contents Starting from the elliptic curve $E: y^2 = x^3 - x$ over $\mathbb{F}_9$, a curve $\mathcal{X}$ over $\mathbb{F}_{3^{2n}}$ and a cyclic cover of $\mathcal{X}$ of degree $m \in \{2,3,4,6\}$, we construct the corresponding $m$-twists over the function field $\mathbb{F}_{3^{2n}}(\mathcal{X})$. We also obtain the Mordell-Weil rank of these twists in terms of the Zeta functions of $\mathcal{X}$ and of suitable Kummer and Artin-Schreier extensions of it. Finally, we also describe the fibers of the elliptic fibration associated to such twists in the case $\mathcal{X} = \mathbb{P}^1$.
