In first half of the Grand Line, within an uninhabited stretch of sea—
Violent winds surged, tsunamis rolled across the waters, and the Sea Kings—once the supre rulers of the ocean—now cowered uneasily in the depths.
Their massive eyes were filled with unmistakably human-like fear!
"Crack… crack—!"
A crisp shattering sound rang out, like glass breaking apart…
A portion of space above the sea suddenly fractured, jagged cracks spreading outward like a web…
Until, at last, space itself shattered completely. Countless shimring fragnts scattered in all directions, falling across the sea.
Boundless golden radiance burst forth from the broken space.
"Tap… tap… tap…"
Clear footsteps echoed from afar, drawing closer as the golden light grew ever more intense—so dazzling it was impossible to look at directly.
Slowly—
A tall figure stepped out from within the shattered void.
Short golden hair fell loosely, a suit of golden armor clad his body, and within his crimson eyes burned arrogance and disdain.
It was as though nothing in heaven and earth was worthy of being acknowledged by him…
His cold expression resembled that of a god standing high above all things.
And that overwhelming golden brilliance tearing through space—
It emanated directly from the golden armor upon his body!
Stepping out of the shattered space, a fleeting trace of confusion flickered through Kazama Haruto's crimson eyes.
Then, a beam of light enveloped him. Monts later, when he opened his eyes again, he let out a faint sigh.
"Has it… already been four thousand years…"
Four thousand years…
Even four thousand years ago, such a span of ti would have seed unimaginably distant to Kazama Haruto.
Even after experiencing transmigration and obtaining the system—
He had never imagined that a single slumber would cost him four thousand years.
That's right.
Kazama Haruto was not originally from this world.
In his previous life, he had been nothing more than an ordinary person from earth
By a twist of fate, he transmigrated into a world he had been intimately familiar with in his past life—
The world of One Piece!
However…
Quite unfortunately—
The ti he arrived in was far too early. Forget Luffy—even the World Governnt and the Marines were unheard of!
Fortunately, he had been bound to the Strongest Role-Playing System, which at the very start allowed him to draw the template of a being powerful enough to rival gods—
Gilgash!
And the Strongest Role-Playing System—
Was Kazama Haruto's greatest cheat.
It allowed him to draw templates of countless characters from across the myriad worlds, granting him their power.
The higher his role-playing progress and compatibility, the stronger the power he could wield!
With the overwhelming strength of Gilgash—even without being at his peak—it was still enough to carry him as he crushed everything in his path, sweeping across the seas of that era.
He even established the incomparably glorious Uruk Empire!
And just as the Uruk Empire reached its peak, and Kazama Haruto's role-playing progress of Gilgash climbed to 90%—
Because it was the first ti his progress had surpassed 90%, the system t the conditions for an upgrade. The mont Kazama Haruto chose to proceed, his entire being was drawn into the Golden Capital filled with infinite treasures, falling into a deep slumber.
That slumber… lasted four thousand years!
That was why, when he first awakened and stepped out of the Golden Capital, a trace of confusion had surfaced in the depths of his eyes.
Standing upon the empty air, Kazama Haruto spoke in a low voice:
"System… after the upgrade, what has changed?"
A single slumber had cost him four thousand years!
If the system's abilities hadn't improved—or if it had gained nothing new—
Then that would truly have been a massive loss!
Within his mind, a cold, emotionless voice quickly responded:
"Master, after the upgrade, this system can not only draw character templates for role-playing, but can also summon individuals connected to the characters you are currently playing or have previously played."
"At the sa ti, the upper limit of role-playable characters has been greatly increased."
"Oh?"
"Summon characters from other worlds?"
A sharp light flickered in Kazama Haruto's eyes.
It seed the system's upgrade had not disappointed him.
In the past, sothing had always felt lacking in his role-playing. Even after establishing the Uruk Empire in this unfamiliar world, that feeling had persisted.
Now, it seed—
What he lacked was the presence of others from the sa world as the character he was playing!
A role played alone would never be truly complete.
But if he could summon powerful figures from the world of the character he was portraying—
Then…
That would be extrely advantageous for Kazama Haruto!
At the sa ti, it would allow the plan he had always envisioned to finally be set into motion!
And not just that—
The increase in the system's upper limit was equally powerful!
Previously, the system could only draw templates of characters around the level of Gilgash—roughly demigod-tier in strength…
But after this upgrade…
Just how terrifying would the new upper limit be?
At the very least…
It would likely reach the level of true gods!
At this thought, even Kazama Haruto—who had already experienced countless major events—could not suppress the surge of excitent in his heart.
Power!
No matter the world, power was always the most important thing!
Four thousand years ago, Kazama Haruto had relied on Gilgash's strength to dominate the seas.
But now, after four thousand years had passed—
Who knew what the state of the sea had beco?
