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

This kind of scene has happened more than once or twice.

From Rogue Town to the Grand Line, Ryan always appears in time like a prince charming whenever he is in danger.

Handsome, strong, gentle...

Even if the treatment of the enemy is cold and bloody...

Facing such a Ryan, Nami couldn't help but be moved.

These days, she has been worried about him all the time, hoping that the man, who is one year younger than her but can bring her a strong sense of security, will come back.

Until I saw Ryan again.

That indescribable excitement and joy filled Nami's heart.

In fact, faced with Ryan's bold move, he simply couldn't refuse.

It fell directly.

"correct……"

Remembered something.

Nami hurriedly asked Ryan, "Ryan, have you seen Robin?"

"I don't know why, but Robin suddenly disappeared... She was with me before!"

"what?"

Ryan pretended to be ignorant.

His expression changed and he frowned.

Looking directly at Chopper, "You said Robin is missing?"

"Wuwuwu... Yes, I'm so sorry. It's my fault. I lost you..." Chopper said crying, full of self-blame.

"Nami, Sanji, Chopper..."

at this time.

In the distance, a blue fish swam over quickly.

Sitting on it were Luffy and Usopp.

"Usopp and I went to get the money back..."

He bared his teeth.

Holding two large suitcases, he spoke loudly there.

Usopp next to him looked like he had been in a fight, with bruises all over his face.

With an excited look on his face, he said happily, "Those damn bastards, I don't know why they all fainted. Luckily our money is still there... Hey... Ryan!?"

But before he could finish his words, his eyes widened.

Ryan looked at Nami in shock.

“Ryan!!!”

Luffy was also filled with excitement.

He wanted to rush up and hug this friend who, even though he kept saying that he was leaving the Straw Hat Pirates, was willing to fight the admiral of the navy to protect them at the critical moment.

But he was so excited that he didn't have time to rush over.

Ryan, who looked calm, stopped him by waving his hand: "This is not the place to talk. Let's find a place first and talk slowly..."

joke.

It’s fine if Nami, a big beautiful woman, hugs me.

Why is Straw Hat Luffy, a grown man, hugging himself with such surprise and joy?

Besides, he had really let go of the Straw Hat Pirates and did not have any major emotional fluctuations at all.

Even if he really returns to the Straw Hat Pirates.

He no longer had the passion he once had in his heart.

No matter how hard you try to piece a broken mirror back together, there will always be cracks.

???Requesting flowers??

"it is good……"

Feeling Ryan's indifference.

The end of Luffy's excitement was like a bucket of cold water being poured on him.

He pressed his hat and nodded slightly: "Then let's go back to the Merry first!"

Chopper was a little worried: "Then Robin..."

"Robin's strength will be no problem..." Luffy glanced at Ryan and said in a deep voice: "Maybe she has something to do and will come back on her own after she is done. Don't worry!"

He has something important to do.

Can't wait to ask Ryan.

Although he said on the surface that he didn't believe it.

But the rumors in the reports these days and Ryan's indifferent attitude.

This made Straw Hat Luffy a little uneasy.

……

soon.

The group returned to the coast where the Golden Merry was docked.

Zoro, who had been staying there to watch the ship and had just been woken up, was yawning and had no idea what had happened in such a short time.

.. .... ...

Seeing Ryan appear safe and sound, he was obviously relieved and a little happy: "Ryan, I'm so glad you're okay!"

Ryan shrugged: "He's just an admiral, he can't keep me!"

"You guys are really getting stronger and stronger..."

Recalling the shocking scene where Ryan was like a god, holding the huge "sun" in his hands, Zoro couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

At the same time, I felt a sense of urgency.

He has to work harder and become stronger.

Looking at the bruised Usopp, Zoro asked in surprise: "Hey, Usopp, what's wrong with you?"

"Something happened. Our money was stolen by some thugs called Franky's House, but Luffy and I got it back!"

Holding tightly the 200 million Beli he had lost and found, Usopp said with great joy.

"When we rushed over to Franky's House, those guys all fainted there for some reason..." Luffy grinned and said, "Fortunately, we still have our money!"

"It's really badly damaged..."

Looking at the Merry, which was being repaired but still showing signs of serious damage.

Ryan touched the sheep's head that had been broken, fixed with an iron sheet, and then reconnected.

He glanced at Straw Hat Luffy, Usopp and the others who were happily celebrating with the 200 million Beli.

These guys don't know it yet, but they're taking the money back from Franky.

It will also prevent Franky from auctioning off the materials of the treasure tree Adam in advance, and it is still unclear whether they can build a new ship at that time.

At the very least, they will waste several more days.

Even the time when the group will go out to sea next.

It may be significantly delayed.

……force.

Chapter 56: Domineering Declaration, Ambitious Showdown! [Five Updates]

"I'm going to start!"

"As expected, Sanji's cooking is the best!"

"Indeed, it would be nice if Robin was here too..."

"Ryan, you need to eat more!"

"Hey, Nami, even if you like Ryan, you can't give him all the dishes, right?"

"Yes, yes, I'm not here to entertain someone specially. These are all carefully prepared for you, Miss Nami! ~"

……

Aboard the Merry.

Less than half a month later.

Ryan once again enjoyed a delicious dinner at the same table with Luffy, Zoro, Nami and others.

Especially, under Nami's undisguised care.

Ryan's bowl was filled with various dishes.

It makes a certain chef grit his teeth.

"Hurry~, thank you for the treat!"

Have a delicious and satisfying meal.

Even Ryan had to admit that although this lecherous chef was a perpetual bootlicker, his cooking skills were indeed good.

"243" at least tastes much better than Jin's simple and crude "barbecue" these past two days.

"Hey, Ryan, come back..."

Luffy took a deep breath.

With a serious face, he said directly to Ryan: "I said the wrong thing last time, I apologize to you!"

"Yes, we all know we are wrong. We really shouldn't blame you!" Usopp said quickly: "Come back, Ryan!"

"I was saying that. The newspaper said two days ago that you, Ryan, were suspected of joining the Beasts Pirates. How is that possible?"

Nami also hugged Ryan's arm tightly, squinting her crescent eyes and said happily: "Ryan, don't be angry, Luffy and the others know they are wrong... Let's continue adventuring like before?"

"It's just right. Having you, the second-in-command, to practice swordsmanship with me, I won't be so lonely..."

Zoro also smiled.

"That's right, what are those guys talking about..." Luffy was also full of excitement and said loudly: "Ryan, you are our companion!"

"As expected, only with you, the deputy captain, here can we feel at ease!"

Usopp was there complimenting him.

Chopper also quickly echoed: "Yes, that's it..."

Not counting Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji.

This is indeed what Usopp, Chopper and the others really think.

Having experienced the terrible and despairing oppressive feeling brought by Admiral Aokiji last time.

Only then did they realize how important Ryan, the deputy captain, was.

"call……"

Sanji lit a cigarette and exhaled a puff of smoke.

Looking at Ryan, who was surrounded by the crowd but had a surprisingly calm expression and never expressed his intention to come back.

His heart sank.

I couldn't help but clench my fists.

He gritted his teeth and bowed to Ryan, saying, "I was wrong about what happened last time. I apologize! Vice Captain Ryan!"

"But it would be better if you could curb your overpowering desire to kill a little in the future!"
