Pirate: This Marine has two Rinnegan.

Looking at the huge chunk of meat in his hand, and thinking about the characters who would appear later in the One Piece world, Chiga remarked...

"The animals in the world of One Piece really have one thing in common: they're huge, and their meat is very nutritious. No wonder the people here are all so big."

After finishing her food, Chiga got up to take a short rest when a cannon shot suddenly caught her attention.

"Hmm? People have arrived on the island? Could it be a pirate crew?"

"If it's a pirate crew, I hope it's a strong one, so that it will be much easier for me to join the Navy."

Thinking of this, Chiga casually tossed aside the grilled meat in his hand, controlled the repulsive force to fly up, and shot towards the direction of the sound.

On the other side of the island,

A huge pirate ship was docked at the shore, and a group of pirates were gleefully butchering the carcass of a ferocious beast.

"Haha, how weak. Compared to the Grand Line, the animals here can be taken care of with a single ordinary cannonball."

"Indeed, the Navy has deployed most of its forces to the Grand Line, making our Brand Pirates invincible here!"

Standing on the bow of the pirate ship is the captain of the Brand Pirates, Brand. Yes, the pirate crew is named after him. You can see his arrogance. He is a Devil Fruit user, a Paramecia type, the Door-Door Fruit.

Bruno ate the fruit in P9, which shows that he was also destined to die young and ultimately could not escape his fate.

However, with this fruit, he became arrogant and domineering in his hometown, thinking himself invincible. Soon after, he formed his own pirate crew and set off for the Grand Line.

As a result, there were many people with similar abilities to him on the Grand Line, and he soon realized his own insignificance. In a naval battle with his fellow travelers, he was almost wiped out. If it weren't for his excellent ability to escape, he would probably be dead by now.

With a sigh, Brand composed himself. After all, he had returned from the Grand Line, albeit in a somewhat disheveled manner. But at least he had the experience. Just like some people on Earth who have been to big cities, they always have a sense of superiority when they return.

He shouted to the henchmen below,

"Alright, guys! Carry the prey to the open space. We'll have a feast tonight, and tomorrow we'll visit the villages and towns in this area. I'm sure they'll welcome us warmly, hahaha!"

The pirates below became even more excited, and they vigorously lifted their prey, preparing to head deeper into the island.

Just then, an untimely voice rang out.

"So you're just a bunch of pathetic losers. I hope your captain's bounty isn't too low."

Upon hearing this, the pirates were enraged. They looked around frantically, shouting that they would find the man and tear him to pieces.

But after looking for a long time, they still couldn't find the person.

"Stop looking, you bunch of idiots! He's in the sky!"

Brand, who was on the ship, had been around the Grand Line before, and upon hearing the sound, he spotted Chika with her arms crossed in the air.

"He can fly... Is he also a Devil Fruit user? Damn it, the ability to fly is really troublesome!" Brand thought to himself as he looked at Chika in the air.

"Bounty hunter? You're a bounty hunter?" Brand asked Chiga in the sky.

"A bounty hunter?" Qianhe shook his head.

"Wrong, I just need your heads as proof of my initiation into the Navy."

"What? You damned brat, don't think you're invincible just because you can fly! Dare to come down and play with us grandpas?!" one of the henchmen shouted arrogantly.

"So noisy." Qianhe raised her hand towards the one that was shouting the loudest. "Why don't you come up and play for a bit?"

All things Tianyin

Buzz! The henchman who had just spoken was horrified to find his body being uncontrollably sucked into the sky by an inexplicable force, and in no time he was pulled to a position shoulder to shoulder with Chiho.

"Now that I'm standing in front of you, what do you want?"

The henchman swallowed hard, about to speak, but Qianhe said impatiently,

"Forget it, you should just get off. You're disgusting."

After saying that, Chiga released the power he had placed on him, and the henchman fell from a height of 100 meters.

*Thud!* A crisp sound rang out, and a puddle of minced meat appeared on the ground.

Chapter 7 First Trial of the Hungry Ghost Path

In the blink of an eye, their side had already lost a comrade without any explanation, and the pirates below were not calm.

"Damn it, he can not only fly, he can make others fly too??"

"How can I hit it? I can't even touch it!"

"How could we be so unlucky? We run into such a tough opponent even in the East China Sea?"

The pirates were clearly panicked, and some even began to sneakily move towards the pirate crew behind them.

boom!

A minor pirate leader fired a shot into the air, temporarily silencing the restless crowd. The pirates all turned to look at him.

"Cheer up, everyone! What kind of Devil Fruit users haven't we seen on the Grand Line? Don't forget, our captain is a Devil Fruit user too. Just because someone can fly doesn't mean we can't be dealt with!"

One of the pirate leaders, whose morale was about to collapse before the fight even started, quickly spoke up to try and calm everyone down.

Hearing this, the pirates calmed down a bit and began to console themselves.

