The War That Should Have Ended

Arthur_Pendragone
This world has ended—yet it was never given the chance to mourn. From the ruins of the old civilization, a new and brutal order was born: magic and machines were forged into weapons, cities rose atop shattered foundations, and history was rewritten by the victors. In Galmasca, slavery was legalized in the name of reconstruction—and slaves were turned into soldiers, thrown onto battlefields so the “free” world would not have to spill its own blood. A man—one slave with no future—is forcibly drafted into Galmasca’s military. He does not fight for glory or hope. He fights because if he doesn’t, he’ll die sooner. But on the battlefield, he loses something that should never have been the price of the world’s stability. From that moment on, war stops being about survival—and becomes about revenge. His search for answers drags him deeper into the state’s war machine: operations buried from official records, cities sacrificed in the name of “necessity,” and lies repeated endlessly so the world won’t collapse under the weight of its own past. Each step toward the one responsible for his loss only tears open a greater wound—that the world’s destruction was not an accident, but the result of deliberate choices, inherited across generations. Caught between the urge to retaliate, the need to stay alive, and a system that requires his blood to keep standing, the former slave learns a truth no one ever taught him: this world does not endure because of justice, but because of lies repeated until they become reality. And if he chooses to demand the truth, he may have to become the enemy of the very world he wants to destroy— or save—on his own terms.

One Piece: Starting Out as the Monkey King

Stranded on a deserted island as an eight-year-old boy in the brutal, monster-filled world of One Piece? Definitely not an ideal start for a transmigrator. However, fate had other plans when a careless birthday wish was granted. Armed with meta-knowledge of the future and a god-tier Devil Fruit—the Mythical Zoan: Monkey-Monkey Fruit, Model: Monkey King—the boy, now named Bardock, refuses to be a mere background character. With an indestructible body, Fiery Golden Eyes that can perceive the microscopic, and the Flying Nimbus, he tames the savage island and dives into hellish training to survive. His journey truly kicks off when he manages to hitch a ride on the Red Hair Pirates' galleon. There, he not only becomes Shanks's favorite barbecue chef but also unexpectedly awakens his own Conqueror's Haki (Haoshoku Haki) while witnessing a sky-splitting duel between Shanks and "Hawkeye" Dracule Mihawk. Now, Bardock has dropped anchor at the Sabaody Archipelago—a chaotic hub crawling with wanted pirates and corrupt World Nobles. Crewless, completely broke, and blocked by World Government bureaucracy from returning to the West Blue, Bardock has to get creative to make some quick cash. And so, an absurd legend is born. Hidden behind sunglasses and a familiar blue hat, Bardock starts cleaning the streets of low-bounty pirates in the dead of night with nothing but a metal baseball bat. Concealing his true monstrous strength, he cashes in his targets at the Marine Base under a pseudonym that will one day make a certain reindeer doctor cry in absolute frustration: "Tony Tony Chopper," the infamous bounty hunter dubbed "Blackjack Chopper." With no cheat system to hold his hand and no powerful patron to protect him, Bardock is determined to assemble his own crew and carve his name into the annals of the sea. This is the story of a boy wielding the power of the Monkey King, ready to turn the Grand Line upside down in his pursuit of absolute freedom!
