One Piece: I'm Not Intentionally Flashing People!

CHAPTER 1

-

Huh. I thought the air conditioner was on in my room. Why was it so warm... and scratchy? As I turned around in my sleep to adjust my pillow, I was surprised to find grains in my hand instead of the comfy cotton pillow.

What?

My eyes opened, and I looked at the grains in my palm, revealing... sand? Since when did my room have sand? And is that wave of water I'm hearing?

I got up from the ground, mouth gaping at the missing bed. No, in fact, my whole room was missing! I was... in some kind of beach area with a wide stretch of sand with the scene of a beautiful ocean? Where the fuck am I?

I used my t-shirt to wipe my eyes to get rid of the sleep crust to double check that I was in the right place. I even pinched my arm hard, wincing at the pain, only to determine that this wasn't a dream after all; I was in a whole different place.

Sitting on the sand, I placed a hand on my head as I looked at the scenery with confusion.

"How, where, and why?"

I was about to add more to the questioning when a flash of memories slammed into my brain like a freight train, causing me to clutch my head in pain from the sudden amount of information I was gaining.

A few seconds of agonizing pain later, I breathed heavily as I got my answers.

"Oh fuck, oh fuck, shit, shit, shit, SHIT!"

Seriously? I was dragged into another world by a random omnipotent being! This just gave me more questions, but I pushed it back for now due to some worrying information.

One, I was in One Piece. That alone is making me shit my pants in horror. On the surface, One Piece was a cheerful anime where the gang went on fun adventures. But behind the scenes was a fucked up world where mega racists walk as gods without any repercussions, a government that is corrupt to the core, helping said "gods," beings large and small that can kill with a single strike, and more.

Two, I had memories of the plot in One Piece. I'm a hard fan that watched all arcs, filler included. Let's emphasize the word "had" here. I... kind of forgot. Not by choice, mind you. The damn R.O.B. sealed all my memories!

The words of the R.O.B. were...

"I'm not letting you spoil shit. It'll be like déjà vu; you'll still have to get them, and you'll get vague parts of your memory when you meet or do something, but you'll get them in bulk once you finish an "arc," so to speak."

What a bastard, am I right?

... He did give me something though, so that's something depending on what angle you look at it. I looked around the beach to find the item that the R.O.B. gave me; it should be around here... Ah, there we go.

I walked to the place where the item is, thank goodness the R.O.B. sent me here with my sneakers, and grabbed said item from the sand. A weird-looking white mango-shaped fruit with swirls over its skin and its stem still attached.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen. I got a Devil Fruit. You know, I had no idea what it was until I saw it; this sealed memory thing is getting annoying. There's just one slight problem. I don't know what kind of Devil Fruit this was; the R.O.B. didn't give me the specific details of what kind I get, only that I get one as my only boon.

The guy was an asshat, but he did give some kind of info. I was supposed to meet some people soon on this island. That wasn't much to play with, but I'll do what I can with this information.

As for food, there's plenty in the forest... I had to gather and produce them myself. I don't have a bone of survival in my blood at all; I'm used to modern society.

I am so screwed.

I stared at the weird-looking fruit. I think I have to eat it to survive. I mean, there's no such thing as a weak Devil Fruit power, only weak Devil Fruit users. I could get something insane like a Logia, but Zoan-types and Paramecia-types were great options too.

What a pain in the head! I think I'll put eating it off for now...

Hmm... It is looking quite appetizing though... Like it's drawing me in...

Gulp. I swallowed the sudden lump of saliva in my throat as the fruit seemed to release some eerie aura, but I couldn't look away for some reason.

A-A single bite wouldn't hurt, right? Hehehehe...

Wait, every fruit tastes horrible, no? Man, this blows.

... Thinking about it a little more, against my better judgement, I decided to just eat it, because fuck it, you only live once!

Grabbing the fruit, I thought of removing its skin first, but recalled that some guy ate a Devil Fruit with the skin on easily. So, I tried taking a bite of the Devil Fruit.

"Thank you for the food. Nom!"

...

...

...

"BLEGH!"

Holy shit it was rancid! It's as if I just ate the vilest fruit known to mankind, and it was rotten to boot! I almost spat the mouthful out, but instantly reeled back my disgust as I swallowed the fruit after giving it a few chews to avoid any large chunks being stuck in my throat.

"Oh, god, its so bad."

Looking at the remainder of the fruit, I took a deep breath before sucking up, eating the whole fruit in its entirety with a disgusted face painted on my face. Taking the last bite of the Devil Fruit, I forced the bile back down my stomach and gave one last swallow before breathing heavily, shuddering when recalling the taste.

"Never again, though I can't eat another one anyway."

But... I did gain some information about my Devil Fruit powers after swallowing the first bite of the Devil Fruit, which was weird but I rolled with it.

My power is... It's interesting, to say the least.
