One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha

"SUPER—!!"

Amidst the ruins of the hotel, Franky struck that shameful signature pose.

Immediately afterwards, his steel-forged arms suddenly opened wide, palms facing each other.

"Try this! The rage of Carrera Corporation's strongest cyborg!!"

"Wind Cannon!!!!"

boom--------!!!!

A visible white shockwave of air roared out, accompanied by a deafening explosion.

This is no ordinary air cannon; its power is comparable to that of heavy artillery.

"Whoa!!"

Luffy instinctively leaped upwards, narrowly avoiding a head-on collision.

But the scene behind him was astonishing—

The wreckage of a massive pirate ship, moored in an abandoned port, crumbled and shattered instantly under the shockwave, turning into a rain of wood chips.

"Wow...that's incredibly powerful!"

Luffy landed on a rooftop in the distance, staring in shock at the pervert in his briefs:

"What's this guy's structure? Is he a robot? How can he expel air from his body?"

"Never mind! He's not our target right now!"

Luffy remembered being framed, and his eyes hardened again.

Using the momentum of his fall, he kicked his right leg high into the sky, stretching it for dozens of meters.

"Rubber rubber - Tomahawk!!"

The enormous foot fell like a meteorite, shattering the ground beneath Franky's feet and kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Now's the time! Let's go! To Shipyard One to see Uncle Iceberg!"

Taking advantage of the moment when Franky was blocked by the smoke and dust, Luffy called to Zoro, Nami, and Victor, and rushed towards Shipyard No. 1 in the city center without looking back.

……

Water City, Dock Number One.

When the Straw Hat crew arrived at the gate, panting, they were not greeted with an opportunity for explanation.

Instead, it was hundreds of angry boatmen armed with saws, hammers, and muskets.

"That's them! The Straw Hat Crew!"

"The murderer who killed Mr. Iceberg dares to come back!"

Leading the group were several of Carrera's foremen—Barry, who operated the ropes; Lulu, who always had her hair sticking up; and the burly Thaleston.

"Surround them! Don't let them escape!"

Barry roared, and hundreds of strong boatmen instantly formed an impenetrable encirclement, completely surrounding the four men.

His murderous gaze seemed to want to devour these pirates alive.

"Wait a minute! Everyone, listen to me!"

Luffy stood in the center of the encirclement and loudly defended himself:

"We didn't kill Uncle Iceberg! We've been framed!"

"If it were for money or hatred, we would have no reason to do this!"

"Let me see Uncle Iceberg! I have something to ask him in person!"

However, the angry crowd refused to listen to any explanation.

Behind the crowd, in front of that luxurious office building.

Wearing a black suit, Lucci stood with his hands in his pockets, expressionless, blocking Luffy's path.

On the rooftop behind him, the long-nosed Kaku was crouching on a beam, looking down at the battlefield and blocking the airspace.

"Coo-coo, a murderer is a murderer, there's no need to see Mr. Iceberg," Hadori, the pigeon on Lucci's shoulder, squawked. "Just surrender obediently."

"Damn it... since it doesn't make sense..."

Zoro drew his three swords, his eyes flashing with a fierce light: "Then I'll have to force my way through."

"Zoro! Don't hurt anyone!" Nami anxiously warned.

"Know!"

A chaotic battle erupted instantly.

"Dual Sword Style: Rhinoceros Return!"

Zoro transformed into a whirlwind, striking the shipwrights' weapons with the back of his sword, repelling wave after wave of the charging crowd.

Luffy was entangled by Barry's life-like ropes.

"Heavy Coil!" Barry's rope coiled like a venomous snake, attempting to bind Luffy's hands and feet.

The scene was chaotic.

However, amidst the clamor of the battlefield, one person remained unusually quiet.

Victor.

He did not draw his sword, nor did he pay any attention to the boatmen around him who were waving hammers at him.

A red light quietly emerged in his deep black eyes, and three tomoe slowly rotated.

With the Sharingan's insight, the dynamics of the entire battlefield were slowed down countless times.

Victor's gaze pierced through the layers of people, ignoring Barry and Lucci.

Ultimately, they focused their attention on a seemingly harmless man on the outermost edge of the encirclement.

Bruno, the bar owner with the horn-like haircut.

Bruno was mingling in the crowd, pretending to be both angry and afraid.

But in Victor's eyes, this man posed an even greater threat than Lucci.

"The Door-Door Fruit..."

A resolute killing intent flashed in Viktor's eyes.

