Chapter 29: [29]A simple trick
"Klahadoll!!"
Kaya screamed, she saw her servant unconscious and his face distorted by Ren's punch.
Even though he was sure it wouldn't kill him, that punch was still too strong for him, especially since Ren's strength exceeded 20,000+ points.
Back at the scene, Kaya was screaming as she looked at Ren displeasedly.
"He is fast!" Luffy and Zoro said at the same time, they didn't even see how Ren got to Klahadoll!
Such a speed for them was currently too great.
Maron looked at all of this with a scary face, especially when he saw Nami and Nojiko looking at him with murderous intent.
"Hi, I think you're Miss Kaya, right?" Ren looked at Kaya who was watching from the window with a sick and pale face.
"Yes that is, but answer me why you did this to Klahadoll!" She answered with a weak voice and pale skin.
When she remembered what she read in the newspaper about Ren, kaya became more afraid. Does he want to kill her and steal her money?
"You'll know why I did this soon. If you want, maybe we can have a private conversation cause I have something important to discuss with you." He looked at Kaya and said directly, while grabbing kuro's unconscious body and dragging him towards Nami and Nojiko.
He returned to the two girls' side while Kaya was still thinking about his previous words, he heard Luffy's voice again: "Why did you do that?"
Luffy shouted at Ren, even though the black-clothed person had quarreled with Usopp a while ago, he still hit him like that very much.
"Oi, Luffy, this is none of our business!" Zoro wanted to stop his foolish captain from fighting against such a dangerous person, but Luffy didn't listen to him and slowly headed towards Ren.
"This is not of your business." Ren looked at Luffy walking towards him coldly, and Nami also grabbed her sword but hadn't yet drawn it.
Nojiko, who previously pointed the gun at Klahadoll, did the same to Luffy, who seemed to be looking for trouble.
As for Ren, he had some plans to take advantage of Luffy. This person has a distinguished background and it will not be easy to mess with him, but if he succeeds in his plan without any unnecessary problems, the benefits will be great.
Luffy stopped close to Ren, then opened his mouth and said:"I am the one who'll become the Pirates King!"
"...."
Ren wondered if Luffy had some mental problems?
Man, I'm not interested in that title, you can take it, just don't bother me.
Ren always wondered why Luffy repeated this phrase to every person he met.
He didn't find the answer to this yet, Ren sighed and looked at Luffy in front of him, it seems he's not stupid to fight against me just because I beat Kuro, right?
Oh right, I forgot. Luffy has an innate skill of knowing the essence of real people. Does he feel that I am not like what the marine said about me in the newspapers?
Sorry but still I have to do my plan, we are rival pirates after all and you should be prepared for any situation when you decide to become a pirate.
All these thoughts passed through Ren's mind at lightning speed, then he opened his mouth and said:
"Really? Good for you, Monkey D. Luffy."
"Wait how did you know my name?!" Luffy wondered how someone he had never met before knew his name. He had lived all his life in the mountains in Goa Kingdom among bandits, so how did he recognize him?
"It doesn't matter, I'm done talking to you. Goodbye. We'll see you soon..."
He said then turned around and looked at Kaya who nodded and wanted to hear what Ren and the rest wanted from her.
Having Nami and Nojiko with Ren gave her more confidence that they wouldn't do anything to her, right?
Perhaps this was a feeling of comfort towards people of the same gender or that Nami and Nojiko didn't appear to be evil on their faces.
Anyway, if the pirate in front of her wanted to harm her, she wouldn't be able to stop him anyway, so she wanted to know what he wanted.
At the same time, Luffy, Zoro, and Maron quickly left the palace to search for Usopp.
This person was sad cause of Kuro's previous words and they needed to talk with him.
"Captain, we'll let this person go?" Nojiko whispered to Ren and pointed to Maron, who left with Luffy and Zoro.
"There's no need to do anything now, we still have enough time to capture them." He patted her on the shoulder, then she quickly nodded and entered the palace with Ren and Nami.
A servant with white hair and a sheep-like face came to them and led them to Kaya's room with a complicated expression.
Especially when he looked at Klahadoll's unconscious body, but after remembering Miss Kaya's orders, he sighed and led the three to her room.
They arrived deaf after the servant knocked on the door and heard Kaya's voice allowing him to enter.
Ren entered with his girls and saw a girl with blonde hair and milky white skin.
But her face was pale, which indicated her deteriorating health. She was beautiful, but her illness made her lose her sparkle.
"So what do you have to say to me, Ren-san?"
Kaya avoided the greetings because she didn't want to chat too much with the people who had hurt her servant and asked directly.
"I want to show you the true face of your servant, Klahadoll." Ren said, making Kaya look at him suspiciously and annoyed.
Her servant was kind with her since 3 years ago when her deceased father saved him, so how could such a person be as bad like Ren said??
But she had no other choice and had to listen. Ren didn't want him to, or else she couldn't expect what he might do to herm
At least that's what Kaya thought in her heart, but soon her view of Ren would change 180°.

"Oi! Ussop we finally found you!"
