(The blurb doesn't do it justice, so please read the story.)
Wang Lie, an internet-addicted teenager, transmigrates into the world of pirates and unexpectedly becomes the orphan of Wang Zhi, a top officer of the Rocks Pirates. Reborn, he is immediately driven out of Flower Country, then picked up by Shanks and becomes an "outside operative" for the Red Hair Pirates. Ten years later, Wang Lie chooses to leave the Red Hair Pirates and usher in an era of his own.
"There are hundreds of countries in this world, from kingdoms with royal capitals to small villages on any old island. All kinds of crimes happen every day: robbery, gang warfare, disputes over profits, and so on..."
"These crimes happen every moment. They pass through layer after layer of political leaders before eventually reaching the kings or officials in charge of each territory. If cases pile up for too long without being dealt with, unrest among the common people is inevitable."
To quell such unrest without making enemies, kings naturally turn to the "bounty shop" operated by Wang Lie, who works in the gray areas.
The powerful pay for "bounties" to take the blame for these cases, thereby calming the anger of the common people.
A certain noble: "I need five people to take the fall for a robbery. They'll be sentenced to five months."
Wang Lie: "Three hundred thousand Berries each. Once the money's in, they'll turn themselves in tomorrow."
A certain Marine: "I heard my superior is being transferred to another branch soon. I want a promotion, but I don't have enough achievements in battle!"
Wang Lie: "But I heard a pirate crew is going to attack a village in your branch's waters tomorrow. This vital task of protecting the people can only be entrusted to you!"
Wang Lie: I will leave a vivid mark on this era.
