Time flew by, and nearly ten years passed.

During these years, Shin basically split his time between the New World and Amazon Lily.

Nothing major had happened in the past few years—the sea was relatively calm.

Well, "relatively calm" was a stretch. It would be a lie to say that pirates didn't fight among themselves—or that the Marines didn't hunt pirates.

But for the time being, there were no conflicts between the Four Emperors, and the Marines hadn't made any moves against them, so the various powers were in a state of relative balance.

"Shin, why are we suddenly going to the East Blue, the weakest of the seas?" Hancock asked Shin.

At this moment, Shin's Pluton had just left the New World and was heading for the East Blue.

"There's a reason for going to the East Blue," Shin said with a slight smile to Hancock.

Hancock had matured a lot, her charm even greater. Of course, this was also thanks to Shin's help. He had already "Eaten" her.

After all, she had been seducing him all this time.

Who could resist? He had devoured her clean a long time ago.

"Oh."

Hancock murmured softly and didn't ask any more questions. She leaned against Shin and found a comfortable position to yawn.

The reason Shin was going to the East Blue was because the story was about to begin, or rather, it had already begun.

Speaking of which, after so many years in the One Piece world, he had never actually met the protagonist, Luffy. This was also his first time going to the East Blue.

"You two are so relaxed," Robin said, looking at Shin and Hancock.

"Aren't you? I think you're very relaxed too," Shin said with a light smile.

Robin came over and sat beside him, joining them in sunbathing.

"I feel like you're a third wheel." Hancock glanced at Robin with a hint of dissatisfaction.

"That's right. I deliberately came over to be a third wheel." Robin said to Hancock.

Hancock snuggled into Shin's arms, then looked at Robin provocatively. To be honest, seeing her provocative gaze, Robin felt a little uncomfortable.

"It would be nice to have some fruit now." Shin expressed his desire to eat some fruit.

"Shin-sama, it's ready."

As soon as he finished speaking, Baby-5 came over with a fruit platter.

"Uh, you're really thoughtful, Baby-5," Shin said with a light chuckle.

Baby-5 giggled foolishly. Her silly appearance made even Monet feel a bit too embarrassed to watch.

"This is too slow. Speed up the Pluton."

Although the Pluton's speed was not slow, Shin still felt it was too slow. As for speeding it up, he naturally used his repulsive force.

Instantly, the Pluton shot forward like an arrow from a bow, several times faster than before.

Well, going too fast could easily lead to accidents. Shin wasn't paying attention, and then something happened—

With a thud, they crashed into a ship.

"Oops, that was careless." Shin said, looking at the sinking warship.

But out on the sea, with such low odds, was colliding with the other ship luck—or misfortune?

After sinking the enemy warship, Shin's Pluton remained unscathed. After all, this was Pluton, crafted from the original blueprints.

————

"DAMN PIRATES."

A very angry voice came. Shin stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the Marine flying in the air with Moonwalk, feeling quite embarrassed.

"Sorry, I didn't do it on purpose."

Shin waved at her. As it turned out, this Marine was a woman—and she had a striking figure.

Pink hair, a Marine Headquarters Captain, was she the Bind-Bind Fruit user, Hina?

Shin had already recognized her—and she, in turn, recognized him.

Looking at the Kuja Pirates' flag, the originally angry Hina was stunned for a moment. She had run into none other than one of the Four Emperors—Shin Uzumaki.

And now her ship had been sunk by him. Was this sheer misfortune?

"Hina is very angry. Hina is going to arrest you all."

Even knowing she was facing one of the Four Emperors, Hina didn't back down. Black iron bars shot toward Shin without a trace of mercy.

But before they could reach him, Hancock's blade sliced them apart. In the next instant, Hina's body spun out of control in midair and plummeted toward the Pluton.

It was Universal Pull—Shin had dragged her in with his power.

"Tough luck for you—you got caught by me."

Shin snapped Seastone cuffs onto Hina, and the moment they locked in place, her strength drained away.

"Damn it, you crashed Hina's ship, and now you're arresting Hina." Hina was very angry.

If she hadn't reacted quickly, she would have plunged into the sea. And for a Devil Fruit user, falling into the ocean meant only one outcome—certain death.

"That's why I said you have tough luck. If it wasn't for your bad luck, you wouldn't have taken my hit—and you wouldn't be my prisoner now." Shin paid no mind to Hina's anger.

"Then why isn't this your fault?" Hina shot back, clearly unconvinced.

"Because I'm stronger than you. The strong are never wrong. That makes you unlucky. Let's get you locked up first."

Shin gestured to Monet, letting her lock Hina up.

The Pluton had a built-in prison, though it had never been used until now. Hina would be its first occupant.

"Shin, you're not going to kill her, are you?" Momousagi asked Shin, a hint of worry in her heart.

Although she had basically integrated into the Kuja Pirates, she still didn't want to see a Marine being killed.

"If we can bring her into the crew, we will. If not, we'll deal with it later. Momousagi, you're in charge of convincing her to surrender," Shin ordered.

Momousagi nodded.

It was best to leave this matter to her. At the very least, she could ensure the other's life was spared.

After Momousagi left, Hancock and Robin both fixed Shin with curious, almost suspicious looks.

"What is it?" Shin asked, noticing their stares.

"Shin, you didn't kill her because you think she's pretty, did you?" Hancock asked Shin.

Robin shared the same view as Hancock.

"That's right. If she weren't beautiful, she'd be long gone by now." Shin nodded without the slightest denial.

"You don't even bother denying it." Amatsuki Toki fixed Shin with a pointed gaze.

"What's there to deny? Even if I did, would you really believe me?"

Shin spoke calmly. It was the truth—if he denied it, the only one who'd believe him was Shirahoshi, who trusted him completely.
