"Jango, step forward!"
Hearing Ryuya call his name, Jango's heart leaped into his throat.
An unprecedented sense of nervousness made his face turn pale.
"Y-yes! S-sir, how do you know my name?"
Hearing Jango's words, Ryuya thought to himself: Should I tell him I'm a time traveler?
With that thought, Ryuya's aura suddenly erupted.
The terrifying aura was like a ferocious beast, directly pressing down on their hearts.
It scared them so much that they knelt down on the ship.
Ryuya's gentle expression vanished, and with a blank face, he asked Jango, "Where is Kuru of a Hundred Plans?"
Facing Ryuya, the White Dove Admiral, Jango dared not lie to him. He immediately sold out Kuru of a Hundred Plans.
"Sir, he's currently in Syrup Village. I'm willing to lead you to him, just please spare our lives."
Ryuya didn't say anything more, just calmly said, "Lead the way."
Soon, Ryuya and Jango arrived at Syrup Village.
They heard the system's electronic voice echoing in Ryuya's mind.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the sign-in quest. You have obtained the reward: Peak Medical Skill. Peak Medical Skill allows the host to directly surpass Gol D. Roger's personal doctor, Crocus. As long as someone still has a breath, there is a high possibility of saving them. It is the medical skill closest to a miracle!]
Ryuya was very satisfied with this reward from the system.
Because the practicality of Peak Medical Skill was too high. The most update n0vels are published on NovᴇlFire(.)nᴇt
It was basically a life-saving skill!
But while Ryuya was happy, Jango was extremely nervous.
Walking beside Ryuya, Jango felt like a large elephant was running wild in his heart.
He couldn't calm down at all.
"Do you know Kuru of a Hundred Plans' exact location?"
"Sir, I do. Before, the captain, I mean, Kuru and I went together. His target was the big house in the middle of the island."
On the other side, Captain Kuru was disguised as a small crew member who had been kicked off the ship for making a small mistake.
He was covered in dust and looked quite pitiful.
He had thus gained the trust of Kaya's parents and was left in the mansion as the butler.
Looking at everything in the room, a hint of heat flickered in Kuru's eyes.
"Three years. Once I've completely integrated into the life of the island, it will be your death day."
He had a cruel smile on his lips, but he quickly hid it.
Suddenly, he saw a shadow flickering outside the window.
The shadow came to a tree, then easily climbed up and knocked on the second-floor window.
The window opened, and Kaya, with her cute frown, looked at the long-nosed man in front of her with resistance.
"I told you, stop bothering me. I don't like to listen to your bragging."
Usopp, hearing Kaya's words, quickly waved his hands and said to Kaya, "No, no, no. Today's matter is really important, and I promise I'm not bragging!"
"Do you think I'll believe you? Usopp, the biggest liar in the village!"
Hearing Kaya's words, Usopp suddenly clenched his chest tightly, and said to Kaya with frustration, "Kaya, I have a disease. If I don't finish telling the story, I'll die."
Kaya was very gentle. Although she knew Usopp's pained expression was fake, she still nodded and said, "One last time."
"Alright, the story I'm going to tell you today is a rumor I heard when I went out to sea!"
Kaya knew that Usopp's "going out to sea" was just playing pretend with other kids.
But she was so gentle that she didn't want to expose Usopp.
"Today, I went out to sea and heard that there was a great pirate who was tired of life. He killed himself and prepared to start a new life. Then..."
"Usopp, you're lying again. How could you start a new life after killing yourself?"
Kaya asked her question.
Usopp's eyes twinkled. He suddenly thought of a good reason.
"It's simple. For example, I'm a pirate, and then I have someone hypnotize a Navy soldier. Then, I just find someone to replace me, and then I'm free, right?"
Kaya didn't believe Usopp's words, but her good upbringing made her want to finish listening to this unreasonable story.
But Usopp didn't know that Kuru was hiding behind the tree.
He watched Usopp on the tree with cold eyes.
Usopp felt a cold breeze blow past, but he was so busy making up stories for Kaya that he didn't care about the strange chill.
"Then, this pirate came to an island and pretended to be a small crew member. He gained people's trust and became a butler. But no one knew that his ultimate goal was to steal their property. Fortunately, a prince discovered everything, and his arrival saved everyone!"
Hearing Usopp finish the story.
Kaya was already very angry.
"Enough, Usopp. I didn't expect you to be this kind of person. Do you know that a butler came to my house today? That's why you deliberately made up this disgusting story to tell me, right? Usopp! I'll never give you another chance!"
With that, Kaya closed the window and ignored Usopp.
Usopp was stunned. He didn't understand what was going on.
"What butler? I was just bragging, I really didn't mean anything else!"
But the closed window didn't open again.
Sighing, Usopp climbed down from the tree.
He really just wanted to talk to Kaya.
As long as he could talk to Kaya, he was very happy.
"Seriously, what did I say wrong?"
Usopp kicked a stone casually, but he saw a man in a black tailcoat looking at him with a smile.
Usopp didn't recognize this person. He had never seen him on this island before.
Kuru looked at Usopp and pushed his glasses up on his nose. "I thought I was hiding perfectly, but I didn't expect you to see through me. So, to make sure my plan goes smoothly, I'm going to have to kill you first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Kuru put on his Ten-Blade "Cat Claw." The gleaming blade reflected in Usopp's pupils.
He finally knew where the cold wind had come from...
