Women are bad, especially the beautiful ones, since they make men crazy and unable to make love with them.
Still, watching this young woman, who acted like a timid, yet fragile bird, showing her most natural charm that caused any man to feel that they should protect her, Shinra was cold and directly slapped the back of her head.
Slap!
"It hurts!" The young woman cried as she held the back of her head in pain. "What are you doing?!"
When she asked angrily, Shinra asked blankly, "Do you even need to ask that question? Why am I angry at you?"
"...."
The young woman was at a loss for a while, then quickly begged with tears in her eyes. "But, what can I do? I am just a weak woman, and they want to sell me as a slave! Please help me!"
"YOU BITCH! HOW DARE YOU STEAL OUR TREASURES! MAD TREASURE-SAMA IS GOING TO GET MAD!"
"....."
Shinra didn't say anything and just stared at this young woman in silence. Even though she tried to cover herself with a large hat, as he slapped the back of her head, her long purple hair was displayed, tied in a bun, as was her beautiful face.
Only—
Shinra quickly looked away since he could feel Robin's naughtiness that created a hand on his thigh again as if trying to do something to him.
"Yo~! Yo~! Yo~! Carina~! How did you do all of that~! Mad-sama is going to be mad~!"
The young woman didn't just bring a group of thugs, but also a strange, petite guy in a hoodie, who kept rapping somehow.
'Carina?'
Shinra glanced at the young woman beside him, who tried to show her best smile before he stood in front of Robin to protect her and not to make her be discovered.
"...." Carina.
Still, this act also made Robin smile at Carina's direction.
"....." Carina.
Regardless, instead of Carina, Shinra was more interested in the character before him, the man with dark skin and a hoodie reminiscent of a street painter, and continued rapping. If his guess was correct, everyone before him was a follower of Mad Treasure, one of the famous pirates and a notorious treasure hunter.
More or less, Shinra had learned all the important characters that needed to be remembered or thought to have a certain potential to grow, and naturally, Mad Treasure was one of them.
How do we determine whether an individual can grow?
The answer is simple, and that was to be special or weird.
Those who could reach the peak had, more or less, a trait that was different from that of normal people. Either a genius or a simple idiot, but due to that trait, they could become stronger as they tried to walk into a path that was different from others, and naturally, whether they would reach the peak or fail in that journey, it was something that could only be decided in the future.
"Anyway, catch all of them! They look good! We can sell them for a good amount of money!"
"Let's just enjoy them for a bit—"
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
As Shinra took his gun, he shot all of them directly, a headshot, and killed them without making much of a fuss. They had planned to harm him and Robin, so why should he hesitate?
More importantly, as those people disappeared from this world, it would bring more peace to the people in this world.
Yet, those pirates who were shot and killed were stunned as they had never expected that Shinra's gunmanship was so powerful that he killed one person in a single shot!
The petite man was also startled and panicked, especially when a bullet that he tried to deflect with his shoulder entered his body!
"ARRRRGGGGHHH!!!"
While his shoulder was bloody, the man took out a spray can, and all of a sudden, his body turned invisible!
"Oh?"
What kind of Devil Fruit was this?
Shinra was somewhat curious, as he hadn't expected this man to be a Devil Fruit user.
Frankly, when he was near the Florian Triangle, he wanted to get his hands on the Suke Suke no Mi, a Devil Fruit that could make one become invisible.
Being invisible, while it might seem like a strong ability, was an amazing ability, but as the user of this Devil Fruit was more or less, one of the important characters in the story and was also the subordinate of a troublesome guy, Shinra hesitated to get this Devil Fruit, especially when he wasn't sure how much consumption was needed for him to use the Eye of Usurp on the Batto Batto no Mi, Model: Vampire.
Yet, while he hesitated, he also felt that the Devil Fruit of the man before him was good.
Using a spray paint to make himself invisible, what kind of Devil Fruit was that?
As he thought so, he tried to use the regeneration power that he gained from the Kaiju No. 9 and Meireki Giant Kaiju on the world of Kaiju No. 8.
The regeneration power of the Kaiju, especially those powerful ones, was crazy since the Kaiju No. 9 even used its own fingers to shoot a bullet.
As Shinra robbed such ability from the Kaiju No. 9, of course, his regeneration was crazy, and it helped him to recover his eyes, but he had to say, sometimes, the thought of having his eyes blind made him helpless, especially when he hadn't gained the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan as he was sure that the process of evolving his eyes would take a lot of energy and might even turn his eyes blind, but the ability of this man was far quite good as it could help him for his trip later.
With that determination, Shinra made up his mind and shot the man's limbs, so the man couldn't escape!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
All the bullets hit every part that was intended by Shinra, and the man fell directly on the ground as he screamed in pain.
"B-BOSS DEFINITELY WILL AVENGE ME! IF YOU DARE TO DO ANYTHING TO ME, THEN—"
The man was in fear, but tried to threaten him, but Shinra didn't show any mercy, since if he was weak, what would happen to him?
Shinra activated his Sharingan, then learned about the Devil Fruit that was eaten by this man.
Iro Iro no Mi.
It is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to create paint with various effects.
Shinra didn't hesitate and used the Eye of Usurp, but as he gained the ability of Iro Iro no Mi, an arrow was shot in his direction!
Bang!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!
As expected, it wasn't a normal arrow as Shinra noticed a purple-like substance near the tip of the arrow, and as he shot it, the arrow released a powerful explosion, which made him wonder what kind of substance it was, but before that, he knew he had to defeat the large and powerful man before him.
"JARARARARA! HOW DARE YOU KILL MY FOLLOWERS, BOY?!"
Along with his entire group, Mad Treasure looked at Shinra with pure killing intent!
