• Contestants Part 1
{ White Void }
Suddenly, in the entire space filled in the white haze, a silhouette of a being started to form. The forming wasn't rushed, seemingly adding tension to the atmosphere.
This being was the individual that was responsible for Cain and the other contestants. This entity is called Jester!
Right in front of him was a small, rounded glass that has a black fog inside it, Jester grabbed it with his right hand as he stared at it intensely as if he was prophesizing the future.
'What a pity. I didn't expect almost half of the people I've chosen has died this early. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined' chuckled in an amusement tone.
However, he gasped exaggeratedly as he then covered his mouth as he gained information on what was the cause of the unfortunate demise of these chosen people.
Apparently, some of the people had died at birth due to either disease, miscarriage, or being left alone by their parents without care. Or had become slaves when they were a child due to their parents selling them or incompetent parents in debt resulting in them being killed by the unstable mines, being whipped badly, starved to death, or killed by trying to escape.
Lastly, there has been a rare few individuals that had become overconfident and arrogantly shown their potential as a kid for being smart when in reality, they weren't actually a child mentally causing Jester to smirk in disdain.
And so these arrogant contestants had been rewarded with either poison, due to their 'potential' in the mind of the denizens of the One Piece world. Or being used as a sacrificial being and killed as they were thought to be a dangerous omen.
The entity shook his head disappointedly as he starts to question himself if they will actually succeed in the mission he has given and become the God of the World next to him.
He honestly wouldn't mind another powerful friend.
'Now let's see if there are any promising candidates?'
Instantly, there was a small, blue panel that teleported in front of Jester and the glass disappeared as a result.
There were many letters and numbers written on it. The entity glanced at it for a moment and once again gasped exaggeratedly.
"~Isn't that a bit too fast and too overpowered? Scary~"

It had been obvious that the entity was immediately overjoyed as he randomly laughed hysterically and repeatedly muttered under his breath that the world will most likely be obliterated if they all fought in their prime and mastered their power but he didn't care.
'I guarantee there will be much chaos and uproar in this world. Oh, how I wish this had happened to me when I was such a weakling. How disappointing.'
Ignoring the strongest individuals that were in the top ten, he knew the others weren't weak as well and might even be unpredictable.
But according to the system, the individual in the first place is way more powerful than the third place.
Only the individual in second place was close in terms of [ Devil Fruit], [ Haki ], and their physical strength.
'Don't disappoint me, my friends.'

~ North Blue
Sitting at the top of the cliff, there can be seen a healthy child with a round face and light hair on the top of his head.
His eyes are deep blue, reflecting back the sea and his knees touching each other as he put his arm atop of them.
Suddenly, there was a small child running toward him, and from the looks of it, she seemed exhausted as she called out.
"Why are you always coming here? This is too far from home." whined his sister exaggeratedly as she has an annoyed expression on her face.
"Well, the sea is beautiful, isn't it? It always managed to calm my nerves," replied Dexter as he smiled and suddenly looked toward his sister as he grinned, exposing his pearly teeth.
"Anyway, I can't wait to meet the people that Dad is bringing to us," muttered the child as he grinned creepily sending off a dangerous vibe.
"You're doing it again, brother. You need to stop that. It's creepy"

