Ch 04 - Slow Slow Beam

So going off of this idea I put my hands in a Spiderman pose, which I believe is what foxy does in canon, and yell with all my might "Slow-Slow Beam!"

As I yell this suddenly, I feel as if some unknown energy is leaving my hand, going into my outwards facing fingers, and then exploding outwards into space.

As I feel this new sensation, I can see purple energy rings forming a large cone shape that's moving at a relatively fast speed towards the giant.

He was clearly not expecting this, so he doesn't even react as the energy reaches him and the next second all I see is an extremely slow-moving man coming towards me with a stupid face that's full of surprise. He was apparently in the process of lifting his arms to protect himself because all I see are a pair of extremely slow-moving arms.

As I see this happening I stop walking backwards and just stand there in amazement at what I am seeing.

It's one thing to see this on tv and think it funny but seeing this in real life is a whole other ballpark.

I mean it still looks stupid and dumb, but at the same time its amazing since this is basically time manipulation, and in my previous world this was only seen in fiction and in the imagination of people, but now in front of me stood a 12-foot giant moving at a pace that even snails would be able to outpace him.

As I am mesmerized by this scene, I quickly snap out of it because I remember that the timer for this thing is 30 seconds and it's already been like 15 seconds.

Therefore, I quickly bring my hands up again and quickly say again, "slow-slow beam," and again "slow-slow beam".

This does the trick because I can barely see him moving at all now, it seems like he is completely still, and that should give me 30 seconds again, I think.

As I see this happening, I quickly come up with a plan of action on what to do to this guy and just as the original foxy, I go up to the guy, barely reaching his chest, and start punching him in his gut as hard as I can.

I would go for the balls since they are so easy to reach with his stature, but I don't feel comfortable popping someone's balls… and in the end his actions didn't really affect me at all, I mean it was disgusting and evil that he just killed that guy foxy so easily and he even seemed happy about it, but in the end, I didn't really like that guy and I don't even know him so… also if what I believe is true and I am in One Piece then it wouldn't be a stretch to say that what happened here is a very common occurrence, so I best get used to it.

And as I'm punching him in the same spot over and over again, I quickly notice that my arms feel like they are in better shape and my body in general feels lighter when I move to throw a punch.

They don't particularly look more muscular, in fact I would say they in fact look skinnier and slenderer, but the strength generated Is somehow greater than what seems to be possible.

This feeling of strength amazes me because I was never really fit and so I quickly enjoy this feeling of my body feeling like a well-oiled machine.

All of this enjoyment however comes crashing down because I remember where I am, and it's clear that I'm still pretty goddamn weak by the standards of this world.

As can be attested by the bulging muscles of this guy in front of me, even though he said that he only had a 25 million belly bounty. Which as all fans of the show know…IS COMPLETE TRASH!

Anyways, after a while of losing myself in my thoughts while punching this guy as hard as I can, time finally catches up to me and the guy that I've been punching for a while suddenly gets sent flying back like a cannonball and rams right into a rock that was right by the ledge of the cliff.

It luckily only shatters halfway and prevents his body from falling down into the steep rocks below.

As I see this phenomenon I'm amazed because seeing a 12-foot giant go cannonballing back at a few hundred miles per hour is fucking amazing!

As I was celebrating my victory, I hear a "UGGH" from the giant as he seems to still be conscious taking all of that beating to the gut, I'm surprised the fucker can even breath.

Just as I was about to repeat the process, but this time to his head, I hear a woman yell to the right of me, "O-Oh w-wait a second!"

After turning around to face the approaching woman I can undoubtedly say that this is one of the most beautiful women I've ever come across.

As I examine her further, I can quickly tell that she has clearly been crying over the bleeding corpse of that guy named foxy, which as far as I can remember makes sense since I remember this chick being pretty loyal to the guy, even going so far as doing stupid things in order to get his approval...

"What is it?" I reply curiously since I doubt she wants me to have mercy on him; and yes, I wasn't going to have mercy on him, I don't personally believe in giving all that many chances to people who are clearly bad.

I mean this guy wanted to gang-rape this woman and mind break her into being a sex slave for fun or something, which according to many including myself, is one of the most sinful and disgusting acts a man can do.

Also, like previously stated, this is the One Piece world…Need I say more? Ok, bloodthirsty Pirates, bloodthirsty Marines, casualty accepting Revolutionaries, slaving Celestial Dragons…need I go on?

Anyways the gist is that bloodshed in this world is extremely common…I still remember the fight between Ace and Black beard on an occupied island, two individuals with extremely powerful devil fruits fighting, one is even a decent fellow and as can be clearly seen in the anime, he didn't give a shit about civilians and innocent bystanders when he was fighting his enemy.

Which again makes sense, since 1 millisecond of inattention is all that is needed in this world to decide on the winner and the loser (Only for top fighters of course).

All that this means in the end is that it is extremely common for mass casualties to occur when powerful figures are fighting nearby, or a bunch of cannon fodders are involved which usually leads to more direct encounters.

As I digress, the woman that If I remember correctly is called Porche continues talking "H-he k-killed b-boss, P-please sir I want to be the one to e-end him".

As I process what she just requested I widen my eyes slightly but then nod my head in understanding.

To those complaining of mc being cowardly or too soft... you do realize it's been less than 5 minutes he's been in this world, he's still just a city kid, he ain't no badass yet. Also don't worry he ain't no pussy either, he will grow and kill, etc.

Cheers
