Settsetse! The Pirate Nemesis

"Seltsey! The Pirate's Nemesis!" by He Shou Wu San Qian

The Battle of Marineford was raging, filled with the deafening roar of cannons. A dazzling figure moved through the crowd.

He picked up the enormous Oz and slammed it down from the sky.

Before Whitebeard even joined the battle, he sank half of Marineford to the bottom of the sea—the pirates exclaimed: "I'm absolutely blown away!" (Raising their hands in awe)

The red-haired hunk raised his middle finger: "Fuck you, the party's heating up!!!"

Fighting? Eight hundred meters away, a predator charged forward, followed by a basic attack, then a combo of Conqueror's Might, Hail of Blades, and a burst of damage including Electrocute, Conqueror, and Lethal Tempo, leaving the enemy with almost no health in a second.

Trying to run? Glacier Conqueror will stick to your swift steps, close the distance, Phase Rush will circle you three times, then a powerful Skull Crack will activate the aftershock, followed by an Undying Grip for a Dark Harvest to your groin!

With unlimited growth, one day even a random pee from Sett could produce a comet that could kill the Five Elders.

What? You're asking me about the Rewi Unsealing Manual and the Omnipotent Stone?

With a shrug, isn't that a talent only sissies would possess?

Settsetse! The nemesis of pirates!

The Four Emperors? What kind of bastards are they?

You better remember that guy called Redhead!

There is only one redhead at sea, and that is me, Lord Sett!

If I see you again, I'll rip your hair out!

Let me show you what a black hand is!

1. Sett

Earth, next to an underground internet cafe in a certain underground boxing ring.

Although it was almost his turn, Sett showed no sign of panic whatsoever. Instead, he watched with a cold smile as the top laner opposite him picked Garen.

You picked Garen on the first floor, you're so brave!!

A real man never backs down. Without hesitation, Sett chose Sett—Sett's real name is Sett, a name that perfectly matches the character Sett in the game. Even more coincidentally, Sett himself is an underground boxing fighter. Relying on his youth, strength, and fearlessness, he hasn't lost a single match so far. And before the tournament, Sett's favorite way to relax is to play a couple of ranked games.

Winning is a good omen. Wouldn't it be great to go out for dinner tonight after winning the boxing match in one go?! But what's the point of being in a good mood if you lose? You might as well treat your opponent like a useless teammate or a dog on the other end of the internet and beat them up!

In short, you may make a small profit, but I will definitely not lose money.

Click OK.

It has to be me!

It's common knowledge that illegal internet cafes are often poorly managed. Sure enough, because of the large number of people using the internet, a leak or electrical accident can easily occur if one isn't careful.

"I'm fucking impressed!!"

On a rocky island in the middle of the ocean, Sett rubbed his temples, his face filled with frustration—you can't expect a trash-talking king of underground boxing to remain verbally calm when faced with something that challenges his worldview.

It wasn't just that he had transmigrated; more importantly, Sett's entire appearance had undergone a drastic change. The original Sett was just a short, dark-haired guy, about 1.77 meters tall. Not exactly muscular, but with a lean, muscular build. But after arriving in this world, Lin Chen's body had grown to over 2.35 meters. His iron fists gleamed, and the muscles on his bare chest resembled the heart of a bull. His face was covered in a messy stubble, and he had red hair; slash scars ran from his nose across his entire face.

More importantly, there was the clothing he was wearing. If Sett remembered correctly, before he transmigrated, he was shirtless in a smoky, dark internet cafe warming up for a match. But now, his previously bare upper body was covered by an open jacket, with the back of the neck and shoulders of the jacket densely covered with stiff, bluish-gray bristles—thick and dense, giving the impression of a mink coat from a distance.

The jacket also features two gold wolverine buckles embedded in the seam between the chest and shoulders.

After glancing at the water, Sett was certain that this was the appearance and race that Sett had created for Valoran—a hybrid of human and Vastaya.

The Vastaya are a unique ethnic group in Ionia. Each of them has an animal associated with them. Sett's animal is the wolverine—a creature that fears no battle.

It seems the Ionians have never seen a honey badger.

Although both his strength and endurance had been enhanced to an unimaginable degree, Sett wasn't immediately happy. Instead, he touched the two new animal ears on his head with some disgust—what would happen if Fury saw this?

