The legendary survey?

_____

"Hahaha! Fun! This novel is fantastic! The author is truly a genius," Pedri exclaimed as he sat in his room reading one of his favorite web novels. He was thoroughly enjoying the reactions of the characters in the novel, which was based on his favorite manga series, One Piece.

Pedri was a fan of many manga series, including Dragonball, Naruto, Fairy Tail, Bleach, and Hunter X Hunter but One Piece was his absolute favorite. He had originally found solace in the manga after feeling overwhelmed by the saturation in the world of animes, but after this stage of manga, he discovered web novels, then discovered the joy of fanfic novels.

This particular fanfic about One Piece had quickly become an essential part of his daily routine. He felt empty if he didn't read it, despite the fact that it was not a novel in the traditional sense, with thrilling and dramatic events. Instead, it had a light and fun character that retells the legendary events from the manga while incorporating random reactions from various story characters.

As a dedicated reader of fanfic novels and an admirer of the original manga, Pedri kept a diary where he would jot down notes about the chapters he read. He aspired to become a great author himself and was eager to experience the joy of creating a world with his own hands. He often daydreamed about embodying himself and his desires in a story, just like other authors he admired.

...

After finishing the day's chapter, which was short but interesting as he had expected from a talented writer, Pedri left his phone aside and stood up from his bed while stretching. Suddenly, a strange anomaly occurred that went unnoticed. A dark shadow appeared under his phone and swallowed it, but in less than a second, a similar phone appeared from the shadow and replaced the original one.

It was 10 a.m. in Spain and Pedri had just woken up, eager to read the new chapter of his favorite novel.

He opened the curtains to let in the morning sun but was disappointed to find that the sky was cloudy. "Oh, it looks like it's going to rain... Well, I won't be going out today," he thought, content to stay in bed and find another novel to pass the time.

As he logged into the Webnovel app on his phone, he was met with strange ads he had never seen before. Despite trying to log out and back in, the annoying ad kept appearing. Frustrated, he logged onto the Google website, hoping to find a version without the annoying ads. However, to his surprise, the ad was still there.

The red advertisement page read "stop reading idly and write actively" [Are you interested in making your own world?] and presented two options, [Yes] or [No], with the [Yes] option emphasized and the [No] option appearing gray, suggesting that the only option was to accept.

"What the fuck is this!؟"Pedri felt that his phone was making fun of him.

...

Instinctively, Pedri pressed the "Yes" button and more questions appeared on the screen of his phone. "This seems familiar... isn't this the legendary survey?" Although he knew that there was no room for fantasy to come true in reality, as an avid reader of fanfic novels, he was well aware of the surveys that authors often use to transport their main protagonists to other worlds.

"Just like what happened to Rob..." he thought to himself.

The screen displayed a message, "Thanks for accepting our survey." The next question asked, "What kind of world would you like to create? Choose from [Fantasy novel], [Manga], [Anime], or [Reality series]."

Pedri thought for a moment and decided, "I'll go with the manga."

The screen displayed a message, "Congratulations! You have a wild desire to create manga in a manga world. A random manga world will be selected to send you to..."

And a description of the selected world appeared, "A world of Gods of Destruction, multiple universes, wild monkeys, wish-fulfilling dragons, different races, and rich planets. In short, a high-level world... Congratulations, the manga world of your desire has been chosen: Dragon Ball."

Pedri was stunned by what he saw. "What kind of nonsense is this?" he muttered to himself.

The screen displayed the main plot of his world, "You will publish the Dragon Ball manga in the world of Dragon Ball and let the inhabitants of the world enjoy its future, whether it changes or not. It doesn't matter." The next message explained, "Given the size and complexity of this manga world, some key points will be determined with your help..."

The screen asked, "In which universe of Dragon Ball would you like to live?"

[First Universe]

[Second Universe]

…

..

[Seventh universe]

…

..

[Twelfth Universe]

Pedri was presented with a list of universes to choose from, ranging from the first to the twelfth. Without hesitation, he chose the seventh universe. "The seventh universe, for sure," he thought. "All the plot of Dragon Ball is centered in the seventh universe. Who in their right mind would choose another universe?"

The screen displayed a message confirming his choice, "The seventh universe has been determined as your starting location." The advertising screen then changed to more questions, still within the context of the legendary survey. Pedri began to enjoy filling in the boxes.

"By participating in the survey, you would receive several benefits, including the ability to select your gender, shape, age, and race."

[Select your gender, shape, age... (edit character option from here)]

"..."

[You can choose from all the races in the world:...]

[Human-type earthlings]

[Sub-race: Beastman]

[Android]

[Demon]

[Sub-race: Demon Realm Race]

[Sub-race: Majin]

[Sub-race: Devil]

[Sub-race: Demon King]

[Dynossor]

[Dragon]

[Sub-race: Eternal Dragon] (Locked)

[Frieza Race]

[Core Person]

[Angel] (Locked)

[Cerealian]

[Namekian]

[Saiyan]

[Sub-race: Legendary Saiyan]

[Sub-race: Super Saiyan God]

[Tuffle]

[God of Destruction] (Locked)

[Animal]

[Sub-race: Monkeys...]

[Sub-race:...]

...

..

The list of different and diverse races continued to appear endlessly before Pedri's wide-open eyes.

In the end, Pedri chose [Sub-race: Super Saiyan God] while swallowing hard. Although both the [Angel] and [God of Destruction] races were tempting, they locked. Also, Pedri preferred the god among Saiyans not only for his badass appearance but for the power and potential of the Super Saiyan God.

[Specify the place and time you prefer (disclaimer: your choice should not be far from the time context and place of the plot of the story, otherwise it will be rejected)]

The survey also asked him to specify his preferred place and time.
