Belial, Tregear, new members of the Straw Hat Pirates

Asakura Ryūya drank his sake, ate his food, and immersed himself in his own world.

Then leave the restaurant, talk to Robin and the others, and find a quiet place to completely integrate the dark power within your body.

That day, Ryu Asakura went out at night to check on the situation in the village of Kanrou and also to visit Tama and Chopper.

On the way back, Asakura Ryuya was drinking at a tavern and chatting with Kirisaki, who was slacking off.

At that moment, Asakura Ryūya heard a commotion and looked outside. He saw several men who looked like soldiers bullying some civilians.

Then, glancing at the nearby soldiers and members of the Beasts Pirates, Asakura Ryuya placed his wine cup on the table.

"I'm feeling really down, so I'll take it out on you guys!"

Asakura Ryuya returned to the restaurant and, taking advantage of the absence of others, summoned the Ultimate Battle Device and tapped the square on it.

"call……"

……

Ghost Island...

In a room sat a man who was as fat as a ball, with the word "Queen" tattooed on his arm, wearing sunglasses and a cigar in his mouth.

A man entirely black, with wings and flames burning on his back, wearing a mask that only reveals his eyes.

Standing before them was "Drought" Jack, who looked utterly helpless.

The black-clad man with flames burning behind him said, "You should know what to do next, right?"

"We only need this idiot Quinn to hold us back."

“That’s right, as long as there’s Scum Ash, that’s fine,” another fat man said, smoking a cigarette.

"Got it? Mischievous Jack."

"I see."

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you all arguing about?" a nonchalant voice rang out.

“Oh ho, it’s you, Grimd.”

"Didn't we agree to drink? Why are you arguing here?" Grimd said, sitting on the table.

“It’s because of Jack, of course,” Queen said. “Things are all bad without Doflamingo.”

“You too, Quinn,” Jhin said with displeasure. “What have you been doing, spending so much time breaking the will of those brats?”

"Ok?"

"Alright, alright, stop arguing." Grimd crossed his legs and said, "More importantly, I've heard that Kaido has some ideas."

"Huh? What is Mr. Kaido up to now?" King asked.

“First of all, BIG MOM is coming soon,” Grimd said, eating a small meat skewer.

"And also, regarding Onigashima, um... or rather, Wano Country's next plan."

……

The next day, in Huadu...

In the past two days, a very popular shop has appeared here: a buckwheat noodle shop.

This place was opened by Sanji, who goes by the pseudonym Yamagoro, and he opened the shop here based on the information left by Kirisaki.

With his exceptional culinary skills, Sanji's restaurant attracts a large number of diners, especially women.

This was naturally a great opportunity for Sanji, as he could both be around beautiful women and showcase his culinary skills – a win-win situation.

Soon, Robin, Usopp, and Franky, who were hiding their identities, also found Sanji. While enjoying Sanji's cooking, they discussed their plans.

"I wonder how the two of them are doing?"

Usopp said, "Don't worry, Luffy is tough and will be fine."

"What about Torre... Kirisaki...?"

Sanji said, "He has his own reasons for doing things, so let's not worry about him."

Just then, a newspaper vendor shouted through the streets and alleys: "Breaking news! Breaking news! A terrifying monster has appeared in Huadu, committing murders at night!"

"monster?"

The vendor shouted, "Last night, several monsters appeared and killed several soldiers."

Be careful at night, everyone.

Everyone took a newspaper, which contained a description of a monster killing people: it resembled a cicada and made strange noises.

A madman with blades on his arms.

A demon with blades growing on its shoulders, charging at people.

Murderous teru teru bozu (Japanese teru bozu doll), jellyfish that melt people.

However, these ridiculous statements were not believed by many.

"A Teru Teru teru bozu (a Japanese doll that evokes negative emotions) can kill people? How is that possible?"

"Where did these jellyfish come from? You must be kidding me."

I didn't pay much attention to that. Compared to that, the murderer Kamazo and the Robin Hood-like boy who appeared at the third quarter of the hour of the 11th of the month were more attractive.

Sanji and the others nearby didn't pay much attention; they were currently preparing to unite with like-minded individuals.

Soon, it was night.

As night falls, towns and cities are shrouded in darkness.

Two soldiers were walking down the street, conducting their routine patrol.

"Have you heard? There seemed to be some kind of monster last night."

"What monster? I think it's probably the work of that murderer, Kamazo."

"But there was one that was very strange, with a strange cry."

How strange is it?

"It's just like……"

"Hohohohohohohohohohoho."

"Yes, that's it."

"I wasn't the one laughing."

"That……"

The two looked in the direction of the sound and saw a strange figure walking into a small alley.

The two immediately followed and found the guy at the end of the alley.

"Don't move! Who are you?"

"Hohohohohohoho".

Stop laughing and turn around!

