One Piece: The Max-Level Blacksmith of Marineford

Ryder's gaze shifted from the Ice Green Sword to the Iron Hammer in the formation.

That soul-piercing gaze sent a shiver down Iron Hammer's spine.

"A Devil Fruit ability... that's really amazing..."

A crimson light flickered in Ryder's eyes.

With his exceptional Observation Haki, Red Earl is able to read people's minds—a skill he excels at.

"Hey, you old thief in the red cotton-padded jacket, it's very impolite of you to spy on others like that, you know?"

Iron Hammer unleashed his Observation Haki with great displeasure. Although it couldn't compete with top-tier Observation Haki like Ryder's, it still had some effect.

Not to mention that Ryder's physical condition is at its lowest point, and he's also wearing handcuffs made of sea stone.

"Hehehe, not bad kid, I'll remember you."

The Red Earl, having withdrawn his gaze, fell silent.

Iron Hammer was speechless upon hearing this, thinking to himself:

Please, it was clearly old man Kong who defeated you, why are you remembering me?

Even if you come out of Impel Down in the future, by then I'll already be the Minister of Logistics. I'll just stay in Naval Headquarters. I don't believe you old devil can come and chop me up!

The old man glared at him fiercely.

"Warring States, how's the preparation I asked you to do?"

Zhan Guo nodded upon hearing this.

"Everything is ready. The press conference can be held tomorrow!"

Seeing this, the old man nodded in satisfaction.

"Kap, you'll be in charge of guarding Ryder for now. After the press conference tomorrow, take him to Impel Down."

Garp: ....I didn't get to do anything, and now I'm a jailer?

But since it was old man Kong who spoke, Garp had no choice but to comply.

After dealing with Ryder's matter, Old Man Kong dragged his injured body to Iron Hammer.

"Iron Hammer, thanks to you this time. Without this sword, I don't think I could have defeated him."

Iron Hammer watched as the old man Kong handed over the Ice Green Sword and took it without hesitation.

"Tch, you're just lucky."

"Anything else? If not, I'm going to forge iron."

"Old man from the Warring States period, don't forget your promise to me to patrol two fewer sea areas!"

Seeing Iron Hammer's smug look, Sengoku gritted his teeth in anger, while Vice Admiral Tsuru shook his head helplessly.

The officers and soldiers watched this scene without daring to breathe.

"Haha, don't worry, you'll be attending tomorrow's press conference too."

Hammer: ? ? ?

"Why would I participate?"

The old man smiled mysteriously, then said something that instantly froze Iron Hammer.

"When I was fighting Ryder, I saw seagulls in the sky, and they were even carrying backpacks."

"Do you think that bastard Morgans might expose the Ice Green Sword? Even if you don't come out, Morgans will still be able to dig you out."

"So, Hammer, tell me, will you stand up openly and honestly tomorrow, or will you be subjected to Morgans' exaggerated and nonsensical descriptions?"

Iron Hammer felt like the whole world had turned gray.

No way! How could you two top-tier powerhouses of the high seas let a mere newsbird capture this?!

It's that big mouth Morgans is talking about!

Seeing the furious Sengoku with his hammer, his mood instantly improved, and he casually added:

“Air Marshal is right. I’ve contacted Morgans. If I hadn’t temporarily suppressed him in the name of the World Government, your news would have been all over the place by now.”

Hammer: Oh my god! I'm going to die!

My life is over!

In a daze, the press conference proceeded as scheduled.

Looking at the swarm of news reporters, Hammer was completely bewildered.

Even his ascension to the throne was orchestrated by the Warring States period.

The system crashed completely, and the person's face turned deathly pale.

If we're talking about the most developed industry in the One Piece world, what is it?

That must be the news industry.

The press conference in the morning was broadcast to news outlets all over the world by the afternoon.

[The Navy Commander-in-Chief defeats the great pirate Baron Redfield!]

[The Navy's new generation of forging masters, Rear Admiral Iron Hammer, forged the renowned sword Ice Blue, adding another blade to the ranks of the Supreme Grade Swords?]

[According to rumors, Ornn, the creator of the invisibility hat and X-ray glasses, is Iron Hammer?]

Does the Navy's high-profile exposure of its new generation indicate a larger plan?

Suddenly, the hammer became the subject of discussion worldwide.

This instantly plunged Iron Hammer, who was determined to retire and live a long life, into a state of social stagnation.

He locked himself on the Warhammer, refusing to see anyone.

New world.

The Oro Jackson.

"First Mate Raleigh! Quick, look at the news!"

"Red Earl Baron Redfield has been defeated! And the navy officer who caused the natural disaster is in the news!"

Bucky, who had recovered from being struck by lightning, held a newspaper and shouted in terror.

Upon hearing this, Rayleigh grabbed the newspaper, read it carefully, and then his expression turned serious.

"That kid, a forging genius?"

"Rayleigh! Let me see! Wow, this little Marine brat forged a Supreme Grade Sword? Really?"

Unlike Rayleigh's seriousness, Roger remained carefree and oblivious.

"Roger! You bastard, give me the newspaper!"

The Golden Lion's territory.

"Boss, Baron Redfield has been defeated!"

"Huh? That old devil lost too? What a disgrace!"

"Also, boss, the Navy has dropped a bombshell: a rear admiral has forged a supreme grade sword! And it seems he's also forged quite a few other strange and unusual things."

"What? Let me see it!"

Shiki the Golden Lion looked at the newspaper, his face growing increasingly grim, until finally he tore it to shreds.

"So, there's a high chance that the ship that brought about the natural disaster during the last raid on Roger was also the work of that bastard Iron Hammer?"

"Well done! Navy! Well done! Iron Hammer, huh! I'll remember you!"

Holy Land, Marie Gioia.

"Dongtali, haven't you found out what I asked you to investigate yet?"

“Reporting to Your Excellency Saint Rozwald, I was just about to report this matter to you.”

"Oh? There's been news about the creator, Ornn?"

"Yes, this is today's news. It says that a master blacksmith named Iron Hammer has appeared in the Navy. He forged a famous sword that is comparable to the Supreme Grade Sword."

"What does this have to do with Orn? Hmm? Wintertari, do you think I've been too lenient with you?"

Upon hearing this, Dongta wiped the sweat from his brow and quickly said:

"I wouldn't dare. According to information from Morgans, Orn is very likely Iron Hammer, but he went to the Hydra club under a concealed identity."
