Reincarnated in One Piece - Chapter 57
“Again?”
After a brief moment of disorientation, Tang An found himself in a sand-filled world.
He had once again arrived in the world of “Paths” and saw the distant figure of the progenitor, Ymir.
As always, Ymir was like a walking corpse, piling up sand to create Titans, ignoring Tang An’s presence.
“Perhaps only by consuming all nine Titans will there be a change.”
Now, only the War Hammer Titan remained.
In a brief moment of disorientation, Tang An returned to the real world, where only an instant had passed.
“Allen!”
Armin, Connie, and the others were crying hysterically.
Ignoring them, Tang An focused on Zhou Wei lying on the ground.
“We’re from the same place, right?”
Zhou Wei’s face was filled with terror as he looked at Tang An, who had transformed into the Armored Titan and grabbed him. He tried to channel his Nine Yang True Qi, but he couldn’t sense it at all. The two Blood Burst Pills had already left his body in ruins.
In martial arts terms, his dantian was shattered.
Zhou Wei’s pleas and screams did not evoke any pity from Tang An.
With a hardened right hand, Tang An squeezed tightly. Amid the splattering of blood, Zhou Wei let out a final scream before turning into a pile of minced meat that Tang An casually threw to the ground.
At the same time, an invisible energy entered Tang An’s body, but he felt nothing.
Likewise, when he consumed Allen, an invisible energy dissipated from Tang An’s body.
Tang An quickly opened the light screen. After confirming that both Allen and Zhou Wei were dead, he sighed in relief.
He feared that Zhou Wei might not be dead yet. After all, being a reincarnator was a high-status profession, and one never knew what tricks they might have up their sleeve.
But Zhou Wei was genuinely dead, and Tang An felt a sense of unreality.
It was too easy.
Unlike the protagonists in the novels he had read, who always had endless trump cards and were nearly impossible to kill, often turning the tables when one wasn’t careful.
Because of this, Tang An had always viewed Zhou Wei as terrifying. He didn’t hesitate to flee when he couldn’t win, fearing that Zhou Wei might have some trick that would leave him no chance to escape.
Unexpectedly, things went so smoothly.
This was also because Zhou Wei was just a rookie reincarnator who hadn’t yet experienced the harsh realities of society. Otherwise, the outcome might have been different.
Tang An gathered his thoughts and left under the wary eyes of Connie and the others.
Next, he planned to go to the Marley Empire and consume the War Hammer Titan.
As for Armin, Tang An was very kind-hearted.
He had promised Allen to spare these people, but it would be a different story if they sought him out later.
It was only a matter of time.
After all, they would all die in the end.
Tang An was like someone who wanted to act virtuous while being hypocritical.
He was willing to deceive himself with basic decency.
If possible, he would also like to be a trustworthy, good person, but he couldn’t help but want to roll the dice.
The next time they met, they would still be life-and-death friends.
As Tang An left, Sasha and the others fell to their knees in exhaustion, breathing a sigh of relief.
But thinking of Allen, their faces darkened again.
Only Erwin kept watching Tang An’s departing figure.
An hour later, Tang An appeared in a forest, eagerly jumped onto a branch, and opened the light screen.
“Successfully hunted the Child of Destiny in the Attack on Titan world, Allen Yeager. Reward: 4 dice rolls, VIP Luck +1.”
“Successfully hunted a lv.4 reincarnator from the Lord God Space, Zhou Wei. Reward: 4 dice rolls, VIP Luck +1.”
Looking at the description on the light screen, Tang An suppressed his excitement and focused on the VIP Luck +1.
What?
Does even Luck have VIP?
Is there an SVIP next?
But just looking at it, VIP Luck seemed much more prestigious than regular luck.
Ordinary luck could get him things like a BGM that doubled his strength, Senzu beans, or Shave. VIP Luck must guarantee excellent rewards.
Tang An rubbed his hands, feeling excitement and nervousness with eight dice rolls and two VIP Luck chances.
“Let’s begin!”
The fist-sized dice spun and jumped. Whether it was an illusion or not, Tang An felt the dice were also excited.
The number was two, and the model plane crossed two spaces.
“Do you want to use VIP Luck?”
Tang An hesitated for a moment and chose to use it.
The dazzling light flashed. When it disappeared, Tang An stared at the light screen without blinking.
“Soul Devour +1.”
“Description: Touch with both hands to devour any living being’s soul and gain all their abilities. The soul will be purified, enhancing willpower, talent, and senses by one level.”
Tang An was initially stunned, then lit a Furongwang cigarette, exhaled smoke, and read it a few more times.
VIP Luck was indeed extraordinary. Although it seemed simple, it was mighty upon closer inspection.
It could devour any living being’s soul and gain all their abilities.
In other words, if this were the One Piece world, Tang An could touch Whitebeard and gain all his abilities.
He could also do the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, the three types of Haki, and everything Whitebeard could do.
Damn.
This was a one-step-to-heaven ability.
And the soul would be purified, enhancing willpower, talent, and senses.
What was this?
Muscle and tendon cleansing?
Talent enhancement?
And senses, too!
Tang An’s hands trembled as he took a deep drag on his cigarette.
This ability definitely couldn’t be used casually.
The only pity was that it was a one-time consumable. If it were a skill, it would be even better!
Tang An started the second dice roll. The dice spun and jumped, and the model plane crossed three spaces.
“Do you want to use VIP Luck?”
“No.”
Tang An did not use the last VIP Luck.
“Multiplication Table.”
Tang An’s enthusiasm instantly cooled down.
He didn’t even bother to look at it again: one times one is one, one times two is two… What was three times seven again?
Continuing with the third roll, the plane crossed five spaces.
“A pair of original-smell women’s socks.”
“Description: Worn for a year without washing, the smell can easily knock out a wild boar.”
Damn it.
Without the description, Tang An might have accepted it, but after reading it, it was like heaven and hell.
The fourth roll.
“A regular watermelon knife.”
“Description: Made of ordinary steel, as ordinary as can be.”
The fifth roll.
“A genuine Peking duck.”
“Description: Known for its red color, tender meat, rich flavor, and not greasy. Considered ‘the best taste in the world.'”
With a thought, Tang An looked at the fragrant roast duck in his hand and took a bite.
At least it wasn’t expired.
After all, his useless cheat space still had an expired bottle of Lao Gan Ma.
The sixth roll.
“A Gatling gun.”
“Description: Comes with 30,000 bullets, fires 1,000 rounds per minute, no reloading needed, one-minute interval.”
Finally got something good.
This Gatling gun was way better than the 92-style pistol.
Tang An’s cooled enthusiasm warmed up a bit.
The seventh roll.
“Hemorrhoids for a year.”
“Description: A common disease located in the anal area, itchy and painful! No cure.”
Veins popped on Tang An’s forehead, and he looked a bit scary.
The Peking duck in his hand suddenly lost its appeal.
Too much.
This is too much.
Even the month-long constipation was less painful, and Tang An remembered the helplessness.
Last chance.
The dice spun and jumped, and the plane jumped six spaces.
“Do you want to use VIP Luck?”
“Of course, can’t you see my expression?”
Tang An’s face was livid. This useless cheat made no sense at all, so it was useless.
