One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha

"Who exactly are you?"

Luffy stared at "Satan" in front of him, his confusion growing more and more obvious.

But the other person didn't answer; they just stood there quietly, listening to the drumbeats coming from his chest.

Every time the drums of liberation sound, a subtle change appears in those eyes that have become unfamiliar.

A moment later, a voice completely different from Satan's finally rang out.

Calm, low-pitched, revealing little emotion.

"That familiar voice..."

"It actually started playing again."

Luffy frowned.

The other person didn't explain, but simply scanned his white hair, eyebrows, and the white flames surrounding his body, finally stopping on his ever-smiling face.

"It wasn't him."

Luffy was stunned for a moment: "What?"

"You are not Joy Boy."

Luffy was silent for two seconds, then shouted as if he could no longer contain himself:

"Ugh! How many times do I have to say it?!"

"I am Monkey D. Luffy!"

This time, it was Im who fell silent for a moment, and then the voice rang out again.

"Inheriting that fruit, yet not even knowing what they represent."

Luffy picked at his ear: "I don't understand."

Im: "..."

Luffy grinned.

"Anyway, I am who I am."

"Monkey D. Luffy, the man who will become the Pirate King!"

After he finished speaking, he had clearly lost interest in continuing the conversation. The ground beneath his feet suddenly turned rubber, and using the reaction force, he rushed directly in front of Im.

"So let's fight first and see what happens!"

A fist wreathed in Conqueror's Haki descended head-on.

boom!

This punch was devoid of any fancy moves; it struck Satan's head directly.

Im raised his forelegs to block, and Conqueror's Haki Black Lightning exploded in all directions.

For the first time, Satan's massive body was pushed backward from the front, and large sections of the ground beneath his feet shattered.

Luffy's eyes lit up immediately.

The second punch came from a completely different angle.

Im sidestepped, his fist grazing Luffy's face, but Luffy's arm suddenly bent in mid-air, looping around his body and striking back from behind.

boom!

Satan took a solid punch to the side of his face, and his massive body flew sideways.

Luffy caught up with him, laughing loudly.

But by the third punch, the situation began to change.

Luffy leaped into the sky, stepping on the rubbery ground, his body rapidly expanding, and a giant fist slammed down from the front.

Based on previous experience fighting Satan, the opponent would either dodge or rely on his immortality to withstand the attack.

But this time, Im made his move ahead of time.

boom!

The giant fist struck nothing, and the entire ground instantly collapsed.

Luffy was clearly taken aback for a moment.

In that instant, Satan's forelegs pierced through the dust and slammed into his side.

boom!

Luffy was blasted away head-on, his body tumbling several times in mid-air before grabbing a distant building and bouncing himself back up.

He paid no attention to his earlier injuries, and instead became even more excited.

A fist came from the front first, but at the same time, a leg suddenly stretched out from behind the body, taking a completely different attack route.

Im didn't even turn around; Satan's body simply turned slightly to the side.

Luffy's foot missed again.

This time, he finally realized something was wrong.

"Feed".

Im looked at him.

How did you know I was going to fight from here?

The other party simply replied calmly:

"Because there were people like you before."

Luffy blinked.

"You mean that Joey Boy?"

Im did not answer.

Luffy charged out again, and the ensuing clashes made this judgment increasingly clear.

When the ground becomes rubbery, Im will detach prematurely.

When Luffy grows to his giant size, Im doesn't engage in a pure power struggle with him.

When Luffy uses his surroundings to bounce off obstacles and change direction repeatedly, his opponent can always predict the true attack location before the final change of direction.

Another battlefield.

Viktor kept a portion of his attention on Luffy's side using his Rinnegan.

The Nine-Tails also noticed the problem.

"His Straw Hat Boy's moves were all figured out?"

Victor was just about to change positions, at least to get closer to the battlefield where Luffy was.

But Pitt, who had just recovered from the black flames, suddenly changed again.

The contract chains behind it suddenly lit up.

Clearly, Im, who descended to Beehive Island in Satan's body, can also issue orders directly to the other five elders through the contract.

The next moment, Pitt completely abandoned the attack.

The enormous sandworm suddenly lunged forward and wrapped its arms around one of Nine-Tailed Fox's tails.

With a backhand swipe of its claw, the nine-tailed fox shattered half of its body.

