Rudius pulled out a triangular magnetic device and placed it on the ground. Suddenly, the protected sphere shot towards the direction Peter had placed the magnetic device.
The energy membrane protecting the sphere was quickly breached by the sphere, and then the sphere was attracted by the triangular magnetic device.
[And the energy membrane protecting the sphere also disappears and shuts down after the sphere is launched.]
Just as Rudius was about to put the ball into his pocket, he heard someone call his name from behind.
"Put it down!"
"The cops are here again."
Hearing this shout, Rudeus cursed inwardly.
【"hey-hey!"】
"Abababa!"
The leader spoke to the two men beside him in their planetary dialect, then shouted at Rudeus.
"Put it down immediately."
"Not a friend, no problem, I'll put it down."
Rudius, seeing the two menacing figures approaching him, wisely observed the situation and said...
【"clang!"】
Rudius simply threw the ball to the ground.
"I've already put it down, don't shoot, buddy."
"How do you know you've only played with things?!"
The leading man picked up the ball Rudius had dropped, looked at Peter with a familiar expression, and pressed him for answers.
"I don't even know what it is. I'm just a scavenger, I just randomly rummaged through things..."
The guy behind Rudius shoved Peter, interrupting his lie.
"You don't look like someone who collects trash."
"You're wearing a raider's uniform!"
"Predators?!"
Lupin III caught a word the guy uttered: raider.
Just by hearing the name, you can tell that this organization or gang doesn't seem to be doing anything good.
"So, the spaceship that initially took Rudeus away was a Raider's spaceship."
"Could it be that they took Rudius away just to recruit Peter?"
"Or is it that the person who brought Rudeus was part of a group, and little Rudeus was a loot that the raiders plundered from that spaceship?"
Lupin III began to speculate about Rudeus's identity and background, since Peter was just an ordinary person and didn't even seem to be a mutant.
"It's just a jacket."
Rudius also hurriedly tried to exonerate himself. He knew the raiders didn't have a good reputation, but he hadn't expected anyone to come after him, especially on such a desolate planet.
"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, stop poking me!"
Rudius turned to the guy who had been poking him in the back with the gun barrel and said...
【"May I have your name!"】
"My name is Rudius Greirat, brother, calm down."
Rudius heard the leader's tone suddenly become violent, and the guy behind him suddenly shoved him hard. He quickly spoke, rattling off a string of words, as if afraid they would shoot him.
"Come with me!"
The leader shouted at Rudeus, while the two men behind Rudeus shoved him forcefully.
【"Why?"】
"Ronan might have something to ask you!"
After speaking, the leader reincarnated and left, no longer listening to Rudeus's ramblings.
"You know, you might have heard of me by another name."
Rudius, feeling he could still be saved, immediately called out to the leader.
【"Um!?"】
The leader turned around upon hearing Rudeus's words, wondering if this petty thief might have some extraordinary identity.
517: Rudius: You gave Lu Dayou
"Could it be that Rudius really has some extraordinary identity?"
"Hmm...that makes sense. After all, being able to wear the Raider's uniform, Rudeus might actually have some extraordinary abilities."
Minoru Kageno is very interested in Rudeus, perhaps because they share the same experience of reincarnation.
Therefore, since he himself gained great power after reincarnation, Rudeus might have also gained some great power after reincarnation, but it just hasn't been shown yet.
Rudius looked at the man, paused for a moment, then lowered his voice and gave his other name in a very arrogant tone.
"Star-Lord."
However, the other person's reaction wasn't what Rudeus expected; instead of being intimidated, they showed a puzzled expression.
【"who?"】
Seeing that the other person didn't recognize him, Rudius began to introduce himself.
"Star-Lord, haven't you heard of him? The legendary rogue."
The person opposite didn't say anything, but they opened their arms wide; their body language said it all—they simply hadn't heard of you before.
"Rudeus and that Phantom Thief Kid, are they considered to be in the same line of work?"
Conan Edogawa, watching Rudeus claim to be a legendary thief, thought of the thief who liked to wear a white coat and send out advance notices.
However, Conan Edogawa felt that Kaito Kid wasn't as prestigious as Rudeus, since Rudeus was a chivalrous thief in space, while Kaito Kid was just a small fry in comparison.
"Everyone?"
Rudius turned to look at the two men behind him; they clearly didn't recognize him either.
"Hurry up!"
The leader of the group also waved his hand and roared, "What a waste of my time! I thought there might be some twist in the story."
【"never mind."】
Rudeus muttered under his breath, "He's not one to listen to orders," and kicked the glowing owl at the two people behind him.
[After the luminous pearl touched one of them, it burst into a brilliant light. The two people were caught off guard and engulfed by the light, then turned to ashes.]
"Eh."
"Is that bead really that powerful?"
Sato Kazuma stared in astonishment at the two people who had been instantly reduced to ashes, and then looked at the luminous pearl that he had thought was just for lighting.
Kazuma Sato had initially thought Rudeus was going to be captured, but Rudeus had just casually acquired something with such great power.
"They've been around the universe for a while, so it's normal for them to have some strange or unusual things on them, isn't it?"
Zhuge Cong said from the side, "If we're talking about Star-Lord Rudeus's equipment, the most valuable items are those two elemental guns."
After all, the amount of elements that can be created is theoretically infinite, because this gun is actually an entrance to outer space, extracting and transmitting the four elements mentioned above from within the planet.
Of course, the other equipment also features cutting-edge technology.
The leader in front, hearing the commotion behind him, immediately turned around, and Rudeus drew his elemental spear.
A bullet of air elemental energy was fired, sending the leader flying. The sphere containing the leader's phone also fell to the ground.
"Snap."
Rudius patted his raider's coat, then picked up the sphere from the ground and put it in his pocket.
Rudius had just put the ball in his pocket when he saw the guy he'd knocked away get up. The leader, without saying a word, simply picked up his energy burst gun and fired at Rudius.
The leader no longer wanted to capture Rudeus alive; he planned to kill him outright.
Rudeus displayed astonishing flexibility, leaning back dramatically to dodge the energy gun's attack.
[The energy ball struck the wall, and the wall, which had remained sturdy for thousands of years, shattered instantly.]
[Lying on the ground, Rudeus activated his space helmet, then his jetpack, which propelled him towards the large hole created by the blast.]
[“Bang!”]
The second energy ball came hurtling in, but it was too late. Rudeus had already been sent flying, crashing to the ground, rolling once before quickly getting to his feet.
Rudius ran with incredible speed and incredible physical abilities, which meant that even in wind and rain, he was not greatly affected.
Rudeus ran while glancing back; his cosmic helmet allowed him a clear view of what was happening behind him. He saw the leader jump down and chase after him.
【"grass."】
