One Piece: My Crew is from Other World-Chapter 30: SS-Class Crew, Gion Is Here!

Chapter 30: SS-Class Crew, Gion Is Here!

At this moment, Smoker was exactly as Akame had predicted.

He had seen the approaching warships in the distance.

But now, he didn't even dare to look away, let alone signal for reinforcements.

In fact, if he could, he would've warned Vice Admiral Gion to turn back.

Because the monsters in front of him...

They were far beyond anything he could handle.

Right now, it was just Lu Yu facing him alone—

No, this wasn't even a proper fight anymore.

To Smoker, it felt more like being toyed with.

And yet, Lu Yu still wore a serious expression, as if this was a genuine duel.

That made it even more confusing for Smoker.

What exactly was this guy trying to do?

One thing was certain—Lu Yu's strength wasn't inferior to a vice admiral.

And the person standing on the warship beside Lu Yu radiated the same dangerous aura.

Which meant... there was at least one more combatant with vice admiral-level power on that ship.

Just like the Navy lookout had reported earlier—

If Vice Admiral Gion got tied up, the rest of the Navy would be left defenseless.

They'd be slaughtered.

Even he wouldn't survive.

"Smoker, I'm taking this fight seriously," Lu Yu said with a faint smile, though there was a flicker of annoyance in his eyes. "You flailing around like this—makes things boring."

He tightened his grip on the Ame-no-Habakiri, now coated with Armament Haki.

Smoker's face darkened.

"Oh no..."

He quickly retreated, smoke trailing behind him.

There was no choice.

He couldn't match Lu Yu in a head-on fight.

"Running away?" Lu Yu's voice followed him like a shadow. "Is that what your teacher taught you?"

He narrowed his eyes, tone growing cold.

"If you're going to disrespect me like that, then it's time I get serious."

In the blink of an eye, Lu Yu was right in front of him.

He slashed down instantly.

Smoker's body reacted on instinct—turning into smoke to avoid the strike.

But before he could reposition, another slash came.

Then another.

And another.

A flurry of blinding attacks filled the air with afterimages.

Even with his Logia powers, Smoker couldn't recover fast enough to counterattack or escape.

---

Swish!

His body trembled. He couldn't keep this up.

Staying in his smoke form while maintaining high alert—

It was draining him fast.

And finally, slash!

A sword cut through his chest.

Bang!

Lu Yu followed up with a vicious kick, sending Smoker flying.

He crashed onto the deck of the evil warship and didn't get up.

He had fainted—body and mind completely overwhelmed.

The fight hadn't lasted long.

But Smoker was already done.

Lu Yu landed lightly back on the warship.

"Brother Lu Yu! A new Navy ship is approaching!" Akame quickly reported.

"I saw," Lu Yu said calmly, folding his arms. "And it's someone I know."

"Vice Admiral Gion—future candidate for admiral."

"Vice Admiral of the Navy Headquarters? Reserve admiral?" Najenda echoed as she finished jotting something in her notebook. "In this world, that sounds like someone strong."

"She's not bad," Lu Yu nodded. "But she's not top-tier either."

He turned to her with a grin.

"Wanna try it out? Test your current strength?"

Najenda's eyes lit up. She closed her notebook and stood tall, a spark of fighting spirit in her gaze.

"Sure," she said. "Let's see where I stand."

As for Lu Yu's standards of measurement—she could always ask later.

Or maybe she'd discover them herself through battle.

"Alright then, I'll leave it to you for now."

Lu Yu casually dragged a recliner over and lay down.

Najenda. Akame. Kuina.

The three of them were already on the system panel.

Potential: S.

Current Combat Power: S.

But once Najenda or Akame activated their Imperial Arm, they could reach SS-Class.

Still, Lu Yu wanted to see how that actually played out in real combat.

The sourc𝗲 of this content is frёeωebɳovel.com.

If none of them could take down a vice admiral... he'd need to reevaluate his future plans.

In this world, the major forces could be roughly divided into seven camps:

The World Government

The Navy

The Four Emperors

The Seven Warlords of the Sea

The Revolutionary Army

Allied Nations

Independent Kingdoms

And as Lu Yu rose to infamy, each of these camps could potentially provide reputation points.

So far, the most efficient source seemed to be the nobles.

In other words, the best way to farm reputation... was to attack the nobles directly.

If he had the chance, killing a few Celestial Dragons wouldn't be a bad idea either.

After all, their pirate crew was called the Dragon Hunter Pirates.

If they didn't take out at least a few Celestial Dragons, what kind of name was that?

Right now, Lu Yu needed over 20,000 reputation points to recruit new crew members.

If he recruited now, he could bring in two.

And if he was lucky enough to draw two S-class or above... it would make a huge difference in the upcoming fight.

"System," Lu Yu said aloud, "Recruit two crew members randomly!"

Even though Lu Yu had just said Gion wasn't a serious threat, he wasn't taking chances.

Defeating her here would definitely put him on the Navy's radar.

And if someone like Sengoku decided to step in...

Or if Garp personally hunted him down across the world...

That would be a huge headache.

Killing Gion was out of the question.

Not because of the original timeline or plotline.

But because she was Tsuru sister.

If she died, the Navy wouldn't just send an admiral—they'd probably send retired monsters from the old era too.

As the system responded, two glowing summoning circles appeared in front of Lu Yu.

Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained B-Class Crew Member: Mario.

Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained SS-Class Crew Member—

Lu Yu sat upright immediately.

"Captain!"

Two figures materialized before him.

And Lu Yu's eyes lit up in shock.

SS-Class Crew Member: Chrollo Lucilfer.

And... wait, was that Mario?

Why was he here?

Wasn't he supposed to be off rescuing a princess somewhere!?

Fighting dragons or something!?

Ahem—

Forget that. The point is:

It's CHROLLO standing right in front of me, okay?!
