Will of Fire? Will of the Overlord!

"Dammit, why had I, who possessed the Will of Fire, come to the world of One Piece?!"

A young man in a brown burlap shirt lay beneath a tree, looking helpless.

A few days ago, he had happened to watch some short videos and cursed Boruto a few times. Then the A5 phone in his hand suddenly exploded. His vision went black, and he arrived in this world, taking over this person's body.

This body's original identity had merely been that of an ordinary Foosha Village villager—an orphan named Brando. He had blond hair and was just as handsome as the readers, but he was a commoner whose job was fishing. He was seventeen years old.

A few days earlier, he had accidentally fallen overboard. He choked on a mouthful of water and died, allowing his soul to take over the body.

"Brando, you're such a loser. You can obviously swim, yet you still managed to choke on water."

Suddenly, a foul-mouthed brat appeared and mocked Brando.

"?"

Brando looked startled.

Was this brat talking trash about him?

He immediately turned to look. Who was bold enough to trash-talk someone with the Will of Fire? He wanted to see just how many lives this guy had.

"Luffy?"

With just one glance, Brando recognized who this brat was.

He was a hugely popular character. Even though Brando, as a village nobody, did not pay much attention to him, he had still seen clips of him before.

For some reason, an inexplicable sense of irritation rose within Brando as he looked at Luffy, so he stood up.

"Hmph, you little brat without parents. You've probably never eaten a meal with your parents in your entire life, have you?"

Brando blurted it out without hesitation.

Luffy's expression froze. His previously cheerful face now looked as though he was about to burst into tears at any moment.

"Ding, the Will System is activating."

"You have gained the recognition of the Will of the Overlord!"

"You did not fear the will of the world and verbally disciplined the protagonist, Monkey D. Luffy, with the Will of the Overlord. You have obtained Basic Chakra Mastery, mastery of the Three-Body Technique, and Shuriken Mastery."

Before Luffy could cry, Brando heard that wonderful voice in his head.

It was a system, damn it!

The cheat code for a transmigrator had arrived!

Before Brando could think further, a strange sensation spread through his body. Power—power was constantly surging forth. His brain itched too, as if something were growing inside!

A crazed expression appeared on Brando's face, startling even Luffy, who had been about to cry.

After hesitating for a while, Luffy ran off. He felt that he should probably stay far away from this person in the future.

By the time Brando came back to his senses, Luffy had already vanished. He did not care, though, and instead began testing the power he had gained.

First came the Clone Technique, then the Transformation Technique, followed by the Substitution Technique.

He used them all with remarkable ease, as if he were using skills in a game. As long as he thought of them, he could instantly activate them.

Then Brando picked up a fist-sized stone from the ground, aimed at a tree around fifty meters away, and threw it. It struck the trunk with perfect accuracy.

For some reason, Brando felt that this skill was his true core ability.

"But this Will of the Overlord... why does it sound like the domineering kind of bullying? I have the Will of Fire!"

Brando was puzzled, wondering if there had been some kind of mistake.

But the system seemed mentally challenged and would not respond at all. Brando felt that it would only react when he did something embodying the Will of the Overlord.

"Forget it. With a cheat, at least I'll have the confidence to survive. Otherwise, with the body of an ordinary person in this world, it would probably be difficult even to reach the level of a Marine lieutenant commander."

A life that had once seemed hopeless was suddenly filled with hope again.

Meanwhile, Luffy felt awful. After finding somewhere deserted, he finally could not hold back his tears.

It was the first time Luffy had faced this kind of pressure, and he simply could not take it.

As for Brando, he felt no psychological burden at all over attacking Luffy. Since he possessed the Will of Fire, he had to bully these privileged second-generation brats mercilessly!

"But I'm still too weak. In this world, if I don't obtain a Sage Body as a reward, I feel like I could die at any moment."

"Every one of them is like a monster. They're impossible to kill. Without a body tough enough to take hits, there's no way."

At home, Brando considered who he could target with the Will of the Overlord.

After analyzing it for a while, Brando felt that the stronger the target of his Will of the Overlord was, the better the reward might be.

On the way back, he had casually acted domineering toward some other brats, calling them ugly, but he received no reward at all. Clearly, the Will of the Overlord did not approve of what he had done.

"Right, Luffy hasn't eaten a Devil Fruit yet. Red-Haired Shanks seems to be here too. I remember seeing that early on, this guy got bullied by the Bandit King and didn't even fight back. So maybe I can..."

Brando felt that he had found a good opportunity.

After all, this was the East Blue. Finding a strong person he could safely use the Will of the Overlord on was not easy.

Shanks at this point seemed to be the best choice. The chance of anything going wrong was extremely low, while the reward might be very high.

Using the Will of the Overlord in the Shinobi World could get someone killed, especially in Sunagakure.

"Gaara, the Kazekage's son, killed several more people again today!"

"Hmph, he still dares to kill people? Today, I'm going over there to give him a proper scolding, kick him a few times, and throw things at that monster!"

Never underestimate the Will of the Overlord wielded by a village nobody!

Over the next few days, Brando continued exploring the effects of the Will of the Overlord.

As a result, the people of Foosha Village discovered that Brando seemed to have gone insane after choking on water. He was constantly spouting outrageous nonsense.

Even when he saw Village Chief Woop Slap, he mocked him directly, saying that his hat looked terrible—round and round, as if he were wearing a pile of cow dung on his head.

Woop Slap became so furious that he chased Brando through half the village with his cane, only stopping when he was too out of breath to continue.

"What should we do? This child seems to have gone mad!"

"Could he be possessed by a ghost or god?"

"This is infuriating! Village Chief, let's tie him up and teach him a lesson!"

The villagers supported Woop Slap and spoke indignantly.

Over the past week, Brando had practically been hurling mockery and insults every time he opened his mouth. His mouth was utterly filthy.

Things like, "Auntie, you've gotten fat again," "Uncle, you're not much good at night, are you? You've lost even more hair. Are you about to go bald?" "Those clothes look terrible on you," and "Why is your hair that color?"

But it was mostly verbal bullying; he never laid a hand on anyone. After all, physically bullying the weak was an act of cowardice for the strong. If Brando, who possessed the Will of the Overlord, wanted to physically bully someone, it had to be someone stronger than him.

"I'm throwing this guy out of the village! Someone like him doesn't deserve to exist in Foosha Village!!"

Woop Slap said furiously.

He felt that if this guy were allowed to continue, Foosha Village's friendly and gentle atmosphere would be ruined.

"Isn't that... a little inappropriate?"

The people of Foosha Village were still rather mild-tempered, unlike the people of some other unruly village.

"I'm the village chief!"

Woop Slap roared.

Since the village chief had said so, the others found it difficult to argue further.

Besides, they felt that if Brando lowered his head and admitted his mistake later, the village would forgive him and let him return.

For now, everyone basically believed that Brando had changed somehow after choking on water while fishing. He would surely recover eventually and become a gentle member of Foosha Village again.
