The Scourge of Pirates Author: Purple Blue Pig
In the era of great pirates, heroes rise together.
The strong can do whatever they want.
The weak have no choice.
Maud was convinced of this, so he shot his way to the top with his sword left and right.
Chapter 1 Hunter's Notes
"I'm alive?"
Maud opened her eyes, straightened up suddenly, and was shocked to find that she was lying on a simple wooden bed.
Before he had time to check his surroundings, his head suddenly started to tingle.
Some pictures full of fine marks are spinning rapidly in my mind like a revolving lantern.
unfamiliar.
clear.
Blurry.
Many memory scenes were mixed together, which seemed to be the cause of the tingling in his head.
"I have obviously been..."
Amid the stinging pain, Maud's eyes showed a blank expression.
He clearly remembered that during the incident in the Hunter Association Hall, he was unfortunately affected by the power of the [wishing machine] that beat the enemy Hakka.
Including him, even the protagonists of the Hunter World and many powerful people in the Hunter Association were not spared.
In the face of that unreasonable power that seemed to be able to break the dimensional wall, he could be shot even while lying down even though he did nothing.
Almost in an instant, without even a chance to resist, the body was twisted into a hemp rope.
The change happened quickly and suddenly, but the intense pain remained, forming a shadow of death that enveloped Maud's thoughts.
It seemed that for a while, I could still vaguely feel the tearing pain coming from my skin.
After a long time, the negative feelings brought about by the shadow of death slowly disappeared.
Still alive.
that's enough.
It was also at this time that Maude had time to check the surrounding environment.
This is a wooden room with less than ten square meters of space, and there is a faint musty smell in the air.
There are cracks visible to the naked eye on the wooden walls and even the floor.
The furnishings in the room were extremely monotonous. Apart from the single bed where Maud was lying on, the furniture in the room only had a set of wooden tables and chairs without any ornaments, and a mirror hanging on the wall.
A low-power yellow incandescent lamp hangs from the ceiling, providing a limited source of light to the room.
Other than that, there was nothing else in the room, not even a window.
His gaze slowly passed over the dusty tables and chairs, and finally settled on the mirror next to it that was covered with a thin layer of dust.
Through the image reflected in the mirror, Maude saw a strange black-haired boy.
The boy in the mirror is about fifteen or sixteen years old. His facial features are not handsome, but he is delicate and pleasing to the eye.
The young man's forehead was wrapped with blood-stained bandages. His face was as pale as a disease, and he looked extremely weak.
Maude stared blankly at "herself" in the mirror, and the unfamiliar memories in her mind gradually became clear.
Under the brief baptism of these strange memories, Maud endured the stinging sensation, and the uncertainty in her eyes became more and more obvious.
"So that's it..."
He traveled through time again.
Moreover, this time it is not wearing clothes, but wearing souls.
So, he survived in this way.
Slowly exhaling, Maud was in no hurry to get out of bed to further understand where she was.
Instead, he closed his eyes and slowly accepted the remaining memories of this body, trying to extract useful information from them.
After a long time, Maude opened her eyes, and beads of sweat quietly appeared on her pale face.
"Slave ships and pirate ships..."
Gently scratching the sweat on her cheeks with her index finger, Maude lowered her head and murmured to herself.
He figured out the origin of this body.
His predecessor was a merchant, but he was unfortunately robbed by pirates while transporting goods.
Except for young boys like the predecessor, all the adults on the merchant ship were slaughtered by the pirates, including the predecessor's parents.
After that, the predecessor was sold to a slave ship and locked with a group of younger people in a room with a floor filled with hay.
A few days later, the slave ship was suddenly attacked, and a cannonball blasted open the room where the predecessor was held.
My recent memory ends here.
After that...
Maude touched the bandage on her forehead. The wound didn't hurt much.
He had no memory of how he came to this room.
But being able to escape in this way, Maud was not only happy but also happy.
"Pirates, pirates... Could it be the world of One Piece?"
Maud thought.
He was a little unsure.
But the only thing that's certain right now is that we have to start over.
