Chapter 86 This... seems like we've been caught red-handed?
Unlike the atmosphere at Rorschach's side, at this moment, at Marine Headquarters...
The Warring States Office.
The Warring States Marshal gently stroked his beard, which looked as if it had been gnawed on.
Zhan Guo's eyes were filled with rage, his teeth were grinding, and his fists were clenched tightly.
Garp, sitting in a chair next to him, was slapping his thigh and laughing nonstop.
"Hahahahaha!"
"This is absolutely hilarious!"
"Damn Garp, stop laughing! You better find out what kind of ability this user has!"
Sengoku stood up angrily, his eyes sharp, looking determined to find the guy who had pulled his beard.
Meanwhile, on a warship in the Amazon rainforest.
Rorschach held onto the Anywhere Door tightly.
"Won't we get caught this time?" Luo Xia asked, turning his head.
"I... I don't think so,"
Rorschach glanced at the flying squirrel's tone of voice and could tell it didn't have much courage.
And this time, I'm going to sneakily get my hands on the Sengoku Face Donut.
Luo Xia pondered for a long time, then suddenly a light appeared in his hand, and a blue light enveloped the Anywhere Door.
With the release of spatial power in his other hand, Rorschach produced a perfectly square, transparent cube.
The things in their hands vanished instantly in the next second, and about five minutes later, the vanished portal suddenly reappeared.
This time, the Anywhere Door has a more lustrous finish.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully improved the Anywhere Door!]
Luo Xia looked completely bewildered.
Luo Xia wondered to himself, "No reward?"
【…】
Rorschach sighed inwardly, then turned his gaze to the Anywhere Door he was holding.
Luo Xia slightly parted his fingers and turned the doorknob, slowly extending his right hand inside.
To his surprise, a rough and powerful hand suddenly grabbed Luo Xia's wrist.
Furthermore, Rorschach also heard Sengoku's excited voice from the other end, "Garp, come quick, we caught him, hurry up and get over here!"
Hearing the voice outside the Anywhere Door, the flying squirrel came over and asked, "What's going on, General Azure Dragon?"
"This...it seems we've been caught red-handed!"
The flying squirrel instinctively glanced at the beard that Rorschach had tossed aside, and cold sweat instantly streamed down its forehead.
The flying squirrel cried out in a panic, "Azure...Azure Dragon, hurry! We can't let Marshal Sengoku catch us!"
Rorschach had no time to deal with the flying squirrel; he was currently struggling to break free from Marshal Sengoku's iron grip.
Warring States Office...
At this moment, Garp and Sengoku were looking at the arm and the pink Anywhere Door, feeling a sense of familiarity.
Suddenly, Garp had a flash of inspiration and blurted out, "Rorschach, you brat, isn't that you!"
"Hahaha, you actually pulled out all of Sengoku's beard."
On the calm sea, Rorschach was sweating profusely with anxiety. Garp's words only made him more anxious.
"Slap!" Luo Xia slapped himself.
"Damn, I can elementalize!"
Upon realizing this, Luo Xia instantly turned his arm into a pile of shattered ice.
Sengoku, who was holding onto Rorschach tightly, took a few steps back due to inertia.
Sengoku stared at the shattered ice on the table, lost in deep thought.
Sengoku looked at his beard, then at the shards of ice on the table, and his mind drifted back to the Anywhere Door he had just created.
Sengoku, being a strategist, immediately connected the dots between the series of events.
Sengoku slowly sat down, took out a Den Den Mushi from his pocket, and dialed directly.
A short while later, a serious voice came from the Den Den Mushi, "Marshal Sengoku, what can I do for you?"
Where are you flying squirrels now?
Sengoku clearly remembered that he had sent Momonga and Rorschach to invite Boa Hancock, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and he would never forget that.
And Rorschach was definitely eavesdropping.
Five minutes passed, and just as Sengoku was growing impatient, Momonga finally said, "Marshal Sengoku... we are currently near the Amazon Lily Sea!"
After saying this, the flying squirrel seemed to have used up all its strength.
As the flying squirrel sat down on the ground, Rorschach chuckled inwardly, "Dark Might, I never expected that such a serious Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel would be afraid of Fleet Admiral Sengoku?"
"That's really strange!"
At this time, in the Sengoku office of the Naval Headquarters.
