Starting with One Piece, a Multiverse Simulation

However, as for the Marineford War, I wouldn't mind going to join in the fun, but I doubt many people would go.

Nico Robin is unlikely to help the Navy, and the Fish-Men are not suitable to participate in the Marineford War. They already have conflicts with humans, and if they rashly participate in such a battle, all of Queen Otohime's efforts over the years will be in vain.

So even if we participate in the Marineford War, it's highly likely that only Ruth and I will go.

Hearing what Wood said, Fleet Admiral Sengoku did not insist. As long as Wood was willing to participate in the Marineford War, that was fine. He mainly wanted to have an extra layer of insurance to prevent any unexpected situations.

I will leave a gap for you at the Gate of Justice. With your abilities, getting here shouldn't be too difficult.

After finishing their business, Wood and Sengoku both put down their Den Den Mushi. Sengoku locked the Den Den Mushi back into the encrypted secret compartment of the room, while Wood simply put it into his pocket. After thinking for a moment, he told Robin and Russ again that he planned to go into seclusion for training again.

Wood had previously gained two opportunities to simulate the multiverse during his missions fighting alongside Big Mom and Kaido.

He had used one time when he went to the "Zero World", but now he could perform one more simulation of life in multiple worlds, so Wood decided to just use it directly.

The Marineford War is probably the highest-level war in One Piece so far, featuring the world's strongest man versus the three admirals of the Navy, and the Whitebeard Pirates versus Marineford.

Those who participated in this battle included Whitebeard, the three admirals of the Navy, many other Navy officers of all ranks, the captains of the 16 divisions of the Whitebeard Pirates, and the "Seven Warlords of the Sea".

To put it simply, most of the most influential figures on the high seas will be gathered there this time.

Although Wood was quite confident in his current strength, he was not so arrogant as to think he could sweep through the Marineford War.

Since the simulation opportunity had no other use, Wood decided to conduct one more simulation of life across multiple worlds before the Marineford War.

I don't seek to become so powerful that I break through the heavens; I only seek to improve my current strength and increase my confidence when facing the BOSS in the Marineford War.

Ruth and Robin were already used to their captain's frequent seclusion for training.

Despite being incredibly strong, their captain always felt that he wasn't strong enough, or that the enemy was stronger than him.

What Robin and his crew found even more unacceptable was that every time Wood disappeared for ten days or half a month, his already ridiculously powerful strength would become even stronger.

Other powerful beings on the high seas will encounter bottlenecks once their strength reaches a certain limit, causing their progress to slow down.

But their captain is different. He's already incredibly strong, yet he keeps getting stronger, and there's no such thing as a bottleneck for him. Getting stronger is as easy as eating and drinking.

Robin and Ruth have followed Wood for so many years, so they naturally know the secret to Wood's growing strength, which is related to what he did while locked in the room.

But they never bothered to find out, because it was Wood's own secret.

As beings who are extremely loyal to Wood, they not only do not try to find out Wood's secrets, but also help him cover them up and guard against them.

Whenever Wood enters the room, Robin and Ruth protect it in their own way.

Only observant people would notice that Ruth, who usually liked to slack off, would occasionally wander outside Wood's room during this period, ostensibly to take a walk.

Although Robin rarely appears, her many "eyes and ears" generated by her Flower Flower Fruit often appear in various corners outside the room, constantly on guard and monitoring everyone who passes by.

Chapter 396 Simulation begins, Slay the Scarlet Eyes!

"Consume and use the Multiverse Simulation opportunity?"

"Yes!"

Ding! The Multiverse Life Simulation is about to begin. This plane is about to enter a state of slowed time flow. The host will be traversing planes within five seconds. Please be prepared.

Result of this selection: Akame ga Kill!

Countdown to transmigration begins: 5, 4, 3... 1! The multiverse simulation life begins!

Hearing the familiar notification sound in his ear, and after a brief period of drowsiness, when Wood woke up again, he found himself in a new world with a new identity.

"Hey, recruit, what are you daydreaming about? General Najendan is calling you. With your half-baked personality, you'd be wiped out very quickly if you went to the battlefield."

Unlike his previous Sims, when Wood woke up this time, he wasn't alone. Instead, he was in a military camp surrounded by other people wearing the same armor or clothes as him.

The system had just sent him to this world, and Wood hadn't even had time to absorb the relevant knowledge in his brain, when a colleague pushed him forward.

"Is this a new recruit going to the battlefield for the first time? It's okay. Seeing such a cruel and bloody scene, let alone a new recruit like you, even I, who have been fighting for many years, can't help but feel nauseous and angry."

Although these border tribes are enemies of the Empire, General Esdeath's actions were still somewhat excessive...

Enough said. Hand over the military map. We need to plan our attack route so we can rendezvous with General Esdeath as soon as possible and defeat the aliens.

The person who appeared before Wood and spoke was a woman with light purple hair, a curvaceous figure, and an extremely beautiful appearance, but who also looked very capable.

After hearing what the other person said, Wood belatedly realized that he was holding a roll of blueprints, which was obviously the map the other person had mentioned, so he quickly handed it over.

The capable-looking woman in military uniform took the map from Wood without saying much, and began to study it carefully.

As for Wood, who was still in a daze, he quickly returned to his original position to absorb the memories in his mind in order to avoid making any more mistakes.

However, just as he began to absorb the memories in his mind, a boy dressed in the same soldier's uniform as him, but with green hair, hooked his arm around Wood's neck with a wicked grin and said, "How about it, isn't General Najenda very beautiful?"

"I knew you were so bold normally, why were you acting so awkward just now? Turns out you were using this trick to get the boss's attention and concern."

