1 Being a pirate...

"I see that you like to pirate young man. Must be fun taking advantage of other's blood, tears, and sweat." - an incredibly beautiful woman what I can only describe as otherworldly with fairies like wings and all the right proportions stood before me...scrap that, 'levitated' in front of me.

Even for someone in the 21st century, used to seeing supermodels and all manner of beauties all the time, this 'fairy' seemed to be the perfect embodiment of attractiveness.

Regardless, I was not one to falter by just looking at a woman, and seldom had any type of nervousness for something like this.

It was however unprecedented, I was suspecting that one of my roommates drugged me...

"Seems like you like to enter people's rooms without knocking. What if I was sharpening my stick? Would you have taken a seat to watch?" - I had just broken up with my girlfriend and got into an argument with my best friend, about not bringing his girlfriend over to movie night - truly it was me being an ass and shouldn't have said what I did, regardless I was in a bad mood and wasn't up for any bullshit.

"Hmph...so rude...how dare you, I knew you weren't doing anything that's why..." - She quickly retorted, with a very slight blush noticeable on her cheeks, but before she could finish I cut her off.

"Whatever, why are you in my room fucking room? Can you not bother someone else? Or am I high? - I was quite irritated at this point and this situation reminded me of those Isekai novels every kid and his mum writes about like it's the only genre out there.

"I was getting to that until you interrupted me. Honestly, nowadays youngsters are so aggressive. If it was 30 years ago..." - she once again was trailing off, meanwhile, my patience was coming to an end.

"LISTEN, SAVE IT FOR SOMEONE THAT CARES. You're wasting my time, say what you want or go say hello to David, his house's next door on the left." - like I said my patience was coming to an end.

"HMPH..." - she blew up her cheeks and stopped herself from almost letting out a cry

'Why isn't he affected by my appearance? It's supposed to be the most enticing form a human male would be attracted to. His little brother down there is clearly excited...'

"Where are you looking at?" - well look at that this 'little' fairy is blushing.

"HMPH, I WAS JUST LOOKING AT YOUR KARMA DONT GET AHEAD OF YOURSELF." - she wasn't screaming, but she wasn't far off and after giving me a dirty look she finally got to the point.

"Struck a nerve?" - after giving her a quick smirk for getting a big reaction out of such a beautiful fairy. She continued.

"For the great sin of pirating 999 games, 2489 movies, and 6246 songs. Your bad karma accumulated has exceeded the normal amount.

The ones above decided to send you to live a life of a true pirate and change that world helping as many people as you can live a good life, or eternally crawl in limbo, with no way of escaping the eternal boredom.

You're lucky everyone gets a starter gift pack, otherwise, I'd send you naked and afraid straight in the middle of the ocean."

"..."

"HAH, not so talkative now are we? HEHE..."

"I accept." - unfazed I answered

"Huh?.." - surprised she gives me a second look and rethinks her next words.

"I'm not a bootlicker, so I've no clue what you were expecting. Hurry up with that beginner package so I can be on my way." - at this point I'm tired of talking to this so-called 'fairy', I'm getting more and more bored talking to her.

Beauty seldom means good character in this world. Trust me I'd know."

"Here." - seems she got the message, quickly handing me what looks like a small gift pouch - the type you'd get at a wedding.

"Every starter pack has the equivalent of;

1,000,000 berry

10L of water,

10Kg of bread

2 sets of clothes - winter and summer

And one random power ticket you can use one of the 'Random Power Generator' with that you're all set and you can start your quest. Farewell" - with a professional tone she quickly lists everything I need to know and bids me a short goodbye, before waving her hand for what I assume is a teleportation spell.

"What's your name btw?" - I quickly ask as the teleportation process begins.

"Althea." - with a proud look she looks at me.

"I'll make sure to forget." - with a smirk, I quickly make out before the spell takes effect and in the next moment I disappear from my room.

"HMPH...what a rude guy" - Althea berates

'But was a bit charming, not many can talk like that to me...'

And that's how my adventure in One Piece started. I still have mixed feelings about it.

I mean for one I wouldn't be freezing my ass off right now if I'd said no...
