Chapter 2: Chapter 2 - On the Black Pirate Ship

With confusion and bewilderment clouding my mind, I tried to make sense of the new situation I found myself in. Why was I suddenly in this inexplicable place? What was really happening? However, everything became clear as childhood memories flooded back into my mind.

The tranquil island that resided in my memories, a place where I spent my days immersed in books, turned out to be a small hidden island in the East Blue. The island served as a refuge for children, shielding them from the threats of pirates and battles on the vast seas. I recalled those peaceful moments, where smiles and joy filled our everyday lives.

However, one thing I had to accept was that I, Coby, had never been a character involved in the grand adventures of the One Piece world. I only appeared at the beginning of the story and in a few minor episodes. But this undeniable peculiarity had thrust me into a journey far more challenging than I had ever imagined.

In a state of utter confusion, I continued to try and comprehend this situation. I found myself inside a dark and damp cell aboard the black pirate ship. Laughter and merriment from the ongoing festivities on the deck resonated clearly in my ears. I felt isolated and weighed down by the circumstances surrounding me.

Determined to seek answers, I struggled to overcome the fear and bewilderment that plagued my mind. I investigated the cell I was in. The pungent odor and the clammy environment made me increasingly uncomfortable. However, I couldn't give up. I looked around and noticed some mushrooms growing on the walls and floor of the cell. These conditions indicated that I had indeed been trapped in the real world of One Piece.

As I tried to recollect what happened before finding myself here, a glimpse of memory about the explosion in my apartment flashed through my mind. That meant I had not only been reincarnated as Coby but also had been spiritually transported into the world of One Piece.

In this unbelievable circumstance, my determination burned even brighter. I had to find a way to survive and uncover what truly happened to me. With a pounding heart, I gathered my courage and began planning my next steps.
