Sinopse

Escreva uma avaliaçãoI normally don't write reviews but this time I felt compelled, I got 'sold' a book about space pirates but instead you get a generic Xianxia... IN SPACE. You get the ridiculously talented protagonist, not only is he a genius martial artists BUT also a brilliant apothecary/alquemist you know like always, let's not forget the mysterious background, then there's the wise helper in the shape of an accessory plus multiple female characters of high status showing interest in our MC (all of this in less than 40 chapters). Really the only sci-fy element that matters whatsoever is the VR stuff, otherwise just read something better like I Shall Seal the Heavens or some other xianxia novel that's actually good. **. The main character is bland and doesn't have a real personality.
Story summary looks like a Star Sea version of One Piece without the actual One Piece. Mc wants to become a space pirate and having the highest bounty is a way to determine ones worth as an outlaw? Very One Piece, especially the gene medicine bit, if that's not an alternative to devil fruit idk what is! Luffy was also classically trained under his Marine Hero grandpa as a future sailor. I mean I like One Piece, I like the previous book by the Author (or at least I did in it's early stages before it degenerated into endless grinding and op-ness). I'm willing to give this a chance. Will update review later maybe
1star-AI 4 stars- one piece element Man I really love one piece even if a story is a copy of one piece I will still read it This is a good novel to pass time in lockdown
While it's wrong to compare this with one piece, the mc is still the same as luffy, he's reckless, an idiot and naive (Not 100% sure on the last one since it's just 60 chapters) Another example Of this mc being a copy of luffy is that he cares more about his team than himself, even almost dying and instead of worry about himself, he still ask about his team. Atleast make preparations and make a heal potion or something, dumbass. Anyways sorry for the rant, it's not worth reading this novel if you don't like one piece, it's either boats and powers, or spaceships and powers.
This is a good novel to read after a hard day of working, I cannot stop reading it until my cellphone run out of battery. Do you agree with me?

I was hoping for an interesting pirate story, instead all I got was a boring trail of beaten-to-death cliches. The fact that it pretty much rips off One Piece is annoying enough, but then it isn't even good at it. I dont know, maybe I've read too many novels or something, but it was a struggle to keep reading when I could already accurately predict what was going to happen next. The main character's lack of any remotely interesting traits was particularly disappointing. I jumped ahead a bit, hoping for something interesting to happen only to come across the courtroom chapters....and reading those chapters made me give up completely. I'm sorry, the MC is bad enough, but his randomly op friend is even worse. I frankly have no idea how anyone could read that and stil take any of these characters seriously. An extremely average novel. Fine if you haven't become too bored of the classic cliches yet nor if you just really love this type of book, otherwise just save the effort.
This is nothing like One Piece. Just because there are pirates and bounties that doesn't mean there is the element of One Piece. If anything, this looks a lot like The Strongest Gene. Power system is nothing like One Piece, people need to use gene serums and do lots of training to increase their physique. 60 trial chapters are not always enough to show us whether a story is good or even a little interesting, but in my opinion this piece here deserves some attention since it's world background and story development has a lot of potential. Furthermore the power system can have some hidden surprises for us.
everone! vote for this so people know to translate it again! please and thank you with anything you want on top![img=update][img=recommend]
I'm sad this ended.. call it a one piece rip off, call it a copy, I don't care. I've thoroughly enjoyed every page, and wish there were more of it. I'm a big fan of the authors books, and just want to continue this story :(
Great story but it seems to have sadly been dropped. It is definitely disappointing to see such a great novel get dropped out of nowhere but I hope it comes back some day.
I'm really not sure how THIS passed the trial read. Almost from the start the story asks you to shut off your brain and not in the good way you want from a decent action story. Even the most average action stories give some kind of background or life experience that attempts to explain all the abilities they have. But not in this one. The mc is just some kid with zero history that can explain him becoming Jason Bourne all of a sudden. He literally goes from zero to hero in the span of 1-2 chapters. His new AI buddy (Which isn't downloading anything into his brain btw. It would've made more sense if they used that cliche even if that did make it more contrived) discovers a lost martial art and day later he's read the manual and has worked himself up from the bottom in a virtual reality arena and is fighting geniuses and experts. Apparently one day of training is enough to have him dodging bullets with his brand spanking new "Step" technique and steamrolling almost a dozen experienced fighters with one hit KO's with a knock off Finger Pistol. If you want to compare this guy to Luffy that would be completely unfair because at least in One Piece he already had his "special sauce" devil fruit for years, had experience fighting mountain beasts and had Garp to throw him off cliffs and other torments disguised as training. Also, he didn't start out his journey as some absolute expert who'd already mastered Haki and would soon awaken his devil fruit. It's an insult to one piece to compare these two as if they're at all similar. This guy? He just showed up and already he's like Time Skip Luffy. That's an insane amount of growth to shove in front of a readers face and tell them to just accept or believe it. Anybody with a thinking brain can see the story did nothing to establish or explain it. Whoever this id*otic author is they in no way deserve to be thought of alongside a master like Oda. Literally the same thing that happened with... I don't remember what this story is calling it, but let's go with potion making. He went from Neville to Snape with literally no training, education or effort. And unlike before it happened not in a day, but literally hours! All that happened was he obtained the recipe for a potion with the help of his AI and was instantly not only able to brew it, but he brewed it to absolute perfection. Sure, the first one was kind of iffy, but by the time he was done brewing his tenth an actual Potion Master teacher was creaming her p*nties at the absolute talent of the mc. And a-fcken-gain!!!!!!!!! The story was SO lazy it didn't even bother to leverage the AI he had sitting on his bloody wrist! For christs sake, if the kids going to start showing Master level abilities after trying something for the first time at least have it be because the system is downloading information into his brain or guiding his hand. This is just some normal kid who had a nobodys life 2 days ago. Being given an AI who can supply him with Potion recipes and martial arts can't explain how he's improving so impossibly fast if it isn't hacking into his brain. I know it's a common enough complaint on sites like this for characters to have insane growth rates bordering on plot armor, but this story is absolutely on the extreme end of that scale. I can't press strongly enough how much I suggest against reading this id*otic story. To expand on another example I made, it's like Jason Bourne but he wasn't an elite CIA assassin in the past. Just some run of the mill dude. Everything else is the same from his fighting abilities to his track record killing everybody the movies ask him to, just without any kind of backstory to explain how he got that ability. That's what this story is. Don't read this, and please stop passing up quality stories for garbage like this in the Trial Reads. Even if the premise isn't the most interesting out of all the trial options at least you're not going to be insulted and asked not to think about the story your reading. Do everyone a favor and support the good writers.
Revelar Spoiler🧐WARNING: This book is not for people who like detailed character development and logical skill learning and accumulation for the MC. (You've been warned) 🔥 Translation quality is good. Readable and smooth albeit there are some typos as you read. 🌱I can't comment on the translation as it's still on "trial read" status right now, so I'll give it an average grade. 🔥As for the progress of the story, I like it. The MC, though young, has a clear goal in mind already. For me, the story development is the highlight in this novel not the MC. 💧For me, though it's easy to read, the character development sucks. MC can learn any skill in just one day. Add that to his mysterious bloodline and Neptune, he becomes your everyday boring MC. 🌱The world background is ok. Not new, not bad, and not good at the same time.
The author of this novel is the author of monster paradise. WHY is his name mistranslated? His name should be "Nuclear warhead cooked in wine" if this is the quality of translation this novel would suck....
This story lacks excitement, as in I think this story doesn't have enough depth. While it does have the potential to be an interesting story, in my opinion it currently lacks a descriptive background to set the plot. Additionally, it sometimes feels like the author did not think it through completely. The result is that some mundane things, like for example prices, seem to be arbitrary. Generally spoken, this is not really a big problem, but it is exactly those small things that undermine the general quality and likeability of this story. However, I think that if the author revises this story a little it could become a great story at the end. Right now it is still worth it to read it. On a positive note: The translation is great. 😄
Was a great book but it seems to be dropped or at least on a long break. The story is well written and the characters are interesting. I hope more characters come out so I can read them.

