One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha

Chapter 38 Uchiha's Summoning Beast, an Empty Box.

"Who are you calling an idiot with a long nose?!"

Upon hearing the extremely insulting term "long-nosed idiot," Usopp's blood boiled instantly, and he roared angrily at the sky.

"Coo coo coo! It's you!"

The black crow circling in the sky let out an unpleasant laugh.

Its human-like eyes swept over the crowd, and finally it began to call out names one by one with extreme arrogance.

"Straw hat monkey! Caterpillar! Moldy orange! And that smiling, cunning bastard!"

"This is Lord Clay's territory. You lowly crawling creatures, get out of here right now! Or don't blame Lord Clay for being impolite!"

"ha?!"

Veins popped out on everyone's foreheads in unison.

"Straw hat... monkey?!" Luffy's fist hardened.

"A green...caterpillar?! I'm going to cut it down!" Zoro's hand was on the hilt of his sword, his eyes filled with terror.

"Moldy...oranges?!" A demonic phantom seemed to appear behind Nami.

"A smiling bastard?" Victor narrowed his eyes, his smile widening.

Usopp was still angry, but when he looked back at his companions' expressions, which seemed to suggest they wanted to destroy the world, he instantly calmed down and swallowed.

"This bird... messed with the wrong person."

At this moment, Camon looked at the crow and said through gritted teeth:

"It's this one! A few years ago, this strange bird suddenly appeared on this island."

Taking advantage of its ability to fly, it seized the top of the pillar and claimed the treasure I was guarding for itself!

"Oh, it's a bird thief."

Luffy lowered the brim of his hat, obscuring his eyes, and his tone became serious.

"Ah, Uncle Camon, don't worry. I'll take care of this thief and get the treasure back for you!"

After saying that, Luffy took a few steps back, stretched his arms out behind him, and grabbed the top of the towering stone pillar.

"Rubber-Rocket!!"

"Whoosh!"

Luffy shot straight into the sky like a stone launched from a slingshot.

Clay, suspended in mid-air, showed a hint of surprise in his eyes. This monkey can fly?

"Hmph! You're courting death! Take this blow from Lord Clay!!"

Clay suddenly opened his sharp beak, took a deep breath, and let out an extremely piercing, high-pitched scream at Luffy who was flying towards him.

"Gah—!!!"

The tangible sound waves exploded in the air like ripples.

"Hmm!"

Luffy, who was the first to be hit, felt a sharp pain in his eardrums and his body froze in mid-air.

He was actually swept away by the powerful sound wave and slammed heavily back to the ground.

"Ah! My ears! I'm going deaf!!"

The crowd below immediately covered their ears, and Nami complained loudly, "That damn crow is so noisy! Its voice is awful!"

Viktor looked at the smug crow in the sky, his interest growing even stronger.

"This attack method... can not only speak, but also release sonic attacks."

"Did that crow eat a Devil Fruit?"

If that's the case, then this bird is extremely valuable.

"call."

Viktor's leg muscles were tense, and he caught Luffy the moment he landed, deflecting the impact.

Without pausing, he transformed into a black lightning bolt, speeding across the surface of the vertical stone pillar.

With a few quick leaps, he precisely stepped on the protruding stones and climbed to the top of the pillar in the blink of an eye.

The space at the top of the pillar wasn't large, and sure enough, five rusty treasure chests were neatly arranged there.

Next to the treasure chest, however, was a rather large bird's nest made of twigs and feathers, which was haphazardly built.

It seems this crow has truly made this its home.

"Huh?!"

Clay, who was about to continue his taunts, stared wide-eyed at Victor, who suddenly appeared in front of him, his jaw nearly dropping in astonishment.

"Why are you running so fast?! Are you a monkey?!"

Once it realized what was happening, it immediately opened its mouth wide, preparing to unleash the sonic attack again.

"Instantaneous Movement Technique"

Victor gave a cold laugh, naturally not giving it a chance to cast the spell.

With a flash, Victor appeared directly in front of Clay, his hand gripping Clay's open beak like an iron clamp, forcibly interrupting the spellcasting.

“Wuwu!”

Then, Victor used his arm to pull it down from the sky and slam it hard onto the hard rocky ground.

"Bang!"

"Gah—!"

Clay was so struck that he saw stars and felt like his bones were about to fall apart.

"Ouch...you damn reptile...I'm going to..."

"Take it!"

A sharp kunai, gleaming coldly, was deeply embedded in the rock next to its head, only 0.01 centimeters away.

Klein's arrogant words caught in his throat, and cold sweat poured down his back.

"Sir! Sir, spare my life!!"

Its attitude made a complete 180-degree turn.

"Take it!"

Another kunai was inserted into the other side of its head, shaving off a few black feathers.

Clay was so frightened that he kicked his legs and fell to the ground, trembling and shouting with tears in his eyes:

"Sir! I was wrong! I was really wrong! You can have this place!"

"I'm leaving right now! Please spare my life! I'm still young, I don't want to die!"

Victor reached out and grabbed it by the neck, lifting it up and turning its head toward the boxes.

"You ate what's in here?"

Clay dared not lie, nodding like a chick pecking at rice:

"Yes, sir! A few years ago, I happened to pass by here and saw a strange-looking fruit. I was so hungry at the time that I ate it..."

"Sir! Please forgive me! I'll never do it again!"

Sure enough.

Zoan type or Paramecia type?

Viktor thought to himself, his smile growing even more "kind."

"You can live if you want. Just get out of here, okay?"

"Leave? Does the old man mean... leave this place?" Clay was taken aback.

"Yes, come out to sea with me."

