One Piece: Initially tricked into joining the Marines by Garp

Chapter 224 Blood Phoenix: You insulted me? You actually insulted me as someone from the World Gover

Seeing Ace's expression, Rorschach smiled helplessly and said, "However, I sensed a member of the Blackbeard Pirates in this birdcage. Perhaps you could capture him alive or take care of him."

Ace raised an eyebrow, his killing intent instantly erupting, and his expression turned utterly cold. "The Blackbeard Pirates? Very well!" With that, Ace ignited flames in his hands and strode towards the birdcage.

At this point, Garp asked, "Where did you get this information from, kid?"

"Why didn't I sense anything?"

"You're not just trying to fool him, are you?"

Rorschach shrugged, looking completely innocent. "Vice Admiral Garp, do I look like the kind of person who would just lie to people? My Observation Haki is very sharp. I definitely sensed it just now. It's definitely a member of the Blackbeard Pirates." Garp stroked his chin, half-believing, half-doubting.

Just then, a burst of maniacal laughter came from inside the birdcage, "Hahahaha, Revolutionary Army Chief of Staff Sabo, today I'm going to steal the Flame-Flame Fruit from your body. Our captain specifically investigated and found that the Flame-Flame Fruit was in Dressrosa, but I didn't expect to be too late and let you get it."

"But it's okay, we can just take the Flame-Flame Fruit out of your body."

"Bajs was radiating arrogance and overbearing arrogance, which made Sabo on the opposite side sneer, 'You? You're doomed!'"

Hearing this from a short distance away, Ace was immediately enraged. "Burgess? He's actually eyeing my brother's abilities!"

Burgess paused, then turned to look. Ace was flying toward him, his fiery wings billowing behind him.

Upon seeing Ace for the first time, a hint of surprise flashed in Burgess's eyes. Although he didn't know who was flying towards him, he was certain that Ace's abilities were a level above Sabo's.

Burgess laughed wildly, "Hahahaha, I never expected to get two top-tier Devil Fruits today! Today is truly my lucky day!"

Ace instantly flew in front of Burgess and unleashed a fiery punch, shouting, "Dream on! Today is your death day!"

Bages quickly dodged to the side, but his cheek was still burned by the flames.

"Ouch!" he roared, his arm muscles bulging as he retaliated against Ace. Sabo joined the fray, and the two brothers worked together seamlessly, leaving Burgess overwhelmed.

Knowing that continuing the fight would inevitably lead to defeat, Burgess pulled out a smoke grenade and threw it on the ground, intending to escape while the thick smoke filled the air.

However, Ace was prepared. He quickly flapped his wings to disperse the smoke and kicked Burgess in the back. Burgess fell forward, and as he struggled to get up, he found himself trapped in Ace's flames.

"You're not leaving here alive today," Ace said coldly.

"Besides, not just anyone can escape my fiery cage!"

Burgess was terrified and kept begging for mercy. But Ace was unmoved; he had already learned from Blackbeard's experience.

However, just as he was about to deliver the final blow, Ace suddenly remembered what his boss had told him before leaving: "Take him alive!"

Thinking of this, Ace instantly dissipated the flames in his hand, while the fire on the fire cage that trapped Bages became even more intense.

"This will also prevent this guy from escaping."

Meanwhile, outside the birdcage, Rorschach's lips curled into a slight smile, and he held in his hands seastone handcuffs and chains made of seastone.

"Blood Phoenix, take it!" Luo Xia threw the pile of Seastone in his hand directly at Blood Phoenix.

As soon as Blood Phoenix turned her head, she used all her speed to retreat quickly, barely managing to dodge the attack.

Rorschach frowned and said speechlessly, "All I asked you to do was deliver the Seastone handcuffs and chains to Ace. Why are you running away?"

Blood Phoenix patted her ample chest speechlessly and said, "You stinky boss, I'm a Devil Fruit user. You...you threw Seastone at me, are you trying to kill me on the spot?"

Rorschach was a little confused when he heard this. He scratched his head and said, "You ate a genuine Devil Fruit?"

Blood Phoenix snorted coldly, "Otherwise what? I dug that fruit out of the ground myself; it was a real struggle to find it!"

At that moment, Zhiyuan walked over and slapped Luo Xia on the back of the head, "Idiot, do you think Blood Phoenix is ​​like you?"

"She's afraid of seawater!"

Rorschach scratched his head. "Oh, I see! Then you're considered weak among the World Government members. I remember once some World Government bastard yelled at me, and I just threw him into the sea."

Upon hearing this, Blood Phoenix immediately retorted, "You damned Rorschach, you're the one who works for the World Government! Your entire G5 branch is one!"

Perhaps Garp couldn't stand it anymore, or perhaps he was afraid the two would fight, so he quickly walked over to Rorschach and said, "You brat, this girl isn't one of those bastards from the World Government. Are you confused?"

"When he joined, Sengoku gave me some information that he wasn't from the World Government," Garp sighed helplessly.

Luo Xia's lips twitched. He looked at Xue Feng again. Her little face was puffed up, as if she had been bullied. But if she was really angry, she should have taken action.

Luo Xia coughed twice, "Ahem, well, I'll just deliver it myself, so... I won't trouble Blood Phoenix!"

As he spoke, Luo Xia pointed his palm at the sea stone on the ground, and those things immediately floated up.

Immediately afterwards, Rorschach snapped his fingers, and the next second he vanished from his spot, along with the Seastone and the chains made of it.

As soon as Luo Xia disappeared, Zhiyuan walked up to Xue Feng and put her arms around Xue Feng's, teasingly saying, "That's just how Luo Xia is. Sometimes he can be silly like just now. Xue Feng, don't mind him."

"He's just stupid!"

Hearing Zhiyuan's words of comfort, Xuefeng, who had been fuming, whispered, "If I weren't outmatched, I, Xuefeng, would have already gone up and beaten him up."

"Damn it, how dare they insult me!"

Gion was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "What did that guy say to you?"

"He called me a member of the World Government, how awful! I've decided to ignore him for an hour," Blood Phoenix said arrogantly.

"So you also hate those guys from the World Government?"

Blood Phoenix nodded. "Yes, my parents were killed by the Celestial Dragons, so I hate the World Government!"

Upon hearing about Xuefeng's ordeal, Gion gently patted her shoulder and comforted her, "Don't be sad. Those Celestial Dragons will get what they deserve sooner or later."

Meanwhile, Rorschach had already arrived at a circle of fire...
