Prolog

"So, I am dead?..... " questioned the slightly confused floating soul in the middle of nothing the previous introduced God. "And you are God…. and because I somehow saved a lot of people I had amast a shit load of Karma, which I am still surprised that that is or was a thing, I am allowed to have a say in my soul's next journey?.... Did I get that right?"

The previous God answered:"Yes, that is roughly it. But you are taking this a lot better than the other that ended up here! Normally they think they are dreaming and/or on drugs. It always takes some time and a lot of arguing to get them to accept."

"This feels way to right… in a way?... Not feeling a body but still existing and everything is so realistic…. I don't know how to describe it."

"I can also remember the first time I ended up in front of a God and had my memories still intact…. ", the God starts to stare fondly in the void.

A silence grew between them which got interrupted by the soul. "Sooooooo, why did I die and how was I able to amass so much Karma? The last thing that I remember is me going to bed after just finishing a quick dinner."

"Yes, you safed roughly 50000 people with your death."

"Ok, ok, ok, you are not making more sense can you please start from the beginning?"

"Yesterday, when you went home from work you picked up some stuff for dinner and a couple of snacks. One of the snacks, if you can remember, you picked up from a free stand in front of the supermarket where they promoted set snack.

You were kinda lucky or unlucky because the staff of the supermarket wasn't supposed to put that out until two weeks later.

But yeah, they realized they made that mistake right after you left so removed the free snack stand immediately and you were the only one who took something from it. Obviously you died from the snacks because the company rushed the production and through a lot of bribing oversaw something significant.

Your body was found the next day by your neighbor who saw you lying unnaturally on your bed. After knocking and a lot of yelling he called the emergency hotline and you were declared dead by them at 10:32 in the morning from food poisoning.

It took the authorities not even until the end of the day to shut down the spretting of the snacks and the company is currently facing a lot of backlash. Your story was on national television and some internations too after the story leaked to the news.

They call you the unlucky hero…

Btw your family will get a lot of money from the upcoming lawsuits and will be set for life so you don't have to be worried about them."

"Wow…. That's a lot to take in… You say my family will be right… That is reassuring at least…. "

The soul metaphorically set down and started to think about his past life. The God waited patiently next to the soul because it knew that this was always the hardest part for the souls.

"So, what is my next journey going to be?"

"Because you died by technically 'self sacrificing' yourself for a lot of people you amast so much karma that you have a lot of choices, like where you want to get reincarnated and how for example."

"Wait, wait, wait. Are you talking about the full package? The kind of reincarnation with my memories intact in a fantasy world with a gamer system?"

"Oh no, systems are only giving to the absolut top of the top. You would have to save your entire planet like 9 times to get a full gamer system. That shit is like so op… The creation would take so much out of me alone… I would have to ask several deities to help with that, but in your case I could give you a really primitive version of it… maybe just affecting your body, but then you would only be allowed to choose your new universe and nothing more."

"Can you give me the AI-Chip from Magus?"

"Maybe but what world would you like to join?"

"One Piece!"

"Ok, then not. The AI-Chip when giving, would sit on your soul and had to run on some power. Haki cannot power it and I cannot give you a devil fruit to power it because your Karma would already be spent. Let me see through all the budget systems… "

The god turned away and started to scroll through a list. He suddenly stopped and began to read something.

"This one works. It's a Nanobot-System. The original one was developed as a super soldier program but is classified as a failure because the Nanobots are basically generating their electricity through nutrition in your body, so to actually use it at 100% throughout the day you would need to eat a full meal every 103 minutes, that's including in your sleep."

"Then why are you suggesting it?"

"The authorities overseeing the project also didn't really think this through like you right now. You can just run it at like 10% speed and just eat like a plate more and it would be fine. Only use it when it is really necessary."

"Are you really recommending this one? You are the experinet one?"

"You can really easily work around it and later upgrade it through teck or devil fruits in the future."

The soul took a moment to think about it.

"I take it, so what are the other things I am allowed to decide?"

"Let me calculate your Karma spending…. your gender, age, the rough time and location and no that's it… ".

"Male and as early as possible but not too young…. so 4 to 6 years old."

"That's locked in, let's give me your location and time?"

"Around the execution of Gold Roger in the West Blue."

"Interesting choices… mmmmmh that's that then."

The soul could feel something happening. He identifies it as speeding up but without moving, because the God was still standing there next to him. Then he realized that the void around him was speeding up and not him. It became faster and faster and after only seeing light the movement stopped abruptly.

He had to hold his soul 'breath'. He was looking at a massive blue planet. He cabed at the sight. The planet was orbited by six moons, where one of them had his only moon. The beauty of the sight was so overwhelming that time froze for a second.

The God interrupted the silence.

"Any last words?"

The soul smirked and yelled.

"Let's go and have some fun!"

The God replied: "That's the right thing soul!".

The soul now started to fall towards the planet…
