Chapter 54: Rescue Begins — Transformers, Roll Out, Motherf**kers!
Marineford — Marine Headquarters
The moment the final Admiral, Akainu, personally entered the fray,
on the second execution platform,
a blood-red slash suddenly lit up the sky!
Then,
a freshly severed head rolled off the platform.
"Nami, Robin — NOW!"
Rok had just beheaded the real execution guard beside him and barked the order.
The two women didn't hesitate.
They instantly pulled out the seastone keys "borrowed" from Saint Shalria and unlocked each other's cuffs.
At the same time,
every major player on the battlefield noticed the commotion on the second platform.
"ROK?! How the hell are you here, you bastard?!"
Fleet Admiral Sengoku nearly cracked his teeth, eyes wide with disbelief.
No matter how he looked at it, the criminal who committed the ultimate taboo actually dared to appear at Marineford — and at this exact moment?!
Did Rok not understand that Marineford right now was a sea of fire and blades for him?!
Besides Sengoku,
every other top-tier fighter spotted Rok too — reactions split cleanly by faction.
Garp just glanced over calmly, no intention of moving. After all, the kid was saving Luffy's crewmates.
Vice Admiral Tsuru wore a complicated expression. She and Zephyr had both seen limitless potential in Rok. She didn't blame him — she understood. She was only stunned by his guts and mourned the fate awaiting him. Today, after openly defying Headquarters like this, there was zero chance the Marines or World Government would let him leave alive. She genuinely pitied him — this was a death trap.
"Rok?! That useless Kake… he actually got taken out by a damn kid?!"
Admiral Akainu erupted in fury when he saw Rok.
Now it all made sense — Chaton's half-connected call earlier!
But a Vice Admiral Candidate losing to a brat?!
Momousagi had to be involved.
Akainu shot a venomous glare at Momousagi, who was standing on the sidelines doing absolutely nothing.
The Marines' justice was being stained by these traitors!
But internal purging would have to wait.
No proof yet — he couldn't touch another Admiral Candidate.
His killing intent locked onto Rok.
You showed your face? Then prepare to die.
"Borsalino, what the hell are you staring at?!"
Akainu roared at Kizaru when he saw Rok already leaping off the platform with the prisoners.
"Ohhh~ how troublesome~"
Kizaru sighed dramatically.
He had already put in work earlier… couldn't he get a break?
But fine — the kid had no self-awareness showing up here.
Shoom—
Just as Rok, Nami, and Robin jumped down, trying to vanish into the chaos,
a beam of light condensed right in front of them.
In that instant,
the hope that had just ignited in Nami and Robin's hearts was half-extinguished.
An Admiral!
Another damn Admiral!
Twice before, running into Admirals had nearly wiped the crew.
Terror flooded them.
They wanted to scream at Rok to leave them and run,
but he never gave them the chance.
The second Kizaru materialized,
Rok shoved both women downward with all his strength.
At the same time,
surrounded by hundreds of Marines,
a badass toy muscle truck suddenly appeared,
then instantly grew 100 times larger,
plowing through dozens of unlucky Marines who couldn't dodge in time — turning them into red paste.
Nami and Robin landed safely in the open-top cabin of the giant truck!
"Nami! Robin! Hold on tight — don't worry about me!"
"Optimus Prime — Transformers, ROLL THE FK OUT!!"**
Rok mentally commanded the toy-turned-mecha while facing Admiral Kizaru head-on.
Priority one: get the girls to safety.
Only then could he finish the mission and claim the system rewards.
"Oh my~ such a loyal man."
"But tell me, Rok, courageous as you are…"
"Have you ever been kicked at the speed of light?"
Kizaru completely ignored the escaping girls — not his prisoners, not his problem — and focused solely on Rok.
"No time for chit-chat, Admiral Kizaru!"
Rok had no idea how much water Kizaru would let slide for the Straw Hats,
but he sure as hell wasn't counting on it for himself.
Better to strike first!
One-Sword Style · Blood Moon Divine Evasion!
Facing the oppressive Admiral,
Rok unleashed the strongest slash he could currently produce!
A thin strand of Conqueror's Haki coiled around the blade.
The moment the blood-red crescent moon erupted,
the air screamed and space shuddered!
Not just Kizaru — shock flashed across his eyes, even a hint of panic!
The entire battlefield turned to look!
Even Hawkeye Mihawk, the World's Greatest Swordsman, narrowed his eyes in surprise.
What monstrous swordsmanship!
Besides that green-haired kid in the East Blue, another young monster with god-tier talent had appeared!
As nearly every top fighter stared in stunned silence,
the blood moon slash passed.
Golden light reformed.
Kizaru reappeared in front of Rok — only a tiny tear on his coat, nothing more.
At that moment,
countless powerhouses inwardly sighed in pity.
Such a young genius… about to fall at Marineford.
"What a terrifying slash, Rok."
"Now then…"
"Let me show you what it feels like to be kicked at the speed of light."