"Yes, our captain is Brand, the Demon King who made his name on the Grand Line with a bounty of 100 million Berries. He must have a way to deal with this flying brat!"

"That's right!"

"Damn flying brat, you better not run away, our captain will soon show you how terrifying pirates can be!"

"Wait! Where's our captain!?"

The pirates were stunned and quickly turned to look in the direction of the pirate ship, only to find that Brand, who had been standing at the bow, was nowhere to be seen.

"Has the captain already run away???" the pirates thought with a sense of despair.

At this moment, Chiga was still floating in the sky, not making a move yet, because when the pirate crew became agitated, he saw Captain Brand open a door in the air and jump in.

Suddenly, Chiga turned to an empty space and spoke.

"Come out. If you're planning a sneak attack, I advise you to abandon that idea."

However, there was no response, as if Chiga had been talking to herself.

"Looks like you want me to find you."

Chiga focused her gaze on one spot, her eyes narrowing slightly.

Rinnegan - Yomotsu Hirasaka

This is a spatial ability demonstrated by Kaguya Otsutsuki and Urashiki in Naruto. It allows them to open a black portal out of thin air and travel freely between different spaces. No preparation is required to activate it, such as hand seals or markings.

The downside is that it takes a certain amount of time to open the portal, so it's not very useful in battles against strong opponents. Its strength lies in its powerful functionality, and right now, it's the most useful ability to deal with a space-type ability user.

Suddenly, a black hole appeared out of nowhere in the space that Chiga was looking at, and Brand appeared inside the black hole.

Brand's face turned ashen.

Since obtaining the Door-Door Fruit, he has escaped countless times, even when faced with formidable enemies, thanks to his incredibly overpowered fruit ability.

Just now, in the doorway space, when he heard Qianhe's voice and saw his gaze that seemed to be looking at him through space, a sense of unease flashed through his heart.

However, confident in his Devil Fruit ability, he temporarily suppressed his unease, calmed down, and waited for Chiga to relax before launching a successful attack.

As a result, Qianhe actually opened his own door space, directly exposing him. He felt like a young girl who had been dragged out of her boudoir and seen naked.

This time he was truly doomed. Seeing that his most prized ability was insignificant in front of Chiga, Brand began to consider retreating. He knew that with Chiga's abilities, it was impossible for him to escape.

"Can you spare my life? I'll give you all my treasures, which are worth far more than my bounty!" Brand didn't care about saving face anymore; he just wanted to live.

Chika tilted her head. "But if I kill you, all of this will still be mine."

“No! It’s different. If I die, you’ll never find them!” Brand hurriedly said.

The treasure was naturally stored in his own spatial dimension. Once he died, this space would disappear, and even if the next ability user opened it again, it wouldn't be this space. This was his last means of survival.

But what happened next filled him with despair.

Qianhe used the same move as before, sucking out countless boxes from a black hole. The boxes naturally contained the wealth that Brand had accumulated over the years.

"Damn it, I'll fight you to the death!" Seeing that his last trump card was gone, Brand went all out.

"Armed!" Brand's right hand was covered with a black substance, and he slammed it towards Chiga's face.

Snapped!

Brand watched in disbelief as Chiga easily caught his full-force attack in her palm.

"That's Armament Haki, isn't it? Looks like you've learned something on the Grand Line." Chika looked at Brand's black fist and gave a slight affirmation, but then shook her head.

"Unfortunately, it's too weak."

Without giving Brand a chance to speak, Chiga changed her hand into a claw and grabbed Brand's neck.

Rinnegan - Preta Path Activation

Brand's eyes widened as he felt his life force rapidly draining away.

He tried to struggle, but his body was clearly no longer under his control. At this moment, all he felt was endless despair.

Chapter 8 Rinnegan with Tomoe (Youth Version)

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Chiga, who was activating his ability, stopped absorbing the Hungry Ghost Path, because he found that the use of the Hungry Ghost Path was not achieving the effect he had expected.

Yes, Chiga envisioned that the Rinnegan's Preta Path could absorb chakra in Naruto, and chakra is essentially energy, which in the One Piece world is equivalent to Haki and the energy within the body.

Chiga wasn't satisfied with that. He felt that the power of Devil Fruits also required physical strength, so why didn't he feel this special power when he absorbed it earlier?

Could it be that the source of Devil Fruit powers is not actually within the body?

But where else besides the body could it be?

"I've got it!" A flash of inspiration struck Qianhe.

"Could it be the soul? Yes, isn't the only thing left for a person besides the body the soul? "

Without hesitation, Chiga used the Human Path ability from the Rinnegan to target the soul. He lifted Brand, who had lost the ability to resist, and slapped Brand on the head with his other hand, then lifted him up as if grabbing something.

Brand, whose only remaining ability to move was his eyes, watched in horror as a humanoid purple spirit was pulled from his head by Chiga, his body trembling instinctively.

As expected, Chiga saw a writhing mass of black energy in the heart area of ​​Brand's soul through his Rinnegan.
