Chapter 3 - 3
Josh, who had been thinking of going to have a one-night stand with his boss, stopped for a brief while he was reading the task that appeared in front of him all of the sudden.
Still, in the back of his mind, he determined to lose this body's virginity before doing it. However, for now, his focus was on the screen that no one could see but himself.
Even the stall owner was praying in his heart that Josh didn't die from choking.
[Task: A Roof to grow under.
Your first desire, in your gambler path, is to find a roof to grow under and gain from. Baroque work is opening its gate for talents to join their lines. The bounty hunting organisation is shady. But one can always play his cards for what he sees right.
Are you ready to take the gamble and take the chips to gamble?

Mystery Box tier 3 (+ Excellent Rank)
10 Draw Points.
What you are betting.:
-10 Draw Points.
- Anything can happen to you in the test, from injuries to death
Are you man enough you Gamble (Yes/No) ]
Now, there are chances for him to win and lose. He has the choice.
However, the last line from the system is asking him if he will gamble or not.
It sounds not like being forced to do something. But, once he accepts, he must accept the consequences.
It's a real bet. Except that he is betting on his own life now.
Josh suddenly felt severe pain in his back.
Turning, he saw 3 meters tall old fat man slapping on his back.
"Cough! What the hell is wrong with you!" Josh yelled.
Although the guy was so bulky, it wasn't something unusual to see in One Piece world.
"Nothing kid." The old man said. "You were choked and didn't breathe. So, I had to help you."
"Ahem." Josh rubbed his throat. "Thanks. Give me some soup, please."
"Which one."
"The one that contains Sea monster."
Since he is was considering doing something dangerous, the salary is soon to go in food.
The old man just smiled. "Only 7000 berries." He then went to prepare it.
Meanwhile, Josh was thinking if he really is ready for this.
He was, after all, someone who wanted to fight behind the court, because a physical clash hurt.
While drinking the soup that was placed in front of him, Josh thought more about it.
He will have to fight, beat people, break, and a lot of blood would pour.
He wasn't one of your online edge-lords. He was just a simple guy from Earth.
Just the idea of doing epic fights in real life made his heartbeat uncomfortably.
"One must always risk."
However, it would be a waste if he doesn't achieve what he can reach. Anyway, it's temporary.
*Drum* *Drum*
The peaceful guy whose last fight had been 6 years ago closed his eyes. the screen didn't vanish. One always must step forward.
'Damn it!'He screamed in his mind and chose Yes.
[Host chose to gamble. Congratulation.]
Opening his eyes, he saw the stall owner smiling.
"Did you like it?"
To the people outside, as they saw Josh's facial expressions, they thought he was immersed with the soup.
Josh just said thanks as he placed the money and left to go.
Now, he is committed to the task.
If there is one thing he would do now, it would be losing his virginity, at least, it would give him confidence for what's coming tomorrow.
One must die with no regrets.
— — —
Tomorrow.
Josh woke up on the bed. He was hugged by a rather bigger woman, who happened to be his boss, his face on her chest.
"Well, that was a good night."
"You are right."
She stretched up in the bed in the room which happened to be in the bar.
"You're quite strong for a boy," she said, looking at him again and touching his naked crotch.
Last night, Josh has been banging her, like it was probably the last thing he is going to do in his life.
"… thanks, I guess," Josh said as he leaned forward, stealing a kiss.
He knew that she made it clear it was a nightstand. However, he wanted to have as much of those feelings before going to the test of Baroque Works this morning.
"Hmm… is there something you want to tell me?" she asked, noticing that he wanted to say something.
"First, I'm going to find another job, a risky one at the sea," Josh admitted as he sat up.
Lana sat up as well and looked at him. Everyone has dreams. And Josh was just a passenger who had come here. She can't just make him stay if he wants to go.
"And the second."
Josh looked at her face. "Can we have orals? I mean, you lick me, I lick you. It was quite…"
Lana hit his head. "You're quite bold, aren't you?"
Josh just shrugged his shoulder. "So what if I am."
"You may start with my chest."
Josh just smiled and leaned forward.
"But what if I get pregnant." She stopped him all of a sudden as she put a hand on his chest.
"I will take care of the child if I stayed alive." Josh didn't deny the responsibility
"You know, bars don't operate in the morning usually." Smirking, Lana leaned back and opening her legs. "How about another round."
-x-X-x-
'Now, if I died, I will die with no regrets.'
Josh was walking to the other side of the island, to one beach. He was now full of confidence.
When he arrived there, he met a ship which was waiting for him and other guys and girls. Most of them were bulky and muscled.
'Don't let the size fool you. I'm more about quality than quantity.'
He thought to himself.
The ones one must take caution of are the small ones.
If Coby, who is a head shorter than him could become as strong as Vice Admiral, so Josh can reach that level.
He went inside one ship with the people around, and then, they moved to one specific testing location.
-x-X-x-
Josh soon found himself on another island, a small one.
In the middle, stood up one man, who happened not to be around 175 cm tall, thin, and not looking scary at all.
His hair shape was quite strange. It made the number five.
The guy was wearing up glasses, and Josh could see the resembles between him and a drawing version of him.
'Mister Three!'
He thought, surprised.
This man, who was explaining to them the rules of the test, was one of the characters of One Piece.
However, now, he looked like Mister Five.
'Seems he didn't promote yet.'
Josh thought.
He then looked around, to see what kind of people who are here for the test.
He suddenly paused, as his brain told him to stop.
There was one very hot Blonde woman standing while holding an umbrella.
She had a short neck length blond hair, green eyes, pale skin, a small nose, and a very sexy hourglass shape, with double D big breasts. She was quite tall, around 178 cm, with heels, she was few centimetres taller than him.
'Wait…' After taking his time analysing the hot woman, his mind gave him a piece of information — Other than her chest's size, her long neck's smoothness, and her body's softness, he saw a resemblance between her and a draw of a character in one piece.
"So, the test is to fight, and the last bunch of people would be selected to join the force," she said, her smile was big, and her teeth were bright. "I'm excited, kyahahaha…" she was laughing in excitement.
'Miss Valentine, or Mikita. I don't want to mess with her in tests. No one wants to mess with crazy bitches.'
Although the girl is cute and so hot, he knew he has no chance, even with the strength he has. He needed to avoid her, for now.
Josh, when their eyes met, she just stared at him. He nodded before looking at now, Mister Five.
"Now guys, since you know the rules, you can fight. Only those who make it after fifteen minutes would be selected to join the Baroque works.
"You have twenty minutes to prepare yourselves. All the weapons and means are allowed, so think well about your strategy."
Not only they were evaluating their strength, but their ability to think in situations like this.
The hair that was making 5's shape lit up with fire like a candle, creating wax in front of the hair's owner, letting him slide over to the edge of the island, where he can observe how things are going.
