One Piece: The Power System

Chapter 17 - Ace's Departure!

"Please let my fortune be good for this token roll!" Rein hoped and prayed that the would get something good. His last gamble was something so stupid that he almost grinded his teeth into dust.

"Alright, let's do the Bronze Token first, let open three in one go!" Rein inserted three bronze tokens into the slot machine in one go.

"Here we go!" Rein pulled the lever three times and spent the tokens. The wheel slowed down and landed on weapons. "Oh, which weapon will it be? I hope it's a better sword or maybe an axe, hehe!"

[Congratulations Rein, you've won: Barrel Pistol (Mid Grade)

"..." Rein stared at the terrible Rng, he was too mad to talk but this is what he should have expected from a bronze token, you'd be fortunate to get anything useful. He was looking at his new pistol inside the 3D image, the next title showed up for his second token.

Devil Fruit!

"Please, something good!"

[Congratulations Rein, you've won: Dog-Dog Fruit, Model: Fox

"Hmm, no bad actually but not something really useful." Rein sighed. Before the next title popped up, he just inserted the last two bronze coins to make things faster. The slot machine rolled and landed on something Rein didn't expect.

Specialist Card!

"Oh my gosh, please, something good this time!" The specialist card had an extremely low percentage of being chosen, so he was pretty excited about it. If it was a gold token then he would have a greater chance.

[Congratulations Rein, you've won: Sword Creation Card!

"Perfect, this is a good one!" Rein smiled "This makes me feel much better after so many terrible items." The slot machine rolled again and landed on Devil Fruit again!

[Congratulations Rein, you've won: Bird-Bird Fruit, Model: Parrot

Rein only smiled bitterly and awaited the next roll!

Rare Tools!

[Congratulations Rein, you've won: Seastone Handcuffs

"Hmm, this isn't all that bad either, I can use these in the future on some people." If he were to encounter a devil fruit user, then these would come in handy. Seastone handcuffs were hard to make for the marines and they were the only ones who had access to so much of it.

"Well, that ends the terrible rng tokens, let's move up a tier shall we!" Rein eyed the silver token with greed, these would surely give him something better. Rein didn't waste a moment and put both of them in at the same time.

The slot machine with a silver bright light, unlike the bronze light Rein was so used to seeing. Rein watched the machine with anticipation in hope of something good. The wheel was finally starting to slow down.

Weapons

[Congratulations Rein, you've won: Pink Lotus Katana! (Advance Grade)

The weapon had a pink handle with blossoming flowers on it. This weapon looked like a samurai sword and even came with its own sheath. The handle matched the sheath which emphasized the beauty of the blade.

"Wow, this weapon looks out of this world but I'm a dude. What would I look like carrying around something like this?" Rein wasn't sure how high Advanced-grade was but it seemed strong to him.

The other token was also spinning at this time and landed on Devil Fruits!

[Congratulations Rein, you've won: Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Model: Velociraptor (Ancient Zoan)

[Congratulations Rein, you've won: Water of Life (x2)

"Wow, I never thought I would see an Ancient Zoan type." Rein was a bit amazed. The model was the Velociraptor, it was one of the smartest of the dinosaurs and one of the most dangerous at that. This water of life was self-explanatory to Rein but he was happy that he got two items out of one of his silver tokens.

Before rolling the gold token, Rein decided to sell the garbage he didn't want.

He already had 732,950 System Points.

"Time to sell these trashy fruits!"

Bird-Bird Fruit, Model: Duck (Zoan)-35,000 System Point!

Bird-Bird Fruit, Model: Parrot (Zoan)-30,000 System Point!

Dog-Dog Fruit, Model: Fox-120,000 System Point!

Bug-Bug Fruit, Model: Preying Mantis-140,000 System Point!

Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Model: Velociraptor (Ancient Zoan) 280,000 System Point!

Barrel Pistol (Mid Grade) 10,000 System Point!

All were sold at a decent price to the system, the bird types were quite cheap and trash. They sold for cheap as Rein had expected, he now had a total of 1,347,950 System Points!

"Now we're making progress, haha!" Rein laughed and without hesitation, he inserted his golden token into the slot machine! The bright golden light was blinding as the wheel spun around swiftly.

Specialist Card!

Specialist Card!

Devil Fruit

Rein gasped deeply as his eye grew wide!

[Congratulations Rein, you've won: Synthesis Card

[Congratulations Rein, you've won: 50% Discount Card

[Congratulations Rein, you've won: Hydrogen-Hydrogen Fruit (Logia)

Rein literally almost fainted from happiness seeing the items coming from this gold token. The gold token was the highest token, so it was extremely rare to get. "Oh my gosh, this is too good, let me check this Devil fruit out!" The Devil Fruit was blue and white, it looked just like the Kage-Kage fruit but White and blue, the fruit itself was white.

Author Note: onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/Kage_Kage_no_Mi

Rein looked at the tutorial and was instantly excited!

It was simple, just like Charlotte Oven's Devil Fruit had a superior which was the Flare-Flare Fruit while the Flare-Flare Fruit had a superior as well, the Magma Fruit! This Devil Fruit was the superior of the chilly-chilly Fruit which was Aokiji Devil Fruit!

"My crew is going to wreak kids all up and down the New World!" Rein grinned just thinking about it, Luffy had about nine people in his crew. Rein wanted about nine or ten in his, but he would start off with five at first. Numbers meant power in this world, this determined an emperor as well. It was about the force they had.

What really got Rein's attention was the 50% off card. He could use that to buy his Balrog fruit for half the price. The fruit cost 3 million solid but with the discount, it would cost 1.5 million System Points.

