Why would a Saint Seiya become a pirate?

Time seemed to slow down incredibly, one second, two seconds...

Then, Shanks's satisfying groan broke the beautiful silence.

Before long, a brand new arm began to slowly grow from Shanks' severed arm.

Muscles, bones, and skin gradually become visible.

It was as if time had reversed at that moment, reshaping the long-lost arm.

Fanny looked at his "masterpiece" and said with satisfaction.

"I'm returning the arm you left in the East China Sea to you."

"The chosen one is mine."

Upon witnessing this scene, Lyme Jones's anger erupted like a burst dam.

His eyes widened as if they were about to spit fire, and he shouted loudly.

"Damn it! Stop him!"

As he spoke, he stomped his foot hard, raising a cloud of dust.

He charged forward like an arrow released from a bow, so fast that all that could be seen was a black afterimage.

Fanny, however, remained calm, a mysterious smile playing on his lips, a smile that seemed to conceal endless secrets.

He said softly, "Goodbye, telekinesis, activate!"

Instantly, a faint light emanated from his body, like soft moonlight, enveloping him.

He slowly rose into the air, the ground beneath his feet gradually receding away, until he disappeared from everyone's sight.

Shanks' eyes widened, his face filled with shock.

His mouth opened slightly, as if he had seen the most incredible thing in the world, and he shouted loudly.

"Nani?"

Lyme Jones looked around anxiously and angrily, shouting as he looked around.

"Where are the people?"

His voice echoed through the streets of the port, but received no response.

Beckman took a deep drag of his cigarette and slowly exhaled a smoke ring.

He said calmly.

"No need to look anymore, they've already gone far away."

"Is this the power of a space-time Devil Fruit?"

Shanks stared in the direction Fanny had disappeared, a complex look in his eyes.

"I don't know, but my Observation Haki tells me that this person is very strong."

Then Beckman said...

At that moment, Jesus ran to Shanks with a look of astonishment on his face.

Pointing to his newly grown arm, he stammered.

"Captain, your arm."

Shanks looked at his new arm with an expression of disbelief.

His eyes were filled with surprise and doubt as he exclaimed in astonishment.

"Wow, it really grew!"

Lucky Roux, who was standing nearby, joked.

"So how are you going to act all high and mighty from now on?"

Shanks was taken aback for a moment after hearing this, then burst into laughter.

The laughter was hearty and unrestrained, seemingly able to pierce through the clouds and resound throughout the entire harbor.

Then I heard him say...

"Well, it doesn't matter. Let's have a banquet to celebrate my arm's recovery!"

Upon hearing Shanks' words, everyone cheered with joy.

……

In the end of Chapter 3, the Saint Seiya still became a pirate.

Luffy's stomach rumbled loudly, hunger gripping his intestines like an invisible hand.

He mumbled weakly, "Fanny, I'm hungry, I want meat."

Fanny, standing next to him, also sighed and replied with a pained expression, "Don't say anything, I'm hungry too."

Their voices sounded particularly faint on the vast, empty sea.

Who would have thought that after a series of bizarre and thrilling events, Fanny would actually manage to come to Luffy's side?

And by some strange twist of fate, he became his first crew member.

Looking back on the twists and turns of the journey, Fanny himself felt like he was dreaming.

Not long ago, Van Nistelrooy demonstrated his teleportation ability.

Showing off and then running away is truly thrilling.

Especially in front of the arrogant and pretentious Schocs.

He had intended to find a safe place to rest, but when he came to his senses, he found himself standing in front of Bartholomew the Great Bear.

The moment Fanny saw the bear, he felt a strange sense of peace.

In this world of One Piece, where powerful figures abound, the name of Bartholomew Kuma, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the gatekeeper, is known to all.

In Van Nistelrooy's eyes, he was the epitome of reliability.

Replace sincerity with sincerity.

Without hesitation, Fanny told Big Bear about his situation directly.

From the bizarre experience of being transported to this world, to the confusion and exploration in this unfamiliar world.

He poured out his heart without reservation.

He even revealed all his plans that were not yet fully formed and were still in their infancy.

Big Bear had no suspicion whatsoever about the harmless little guy in front of him.

I was going to die anyway, so it's nice to have someone to confide in before I die.

Finally, Fanny carefully took the Athena sculpture from his pocket and solemnly handed it to the bear.

Tell him that this sculpture can cure all diseases.

Then, taking advantage of the opportunity to shake hands with the bear, he passed on the key to the universe.

Big Bear had no idea what Fanny was doing.

But he knew it was for his own good.

Unexpectedly, after Big Bear developed his own inner universe, Fanny discovered that his own inner universe had also grown a little.

Although it was only a small thing, Fanny had a bold idea.

Why risk your life for sit-ups? If you just bring the Sanctuary over, you'll instantly gain the Eighth Sense.

In Fanny's mind, there had always been a bold and certain conjecture.

The most suitable human form for Athena in this world is one of these two girls, Nefit D. Vivi and Jewelry Bonney.

Fanny weighed the options in his mind, comparing and analyzing the two men's personalities, experiences, and various details.

Vivi is kind and brave, and she will do anything to protect her country.

Bonnie, on the other hand, acts mysteriously and exudes an unfathomable aura.

After careful consideration, Fanny felt that Jewelry Bonney was more suitable to cultivate the incarnation of Athena.

As for Vivi, of course she'll be his wife!

In his previous life, Van Nistelrooy was extremely envious of Saturn's power of time.

Perhaps it was Fanny's sincerity that moved him, or perhaps it was their shared pursuit.

Big Bear decides to help this stranger in a foreign land.

With the help of the bear, Fanny felt the scene before him change in an instant.

The next second, he flew towards Luffy's location like a cannonball.

When he could see his surroundings again, he found himself landing squarely on Luffy's face.

Luffy was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, his hearty laughter instantly closing the distance between the two.

Van Nistelrooy recalled the changes in his strength with a wry smile.

With his own cosmos, even without wearing a Saint Cloth, he had enough confidence to swagger around in front of Shanks.

What infuriated him was that the Pegasus Cloth, which had always fought alongside him, could automatically recognize him as its master.

It seems that Big Bear has delivered the item to Bonnie as agreed.

Moreover, Athena's power has also been unlocked.

Fanny looked at Luffy, who was full of energy and called himself a rubber man, and was filled with doubt and helplessness.

He kept asking himself, "Isn't this Luffy supposed to be Nika? How come even my Pegasus Cloth flew onto him?"

This incomprehensible and bizarre phenomenon is also the main reason why Fanny was "voluntarily" kept by Luffy's side.

The moment he crossed over into this world, his Pegasus Cloth, which originally belonged to him, seemed to be summoned by some mysterious force.

It broke free from his control and flew away.

This sacred garment has traversed this vast world, crossing countless mountains and oceans, and experiencing countless twists and turns.

In the end, he actually found his home in Luffy.
