One Piece: My Crew is from Other World-Chapter 46: Calm, Ace Explodes!

Chapter 46: Calm, Ace Explodes!

On a quiet, isolated island, two figures stood facing each other. The air between them crackled with tension.

"Lu Yu, I know you've made serious progress," Ace said, his eyes narrowing.

"You've built a solid pirate crew too. But if you think you can take me down easily... you've got another thing coming!"

As he spoke, flames ignited in his palm—just a small ball of fire, but the heat it radiated distorted the surrounding air.

This wasn't just for show. The temperature alone could burn an ordinary person to ashes.

"The power of the Flame-Flame Fruit, huh?" Lu Yu muttered with interest.

"Ace... show me what that Fire Fist of yours can really do."

Without waiting, Lu Yu unsheathed Ame-no-Habakiri.

With a single, clean slash, the surrounding grass and trees were cut down, clearing the battlefield instantly.

"A swordsman, huh?" Ace raised a brow.

"I wonder who's stronger between you and Vista from the Whitebeard Pirates."

"But you're losing today, Lu Yu. And after that, you're coming with me. Join my crew, and maybe then you'll find the answer."

He grinned and mimicked a pistol with his fingers.

"Fire Gun!"

Toot toot toot...

Flames exploded from his hand, turning into countless bullets of fire that flew at terrifying speed, each packed with deadly force and piercing power.

"Rinnegan!" Lu Yu activated his ability instantly.

Thanks to the enhanced dynamic vision and his Observation Haki, every single flame bullet's path became crystal clear to him.

He didn't dodge. He didn't flinch.

He just stood tall, calm, and walked straight toward Ace.

The fire bullets whizzed past him, deliberately missing his body as if the flames themselves feared to touch him.

"You... didn't dodge at all?" Ace muttered, stunned.

"Fire Fist!"

Ace's signature move roared to life—an enormous fist of flame surged forward like a runaway train.

Lu Yu's body shifted in an eerie motion, slipping past the fire with ease.

Then, in a flash, he charged straight at Ace.

"Firefly Flame Buddha!"

Just before Lu Yu could strike, sparks danced into the air.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Explosions erupted all around. Smoke and dust swallowed Lu Yu whole.

Ace took a few cautious steps back, chuckling nervously. "Heh... I didn't overdo it, did I?"

But deep down, Ace felt something he hadn't expected—pressure.

He hadn't even landed a proper hit on Lu Yu yet, and from the speed and fluidity of Lu Yu's movement, Ace knew this wasn't the same guy they once protected.

Lu Yu's strength might not be greater than his—but it was dangerously close.

One mistake... and it could end badly.

"Honestly? That was kind of weak," Lu Yu's voice rang out.

He stepped out from the cloud of dust, completely unharmed. Not even his clothes had a speck of soot.

"Seriously, Ace, is this what you've done with the Flame-Flame Fruit since you got it?"

"Feels like you're just trying to warm me up."

"The Flame-Flame Fruit is about more than fire. It's about heat, combustion, and sticking power."

"So what are you playing at?"

Ace's eye twitched. "Yo, Lu Yu... We're sparring here. Isn't that a little arrogant?"

"Fire Fist: Big Explosion!"

Ace had enough. Lu Yu's trash talk got under his skin.

This time, when he launched a Fire Fist, it detonated mid-air—just before reaching Lu Yu—to prevent him from sidestepping again.

The explosive shockwave rippled across the battlefield, heat and force swirling together for maximum destruction.

"You better start using Observation Haki properly, Ace," Lu Yu's voice came from behind.

"Or I might just take your head."

Ace turned just in time to feel a sharp slash at his neck—Lu Yu's blade had struck clean.

But instead of blood, a burst of flame replaced Ace's body.

His elemental transformation saved him.

He leapt back, sweat forming on his brow.

"Lu Yu, are you serious right now!?"

"That was Armament Haki! You actually tried to kill me!"

"If I hadn't transformed fast enough, I'd be dead!"

Lu Yu scratched his ear, unfazed.

"You're not dead though, are you?"

"Come on, let's keep going. I believe in your strength."

"And hey, I warned you. If you can't react fast enough, you don't deserve to win."

Ace's expression hardened.

At first, he thought Lu Yu had just gotten stronger.

Now, he realized—Lu Yu was on a whole different level.

His fighting instincts, strength control, and even his ability to manipulate an opponent mid-battle...

When the hell did Lu Yu become this damn strong?

"Alright then," Ace said through gritted teeth.

"I won't hold back anymore. Get ready for the full force of my rage!"

In an instant, his body turned to flames, rocketing into the air.

The ground beneath them scorched as the flames around him burned so hot that even the stones started to melt.

Ace wasn't just throwing out fancy moves—he'd been working hard on developing his fruit's potential.

Finally, the heat felt real. Dangerous.

Still, it wasn't enough to faze Lu Yu.

"Flame Emperor: Cage!"

"Flame Emperor: Cage Destruction!"

Ace flew higher, then slammed his palms together.

Two massive orbs of fire formed—his most powerful attack: Entei.

BOOM!

The explosion obliterated everything nearby—trees gone, the sea erupting into waves from the force.

Watching from afar, Kuina's jaw dropped.

"Are they really brothers?" she asked.

"They're fighting like enemies ready to kill each other!"

Najenda chuckled. "Well, Kuina, don't you have Observation Haki?"

"Yeah, but the captain—"

Najenda cut her off, her tone more serious now.

Kuina activated her Haki, eyes scanning the battlefield.

There, emerging from the aftermath of the explosion, was Lu Yu—walking out completely unscathed.

A translucent shield surrounded him, untouched by flame or debris.

Not even a fleck of dust clung to him.

Then, oddly enough, Lu Yu bent down and rubbed some ash and soot on his face and clothes.

Kuina blinked. "Wait... is he... dirtying himself on purpose?"
