Chapter 3

Loki POV

I was born and raised in Japan, I have seen weird stuff made of people imaginations from VR games, giant robots, Godzilla, etc... nothing is impossible as long as you can dream it.

But that 'thing'

That Abomination

The horror... a real living den den mushi! If there was a doubt of me being reborn in One Piece it vanishes the moment I lay my eyes on the horror.

Four years ago, on mine and Luffy's first birthday Ji-chan was so hyped about it, he decided to have many pictures and videos taken for the memories. It was my nightmare coming to life,

Ji-chan were holding a snail... A SNAIL! With two big eyeballs, eyes that got iris, pupil, caruncle, sclera, lower eyelid, and upper eyelid.

All in the too fine detail of human eyeball.

As if having eyes like a human is not enough the snail also got lips and teeth and it makes a camera shutter like sound Every time Ji-chan presses its gastropod shell. I was scared out of my mind, I was frozen stiff as Ji-chan bring that abomination closer to mine and Luffy face.

Safe to say it was the loudest cry I had ever let out my 1-year-old lung. I was a complete mess, without a care for my not so develop baby muscles, I stood up and ran like a headless chicken, I was running and falling and repeat until Ji-chan finally caught me in his arms and I pass out with the horror... right next to my face.

Anyway, that fateful day marks the beginning of my suffering.

'I'm living inside of anime''

I'll be blunt, I am not thrilled at all.

Being reborn in One Piece is the most insane, wretched problem that could ever happen to a person. One would argue how lucky I am to be born as the famous anime character Luffy twin or born knowing the future and change it as you like, shit like that.

Fuck that shit like fantasy.

It was one thing knowing I died and reborn but One Piece?

One Piece is a big deal in Japan, I'm not that much of a fan, but I heard it mention in conversation with friends or saw it played on TV, I'm pretty sure they made a museum of it somewhere in Tokyo.

Because it was such a big deal even if I'm not a big fan I know of it to some extent! Luffy, the protagonist's family is full of criminals wanted by the world government.

Father is a Revolutionary Army leader...' Isn't that like a terrorist?'

And two older brothers, one who is a noble birth turned bad and rebel against the world government, the other is a pirate king son who is also an infamous pirate commander. Of course let's not forget Luffy, the boy who going to be pirate king, the whole anime was about him becoming pirate king.

Other than Ji-chan who is the hero of the world government the rest of them is a wanted criminal

Luffy, Ace and Sabo aside, the fact won't change that my dad is the most wanted criminal by the world government, this alone is a guarantee of a miserable future for me.

There was no way for me to view this new life of mine is positive light, don't even start with chancing your future shit those isekai anime spout, as if one person can change the world with just being reborn, the world is too gigantic for one man to change, look what happen to Julius Caesar and Adolf Hitler.

I was honestly surprised how easily I accept the fact that I'm inside an anime but honestly there was no room for denial or play around. I made up my mind to follow Ji-chan and train under him forever instead. This world is full of monsters and I'm just a normal human both mentally and physically, no matter who my family is I doubt Ji-chan, Luffy and the others get their strength from their genes or their secret family name D.

I'm not gambling my life to 'what if'

There was no time to waste trying to convince my twin and his soon to be older brothers into leaving their life of piracy and terrorism.

There was only one way for me to survive in this world and that is to become a strong marine like Ji-chan

And that's how the 5-year old me and Luffy is currently fighting monkeys...

Garp POV

"Motherfucker!" Loki howled as he charges angrily toward the agile monkey.

"Argh! Fuck this shit!" Again Loki curse angrily.

"Loki stop cursing!" I scold "you only make it worse" honestly I have no idea where this kid learns how to curse hardly anyone in the town curse, most people here just used insult like idiot or jerk. Observing the twins I can't help but compare them with each other again. Loki is without a doubt a spitting image of Dragon, he is always on a short fuse, while Luffy is patient and calm, fighting the monkeys with few painful grunts.

"Ugh... Ji-chan!" Luffy groans painfully as he stands up after being kick by the monkey. "Why did you tell us to fight these monkeys?" He complains, glancing worriedly at his cursing twin. "It's training Luffy" I explain, smiling fondly at the oldest. "Training?" He echoes, seemingly confuses at the idea. "This just tired us out and I don't want to get hit!"

"Don't complain Luffy" I rub his head gently. "Loki might get beat up and curse a lot, but he didn't complain, you the older brother right?" I tease and Luffy quickly retreats, running back to the fight and help his brother against the monkeys.

It was easy to use Loki as an excuse to raise Luffy's motivation, despite their difference it was clear that the twins get along well with each other, Loki admires Luffy, who always hates to lose and try to be strong like his big brother. Luffy had little choice but to try and exceed Loki's expectations.

"Raaaaaaaaaaa!" Loki let out a war cry as he jumps on the monkey and beat it down.

Seriously though... Loki worried me, he is too young for all that anger in him.

After the twins done training and beat up from head to toe I took both of them back home and shoo them to take a bath while I make dinner. Tomorrow I will leave the twins and return to Grandline, 5 years had passed and it's time for me to return to my duties.

I make sure everything was prepared for the twins before I left, Woop Slap promise to look after the kids until I come back, as for the food, I already gave more than enough berries to the market and the partys bar Makino owns to feed the boys for a year.

Everything is perfectly arranged, I will head back to Grandline, complete my duty as a vice admiral and come home to check the twins every 3 months. This was for the best... if I stay too long here the world government would be suspicious and done thorough research, even if it's just a few years, I must pull the world government attention somewhere else... away from the east blue.
