Chapter Begins:
Kai's sight got taken over by the densest blue flashes possible, and when the color receded, he found himself standing in a secluded alley.
The very first thing that hit him was the smell.
It was the smell of fruits mixed with the nauseous odor of overflowing sewers. Then there was the odd mixture of rum's flavor in that odor.
But when the last smell approached, it overpowered all.
Sea!
The fragrance of salty wind had not vanished from Kai's mind, despite the Pokemon World's retribution.
At some level, he had already made his peace with it.
Now, this retribution was something he would just have to deal with now and then, until finding a permanent solution to this problem.
No reason to fear stepping into the sea.
If it wasn't for the pressing matter of Identity Period, Kai would have rather faced retribution in the Harry Potter world there and then.
No matter how and what Kai felt, time remained important, especially with the limit of 3 days on his dimensional jump.
Like his previous jump to the Steins;Gate world, when Kai looked down at himself, he found the System had already changed his clothing.
He was wearing seamen's clothes; plain and airy.
There was a white shirt on his body, tattered and sewed. Half of the shirt's buttons were open, letting one see his chiseled chest and the several scars on it.
On his waist was a red scarf, and under that, he was wearing knee-length pants.
Kai lifted his hand and pressed down on his head, finding a crude straw hat over it. Under the shadow of the hat's brim, his slitted, hazel eyes glinted gold.
Selene's misty form took care of that, clouding the slits with a silverish haze.
The notification appeared then.
…
[
In the Switched World, Pirates of the Caribbean, the Contestant will be subjected to an Abnormality Limiter.
You have access to Switch World Timer as per your privilege.
Once the limit of 3 days is crossed, Chaos will start deducting your Mission Credits.
Once all Mission Credits run out, you will be thrown out of the Switched World.
…
Timer: 72:00:00
Current Time: 07:00 am
Current Location: Port Royal
]
…
Suddenly, a black bar appeared in front of him.
Kai had already expected its arrival, though.
Pirates of the Caribbean wasn't as unknown to the magic as the Game of Thrones world Kai had been to before, but supernatural events were still an uncommon sight for ordinary citizens.
However, it didn't change the fact that the world Kai had arrived at was way more familiar with the presence of magic than Manaless worlds.
That's why this Abnormality Limiter wasn't the same as others, either.
Even though the name was the same, Meg had already let Kai know that this Abnormality Limiter's sensitivity was around 75% less than the one he'd experienced in the world of Game of Thrones.
This meant Kai enjoyed greater freedom in using his Abilities and Skills here.
It didn't mean that he could just start flying in the skies over people's heads now.
That would just be stupid and courting death. Nothing more.
Time remained the prime issue for Kai, nonetheless.
If I am to take the main storyline of the Curse of the Black Pearl movie into consideration, Kai's mind raced, walking towards the main alley, then Jack Sparrow will arrive at Port Royal two days later and the Black Pearl will strike that very night. I don't have a second to waste. Before Jack's arrival, I must get my cards ready and in place as soon as possible.
Kai pressed down his hat and entered the main alley.
He had already gained a general map of the Port Royal from Meg, so it didn't take him long to figure out his actual location and where he must go now.
…
"Tar! Ahoy! Brother, we apply the best! Only a shilling!"
"Did you hear about that lass getting promoted?!"
"Who? Norrington-something-ass?!"
"Shhh! Pipe it! The port's not the same as before, mate."
…
"Hey!" one of the wenches winked at Kai, trying to take a peek at his face. "Only a shilling for you."
The main route was full of drunkards, merchants going about their business, and half-awaken seamen still dreaming about the cunt they had last night.
Where there were hundreds of taverns and vast slums, it would be a miracle if one could remember faces.
Yet, some faces were bound to stand out even then.
Kai was just minding his business, his steps hurrying towards the Governor's mansion, when he suddenly paused.
His eyes widened, and his mouth opened and closed momentarily.
On the tavern's wall toward his left, there were several Wanted posters, some fresh, and some faded with time.
One of the fresh posters was almost glowing with the darkest ink possible.
The poster showcased a bloody face with white hair swaying wildly in the background. There was such a grin on this person's face that it unnerved the onlookers.
But it was his eyes that shook the gazes.
Hazel. Reptilian. Demonic.
The word WANTED was towering like sturdy pillars over the portrait, and under the figure, the words DEAD OR ALIVE were written in bold letters.
Red!
With a bounty of 13,000,000 Berries, he adorned the tavern's wall like a piece of jewelry.
Kai's mouth pressed into a thin line and his steps grew springs.
The bounty in Berries was something only he and other Contestants could see.
For the storyline Characters, this amount must have been translated into local currency, Kai knew. This thought, however, didn't bring him any joy.
Kai couldn't afford a chase from the marines of the Royal Navy.
Not now when any careless step could comprise his plans.
It didn't seem the case, but Kai had come to this world for many things, and not only for Jack Sparrow's Compass.
First, he wanted to see if the Pokemon World's Retribution would follow him into a Switched World as well if he hadn't experienced it in the Main Mission's World before.
The second reason was related to the fact that this Random World was known as Artifact Land among Contestants.
Any random Contestant could obtain some Artifacts here.
Much less needed to be said about a Glitched Contestant, who could use his Privilege and create missions related to the major storyline Characters.
There was an even more important reason, but this wasn't the time to think about it.
Suddenly, Kai collided with a drunken man.
"Hey! Watch yeh steps, yeh fucker!" the man cursed.
"Sorry," Kai apologized.
The man snorted and marched off, disappearing into the crowd.
After a few minutes, this man suddenly frowned and spat. "Fucker didn't have a single coin. Tch!"
He was a thief!
While brushing his shoulders, he had tried to pick Kai's pockets. However, he couldn't find any money, making him curse.
As a habit, the thief slapped his right hand over the hidden pocket of his pants.
It was then his eyes became bloodshot.
"You twatting buggard! My money!!"
…
Kai weighed the sack of coins in his palm and let out a frown of his own.
Not much, he complained. A few more should do the trick.
By the time Kai reached his first destination, he had already stolen enough money to last for 3 days.
