One Piece: My Crew is from Other World

"Captain...?"

Noticing Ryuunosuke fall silent, Najenda glanced at him in confusion.

Ryuunosuke exhaled deeply, eyes still fixed on the horizon.

"Assign him as captain of a miscellaneous work squad. Once the rest of the arrangements are done, have him come see me," he said calmly.

Najenda nodded and wasted no time. Summoning her Susanoo, she vanished from the deck in a blur, heading straight for Yakos.

A short while later, the aging Vice Admiral stepped aboard the Ship of the Gods—and immediately, his eyes widened.

From the moment his feet hit the deck, Yakos felt it: the pressure.

It wasn't just Haki—it was killing intent, strength, conviction. Every crewmember here radiated the aura of a predator. Not just powerful… monstrous.

The core members of the Dragon Hunter Pirates were all assembled. Aside from the Phantom Troupe, this ship now housed Nightraid, Yahiko puppet, and most notably—the Seven Deadly Sins.

For a man who had once chased the Pirate King, Yakos rarely feared others. But now, standing among these monsters, he felt a cold sweat trickle down his back.

The world truly had no idea how powerful this crew had become.

"First of all," Ryuunosuke said, stepping forward with his arms crossed, "welcome to the Dragon Hunter Pirates—as captain of a logistics unit."

"Second," his eyes narrowed, "tell me what you know."

As he spoke, Ryuunosuke mentally activated his status panel.

He scrolled through it swiftly—searching for Yakos's name.

Nothing.

Not even a single line of system recognition.

That meant one thing: Yakos hadn't truly committed himself to the crew.

Whether he had hidden motives or was simply testing the waters, Ryuunosuke didn't care.

Because in the face of absolute strength, no scheme would amount to anything.

"I currently know the whereabouts of three members of the Roger Pirates," Yakos began, regaining composure.

"First is Gaban—he's settled down on a quiet island in the New World. Living like a normal old man, far away from the chaos."

Ryuunosuke nodded. Gaban had vanished from history. Most believed him dead.

"Second—Douglas Bullet. After escaping from Impel Down, he went into hiding on Alcatraz."

Yakos's tone dropped slightly.

"Rumor has it… he's preparing something big."

"And the third," Yakos paused, "you already know."

"Silvers Rayleigh. Still in seclusion at Sabaody Archipelago."

Ryuunosuke's brows rose slightly at the mention of Gaban.

He hadn't expected that legend to still be alive. Most intel networks didn't even have a trace of him. And Douglas Bullet—he was the wild card.

That man held one thing no one else in the world had: Raftel's Eternal Pose.

If they got their hands on it, the Dragon Hunter Pirates could reach the final island without collecting the Road Poneglyphs. All those tales and rumors about what Roger left behind... they might finally be proven.

Of course, that Eternal Pose wasn't handed down for a reason. Raftel wasn't a place any pirate crew could reach. Only those worthy—those powerful enough to survive the journey—would ever see it.

And Ryuunosuke fully intended to be one of them.

"Understood," he replied at last.

"You'll lead a special intelligence unit under the logistics squad. I'll assign 500 operatives under your command."

"I want information. Locations, patterns, movements. I want every surviving member of Roger's crew tracked down."

Yakos gave a small nod, but before he could respond, Ryuunosuke turned away.

"Those men didn't just disappear. They chose to stay hidden. There's a reason they stepped back from the world after Roger's death."

"Rayleigh chose to train the Straw Hats. Shanks built an empire. Buggy fumbled into infamy."

"The rest? Either fulfilling Roger's will… or guarding something he left behind."

Yakos hesitated. "Captain, if I may—"

"Follow the order," Najenda interrupted sharply.

"In the Dragon Hunter Pirates, disobedience leads to death. Don't forget that."

Yakos shut his mouth.

Shortly after, Najenda organized a ship and crew to escort him to his new post.

With those matters settled, Nojiko returned to Ryuunosuke's side. The rest of the crew had assembled on the main deck.

These were the elite—the backbone of the Dragon Hunter Pirates.

[The Phantom Troupe was still away.]

"Yahiko. You and Jigokudo will be our final line of defense."

Ryuunosuke stood before them, his voice firm.

"This is the base I've chosen. It will be the sanctuary for our crew—the fallback point should anything happen."

"Your team has a navigator. You'll move independently from now on."

He handed an Eternal Pose to Yahiko.

"Preserve our foundation. No matter what."

Jigokudo's powers were formidable in combat, but more than that—they were versatile, able to conceal, protect, and rebuild.

Given the dangers looming over the world—the World Government's tightening grip, and even the mysterious man Fengyue—Ryuunosuke had learned one lesson well:

Complacency kills.

And the sea… was no longer forgiving.

"I understand, Captain," Yahiko replied, taking the Eternal Pose with a solemn nod.

"One more thing," Ryuunosuke added. "You'll maintain our contact with Gild Tesoro and Dr. Myskina Acier. Olga's safety is also your responsibility."

Dr. Myskina and Olga had been left in the New World during their last mission. The new base was located in the same region, making Yahiko's team the perfect choice for both defense and logistics.

"And if we're attacked?" Yahiko asked bluntly. "Do I have authorization to engage?"

Ryuunosuke's gaze sharpened.

"Anyone who invades our territory—destroy them without hesitation."

"Begin preparations immediately. You leave within the hour. If anything happens, report directly to me."

"Understood," Yahiko saluted, then turned and departed with his squad.

The Dragon Hunter Pirates were about to sail again—and this time, the world would be watching.

Enemies would gather. Opponents would scheme. But while the world stared at the flag on the sea… Yahiko's team would protect the heart beneath it.

As his silhouette faded, Ryuunosuke turned to the Seven Deadly Sins.

"Meliodas. You'll lead the investigation into demonic energy in this world."

"Escanor mentioned something strange recently. That energy's been bothering me."

"This world may be far more complex than we believed. If anything suspicious appears—contact me immediately."

"Do not act alone."

Meliodas gave a small grin and nodded.

"Got it, Captain."

He paused… then stepped forward.

"But before I go, there's something I need to show you."

From behind his cloak, he pulled out a small, ornate box.

Whatever was inside—it clearly mattered.

Ryuunosuke's eyes narrowed slightly.

"…What is it?"
