White, as far as the eye could see, was all white.
White snowflakes drifted from the sky, and the pine trees were completely covered in snow.
In the howling cold wind, two prisoners, shivering in black and white striped prison uniforms, stared intently at a small snowdrift not far away.
"B-big brother, that guy hasn't moved all day. He... he must have frozen to death, right?" a burly man with a face full of scars and a height of 3 meters asked, trembling.
"N-not necessarily. That guy's a freak. For the past half month, he's been walking around in just a single layer of clothing, like he's completely immune to the cold. Let's wait a bit longer!" said the shorter man in front of the burly one.
"H-how much longer do we have to wait? If we w-wait any longer, we'll freeze to death."
"We'll die if we go up there now. D-didn't you see those Military Wolves guarding the snowdrift?"
The boy in the snowdrift heard the conversation between the two, but he had no intention of getting up to prove he was still alive.
The boy's name was Mosen, and he was currently in a state of deep confusion.
In Mosen's memory, he should have been eating Hot Pot with his friends right now.
Halfway through the Hot Pot, Mosen felt a little hot and said to his friends, "It's so hot! I wish I could have a big block of ice to cool down right now."
The next second, an explosion sounded, Mosen's vision went black, and then he inexplicably found himself in this place.
Mosen looked around and realized he was in a world of ice and snow.
Everywhere he looked was covered in ice and snow, and his body had shrunk.
The Mosen of the past was tall and straight. Because he enjoyed playing basketball and working out, his exercise intensity was very high, and his body was extremely strong. When he clenched his fist and puffed out his biceps, they could almost burst his clothes.
The current body looked about 14 or 15 years old. It was quite tall, reaching 1.8 meters, but its physical condition was average. There was hardly any muscle on its body, and the person was gaunt, clearly malnourished.
As a normal young man, Mosen also enjoyed browsing the internet and was no stranger to the concept of transmigration, even fantasizing about it.
But when Mosen actually encountered transmigration, he couldn't accept it for a while.
After transmigrating, Mosen was completely dazed. The two sets of memories in his mind clashed, giving him a splitting headache and making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
Helpless, Mosen simply sat down on the spot and slowly began to process the two sets of memories in his mind.
He sat there for a whole day.
After finally organizing the memories in his mind, Mosen became even more confused. Because, combining the memories in his head, Mosen confirmed one thing: he wasn't transmigrating, but reincarnating. And he had reincarnated into the world of One Piece. This place was the legendary Impel Down 5th Layer, Extreme Cold Hell. He had only just awakened his memories from his past life.
Mosen's name in this world was Carlos Mosen. He was 15 years old and was born on a chaotic island of Sphinx in the Grand Line.
Mosen, along with his parents, fled that chaotic island when he was 2 years old and came to the relatively peaceful Sabaody Archipelago, near Marine Headquarters.
However, when Mosen was 9 years old, more than 6 years ago, Mosen's parents ran afoul of Celestial Dragons and were killed by their bodyguards.
At the time, the Celestial Dragons even wanted to capture Mosen directly and make him a Slave to atone for his parents' disrespect.
Fortunately, Mosen was rescued by Monkey D. Dragon, who happened to be passing by, and thus escaped death.
Monkey D. Dragon took Mosen to Water 7 and handed him over to a Navy Vice Admiral at the branch, then turned and left.
Thus, Mosen naturally became a Marine.
For the next 5 years, Mosen continuously trained himself. His talent was quite good, and with Dragon's connection, he gained the appreciation of this branch Vice Admiral, who specially taught him the Six Powers.
According to the branch Vice Admiral, not everyone in the Navy knew the Six Powers. Some officers knew them, but most didn't know all of them. It seemed that only the legendary CP Organization and the disciples of Marine Headquarters Admiral Zephyr could learn the complete Six Powers.
This Vice Admiral was one of Zephyr's disciples.
After mastering the Six Powers, Mosen slowly figured out and mastered Life Return.
It's worth mentioning that after learning Life Return, Mosen became particularly fond of Tekkai.
Because with the enhancement of Life Return, Tekkai could be said to be the most comprehensive skill among the Six Powers. Not only was it balanced in offense and defense, but if cultivated to a certain level, one could also comprehend Armament Haki.
Mosen's outstanding talent greatly impressed the Vice Admiral, so he recommended him to Marine Headquarters, hoping he would have a better future, ideally becoming Zephyr's disciple.
However, what the Vice Admiral didn't expect was that Mosen did not become Zephyr's disciple. Instead, due to his excellent physical condition and mastery of Life Return, he was selected to participate in Vegapunk's Lineage Factor experiment.
When Mosen learned from high-ranking Navy officials that the experiment might grant him the power of a Devil Fruit, he unhesitatingly agreed to the experiment.
Even though the Navy told him there was a high probability of death if the experiment failed, Mosen did not hesitate at all. At that time, all he wanted was to become stronger so he could avenge his parents.
A total of 50 people participated in this Lineage Factor experiment, which involved Lineage Factor modification.
Vegapunk divided the 50 people into 7 groups, with 7 people per group. The extra person was assigned to the 7th group. Each group received one Lineage Factor ability.
The experiment was simple in principle. Vegapunk first performed mechanized modification on the hearts of all the test subjects and injected Lineage Factors into them. Then, it was up to the test subjects to see if they could adapt to the Lineage Factors.
There were a total of 7 abilities among these Lineage Factors: Invisibility, Lightning, Giant Strength, Flame, Ice, Flash, and Magma.
The Lineage Factors for Invisibility, Lightning, Giant Strength, and Flame were provided by Vegapunk's former colleague, Vinsmoke Judge. MADS members had researched them.
Queen, one of the original Beast Pirates' Executives and also a MADS member, had modified himself and successfully mastered the abilities of these four Lineage Factors.
As for Ice, Flash, and Magma, Vegapunk requested the Lineage Factors from the Navy. Their sources were naturally the future Navy Admirals Aokiji, Kizaru, and Akainu.
When undergoing the Lineage Factor modification, Mosen was in the fifth group and received the modification for the Frozen Lineage Factor.
After activating the Lineage Factor in his Mechanized Heart, only 1 minute passed before all 6 people, except Mosen, were frozen into ice sculptures. Mosen desperately used Life Return to make his body adapt to this Lineage Factor.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard Mosen tried, his body could not adapt to the Lineage Factor modification. He barely managed to save his life but did not gain the Ice ability.
Mosen's body also suffered significant damage and required a long period of recovery. The only benefit he gained was probably not being afraid of the cold.
Apart from Mosen, in the other 6 experimental groups, everyone in the invisibility group vanished from this world, everyone in the Lightning group turned into charcoal, the bodies in the Giant Strength group kept expanding before exploding, the Flame group experienced similar results to the Lightning group, and the Magma group was completely melted by the extreme heat.
Only the Flash group, all 7 individuals, survived. However, just like Mosen, they did not gain any special abilities.
This experiment was considered a failure.
Vegapunk returned the 8 survivors to Navy Headquarters. The Navy was busy executing Pirate King Roger at the time, so these 8 individuals were brought to Loguetown together.
Here, Mosen once again encountered his savior, Monkey D. Dragon.
At this moment, Dragon had personally witnessed Roger's execution. After seeing Roger use his own life to usher in a new era, Dragon's conviction finally solidified. He was determined to overthrow the Celestial Dragons and bring light to this world.
