A young man reincarnated into One Piece. What's more is that he is born in Birka, Sky Island. Join his journey from being weak to strong. My first fanfic, so don't expect a lot, but I would appreciate some constructive criticism. Trying to update daily, but it will depend.
A young man was laying in bed reading fanfiction. He appeared to be around 18-19 years old and had Asian features. He wasn't ugly per se; however, he had a poor sense of fashion and style that made him look unkempt.
He abruptly locked his phone and placed it on the desk beside him. He sighed, thinking 'what kind of shitty ideas are people coming up with nowadays... thinking of reincarnating into Naruto, High School DxD, or whatever.'
He thought that each of these worlds was unfair except to a minority. In Naruto, unless you were in a clan with a Keikei Genkai or some other unique feature you were bound to be at most mediocre. The same goes for HDXD, but it would be Sacred Gear or race that determined your worth. Even in Black Clover, nobles had much more mana than the majority, with Asta although being an exception still had a unique feature, his anti-magic.
He personally thought that the best world to reincarnate into would be One Piece. This of course was without any dumbass cheats or systems that literally broke the balance of everything.
He sighed, "Well all this useless thinking is for nothing, shit like reincarnation is just impossible".
[HONK HONK]
"WhAt thE FcK!!"
White light filled his vision and he could only hear a subtle ringing.
After who knows how long, he heard an old husky voice that sounded familiar, "Hello young man, welcome to the afterlife".
The young man still unable to see anything, said "Uhh... David Attenborough?".
*Unknown* Cough cough "No, I am what you might call a ROB. The voice you hear is the voice that you think is most calming and authoritative."
The young man thought 'this is becoming really cliche.' With a sigh the young man said "So let me guess, you killed me or something and want to see me reincarnated for your enjoyment?".
The ROB appeared in the expanse of light, as a kind-looking old man in white robes.
The ROB smirked, "Maybe or maybe not... Let's get straight to the point. I'll be reincarnating you no matter what and you get to keep your memories. I'm also generous enough to give you a choice of which world you want to go to and also a choice of a passive powerup."
The young man asked "What kind of 'powerup'?"
The ROB still smirking said "Stuff like regeneration, super strength, but there is a limit. This is just to make sure you don't die straight off the bat and also so you don't 'break the balance."
The young man was shocked, 'Was this old fart listening to me back then? Doesn't this sound familiar? '
The ROB stayed in silence and continued to wait for the young man's response.
The young man finally breaks the silence, "I want to be reincarnated into One Piece, and for my passive can I have an increased learning passive?"
The ROB nodded and said, "One Piece huh? So you chose that world, good choice. However, one of the limits for the passive is that it has to be a physical passive".
The young man with an annoyed face said "Why didn't you say that in the first place?!"
The ROB with a pleased look on his face said "I don't know, I just thought it wasn't that important."
The young man narrowed his eyes and snarked "Then just give me an increased physical training passive!"
The ROB said "Heheeheh, okie dokey. Well then, do you have any other questions?"
The young man said "What about my background? Family? Location? Timeline?"
The ROB said "Oh? Oh, yea! Thanks for reminding me. Well... what do you want?"
The young man clearly very excited said "I want to be the child of a Celestial Dragon and be born 3 years before Luffy!". He thought 'I'll have all the resources and time to become overpowered before Luffy comes along and fucks things over'.
The ROB with a big smile on his face said "Yea no. Your gonna be an orphan and let's say born 1 year before Luffy. I'll let you pick the location cause I'm feeling nice".
The young man with a frown on his face thought 'THIS PIECE OF SHIT! STOP PLAYING AROUND!'.
After taking a deep breath, he said "Sky Island, Birka".
The ROB said "Alright, your all set. Prepare for liftoff! I hope you have a splendid journey."
Without waiting for the young man's response, the young man's body disappeared into the expanse of light heading towards what would be his new home.
