Cao Gui: "System?"

Cao Gui: "System, say something!"

Chapter 1 The Navy with a Righteous Heart

【Justice Naval System (Supporting Every Naval Soldier with a righteous heart)】

[Soldier's Name: Cao Gui (Naval Private First Class)]

[Merit Points: 100; Experience Points: 100/1000]

[Taoist Power Value: 5 (A standard reflecting combat power, not a factor determining combat power)]

[Items included with enlistment: uniform, weapon, monthly salary (10000 Berries), and a 1% discount coupon]

Cao Gui stared at the virtual system panel, his eye twitching.

The system is a good system, that's true, and the handsome soldier with a righteous heart, that's also true.

But... what's with the bright lights and neon signs of Manhattan outside?!

What's with that Stark Tower?!

Shouldn't I be at Marineford or some naval base somewhere in the East, West, North, or South Seas?

How did I end up in the Marvel Universe?!

"System, what's going on!?"

"..."

"system?"

"..."

"System, say something!"

"..."

Silence, as always, silence.

Cao Gui's forehead veins throbbed; he realized that something must have gone wrong with this ridiculous system.

"Then... can I still go to the world of One Piece?"

Cao Gui took a deep breath and asked cautiously, feeling that his symptoms were not severe and that he could still be saved.

"..."

"...I see, there's no hope, is there?" Cao Gui rubbed his temples and sighed helplessly.

He was sleeping soundly at home when, on a whim, he opened his eyes and was surprised to find that a silly system had appeared in his mind.

Even more bizarrely, he also traveled to the Marvel universe.

That was far too hasty.

The system's appearance was hasty, my own time travel was hasty, and the system bringing me to Marvel was even more hasty.

Of course, none of these are the problems. The problem is... is the naval system still useful in Marvel?

Are there pirates in the Marvel universe?

Do you expect me to take a trip to Somalia?

"system?"

As a marine with a strong sense of justice, the host should possess a spirit of exploration.

"A spirit of daring to explore..." Cao Gui was speechless, silently sending the system a thousand words of warm greetings.

However, since things had come to this point, he still focused his attention on the system panel. Cao Gui decided to rely on the system for now, and if that proved to be too useless, he would think of other ways.

Cao Gui calmed himself down, his gaze sharpening as he began to carefully examine his system.

First, the system upgrade method is very clear: gain experience points to improve military rank. For example, he has just joined the army and has 100 experience points, and his military rank is Navy Private Second Class.

The system provides a military salary of 10000 Berries. If your rank is promoted later, your salary and benefits will naturally increase accordingly.

But... how come it's only 10000 Berries?

According to Oda, the Berry is equivalent to the Japanese Yen in reality. Based on the exchange rate, 1000 Berries is roughly equal to 55 RMB, so 10000 Berries is only 550 RMB.

Actually, 500 RMB isn't a low amount; it's roughly the same as the monthly allowance for conscripts in our great nation.

But the problem is... the Navy needs to fight pirates all the time, and they need to go in and out with the enemy at all times.

That's so little money, it's not even enough to buy a coffin!

"Heh, no wonder the Great Pirate Era has arrived." Cao Gui smiled contemptuously: "The corrupt Five Elders, the corrupt World Government."

Thinking of this, Cao Gui took out the weapons stored in the system backpack: a standard naval saber and a semi-automatic flintlock rifle.

The saber has a long blade, about one meter in length, with a sharp edge that gleams coldly. It feels heavy in the hand and is finely crafted.

The flintlock rifle was about a meter long, with a brass beak and a camphor wood stock. Its simple and beautiful design made it a work of art.

As for why flintlock muskets have a semi-automatic firing mode, Cao Gui asked the system, and the system directly told Cao Gui to ask Oda, because that's how it was designed.

Having been rebuffed, Cao Gui turned his attention to merit points. As the name suggests, these are obtained through military merits and can be used to exchange for items in the system.

Upon seeing this, the system thoughtfully opened the exchange item section, which included items such as the Navy Six Styles, famous swords and guns, and Devil Fruits, all of which could be exchanged with merit points.

Cao Gui even saw pacifists, naval warships, Vinsmoke family combat suits, and all sorts of other miscellaneous items.

However, these are all items, and even if you exchange them, you still need to practice and develop them yourself; it's impossible to achieve everything in one step.

Even after exchanging for the String-String Fruit, he still couldn't use Doflamingo's "awakened" abilities.

They exchanged for the Mochi Mochi Fruit, but they still didn't have Katakuri's Observation Haki that allowed him to foresee the future.

There are no shortcuts to gaining power in this world. As a marine, one must undergo rigorous training to acquire the power to uphold justice.

Of course, nothing in this world is absolute; even the navy sometimes needs to ask for help.

Cao Gui swiped his finger to scroll down the system panel and saw a section called "Character Cards".

These are all characters from the One Piece world, from the mountain bandit king Higuma to the big shots Garp and Kaido. As long as you equip the character card, you can gain that character's combat power for a certain period of time.

Seeing this, Cao Gui nodded slightly. It was indeed a good system, but the problem was... how to gain experience points and merit points?

Do I really have to go to Somalia?

But those little pirates aren't enough; we can't just play house and capture and release them seven times, can we?

Does this mean I, a handsome and righteous marine, still have any dignity?

"System, explain this."

As a Marine with a strong sense of justice, the host should possess the courage to explore...

"Banana, you big guava!"

Cao Gui gave the middle finger and turned his attention back to the system interface. As long as you don't give up, there are always more solutions than problems. Let's plan for the future first.

There are three paths to improve one's strength: physical skills, swordsmanship, and Devil Fruits.

Clearly, the first two approaches are not viable. Without a master's guidance, haphazard practice will yield no results. Moreover, swordsmanship and physical skills cannot be effective without long-term training.

That leaves only Devil Fruits.

Cao Gui looked at the Devil Fruit section. These things truly lived up to their reputation as treasures of the sea. Each Devil Fruit was incredibly valuable, even the cheapest one cost nearly a hundred million merit points.

Cao Gui stroked his chin. If he could, which Devil Fruit should he choose?

The rubber fruit is quite good; it's not only cheap, but it also suits Cao's low-key and reserved temperament perfectly.

The Bubble-Bubble Fruit is great too, allowing you to enjoy a unique bubble bath anytime, anywhere. Plus... cough, no, my focus should be on combat power, how did I get onto such strange things?

Cao Gui straightened his expression and continued browsing. "Flame-Flame Fruit, very good. Float-Float Fruit, its combat power is incredibly strong."

Huh? Flower-shaped fruit?

This is great stuff!

Cao Gui's eyes shone brightly; this fruit could make any part of the body grow on any tangible thing.

Imagine if one day, a red-haired female agent from S.H.I.E.L.D., dressed in a tight-fitting suit with the zipper zipped up to her navel, came to his house to search for intelligence.

Then... countless hands reached out from the darkness, seizing, capturing, binding...

Hehehe...

Snapped!

Cao Gui slapped himself across the face, looking ashamed.

Damn it, I'm a Marine with a heart full of justice, how could I have such evil thoughts!?

What's so interesting about those boring movies? They're not good at all; after watching them dozens of times, they become utterly tasteless!

Ring ring~

The phone rang abruptly. Cao Gui looked around and finally found his phone in the pile of tissues on the bedside table.

The caller was someone whose contact name was "Uncle Gaspar".

Cao Gui frowned, thought for a moment, and then pressed the answer button.

“Hey, Uncle Gaspar…”
