SCREEEEEECHHHHH!
"Hey…. Hey… man, move aside…. Quickkkkkkk… quick… jump!"
BAM!
"Huh?" These were the last words I uttered as Truck-sama slammed its mighty body on me sending me to eternal sleep. Before I realized what happened, I was already proclaimed dead.
…
"Man… so that's how I died, huh?" muttered the soul of a young man as he finished watching the video of his death.
"Pretty much." Said ROB as he took a sip of green tea.
"Hmm… well… this sucks… But I guess, there's no crying over spilt milk…" muttered the young man with a helpless expression, and asked ROB, "So, old man… what comes next? Does death mean the end of my existence and I will be erased, or will I be sent to one of those two realms, hell or heaven?"
ROB replied, "Normally you would be erased… there is no such thing as hell or heaven…"
The soul of the young man was taken aback, "What? There is no such thing as hell or heaven?"
ROB nodded, "Yes, and before you ask any other question about hell or heaven, let's just change the topic, I am not interested in discussing that since I will have to explain to you the entire concept of life, death, God and so many other things which you'll probably not understand…"
"Uhhh… okay." The young soul had to suppress his curiosity, then asked, "Since there is no hell or heaven, does that mean I am going to be erased?"
"As I mentioned earlier, normally that happens when someone dies, however, I am thinking of doing something else this time…" answered ROB.
"Something else?" muttered the young soul, and asked, "As in?"
ROB replied, "I think you are familiar with the concept of reincarnating into other worlds from those light novels and fanfictions that you used to read in your past life, right?"
"Mm-hmm…" nodded the young soul, and thought, 'Is this going where I think it is!' He couldn't help but get excited at the thought of reincarnating into some other world and looked at ROB with burning eyes.
And ROB didn't disappoint the young boy as he nodded, "You are thinking correctly, I am thinking of giving such an opportunity to you."
The young man couldn't help but laugh out loud in excitement, "Yes! Finally…!" After a while, he calmed himself and asked, "But, may I ask why I am getting such an opportunity?"
"It's entertaining to watch young men such as you have fun, so I will give this chance to you," Answered ROB with a smile.
"I see." Muttered the young man. He doesn't know if ROB is telling the truth or not, but he has no other option but to believe him.
With this in mind, the young man nodded, "All right." And asked, "So… in which world will I be going? Can I make a choice of my own? And Will I be getting any special cheat?"
"For the choice of the world…" said ROB and flicked his finger as a giant spinning wheel appeared. Pointing at the giant spinning wheel, he said, "You will spin this… and you will be going to the world that you get after the spin."
The young man nodded and looked at the spinning wheel. Hundreds of names were written on it. Worlds like, 'Naruto', 'Attack on Titan, 'Full Metal Alchemist', 'Bleach', and 'High School DxD' were written on it. The names of several worlds excited the young man while the name of several worlds scared the young man.
He didn't want to go to a world like Berserk, that would be too dangerous.
Looking at the young man's expression, ROB created a lever beside him, and said, "Push that lever… this will spin the wheel… rest depends on your luck."
The young man nodded and did as he was asked, "Here goes nothing!"
As the lever was pushed, the wheel started to spin.
After several minutes of spinning, it finally stopped, and the world that was chosen for the young man is, "One Piece? Well, not bad."
It's a world of Pirates and Marines, where the strong eats the weak. Although the world is extremely dark, there is no guarantee that you can live another day, but as long as you are strong enough, there are a whole lot of things you can do in the One Piece World… Most of all, you can go on an adventure of a lifetime and have a lot of fun, so knowing that he will be going to the ONE PIECE world, the young man was satisfied.
"Well, now that the world is selected… do I get any special cheat?" asked the young man, looking at ROB. It's not that the young man wouldn't be able to do anything without a cheat, but things would be fairly well if he has a cheat.
ROB nodded, "There is no problem in having a cheat or two, but nothing overboard, since that would ruin all the fun, also, your cheat will be limited to the World of One Piece,"
"Fair enough… so can I choose my cheat?" asked the young man.
ROB nodded, "Go ahead… let's see what you have in mind."
The Young man grinned, and spoke, "So, first of all, I want to have a mix of Oni & merfolk bloodline… for the Oni part, I do not want it to be the giant ones, like Oars, but the smaller ones like Kaidou and Yamato, and for the merfolk part, I only want their ability to breathe underwater, not the tail." And added after a pause, "After that comes to the Devil Fruit, for this, I want to have the Moa Moa no Mi that was eaten by Byrnndi World, also do me a favor and please make me immune to Sea Water, Being in a world majority of which is the ocean, and being unable to swim can put me in a bit of a pickle… Also, I would like to have the knowledge of all three forms of Haki, as well as Swordsmanship as well as their training methods, and please do incorporate the potential of a King because Conqueror is the most important."
