Chapter 178 - 1

Chapter 1 System ActivationOn the azure sea, an island with several giant windmills stood.At this moment, on the southwest corner of the island.A young man was lying on the beach.The occasional cool touch at his feet made him slowly open his eyes.What greeted his eyes was the clear blue sky.The faint smell of the sea in the air made Mark a little confused.He couldn't help but murmur:"Where am I...?""I remember I wasn't hit by a dump truck and died for performance, was I?"After thinking for a long time, Mark still couldn't figure out what was happening.And the more he thought, the more his head hurt, so he simply gave up.At least for now, he wasn't dead, which was good!Mark propped himself up with his hands and got up from the ground.But at a certain moment, he suddenly froze.He stared blankly at his feet.Then he incredulously touched his face."I... what am I?"What was reflected in the seawater at Mark's feet was not a young man in his twenties who had already experienced much hardship.Instead, it was a boy of about sixteen.Full of vigor and in the prime of his life!It was exactly how he looked when he was sixteen!Just as Mark was still immersed in the fact that he had become younger and couldn't extricate himself.A voice came into his mind."Ding!""Detected that the host is on the plot island Foosha Village, the Plot Island Check-in System has been successfully activated!"???"System?"Mark's already confused mind was even more bewildered now.Why did a System suddenly appear for him?He wasn't dead... was he?Suddenly, Mark seemed to realize something.Windmill Island?He only knew one place called Windmill Island!This couldn't be the place he was thinking of, could it?Thinking of this, a drop of cold sweat involuntarily ran down Mark's forehead.Just then, the System's voice came again."The host has arrived at the plot island Windmill Island, do you want to check in?""Yes!"Mark answered subconsciously."Check-in successful!""Congratulations to the host for obtaining...""Zoan Type • Mythical Zoan Type • Human-Human Fruit • great sage, equal to heaven Form! (No Side Effects Version)""The devil fruit has been stored in the system space, the host can extract it at any time!""Well, no running away!"The moment he saw this information, Mark was already able to confirm that he had indeed arrived in the world he had previously guessed.The Pirate World!To be honest, if he had known he had come to such a place before acquiring the System, he would have been scared to death.This world was not as peaceful as it seemed in the anime.There were vicious pirates and hypocritically righteous Marines here!And those disgusting swine—the Celestial Dragons!Perhaps an unexpected calamity would send him away again at any moment.But now!That was different!The experiences of countless Seniors who Transmigrated with a System made Markcompletely unafraid.He had a System, what was he afraid of?Moreover... Mark's mind stirred, and a golden devil fruit instantly appeared in his hand.Human-Human Fruit • great sage, equal to heavenForm!Mark was very familiar with who the great sage, equal to heaven was.This was a character he had always loved in his previous life."great sage, equal to heaven—Sun Wukong!"Just with this name, there was no need to say anything else.This devil fruit must be a Divine Rank devil fruit!Is Sun God Nika very powerful?Sorry!Even if you Cultivate into a god, you are just one of my hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals!And it was the no side effects version, which meant it wouldn't have a fatal weakness like other devil fruits.Being restrained by Sea Stone!Thinking of this, Mark was a little impatient.He took a big bite directly into the devil fruit in his hand.Sweet and delicious juice burst on Mark's taste buds.Making Mark, who had already prepared himself for a terrible taste, a little stunned."Hmm? Didn't they say this thing tastes worse than shit?""Did the no side effects version also eliminate this bad taste?"After much thought, this seemed to be the only answer.Since that was the case, Mark directly ate it in big bites.If it really tasted worse than shit, he would have only taken one bite.Now that it tasted so good, he definitely had to eat more.After all, he was quite hungry now!...Some time later, Mark sat on the ground, holding his stomach.Don't tell me, this devil fruit doesn't look big, but it's quite filling!Not long after he sat down, Mark felt a surge of energy from deep within his body.Constantly transforming his Physique.This process lasted for a full 10 minutes.When everything settled.Mark felt the power coming from within his body and couldn't help but clench his fists.He felt as if he could smash a mountain at this moment!However, in a flash, Mark showed a wry smile.Although he had become much stronger, his stomach, which had just barely been full, was now hungry again.It seemed he had to find something to eat first.Mark's gaze swept around.Suddenly, he saw a fish that seemed to have a death wish swimming towards him.A grin spread across his lips.Food just delivered itself to his doorstep, didn't it?..."Sizzle, sizzle!"Mark ate the grilled fish while thinking about his next plan.Having this System meant he couldn't stay in one place for too long.Plot islands?If nothing unexpected happened, they should be the islands that appeared in the original anime.In that case, it meant he had to check in at all these islands!He just didn't know what timeline he was in now!Mark thought while opening the System panel, a new function he had just discovered while studying the System.It allowed him to see his overall attributes."Name: Mark""devil fruit: Human-Human Fruit great sage, equal to heaven Form (Elementary)""Ability: Indestructible Body (Elementary)""Armament Haki: Not Awakened""Observation Haki: Not Awakened""Haoshoku: Not Awakened"The panel was extremely concise.It only showed the Pirate World's conventional Three Types of Haki and the development level of the devil fruit.And the Indestructible Body in the ability column was the first ability obtained after eating the devil fruit.Its effect was to transform his Physique into that of the great sage, equal to heaven.And there was no need to say how powerful the Great Sage's Indestructible Body was.This was a top-tier Physique created after eating countless Golden Core and Peaches of Immortality!Top-tier Physiques in Pirate King, like Big Mom's Iron Balloon, were mere younger brothers in front of the Indestructible Body.Easily crushed, alright!After reading this information, Mark had more or less eaten his fill.Then he walked towards the middle of the island.Although he didn't know the way, walking towards the center was definitely correct!His main priority now was to find out what timeline he was in, so he could arrange his next itinerary.And also!He needed to get a boat...
