Boogeyman

I attempted to move my body, but all I felt was excruciating pain. Being stabbed was far from a pleasant experience, to say the least. Well, dwelling on it wouldn't do me any good anyway.

"Hey Nina, I think today's the day I'll finally meet the real Boogeyman," I chuckled, turning my head towards her.

"You really have a knack for making jokes in the most dire situations, don't you, Mr. Boogeyman?" she replied sarcastically, though her eyes betrayed a hint of sorrow.

"I didn't ask for the nickname, you know they gave it to me after that incident..." I retorted.

"Well, that's true. You were quite terrifying back then," she smirked at me.

"It seems like I don't have much time left. I've never felt so weak before," I said, looking at Nina.

"Anyway, I know what I'm getting myself into. Just tell everyone to take care and live without regrets, like me," I whispered softly, struggling to keep my eyes open, but my efforts were in vain.

Nina stared at me, her eyes filled with tears, but I couldn't comprehend her words. Even though she knew I was going to die, she couldn't control her emotions, despite being trained for it her whole life.

As she cried, my life flashed before my eyes. It was unbelievable that one could witness their entire life before death. So, the rumors were true after all, I thought.

From being sold by my parents to ending up in an orphanage, meeting Nina, Vlad, and Kenny, undergoing intense training in combat, firearms, coding, and hacking, even being forced to kill prisoners at the age of 14. If it weren't for Nina, Vlad, and Kenny, I probably wouldn't have survived.

Countless memories flooded my mind. I had lived a truly extraordinary life. Many people might think I had lived a glamorous life like James Bond in the movies, but when I said I had lived one hell of a life, I meant it, quite literally.

As darkness enveloped me, my thoughts became sluggish. I couldn't help but yearn for a different world, free from all constraints...

------------ After what felt like an eternity ------------

My thoughts bombarded me, and as I tried to make sense of my surroundings by delving into my memories, I suddenly felt a splitting sensation in my mind. I screamed, abruptly halting my exploration.

"What the hell was that?" I woke up in a cold sweat, trying to comprehend what was happening. And then it hit me—I could feel my body and see with my own eyes.

A voice echoed in my head.

"[Welcome, Human Soul 01100007001 - ]" a mechanical voice spoke.

"[You have been chosen among countless souls to be bound by the ~ Omniverse System ~ ]"

"[As the first host, I will explain the origin of the system and why it chose you."

"Many intelligent and powerful individuals believe in the theory of the omniverse, despite the lack of evidence. On the other hand, many dismiss it as delusional. However, they couldn't be more wrong.

Trillions of worlds exist across billions of different universes. Earth, the planet you previously inhabited, is one of them. It is a unique universe within the omniverse, with only one planet housing living organisms—Earth itself. Despite its weakness compared to other universes, the people of Earth possess a peculiar soul that gathers dream energy from other universes within the omniverse.

Within this energy, they find memories of other worlds and universes, unconsciously spreading them through folklore, movies, manga, and anime. Zeus, Jesus, Buddha, and many others are examples of this phenomenon.

Reincarnation exists alongside the concept of the omniverse. Most individuals reincarnate without their memories, experiencing up to a thousand lifetimes before their soul perishes.

Your soul, however, has reincarnated a staggering 100,000,000 times, reinforcing itself with dream energy since you were the first human on your planet.

The will of the omniverse has been searching for a worthy soul to protect and evolve the omniverse into a xenoverse. It has utilized all its power to create me—the 'Omniverse System.'"]"

"Wow..." I could only manage to utter as I found myself in this strange white room.

"[Your deepest desire before dying in your previous life was to live in the world of One Piece.]"

And here I am, supposedly reincarnated in the world of One Piece, with my memories sealed until a few minutes ago.

Well, my previous life wasn't exactly enjoyable anyway. How did I die, you ask?

I was killed on a mission, retrieving a damn USB for the KGB—the same organization that bought me from my parents and made my life a living hell. And yet, I died while following their orders. Pathetic, I must say. But hey, let's try to be more positive. This system claims I was the first human on my planet, and that's pretty cool, right?

--------------------------

So, there you have it. Now, I find myself staring at my hands. According to my memories, I am 17 years old. As I stand up from my bed and approach the mirror, I see shiny black hair cascading down to my neck, red eyes that seem to absorb light, and a chiseled, athletic body. From my memories, I know I am 198cm tall and weigh 90kg. I resemble Sung Jinwoo from Solo Leveling, but with a more muscular physique. I'm definitely going to turn heads.

Huh, it seems I'm currently on Down Island. I've managed to build a small house to live in.

"System, show me my current status."