When they turned around, the two were startled to see a creature with a cicada-like face and lobster-like pincers.

"You, you are..."

Before he could finish speaking, Baltan raised his pincers and aimed them at them, releasing two red beams of light.

"what!"

The mournful cries echoed through the sky.

……

On the other side, several soldiers finished drinking and left, and saw a woman in a corner.

"Hey pretty girl, come play with us brothers," a drunk man said with a lewd grin.

"Excuse me, I'm not..."

"Don't rush, come play with us...hehehe!"

"You, don't come over here!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a dark shadow flew through the air and performed a backflip, slicing one of the men in half at the waist.

Upon seeing this scene, the group sobered up considerably. Looking at the corpse on the ground, they stared around in horror.

The woman took the opportunity to escape.

Just then, someone shouted, "Up there!"

As they looked up, they saw a masked man in black standing on the rooftop.

"Strange alien - Zuluk alien".

Zuluk performed a series of front flips in mid-air, then swiftly cleaved everyone in half at the waist with his blade.

……

Somewhere...

"You know, there's been a lot going on lately."

"Yeah, the Straw Hat crew is making us work overtime all the time, it's really infuriating."

"Don't let me run into them, or I'll kill them all, especially that Belial!"

Suddenly, the sound of running footsteps could be heard.

As the two turned their heads, a strange man wearing a mask, armor, and horns on his shoulders, named "Dark Alien Kali Alien," charged towards them.

"what?"

"Don't come any closer, or I'll..."

The Kali alien used its immense strength to knock the two of them away, leaving them motionless on the ground.

The Kali aliens didn't even look at it and quickly left the scene of the crime.

……

"Ugh, what a day!" several soldiers were grumbling.

"And that's all the money we have."

"How about we go and rob some nearby?"

"Yeah."

"Ouch!" someone exclaimed, and when they looked up, they saw a teru teru bozu (a Japanese doll shaped like a teru bozu) hanging on it.

"Where did this piece of junk come from?"

The man slapped the teru teru bozu (a Japanese doll made of teru teru bozu) and then left with an arrogant expression.

Just as they were discussing where to rob someone, a scream came from behind them.

"Ah...help me!"

They turned their heads and saw that the person was being held by the neck by a teru teru bozu doll and was having difficulty breathing.

At this moment, the Teru Teru Bozu turned red, becoming "Disc Creature Noba".

Several men drew their swords and were about to cut Noba to pieces.

Noba exhaled red gas from his mouth, and those who inhaled it immediately suffered great pain.

Noba seized the opportunity to extend his whip and sickle.

Then, a terrifying howl roused the people from their sleep.

……

On the other side, "Disc Creature Silverberry" disguised itself as a jellyfish to search for its target.

The chef at the Beasts Pirates' base in Wano Country took it back, and Silver was overjoyed. His opportunity had arrived!

While the cook wasn't looking, Hilbaburmee went to a dormitory and dissolved several people who intended to torture and kidnap the women.

Then walked away.

……

On a rooftop, a blonde woman removed her mask and said helplessly, "Honestly, I, the mighty tyrant with a sword, have to watch them cause destruction. Master, you really don't have any faith in me."

Magma Alien: Angelica Servilitas (from the Ultra Monster Girl Humanization Project).

"This is clearly a waste of talent!"

……

The next day, the discovery of more than a dozen victims and their gruesome corpses plunged people into panic.

The bizarre cases, the elusive killers, and the gruesome deaths have terrified countless people.

The monsters that no one paid attention to yesterday have now become a topic of conversation, something people talk about over tea and during meals.

Someone said, "I've heard that these guys have done a lot of bad things, so they're probably getting their comeuppance."

"It's possible."

People were discussing it, and the government decided to implement a temporary ban, temporarily prohibiting nighttime activities.

General's Mansion...

"Are you all just sitting around doing nothing?" Kurozumi Orochi shouted. "With so many people, you still couldn't catch those guys? What are you all doing?"

"General, it's not our fault. Those guys can't be found at all."

"I don't care if those ordinary people die, but this is an insult to me!"

"Lord Orochi, they might really be monsters."

"Monster! Monster! Where did this monster come from? Stop making excuses and go find it!"

"Yes Yes!"

The group left cautiously.

Just then, a subordinate ran in and reported, "Sir, we found something at a scene."

"what?"

A note appeared, and the snake opened it and read:

Orochi, the spirit of Kozuki has returned. This is a gift for you.

"what!"

The giant snake threw it away as if it were a hot potato, staring in horror at the note on the ground.

"Throw it away! Throw it away!"

"Yes."

"This is impossible! This is impossible!" the black charcoal serpent cried out in terror.

Rabbit don...

Luffy and Kid continued their usual competition, while Kirisaki silently moved stones, watching the news in the newspaper from afar.

"You've made quite a commotion, King of Monsters, Belial."