"Ding, Summoner has successfully logged in. Beginner tutorial now."

"A tutorial?" Sett raised an eyebrow upon hearing this: "Demacia region, ID: ARAM Entertainment Player. I've been playing since Season 3, and you're telling me about a tutorial? Pay me my rune money first!"

The system showed no response to Sett's words, mechanically and numbly saying, "Character panel complete, please select basic runes."

"...Can't we communicate? This is so annoying."

Sett noticed the system's voice was programmed, and he just curled his lip in slight disdain—he had initially thought he might be able to extract some information. Now it seemed that the chance was gone.

Open the character panel;

Name: Sett

Grade 1

Passive skill:

Battlefield Heroism: ① Unyielding Arms: Due to his Vastaya bloodline, Sett's muscle and bone density far surpasses that of ordinary people, and his arms are particularly outstanding. Each attack by switching between his left and right hands greatly increases his attack speed and deals additional strength damage to enemies.

② Heart of a Beast: Because of his Vastaya bloodline, Sett has extremely strong vitality, and the more damage he suffers, the stronger his recovery ability becomes.

Active skills:

①: Subduing the Enemy's Power: Sett craves battle. Once triggered, his movement speed increases by 30% when moving towards an enemy, and his next two attacks deal additional damage based on the enemy's maximum health.

②: Deliberate Blast: Sett possesses an extremely high passion for combat. Under the hidden genetic influence of the Vastayan bloodline, damage Sett receives will be converted into an equal amount of Heroic Spirit. When actively released, this Heroic Spirit will transform into a tangible shockwave, causing massive area-of-effect damage. During this process, the instantaneous burst of Heroic Spirit will also mitigate a significant amount of damage.

③: Skull Crush: Sett's arms possess extraordinary strength; in a burst of power, he can force enemies on either side together with sheer force. If at least one enemy is captured on either side, both will be injured and stunned. (Must be used with both hands clasped together)

④: Breathtaking: Sett will perfectly showcase his fighting skills, even forcefully grabbing enemies and performing a bomb slam. At the landing point of the slam, all enemies within range will suffer additional damage equal to the size and health of the grabbed enemy.

Basic Runes: (Blank)

After taking one look, Sett could swear on his life that this was definitely Sett's skill set in the game... If he had known this, he should have played Aurelion Sol instead.

But now I think it doesn't matter anymore. Compared to playing ball, at least I'm more familiar with my fists!

Basic runes are randomly selected from three options based on level. Sett clicks to draw, and the three choices appear: Unsealed Spellbook, Aftershock, and Hail of Blades.

Need I say more? Sett immediately chose Hail of Blades without hesitation!

Without Summoner Spells, Sett had no idea what the Unsealed Spellbook was for. According to the system description, Aftershock required either Skullbreaker or Amazement to trigger; other spells, even if Sett punched an enemy ten meters away without triggering a skill check, wouldn't trigger.

Without a doubt, this is a terrible skill. When Sett was playing 0-21-0, he used Aftershock, and the only time it triggered throughout the game was when he used the Blast Cone to finish off the opponent…

And Conqueror—haven't you heard of it? Sett with Conqueror, Sett becomes Ip Man! With his passive Tough Hands and his first skill Subduing Intimidation, if the enemy dares to face-check the bushes, Sett will definitely let them know how difficult it is to last-hit minions after losing half his health at the very beginning of the laning phase.

2. Robin

I stretched and looked around. The tiny rocky island was surrounded by the azure sea.

After cracking his neck twice, Ser asked, "Where is the nearest island? How far is it?"

"15 nautical miles to the southeast."

"...Which direction is southeast?"

It's no wonder Sett asked that question. They'd inexplicably appeared on a rocky island, and judging by the sun, it was almost noon. Surrounded by ocean with no landmarks, and Sett not being Bear Grylls or Ed Stafford, it was incredibly difficult for a brute to orient himself in such a situation.

Upon hearing Sett's words, a square map immediately appeared in Sett's mind. It was just like the minimap in the game, the only difference being that this minimap didn't have three lanes... to put it more vividly, the minimap was entirely filled with the jungle and river.