"That's the most troublesome ability in CP9. As long as he's there, Robin can be teleported away through the door at any time."

"This door must be closed here... forever."

There were no signs whatsoever.

"Whoosh!!"

Viktor's figure vanished instantly, leaving only a lingering shadow torn apart by the raging wind.

He was like a black lightning bolt, breaking straight through the crowd, his chilling killing intent already locked onto Bruno.

Bruno was startled when he saw Victor suddenly rushing towards him.

But outwardly, she still feigned a look of terror, stumbling backward:

"Whoa!! Help! Pirates are coming at me!!"

He tried to use his "commoner" status to get the surrounding boatmen to stop Victor.

"Stop! Don't hurt Bruno!" Several boatmen nearby immediately rushed over to protect the "kind bar owner."

But Viktor was too fast.

"Clang!"

The black sword was drawn.

The jet-black Armament Haki instantly wrapped around the blade, transforming into a deadly black light.

This stab went straight for Bruno's heart.

That was an absolutely lethal move, without any hesitation or holding back.

"This man... he really wants to kill me!"

Bruno's pupils contracted sharply.

In that instant, his instincts as a spy told him: if he continued to pretend, this knife would definitely pierce his heart!

In this fleeting moment between life and death.

Bruno slammed his feet into the ground, his muscles tensing to their limit and his blood rushing.

"Iron block!!!"

when--!!!

A deafening roar, loud enough to shatter eardrums, exploded in the noisy dock.

That wasn't the sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh, but the metallic clang of steel clashing violently against steel!

The loud noise instantly silenced the chaotic crowd.

Everyone stared wide-eyed at the scene before them, incredulous.

Viktor's black dagger, powerful enough to cut through steel, pierced Bruno's left chest.

Bruno's apron and clothes ripped instantly, revealing his well-defined muscles.

"this……"

Barry, who was locked in combat with Luffy, froze, and the surrounding shipwrights were dumbfounded.

A bar owner who is usually kind and friendly.

How could he possibly block the full-force attack of a pirate with a bounty of over 100 million with his chest?

"How is that possible..."

"Bruno...is his body made of steel?"

Victor maintained his thrusting stance, a cold, mocking smile playing on his lips.

"These are the innocent civilians you speak of?"

"Does an average bar owner have a body that's harder than steel?"

Victor's eyes flashed red as he stared at Bruno's gloomy face:

"Or is this... the 'Six Powers' that the World Government's lackeys are so proud of?"

Now that he had been exposed, Bruno no longer pretended to be honest and simple.

His eyes instantly turned cold, the eyes of a killing machine.

"I never expected... that a newcomer like you could see right through me."

Bruno's voice deepened:

"shave!"

Swish!

Bruno's figure vanished from the spot in an instant, so fast that even his afterimage was not visible.

The next second, he appeared out of thin air behind Viktor, his fingers pressed together like a spear, aimed straight at the back of Viktor's head:

"Now that we've been discovered, there's nothing we can do. For justice, die."

"Finger gun!!"

"Too slow."

Without turning his head, Viktor's Sharingan's dynamic vision had already captured that trajectory.

He turned the scabbard backward and held it upright.

"bite!!"

Bruno's fingers, long enough to pierce through a human body, slammed into the domineering scabbard, sparks flying everywhere.

The two engaged in a high-speed confrontation in the center of the dock.

For a moment, all that could be heard were the clanging sounds of collisions and the afterimages of the two people moving at high speed.

Ordinary boatmen couldn't see their movements at all; they could only see the constantly exploding air currents in the air.

"Damn... this guy's swordsmanship and domineering aura..."

After exchanging blows for several rounds, Bruno was greatly alarmed.

He discovered that he was completely at a disadvantage in physical combat; his opponent's red eyes seemed to be able to predict all his movements.

"We can't afford to get bogged down in this; we must get the information out first."

Bruno feinted, leaped backward, and pulled his hands sharply through the air.

"The Door - The Air Door!"

A green portal to another dimension slowly opened in the air.

Once he gets inside, no one can catch him.

"Trying to run away?"

Viktor's eyes sharpened: "Too late."

Just as Bruno was about to step into the air portal, Victor suddenly formed several complex hand seals with his left hand, and his chest bulged out.

The chakra was highly compressed at the throat, transforming into an extremely thin, high-pressure water jet.

"Water Release: Water Severing Wave!!"

call out----!!

A razor-sharp blade of water shot out from Victor's mouth, instantly slicing through the edge of the "air door" that Bruno was about to open.

"What?!"

