On a desolate wasteland of wind-swept rock pillars, frigid gales howled like blades slicing through flesh.

Among the scattered stones, Law slowly awakened, finding himself lying on a barren cliff face. At first, he was stunned—but then tears welled up at the corners of his eyes.

It wasn't an illusion.

The Lord God truly existed!

Not long ago, when Black Zetsu and the others were pulled back to the Naruto world by Nawaki, Law had been left alone aboard the Navy warship.

After Doflamingo's departure, and unwilling to join the Marines despite escaping danger, Law chose to go his own way. He wandered alone, placing his hopes of resurrecting Corazon on that elusive, almost mythical existence—the Lord God.

After days of hardship and solitude, hearing that familiar, detached voice once more and waking to find himself in this barren land filled Law with indescribable excitement.

Just then, two other figures lying nearby also began to stir.

One was a young man with an X-shaped scar on his chin. The other, a dark-haired girl with sun-kissed skin.

"Drake!"

"Law?! What the hell—why are you here? What is this place?!"

The scarred boy jumped up in alarm—he clearly knew Law.

Indeed, the young man was X Drake, a survivor from Minion Island.

Back then, thanks to his small size, he'd miraculously slipped through Doflamingo's Birdcage and escaped to a Marine vessel. It was there he met Law, and the two struck up a connection.

The black-haired girl, on the other hand, didn't panic when she awoke.

She took two cautious steps back, glaring warily at Law and Drake like a wildcat cornered in an alley—eyes filled with danger and distrust.

Law was just about to speak when a calm, detached voice echoed in their ears.

[Welcome Reincarnators.]

[From this moment on, you will begin your journey through endless worlds. Here, you may encounter countless dangers—but as long as you keep fighting, you can gain everything you desire: longevity, power...]

As the Lord God's voice faded away, the three youths had vastly different reactions.

Law's eyes gleamed with excitement.

Drake was still in disbelief.

The dark-haired girl, though guarded, couldn't hide the flicker of hope behind her skeptical gaze.

The opening pitch was all too seductive.

Do you crave power?

No? Then wealth. Or revenge. Or maybe... there's someone you wish you could bring back.

As long as you're alive, desire will always exist—and Nawaki would exploit it.

Drake turned to Law, his voice wary.

"Law... you seem to know what's going on. Care to explain?"

"I don't know much more than you," Law replied with a nod. He didn't keep secrets and shared everything he'd learned.

Back when he first heard the Lord God's voice, Law hadn't been immediately pulled into the system, but he'd been granted access to some of its rules.

If he had to describe it... he was something like a beta tester. A semi-veteran?

A curious position to be in.

As for why Nawaki had chosen only three people this time—that too was deliberate.

After many reincarnator missions, Nawaki had discovered that three-man cells were the most efficient setup. They could tackle moderately difficult missions with higher survival rates, reduce freeloaders, and simplify reward distribution.

Too many members led to infighting, diluted rewards, and hindered newcomer growth.

Unlike other systems that tossed Reincarnators into death traps, Nawaki genuinely wanted his recruits to live long, loyal lives—slaving away for him indefinitely.

Death? That was too easy.

In truth, the three-man squad model from the shinobi world had proven highly adaptable.

Once Law finished explaining, and with the system interface visible to them, Drake and the girl finally got a rough understanding of how the system worked.

When they tried uploading content for their first exchange, there were no errors—despite the One Piece world lacking traditional "secret manuals" or "techniques."

The exchange system didn't depend on martial manuals. It extracted crystallized fortune or destiny from their knowledge or items.

So the three of them uploaded some unique knowledge, personal items, and fragments of fate—and earned their first batch of points.

A few hundred, to be exact.

Not much, but Nawaki hadn't expected miracles—after all, not everyone was born rich like Kushina.

When they spent their points for upgrades, their astonished voices rang out one after another.

"It's real... I can feel the strength flowing through me!"

"So this is how the Op-Op Fruit can be used. No wonder Corazon said what he did… Damn, I wish I had more points to unlock its full potential."

"That part of history… so this is what it truly meant. I misinterpreted it all this time…"

Each of them had gained something they yearned for.

But it wasn't enough.

Like a parched traveler offered just a sip, they were now thirstier than ever.

That's when Nawaki's carefully timed mission prompt appeared.

[Mission begins in five minutes.]

[Current World: Shinobi World]

[In this world, ninja fight using various "jutsu."

Five great nations rule the continent, with their respective ninja villages serving as military arms.

Currently, the Second Great Shinobi War is underway.

Kumogakure (Hidden Cloud) of the Land of Lightning has invaded the Land of Earth and is engaged in a bitter stalemate with Iwagakure (Hidden Stone). Their battle has raged for nearly four months.]

[Main Mission 1: Join an Iwagakure unit to ambush a Kumogakure supply team.

Reward: 300 points.]

[This is a rookie mission and cannot be refused. Failure results in erasure.]

[Note: Reincarnator identities have been adjusted for seamless integration into the mission.]

Erasure?

That chilling word sent a shiver down all three spines.

Suddenly, this Lord God didn't seem so benevolent.

Just as He'd warned—reincarnator missions weren't just opportunities; they were steeped in real danger.

Still, all three of them were the resolute type. Their hearts soon steadied.

To gain something, you must be willing to pay the price.

That was an undeniable truth—Nawaki had merely laid it all out plainly.

Unfair?

Nawaki wanted to defend himself: Only rookie and ascension missions are fatal upon failure!

Normal missions just dock points. Of course, if you lose too many points, your strength drops—and you will eventually die in the cycle.

But hey, that was on them.
