《With this system I will live how I wish.》Chapter 2: Adjusting
Advertisement
It has been three months since my birth and I have learnt a lot. Firstly the world is the one piece world and I seem to have been born as a grandson of Garp. My name is Monkey D. Jax which makes life easier keeping the name. The system has rained quiet but I’m not too concerned as in this world I can grow strong and even without a system I will push myself. My father seems to be a promising navy officer by the name of Monkey D. Panther yet he left to join my uncle in the revolutionary army. I have yet to see him. My mother is a loving yet rather scatter brained woman who will occasionally forget to feed my luckily my uncle Shanks has been around these months and reminds her. Yes that is correct my uncle is Shanks one of the Yonko. I was rather surprised by this but I became accustomed to his goofy smirk and realised he was like my mother a kind person. From conversations I pickup my family has decided to allow me to follow my grandfather to the navy as there I can best learn and go on to make my own choice of which path to follow. Life is rather blissful at the moment, I spend most of the time attempting to walk and doing vocal exercises to help my vocal chords develop. I succeeded in crawling at one month and have been reading since mostly learning of the devil fruits. My mother was astounded when she saw me looking concentratedly at a book on beasts, she proceeded to squeal.
“My wittle boys a wittle genius, eeeeee he’s sho cute”
The baby talk I’ve come to understand and question, I never thought much of it my last life but would baby talk not be silly as it gives the child the wrong impression of words and even so they don’t understand so why talk in such a fashion. Eveidently my words do not reach my mother as she proceeds to use such a tone. My goals for the future are to first walk and speak a few words so I can obtain intial abilities of communication.

—————————————
I am now sitting in my bed in deep concentration, before my eyes are three cards. To explain today was my 1st birthday and I was rather pleased with myself in this year I had learnt to walk albeit unsteadily as well as could speak a few words at a time. I was awoken to
[SYSTEM REBOOT]
[DUE TO INCREASE IN WORLD DANGER SYSTEM PROVIDES THREE DRAWS FOR INCREASED SURVIVAL RATE]
A deck of cards appeared before my eyes and three were then extracted from the middle and here I am staring at three cards. I will the first card to turn over in anticipation of what’s to come.
[skill card]
[rarity: epic]
[name: Training and learning X 50]
[description: all things are learnt 50 times faster and training has 50 times normal effects]
This ability seemed perfect to my eyes. My excitement seemed to burn even more as I eyed the remaining cards with a lustful gaze. They both turned over and I examined the cards
[technique card]
[rarity: common]
[name: dagger basics]
[description: basic dagger techniques (most effective akimbo) essential for special techniques pertaining to daggers]
[skill card]
[rarity: uncommon]
[name: passive agility growth]
[description: agility increases by 2 for each minor stage and 20 every major stage]
As the last card was read two white orbs and one green flew into my head. The system then informed me
[TO GAIN MORE CARDS PLEASE PROMOTE TO NEXT MAJOR STAGE]
As I saw this message I became confused but this passed soon as a personal card appeared.
[name: Monkey D. Jax]
[Attributes: Strength 0.5, Agility 0.5, Dexterity 0.3, Intelligence 26, Charm 100, luck 10]
[skills: Training and learning X50, passive agility increase]
[techniques: dagger basics]
[stage: Un-awakened]
[minor stage: 0]
[special energy: 0/10]
[TO UPRGADE STAGE PLEASE PROVIDE ENERGY FROM STRONG BEINGS OR BUILD UP VIA TRAINING]
With this I knew my new goal. It was necessary to grow, I knew however as a child I couldn’t workout or go kill beasts, so until at least my fifth birthday I would just run, read and meditate to strengthen my mind, body and soul.

Granted boundless potential, he and his party would soon rise to prominence, becoming some of the greatest adventurers the world had ever see- *Ahem* Sorry, I've been told by the MC to say he's just an average guy. Nothing special about him. A traditional fantasy story with a (hopefully) new twist on the magic system. There's adventure, combat, monsters, magic, banter, and of course: pork belly.

If you see any typos, mock me as much as you want because I should feel bad about it.
