One Piece: Starting with picking up garbage

What does hunger feel like?

For Yeyin, who lived a life free from worries about food and clothing, raised on the high dividends brought by his parents since childhood, hunger was a completely unfamiliar concept.

But now, he knew what hunger felt like.

His empty stomach protested incessantly, his limbs were weak, and he felt dizzy.

An indescribable pain surged in waves, like the ocean's rising tides.

The intense suffering brought an incredibly vivid realization.

["Ding! The Garbage Collecting System has been successfully integrated."]

As the strong feeling of hunger intensified, an electronic mixed tone sounded in Yeyin's ear.

"A garbage collecting system?"

After a moment of confusion, Yeyin realized he had traveled to another world.

Moreover, it was a kind of soul-transmigration!

As an ordinary high school student, Yeyin had simply been playing on his phone in bed, and when he woke up, he found himself in this strange place!

"Buzz…"

At that moment, a strange wave of energy hit him, and Yeyin, who had been feeling very weak, felt a bit more alert.

At the same time, some information flooded into his mind.

"Kingdom of Goa, Gray Terminal?"

A massive influx of information instantly filled Yeyin's mind.

The previous owner of this body was named Glott Yeyin.

His parents had passed away from illness years ago, leaving him an orphan.

In Goa Town, a few years old orphan couldn't survive.

Later, the previous owner fell ill and was discarded here by people from the Kingdom of Goa.

In a place filled with garbage, at the Gray Terminal.

Looking at the mountains of trash around him, Yeyin's hunger seemed to vanish.

Although he didn't know what this system could do, there was plenty of garbage here to collect!

["Ding! Picked up a broken food bag, obtained a piece of bread."]

He casually picked up a garbage bag, and the familiar electronic mixed tone sounded again.

At the same time, a warm piece of bread appeared in his hand.

"This... is my lucky break?"

"Whew…"

Before Yeyin could think further, his body instinctively began to eat.

As the piece of bread filled his stomach, the satisfaction from acquiring food flooded his entire being.

Food is the most important thing for people, and it wasn't just a saying.

"Well, what about this?"

Yeyin said as he picked up a bottle from the ground.

["Ding! Discovered an aged broken wine bottle, obtained a barrel of rum."]

With the system's prompt echoing, Yeyin looked at the mountain of garbage before him with shining eyes!

Although there were no resources here, there sure was a lot of garbage!

"Glug glug…"

"I'm coming, One Piece world!"

After gulping down the rum, Yeyin shouted this with bravado.

"Alright, let's get to work!"

Even though he had arrived, he still needed to collect garbage!

["Ding! Picked up a broken newspaper, obtained 1000 Berries."]

...

["Ding! Picked up a piece of rag, obtained a full set of clothing."]

["Ding! Congratulations, host! You have successfully collected ten pieces of junk and earned the title of 'Super Rookie of Rummaging."]

Hearing the system's prompt, Yeyin set down the various items he had gathered and changed into the new clothes.

At the same time, he couldn't help but grumble that this system was a bit unfriendly.

This title was just too…

"System, what's the use of this title?"

Yeyin tried to ask.

Wasn't it said that hosts could communicate with the system?

Now that Yeyin was free from worries about food and clothing, he wanted to give it a try.

["Ding! Display the interface."]

With the sound of an electronic mixed tone, a black interface appeared before Yeyin.
