Chương 1: Prologue [Edited]
Life surely is unpredictable, isn't it?
Rowan, a 25 year-old man. He was simply living his everyday life. Due to how everything recently got busy for him, Rowan didn't have as much time to invest in his favourite hobby: watching anime.
However, the Christmas season came, and Rowan was finally granted with a break he wanted. What was the first thing that he did?
Well... watching anime was important, but so were the others. Rowan first called his friends and families, asking how they have been doing, wishing them the Merry Christmas, etc. Afterwards, he had a deep sleep in his cozy room.
After the Christmas has passed and the break was about to be over, Rowan was finally seen to be watching the anime, Demon Slayer in particular, with ear phones attached onto his ears and his eyes locked onto the medium-sized screen in front of him.
"Come on Tanjiro, you got this!!" Rowan gritted his teeth in anger as he watched how the main character has been facing a tough situation ahead of him, "Save your sister! Come on, show some protagonist energy!! Total Concentration Breathing, hell yeah!!"
Then all of a sudden, his whole sight overturned.
The features from his room, such as the chair he was sitting on, the monitor he was staring at, the table it lied upon, everything has blended into a hollow white.
"…What?" Rowan subconsciously muttered out in a confusion. The phenomenon that he was experiencing was simply too abnormal for him to maintain his calmness.
"You died." Suddenly, a voice boomed from his back. Slowly turning to the source with a slight anxiousness, Rowan was greeted with a glowing white orb, which had a human-like mouth as the only noticeable feature.
"Died?" Rowan couldn't understand how he died. Wasn't he simply in his room? What could possibly be the cause of his death? "I don't understand. How?"
The white orb's mouth turned into a frown, "Why should I explain myself? All that matters is that you died. Period."
Rowan bit his lips in frustration, "This got to be a prank, right? How can I die just like this? How would my family react?"
The white orb clearly seemed to be uninterested in Rowan's distress. Growing a white-coloured arm from its side, it passed a cubic dice to Rowan.
"It... it isn't funny you know?" Grabbing onto the dice that floated in front of him, Rowan whispered in disbelief.
"Roll this dice." The white orb simply stated in a monotone.
Rowan inspected the dice given to him. Out of the six faces, five were labelled with the word 'Reincarnate,' while the last face was labelled with the word 'Transmigrate.' Rowan already had a good idea what the purpose of this dice was, but he still felt numb from his apparent death.
Nonetheless, Rowan threw the dice up in the air, complying to the white orb, whom Rowan believed to be something akin to a god.
'Transmigrate as the only possible option... kind of like Konosuba? Granted a special power of your choice?' Rowan thought in intrigue as the dice spun up in the air.
"Yes it is, but..." The white orb somehow answered to Rowan's thought, and the dice landed on the ground before bouncing back up, "not for you, it seems."
The dice finally landed without any motion, with the face indicating 'Reincarnate' on top. Underneath the word, a straw hat was drawn.
Rowan's eyes narrowed upon sighting the drawing, which wasn't present before he threw the dice, "Straw hat? One Piece?"
Out of all possibilities, what's the chance of being reincarnated into the anime world, which he never even thought to have existed in reality?
"Yes, yes." The white orb said tiredly and snapped with his fingers, "Go. Enjoy your new life. Have fun or whatever. Bye."
"Hold on-" Before Rowan could finish his words, he was gone with a popping sound.
Now alone in the white space, the white orb sighed in exhaustion, "Haa, that dude just now was a 976,348,275,294,284,283,584,362,432,438,492,532,593,294,538,294,542,211,104,328,555,382,494,275th individual. Please god, why torture me in a space like this? Pure boredom and endless repetition—why even create me with capability to feel emotion- wait."
The white orb halted its pestering, and its mouth curled up to a smile in a sudden realization, "Oops? It seems that I forgot to erase that guy's memory just now. Haha, yes, purely accidental. I'm so totally screwed. This is going to be int- not interesting at all."

'Hell yeah, first was all white, and now it's pitch black. How cool.' Having experienced the series of abnormal phenomena, Rowan ceased to think.
'Now, where am I?' Rowan tried to look around, but found himself unable to do so. 'Wait, my body is-'
Suddenly, he felt the tightening sensation all around him, causing him to cry out in pain.
'Ow! What the hell?! Don't tell me that I actually reincarnated!' Rowan thought to himself, and simultaneously, an unconscious cry came out from his mouth, "Waaa! Waaa!"
"Push! Almost there!" Another voice was heard out of nowhere, booming into Rowan's ears.
The sensation around him became increasingly tight, causing Rowan to cry out further. Having realized what was going on, Rowan tried to squirm his way out, only to find that most of his body seemed unresponsive to his will.
'Push, push, you got this- ow, that hurts though- oh nice, finally! You did it!' Rowan cheered for his biological mother within himself, although he found it hard to accept her as his mother as of the current moment. "Waaaa!"
"Congratulations, it's a healthy boy!" Among the many noises that rustled all around, Rowan managed to catch the feminine words spoken by someone.
*SLAP* In midst of him crying, he felt a stinging pain on his butt all of a sudden.
'Why slap me when I was already crying?!! And even the doctors don't slap that hard!!' Rowan thought in confusion as he cried out even further, "WAAAAAAA!!!"
"Huagagaga, he surely is loud!" A masculine voice laughed as Rowan felt another pair of large hands lifting him up.
"Just like you, dear..." An exhausted voice of a woman was heard. "Have you... *Huff* ...thought of a name for our eldest son?"
"Why of course! I've thought of it all night!!" The man said seriously. "Your name shall be..."
'Come on, tell my name. What will it be?' Rowan thought in curiosity, 'One Piece world, so... no idea. Damn, what do I know about One Piece again? A boy with a straw hat named Luffy, and... yeah. Never watched a single episode. Hehe, let's see what kind of cool name I'll get!'
"...Youchiha Bob!!!"
"WAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!" Rowan's cry became even louder, which induced another hearty laugh from the man.
"Huagagaga, you like it, eh?"
'F***!!!!!!!!!!' Rowan screamed at his lung—in his mind of course.
And so, Rowan's new life in the world of One Piece has begun!
