Only I Know the Plot of the Anime World - Chapter 20
Seeing Sasuke’s contemplative look, Tiger laughed heartily.
“I know what you’re thinking. Who hasn’t had similar thoughts?”
Perhaps out of goodwill, Tiger continued, “Achieving two attributes is already impressive. In all the years, those who reached three attributes are rare, each a terrifying legend.”
He didn’t mention that those top-tier experts were already formidable when they entered the space.
Their inherent excellence made attribute upgrades easier, turning them into incomprehensible monsters to outsiders.
Tiger chose not to tell Sasuke this, fearing it might discourage him. He didn’t want to see such a promising talent give up halfway.
After a word or two, when Sasuke realised the difficulties of being a lone wolf, they might be able to become teammates.
“I’ll be going now. Contact me anytime,” Tiger said, waving before leaving gracefully.
Digesting the information, Sasuke changed his strategy, prioritising attribute points over merit and gear when completing hidden missions.
“20 points bare attribute peak, something to look forward to.”
With no interruptions, he submitted his application for the next storyline world.
[ID 14552 applies to enter the storyline world early.]
Soon, a grand vista unfolded before him, with ocean waves echoing faintly.
A man with wealth, fame, and power started the Great Pirate Era before his execution.
Pirates embodying freedom and adventure,
The Navy upholds justice on the seas,
The World Government maintaining order,
The Celestial Dragons, descendants of gods,
The Revolutionary Army sought to overthrow everything.
Around the Great Treasure “ONE PIECE,” countless pirates raised their flags, beginning their grand journeys.
[Storyline world confirmed. ID 14552 will enter the storyline world: One Piece in 3 hours!]
“One Piece, huh.”
Sasuke’s eyes lit up. This world had a profound plot and power range, perfect for repeated exploration.
Simple plots, like the single-faction conflict in Attack on Titan, limited his actions.
At best, he could find traitors and help Eren master the Coordinate power early to overthrow the old regime.
But One Piece was different, with numerous elements to explore. The various factions intertwined, and even minor bosses could create significant plot points.
With so many “exclusive” secrets, Sasuke could turn the tide given the right opportunity.
Time passed as he pondered, and soon, it was time to enter the storyline world.
Wearing the ODM gear and holstering the Black Star handgun, Sasuke vanished in a flash of light.
Opening his eyes, Sasuke found himself lying on a sandy beach by the coast.
Clear blue waters and seagulls overhead would be a perfect vacation spot if not for the strangers around.
Brushing off the sand, Sasuke discreetly observed the other Reincarnations.
“Wow, there are quite a few people,” someone shouted, annoyed, “This mission must be tough.”
Some nodded in agreement, while others smirked coldly.
Without task details, no one knew who was friend or foe, making many reluctant to get close to others.
In the storyline world, fellow Reincarnation could be more dangerous than the task itself.
Killing a Reincarnator could yield rewards comparable to completing a main quest, with a lucky strike potentially leading to great wealth.
“Look over there,” one Reincarnator exclaimed.
Following the direction, Sasuke saw a group of uniformed Reincarnations, clearly members of a well-known team.
As more noticed them, information about the team surfaced.
“That’s the famous Sound Nest team.”
“The team from the King of Fighters world?”
“Yes, their name is derived from that.”
“King of Fighters? Isn’t that just a fighting tournament world?”
“Not sure, I’ve never been there.”
The five stood solemnly, waiting for the system to announce the mission.
Such large team members usually shared some intelligence, having set objectives from the start.
It’s not like the clueless solo Reincarnators.
However, space missions never went smoothly, maintaining balance and preventing overly powerful teams from dominating.
Soon, another notable group appeared: the “Silver Fox” team, which consisted of only three strong but equally imposing members.
“Wow, two elite teams at once.”
“Yes, completing the mission should be easier.”
“We can’t compete for the top spots, but getting some scraps is enough for upgrades.”
Some Reincarnation began sowing discord, reminding both teams that the best items were for the strongest.
Both teams understood but couldn’t avoid the tactic, a blatant challenge.
“Interesting,” Sasuke smiled, recognising the senior Reincarnators’ tricks. He preferred not to be the target, enjoying the spectacle instead.
Glancing around, he noticed others with similar thoughts, a mutual understanding.
The Sound Nest team, known for its antagonists like Kyo Kusanagi clones and K9999 from the King of Fighters, intrigued Sasuke. He wondered how far they had explored the storyline.
As everyone awaited the mission, the system finally spoke, revealing the task that made everyone tense.

“Faction conflict, kill mode.” Sasuke placed his hand on his waist, retreating slowly.
Killing for merit points meant everyone could be an attacker.
Even same-faction Reincarnators might kill ruthlessly, recalling the fire-controlling youth’s tragic end.
The choices were clear: Pirates or Navy.
While the Navy seemed logical as the sea’s rulers, Sasuke considered factors like the current timeline and the island’s coordinates.
Space wouldn’t initially throw them into the Grand Line, avoiding a hellish start.
The island was most likely in the Four Seas, where power levels were modest, making a gun highly effective.
Just as he planned to leave, the Sound Nest team made a move.
A tall, cool youth stepped forward, scanning the crowd coldly, “The Sound Nest team will join the Navy. Follow us for guaranteed safety.”
A declaration and a threat, refusal meant becoming enemies with the Sound Nest team.
Understanding their message, the beach fell silent, eyes turning to the Silver Fox team.
If they joined forces, the Pirate faction would be a dead end.
Under the watchful eyes of many, a middle-aged man with a long sword stepped from the Silver Fox team.
“Sorry, we’re not the only ones ensuring safety.”
