#3 - Chapter 3 Opportunity Arrives
“No, I have to go. In the eyes of those Celestial Dragons, my ‘value’ is still very high,” Kuma said seriously.
He understood his identity. With this identity, he must be a 'hot commodity' in the eyes of the Celestial Dragons (killing him would yield a higher score).
If he went as bait, he would surely gain unexpected results.
Seeing the determination in Kuma's eyes, Jin An knew that he couldn't change his mind no matter what.
So he nodded and agreed to Kuma's suggestion, then focused his attention on the system he had just acquired.
A screen appeared before Jin An's eyes, visible only to him.
【Congratulations, Host, for binding the Auxiliary Cultivation System. This system aims to assist the Host in completing tasks to obtain stronger power.】
He glanced at the system list and found that the system also had a character status bar.
It clearly listed his current physical condition.
【Host: Jin An (healthy, but still a newbie)】
【Physique: 5 (Although there are traces of exercise, you are still inferior to even children in this world. Please continue to work hard)】 (Average male in the One Piece world: 20)
【Mental Strength: 25 (Your extensive reading has made your mental strength slightly stronger than the average person)】 (Average male in the One Piece world: 20)
【Swordsmanship: 30 (Your swordsmanship foundation is decent, please keep up the good work)】 (Average male in the One Piece world: 0)
【Armament Haki: 0 Unawakened】
【Observation Haki: 0 Unawakened】
【Conqueror's Haki: 0 Unawakened】
【Final Conclusion: The Host is just an 'ordinary person' with a combat power of only five. Please continue to work hard and don't give up】
"......"
Silence filled Cambridge tonight.
Although Jin An was also aware that his body, directly transmigrated, had a certain gap compared to the natives of this world, the gap was too large.
He sighed, stopped paying attention to these upsetting things, and looked at other areas of the system.
【Task: Replace Bartholomew Kuma as bait.】
【Reward: Permanent +5 to all attributes (including all three types of Haki). Open the Shop】
【To ensure the Host survives the first mission, a newbie gift pack is now issued: Physique +50, Mental Strength +40 (limited to 24 hours), Swordsmanship +50 (limited to 10 hours)】
Jin An's eyes widened slightly.
Well, he originally thought this mission would be full of difficulties, but he didn't expect there to be newbie benefits.
Then, with a thought, he directly used the two experience cards. The two cards instantly turned into light and merged into his body.
After receiving everything, his consciousness returned to reality.
The time the consciousness spent in the system space was negligible in reality. Everyone in front of him didn't notice anything unusual.
As his consciousness returned, the first thing Jin An felt was that the world seemed to have changed.
No, his perception was more acute. Things that he couldn't notice before were now clearly visible.
Even just clenching his fist lightly, he could feel that his current strength was far from what it was before.
"......"
“Hee Haw!!! You two are really great!” Ivankov was surprised that two people would actually volunteer for this kind of thing.
“However, I won’t let you be killed!! We will leave this God Valley together!!!”
Jin An and Kuma smiled at each other and said loudly, “We will definitely survive!!! (We will leave this place together!)”
"......"
“Boom!!!”
Just then, a huge explosion came from the distance, and the ground shook.
Jin An turned to the direction of the explosion, revealing a smile.
“It seems our chance has come!”
......
The sea area outside God Valley.
One familiar pirate ship after another was rapidly approaching.
These pirates had been traveling from the 'New World' for thousands of miles to this West Blue border for two weeks.
Now, the first batch of pirates had arrived.
Along with the sound of gunfire, a loud voice suddenly rang out.
“Marines, feel the fear! Rocks Pirates, follow me!”
This voice was undoubtedly the captain of the Rocks Pirates - Rocks.
With his order, many executives of the Rocks Pirates appeared on the coast, holding their respective weapons, glaring at the flustered Marines.
The pirates, who were infamous in the 'New World', each had their own thoughts, but they all had the same goal.
To make a scene in this place where Celestial Dragons gathered, to spread their names all over the world, and... to obtain the amazing wealth on the island.
Whitebeard Edward Newgate picked up the naginata placed beside him.
“Rocks, don’t use a commanding tone with me.”
Before he could finish speaking, he realized that Rocks was no longer in front of him.
“Does that guy still remember our main purpose for coming here? First, we should confirm…”
Whitebeard followed behind Rocks and rushed into the island.
Behind them, the others were also saying their own things. They joined the Rocks Pirates only because it was profitable.
When it was profitable, they could listen to orders a little, but most of the time they only cared about their own interests and looked at everything for money.
“Why are you all acting like you’re dreaming? I just want to quietly take what I want and leave directly.”
Charlotte Linlin didn't care about anything. She didn't care about anything and directly ignored Rocks' orders.
“It seems Roger is also moving. Only that guy…” Kaido turned his head with a serious expression and said, “Linlin, that kind of thing is not very useful to you, remember to keep an eye out for me.”
“Since we’ve come to the island, then it’s every man for himself.”
Linlin didn't answer directly, waved her hand, and disappeared into the deep forest.
......
The Celestial Dragons, who were still playing games, were disturbed and looked annoyed.
“What are those Marines doing!! They can't even do this little thing well. What if something happens to us!!!”
A Marine rushed to this group of Celestial Dragons in a hurry.
“Report!”
“Pirates are invading from all directions of this island!”
The Celestial Dragons and Marines were in chaos.
The pirates' purpose was unknown, and the things being carried out here were clearly 'top secret'.
“The Roger Pirates and the Rocks Pirates have invaded various locations on this island. The 'God's Knights' are fighting them.”
“Please move to a safe area.”
......
In the bushes near the central area of the island.
His ears were filled with shouts of killing, curses, and pleas for mercy, but Jin An always maintained a high level of concentration.
Because the target of their trip was placed on the square in front of them.
The entire square was covered with dazzling gold and silver treasures, shimmering with moving light. Compared to the area filled with flesh and blood, this place was like paradise.
Six treasure chests were placed in the center of the treasure in turn, indicating their preciousness.
Jin An and the others were only one step away from success, one thought to heaven, one thought to hell.
“Kuma, be prepared. The next moment will determine life and death.”
If they couldn't get that fruit, all that awaited them was death.
Moreover, the pirates' goal was also these treasures. If they didn't hurry, they wouldn't have a chance.
Jin An looked around and arranged in a low voice.
“The situation here is different from what we expected. There are a lot fewer guards. They should have all been transferred to protect those pigs. I will go out first to attract the guards' attention. You guys approach the central chest as quickly as possible.”
Then, before Kuma and the others could react, he took a step and rushed out instantly.
