I quit the Straw Hats at the beginning and joined the Beasts Group

Kalina couldn't help but open her mouth, unable to close it for a long time.

His face was full of horror and he was sweating profusely.

Speechless.

"brush!"

But the next moment.

In her incredible eyes.

Ryan's huge body began to shrink.

It directly transformed into a human form and landed steadily on the deck.

"Eh?"

Looking at the tall, young, handsome man in front of me.

Kalina's eyes widened in shock, her voice lost in thought: "You...you are human?"

Her eyes were full of curiosity.

At the same time, with indescribable vigilance.

I subconsciously took a few steps back and kept my distance.

"I'm not human, so how could I be a ghost?"

Ryan folded his arms and chuckled.

He looked at the female thief in front of him who was wearing a black felt hat, had purple hair, was dressed in a heroic and capable manner, and had an impressive figure.

He has recognized the other person's identity.

Phantom Thief? Kalina!

A woman with a quick mind, superb stealing skills, and no less beautiful and intelligent than the thief Nami.

Like the little thief Nami, she was also born in the East China Sea and is a very smart female thief.

He started to roam the sea at a very young age, specializing in stealing the property of pirates, nobles and wealthy businessmen.

It is said that he had some interactions with Nami.

In the future, she will be even more daring.

They have set their sights on the treasure of the Golden Emperor Tesoro.

Relying on his own wisdom and strategy, he stole the giant ship, the Gran Tesoro, which was built by the "Golden Emperor" Gild Tesoro with a large amount of gold collected, and a lot of time and effort, right under the noses of the navy fleet and the Straw Hat Pirates.

No wonder they have such excellent sailing skills.

"Are you... a person with special abilities?"

Kalina is not stupid.

It soon became clear.

The person in front of me should be a user of some special devil fruit ability.

Moreover, she always felt that the other person was vaguely familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere.

"Devil Fruits are categorized into natural, parahuman, and animal types. Although the natural type is generally considered the strongest..."

Ryan shrugged and said nonchalantly, "But strictly speaking, the Animal System is no worse than the Natural System. It also has rare ancient species, as well as mythical beast species that are considered even rarer than the Natural System!"

"Ancient species? Mythical beast species?"

Hear the words.

Kalina blinked.

Full of surprise, she really didn't know that there were such differences in animal-type abilities.

"As the name suggests, the so-called ancient species are animals that existed in ancient times..."

Ryan smiled and explained, "As for mythical beasts, they're more complicated. They usually only exist in myths or legends, and are fictional creatures or characters created by people!"

When he recognized the other person, he had already made up his mind.

We must recruit this extremely intelligent and eccentric vixen into our team.

After all, he was in need of an excellent navigator.

It's impossible to be alone all the time.

To dominate this ocean, one needs not only personal strength, but also a sufficiently powerful force.

Before actually starting your own plan.

He needs to build his own team first.

"So that's it..."

Karina suddenly realized, "So you're a user of a Zoanthropic beast, right?"

Feel that the other party has no ill intentions.

She let down her guard a little and began to carefully look at the handsome and powerful man in front of her.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Sparks Ryan. I'm from the East China Sea, but was born in the South China Sea... I'm an animal-type user with the Bull-Ox Fruit, a mythical beast, and a Kirin form!"

Ryan introduced himself politely with a smile on his face.

"Sparks Ryan? Are you from the East China Sea too?"

Kalina was surprised.

When she heard that the other party was also from the East China Sea, she immediately developed a lot of favorable impressions of him.

"To be precise, I grew up in the East China Sea for some reason, but I was born in the South China Sea!"

Ryan added simply.

"Wait, Sparks Ryan... I remember..."

Looking at Ryan in front of me, I always feel inexplicably familiar.

Karina tilted her head, as if a sudden thought had occurred to her.

He hurriedly took out a stack of wanted posters from his pocket and started searching through them.

Finally, a reward notice was taken out.

The photo published above was exactly the same as Ryan in front of him.

"You are the vice-captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, Sparks Lane, the 'Blood Prison' with a bounty of 200 million berries?"

She widened her eyes.

He looked at Ryan in surprise, comparing it again and again with the newly released bounty list.

I never expected that I would meet the vice-captain of the Straw Hat Pirates here.