"Damn it, why didn't I think of this method before!"

"But we agreed beforehand that you weren't interested in General Najendan. You only joined the army because life at home was too boring, so you came out to seek excitement."

When the green-haired boy hooked his arm around Wood's neck, Wood took a moment to finally recall some relevant information about the green-haired boy and himself.

In this world, he is still called Wood, but although he is now a lowly soldier, he was originally from a wealthy local family and was the heir to a large merchant family.

Because of his love for martial arts since childhood, coupled with his considerable talent, he had already defeated all his peers without any rivals since he was a child.

That's why Wood wanted to come to the battlefield to find someone stronger and more capable of fighting.

For this purpose, he even gave up his comfortable family environment and the opportunity to inherit the family business.

As for the green-haired man next to Wood who seems to know Wood quite well, his name is Lubbock, and he is also Wood's good friend and childhood friend.

He also came from a wealthy local family and was a prominent business family, which is why he and Wood grew up together. However, compared to Wood's status as the heir to the Wood family, Lubbock was merely the fourth son of the family.

Logically speaking, although Lubbock's status as the fourth son meant he couldn't inherit the family business, his family's vast wealth meant he could easily live a life of luxury as a millionaire.

But Lubbock chose to abandon everything to join the army, even coming to fight on the extremely dangerous southwestern border.

Wood came here seeking a powerful opponent, while Lubbock was only there for the beautiful purple-haired general, Najendan.

Before coming to the southwestern border, Najendan had served in the area where Wood and Lubbock were located. Lubbock was deeply attracted to Najendan the first time he saw her.

She even gave up a comfortable life to volunteer for the army and rose step by step to become a member of Najendan's guard.

As for Wood, he hadn't actually intended to join the army at first. It was only because of Lubbock's sweet talk that he ended up falling into the trap with him.

Lubbock's secret love for Najendan was something he kept very well hidden, but he couldn't fool Wood, who had grown up with him.

Since the truth had been revealed, Lubbock thought it best to just let Wood fall into the trap. He told Wood that as long as he joined the army, he could fight against many powerful and dangerous creatures, which was why Wood was here.

"I would never use such a low-level approach to pick up girls. I was just spacing out and didn't realize it just now. By the way, since you, Lubbock, are so keen on her, why don't you take the initiative?"

Looking at Lubbock, who was clinging to his neck with a worried expression, Wood pushed the other man's head away with a look of disgust.

Undeniably, Najenda is quite beautiful, not only with stunning looks but also with a very dashing and heroic air. Unfortunately, Wood has seen too many beautiful women and doesn't feel anything for Najenda.

Lubbock is a total older sister enthusiast. The two of them are at most thirteen or fourteen years old, while Najenda looks to be in her mid-twenties. In terms of age, Najenda probably thinks of them as young boys.

"What do you know? True love doesn't necessarily mean possession; you can also choose to silently protect..."

Wood was speechless at the pure sycophantic lines. He was clearly a complete coward, yet he insisted on becoming a guardian angel like others!

"Tsk, even if you are an angel, you're a green-haired angel. Judging from the color of your 'forgiveness' hair, I can tell you're going to fall sooner or later."

Najendan is decisive and capable, and she is wholeheartedly devoted to the future of the Empire. Wood understands very well that she is simply not the kind of person who would fall in love.

In other words, Lubbock's love will ultimately come to nothing, and he may not even be able to express it. Otherwise, given Najenda's personality, the possibility of him failing is extremely high.

"In short, as long as you keep your promise and don't harm my goddess, her wish is for the empire to prosper peacefully."

If I can help her fulfill this wish, there will still be a chance sooner or later.

Even if Wood didn't say it, Lubbock knew very well that he had no chance now, because Najendan's heart was with the Empire.

Only when the Empire is truly liberated can Najenda's bound heart be released, and only then will she have a chance.

Of course, on the other hand, he also needs to make sure that the brother beside him doesn't become his rival in love.

Lubbock is proud and has known how to hide his talent and excellence since childhood, but when facing his childhood friend, he really can't be proud.

He came from a wealthy family, as did Wood, but he was only the fourth son and had no right to inherit the family business, while Wood was the eldest son and had the right to inherit the family business.

He is very strong and is the user of the Teigu "Cross Tail", but Wood is also a Teigu user and is much stronger than him.

Before becoming a "Teigu user", Wood was already a strongman in his area. The guards he hired couldn't even beat him when he was only a few years old.

In terms of looks, Wood might not be stunningly handsome, but among his peers, there were indeed few who could outshine him.

With his good looks, wealth, and exceptional abilities, Wood has been the object of pursuit for many wealthy young ladies since childhood.

It was because he felt inferior to Wood in every way that Lubbock was always wary of Wood setting his sights on his goddess and becoming his rival.

"You can rest assured, I'm only interested in strong people. Besides, I'm just a teenager, why would I chase after an older woman who's at least a decade older than me if I'm not going to focus on dating pretty girls?"

Not everyone is as into mature women as you are. Anyway, even though they're both mature women, I actually prefer the previous general named Esdeath to Najenda.

The Esdeath that Wood mentioned was also one of the Empire's generals, and she had a hot figure and long, knee-length blue hair.

Of course, Wood didn't know the other person; he only knew of this person from the battlefield some time ago.

The other party is also one of the "Teigu users", and the most powerful Teigu user. His abilities are somewhat similar to those of Admiral Aokiji, whom Wood is familiar with, as they both wield the power of ice.

"You like that guy who's like a female demon! It can't be just because he's strong, can it...?"

Lubbock shuddered at the mention of Esdeath's name. Although he was into mature women, he simply couldn't accept Esdeath.
