Title: Meeting...
…
Negan looked at Luffy and smirked. “Young man~ do you have any money on you?”
“Yeah,” Luffy answered honestly, unbothered by what the man was talking to just did. “But I am not going to get you a free drink. Makino always said to not give drunkards anything.”
“Hey now, that hurts my feelings. I ain’t asking you to give it for free.” Negan reasoned, the smirk on his f...

Title: Suspicious Movements...
…
A month passed since Arianne had joined, meaning that soon some people from Dorne would be coming here. I already knew the barber and the butcher in Ogre Street were their spies.
It felt so good having so much control. Though this didn't bring me the closure it once did, dying at the hands of my kid was more than enough to wake me up. There were probably spies within this very castle t...

Title: Jaya...
…
-Max POV-
After the whole thing with Reiju and Raynare was over I went on top of one of the snowy mountains and started meditating. Due to the Rumble Ball, I have been able to access many new forms, though they aren’t like Choppers at all. But having the help of a Rumble Ball every fight wasn’t something I fancied, being able to access these forms by myself would be better.
Chopper had been ab...

Title: Scenario...
…
-Arianne (III)-
The two old women walked towards Arianne slowly. "Don't make any noise girl or we will kill you!"
The red-eyed granny pulled out a dagger and licked it. "Come here now little girl~"
Arianne took a breath and was ready to scream. After all, when your enemy said to not make a noise, you should do the opposite of it.
"What's going on here?!" A gro...

Title: Discussion and Conviction...
…
*sigh* “There is no need to sugarcoat things,” said Reiju. “We both know you aren’t worried about my feelings.”
“As an authority on myself, I would disagree with that statement. I actually do care what you think about me and what your feelings might be about any situation.” Max smirked. “After all, I plan to make you my subordinate, and it’s very important t...

Title: Meeting of the Strong (2)
…
There were almost thirty people at the table, and some seemed more important than most others sitting. Though each of them was someone that could change the world if they wanted to.
But who was truly on the higher hierarchy? That was shown by how they sat and how much they regarded Alex's rules.
The next to speak was the Heavenly Demon, his dark eyes shone with ambition...
Chapter 58
Title: Duck and Ducklings…
…
Hearing his compliments made me raise a brow. This body had no accomplishments to speak of, most people still knew me only because I was Arthur's son.
So Will was obviously being a kissass, trying to get in my good graces. Oh he sure as hell doesn't seem to like me, I can see it in his eyes and body language. But he was trying to be careful and mindful around me.
Finally being ...

Title: The Winner Takes All...
…
-Max POV-
Ichiji gathered red flame-like energy in his hand and shot it at me, but I had already predicted his moves. Knowing his power, future special moves, and having Observation haki made me able to predict most of my opponent’s attacks like reading a book. Though I didn’t have future sight with my Observation, in combination with my knowledge something along those lines as possible. ...

Within the sky above the Soul Sect Alex sat down on a floating chair. He was playing around and doing summer assaults.
"Can you stop that?" Camilla's voice interrupted his joy ride. She appeared there floating on the air, having come through Alex's barriers like they were nothing.
"Wanna join me?" He asked her while tapping his lap. "Also you didn't call me a...

Title: The War...
…
The small war between the kingdoms developed even more once Germa 66 got involved and supported the newly dubbed Mad King, Hon.
Once Germa 66 got involved, the Lulusia Kingdom lost its hope and the people were terrified of a foreign power getting involved in a civil affair. Because while there were many Kingdoms alongside the seas, not many of them shared an island. A lot of people even had family mem...

Title: A Tragedy for the Weak...

Hon was a young man of twenty years old, he was good looking, tall and good with a sword. None of the guards could beat him in a fight. Plus he was a prince and the son of King Uras to boot. So he had won the dice roll of life, even if he was incompetent, his life was guaranteed to be one of wealth and luxury.
Today was supposed to be a good day for him, his father had even hosted a lavis...

Days passed as the situation on the Mortal World kept getting worse and worse, no one under Rank 3 in power could survive outside of the wall. That's what was being said inside the Soul Sect, the 1st underground level, also known as Level D was the place where the Market District was and where most of the normal people lived.
It was the floor closest to the ground, so the farmers could get a...

Title: Setting Off...

Luffy and Ray stood opposite to each other, snow surrounded them. Each was in their fighting positions while Max, Kureha, Chopper, and the Strawhats were observing the fight from one of the mountains.
Also, Max learned one other thing, unlike in canon, for some reason the Starwhats didn’t have their permenant Log Pose that leads to Alabasta. So now Luffy’s fight had become even more importan...

Title: Taking Responsibility...

Two days after the dark clouds started appearing, black rain fell all over the human continent, two days after that all of the vegetation that had been touched by the rain had been killed off and turned corrupted. Normal trees grew a face on their trunks and attacked with their vines. The grass turned poisonous, even the ground itself became a dangerous place as it emitted a kind of poison that turned peop...

Title: Good Deeds...

The date went well and Nami unexpectedly enjoyed herself, Sanji had to be held back from going and fighting Max. The other Strawhats observed the date with different degrees of interest, Luffy and Zoro couldn’t care less about it and one of them still didn’t know what a date even was.
As Max went into his room he heard a knock on the door and Raynare came in. She had a sullen look, she had noti...

