Starting with One Piece, a Multiverse Simulation

"You wiped out the One-Eyed Pirates, so now I have nowhere to go but to rely on you."

Robin's almost absurd logic left Wood and Ruth speechless. It was the first time they'd ever seen someone hitch a ride on a boat so brazenly...

There are reasons why Robin dares to be so fearless and arrogant.

Although she hadn't known them for long, she could sense that Wood and his crew were different from other pirates; they were good people.

Not only did Wood recognize his benefactor Salong, but his actions on Bird Island also deeply moved Robin.

Although she knew her actions would cause trouble for Wood and his group, Robin ultimately chose to do it anyway.

Because her intuition told her that if she missed this opportunity, she would definitely regret it later!

Robin also knew that even if she secretly boarded the ship, Wood wouldn't do anything to her in the end, which was why she was so fearless.

Happiness is something you have to strive for yourself, and Robin, who has been wandering the seas for many years, deeply agrees with this.

Rather than continuing to parasitize other pirate crews whose origins are unknown, Robin prefers to believe that Wood is the "true ally" that Saul spoke of.

Chapter 140 The Final Naming of the Pirate Crew

As it turned out, Robin's prediction was entirely correct. Despite her rather arrogant behavior, Wood seemed to show her special leniency.

After letting out a huge sigh, all he could say was that he would kick Robin off the ship once they reached the next island.

However, Robin found such words to be utterly intimidating. Through her previous probing and what she had seen and heard on Bird Island, Robin had already gained a basic understanding of what kind of person Wood was.

Not only is he a good person, but he is also easily moved to tears and inexplicably forgiving of himself. Even when he took his private room, he didn't blame himself too much.

To be honest, Robin felt a little guilty for bullying such a kind-hearted person, but she had no choice. She wanted to stay in Wood's pirate crew, even if it meant begging and pleading.

Compared to my experiences at sea over the past few years, what is this little bit of experience?

Since Wood really couldn't do anything about Robin and couldn't just throw her off his ship, he ultimately decided to ignore her for the time being and started thinking about a name for his pirate crew.

Wood had hoped that brainstorming would solve the problem, but despite the many suggestions from Ruth and others, he found it difficult to even mention the names of those people.

A pirate crew's name is a matter of face; after all, when fighting with someone important, you'll have to announce your crew's name.

"Hello everyone, I'm Zha Zha De, the captain of the Emperor Pirates. If you're a brother, then..."

No, no, Wood would probably die on the spot if he just thought about mentioning names like the Emperor Pirates or the Justice Pirates in the future.

The names Robin came up with, while better than Ruth and the others, were all dark and did not suit their bright and noble image.

Although he was a pirate, Wood didn't want to go down the villain route, and pirate crews with names like that usually don't last more than a few episodes.

Pirates on the high seas generally lack formal education, and their crews are usually named after the characteristics of their captain.

For example, the Whitebeard Pirates, the Red-Haired Pirates, and the Straw Hat Pirates.

What are Wood's own characteristics? After thinking it over, Wood felt that only the word "handsome" perfectly matched his persona.

So, calling them the "Handsome Pirates"? That's way too much of a rumor. Wood's worried they'll be killed before they even make a name for themselves...

"I've decided, our pirate crew will be called the 'Renata Pirates'."

Hearing Wood's sudden and unexpected words, Ruth and the others were obviously stunned for a moment. After they realized what he meant, they felt that their captain's naming skills were indeed not very good.

The Renata Pirates? That name is so hard to pronounce, and it even sounds like a person's name?

Who is Renata? If a pirate crew is to be named after a person, why not call it the Wood Pirates?

"Renata is Latin... well, in an ancient language, it means rebirth and new life."

We used to be in the navy, but now our identity has undergone a complete transformation, so naming it "Rebirth and Resurrection" is most fitting.

As for why they decided on this name, there was another reason that Ruth and the others didn't know.

That is, every time Wood conducts a simulation of life in multiple worlds, he will start a new life in another world.

For Wood, isn't this also a rebirth and a new beginning? Being able to start a new life in countless worlds is probably Wood's most prominent characteristic.

After hearing Wood's explanation, Ruth and the others' eyes lit up, and they felt that the name of the pirate crew was indeed suitable for them.

However, they felt that "Renata Pirates" was too awful and difficult to pronounce, so they suggested that Wood should just call himself "Nirvana Pirates".

Based on the principle of majority rule and with Robin's strong support, Ruth and his crew quickly began calling themselves the "Nirvana Pirates".

As for the "Renata Pirates," who originally wanted to show off their foreign language skills and demonstrate their excellent cultural literacy, they were quickly forgotten by Russ and his group of roughnecks.

Once the name of the pirate crew is decided, the name of the ship, while secondary, must also be decided.

Wood originally intended to name the ship "Tristine" to commemorate his first experience in another world.

However, before Wood could even voice his thoughts, the ship had already been given the resounding name "Dark Pill".