Klein's tiny, bean-like eyes darted around rapidly.

This guy wants to make his great Lord Clay a pet?

Are you kidding me!

It is a noble "sky overlord", how could it submit to humans who can only crawl!

But this human is too powerful. A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle... I'll agree for now and find a chance to escape once we get to the sea!

Thinking of this, Clay immediately put on a fawning expression:

"Gurgle, gurgle! Good sir! It's an honor for Clay to follow a strongman like you!"

[Ding! A special creature has been detected expressing a willingness to submit.]

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained an exclusive summon beast (no need to exchange): Echoing Crow.]

[Reward: 500 Ninja Points]

Victor released his grip with satisfaction.

"Huff, huff..." Clay immediately collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, feeling as if he had just walked through the gates of hell.

Just then, a rubber arm stretched out, and Luffy finally climbed up.

"Phew... Victor, I'm here! Huh? Is the battle over?"

Luffy stared blankly at the crow lying on the ground.

"What? The battle's over? You straw-hatted monkey! Want to fight?!"

Upon seeing Luffy, Clay instantly regained his arrogant demeanor.

"Ugh, what an ugly crow," Luffy commented honestly, picking his nose.

"Giggle?! Who are you calling ugly?!"

Clay was instantly enraged and flapped his wings, about to fly towards Luffy's straw hat that had been attacked.

"Luffy".

Victor ignored the silly bird and walked to the five treasure chests, opening them one by one.

Empty.

He sighed, handed the five empty boxes to Luffy, and said softly:

"The box is empty."

Luffy paused for a moment, then casually flung Clay away as he charged at him.

He took the few light boxes, looked into Viktor's eyes, and remained silent for a few seconds.

"The box is empty... Uncle Camon..."

Luffy muttered to himself, then looked up and gave Viktor a bright smile.

"Then let's 'steal' it! Hehehe!"

Viktor looked at that familiar smile and a smile also appeared on his lips.

The two arrived at the edge of the pillar.

Luffy took a deep breath and shouted with all his might towards the expectant green box man below:

"Uncle Camon!! Your treasure is ours now!!"

"Come and take it if you want it! Wahahaha!!"

below.

The crowd, who had been looking forward to this, froze instantly.

"Huh?! Luffy!! What nonsense are you talking about?!" Nami exclaimed incredulously, "That's something Uncle Camon has been guarding for twenty years!!"

"Yeah, Luffy is so despicable!" Usopp also accused him indignantly.

However, Camon was not as angry as they were.

He looked up at the straw-hatted boy with clear eyes atop the pillar.

He naturally couldn't believe that someone with such a pure dream would do something so treacherous.

If it wasn't for embezzlement, then there's only one possible outcome...

Camon's body trembled, and two streams of hot tears flowed down his weathered face.

"Straw Hat Boy...you're a good person!"

"Although...although I have had such a hypothesis over the past twenty years, I dare not think about it."

"I could only desperately deceive myself into believing there was treasure there, just to keep myself alive..."

"Straw Hat Boy! It's empty inside, isn't it! Waaaaah..."

As he spoke, the old pirate who had held firm for twenty years finally let down his guard and burst into tears like a child.

On top of the column.

"Huh? Were we exposed?"

Luffy scratched his head, a little embarrassed. "Looks like I'm not suited to playing a villain."

"Let's go down, Luffy."

Victor patted him on the shoulder, his eyes softening.

……

The scene changes.

At this moment, the sun was setting, and the sea was dyed a magnificent red glow.

On the coast.

"Sir, are you really going to stay here? Aren't you coming with us?"

Luffy sat on the ship's railing, looking at Camon on the shore, and asked.

Camon wiped away his tears, a relaxed smile appearing on his face like never before.

"Yes, Straw Hat Boy. Although there's no more treasure, I've discovered that I have other, more important things to protect."

He turned his head and looked at the rare beasts surrounding him, his eyes gentle:

"I've waited with these guys for 20 years, they're practically family. I can't live without them."

"After learning that there was no treasure, although I was a little disappointed, I felt true freedom for the first time."

"That heavy shackle is gone, and now I can live the life I want."

Upon hearing this, everyone on the ship smiled.

"Hahaha! Really? What a pity! I was thinking of inviting you to be my crewmate!" Luffy said with a big laugh.

"Are these rare animals the most important treasure?"

Viktor stood to the side and nodded slightly.

Perhaps this is the best ending for him.

"By the way, this Usopp... no, this crow, is a bit chubby."

Nami stood beside Viktor, curiously reaching out to touch Clay, who was now obediently perched on Viktor's shoulder.

"Gurgle, gurgle! What did you say?! You moldy orange-headed brat! I'm strong! I'm strong!"

Although Clay didn't dare move, he remained defiant, yelling at Nami, "Believe it or not, I'll peck you..."

"Hmm?" Victor turned his head and glanced at him.

"Uh... I mean, I really should lose some weight!" Clay immediately admitted defeat.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Seeing this cowardly bird that bullies the weak and fears the strong, everyone burst into laughter.

The Going Merry slowly set sail.

Goodbye, Uncle Camon!!

Luffy stood at the stern of the ship, waving his arms vigorously.

On the shore, Camon watched the sailboat gradually disappear into the distance, and tears streamed down his face once again.

"Goodbye, pirates! Goodbye, Straw Hat Luffy!"

"Keep moving forward with my dream! You will definitely find it! The legendary One Piece!!"

"Go for it, Straw Hat Boy!!"

Under the setting sun, the shouts of the old man and the young man, the boat and the shore, seemed to become the most moving melody on this vast sea.
