On a vibrant morning, a 30-year-old Brazilian, a huge fan of "One Piece," walked to work. Holding his phone, he was engrossed in the latest chapter of the manga, so engrossed that he didn't notice the speeding truck approaching as he crossed the street.
All he heard was a noise and a feeling of disarray. As if things were out of place.
He felt nothing and was thankful for it.
What felt like months passed by, but he wasn't sure. Until one moment, a bright light could be seen.
Before him stood a majestic, almost divine figure.
"You are a lucky man. To think I've stumbled upon a wandering soul. As our paths intertwined, I'll offer you a chance: a fresh start in a different universe."
The man became excited, recalling all the isekai stories he knew.
"Choose your universe, any you'd like. I will also grant you three wishes. In return, I'll take some of your memories as a form of exchange."
He knew what he wanted: "I wish to go to the world of 'One Piece,' specifically to Loguetown, during the last day of Gold Roger."
And my wishes are:
To have the appearance and abilities of young Satoru Gojo from "Jujutsu Kaisen".
To absorb the knowledge of the wisest in all anime.
A tailor-made Akuma no Mi.
The entity, reflecting, stated there would be alterations.
Regarding knowledge, it would be too much for his mind. He would have to limit himself to a single universe.
He felt momentarily disappointed, but soon cheered up and chose "Dragon Ball," recalling its connection with "One Piece."
As for the Akuma no Mi, he asked for something to write with to describe the fruit he wished for.
"A Paramecia that allows transforming inanimate objects into human versions of fictional characters from 2D universes. They can toggle between forms, and the user creates bonds with these beings.
Abilities:
1.1. Transform inanimate objects into human versions of fictional characters.
1.2 The sentient being, transformed into human form, can revert to its original state and toggle between the two, retaining its intelligence and capabilities.
1.3. Create soul connections between the user and the transformed objects.
Abilities:
2.1. The new living being acquires all the physical traits (strength, agility, dexterity, etc.) of the fictional character.
2.2. Physical techniques similar to those of the fictional characters.
2.3. Gradual obedience of the transformed objects to the user."
The entity agreed but placed limitations on the Akuma no Mi.
Limitations:
3.1. Transformation requires a soul sacrifice.
3.2. Obedience from the objects is not instantaneous.
3.3. The user can't confer mystical abilities from the character's universe.
Reading the alterations, the man sighed in disappointment but understood the necessity.
And thus, at the top of the paper appeared the fruit's name: Henshin Henshin no Mi.
Accepting the terms, the man readied himself. With a gesture, the deity began his adventure in "One Piece."