The minority submits to the majority. In order to thank Robin for her support in naming their pirate crew, Russ and his crew reciprocated by supporting Robin in return.

Wood was puzzled. Ruth and the others had previously been somewhat resistant to Robin's identity as the "son of the devil," but in a short period of time, Robin had managed to turn Ruth and his group of roughnecks into his allies through some small actions.

Even Wood didn't know what methods Robin had used to make Ruth, who was afraid of Wood, speak up for him.

This suggests that since Robin witnessed the formation of their pirate crew and participated in it, she should be considered a member of their crew.

And Wood's previous proposal was too heartless. Robin was still a young girl. How was she supposed to live on an island all alone?

Wood wanted to say that Ruth and the others were overthinking things; if it were an ordinary girl, they really wouldn't be able to survive doing this.

However, the term "ordinary girl" definitely does not include Robin.

Undeniably, compared to the other members of the Straw Hat Pirates, Robin's childhood was the most tragic, but if possible, Wood really didn't want to interfere with her original upbringing.

"Captain, what should we do next? Should we continue towards the next treasure location?"

Seeing that Wood remained silent about the matter of Robin's fate, Ruth also cleverly changed the subject.

They chose to speak up for Robin not only because they thought Robin was smart and likable, but also because they could see that Wood's attitude towards Robin was different from that towards others.

"No, let's put the treasure hunt aside for now and head to the naval branch stationed in the nearby waters."

"I see. So, Captain, you plan to collect the Navy's bounty on One-Eyed Bebar's body first?"

The highly anticipated treasure only yielded nearly ten million Berries, while the bounty on the one-eyed dragon Bebar was a staggering twenty-five million. Ruth also felt it was better to collect the bounty first.

Moreover, the treasure won't run away, but the corpses will rot if left there too long, and it wouldn't be good if the Navy denied responsibility.

"No, I threw the body of One-Eyed Bebarat on Bird Island as a way for the townspeople to pay tribute to the dead."

Ruth was stunned when he heard what Wood said. Although they hadn't known each other for long, Ruth knew that his captain loved money more than anything. And he was just going to throw away 2500 million Berries worth of Babbar's head.

Chapter 141 Wood: Go and take down the naval branch!

"2500 million peles is a lot, but there are some things that are more important than peles."

Besides, we've already acquired a ship this time, so we can postpone the new ship project for now.

Ruth was taken aback by what Wood said, then looked at Wood with a serious expression, as if she were seeing him in a new light.

Wood's current actions, coupled with what he did on Asuka Island, have left Ruth puzzled as to why Wood would choose to betray the Navy.

Without a doubt, Wood is absolutely righteous, a fact that Ruth and the others have been able to confirm with 100% certainty after their interactions over this period of time.

Wood, who is inherently righteous and has mentors like Admiral Zephyr and friends like Major General Gion, should have a bright future. So why would he do something as foolish as releasing the prisoners from Impel Down?

At first, Ruth thought Wood was after money, since that fit Wood's character perfectly.

However, Ruth discovered something amiss when Wood left the one-eyed dragon Bebar's corpse on Bird Island.

Admittedly, Wood is greedy, but Ruth discovered that Wood has his own bottom line.

Based solely on the fact that Wood was willing to forgo the bounty on One-Eyed Bebarr in order to let the souls of the dead on Bird Island rest in peace, Ruth judged that Wood would not release criminals for the sake of these so-called treasures.

There must be a secret behind Major Wood's betrayal of the Navy!

Perhaps Lieutenant Commander Wood was disillusioned with certain actions of the Navy, or perhaps he was framed by some powerful figures.

Ruth let her imagination run wild, but she didn't ask Wood for his reasons.

He believed that Wood hadn't confessed to them because they weren't yet trusted enough by him.

However, through this incident, Ruth now knows at least that they did not follow the wrong people.

Even though they became pirates, they were still a group of pirates with a heart full of justice!

"Captain, since the one-eyed dragon Babart, who has a bounty on his head, is already on Asuka Island, what's the point of us going to the Marine branch?"

When Ruth asked that question, he already had a general idea of ​​what was going on in his mind, but he still wanted to confirm whether what Wood wanted to do was what he was thinking.

"Our pirate crew has only been established for a short time. If we want to make a name for ourselves quickly, we naturally need to do some big things."

So I plan to attack the naval branch in the nearby waters. If we can take down the captain stationed there, I think our pirate crew will quickly become famous in this area, right?

Ruth was stunned when he heard Wood's plan. He had thought that Wood only intended to rescue the old mayor's son who had been arrested.

But he never expected that Wood wasn't planning to save people, but rather to take everything down with him!

"Attack the local naval branch? But our pirate crew only has about ten people left..."

Although they are just naval branches, as a righteous faction capable of stabilizing a region, each naval branch has at least one naval captain and a basic configuration of several thousand naval soldiers.

Unlike the hapless tactics of the "One-Eyed Pirates," even the least skilled soldiers in the Marine branch have warships and cannons.

With just over ten people, attacking a naval branch would be nothing short of suicide!
