This graceful bearing gives the impression that this is very much like a noble duke of a kingdom!

"His name is Ryder~"

Link's gaze also turned to the living legend, and said indifferently:

"[Red Earl] Baroric Redfield, a man who used to be in the same era as Roger One Piece and Whitebeard."

"He is also known as [The Lonely Red] and [The Earl of Red]. He is extremely powerful. He was evaluated by the current Admiral Sengoku as an existence that is on par with Roger and Whitebeard alone!"

Was so personally evaluated by the Admiral? !

A look of shock appeared in the eyes of everyone.

They don't know how many times they have been shocked since they came here.

But every big pirate who reveals his identity has a great background, and their ability is fully worthy of their name.

"And (cfbg) is a legendary pirate..."

Luo also breathed a sigh of relief, concealing his inner surprise.

"As expected of the sixth floor of the advance city, it's really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. There are all kinds of powerful characters..."

There, he sighed with emotion that the turbulent emotions in other people's hearts were not much less than him.

Especially the members of the Straw Hat Pirates~

"Ryder?"

Brooke said in his heart, "I seem to have heard this name before."

There he was lost in thought.

"Wait, you just said..."

And Nami, her tone was still a little shocked and said, "I also want to drink our little brother's wine with Shiliu?!"

"seriously?!"

Usopp and Chopper were very afraid to believe:

"Aren't you a pirate with a great reputation in the sea? Why did you choose to join our pirate group?!"

"That's right~"

Sanji followed with an aggravated tone and said, "Although our pirate group is not bad, there is nothing wrong with it. It's worthy of a character like you to condescend to join, right?!"

His expression was a little solemn, "What purpose do you have?!"

"Yes, if it is Ryder, it is absolutely impossible to join any forces!"

Ivankov, who was next to him, was also shocked, and quickly followed.

"'Lonely Ryder', this is the consensus of everyone in the sea!"

"With a withdrawn personality, without any companions, alone, he hates forming alliances with others, and takes loneliness as his creed, this is the real Ryder!"

The more Ivankov said it, the more incomprehensible he felt, "How could Ryder like this form an alliance with someone?!"

"If it's someone else, the old man really doesn't have any desire to approach and talk, let alone form an alliance..."

Ryder shook the red eyebrows on his forehead, and a fiery flash flashed in his eyes:

"But if it was that man, everything would be different!"

that man...

Everyone followed Ryder's gaze, looked over subconsciously, and saw Brook who was leaning on crutches and meditating.

"Eh?!"

Brook, who sensed that the atmosphere was not right, came back to his senses.

He raised his head and saw that everyone's eyes were looking over, and he couldn't help but be slightly startled.

"What's wrong? Guys?"

He scratched his explosive head in confusion, "Is there anything strange?!"

"Hehehehe, I haven't seen you for decades, you really have the same tone as before."

Ryder's elegance mixed with a hint of excited laughter sounded again, "Mr. Brooke~!"

Brooke... sir? !

When a group of people heard Ryder's name, there was a faint respect? !

"Hey, Brooke, did you know this old man named Ryder before?!"

Usopp asked Brook in confusion.

"Ryder... yo hoo hoo hoo, I really seem to have heard this name before~"

In Brook's empty eyes, a flash of reminiscence flashed, "But that was a long time ago."

"Memories are getting a little blurry, yo hoo hoo hoo."

"You may have forgotten, Mr. Brooke, but I have always remembered."

Ryder's vicissitudes of life also showed a smile back to the past.

"That day, on the coast, you and I met for the first time."

"I clearly remember that when you were wearing sunglasses, when you were in the Rumba Pirates, you looked so high-spirited!"

He whispered softly, and seemed to pull his thoughts back to the coast at that time.

"Yo hoo hoo hoo, what's your name?"

"I, my name is Ryder!"

"Is it Ryder? It's really a good name, it stands for [red]! And my name sounds like [blue], don't you think?"

"Yes, is that so?!"

"Yo **** ho ho, don't be so restrained, in order to celebrate the meeting of [Red] and [Blue], do you want to come to a song?!"

"What a song... fat times?"

"Huh? How do you know I'm thinking about fat times? Ahem, that's not important! Anyway, let's sing together, yo hoo hoo hoo!"

The sun sets in the west, and the afterglow of the curtain falls on the coast.

