Chapter 1 - Character Creation

"Huh? Where am I?" the man muttered, blinking in confusion.

"I could've sworn I just finished watching the final episode of One Piece."

He glanced around. An endless expanse of white stretched before him, soft, cloudlike, almost like cotton reaching as far as his eyes could see.

"One Piece finally ended. What a ride," he said under his breath.

"It's the greatest piece of fiction ever created. The twist in the last arc was... was so good."

He chuckled to himself.

"Not even Einstein could've created something like what Eiichiro Oda wrote."

His smile faded as he looked around once more.

"But seriously... where the hell am I?"

POOF!

A spinning wheel suddenly materialized out of nowhere, accompanied by a floating book that hovered beside it.

"What the—?" he gaped.

"Wait... don't tell me I'm being transmigrated?" The thought hit him like a bolt from the blue.

His eyes flicked to the spinning wheel.

'One Piece Character Creation.'

Then to the floating book...

'One Piece: Compendium.'

He stared, wide-eyed.

Was this real?

Was this actually happening?

He stepped closer to the spinning wheel.

POOF!

A translucent screen appeared before him, glowing faintly in the air.

Race:

Fighting Style:

Durability:

Strength:

Speed:

Intelligence:

Battle IQ:

Special Ability:

Conqueror's Haki:

Observation Haki:

Armament Haki:

"So I spin the wheel to fill these in?" he murmured, eyes scanning the list.

"Is this… going to be me in the One Piece universe?"

A thrill coursed through him.

He reached out.

"Let's do this."

With a swift motion, he spun the wheel.

It clacked rhythmically as it spun, slowing after a few seconds.

Race: Lunarian

His eyes widened.

"This… this might be the best race in the One Piece universe!"

Excitement bubbled in his voice.

"They practically have a built-in Devil Fruit. They can produce flames—and King even managed to generate magma like fire!"

"And that's not all," he continued.

"They've got insane durability and vitality. It's like they've got a switch for their defense."

He lifted a finger, mimicking the motion.

"When the flame rises from their back, it means their defense is at maximum. Even Zoro struggled to cut King at first."

He grinned.

"You can also boost your speed by turning the fire off... but that drops your defense."

He glanced back at the screen.

"Not that it matters... I've still got 'Durability' to roll for."

He cracked his knuckles.

"Let's spin again!"

TOK...

TOK...

TOK.

The wheel clicked to a stop once more.

Fighting Style: Zoro

His eyebrows lifted.

"Does that mean I'll be using three weapons?"

Before he could ponder further, another panel popped up on the screen below.

Weapon 1:

Weapon 2:

Weapon 3:

A grin spread across his face.

"Oh hell yes."

He spun the wheel again.

Durability: Kaido

"God damn!" he exclaimed.

"On top of having Lunarian defense, I've got Kaido's durability?"

He laughed in disbelief.

"That means I don't even have to worry about switching off my defense for speed boosts!"

He paced.

"Kaido's renowned as the strongest creature in the One Piece world. The man can take brutal attacks and just kept going."

"Remember his intro? He literally jumped from 10,000 meters in the sky and stood up like it was a minor inconvenience."

He exhaled sharply.

HOOH.

"Okay... calm down."

Another spin.

Strength: Whitebeard

His jaw dropped.

"Holy shit! Whitebeard—the strongest man in the world, even in death!"

"Some say he was even a bit stronger than Roger in his prime."

"He don't even need his Devil Fruit. His raw strength alone could cause earthquakes."

Another spin.

Speed: Sanji

His eyes lit up.

"Sanji became the fastest man in the world by the end of One Piece. Even without a Devil Fruit, his speed outclassed Kizaru, and he moves at the speed of light!"

Another spin.

Intelligence: Vegapunk

He froze.

"No—wait. Don't tell me my head's gonna turn into a floating island or something."

He winced, then relaxed.

"Right, right. That was the result of his Devil Fruit. I'm safe."

A grin tugged at his lips.

"Still, that makes me one of the smartest people in the entire One Piece universe."

Another spin.

Battle IQ: Luffy

He nodded.

"Luffy's battle IQ is insane."

"He picked up advanced Haki like it was child's play. Katakuri had mastered advanced Observation Haki over years—and Luffy learned it mid-fight and beat him."

"And then Kaido's Ragnaraku hits him like a truck... and Luffy wakes up with the knowledge to coat his Conqueror's Haki."

Another spin.

Body Constitution: Blackbeard

He stared at the screen.

"I can eat three Devil Fruits?"

He was speechless for a moment. Then shook his head slowly.

"Damn... would I be overpowered?"

He paused—then his expression hardened.

"No. I need everything to survive—especially after what happened in the final arc."

"Imu alone is enough to destroy the world. And Luffy can too. If I want to stand a chance in the One Piece world... I need power and strength."

Another panel lit up below the screen.

Devil Fruit:

Devil Fruit:

Devil Fruit:

He spun the wheel again.

Special Ability: IMU

His eyes widened.