The maximum display range is only about one kilometer, and fifteen nautical miles is approximately twenty-seven kilometers. Fortunately, knowing Sett's current situation, the minimap specifically marks the direction of the nearest island to Sett.

Boarding the ship here is impossible—Having just arrived in this world, Sett is not tired at all. He is full of energy and in high spirits.

He plunged into the sea, and then his hands propelled his body like propellers, propelling him rapidly toward the distance.

Instead of boarding a boat on a rocky island, why not swim and see if you can hitch a ride?

Sett's half-orc body made him feel almost no fatigue; his energy flowed endlessly. In fact, the high-frequency movements even brought a subtle, indescribable sense of comfort.

According to the lore, the Vastaya were initially peaceful like other native Ionians. It wasn't until the Noxians arrived that they discovered the hidden violent desires within their orcish bloodline, which led to the Noxian gladiatorial arenas taking root in Vastaya and eventually being completely dominated by Sett.

Sett was originally a guy who made quick money by fighting in underground boxing matches. If the occasion weren't inappropriate, he would be looking for someone to fight right now to see what his enhanced body was like.

Xihai, 1507 in the Haiyuan calendar.

Drifting at sea, in the lower deck of a slave ship, thirteen-year-old Robin was panting heavily.

Five years ago, the Ohara massacre occurred, and the World Government's Buster Call destroyed Robin's hometown. After that, although Robin managed to escape, for various reasons, her true identity was eventually discovered by the World Government, and she was given a bounty of 80 million Berries and became known as the Devil Child.

Compared to the calm East Sea, the West Sea is undoubtedly teeming with bandits. Right now, they're lucky they haven't discovered their true identities yet, simply considering themselves ordinary slaves—relying on the power of Devil Fruits, hoping that once they reach land, they might have a chance to escape. But until then, they must carefully conceal themselves.

Thinking this, Robin grabbed a blanket from the floor and wrapped it around himself—his childhood experiences had made him mature much faster than his peers. Indeed, apart from Robin, everyone else on the slave ship, not just the children, but even the adults, had faces filled with panic and gloom. However, unlike the children's excited shouts of fear, the adults' despair was often silent.

"Hehehehe." A strange laugh came from above, and a middle-aged man wearing a top hat and sporting a goatee poked his head out. When he looked down at the people at the bottom of the ship, he showed no sense of kinship whatsoever. Or perhaps, to him, these people at the bottom of the ship were indeed no different from the cargo.

"How was it? The goods this time were pretty good, weren't they? It took me a lot of effort to catch these little guys!!"

A gruff voice came from outside. Without a doubt, it was the captain of this slave ship. He was burly, over three meters tall and short. Although he looked intimidating, the pistol tucked into his belt suggested he was a complete novice—what normal pirate handles a gun?

"Not bad... wait a minute? Let me take a closer look."

The man with the goatee nodded in agreement at the slave trader's words. His sharp eyes were like those of a hungry wolf on a hunting expedition.

He took out his monocle, carefully wiped it, and stared at the bottom of the ship's hold for three or four seconds. After a moment, he cleared his throat and said with his goatee, "I'm very satisfied with this shipment... One price, 1.2 million Berries."

"One million two hundred thousand?! You're underestimating me! It's at least five million!"

"No, 1.5 million at most!"

"Four million five hundred thousand!"

"...Two million, that's the most I can ask for."

"Alright, cash on delivery!"

The slave trader seemed quite satisfied with the price. Robin, however, didn't feel much despair or frustration upon hearing that she had been sold again. She simply curled up carefully to avoid being discovered.

Only two million? Who do you think you are...?

Just then, Robin noticed a flash of light beside her. Turning her head, she saw it was a shard of mirror. She hadn't noticed it before because of the darkness on the lower deck, but now, with the light streaming in as the deck door opened, the flash of light from the mirror immediately caught Robin's attention.

Startled, he glanced in the mirror and saw none other than the man with the monocle in one hand and the goatee staring intently at him. Through the reflection, the intense, almost tangible, ecstasy in his eyes was almost palpable!

We've been discovered!!

Robin's heart skipped a beat as she realized the gravity of the situation. Instinctively, she turned her face away, but feeling the gaze behind her, she was certain that if she were taken away, she would face a future of being sealed in an iron cage under constant guard.

We have to find a way to escape!!!