"A positive combination of Oni & Merfolk bloodline, the Moa Moa no Mi devil fruit of Byrnndi World, seawater immunity, and knowledge of the three forms of Haki and Swordsmanship… these should be fine." Answered ROB after giving some thought to the young man's wishes, and added, "Although giving you Moa Moa no Mi can be a bit tricky, I will have to make some minor changes in the timeline such that Byrnndi World died in Impel Down, but I suppose, it's no big deal since he is not that important of a character anyway."
"O… Okay." Nodded the young man, he was grateful that ROB was willing to go this far.
ROB nodded in appreciation, and said, "Now that the matter of the world and your cheat has been dealt with, let's talk about how you will be reincarnated… like what family, timeline, and year you want to get reincarnated into…"
The young man thought a little and said, "Please make it so that I am an orphan, for the timeline I want it to be the Great Age of Pirates, and for the year please make it so that my birth year is two years prior to Ace and Sabo… also… I want to be born in East Blue…"
"Okay… this can be done." ROB nodded, and asked, "Any other request?"
"Ah… yes… if possible, I would like to be born on the Dawn Islands, and since I don't want to deal with being a baby and all, so instead of reincarnating me as a baby, just put me into that world when I am six years old." Answered the young man.
"Very well." Nodded ROB, and said, "This will be done too."
The young man smiled gratefully, and said, "Thank you… that'll be all."
ROB nodded, and spoke, "Since all the formalities have been taken care of, now it's time for you to go."
The young man said, "Thank you for everything."
ROB smiled lightly, "I wish you the best of luck on this new adventure." Then flicked his finger and the young man disappeared.
"Heh… counting the previous three, this is the fourth rabbit… I suppose four rabbits should be enough for dinner." I muttered while looking at the small rabbit that was caught in the trap I had prepared.
Using a simple knife that was made out of the bone of one of the rabbits I had eaten a few days ago, I killed the four rabbits and then made my way toward my home.
Arriving at my home, firstly I washed my hands and feet, then I started to prepare the dinner.
"Let's see… before I grill them, I have to Skin and dress them, so firstly, let's start with…" I muttered as I hung the four rabbits by their hind legs using makeshift hooks made up of bones to make the process easier.
"Now I must remove their fur," I started at the base of their hind legs by making a shallow cut through their skin around the ankle joint, then I firmly grasped the cut fur and pulled it down towards the head peeling the skin away from the body in one fluid motion.
I continued pulling the fur off the rabbit, working towards the front legs and neck area, and used the bone knife to make additional cuts where they were required, of course, I had to be careful not to puncture the underlying flesh.
After the fur was removed, it was time to remove the head and the feet, "For the head, just below the jawline, and for the feet, at the ankle joints," I muttered as I made clean cuts.
"Next is, opening the abdominal cavity," I muttered as I made a shallow cut around the vent, I had to be careful not to puncture the intestines and then extended it upward towards the chest using the knife to carefully separate the skin from the abdominal wall, after that, I made a horizontal cut across the lower abdomen and continued up towards the chest, opening the abdominal cavity.
Once the abdominal cavity was open, I reached into it and carefully started to remove the organs. I started by pulling out the intestines while making sure not to rupture them and release their content, I moved on to the liver, heart, lungs, and other organs, saving them to be used for future bait that I might use while catching some fish, "Now that the entrails have been removed, it's time to clean these…"
I rinsed the inside of the rabbit cavity with cold water to remove any remaining blood or debris and also removed the scent glands using clean cuts, scent glands can impart a strong flavor, something I wanted to avoid.
The last step was to once again rinse the rabbits using cold water in order to remove any remaining debris, after that I pat them dry with a clean cloth.
With the last step completed,
"Hygiene is important, after all, I wouldn't want to die from a disease because I was being a little too careless and lazy," I muttered as I set up the woods and fire, the rabbits were skinned and dressed, it was time to grill them.
I used some bones whose size and density I had increased to skewer the meat, sprinkled some spices I had obtained through bartering from one of the taverns in the village, and placed it in front of the burning fire for grilling.
While the food was being prepared, I couldn't help but look at the full moon in the night sky and muttered to myself, "Before I realized, it's already been a month since I arrived in this world."
