《Two Doors》Chapter 6. Pirates are dicks
Advertisement
Eric steps onto the sandy beach. He’s about to walk down the beachside when an idea strikes him. Why don’t I just fly? And so Eric thinks about a jet-pack forming on his back. After it forms Eric thinks about it starting. He shoots into the sky as fast as a jet. The G-force almost makes him pass out.
Eric turns the thrusters down a bit, and after he stops screaming, enjoys flying. The warm breeze of a tropical island. In the distance, he can see buildings. It's a coastal town. He lands a few miles outside of the small town and starts walking over. He doesn't want to scare anybody.
On the way there he tries to make his armor look like clothing. The armor can’t make a shirt and pants or anything so he just makes it a trench coat. He also figured out that he could make a hat so he makes a cowboy hat to finish his look.
Just when he finishes the details he makes it to the front of the town. He passes by a hotel and a bar. He stops in front of the bar and looks at the billboard in front of it. A bunch of wanted posters are tacked to the board. This reminds him of something but he doesn't know what.
After a second of thinking Eric just shrugs and walks into the bar. The only patrons in the bar are In one corner. There's a table full of rowdy-looking men laughing and drinking. They all have swords and a few have flintlock pistols.
“That's gotta be a coincidence. Wanted pirate posters, swords, and flintlocks. There's no way in hell,” Eric thinks.
Eric sits on a stool at the bar and an older-looking man with no hair and a bit of a gut walks up to him.

“What can I getcha?” The man asks Eric.
Eric hasn’t been to a bar before, let alone order alcohol.
“Um, a beer?” Eric tells the man.
“Comin’ right up” The bartender smiles and starts pouring his drink.
“Oy, we need more liquor over here!” One pirate shouts at a barmaid.
She grabs a few bottles of alcohol and walks over to their table.
“Here ya are,” says the bartender as he sets Eric’s drink down.
Out of the corner of his eye, Eric can see one pirate grab the barmaid’s ass. She slaps him in the face and the pirate gets up and punches her in the stomach. The bartender yells and runs over to the barmaid.
The pirate pulls his gun out and points it at the bartender and says
“If you don’t get on your knees and beg for your daughter's life, your both gonna die,” the pirate sneers.
The rest of the pirates laugh hysterically like it's the funniest thing they’ve ever seen.
Pirate POV-
“Your stupid bitch of a daughter is gonna get you killed, old man,” I laugh in their faces. “Your not very convincing, be-” I'm interrupted by a face I haven’t seen before.
“God, this is so cliche.” The man groans as he gets up.
“Who the fuck do you think you are?” I raise my gun at the stupid fuck who dares speak against a proud seashell pirate.
Before I can pull the trigger the man teleports in front of me. I pull the trigger and the man smiles as he leans his head down and the bullet bounces off of his hat. The man takes the gun from my hand and crushes it. Half of my crewmates run while the other half freeze in fear.

The man's arm turns into a huge dark silver blade.
“He’s a devil fruit user!” I hear one of my crewmates scream.
“Devil fruit? Holy shit, I’m actually in One Piece!” The man talks to himself. I grab my sword and swing it at the distracted man.
“Your dead!” I laugh.
The man looks up and his arm disappears. I fall over. Wait not all of me. My body stays standing. Just my head is falling.
3rd person-
I’d thought I’d feel bad after killing somebody. Maybe it’s because he’s a scumbag killer? Eric thinks to himself. “What have you done?! They’re gonna come back and kill us all!” The old man screams at Eric. Eric shoves him over a table. “Don’t yell at me” Eric tells the old man while he leaves.
In front of the bar is a group of thirty pirates. “That's him!” One pirate tells a big man with a cool hat. It looks like the one Jack Sparrow had. Eric wants it. The pirate captain pulls out two scimitars. “Get’em boys!” The captain screams as he lunges for Eric. The rest of the pirates scream and jump at Eric.
Eric covers himself in blades and puts thrusters on his arms. He activates his thrusters and starts spinning. All the nearest pirates get shredded. Eric shoots forward directly into the captain shredding him. Eric had purposely avoided the hat.
Only ten pirates are left alive. Eric quickly kills all of them except the second-best dressed pirate. “Your captain is dead. Your crew-mates are dead. You're going to die too… unless you show me where you stashed your beli” Eric threatens the last survivor.
The pirate takes Eric back to their base in the jungle and opens a false floor. There are several treasure chests of beli in the hole. “Is there a marine base on this island?” Eric asks the pirate. “Yes sir, there is. It's at the docks at the front of the town.” Eric just nods, and while counting the beli, slices the pirate into pieces.
Eric throws most of the beli into his dimensional storage holding onto a few thousand. He doesn't remember how much stuff costs. He walks back into town and finds a few marines questioning the bartender.
Eric approaches the two. “-then he just walked outside and I could hear screaming- That's him!” The bartender points at Eric. The marine pulls his sword out and points it at Eric. “Halt! You’re under arrest” The marine pulls out handcuffs.

Forced Development (What does it truly mean to live a fulfilling life?)
To get things started I would like to admit that this story does not bring much new to the table when it comes to the over-saturated Litrpg genre in terms of things like mechanics and power systems. Then what exactly am I trying to bring to the table with this work? A nice slow-paced novel about people maturing and growing older think of it as the re: zero or jobless reincarnation of Litrpgs. A story that tries to take into consideration how a worldwide system would affect the economics and culture of a world. A story that is much more character-focused than the typical heavy progression-focused novels this genre is known for. The RPG system, like any good power system, is there to actually explore the themes of the story and not just as a plot device for characters to get stronger. This is a story where we will see the growth of the Mc from being a baby to when he dies of old age. With plenty of heart-racing actions and intriguing plot developments along the way. Exploring themes like; What does it mean to improve at something and what does it mean to mature as a person? How does magic, the constant threat of monsters and people so much stronger than the average joe that they can destroy countries affect one's culture both on the micro and the macro scale? How people are affected by the culture in general? Generational trauma Nature vs Nurture Talent vs hard work What is morality, society, and people's opinions on both? What does it mean to be human and what does it mean to be alive in the context of a world with multiple sapient species vastly different from one another in basic biology? All these questions are going to be explored from multiple angles using the system as a catalyst for those discussions. So if any of does questions sound interesting to you what are you waiting for, I'm sure you are going to love this story. PS - Chapter come out every Friday at about the same time.