Pull the two figures, one tall and one small, to the elder.

"My life is very grateful for the encounter at that time!"

"Ever since I met the Rumba Pirates who were resting on the shore when I was a child, and chatted with Mr. [Nose Song] Brook, I was infected by Mr. Brook's ideals and determined to become a pirate when I grew up!"

Ryder chuckled, a look of reverence flashing in his eyes.

"As far as I'm concerned, I did it, and I did it quite well. I didn't embarrass you~ Hahohohoho!"

other people:"…"

You have already become a legendary pirate, keeping pace with Whitebeard, Roger, and others. Such an achievement is not only a good thing? !

This is simply the unreachable peak of the many pirates in the sea, right? !

Everyone complained so much in their hearts, but there were bursts of shock on their faces.

"Brooke, I didn't expect you to meet such a powerful character!"

Usopp and Chopper also had starlight and admiration in their eyes, "How amazing!"

"Amazing? Yohohohoho, it's just an accidental experience in the past."

Brooke laughed cheerfully, also looking at Ryder's appearance.

Decades ago, the face of the young body on the coast gradually became clearer, and it gradually merged with the old man in front of him, which also made him see the familiar feeling.

"I didn't expect it, so many years have passed, yo hoo hoo hoo hoo."

Brooke smiled lowly, and he obviously recognized the old man in front of him, the little boy from that year.

"We've all changed. You're getting old, and I've become a pile of bones~"

"In my heart, Mr. Brook will always be that Mr. Brook, and there has never been any change."

Ryder shook his head lightly, "And to be able to meet here, even if it is a bone and an old body, this is our fate, isn't it?"

"Yo hoo hoo hoo, that's right~"

Brook smiled freely, "If I hadn't turned into a bone, I might have died long ago, and I can't see you again~"

"There is also no chance to be companions with Mr. Luffy and Mr. Link..."

He turned his head, glanced at his many companions behind him, and felt happiness fill his chest.

Ah, though he's just a skeleton without a chest.

"It was also thanks to Mr. Brook's guidance back then that allowed me to embark on the path of a pirate..."

Ryder looked at the body of bones and said softly:

"And now, seeing Mr. Brook again, I just want to listen to Mr. Brook's teachings again."

His solemn and solemn voice sounded slowly within the sixth layer of the seabed.

~~~~~~~~~

[Thanks to the 'woai..' boss for the 7,500 points reward, boss cow! ! ].

333 We hereby promise that we are willing to risk our lives to officially announce our membership to the Straw Hat Pirates!

Brook and Ryder can be seen as the relationship between Shanks and young Luffy.

The former is the leader of the latter on the path of pirates.

And whether it is Ryder or Luffy, they all have respect and admiration for their leaders!

Ryder's admiration for Brook is no less than Luffy's for Shanks.

Even in [Endless World R], after the battle with the Straw Hats, Ryder bowed his knees and asked Brook, the guide, to ask the future pirate road again.

After being re-encouraged by Brook, he decided to set off again to the sea of ​​the new world with the title of One Piece as the goal.

"I can feel that although Mr. Brook has changed a wave of companions, they are all like the seniors of the Rumba Pirates. They are a group of interesting people."

Ryder was old and elegant and smiled there, and his eyes had already spied Luffy and the others.

The reason why Ryder is called [Lonely Ryder] is because he has not found any companions since he went out to sea and became a pirate.

That's because he has the same style as Princess Yiji's, a powerful and arrogant talent!

Since he was a child, he was born with a powerful sense of domineering, and he could listen to the voices of others just like Princess Otoji, which is the so-called mind-reading technique.

And as he grows older and stronger, he can see through people's hearts!

Even if you touch each other with your palm or make physical contact with each other, you can read other people's memories!

However, when he obtained such a powerful talent, he was also used to seeing the ugly hearts of the people around him, so he greatly rejected people and developed a withdrawn character.

So as a person, walking on this sea.

Brook and the Rumba Pirates can be said to be the cleanest group of people Ryder has ever seen.

Of course, this is just a comparison, Ryder still can't understand Brooke's [fat times] hobby.

That's why he regarded Brooke as a life mentor and admired and respected him very much.

And after he peeked into the hearts of the fellows with Mr. Brooke...

"Meat?"

"liquor?"

"Beauty?"

"boast?"

"Treasure?"

"history?"