[ Oda Nobunaga]
~ West Blue
At the moment, it was night-time as you can see the moon shining beautifully, and yet there can be heard of noisy bustling sounds located practically everywhere in this city.
Especially when it came to supermarkets and entertainment houses such as brothels.
In this bustling city, there is a sparkling, gold castle that spiked toward the sky to the point you couldn't see its end unless you had special transportation or fly there.
It screamed noble and was absent of noise despite many soldiers guarding the gate, doors, and the like.
Inside the mansion, there is a man leaning back as if relaxing on the golden throne and behind it were many statues of beautifully made peacocks.
He has a pale skin complexion and muscular build, as well as silver-white hair that is combed down back to his middle back as well as gold earrings in his ears.
"Tell me, what is my youngest child doing at the moment?" questioned the man in a flat tone as he titled his head, putting his hand against his cheek.
Suddenly, the voice came out behind the throne in an informant manner as it kneeled down. Wearing arm guards, a flat black jacket, and a porcelain mask that was fashioned to resemble a wolf with a triangular marking on the top.
"Currently training his swordsmanship with others in the dojo, my Lord."
The man in the throne's mouth twitched in an annoying manner as he sighed exhaustingly.
After all, no matter how much he tries, his youngest son will still focus on training his swordsmanship and become the best at it.
What he had wanted was for his youngest child to take over his position due to his gifted intellectual and wisdom but the child refused without hesitation as he claimed the tradition must stay the same no matter what.
The tradition was to pass their position over to their oldest son. But quite frankly, his oldest child was disappointing, to say the least, and he would rather pass it to his second child.
Currently, at the dojo, there was a child sitting in the line along with other children that seemed to be much older than him but strangely didn't mind him as if they were used to it.
'I had never imagined this swordsmanship would be so advanced in this world. I will definitely become the best swordsman in the world this time.'

[ Hanzo Salamander]
~ Paradise Grand-line
There is an island that never stops raining lightly and it was a huge turn-off for tourists and people that were interested at first living there.
In the forest on the rainy island, there was a small child with sickles on his hands and a mask that was made for his small face.
On his chest currently was surprisingly a small salamander that he encountered luckily on this island and had cared for ever since.
At the moment, he was lying down on the massive leaf with a small salamander on his chest which he didn't mind since it wasn't heavy for him.
He was half-naked which was concerning since it was raining and he was lying down on the wet leaf.
Once again, he didn't mind and probably preferred that rather than wearing clothes.
There can be seen a massive unsightly purple scar from his chest down to his waist and if not covered, practically anyone could see it and might likely vomit from the looks of it as it was ghastly.
'It's time to leave this island. I hope the next land has promising poisons that I've no idea of' mused Hanzo as he stroked the salamander gently on his chest as it purred softly.

~ South Blue
A town where the bandits and pirates nestled, where thievery and prostitution remained as the number one profession, where the homeless and drunk loitered the streets as killings, rapē, and gambling remained rampant throughout the day.
There is a massive villa located in the West of the city and it was bustling during the night-time as you can see numberous females and men coming in and out.
One of the rooms inside hosted two individuals that were separated by a few feet away.
One of the individuals was a stunning lady currently wearing a lace nightdress where you can practically see her hard, rounded, and pink nipples as she poses seductively.
In front of her was a man that was built like a gigantic bodybuilder with scars almost everywhere on his chest and face sitting on the table lewdly glancing at her.
She walked slowly toward him and she then went behind him. Covering the man's eyes with her hands, she mischievously smirked with her sparkingly eyes.
"Why you covering me eyes, Luv? You got a surprise for me or something?" questioned the man as he playfully smirked with an amused tone.
"Of course, darling. Do you mind being patient in a sec?"
In response, the man raised his hand as he waved a bit showing his acceptance. With a curious expression on his face, he thought of many scenarios that might happen later making him turn on as he couldn't help it.
A moment has passed, there can be seen a small child that seemed to be a girl behind him and suddenly she touched his back causing him to turn around with the lady's hands off him.
The man couldn't help looking down noticing it was a child dampening his mood as he didn't obviously didn't like this if it is what he think it is.
He was about to question angrily at the older female but couldn't help gaze at the child's organs of sight and abruptly, he rolled his eyes back making them white as if he had died mentally.
{ Compulsion }
The girl opened her mouth in an eery manner as she capture his attention and used her { Devil Fruit } to control the man as she has plans for him. The older lady smirked at this scene as she walked back and jumped on the bed.
"Your { Devil Fruit } are amazing. I'm so jealous. Anyway, what are you going to do this time? He's the vice-captain of one of the most influential pirate crews in this area. We are screwed if you don't have a plan, young lady." informed the lady as she stared at the kid that screamed innocence but knew better than to not believe that appearance.
The girl has long blonde hair and a hearty face with shimmering green eyes, pearly white teeth with pink lips. She was currently wearing a small white dress and held a cute teddy bear.
She glanced back at the lady with similarily sparkling eyes as she smiled a bit.
"Don't worry, mum. I know what to do."