"It would be great if the ability is still there."
Maude thought silently.
When the idea arose, without warning, a thin black notebook appeared out of thin air in his hand.
On the cover of the black notebook, two large Chinese characters—Hunter—are outlined in silver patterns.
Under the word [Hunter], there are four blank parallel silver lines, and an inkless quill is pinned to the spine of the notebook.
Looking at the black notebook and quill that appeared, Maude's eyes widened.
Although there is no telepathy, the ability is activated.
and…
Maud looked at the empty space on the parallel silver lines.
There should have been four words reflecting his [needs] on the silver line, but now they have been cleared.
Maud opened her notebook.
What came into view was still blank.
rustle-
Turn to the second page, the third page...
Still blank!
The original pages recorded the results of four years of low-key [hunting] in the hunter world, but now they are all gone.
"Reset? No wonder I can't feel any 'gain'."
Although the hunting results were cleared due to the reset, the ability was still there, which was enough to make Mod happy.
Hunter's Notes is a growth-oriented ability developed by Mod that can maximize the conversion of intelligence into strength in order to maximize the intelligence advantages of time travelers when he was in the full-time hunter world.
To activate the ability, you must complete five steps, which are:
Set hunting needs → Find hunting targets → Prepare for hunting → Complete hunting actions → Harvest hunting results.
The first step is to enter four different needs based on one's own needs on the silver line. The four needs that Maude recorded at the beginning were: mindfulness skills, heart-dropping fist listening, potential energy, and apparent energy.
But in the world of One Piece, these demands are obviously unfeasible.
However, some needs are common.
For example, physical skills, sword skills, physical strength, devil fruit ability experience, and domineering experience...
After entering the [Requirements], just write the name of the target on the note page and generate the appearance of the target in your mind to complete the second step of finding the hunting target.
The third step of hunting preparation is to record the correct ability information of the hunting target in all aspects.
As long as the information recorded is more detailed, you can harvest richer results after hunting down the target with your own hands.
The ability is still there, and even if you have to start over again, you can still grow at the fastest speed.
Maud was excited, but quickly calmed down.
He realized a problem.
Although the hunter's notes were still there, he was not sure whether they were applicable to the current world.
If it doesn't apply, it's a waste of joy.
Slowly closing the hunter's note, Mod said to himself: "It's always a good start, but now we still have to figure out the current situation as soon as possible."
As soon as he finished speaking, a gunshot suddenly sounded outside.
Maud's eyes narrowed, and she rolled out of bed like a reflex, looking warily at the closed door.
Then, the gunfire became more intensive, like the sound of fireworks frequently blooming in the distance, some distance away.
Hearing that the source of the gunfire was not inside the house, but somewhere outside the house, Maud did not relax her vigilance and subconsciously clutched the hunter's notebook.
With his current body, if he encounters an emergency, he will just be a piece of fish on someone else's chopping board, ready to be slaughtered by others.
The gunfire outside lasted for five minutes before gradually dying down, and Maude stared at the door for more than five minutes.
The gunfire just now gave him an initial taste of the chaos in this world.
Holding the hunter's note tightly, it couldn't bring any sense of security.
Because, the current hunter's notes can be said to be in name only. Only by successfully completing a hunt can you get real benefits.
Tom-tom—
Not long after the gunfire subsided, Maude heard footsteps coming from far and near outside the door. Her pupils shrank slightly and she removed the hunter's note.
Then, he stood up quickly, stepped lightly, and leaned against the wall to the right of the door.
Without knowing the situation, compared to squatting next to the empty wooden bed, it would be more advantageous to be on the side of the door.
Soon, footsteps came closer.
Maude turned her head and stared to the right, waiting with bated breath.
Crunch—
The wooden door was pushed open, making a harsh and unpleasant sound.
However, no one entered the room. Instead, a dark muzzle was poked out.
And the muzzle of the gun was facing Maud at a strange angle.
Suddenly, Maud's heart skipped a beat.
With his current body, he would be finished with one shot.

If it were before Soul Penetration, Mod would be able to withstand bullets easily.
but now…