Sounded like science fiction version of an cultivation/Alchemy novel and got me interested. Sadly it is only a cheaply transformed copy paste pill refining book. Most of the free chapters are about the Mc creating pharmaceutical wonders because he is a genius with everything... The start is way to boring and there are too many confusing Infos given out and even so, there is only limited worldbuilding... No reason whatsoever to spend money after reading only 39 free chapters. I can't recommend this novel.
I have nothing against super powerful martial arts etc. But its the way its delivered that determines how good a LN is FOR ME, and I dont like the way the super AI is set up, somehow it chooses him to activate and not the girl, somehow its archives are locked for no explainable f*cking reason, despite the fact its "super intelligent", were talking about data here, raw information, not some kind of complicated calculations that it needs more energy from the host to be able to access. Were not even talking about a warlock magus type AI where it can be set tasks to eventually derive itself, no, this is just "I cba to work out all the details so I'll just say its locked until it suits me to unlock it for the MC and plot progression" in a way thats so in your face I can't ignore it. MC needs money? Oh sure here I hacked thess accounts heres some money, but in the future the MC is gonna be like mo thats immoral or the AI is gonna make up some BS excuse about how it cant get more money. I'm sorry, maybe first tome readers will enjoy this thoroughly, but I'm jaded to these kind of plot mechanisms. Besides this, the world building seems standard, , character development typical for LNs on WN, but translation and release rate are good. Rant over Thanks for writing this anyway Author! And to the Translators for their hard work I was so excited for this story until the AI came through, and its delivery just killed the whole thing for me, I cant get over it because its so fundamental to the story progression.
It’s a Tech/Space type novel. And as most of the Space novels where you can’t cultivate, They make use of Gene strengthening to become stronger. The MC wants to become a pirate, That does not make this a One-Piece novel. The MC got a cheat AI which is quite OP right now. It can do almost everything other than directly attack. So far other than MC learning everything so quickly and his body having great plot armour, The overall story is good.
