One Piece Devouring Fruit - Chapter 2

As an ordinary person raised in a city, Michion truly didn’t know what to do when facing the wilderness full of unknowns.

Survival in the wild looks manageable in books, but it’s a whole different story in practice.

If not for inheriting this kid’s memories, which included two years of wandering life, Michion would have thought his death was near. After all, there’s a significant difference between surface understanding and practical application.

Even if his memories from his previous life are clear, as if engraved in his mind due to the transmigration, so what?

Even if he had read the pirate chronicles and knew the direction of history, so what?

None of it is useful; he first needs to focus on surviving.

Relying on a child’s memories to survive as an adult is ironic and not amusing at all. Only by truly arriving in this world can one understand how bittersweet and cruel it is behind the scenes.

But this vast world is just like that.

Cruelty and brilliance shine together, with good and bad mixed.

Therefore, this world is magnificent, with battles and power, ambition, and dreams converging into one word—freedom!

Unbridled freedom!!

When Michion confirmed the current year from the Navy personnel, his memory told him.

The era of the great rampage is about to begin.

Ocean Calendar Year 1493.

The future Pirate King, Gol D. Roger, is probably already suffering from an incurable disease.

Later, the Roger Pirates sought help from the era’s top doctor, Crocus, to join the crew and start their final voyage.

Crocus joined the Roger Pirates as a ship doctor to search for the Rumbar Pirates’ whereabouts.

Ocean Calendar Year 1498.

One year after the Roger Pirates disbanded, Gol D. Roger surrendered to the World Government and was officially captured.

Roger’s execution took place in Loguetown, the place of his birth.

However, the Navy did not expect Roger’s death to usher in the Great Pirate Era.

The era began to rampage.

Countless heroes and adventurers sailed towards the sea, and anyone standing in their way would be mercilessly crushed.

In the upcoming era of rampage, three names will resonate throughout the world:

The future Pirate King—Gol D. Roger.

The man feared in songs as “scarier than monsters,” known as the most muscular man in the world—Whitebeard.

The captain of the Flying Pirates, with a vast fleet, known as the “Flying Pirate”—Shiki the Golden Lion.

In this impending era, one of the future Four Emperors, Red-Haired Shanks, is merely an apprentice on Roger’s ship.

Kaido of the Beasts is a great pirate, but his fame is not as grand as his future title as one of the Four Emperors, let alone the Three Calamities.

As for the future female Emperor, Charlotte Linlin of the “Big Mom Pirates” hasn’t gained weight yet and is still somewhat attractive.

However, after marrying many husbands and producing numerous offspring, her figure became distorted….

As for the future Seven Warlords of the Sea, they are all sailing the seas, but some have yet to grow and remain unseen.

For instance, the young Crocodile, in his early twenties, is ambitiously seeking Whitebeard’s head.

Dracule Mihawk has yet to become the world’s greatest swordsman and is wandering the world, aiming for that title.

These future renowned Seven Warlords are still on their path to growth.

On the Navy side, there are three “monster” Logia users.

The old generation of Admiral Zephyr, Fleet Admiral Kong, Sengoku, and Garp are all forces that awe the sea.

In such an era, Aburahamu Michion knew that absolute peace was impossible.

Initially, when he arrived in this world, his first thought was to return.

This place was too dangerous, and the countless unfamiliar entities made him instinctively defensive, wanting to find familiar ground.

But after accepting reality, he found his longing for his peaceful past life was not as strong.

In his past life, as a doctor, he became a young and wealthy surgeon through his efforts and the arrangements of his adoptive parents.

Due to adoption, his adoptive parents were much older than Michion. Although they regretted not seeing him marry and have children, they passed away peacefully, grateful for Michion’s filial piety.

Afterward, Michion lived alone, leading a mechanical life daily.

Performing surgery on patients mechanically every day.

Wearing a mask, Michion could not feel the joy of living. One might call him ungrateful, but he genuinely couldn’t feel alive.

His innate combat instincts ignited only when witnessing thrilling battles, making him eager to move.

But without exception, these urges were suppressed by his professional ethics and willpower.

For someone longing for battle, living in a world entirely of “shackles” destined to a life of mediocrity.

Because your most dazzling light couldn’t be used, how could you compare to those who could showcase their talents in peaceful times?

Like a general lamenting the lack of opportunities to charge and kill when the war ends, he feels sorrow but is more grateful for the peace, ensuring no more soldiers die.

Like Zhang Michion, who longed for the extraordinary but blended peacefully into the ordinary world.

As a doctor who participated in humanitarian aid in war zones, he knew the pain brought by wars, so he had no complaints about peace.

But if there was a world war, the solitary Zhang Michion may become a hero fighting for the country and people.

But that was impossible.

Unexpectedly, one night, while watching One Piece for the third time, Zhang Michion dozed off, and though there was no infinite loop, he woke up as Aburahamu Michion.

Despite the mechanical life numbing him, the disregard for life and the difficulty of survival in this world were overwhelming jumps in difficulty.

It made Michion want to return to that peaceful and warm world.

Unfortunately, Michion had to accept reality and find that this world was what he truly desired!

However, as a child with good social values from his past life, Zhang Michion, and the well-mannered Aburahamu Michion, never wanted to become a pirate.

Not only because of past life values but also because he witnessed the pain pirates brought with their plundering and killing—even being a victim himself.

Initially, he could have smoothly reached the Navy headquarters for a golden start, but now even a silver start seems unlikely.

Being a pirate was never an option; this life, being a pirate, was out of the question! He wouldn’t commit crimes nor get captured by the Navy for being a pirate.

If anything, Michion belonged to the neutral good camp, but undeniably.

Although the Navy is seen as the antagonist in One Piece, it maintains order in the sea.

But unfortunately, this world is not told from a pirate’s perspective.

Weapons, assassinations, slavery, and even nation-destroying darkness are everywhere.

Thus, Michion felt joining the Navy to uphold justice was a good choice.

Becoming strong enough to ignore threats, battling the world’s intense, tasting this world’s cuisine, and experiencing its different wonders.

Then, finding a beautiful young woman, settling on an island as a protector in old age, and living a peaceful life wasn’t bad.

But all of this was premised on his surviving.