"The vice-captain of the Straw Hat Pirates?"

Looking at the bounty on the list, which had become 200 million Baileys, Ryan couldn't help but chuckle: "That's all in the past!"

"Just a few days ago, I quit the Straw Hat Pirates!"

The reason why Ryan was able to come from behind and become the vice-captain of the Straw Hat Pirates.

Mainly when I just got on the boat.

He once made a bet with Zoro and Sanji, the two strongest members of the Straw Hat Pirates except Captain Luffy.

Under the witness of Captain Luffy.

Everyone speaks with their fists, and the winner becomes the second captain.

The result is self-evident.

Even if they don't use the Lunalia people's innate abilities to bully these rookies who haven't grown up yet.

Although Ryan had already awakened his Observation Haki and his swordsmanship was far superior to Zoro's, he won easily without any suspense and became the vice-captain.

In the Kingdom of Alabasta, after killing Crocodile "Sand Crocodile".

Originally, the bounty he, the deputy captain, received was the same as that of Captain Luffy, which was 100 million berries.

And those 200 million Baileys.

This was probably because the Straw Hat Pirates had previously left the Sky Island at an altitude of 8 meters on the Golden Merry, and happened to land at the G- branch directly under the Navy.

He caused a big commotion there and killed many navy officers, causing considerable losses to the navy headquarters.

This is also one of the reasons why he had disagreements with other members of the Straw Hat Pirates and the conflicts gradually intensified.

Go on a killing spree in the G-8 branch.

He really wanted to vent his anger because of some personal grudge.

After all, to these running dogs of the world government.

It was natural that Ryan, a remnant of the Lunalia tribe, could not have any good feelings towards him.

The World Government once issued a long-term bounty. Anyone who discovered the whereabouts of this clan could receive a huge reward of hundreds of millions of berries just by reporting it.

It is conceivable that once his identity is truly exposed.

It will inevitably bring about huge turmoil, countless troubles will follow, and there will be no peace.

By then, we may even face a situation where the whole world is our enemy.

Even the unarmed and honest civilians on the roadside, as well as bounty hunters and pirates, will become spies of the World Government.

Not to mention that you might be monitored wherever you go.

There must be countless people who would try to capture him at all costs and even try every possible means to murder him in order to collect the huge reward.

In this sea, there are countless greedy people who are blinded by money and are unable to kill them all.

Otherwise, how could the Lunalia people, who are said to be able to survive in any harsh natural environment and have incredibly tenacious vitality, be on the verge of extinction?

The instigator of all this is none other than the almighty World Government that firmly controls this ocean!

In the past, the Lunalia tribe was hailed as a tribe of gods and lived on the Red Earth Continent.

It can be said that the Holy Land, Marijoa, the highest power center of the World Government, was once the home of the Lunalia people.

Not only were their homes stolen.

Even the entire ethnic group was wanted, hunted down and persecuted.

The race was nearly extinct for hundreds of years, and to this day, there are only a handful of survivors in the entire ocean.

Although Ryan is a hybrid of the Lunalia and mermaid tribes, he does not have brown skin, and even his wings were plucked out by his father when he was just born.

As long as you don't use the Lunalia tribe's innate abilities in front of others.

No one could recognize his identity.

Don't worry too much.

But after all, he inherited the bloodline of the Lunalia tribe.

Even if we don't talk about any great justice, it's still about avenging our ancestors and seeking justice.

Just for the sake of his future descendants who may also inherit the Lunalia bloodline, so that they will no longer be wanted and persecuted all over the world like the Lunalia people for generations.

Sooner or later, Ryan will have to settle this account with the World Government and its controllers, the Celestial Dragons.

From the very beginning, he has been on the opposite side of the World Government.

The two sides are destined to be enemies who will fight to the death.

"Eh!?"

.......

Chapter 9: Bombardment? Navy Fleet [Fourth Update]

"My name is Kalina, and I'm also from the East China Sea..."

He stared at Ryan, who was about the same age as him but incredibly strong.

Hearing that the other party had left the Straw Hat Pirates, a somewhat surprised Karina smiled and said, "Thank you so much for what I did just now. Otherwise, I might have been caught up by those guys... Don't stand there, please sit down and talk!"