But Pit still didn't loosen his grip. While the black flames repaired his body, the remaining part of his body continued to wrap around the armored Susanoo.

Viktor's eyes instantly turned cold.

"Get out of here."

Susanoo's longsword fell head-on, cleaving Pitot completely in two from the center.

But the next second, the black flames reappeared.

On the other hand, Luffy suffered a real loss for the first time.

He grabbed Satan's body again, forcibly stretching him like rubber, preparing to use the elasticity to throw him away as before.

But this time, Im actually went forward with the pulling force.

Not only did they not resist, they used Luffy's own power to instantly shorten the distance.

Luffy's pupils suddenly contracted, but it was too late to change his movements.

puff!

The black flame-covered limbs pierced directly into the abdomen, causing a large amount of blood to spurt out.

Luffy flew backward, crashing into several rocks before finally coming to a stop.

thump.

thump.

The drums of liberation were still beating, but his breathing was noticeably heavier than before.

Im did not immediately give chase, but simply stood at a distance and watched him.

It seems they have already seen through Luffy's true state at this moment.

Since the start of the battle today, Luffy first clashed head-on with Garp, then participated in the attack on Blackbeard, then chased after Teach, and finally reactivated Gear Fifth to return to Beehive Island.

Even though Nika possesses incredibly amazing regenerative abilities, physical strength doesn't just appear out of thin air.

Im calmly said, "You're almost at your limit."

Luffy stood up from the ruins and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"It's still early."

"That's not what your heartbeat says."

Luffy lowered his head and listened attentively.

thump.

thump.

He quickly grinned again.

"Isn't it still jumping?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed out again.

boom!

In another head-on collision, Conqueror's Haki instantly swept across the entire battlefield.

Luffy was clearly panting, but the smile on his face never disappeared.

After being knocked away, he got back up, his wounds still bleeding, and the next attack was already underway.

Even in extremely dangerous situations, they might suddenly burst into laughter due to some absurd turn of events.

Im watched all of this in silence.

Deep in my memory, another equally repulsive figure seems to resurface.

The same drumbeat.

The same smile.

There is also that power that always draws others to your side without them even realizing it.

Im's gaze gradually turned cold.

"Even though you are not him."

"But this disgusting place—"

"They are exactly the same."

The distraction only lasted a moment, but Luffy seized the opportunity.

The ground beneath his feet suddenly turned into rubber, but instead of rushing directly towards Im, he used the elasticity to plunge headfirst into the depths of the ruins.

boom!

boom!

boom!

The body bounced repeatedly between the fractured rock layers and the building, each time faster than the last.

This time, even Im couldn't immediately determine the final direction of the attack.

The next second, Luffy suddenly burst out of the underground crack.

The fist did not grow to a gigantic size; instead, it was compressed to a normal size.

All of Conqueror's Haki was concentrated on the tip of his fist.

boom!

The punch landed squarely on Satan's face.

His entire face instantly deformed, and his massive body was blasted directly into the sky.

Luffy stood in the ruins, panting, but still grinning widely.

"You didn't expect that, did you!"

Satan's body crashed down heavily.

Its head had been severely damaged, and black flames rose again, beginning to repair its body.

This time, however, the recovery process was significantly more difficult than before.

Because after Im borrowed the body, this body was no longer just subjected to Luffy's attacks.

There's also the burden brought by Im's own power.

Viktor saw this from afar and quickly understood what was happening.

"I see."

Nine-Tails asked, "What?"

"He cannot stay in that body forever."

Satan is merely a vessel; even if it allows Im to descend through the contract, there is still a true limit to its capacity.

Once the force exceeds a certain range, the container itself will also collapse.

Therefore, Im must end the battle as soon as possible.

Sure enough, the next moment.

The black flames surrounding Satan's body suddenly changed.

They are no longer just used to heal injuries, but rather they converge towards the center of the body over a large area, eventually forming rings of even more complex, dark patterns than before.

Luffy was about to continue his attack when his steps suddenly faltered.

The ground remained unchanged, but the body felt as if it were bound by some invisible force, and the movements suddenly slowed down.

It wasn't Fujitora's gravity, nor was it simply the intimidation created by Conqueror's Haki; rather, it was a strange and oppressive feeling that I had never experienced before.