Title: Alex's Countermeasures…
…
The Mana around Alex morphed and ejected itself into small balls and shot off.
Mana Bolts shot out and into hundreds of directions. Each of them would create a barrier around human settlements nearby to stop the spread of corruption for a time.
Alex doubted that the Wayne Kingdom was prepared to handle something of this caliber. So the cities would crumble very soon, villag...

"Do you even know who this Boss-Man that you keep calling out is?" Asked the giant mermaid, with a frown on her brows.
He shook his head. "I have no idea, but I must find him!"
Shyarly sighed, knowing that no matter what she said, changing John's mind would be useless. She could see a resolve appear in his eyes, something that didn't belong in the eyes of a lost man without any mem...
Chapter 78
Title: A Despairing War…
…
The first battle was an overwhelming defeat for the humans. Even the higher-ups in the Holy Kingdom who had foreseen the descent of a calamity in the Beast Forests. Though none of them could exactly see what it was, many of the Gods were able to guess that it must be the Beast Emperor.
Only that monster had reached a power at which he was able to negate future sight or other similar techniques. Eve...
Chapter 45
Title: Normal Dinner…
…
Max and Ray were at a dinner table with the Strawhats, even a bandaged Zoro and Nami were there too. The latter had been healed from the disease, all due to the two Royal Doctors who sat at Max's left side.
"Vivi, can you tell me what Crocodile was planning? I have a general idea, but not a lot of the inner workings." Said Max, smiling gently at the young girl.
For a split second, even Vivi was...

Title: 1st Battle...

Alex was in his deep underground lab as he looked through a magic crystal and displayed data of what was happening in the rest of the world. There was news from the Elf Forest to the borders of the Beast territory.
“Hmmm~ so four years earlier. The Beast Emperor has awoken.” Alex wasn’t surprised by this since it was something he had prepared for. Yet that didn’t mean that it wasn’t a dangerous situa...

Title: Forgotten Memories…
…
-Max POV-
Seeing Raynare pointing a scalpel at Nami’s throat while the other Strawhats were standing around with fear in their eyes, I could guess what was going on here. Also, Vivi was here too, so that’s neat. Though coming in with a bloody Zoro who seemed half-dead in my arms seemed like a bad first impression.
“Hey~ there, nice to meet you guys.” I smiled at them. “I am Max...

Title: Soul Sect...
…
In the Wayne Kingdom, the Sword Mountain, which was the place that had become quite popular lately. Normally a Sect or any other organization would have a fee to join, some could allow you to join but you had to be already strong or have some great family background.
Still, though, the Soul Sect who was in Sword Mountain would accept anyone talented. Even farm boys who were over thirty but had some tale...

While Ray and the others were fighting their own battles and threatening each other. Zoro, who had gotten lost on the way to the hospital, had reached a snowy and cold area close to an uninhabited part of the island with a small lake in the middle.
But he wasn't alone, as Ace was there with his usual clothing and covered in bandages. Max too was wearing only swimming trunks, they were both meditating...
Chapter 75
Title: Return of the Past...
…
A bracelet, a ring, a bead, or even something else. An item possessed by some old grandpa who used to be some big shot. This was a very common troupe within some stories in Alex's last life. As soon as Wudong seemed to start talking to himself, he had already exposed his secret to Alex.
Wudong looked on in fear, not knowing what to do. Alex's face on the other hand lacked any emotion that expre...

Title: Kind by Nature?
…
As the Strawhats approached the Drum Kingdom, they were surprised by how many ships were around the waters. From pirates, Bounty Hunters, Marines, and other sketchy people. But all of them were nervous as they got closer to the island.
Zoro observed this and his eyes narrowed. “These men are all fearful of something.”
“Well, these kinds of people aren’t always the bravest kinds o...

Title: Collision...
…
-Max POV-
I looked at Ace as he was chained and brought in front of me while I sat down on my throne.
As the 2nd Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, Ace cut quite the sorry figure right now as he was covered in injuries that would take a while to heal. Thankfully both Chopper and Kureha were one of, if not the best doctors this world had at the time. After all, Kureha had th...

In front of the Soul Sect Gates, a young man with long dark hair and eyes looked at the majestic entrance. The giant red gates radiated bloodlust like they were made by the blood of thousands of sacrificed people.
A white-haired maid was standing in front of the entrance. "Please wait for an undetermined amount of time. Master Alex will come and meet you."
The young m...

Kaku wasn't backing up from his threats, even knowing that the man in front of him was the 2nd Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Flames appeared over Ace's shoulder where Kaku had tightened his grip, this caused the CP9 agent to hurriedly take his hand off Ace's shoulder.
"You shouldn't try and put your hand on fire. That's common knowledge." Said Ace mockingly.&nb...

Title: Changing Myself?
…
Wait… if I decided to change my past decisions that I regretted. If I hadn't created some distance with my sister, then she wouldn't have committed suicide. That was the formula that would have given me happiness in this scenario.
Hell, this whole thing could have been avoided if we had seemed comfortable with each other. But do I want to change this? Do I want to change the past? The answer was obvio...
