An accident caused by alcohol caused college student Lin Qiu to be reborn as Alex, a beggar in the North Sea. When he opened his eyes, he saw a turbulent world in 1498 of the Ocean Calendar - the embers of the Battle of the Valley of Gods were still lingering, the undercurrent of Devil Fruit was surging, and the legend of Roger the Pirate King was approaching its final chapter.
Possessed with the ability of the mysterious Asura fruit, Lin Qiu uses the wisdom of modern people and the eyes of Asura to discern destiny. From the life and death struggle in the slums of the Saltpeter Kingdom to putting on the "just" cloak of a naval officer, he dealt with the world government, the Rocks remnants and the revolutionary army in blood and fire. In the ashes of O'Hara, he rescued the young Nicole Robin; on the execution platform in Rogge Town, he witnessed the Pirate King igniting the era with his death; in the undercurrent of Marine Fando, he built the iron wall of the navy with Aokiji, Akainu, and Kizaru, but quietly guarded the secret that subverted the world.
When the truth about the Valley of the Gods emerges from the historical text, and when the Asura Fruit tears apart the centuries-old lies of the Celestial Dragons, Lin Qiu has to make a choice between absolute justice and human conscience - to become a sharp blade for the navy to destroy pirates, or to become a Shura who cuts off shackles?
