"Detected acceptance of Monkey D. Luffy's invitation to become a member of the Straw Hat Pirates."

"Faction Fortune (Super Gold) has updated the faction to Pirate Faction."

"Can load Straw Hat Pirates member entries. Current loadable entry target: Straw Hat Pirates Captain, Monkey D. Luffy. Loadable entries are: Superhuman Physique (Deep Purple), Sun God (Super Gold), Gum-Gum Fruit [Disguise] (Deep Purple). Do you wish to load?"

After confirming acceptance of Luffy's invitation, a light screen, visible only to Roan, appeared before him. In a highly user-friendly manner, the Ultimate Trait System displayed three loadable traits from Luffy, each with an "Instantly Load" option.

The Powerful Connection (Special) trait, being a special trait based on Luffy's background and relationships, could not be loaded. However, as Luffy's companion, Roan could still enjoy the benefits of this trait, so it was irrelevant.

Roan thought for a moment, then selected the "Yes" option for Superhuman Physique (Deep Purple) and Sun God (Super Gold). He did not choose to load Gum-Gum Fruit [Disguise] (Deep Purple). Without awakening to become the Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Nika Form, the Gum-Gum Fruit was merely an ordinary Paramecia-type Devil Fruit ability.

To unleash its powerful potential, one would need to develop Gear Second, Gear Third, and Gear Fourth. According to information from the original story, such usage consumed the user's lifespan. For Roan, who could lexicalize and then plunder others' abilities, this was somewhat disadvantageous.

Later, when Luffy completed his awakening and gained the Nika power, Roan would simply load the Nika power directly. The Nika's unique and almost bug-like imagination was the true power of that Devil Fruit.

After Roan finished selecting his loading options, two more entries appeared in Roan's own traits.

Traits (Roan): Navigational Skill (White), Beast Strength (Blue), Conqueror's Haki (Light Gold), Faction Fortune (Super Gold);

Superhuman Physique (Deep Purple) (Loading...): —

Sun God (Super Gold) (Loading...): —

It was very simple and clear. However, compared to direct plundering, the progress bar after loading was indeed slow. Superhuman Physique (Deep Purple) was alright; after a moment, it at least showed some movement. But Sun God (Super Gold), its progress bar didn't move at all.

At least, from Roan's perspective, he couldn't see it moving. But then again, it made sense; after all, it was a Super Gold-level trait, so it would definitely take a long time to load completely. Fortunately, Roan had already joined the Straw Hat Pirates, so he had plenty of time to load and wasn't in a hurry.

Being able to load was much better than just staring blankly because he couldn't plunder these powerful traits from Luffy right now. Anyway, these traits would belong to Roan sooner or later. He could also slowly test later to see if there was any way to accelerate this loading process.

"Then let's prepare to set sail. We need to find a ship first; my ship was swept away by that big whirlpool." Luffy pressed his Straw Hat and grinned. Luffy, having found his first companion, was in a very good mood.

"If we're finding a ship, I happen to know a little basic navigation." Roan also smiled. This was why Roan had plundered Koby's Navigational Skill (White) trait. Roan hadn't forgotten that in the original story, before Nami became their navigator, Luffy basically relied on drifting.

And in the original story, it was Koby, that clown, who used this Navigational Skill (White) to lead Luffy to Zoro. Now that Koby was dealt with by Roan, he naturally had to take this trait and temporarily act as the Straw Hat Pirates' navigator.

"You're also a navigator? That's great! It's great to have you on board, Roan!" Luffy was overjoyed.

"It's just a little basic navigation. I can't be called a navigator. I can sail on some calm seas in the Four Seas, but to go to the Grand Line, my navigation skills won't be enough." Roan smiled. "Luffy, you want to become the Pirate King, so you definitely have to go to the Grand Line, right?"

"Of course! I have to conquer the Grand Line to become the Pirate King. I made a promise to someone." Luffy held his Straw Hat, his eyes filled with nostalgia. Roan knew this was Luffy's promise with Shanks, the Red-Haired Emperor.

"Then, finding a navigator who can sail the Grand Line is absolutely necessary." Roan said, and in his mind, the graceful figure of a woman he had recently danced with appeared.

"Hehe, as for companions, I'll definitely find them. I'm sure I will." Luffy put his Straw Hat back on, smiling optimistically.

"Boom!"

Just then, from above the ship's deck, a figure resembling a wild boar smashed through the deck, heavily landing in front of Roan and Luffy.

"Are you two little brats the ones looking for trouble with our pirate crew?" A creature holding a large iron mace, incredibly ugly, barely human, grinned with a blood-filled mouth. Above the shattered deck, there were many more pirate thugs.

"Looks like it's not 'Pirate Hunter' Zoro." After scanning Luffy and Roan, Alvida grinned hideously, showing her blood-filled mouth.

"Zoro?" Luffy looked puzzled.

"Koby! You trash, are you still alive?" Alvida roared twice at the motionless Koby lying on the side, but received no response. Her wild boar-like face was filled with anger. She wasn't concerned about Koby's life or death; she was displeased that she hadn't heard Koby's words of praise for her.

"Who's this rude old hag?" Luffy asked curiously, pointing at Alvida.

"!!!" The members of Alvida's pirate crew above the deck were so scared they didn't dare to speak.

"Hahaha, she's 'Iron Mace' Alvida, with a bounty of five million Berries." Roan couldn't help but laugh when he heard Luffy's blunt words.

"Read Trait." Then he looked at Alvida.

Trait (Alvida): Iron Mace (Blue), Super Fat (Blue).

Iron Mace (Blue): Able to wield a heavy iron mace that normal people cannot lift.

Super Fat (Blue): Even jumping from a ten-story building, the fat, thicker than a wild boar's, allows the possessor to remain unharmed.

Seeing Alvida's traits, Roan couldn't help but curve his lips upward. "Super Fat" was indeed very fitting.

Luffy's words, combined with Roan's laughter, were the greatest insult to Alvida in her eyes.

"Die! You two brats!" Alvida roared, raising her huge iron mace and smashing it down towards Roan and Luffy.

"Whoosh!" Roan, possessing Beast Strength, stomped his foot hard, and together with Luffy, leaped through the large hole Alvida had made, onto the deck.

"My name isn't 'brat,' it's Monkey D. Luffy, and I'm a pirate. Nice to meet you." Luffy grinned.

"Who cares what your stinking brat name is!" Alvida charged forward.

"What a fierce old hag." Luffy looked helpless.

"Brat!" Alvida's eyes were completely red now. And the pirate thugs knew they had to perform now, otherwise the enraged Alvida would surely smash their heads with her iron mace. So, they swarmed towards Luffy and Roan, shouting and killing.

"They're bullying us because there are more of them!" Luffy yelled, preparing to fight with his Gum-Gum Fruit abilities.

"Leave it to me." Roan reached out, stopping Luffy. Red and black light suddenly flared in his eyes.
