Chapter 1 Hunter's Notes

"I'm alive?"

Maud opened his eyes, straightened up suddenly, and was stunned to find himself lying on a simple wooden bed.

Before I could check the surroundings, my head suddenly tingled.

Some pictures full of fine marks revolved in my mind like a revolving lantern.

unfamiliar.

clear.

vague.

Many memory pictures were mixed up, which seemed to be the cause of the tingling in the head.

"I've clearly been..."

In addition to the stinging pain, Maud's eyes were blank.

He clearly remembered that he was unfortunately affected by the power of the wishing machine that beat the enemy Hakka during the turmoil in the hall of the Hunters Association.

Almost in an instant, without even a chance to resist, the body was twisted into a hemp rope.

The change came quickly and suddenly, but the intense pain remained, and a shadow of death enveloped Maud's thoughts.

It was as if he could vaguely feel the tear-like pain coming from his skin.

After a long time, the negative feelings brought by the shadow of death slowly disappeared.

still alive.

that's enough.

It was also at this time that Maud had the time to check his surroundings.

This is a wooden room with less than ten square meters of space, and there is a faint musty smell in the air.

There are visible cracks on the wooden walls and even the floor.

The furnishings in the room were unusually monotonous. Except for the single bed that Maud was lying on, the furniture in the room was only a set of wooden tables and chairs without ornaments, and a mirror hung on the wall.

A very low-wattage yellow incandescent lamp hangs from the ceiling, providing a limited light source for the room.

Other than that, there was nothing else in the room, not even a single window.

His eyes slowly passed over the heavily dusty table and chairs, and finally settled on the mirror covered with a thin layer of dust on the side.

Through the picture reflected in the mirror, Maud saw a strange dark-haired boy.

The young man in the mirror is about fifteen or sixteen years old. His facial features are not handsome, but he is handsome and pleasing to the eye.

The boy's forehead was wrapped in blood-stained bandages, his face was as pale as a disease, and he looked weak.

Maud stared blankly at "self" in the mirror, and the unfamiliar memories in his mind gradually became clear.

Under the brief baptism of these unfamiliar memories, Maud endured the tingling, and the uncertainty in his eyes became more and more obvious.

"So that's how it is..."

He crossed again.

Moreover, this time, it is not wearing clothes, but wearing soul clothes.

So, he survived in this way.

Breathing out slowly, Maud was not in a hurry to get out of bed to find out where he was, but closed his eyes and slowly accepted the memory left by this body in an attempt to extract useful information from it.

After a long time, Maud opened his eyes, and fine beads of sweat quietly ooze out from his pale face.

"A slave ship and a pirate ship..."

Gently wiped the sweat from his cheeks with his index finger, Maud lowered his head and muttered to himself.

He figured out the origin of this body.

The predecessor was born in a merchant, and was unfortunately robbed by pirates during a shipment.

Except for the young boy like the predecessor, all the adults on the merchant ship were slaughtered by the pirates, including the predecessor's parents.

After that, the predecessor was sold on a slave ship, and a group of young people were locked in a room covered with hay on the ground.

A few days later, the slave ship was suddenly attacked, and a cannonball blasted open the room where the predecessor was being held.

My recent memory is cut off here.

After that...

Maud touched the bandage on his forehead, but the wound didn't hurt much.

How he came to this room, he has no memory at all.

But to be able to escape in this way,

Maud is joy other than joy.

"Pirate, Pirate... Could it be the world of One Piece?"

Maud thought.

He was a little unsure.

But the only certainty right now is that everything has to be done all over again.

Including the previous five years of training in the full-time hunter world, and the ability to think that would allow him to quickly gain a foothold.

"If only the ability was still there."

Maud thought silently.

When the thought arose, without warning, a thin black notebook appeared out of thin air.

On the cover of the black notebook, two large Chinese block letters are outlined with silver lines - hunter.

Below the word [Hunter], there are four blank parallel silver lines, and an inkless quill is pinned to the spine of the notebook.

Maud's eyes widened as he looked at the embodied black notebook and quill.

Obviously there is no mind power, but the ability is activated.

and……

Maud looked at the blank space on the parallel silver line.

There should have been four words on the silver line that reflected his [needs], but now they have been emptied.

Maud opened the notebook.

What came into view was still blank.

rustle--

Open the second and third pages...

Still blank!

In the original page, he recorded the results of his entire [hunting] for four years, but now it's gone.

"Reset? No wonder no 'gain' felt."

Although the hunting results were emptied by the reset, the ability was still there, enough to make Maud ecstatic.

The Hunter's Note is a growth ability developed by Maud in order to maximize the intelligence advantage of the traversers when he was in the full-time hunter world.

To activate the ability, you have to complete five steps, which are:

Set hunting needs → find hunting targets → prepare for hunting → complete hunting actions → harvest hunting results.

The first step is to record four different needs according to their own needs on the silver line. The four needs recorded by Maud at the beginning are: reading ability skills, heart drop boxing listening, potential energy, and manifest energy.

But if it is in the world of One Piece, these needs are obviously not feasible.

However, some needs can be shared.

Such as physical skills, such as swordsmanship, such as physical strength, such as Devil Fruit ability experience, and domineering experience...

After entering [Requirements], as long as you write the name of the target on the note page, and at the same time generate the appearance of the target in your mind, you can complete the second step of finding the hunting target.

The third hunting preparation step after that is to record the correct ability information of the hunting target in all aspects.

The ability is still there, even if it is to do it all over again, it can grow up at the fastest speed.

Maud was excited, but also calmed down quickly.

He realized a problem.

While the Hunter's Note is still there, he's not sure if it applies to the current world.

If it doesn't apply, it's a waste of joy.

Slowly closing the hunter's notebook, Maud said to himself: "It's a good start, but we still have to figure out the current situation as soon as possible."

As soon as the voice fell, a gunshot suddenly sounded outside.

Maud's face changed, he fell out of bed like a conditioned reflex, and looked at the closed door vigilantly.

After that, the gunshots became more and more dense, like the sound of frequent fireworks blooming in the distance, some distance away.

Hearing that the source of the gunshot was not inside the house, but somewhere outside the house, Maud did not let his guard down, and subconsciously squeezed the hunter's notes.

With his current body, if there is an emergency, he will only be the fish on someone else's chopping board, and he will be slaughtered by others.

The sound of gunfire going back and forth continued for a full five minutes before gradually subsiding, and Maud stared at the door for more than five minutes.

The sound of gunfire just now gave him a preliminary sense of the chaos in this world.

Holding the hunter's notebook tightly, it couldn't bring any sense of security.

Because, the current hunter's notes can be said to be useless, and only after a successful hunt can you get a real gain.

tom tom—

Not long after the gunshots subsided, Maud heard footsteps from far to near outside the door, his pupils shrank slightly, and he withdrew the hunter's note.

Then, he got up quickly, put his footsteps lightly, and leaned his back against the wall to the right of the door.

Under the premise of unknown circumstances, it is more advantageous to be on the side of the door instead of squatting on the edge of the empty wooden bed.

Soon, footsteps came close.

Maud tilted his head to the right, holding his breath.

crunch--

The wooden door was pushed open, making an unpleasant sound.

However, no one entered the room, instead a dark muzzle was protruded.

And the muzzle was facing Maud at a weird angle.

In an instant, Maud's whole body froze, and his heart skipped a beat.