"Just short of a bit, how sad. Maybe I should sell the Paper Fruit but it is a Logia." Anything that was a Logia was worth keeping instead of selling, so he didn't want to give sell it to the system just like that. Rein looked at his storage for any items that he deemed useless and would sell.

"Well, it looks like I'll have to sell the obsidian fruit for now." Rein sighed, he wanted to use the Obsidian Fruit as armor for his balrog form but that seemed to have gone down the drain. Rein sold the fruit and it sold for 310,000 System Points!

"Okay, let's do this!" Rein used his discount card and bought it for 1.5 million, leaving him with 157,950 System Points! The Fruit appeared in his 3D interface along with his other items. Rein could only smile, even if he didn't want to, it was all he could do. He would finally get a Devil fruit ability after all this time.

Rein didn't forget to look at the Flare-Flare Fruit he had gotten, it looked just like the Flare-Flare Fruit but All Black instead. The usual light blue stem for the Flare-Flare fruit was red for this fruit but still shaped the same.

Rein looked at the Synthesis Card and thought, could he fuse them together? Was it possible? Rein checked as he brought up the Synthesis Card to read its description, it turned out that it was indeed possible to do so.

"Fuse!" The two fruits lit up in a flash of light on the interface and combine with one another! After about two minutes, the light died down to reveal the newly fused Devil Fruit!

Rein was in awe as he stared at the fruit!

Special Mythical Zoan Type!

Power is within my grasp!

Rein grabbed the fruit and took a huge bite of it and swallowed it immediately to avoid tasting it. Too bad that didn't work as the horrible taste filled his mouth with its flavor. "I thought it was an exaggeration, but it's "Blurg" true!" Rein almost vomited the fruit out but withstood the taste.

Rein sat down to his lonesome in the forest waiting for the devil fruit effects. Sure enough, he felt a change in his body. Information flooded his mind out of nowhere with a lot of information about his new powers! Rein stood up and opened his hand, but as soon as he did that, the temperature jumped and the snow around him instantly started to melt.

In his hand revealed pure Black Flames! Rein had looked at flames with complete excitement, he had to shut his hand or he would have caused a forest fire. He wasn't used to this power yet and it had to be trained, it wasn't going to be hard to get control over it anyway. With the fusion, the fruit was just like one fruit, so it was still deemed as a single fruit by the system.

When he checked the mission tab, it had locked on it. It seemed like he won't be getting any missions for a while.

Rein didn't want to reveal his power just yet and went back home. Ace and Luffy had decided to move back into the Bandit's house. Rein did the same, it wasn't a bad place but Luffy and Ace were in Dark place, if you know what I mean.

Everyone was asleep at this time, Rein walked into the storage room silent to not disturb anyone.

"Sabo! Sniff Sniff"

Crunch

Rein looked at Luffy who was calling Sabo in his sleep, it was a good thing Sabo wasn't actually dead though.

Ace wasn't far away, he was grounding his teeth in his sleep as he constantly kept tossing and turning. "Guys, hang in there, you'll meet him soon in the future after the big war, just you guys wait." Rein shook his head helplessly and laid down to sleep.

Time passed quickly, Rein, Ace, Luffy, and Erica trained a lot. Ace didn't want to be weak and worked hard over the years. Rein didn't make them aware of Haki, Luffy would learn Haki after the war and would come back stronger than ever.

And just like that, seven years had passed! Rein had learned Armament Haki already. He also trained his Devil Fruit power every day secretly. At first, Rein had trouble turning one part of his body into a Balrog part as this was always hard for Zoan users. The main thing he was trying to get down were his wings, this was the biggest problem.

He could form a blazing whip, sword, and Axe as weapons for combat. His overall strength had improved throughout the years. Ace planned to set out to sea tomorrow, Gyoru prepared a decent sized boat for Ace to set sail in for starters.

Over the years, Ace was taught about manners from Makino and how to show gratitude. He wanted to change as a person for the better, whether it was mind or strength.

Everyone through a party for Ace before he set off the next day. There was tons of food and many desserts to eat that rein had never seen before. Erica was now fourteen herself, her body had grown quite well over the years if Rein had to say so himself.

Everyone got a good night's sleep that day to see Ace off the next day.

The next didn't take long to arrive, Ace jumped in his boat but not before Rein approached him.

"Ace, take this as a gift, it will help you store all your items by helping with the load you'll be carrying." Rein took the storage ring out of his storage and handed it to Ace. The ring had a ruby red gem on it while the color of the ring was gold.

"Wait, how is this going to carry a load of items?" Ace looked confused but smiled nonetheless. Rein showed him how it worked and he was blown away by the technology these days. What he didn't know was that this tech wasn't even of this world.

"Thanks. Bro!" Ace grabbed Rein's hand and pulled him in for a hug. He did the same for Luffy and Erica, who was standing behind Luffy with a cheerful expression. After that, Ace jumped back in his boat again and sailed off, he waved his hand until no one could see him anymore as did the people onshore.

"I can't wait to set sail, I'll make my own crew and become the pirate king! I will need a crew of 9 or more, haha!" Luffy laughed heartily to himself.

"Hehe, looks like I'll be doing the same, It'll be a fun adventure across the world!" Rein looked into the distance where Ace disappeared at with an unknown expression hard to read. He planned to leave and start his adventure when he was sixteen. Rein wanted to be apart of the supernovas so he wanted to experience being a bounty hunter first and then he'll become a pirate.

"I guess I should relax, I don't even know the right methods to train Haki that well." Rein mumbled under his breath, but he had a system. He lacked skill points so he couldn't level it up that way, there was nothing here to kill that would give him anything!

"2 more years!"
