After transmigrating into the world of One Piece, Link is bound to the most infuriating villain System ever: its ultimate reward is a world-ending attack capable of destroying an entire plane.
But to claim it, he has to personally “raise” Luffy until he reaches Gear Five and becomes a god!
“So I have to help my archenemy become king before I earn the right to destroy the world?”
And so the sea is treated to the strangest spectacle imaginable:
At the Paramount War, he sends the dying Luffy flying with one punch, then turns to Sengoku and reports gravely, “Letting pirates witness hope being crushed is the best deterrent.” In truth, he used Haki to protect Luffy’s heart.
On Onigashima in Wano Country, he tears the sky apart amid the thunder and declares war on both Kaido and Luffy. The crushing pressure of his near-death threat becomes the final catalyst for Nika’s awakening. “Your brush with death has arrived. Please collect it.”
In public, he is the Marines’ youngest “Iron-Blooded Inspector General,” a decorated war hero and the standard-bearer of the hardline faction.
In secret, he is the mastermind pulling the strings of the age, carefully arranging every “life-or-death trial” for the Straw Hat Pirates.
Doflamingo approaches him with a plan to seize a country, and he turns around and sends him to Impel Down. Blackbeard invites him to hunt Devil Fruit users, and he smiles as he hands over a Marine ambush plan. Shanks invites him for a drink, but as he raises his glass, all he can think is, “How many years from now should I let Luffy have this drink?”
When Luffy finally becomes the Sun God, his laughter rings across Laugh Tale.
System notification: [Ultimate mission complete. “Finale: Annihilation” has been issued.]
Link gazes at the orb in his hand, powerful enough to annihilate the world, then looks toward the dawn of a new age and falls into deep thought.
What kind of ending should he write for this epic he directed himself, using the world-ending attack in his hands?
The nanny doesn't like to watch.
