"Hey, Ren..."

"They are just insignificant little pirates. There is no need to kill them, right?"

"You're right, even if the Foxy Pirates are enemies, they shouldn't be punished to death, right?"

"Besides, it's a bit too much for you to be cruel to those ladies who pose no threat... Even if they are pirates, it's too cruel!"

"You've always acted like this, from Logue Town to Battleship Island, to the Whiskey Mountains of the Grand Line, the Drum Kingdom, Alabasta, Jaya Island, and the G-8 branch... Now to Long Ring Island, you're still acting like this!"

"Sanji is right. You are too bloody. How many people have you killed so far?"

"Sorry, Ren, I can't stand your behavior anymore..."

"To be honest, Ren, you are a little too crazy. It makes me a little scared and uneasy!"

"I don't want my companions to really become out-and-out murderers..."

"Me too!"

"Forget it, do you all think I did something wrong?"

"If this is the case, then from today on, we are no longer partners!"

"Wait, Ren, what are you talking about?"

"We just hope that you can restrain yourself in the future..."

"Needless to say, from today on, I quit the Straw Hats Pirate Crew!"

"Hey, Ren, calm down and stop joking!"

"I'm serious!"

Grand Line.

A long chain of islands connected end to end in a circular shape.

One of the small islands.

Beside a gurgling stream.

A tall young figure suddenly woke up from his sleep.

"Huh...am I dreaming again?" Ren threw away the empty wine bottle in his hand and held his head, which was a little dizzy: "It's been three or four days already!"

He washed my face by the stream and woke myself up.

His gray-white broken hair and stubble-covered face could not hide his handsomeness.

A pair of deep black eyes looked up at the blue sky, silent for a long time.

It has been seventeen years since I woke up and traveled to this sea.

Since childhood, I have lived with my parents on a remote and uninhabited island.

My father is also a powerful swordsman who could use flying slashes and his race is quite special.

But at the age of four or five because there were fewer and fewer prey on the island.

His father went to the deep sea alone to hunt sea beasts.

Unexpectedly, the smell of blood attracted a large number of Sea Kings but when he was fighting in the sea with the Sea Kings who kept swarming and attacked him like crazy.

Most of his shoulder was accidentally bitten off by the ferocious teeth of the Sea Kings. Shortly after dragging his scarred body back, he died of his serious injuries.

The mother was even more devastated and died of depression soon after.

Unfortunately, Ren became an orphan directly.

He survived alone in the deep mountains and old forests.

Because the island he was located on was a deserted island adjacent to the Calm Belt, there are many huge sea beasts and even more ferocious Sea Kings lurking in the nearby waters.

Unwilling to be ordinary, in order to be able to protect himself and survive in this cruel sea, he was unwilling to be trapped and die on this island.

He endured loneliness and persisted in practicing in the deep mountains and wild forests, practicing the swordsmanship taught by his father.

It was based on the memories in his mind.

He also studied hard and practiced repeatedly.

With his own understanding, he not only awakened Observation Haki very early but also figured out soru, geppo & other Rokushiki on his own and mastered them proficiently.

Until the age of seventeen, he trained hard. When he thought he had the power to protect himself, only then did he start sailing out to sea with a raft.

One person and one sword kept killing the large sea beasts and Sea Kings that attacked him one after another, and managed to break out of the dangerous sea area.

He planned to gather companions and head to the Grand Line.

Unfortunately, he underestimated the dangers of the sea, even in waters with a relatively mild climate like East Blue. A sudden storm caused his raft to fall apart.

Carrying a piece of wood, he drifted for three days and three nights. Fortunately, he didn't deserve to die. He was rescued by a merchant ship on its way to Logue town.

But he originally didn't plan to join the members of the Straw Hats, but in the end it was a step too late. On a whim, he accepted the invitation of Straw Hat Luffy in Logue Town, joined the Straw Hat Crew and boarded the Going Merry.

Since joining the Straw Hats. In the thrilling adventures and one battle after another. He has always been vigilant and learned those bloody lessons.

Adhering to the good habit of "last hit", he will show no mercy to any incoming enemy. Try to nip potential threats in the bud as much as possible and prevent them from threatening his companions.

Living alone in the deep mountains and forests for a long time has made Ren's character somewhat cold and advocating the laws of nature.

Needless to say, those pirates who are extremely vicious and do not know whether to live or die come to find trouble.

He also doesn't have any good feelings towards Marines, who are lackeys of the World Government. He has always been merciless and cruel and he himself is like Demon who came out of the bloody purgatory. Therefore, he got the nickname "Blood Demon".

Three days ago.

He even did not hesitate to destroy the Foxy Pirates who tried to challenge the Straw Hat Pirates and capture their partners through the so-called pirate game.

But he never thought that what he would get in the end would be the incomprehension and questioning of these "companions".

I realized that everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates were somewhat repelled and disgusted by his frequent "killings" and "indiscriminate killing of innocents".

Finally, a disheartened Ren, three days ago, despite the dissuasion and retention of other members of the Straw Hat Crew, he resolutely quit the Straw Hat Pirates.

He left the Going Merry alone and was stranded on Long Ring Island.

"I have always believed that since we are enemies, we should kill them without mercy and never give them any chance to grow stronger in future and take revenge on us..."

Ren's eyes were dim as he looked at the sea in the distance. "Maybe I took it for granted. No wonder I have always felt that I am incompatible with you who are too naive and romantic..."

No longer immersed in those memories of the past. Ren, who didn't want to be decadent anymore, clenched his fists.

His eyes gradually turned to fortitude and determination, and there was no longer any confusion.

Once obsessed with the Straw Hat Pirates.

At this moment, it completely dissipated.

From now on, he, Hirotaka Ren, lives only for himself.

The exciting and thrilling experiences he had with the Straw Hat Crew in the past will also be buried deep in his heart.

"We have different paths and we don't want to work together... I hope we all live well in the future!"

"Goodbye, Straw Hat Pirates and..."

"Going Merry!"