Yes, it has been a month since I transmigrated into the World of One Piece. The last month has been fruitful to some extent as I have spent it entirely familiarizing myself with my surroundings and people.
When I woke up in this World, I found myself inside a small hut that was built at the edge of a small village, since there was no sign of 'Partys Bar', or 'Makino' in the village, I was certain that this wasn't Foosha Village, and after further investigation, I figured out that this is a village named Vrichfield.
The name 'Vrichfield' stems from the 'Vrich' tree, a deciduous tree that is known for its slender but tall trunk, distinctive bark, and delicate leaves. And since there is an entire field of Vrich trees around the village, so the village was named the 'Vrichfield', well, that's what I heard two 'adults' talk about over their cups of booze.
In any case, upon further investigation, I learned that Vrichfield is on the opposite end of Dawn Island, that is, there is a mountainous forest, a complete Goa Kingdom, and then another mountainous between Vrichfield and Foosha.
So, yeah, I suppose I am quite far from Foosha Village, and it would take at the very least four to five days to travel from Vrichfield to Foosha.
Of course, I have no plans of going to Foosha Village at this point since that is incredibly dangerous for a kid like me. True I am stronger than most adult humans despite being only six years old physically, courtesy of my half-Oni-half-Merfolk bloodline, there are animals as large as trucks in the forest, who are capable of completely digesting me without even needing to burp should I encounter them.
Aside from the dangerous part, it is also quite pointless, there would be nothing in Foosha Village at this point in time since Luffy would be a year old at most, so yeah, no point in going to Foosha Village.
"Maybe I will think about going to Foosha Village for a while once Shanks and the rest of the Red-haired pirates stay there," I muttered thoughtfully.
Now that we are clear about my surroundings, let's talk about my strength.
As I have already mentioned before, because of possessing a half-Oni-half-Merfolk bloodline, I am physically stronger than most adults despite being only six years old. I am already capable of breaking trees with my punches, and I am confident enough to inflict serious damage to any ordinary humans once we get into a fight, though I still have to figure out the extent of the damage I can cause to someone since I haven't really gotten into a fight with anyone so far.
Aside from the strength aspect, I have also tested my ability to breathe underwater, after all, I possess a half-merfolk bloodline, so being able to breathe underwater and communicate with marine life is another advantage that I have.
Now let's talk about the third aspect of my strength. Since I have eaten (literally ate the unpalatable and disgusting piece of shit) the Moa Moa no Mi, I have become a More More Human, or in my case, a More More half-Oni-half-merfolk, and therefore, I can apply the concept of 'More' to various attributes.
For now, I am mainly focused on five attributes which include speed, weight, size, mass, and density, and will move on to other attributes as well in the future as my physical strength increases. Based on the current stage of development, I can already triple these things compared to their original size, which means I can increase any of these five attributes of anything I touch by three times which is not bad considering I am only six years old right now.
Of course, the physical strain of increasing these attributes is not small, but considering the fact that I am half-Oni-half-Merfolk, this is not a problem.
I have a lot of plans for the Moa Moa no Mi, and the possible development directions I can take in the future, but for that, I still have to put in a lot of effort.
With that out of the way, let's move to the second last aspect of my strength, which is Haki. As of yet, I haven't started Haki training. Of course, since I know that I possess the knowledge and means to train Haki because of the wish I made to ROB, therefore, I know that to train Haki, I need to have extraordinary physical strength as well, only then my Haki will improve.
I plan to spend the next few months working on my physical strength and after that, I will start with Observation Haki. For the training of observation Haki, I have a solid plan and approach, so I know that it will be easiest to master, but of course, the problem of physical strength and exhaustion has to be dealt with, otherwise, the plan will be of no use.
And now that we have talked about Haki, let's talk about Swordsmanship, which is probably going to be the last aspect of my strength. I haven't started swordsmanship training either. This is not because I want to wait for something, rather, I need a sword to start my swordsmanship training, and currently, I have no sword.
While I do possess knowledge of various sword techniques and their training methods, unless I have a proper sword at my disposal and ingrain these sword techniques into my muscle memory, it would be of no use.
And honestly speaking, I have no clue how to make a proper and balanced sword. Sure, I can create small knives using the bones of my prey, but creating a knife and creating a Sword are two completely different things, so I have no other choice but to wait for a while for a sword.
'In any case, currently, I am only six years old, and nothing major will happen until I turn twelve, so I still have six years in my hand to plan out things, I think things will turn out okay by that time.' I thought to myself as I picked up the grilled rabbit meat and started to fill up my stomach.
