God-tier Cultivation System

"Ding! Congratulations, you have bound the God-tier Cultivation System!"

"Ding! You have received a Newbie Gift Package!"

"Ding! You have obtained the Kusanagi Sword, Basic Swordsmanship, Three-Stage Slash, Iai Slash lv1, Observation Haki lv1, Armament Haki lv1, and Conqueror's Haki lv1!"

In a storage room roughly twenty square meters in size, Moonlight suddenly sat up.

As he listened to the successive notifications ringing in his mind, shock churned through his heart like raging waves!

"Haki? That's something unique to the Pirate World. Could it be that I transmigrated to the Pirate World? And even bound a God-tier Cultivation System? It gave me a Newbie Gift Package and the divine Kusanagi Sword?"

Looking at the ancient sword in his hand, Moonlight muttered to himself.

His name was Moonlight, and he was a loser.

After graduating from college, he had been unable to find work, so he moved bricks at a construction site. Unexpectedly, the scaffolding supporting a platform collapsed, and countless steel bars and chunks of concrete came crashing down, burying Moonlight beneath them.

He had thought he was dead, but not only had he survived, he had even transmigrated into his favorite Pirate World.

As a loser, he was naturally familiar with the currently popular concepts of transmigration and systems. He simply had not expected such a thing to one day happen to him!

To make sure this was not a dream, Moonlight stood up with the Kusanagi Sword in hand and lightly jabbed at a wooden barrel taller than a person in front of him!

Crack!

The barrel was instantly pierced through, and bright red wine spilled out, flooding the floor in the blink of an eye!

It was clear just how sharp the sword was!

At the same time, a voice sounded in his mind!

"Ding! You swung your sword once and gained 100 × 100 experience points!"

"Ding! Since Basic Swordsmanship and Three-Stage Slash have already reached max level, the experience has automatically been converted into experience required for Iai Slash!"

"Ding! Iai Slash has advanced to lv2!"

"Ding! New skill unlocked: Dragon Ascent Slash!"

As he listened to the notifications, a status panel immediately appeared in his mind!

[Moonlight]

Three-Stage Slash [System-granted, no rank]

Iai Slash lv2 1/100000 [Upgradeable]

Observation Haki lv1 1/10000 [Upgradeable]

Conqueror's Haki lv1 1/10000 [Upgradeable]

"Iai Slash, Three-Stage Slash, the divine Kusanagi Sword... This isn't a dream. It's real!"

Feeling the power surging through his body, as well as the knowledge of Sword Techniques that had appeared in his mind as though he had been born with it, Moonlight muttered.

At the very least, one thing was certain now: he had truly transmigrated and obtained an incredibly awesome system!

With just a simple swing of his sword, several Sword Techniques had leveled up, and he could even obtain new skills!

The higher the level of a Sword Technique, the more terrifying its power became!

At lv1, a Sword Technique could release Sword Aura and sense the heartbeats and life force of those around him.

At lv2, a Sword Technique could cut through hard iron. It was incomparably powerful!

One could only imagine how powerful Sword Techniques at lv3 or lv4 would be!

And that was not even counting Haki!

If Haki wrapped around the blade, its power would be unimaginable!

Boom!

Just then, earth-shaking explosions suddenly rang out from outside. Under Observation Haki, Moonlight could clearly sense the shriek of cannonballs tearing through the air!

"This is bad! Pirates! Pirates!"

"No way! Hasn't the East Blue always been peaceful? How could there be pirates!"

"Damn it, why is this happening? I only came out for a trip. How did I run into something like this!"

At the same time, countless panicked cries rang out all around him.

Pirates had attacked, and the tourists aboard the ship were crying out in alarm.

Thud, thud, thud!

Then dozens of footsteps sounded as the pirates boarded the ship.

Rough, ferocious roars followed!

"Men, get moving! There are so many fat sheep here, enough for the brothers to live it up for a good while!"

"Everyone, stand still! We only want money, nothing else. Of course, if anyone doesn't know what's good for them, we won't be polite either!"

"This is a robbery! Hand over all your valuables, or don't blame us for getting rough!"

"That's right, they're pirates! This really is the Pirate World!"

Hearing this, Moonlight opened the door and walked out.

He had still been somewhat doubtful, but when he saw the boundless sea outside and the highly conspicuous Heart Pirates Flag on the ship docked beside them, wasn't that Alvida's Pirate Ship?

Of course, if he saw Alvida herself, he would be even more certain.

With that in mind, he headed toward the cabin.

The cabin was already in complete chaos. Dozens of ferocious, tattooed brutes carrying large sabers were shouting viciously.

All the tourists were terrified, huddled together and too afraid to move.

When the pirates came over, no one dared resist. They obediently handed over the gold, silver, and valuables on their bodies.

They might lose a great deal of wealth, but that was better than losing their lives!

In the Pirate World, strength was supreme. The lives of the weak could be trampled upon at will; a life was cheaper than grass!

Fortunately, these pirates understood the value of restraint. If they killed everyone, fewer and fewer tourists would come to the East Blue in the future, so they only wanted money.

Moonlight patted himself down. He was completely empty-handed; clearly, he was a pauper without even a single Beli.

If the pirates wanted to rob him, they had picked the wrong target.

However, several pirates walked toward him, holding their sabers across his path as they snarled.

"Money!"

"I just got here too. I don't have a cent on me!"

Moonlight pulled out his empty pockets and said helplessly.

"Damn it, he's actually a pauper!"

"What bad luck, running into someone like this!"

"Get lost!"

Seeing this, the pirates shouted at him in disgust and turned to leave.

They really were only after money.

"Wait, that sword looks good. Since you have no money, use the sword to pay instead!"

Just then, one pirate noticed the Kusanagi Sword in Moonlight's hand. His eyes immediately lit up, and he reached for it.

"You want my sword? That won't do. To a swordsman, his sword is his life!"

Moonlight smiled faintly and flashed aside, causing the pirate to grab empty air!

"Damn brat, you dare resist me? Hand it over obediently, or watch out for your life!"

"You actually dodged Kara's grab. You've got some skill. Since you carry a sword, you must be a swordsman!"

"Hehe, a swordsman without a penny is still a worthless swordsman. You dare resist us? You're courting death! The brothers haven't spilled any blood yet. Since you dare resist, we'll kill a chicken to warn the monkeys!"

Seeing that Moonlight had actually dodged, the pirates immediately sneered.

They all crowded around him, preparing to make their move.

"Young man, you may be a swordsman, but you don't seem very capable. Give them the sword so you don't lose your life!"

"That's right, young man. A wise man doesn't fight when the odds are against him. They're pirates, bloodthirsty pirates who kill without blinking and commit every kind of evil!"

"Young man, don't resist, or you'll lose your life."

Several people nearby saw this and began urging him as well.

A middle-aged man nearby even stood up kindly and took out all his Beli.

"Gentlemen, this is everything I own. He's still young, so please spare his life!"

"Hehe, uncle, you really are kindhearted. But there's no need. These little pirates are no match for me."