Im simply raised one foot slowly.

next moment.

boom!

An invisible impact erupted head-on.

Luffy crossed his arms to block, but was still pushed away, and the ground along the way shattered.

Even more bizarrely, the other four members of the Five Elders were all intentionally cooperating with "Satan's" actions.

Those high-ranking members of the World Government who actually knew a few secrets were now completely pale.

On Beehive Island, the more Im used his power, the more obvious the changes in Satan's body became.

Not from battle wounds, but from the skin and carapace itself, fine cracks began to appear.

Black flames continued to seep out from the cracks.

Im glanced down, clearly knowing that the container could no longer withstand the strain.

So He no longer prepared to fight Luffy slowly, but instead turned his gaze past him and looked towards the distant sea.

The Thousand Sunny was speeding away from Beehive Island.

At the stern, Nami, Zoro, Sanji, Robin, Usopp, Chopper, and others were all looking back at this location.

Im watched for a few seconds.

Then they turned their attention back to Luffy.

It was as if something had finally been confirmed.

"Still the same."

Luffy frowned.

"What?"

"Power changes, and so do times."

"But your weaknesses have never changed."

A very bad premonition suddenly rose in Luffy's heart.

The next moment, Im raised his hand.

He wasn't the target.

But -

The Thousand Sunny.

In the distance, the Rinnegan instantly detected the direction of the attack.

Viktor's expression changed drastically.

"Luffy!"

At almost the same time, he directly attempted to forcibly break away from Pitt.

The wooden dragon burst forth from the ground, tearing Pitot's entire body apart. Limbo then smashed Pitot's head with a punch, and Susanoo's longsword immediately severed the line of death.

It is clear that Im gave Pit only one order.

We must hold Viktor back no matter the cost.

As soon as the black flames rose, Pit once again tightly coiled around the Nine-Tailed Fox.

For the first time, an extremely clear killing intent appeared in Viktor's eyes.

"court death."

But no matter how fast it goes, it still takes a moment.

Im's attack has already begun.

A shockwave, a mixture of pitch black and scarlet, suddenly erupted.

Before Nami could even react, Zoro and Sanji had already sensed the danger.

However, the attack was too fast, and given the Sunshine's current position, there was simply no time to completely dodge it.

Luffy suddenly turned around.

I saw my own ship, and I also saw my companions on the deck.

Without the slightest hesitation, the ground beneath his feet instantly turned into rubber.

boom!

He was thrown directly into the sea.

Im stood quietly in place, without giving chase.

Because He knew from the beginning that Luffy would definitely make this choice.

Eight hundred years ago.

The same thing.

He had seen it too many times.

Luffy caught up with the attack at top speed, his body rapidly growing to enormous size in mid-air, his arms fully outstretched, directly blocking the Thousand Sunny and the Black and Red Impact.

Nami finally saw the white figure clearly, and her expression changed instantly.

"Luffy!!"

Luffy turned around and even had time to grin at his crewmates.

next second.

The attack has been successful.

boom--!!!

The black and red impact hit Luffy head-on.

The massive Gear 5 body was instantly crushed and deformed, the Conqueror's Haki covering its arms constantly exploding and flashing.

But Luffy just gritted his teeth; the Thousand Sunny was right behind him, and he couldn't retreat even a step.

The terrifying impact kept pressing the body downwards, and the muscles, which were already close to their limit, began to tear.

Blood kept gushing from the corner of his mouth, and even his white hair showed signs of instability for the first time.

Nami stood on the deck and screamed:

"Enough, Luffy!"

"Get out of the way!!"

Luffy heard it, of course.

But he still didn't give way, because if he dodged the attack, it would fall on his companions.

at last.

boom!

The final layer of Conqueror's Haki defense was completely breached.

Luffy plummeted from the sky as if he had suddenly lost all his strength.

But the attack, which was originally enough to pierce the Thousand Sunny head-on, was deflected by his body and grazed the hull before crashing into the distant sea.

The Thousand Sunny shook violently.

Luffy's body is also falling into the sea.

thump.

thump.

thump...

Im, using Satan's body, stood amidst the ruins, quietly looking up at Luffy as he fell.

He spoke calmly:

"really."

"No matter how many years have passed, you will make the same choice."

"What a bunch of boring people."
