Chap 01 STILL SURPRISED

"This one. This one took the cake. A talking contraption. That's what I was seeing right now. That's what it looked like and that's what it was.

You know, after all the shit I've been through on this island in the last year, I'm still surprised. It's even bloody talking and revving. I have no words. I expected this kind of shit here. After all, I'm in THE One Piece world, but just not this way, you know? I mean, it hasn't even been one year completely. Sure, I've fought beasts to survive, lived off coconuts, and got a SYSTEM and unexpected gifts, got insane luck and shit but still..... Hmm when I say it out loud guess I really shouldn't be this surprised.

Hmm, what's that I hear? How did it come to this, you ask? Well, sit tight folks and listen as I tell you the crazy ride I've been on in the last month.

~ Flashback ~

"Caw... caw..."

That's what I first heard. Then the sounds of waves crashing on the shore could be heard.

That wasn't right. If I was waking up anywhere, it was in the safety of my bed in my mansion. And let me tell you something, folks, my mansion is nowhere near the sea, hence my confusion.

"What the fuck!"

I exclaimed and sat up, opening my eyes so fast I could have had a head rush. But I didn't. Instead, it was a freaking ocean that greeted me, giving me a headrush. I was so shocked that I couldn't even process what was going on. I found myself on some kind of island in the middle of an ocean. Or at least,. then...then I felt it. I felt it like a shot in my guts.

I knew something was wrong with me when I first came to. But was too busy assessing the situation to look deeper.

I DIDN'T know who I was!!!.

I mean I had my memories of past life but I couldn't remember any names or faces. Or remember the emotions I had in my past life. I remembered all the anime, mangas and movies etc. I also remembered all the skills and practical and academic knowledge. I also remembered how to play guitar and sing. even paint and carve which I guess were my hobbies. But people like anyone or anything I had an emotional connection which tied me to that reality were gone.

theoretical knowledge I had acquired in my past life was also present I even remembered some kind of war, but my own identity was a blank slate. It was as if my past life had been erased from my mind, leaving me with only the knowledge and skills I had gained.

As I sat there on the sandy beach, I couldn't help but feel a surge of frustration and confusion. Who was I? How did I end up here with nothing but my clothes on? On this island in this state?

or at least I assumed it was an island. That's when I noticed the tiny details of the scenery before me. I noticed clearer than ever the difference.

The ocean was bluer than the sky on a clear day, with waves crashing against the shore in a rhythmic dance. The sandy beach stretched as far as the eye could see, adorned with swaying coconut trees whose leaves were a vibrant shade of green.

The air was tinged with a salty breeze that filled my lungs, and the distant calls of seabirds echoed in the air, adding a sense of serenity to the scene. It was a world unlike anything I had ever seen before, with a beauty that seemed almost surreal.

As I took in my surroundings, And then I felt it. like a gut feeling, or extra memory you have in your head. I was definitely not on Earth. A tinge of fear and uncertainty crept into me. I was alone, with no recollection of how I got there and no idea what to do next.

With my curiosity piqued and my senses heightened, I took my first steps into the journey of this new world, eager to know what the fucks going on. Little did I know that the journey ahead would be more perilous and exhilarating than anything I could have imagined.

But for now, standing on that pristine beach, I marveled at the breathtaking beauty of this world. but once again little did I know the journey would start and be much much stranger than I thought.
