"My name is Carina, I'm also from East Blue..." She stared at Ren who was similar in age to her but incredibly powerful.
Hearing that the other party had quit the Straw Hat Crew, Carina was a little surprised and said with a smile: "Thank you so much just now, otherwise I might have been caught up by those guys... Stop standing, please sit down!"
"By the way, speaking of which, Nami, the navigator of the Straw Hat Pirates, and I are old acquaintances!" She was full of curiosity about the vice-captain who informed her that he had quit the Straw Hat Pirates.
"Really? Are you still Nami's friend?" Ren sat down. It was not surprising to hear Carina say this. He was naturally aware of the intersection between Carina and Nami.
"Of course, I was once her savior, but I haven't seen her for a long time!" With a playful wink, Carina said with a smile.
She was a companion of Nami. Both of them have been wandering the sea since they were very young. They survive by stealing the treasures of nobles, wealthy merchants and pirates. They have cooperated more than once.
A few years ago, there was a treasure hunter who had his eye on the treasure. Nami was caught by the other party. Later, she was threatened by the treasure hunter and asked to hand over the stolen treasure in order to save Nami's life. As a result, she took the treasure, abandoned Nami and ran away alone.
'Maybe Nami still hates me now?' Carina thought to herself. But in fact, she didn't really abandon Nami and run away.
She knew very well the treasure hunter's ferocious character. If she really handed over the treasure obediently, neither of them would survive.
To keep both people alive. She decisively took the treasures and ran away, making herself a bait for treasure hunter.
But at the same time, she didn't really leave Nami alone, but hid nearby and watched secretly.
If the treasure hunter didn't let Nami go, she would've tried to find a way to save her.
Of course, there were considerable risks in doing so but in desperation, that was the only way she could think of otherwise, both of them would've been killed by treasure hunter.
Time keeps passing. The small sailing boat moved forward slowly. Carina, who was flexible and intelligent, was surprisingly enthusiastic.
Having honed her communication skills over the years by hanging out on the ocean, she started chatting with Ren. Soon, the two gradually became familiar with each other.
"Tsk, tsk, you guys have really experienced a lot of wonderful adventures..." Listening to Ren telling her the adventures of the Straw Hat Pirates these days, Carina's eyes were filled with wonder. She was amazed.
"I didn't expect that there are actually islands 10,000 meters high in the sky. It's incredible..." She felt a little emotional, and couldn't help but feel excited about the Sky Island and City of Gold mentioned by Ren: "Does the legendary city really exist? I thought it was just a rumor!"
She was known as the "Phantom Thief". Carina's thirst for treasure was no less intense than Nami's. Especially, the golden bell made her eyes shine. She wished she could run to Sky Island immediately and steal it.
"If you really want to steal that golden bell, I advise you to give up... That thing has become their belief, and those guys from the Shandia tribe will go crazy." Looking at Carina's pretty face, she was a little moved.
Ren shrugged nonchalantly, knowing that this girl had an occupational disease.
"Ahem, how could that happen?" <Carina>
Her big round eyes looked at Ren with admiration and she praised him half-seriously: "But you are really awesome, Ren! You can easily defeat even a powerful opponent like Enel!"
"That's nothing..." Ren waved his hand.
Although he was not like Luffy, as an ability user of the Mythical Zoan Human-Human Fruit, Model: Sun God Nika, he was naturally able to defeat Enel, who was a user of the logia Rumble-Rumble Fruit.
But he has mastered Armament Haki. He is a member of the Lunarian tribe. With his cheat-like racial talent, he was born with unimaginable defensive power.
He wasn't afraid of Enel's attack at all. Those high-voltage electric shocks can easily reach tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of volts.
It was basically ineffective against him and did not pose much of a threat. Coupled with Enel's arrogant character, he only knows how to rely on fruit abilities, and his physical skills were terrible. It wasn't difficult to kill the opponent.
"That's not something everyone can do..." Carina asked curiously: "But, what are your plans next? Are you really not planning to return to the Straw Hat Pirates?"
Boom...
Suddenly, just as he was about to send an invitation to Carina, a dark cannonball suddenly blasted over from a distance.
A huge splash exploded on the sea more than ten meters away. There was an astonishing wave, and the small boat was rocking a little.
"Um?" Ren frowned and looked over. His eyes couldn't help but condense, a little surprised.
"Ha... Marines?" <Ren>
Carina was startled when she saw clearly that they were firing and attacking.
Some panicked and cried out because on the distant sea, a large battleship and several medium-sized battleships appeared there at some unknown time. They were forming a V-shaped formation and heading in their direction menacingly.
Some artillerymen were constantly adjusting the settings of the naval guns. The black muzzles of the cannons had begun to align towards the two of them. The cannonball they just fired was a test firing.
"It is really troublesome!" Looking at the Marine fleet approaching slowly. Ren shrugged, with a relaxed expression, and said to Carina, who was a little nervous in front of him: "However, it seems that they didn't come because of me in the first place. They probably wanted to chase down the Tiger Shark Pirates whom I have already killed! They just discovered me, so they launched an attack!"
"What should we do?" Carina was a little flustered. She looked at Ren in front of him.
Although she was well-known as "Phantom Thief", she was not wanted by the Marines.
If she was found with such a cruel pirate as Ren, the "Blood Demon" of the Straw Hat Pirates, Marines will most likely regard her as his ally.
By then, she might be wanted directly. Then she won't be able to think about having a peaceful life anymore.
"Otherwise, you pretend to be holding me hostage..." His eyes rolled.
Carina thought of a good idea. Then, in Ren's speechless eyes. She actually took off her felt hat, messed up her purple hair, and tore her jacket.
"When Marine comes here, just leave me alone and leave!"
