back to Ace's side.

"Don't make things worse, old man, go play somewhere else!"

At this moment, everyone in the Red-Haired Pirates looked at Rorschach, seemingly asking him to give an explanation.

"Ahem, this item is called the Time Cloth. Anyone or anything wrapped in it can have their lifespan increased or decreased by thirty years."

"Take Shanks, for example. He's already reduced his lifespan by thirty or thirty years."

After a detailed explanation, everyone nodded in agreement.

Beckman stared intently into Rorschach's eyes and asked, "So our heads can still recover, right?"

"Do you want to restore him?"

Almost all the members of the Red-Haired Pirates nodded at the same time.

"I see. Actually, even redheads like this can unleash their full power."

"Alright then, I'll help you recover, little redhead!"

Rorschach grinned, grabbed the red hair in his hand, and tightly wrapped it with the Time Cloth. A few minutes later...

The red hair that was being covered up gradually grew larger.

Seeing that it had stopped, Rorschach ripped off the Time Cloth.

As soon as the veil of time was pulled back, the red hair came into everyone's view.

Seeing that Shanks had recovered, the members of the Red Hair Gang breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

"Boss, you can't use Rorschach's gadgets anymore!"

"I thought our captain would be Red Hair in the future!"

The crew of the Red-Haired Pirates burst into laughter, which made Shanks so angry that he wanted to hit someone.