Sengoku took out a pink door from the corner of his office; it was none other than the Anywhere Door.
"Sengoku, you're not going to go find Rorschach and the others, are you?" Garp asked.
"That's right, besides asking him questions, I also have important matters to discuss with him!"
Sengoku placed the Anywhere Door vertically on the ground, then gently turned the handle, and the Anywhere Door was opened directly by Sengoku.
Upon closer inspection, the first thing Sengoku saw was a warship, but upon further inspection, he realized that he was surrounded by the vast ocean.
Sengoku glanced at the Anywhere Door and then at the warship opposite him. Helpless, Sengoku took out a Den Den Mushi.
The Den Den Mushi was connected again, but this time Rorschach answered the flying squirrel's Den Den Mushi.
"Mosimoxi!"
"Hey kid, look over there!"
Luo Xia lifted his tired eyelids and glanced at the opposite side. At that moment, there was an open door standing on the sea.
"See that? That's me and Garp on the other side. You kid, hurry up and use your freezing ability to freeze the sea!"
Luo Xia frowned slightly and said speechlessly, "I was the one who pulled your beard just now. If you come over, Marshal, wouldn't I be in big trouble?"
"No way! No way!" Luo Xia said, adding gestures as he spoke.
"Oh, right, I should remind you guys!"
"If everyone leaves the Anywhere Door, then the Anywhere Door will close immediately."
"All I have right now is a tiny door, about the size of my palm. Come on over if you dare!"
After finishing speaking, Rorschach tossed the Den Den Mushi into a corner and then leisurely lay down on a recliner.
Would Rorschach really dare to let Sengoku and the others stay there? The answer is no.
Luo Xia then gently placed his arm on the warship, and the icy power on his arm quickly penetrated the sea surface. Almost instantly, a thick layer of ice formed on the entire sea surface.
"Hey, Vice Admiral Momonga, Fleet Admiral Sengoku is coming to beat you up, you better watch out!"
"I'll pin all the blame on you, so remember not to mention me when you get beaten up!"
Rorschach spoke in a very serious tone, which, to an outsider, might have made it seem as if he were discussing something important with the flying squirrel.
"No, no, Marshal Sengoku won't believe it!"
"It's alright, we'll talk about it when he gets here!"
About two minutes later, two old men appeared on the sea, one of whom was carrying the Anywhere Door, and the other was following behind him slowly.
"Fleet Admiral Sengoku, Vice Admiral Garp!"
As soon as the two boarded the ship, they heard the marines on board greeting them.
Luo Xia glanced at the newcomer and slowly sat up.
Luo Xia rubbed his hands together and laughed, "Marshal, old man, what brings you here?"
When Garp saw the bits of beard on the ground, he grinned and immediately put his arm around Rorschach's shoulder, laughing, "Hahaha, I never expected you to make Sengoku's beard look like that!"
"As expected of the one I picked up, not bad, not bad!"
Of all those present, only Sengoku's face was ashen.
However, he wasn't there to question Luo Xia; he was there to confirm whether the kid had already learned how to synthesize the Anywhere Door.
"You brat, I'm not here to blame you today!"
Luo Xia glanced at the beard he had just scratched, and asked with a strange look, "So what are you here for?"
"They can't be here to supervise us, can they?"
Sengoku's face darkened, and he pointed to the pink, palm-sized Anywhere Door that Luo Xia had been holding.
"Have you already invented the Anywhere Door, kid?"
Luo Xia followed Sengoku's gaze and saw the Anywhere Door he had just created in his palm.
Luo Xia shook his head. "Not yet, we can only make ones the size of a palm."
"The Anywhere Door can only be used to steal things now, it can't do anything else!"
Just as Luo Xia was about to explain further, a mechanical voice sounded in his mind: [Ding—God-level choice triggered.]
[Choose option one: Kneel down and beg for mercy from the Warring States Marshal, seeking his forgiveness. The reward is a swift and powerful sword, Snowdrift.]
[Option Two: Be defiant and say, "It's just a tuft of beard! When I grow a full beard, Marshal, I'll let you pluck a handful off! Reward: Advanced Armament Haki, Advanced Observation Haki!"]
Luo Xia glanced at the dark-faced Sengoku and whispered to himself, "I choose two, I choose two!"
[Ding—Current task progress 0%.]
