One Piece: My Crew is from Other World-Chapter 63 – Pure Fire!

Chapter 63 – Pure Fire!

"Chrollo?"

"That's the second division captain of the Dragon Hunter Pirates?"

"What kind of freak body do you even have, big bro?! I seriously wanna know!"

Ace couldn't hold back his excitement. After speaking, he leapt into the air.

Flames burst from his hands, jetting beneath his feet as he rocketed away toward a nearby deserted island.

He knew better than to fight Lu Yu aboard the Evil Warship—if they went all out here, the entire ship would be wrecked.

"We'll be back soon if we just sail normally," Ryuunosuke said casually as he turned to Najenda. Then, with a crackle of lightning, he vanished from sight.

Najenda leaned over the railing, smirking. "I'm curious... We can still set sail, right? This won't delay us or anything?"

Every time Ryuunosuke fought, it lit a spark in her. No matter how many battles she saw, she never got tired of it. His power seemed bottomless. Even now, after all the time she'd spent with him, Najenda had never seen Ryuunosuke go all out.

---

"What power... That lightning!"

"Brother Ryuunosuke's gotten stronger again."

Akame raised her hand.

Sparks flickered across her palm—tiny bolts of electricity dancing between her fingers. It wasn't much, and she couldn't control it nearly as well as Ryuunosuke, but the lightning was real.

And that made no sense.

She had no training, no innate talent for this. So why...?

"I've noticed it for a while now," Najenda said with a knowing smile, raising her own hand.

"It's like everyone's growth is linked somehow. And more importantly... humanoid Teigu seem to be evolving in this world."

It was common knowledge that a Teigu's strength was tied to its user. Most weapons were fixed in power unless the user broke through their own limits. But now... Susanoo seemed to be training, evolving—growing stronger—on his own.

The crew gathered on the deck, staring off toward the distant island, watching the sparks and fire on the horizon.

Meanwhile, Hawkins began to divine the outcome of the battle.

The result?

Ace's chances of victory: 0%.

---

On the deserted island, Ace stood opposite Ryuunosuke.

"Lightning, huh?" Ace smirked. "Another flashy trick."

"But my flames now—no matter what you bring—can burn through everything!"

"White Flame: Azure Emperor!"

A wave of scorching blue-white fire erupted around Ace, enveloping his body in a blazing aura. The air warped around him.

This wasn't just him controlling fire—it was pure heat radiating from the flame itself.

The pressure was immense. The temperature alone altered the air's density, distorting the atmosphere.

Ryuunosuke, unfazed, smiled. "It's stronger than before, sure... but still too focused on the flash."

"One day, when you stop limiting yourself to the shape of your flames, and instead focus all your will on the heat itself... that's when you'll truly be strong."

"Like this."

SuddenlyRyuunosuke's body surged with electricity.

"Pzzzzzz..."

Arcs of lightning exploded from his hands. His hair stood on end, crackling with electric energy. A glowing aura of voltage encased his body.

"Bang!"

In a flash, he vanished.

"Boom!"

Before Ace could even react, Ryuunosuke's punch slammed into him. He flew backward, flames trailing behind him. Some of Ace's white-blue fire clung to Ryuunosuke's fist.

"Huh... These flames are pretty sticky," Ryuunosuke muttered, shaking his hand.

With a wave, he used telekinesis to strip the fire away and flung it to the ground. Then—he vanished again.

---

What followed wasn't a fight.

It was a one-sided beatdown.

Ace kept pushing himself, and his Observation Haki began to evolve under pressure.

He started catching glimpses of Ryuunosuke's movements—predicting them even.

But it didn't matter.

His body simply couldn't react fast enough.

This was the first time Ace felt... slow.

Weak. Outclassed.

He'd always been among the top five in close combat among the Whitebeard Pirates.

But now?

Now he felt like a punching bag.

---

"I give up..." Ace dropped to the ground, breathing hard. "You're not human, are you, bro?"

If it were a close match—if he'd even had a chance—he wouldn't have quit. But this wasn't even a contest. He couldn't do anything.

No point in continuing.

"You've grown a lot, Ace. Your strength now... even Whitebeard might be impressed when you get back."

"But here—let me show you something. Watch carefully."

"I can't use this too many times."

As he spoke, the lightning around Ryuunosuke faded.

In its place, an orange-golden flame began to burn.

It wasn't flashy—but it was intense.

Behind Ryuunosuke, a giant fireball began to form—pure, condensed flame energy. It crackled with terrifying power.

It wasn't just heat. It was wild, violent, alive.

Even from a distance, Ace could tell—it far surpassed the power of the Flame-Flame Fruit.

"Looks like the captain won again."

"Well duh, even if it's Ace the Fire Fist, he's still just the captain's goofy little brother!"

"Honestly, I think our captain could take on Whitebeard next."

"Captain's too badass..."

Onboard the ship, the crew's resident hype squad started shouting again, chanting Ryuunosuke's praises like a pack of cheerleaders.

Thanks to their powerful Observation Haki, both Ryuunosuke and Ace could hear every word.

Ace ignored them. His attention was fixed on the flame.

"That fire... does it have a name?" Ace asked, walking toward Ryuunosuke with awe in his eyes.

As a flame user himself, he could feel it.

Not fear in his heart—but fear in the fire within his body.

His own flames... were scared.

Even his Devil Fruit felt afraid.

Ryuunosuke smiled.

"This is the base form of Pure Fire."

"It can still evolve. I believe one day, your flames will surpass even this."

Then, with a wave of his hand, the fireball vanished.

This flame—Pure Fire—was a prize from the roulette system. A limited-use power-up.

Ryuunosuke had three chances to use it.

And he thought this was the perfect time—to inspire Ace.

Ace nodded solemnly... and flew back to the ship.