Luffy shouted when he saw Ussop sitting in a high place looking at the vast sea in front of him.
"...."
Ussop didn't speak, and contrary to his usually cheerful and happy mood, he was currently depressed.
Luffy and the rest looked at him silently, as there were 3 young children screaming angrily when they saw their 'leader' sad.
"Damn! that insolent servant!"
"He dares to say that to the Captain Ussop..."
"I don't know why, but I always felt like he looked at us with contempt!"
The 3 children complained, but Ussop remained in the same state, staring at the blue sea that seemed to stretch on forever.
Maron and Zorro were about to talk, but they saw their captain Brett on Zorro's shoulder and said:
"Come on Ussop, do you really care what that black man says? Your father is a great and powerful pirate. He used to hit targets from a long distance....and he also can....."
.
...
....
Luffy started talking with Ussop about what Yasopp did during his stay in Fosha Village. Gradually, Ussop's mood became happy and he didn't care about Klahadoll's words, After cursing him a little, he regained his cheerful mood.
Maron looked at Luffy and asked: "By the way Captain, what do you think about that person called Ren?"
Luffy heard his friend's question and began to remember his meeting with Ren.
"Well...I don't think that person is as bad as what you guys say about him...but I feel like something is wrong when I'm around him!'
Luffy shook his head in confirmation, every time he saw Ren look at him he felt like a predator watching his prey.
He didn't like to think too much, and this was just his intuition, which never once made a slight mistake in recognizing people's intentions.
He also felt that Ren was lying when he told him that he had no interest in being the Pirates King, so he said the previous words to him before he left the palace..
Thick smoke began to rise from Luffy's head, who collapsed to the ground and said weakly: "Ahhhh!, I can't keep thinking!"
Zoro and Maron, who were accustomed to this scene, laughed hard at their captain.
They decided to keep their distance from Ren and his group, although Zoro seemed to want to fight the orange-haired swordsman but he followed the plan.

"Ugh...my head...!"
Kuro, opened his eyes in pain.
The last thing he remembered was that the pirate named Ren had disappeared and appeared in front of him...Then what happened after that?
Kuro didn't know, he just felt great pain in his face and his vision went dark... Was he unconscious?
But when he remembered what Ren said before he hit him, he felt fear and panic.
How did he know my identity?! I was well hidden in this quiet village and changed my appearance and career! how did he know?!
He told someone else? maybe Kaya?!
Many doubts ran through Kuro's mind, but he quickly stopped his train of thought when he saw the room he was in.
He was bound with iron shackles that prevented him from moving, so he could only use his eyes to discover where he was.
His glasses were broken when Ren punched him so it was a little difficult to see clearly.
"T-that?!!"
He screamed in panic when he saw that he was in Kaya's room.
But what frightened him was not this, but the scene in front of him!
There was a dead body dripping with blood on the floor near Miss Kaya's bed!
It was Kaya's servant ,Merry's body!
He looked around, trying to look for Kaya, but he couldn't find her anywhere. Then he looked at her bed.
"!!!"
The entire bed was covered in blood and Kaya's body couldn't be found anywhere.
"Fuck!"
Kuro shouted forcefully, Did Ren kill Kaya? So what will happen to his three-year plan?
"You're so noice." A voice came behind Kuro, it was Ren who entered from the door.
"You bastard! Did you kill Kaya?!"
Kuro shouted directly at Ren, seeming to have lost all pretense of rationality.
"Kaya? Didn't you call her Kaya Oju-sama? What happened, Captain Kuro?" Ren sneered at the tied up person in front of him.
"You really know who i'am! It doesn't matter! Just tell me now did you kill her or not?!"
He no longer cares about if Ren knew his identity, because if he really killed Kaya, this means that his plan has failed and his life is also in danger, so how does he care about his identity?
"Oh...you mean that girl with the blonde hair? She was annoying and kept yelling at me so I had to do this...look at that dead guy over there, he wanted to shoot me when he saw that his Miss was in danger and I had to kill him too."
Ren said a lot at once and with every word that came out of his mouth , Kuro's expression became uglier.
He began to breathe harshly while his eyes turned red like a vampire's and he screamed violently:
"Bastard!! Do you know how much I have waited to implement my plan?! I have waited 3 years in order to obtain the wealth of this spoiled young lady and have finally come close to success! And you kill her?! Do you know how I poisoned her every day and Weaken her health in order to make her death appear natural!!"
Kuro took out all the grievances in his heart and began to reveal everything he had done in the 3 years he had spent here.
Kaya was dead anyway so why should he keep acting and deceiving?
"I even secretly killed her father so that I could carry out my plans faster! But you ruined everything! I will-"
*Boommm!*
Ren slapped Kuro to stop screaming like a little bitch, His goal was achieved anyway.
"Did you hear what your kind servant said, Miss Kaya?" Ren said as he looked at the room door.
Kaya quickly walked in with tears in her eyes as she held her mouth with her hand and looked at Kuro in disbelief and angry.
At the same time, the "dead" Merry suddenly came back to life and looked at Kuro with disappointment, anger, and hatred...and also deep sadness."
Kuro:"...."
