Chirp…..Chirp….Chirp
A bird like sound that seems to echoed to the man ears who was sleeping. This woke up the man thinking it was some sort alarm.
As the man woke up, he felt a strange feeling on his hands as it felt cool and damp unlike the soft feeling of the bed.
The man rubbed his eyes and squinted as he just woke up from his sleep. As the man was squintingly looking around, his eyes suddenly widen as what he saw.
What he saw was huge lake Infront of him while they're big trees around it. The man becomes confused as he remembered that his apartment was nowhere a forest or any sort of lake.
"Did I get Isekaid? But where?"
He leaned closer to the lake to inspect his reflection.
Looking at the strange face on the water, the conspicuous red hair, the sword beside him, and the straw hat placed near his feet, the man was very sure that he had traveled through time.
"Hmm….this looks familiar, where did I see this sword?"
The man then looks at the strange sword beside him which looks like a saber with a long green hilt and a circular beige guard, as well as a wide and thin guard around the hilt.
The man took another closer look at his own reflection in the water.
"Red hair? Straw Hat?"
And then suddenly a figure instantly appeared in his mind—red-haired Shanks.
"No way? I traveled to the pirate world and became Shanks?"
At this moment, he sensed a strange power in his body. Then, the man immediately calmed down and followed the inexplicable power to spread out.
His vision seemed to spread out, and all living things within a one-kilometer radius were observed.
It was at this moment that the man confirmed his identity.
"Observation Haki? Am I really Shanks?"
As a any cultured man, he quickly accepted his identity as Shanks, but although he accepted it, Shanks was still very confused at this time.
He was clearly complaining to his friends in the previous life that the plot of One Piece was becoming more and more outrageous, but the next moment after he said that he turned into Shanks.
There was no warning at all, even if it was retribution it wouldn't come so quickly.
But my own appearance, the feeling I just had, and the straw hat lying on the ground not far away, although a little different from what I remembered, the main elements were all there.
He really traveled through another world and became Shanks.
"Now what we need to confirm is the timeline. My observation Haki seems to be quite strong, but I don't know how to use the other power in my body."
"Although Shanks does not have the power of the fruit, his swordsmanship and Haki are among the best in the entire pirate world.
But now I can't even use Conqueror Haki and Armament Haki, and…"
Shanks touched his left arm. It was still there, which meant that he was still very young.
It is very likely that he had just disembarked.
Shanks picked up the straw hat and stood up from the ground. This hat was of great significance, as it had some deep history especially when the previous owner of the hat was the previous pirate king.
But when I think about it being Shanks, it's normal to be so casual.
Putting on his hat, Shanks looked up.
The entire forest was filled with towering trees, which was completely different from his previous life. The trees were even bigger and more lush than those in the so-called primeval forest.
Since this is a world of pirates, domineering is the most important thing.
Of course, physical exercise is also essential. The physical limits of people in the pirate world are extremely terrifying. As long as you are willing to believe in your muscles, you can become stronger.
Thinking of this, Shanks looked at the big tree in the forest.
"Let's see if this body's strength is strong without the haki."
He took a deep breath and looked at the huge tree, he then clenched his fist and made a punching stance.
Whoosh
The next moment, the muscle strength of the body gathered together, and a huge power surged out of Shanks' body at this moment.
Boom!!
The fist with terrifying power hit directly on the big tree in front of him with a diameter of more than three meters. The hard trunk was instantly covered with cracks, and the place hit by the fist was directly dented.
Click.
Immediately afterwards, the huge tree collapsed with a loud bang.
When Shanks saw this scene, the corner of his mouth curled up.
"This body's physical strength is also terrifying, as expected of someone from the pirate world. But that's not enough. Although it's my current limit, I can continue to develop my physical limit."
"Next, let me try my swordsmanship."
Shanks picked up the sword. In his memory, Shanks' weapon was a saber and it was one of the 12 Supreme Grade Blades in One Piece.
Shanks held the saber tightly in his hand, but he didn't feel any familiarity at all.
"As expected, I don't know any swordsmanship. I have to start from the beginning."
As Shanks slashed down with his sword, the sword didn't even cut down a tree.
"Let's practice swordsmanship first."
Shanks now knows his shortcomings. He is okay in other aspects, but his swordsmanship is a bit outrageous.
After figuring out his situation, Shanks also knew which direction he should work towards next.
Since he had no foundation at all, Shanks started from the basics.
The three moves of stabbing, chopping and slashing are enough for Shanks now.
Shanks was also helpless. For him, he couldn't get used to these three movements and could only take one step at a time.
After doing these three actions alone for a day, Shanks felt exhausted.
The good news is that after a day, he had built a wooden house next to it. Although it looked a bit simple, Shanks didn't have high requirements, as long as it could be lived in.
However, feeling his own progress throughout the day, Shanks was still overjoyed. At least now he could hold the weapon properly.
"I'm starving. This kind of training can be considered a little progress, but if I want to become a strong man, I still have a long way to go."
"Although I am very talented, when I think about how Luffy became a Four Emperors-level warrior in just a few years, there is really no comparison between people."
Shanks sighed and said that it took him nearly twenty years to become one of the Four Emperors, and now look at Luffy.
Although I am a genius, he is the protagonist. There is no comparison between people.
"Let's eat first."
Shanks didn't want to think about it anymore. There was no point in thinking too much now.
After a while, a fire was lit outside the cabin and Shanks had already started grilling fish.
There is a lake next to him with plenty of fish in it, so at least Shanks won't starve to death in this place.
As for the taste? As long as it's edible, Shanks is not picky about food.