"Regeneration…"

"I can basically regenerate from anything—even missing limbs or a blown-out head. Unless," he paused, "they use a special type of Haki."

"Like what Gaban used on Sommers. Even though Sommers had regeneration, Gaban sliced him up easily."

Another spin.

Armament Haki: Garp

"Garp is the undisputed king of Armament Haki."

"He can coat shockwaves with advanced armament haki—turning a simple punch into a nuke."

"In his prime, he could destroy an island in a single strike. He stood shoulder to shoulder with Roger and Whitebeard at the very top."

Another spin.

Observation Haki: Katakuri

"I was hoping for Shanks... His Observation Haki lets him see a full minute into the future."

He shrugged.

"But Katakuri's no slouch. He can see several seconds ahead—and that alone lets him change the outcome of entire battles."

Spin.

Conqueror's Haki: Shanks

He pumped a fist.

"Let's go!"

"Shanks' Conqueror's Haki goes beyond anyone else in the series—at least until the last few arcs."

"And this, all of this is just my starting point in the One Piece universe."

"I can still increase these powers and abilities until I reach—or even surpass—what Luffy achieved in the end."

The wheel shimmered. The categories vanished, replaced by a glowing new interface.

Devil Fruits.

He placed his hand on the wheel.

"Let's see what I'll get."

Spin.

Devil Fruit 1: Quake-Quake Fruit

His jaw dropped.

"Whitebeard's fruit! The one that can literally destroy the world!"

Spin.

Devil Fruit 2: Bloom-Bloom Fruit

He nodded, impressed.

"Robin's fruit... the Hana Hana no Mi."

"I can sprout limbs anywhere. Create clones, generate giant body parts. With awakening, I can create a gianst version of myself."

He grinned.

"Now imagine using the Bloom-Bloom Fruit to spawn hands all across the battlefield... and then activating earthquakes with the Quake-Quake Fruit."

Spin.

Devil Fruit 3: Warp-Warp Fruit

He whistled.

"Teleportation..."

"I can warp to anywhere I can see. And once awakened, I can teleport to any place I've previously been."

"Escape, infiltration, or strategic repositioning—every thing is possible with this fruit "

Then the screen shifted again.

Finally, Weapons.

The wheel transformed, now filled with legendary blades and tools.

He grinned.

"Alright... final three spins."

Spin.

Weapon 1: Yakuza Kazen

"A Supreme Grade sword... Fujitora's blade."

Spin.

Weapon 2: Yoru

His breath caught.

"Mihawk's sword. The strongest blade in the world."

Spin.

Weapon 3: Ace

He stood still. "Roger's sword."

Though replication, It's still the same level as the original.

The screen pulsed once more—and dimmed.

Everything around him began to glow.

Character creation complete.

"Now that that's done," he muttered, "time to check the book."

He reached out and grabbed the floating book.

'One Piece: Compendium.'

He flipped it open.

"So this is the timeline of the past... and the future. This'll come in handy if I forget any details from the manga or anime."

In an instant...

On an island in the East Blue...

A towering, dark-skinned man—easily nine feet tall—stood beside a river, peering at his reflection in the water.

He had striking white hair, a sharp jawline, and muscles like sculpted granite.

"Not bad," he smirked. His voice was rich, smooth.

"This look really did me justice…" Blitz muttered, admiring himself.

"I mean, I was already good-looking in my past life… but this? This is a whole new league."

"And all in all, I'm tall!"

He turned around.

Sitting atop a boulder behind him were three strange-looking fruits. Leaning against the same boulder were three swords.

"When I woke up on the beach, the fruits and swords were right beside me," he said, stepping forward.

He reached for the first Devil Fruit—a vibrant blue one, with crack-like lines spiraling across its skin.

The Quake-Quake Fruit.

He took a bite.

Juice squelched out, and his expression twisted in pure disgust.

"What the fuck is this taste?!" he gagged.

"This is the worst thing I've ever eaten."

He forced himself to chew.

"Thank god I only need one bite…"

Suddenly, a strange tremor ran through his body—the feeling passed in an instant.

"Damn… I feel like I could crack the sea in half."

He glanced at the other fruits.

"Alright… two more."

Plugging his nose, he picked up the second one.

It was shaped like a blooming flower.

The Bloom-Bloom Fruit.

He bit into it.

"Ugh!" Even with his nose pinched, the taste was unbearable.

"Nope. Still disgusting."

The moment he swallowed, another wave of energy rushed through him.

"Okay, last one…"

He grabbed the third Devil Fruit—a sleek, pale-purple fruit with spiral indentations.

The Warp-Warp Fruit.

He eyed it.

"This one belonged to Van Augur... the sniper from Blackbeard's crew."

"By the end, he was the third-best marksman in the world. First was Usopp… then Yasopp… then Augur."

He nodded.

He took a bite.

The bitterness hit instantly, but he powered through.

He exhaled.

"All three abilities..."

"Wait?! But what year is it?"
