"What!?"

"I disagree…"

"Ren, why did you do that!"

"Robin is our companion..."

For a while, after hearing Ren say this, everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates were a little angry and dissatisfied. Except for Nami, who looked a little complicated and hesitated to speak, everyone else glared at Ren.

"Ren, you bastard, where is Robin-san?" Sanji ran up angrily and wanted to grab Ren's collar: "You can't take her away!" Ren disappeared in front of Sanji in an instant. He was like a ghost, suddenly appearing directly behind him.

"Clang!!" At the same time, he wrapped around his right arm in Armament Haki and easily blocked the incoming blade.

"Ren, if you want to leave, I have no objection. After all, everyone has their own ambitions..." Zoro held two swords in his hands, looked directly at Ren, and said in a deep voice: "But if you want to steal our companions, I can't turn a blind eye!"

"Gum-Gum Pistol!" Suddenly, a rubber fist struck like lightning: "Ren, give Robin back to us!"

Boom!!

Ren punched out with his left fist. He shook hard with the incoming fist mark. At the same time, something red flashed across his eyes. Without hesitation, his right leg kicked out.

"Diable Jambe!" Sure enough, the next attack came. There was a whistle like sound. Sanji was furious and kicked him hard but it was accurately blocked by Ren's right leg.

"Although I don't know what's going on...but if this is the case, then I can't just sit idly by! Strong Right!"

Unexpectedly, a huge steel fist hit hard. It was Franky who had already settled his differences with the Straw Hat Crew, and regarded them as good friends. Seeing Luffy and others joining forces, he took action without hesitation but Ren's head tilted slightly to one side and he dodged the incoming fist.

"Chopper, Usopp..." Looking at Chopper who was about to rush up, and Usopp who was lying there struggling to pick up the slingshot and try to aim at himself, Ren's eyes were stern and murderous: "Do you two want to dance too?"

Ren didn't use Conqueror's Haki but his whole person exuded a fierce murderous aura. The two people couldn't help but change their color in shock and trembled a little.

"Gum-Gum Gatling!!!"

"Three Sword Style • Onigiri!!"

"Diable Jambe!!"

Boom...Boom...

In an instant, the thick wall was mercilessly blasted through. Smoke and dust billowed and rocks flew.

"Really, I'm too lazy to fight with you..." Ren, who easily dodged to the side and remained unharmed, shrugged helplessly. He took out a tone dial and threw it to the angry and hostile Straw Hat Crew: "As expected, Robin understands you. She asked me to give this to you!"

Luffy, who was about to charge forward again, couldn't help but catch dial. He was somewhat confused but he still subconsciously pressed the play button.

"Sorry, Luffy, Nami, Sanji, Zoro, Usopp, and Chopper. Thank you for your company and care along the way. Please forgive me for saying goodbye to you in this way!" Robin's calm and gentle voice came out.

The Straw Hat Crew couldn't help but be shocked: "Robin..." One by one, they temporarily put aside their hostility towards Ren and listened carefully.

"Actually, the reason why I boarded the Going Merry and joined the Straw Hats in the first place was because of Ren. It was this man who pulled me back from the abyss of despair and saved me in critical moments time and time again. Maybe you will think why I left suddenly before, but what I want to say is that when he left the crew, I already wanted to leave with him!"

"It's just that I didn't believe in Ren's power at the time and didn't want to involve him in the danger. I'm very sorry. I clearly knew that staying in the Straw Hat Pirates would bring danger to you, but I still selfishly stayed on the Merry but now, Ren has used his own power to prove that he can protect me, and he also needs my power."

"So I am preparing to leave Straw Hat Crew, but please believe that the reason why I made the decision to leave is not just because I am afraid of putting you all in harm's way but because I really want to adventure with Ren, be by his side and support him!"

"I hope you can respect my decision. Also, I'm really sorry about the iceberg thing! I hope everyone will take care of yourself in the future!"

After listening to what Robin said, everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates looked at each other in confusion. Luffy held his straw hat tightly and lowered his head in a depressed tone: "Robin, is this your choice?"

Nami also had a complicated face. She had to admit, she liked Ren too but unlike Robin, it was impossible for her to leave the Straw Hat Pirates at this time and abandon Luffy & the others.

"Ren... Am I not worthy of being a captain?" Luffy was like a deflated balloon, and he collapsed on the ground. He looked at Ren and said mockingly: "First you Ren, then Robin, then Usopp, you all left one by one...

"Luffy, I actually..." Hearing those words, Usopp on the side looked ashamed and lowered his head. Previously, he was indeed too aggressive and selfish. He thought only of himself, completely ignoring how Luffy would feel but after seeing himself being hurt, this captain should have been full of anger towards his unruly crew member who broke away without authorization, logically speaking, he should have just stood aside and allowed him to fend for himself.

But he stepped forward without hesitation and still regarded him as his companion. He was not even being sarcastic.

"Luffy...."

"Don't say that, it's not your fault!"

"Yes, aren't we all still here?"

"Luffy, you still have us, don't be discouraged..."

"Ren and Robin's departure is their own choice!"

Sanji, Zoro, Nami and others stepped forward. They all looked worriedly at Luffy, who was shocked and depressed as his companions left one after another.

"No, you actually did a good job, it's just that everyone has their own ambitions." Ren didn't deliberately add insult to injury, and said calmly: "At least, even if you have such shortcomings, in the eyes of Nami, Zoro, Sanji and other crew members, you should still be relatively qualified!"

"Robin and I left just because our fates have been involved since the beginning of time!"

"As for Usopp, he did it because of the Merry...but I can't understand..." At this point, Ren paused, looked at Usopp who was hesitant to speak and said directly: "Usopp, have you met the Ship Spirit of Merry?"

"What!?"

"Ship Spirit?"

"Hey, does that kind of thing really exist?" For a while, Nami, Luffy, Zoro and others, as well as Franky, were all shocked. He looked at Ren and Usopp lying there in disbelief.

"Woooo...wowwowwow..." At this time, Usopp couldn't hold it in any longer. With tears streaming down her face, he cried loudly and said: "Merry, it is really our companion. I really can't abandon it!"

"I had already seen it when I was at Sky Island...Actually, it wasn't someone else who repaired the Merry at that time. It was it, wearing a raincoat and holding a hammer, that repaired itself step by step!"

"Although I have only seen it once, and it was like a dream, I am convinced that it was not a dream, it really exists..."

"Merry..." Luffy, Nami, Zoro, Sanji, Chopper and others couldn't help but trembled all over. With a face full of disbelief, Luffy looked at Usopp blankly: "Usopp..."

"Ren, did you already know this?" Nami looked at Ren and asked incredulously.

"Although I can't see the ship spirit, my Observation Haki is very special and can sense the existence of Merry." Ren shrugged.

His Observation Haki can indeed vaguely sense Merry's emotions. It has never had any complaints, but was happy from the bottom of its heart that it could continue to carry everyone sailing on this sea and experience those wonderful adventures.

But even he can't save Merry. Unless Merry never entered the Grand Line, a sea area with treacherous weather and unpredictable dangers from the very beginning but for a ship, isn't it a blessing to have such a magnificent and exciting journey? Its life was short, but it enjoy it as sweet as a cake

"There have always been rumors like this on the sea." Franky was full of disbelief and lost his voice: "If a ship's crew members care for each other and take care of the ship, when the ship got close to the crew to a certain extent, in order to repay the favor, the ship transforms into a 'spirit' holding a hammer and wearing a raincoat, just like the crew. I didn't expect the legend of the Ship Spirit to be true!"
