One Piece: My Crew is from Other World

Chapter 281: Health Bar Card!



In the ever-shifting seas of the New World...

"Captain, there's news of an imminent attack on Shimotsuki Village."

"Then we should let Kuina know," Najenda said, handing over the intel.

Ryuunosuke was lounging on the ship's stern, his eyes half-closed. Ever since his clash with Kaido, his body had been undergoing significant changes. The power he absorbed from that battle had yet to stabilize, and he had been spending most of his time meditating and observing those subtle shifts.

"Shimotsuki Village, huh?" he muttered, glancing at Najeta. "You don't need to worry. Yahiko's already there."

His tone was calm, but carried the weight of confidence.

"And that village isn't nearly as vulnerable as outsiders think. Shimotsuki Koshiro trained monsters like Zoro and Kuina. The other disciples might not match their talent, but after all these years, they've formed a formidable group of swordsmen."

Even if Yahiko didn't intervene, Ryuunosuke wasn't concerned. But with Yahiko there, the village was in excellent hands.

"By the way, Captain, Nojiko says we're about four to five days from our destination. Should we begin updating intelligence for the rest of the crew?"

"Not yet. Let it ride for now."

He gave her a small smile. "You should take a break too, Najenda. Some things can't be forced."

Najenda nodded. "Understood, Captain."

She was the First Division Captain and one of Ryuunosuke's earliest allies. Her sense of duty often pushed her beyond reasonable limits. That kind of dedication made Ryuunosuke trust her implicitly—but it also made him worry. Even a blade needs rest.

Once Najenda had gone, Ryuunosuke raised his hand and brought up his system panel.

Title: Captain of the Dragon Hunter Pirates Total Reputation: 1.68 million

Without hesitation, Ryuunosuke tapped the unopened 1.5 million reputation gift pack.

This was the reward from his battle with Kaido. Most of the physical enhancements had already been absorbed, but this pack promised something unique.

"System, open the 1.5M Reputation Gift Pack."

Ding! Congratulations to the host! You have obtained: 3 Absolute Health Bar Experience Cards.

Ryuunosuke blinked. "Health bars? Are you serious?"

Sure, he understood the concept. In games, health bars indicated how close someone was to dying. But this was reality. This was the brutal world of One Piece, where if you died—you were dead.

Still, curiosity got the better of him. He tapped on the card description.

[Absolute Health Bar Experience Card] Upon use, grants the user a visible health bar. As long as the health bar isn't depleted, all injuries can be ignored. The user fights at full strength until the bar is gone.

[Special Effect: Red Blood Rampage] Host-exclusive. When the health bar turns red (critical), all attributes are boosted by 15%.

He raised an eyebrow.

"Now that's broken."

Fifteen percent. At his current level, that was astronomical. Recruiting five new elite crew members wouldn't even match this one-time boost. And that's without considering the sheer tactical advantage of ignoring injuries mid-battle.

There were no side effects, either.

With Life Essence—his healing artifact—in hand, Ryuunosuke could become nearly unkillable. In an all-out war against the World Government, this could be the difference between victory and annihilation.

He couldn't help but chuckle.

"Captain's laughing again..."

Princess peeked around the mast, watching him.

"Every time he fights or gets something big, he ends up like this," Akamee explained casually.

"He looks too happy," Princess muttered.

Then she glanced sideways. "Akame, you and Kuina... you both like the Captain, right?"

Akame nearly choked. "W-What?! Where did that come from?!"

"I remember what happened last time," Princess added slyly.

Akame flushed crimson. She wasn't the only one—Kuina, who stood nearby sharpening her blade, paused slightly, her grip tightening.

Ever since learning about the attack on Shimotsuki Village, Kuina had been on edge. She knew the strength of the swordsmen there, but if their abilities were exposed, enemies would come swarming.

They couldn't rely on Yahiko forever.

...

Meanwhile, in the East Blue—

Yahiko stood on the deck of a small cruiser, eyes narrowed.

Before him loomed a massive, iconic ship.

"The Red Force... Red-Haired Shanks?"

Yahiko frowned. "Why are you in my way?"

His mission was clear: protect Shimotsuki Village. But now, one of the Four Emperors had appeared, blocking his path.

And judging by the tension in the air, this encounter wasn't going to be just a friendly hello…