Bruno was forced to withdraw his hand; otherwise, his arm would have been severed by the water blade.

The pause that lasted for just a moment.

Victor had already closed in.

His right hand was not holding a knife, but rather his palm was open, from which a blinding blue-white lightning burst forth.

"Zzzzzzzzz!!!"

It was a sharp sound, as if a thousand birds were chirping at the same time.

"Chidori!!!!"

Viktor's figure transformed into a bolt of lightning, piercing through space in that instant.

Bruno didn't even have time to activate the iron block again.

Or rather, ordinary iron blocks are simply no match for the high penetrating power of lightning release.

The two passed each other.

Time seemed to stand still.

Viktor stood with his back to Bruno, the lightning in his hand slowly dissipating, his pair of red Sharingan eyes appearing particularly eerie in the smoke and dust.

"Well……"

Bruno stood there, his eyes wide open, as if he wanted to say something.

But next second.

A thin line of blood appeared on his neck.

"Pfft—"

Fresh blood gushed out like a fountain.

Bruno's head, with its horned hair, slowly slid off his neck, and his body fell heavily into a pool of blood with a dull thud.

CP9 member, Door-Door Fruit user, Bruno—

The death has been confirmed.

[A major plot twist has been detected]

[Slaying CP9 core member: Bruno]

[Reward: 4000 Ninja Points]

A deathly silence enveloped Dock No. 1.

In front of the office building.

Rob Lucci, who had been expressionless the whole time, suddenly clenched his fist in his pocket.

on the roof.

Kaku's half-closed eyes snapped open, and his long nose and the corner of his mouth twitched.

A strong killing intent emanated from him.

They never imagined that their honest and unassuming companion, Bruno, would be killed in an instant by a rookie pirate.

And it was such a swift and decisive kill.

However, the thousands of unsuspecting boatmen around them saw a completely different scene.

They couldn't understand what "iron block" or "shave" meant, nor did they know anything about CP9.

All they saw was that the pirate had used cruel methods to kill a "warm and kind bar owner".

"Aaaaaaahhhhh!!"

Barry stared at Bruno lying in a pool of blood and let out a heart-wrenching roar:

"Bruno!!!"

His eyes instantly turned bloodshot as he pointed at Victor, his voice trembling with rage:

"Bastards!!! You actually killed Bruno!!! He was our comrade!!"

"Murderer!! Unforgivable!!"

"Kill them!! Avenge Bruno!!"

The enraged crowd completely lost control; what began as a simple arrest had now escalated into a relentless fight for revenge.

This time, the Straw Hat crew is truly in a situation where they can't clear their name at all.

Facing the thousands of furious boatmen charging at him, Victor expressionlessly wiped the blood off his sword and sheathed it.

He turned around and grabbed Luffy, who was still completely bewildered by the situation:

"Let's go, Luffy!"

"The objective has been achieved."

"But..." Luffy wanted to say something more.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Viktor gave him no chance to explain, pulled out several specially made smoke grenades from his pocket, and smashed them hard on the ground.

Thick purple smoke instantly filled the entire venue, obscuring everyone's vision.

"Cough cough cough! I can't see!"

"Stop them!"

Taking advantage of the chaos, Victor forcibly dragged Luffy, called out to Zoro and Nami, and used his Body Flicker Technique to smash through the dock's wall and disappear into the intricate alleyways.

……

On the run.

The four of them ran wildly through an empty back alley.

"Huff... huff..."

Luffy stopped and flung Viktor's hand away.

He lowered the brim of his hat, his voice filled with deep confusion and questioning:

"Victor!!"

"Why kill that horned man?!"

Luffy looked up, his eyes filled with complex emotions:

"Even if he is an enemy... is it necessary to kill him?"

"Everyone says he's a good person...but now we've really become murderers!"

Viktor stopped and turned around.

He looked at Luffy, and his red Sharingan eyes slowly faded, turning back into deep black.

"Luffy".

"He is a member of CP9, a lackey of the World Government."

"That man is a user of the 'Door-Door Fruit.' He can open doors anywhere, including in the air."

"If we don't kill him... when we go to rescue Robin, he only needs to open a door to move Robin away."

Victor stepped forward, placed his hands on Luffy's shoulders, and looked directly into the captain's eyes:

"I'm willing to bear the stigma of being a murderer for Robin's safety."

"And look at reality, Luffy."

"The real enemy... is that group of 'foremen' who have been lurking around us all along."

"The battle ahead... will be even more dangerous than facing an admiral."
