In your sixth year, you journey to the New World to hunt increasingly dangerous pirates. You stop at Dressrosa, where you uncover evidence of a relationship between Doflamingo and Kaido, as well as the hidden truth about the kingdom. You engage Doflamingo in a fierce battle, nearly defeating him. However, Marines, led by Kizaru, surround you. You threaten to escape and attempt to warn them about Doflamingo's true nature.
In your seventh year, you arrive at Onigashima. You witness a fight between Ace and Hanafuda. Instead of stopping them, you join the fray. You manage to kill Hanafuda and, after a tough battle, defeat Ace. Both you and Ace are injured. You spare him, and your sense of justice begins to shift.
After your wounds heal, you challenge Kaido to a fight. However, you must first face King. You lose the battle but manage to escape.
You receive news that Kuma has become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
You encounter Zephyr, who asks you to join his Marine faction. Due to differing beliefs about justice, you refuse his offer. Your bounty is now 300 million Berry."
In your eighth year, you encountered Kuma in East Blue and asked why he joined the Seven Warlords. Instead of an answer, he gave you a letter to deliver to his daughter, Bonney.
You traveled to the Sorbet Kingdom and presented the letter to Bonney. She was overjoyed and immediately called you 'Uncle.' She expressed a strong desire to accompany you, but you knew her true motivation was to see her father. Furthermore, it was too dangerous for her to follow, and her illness was still not healed. Aware that Alpha, a CP agent, had an unknown interest in Bonney, you refrained from revealing your knowledge to Bonney, opting instead for a discreet warning and a death threat directed at Alpha should she attempt to interfere with Bonney's well-being.
Before departing the Sorbet Kingdom, you promised Bonney you would return the following year, urging her to behave. You also instructed her that if she felt threatened or observed anything unusual, she should simply say 'Lazarus.' You had secretly implanted bubbles within Alpha's body, unbeknownst to her, which would activate upon hearing this word."
On your ninth year, you get news that Bonney has formed the Bonney Pirates. You're not angry, but rather pleased.
Then, you receive word that Ace was defeated by Blackbeard. He's been handed over to the Marines, who have set a date for his execution. Believing his execution to be unjust, you decide to save him.
On your way to Marineford, you stop at Sabaody Archipelago to meet with Bonney. There, you encounter not only Bonney, but also Kuma. You engage in a fight with Kizaru due to what happened to Kuma, it ended in a draw, even with Silvers Rayleigh's assistance.
During the Marineford war, you witnessed the clash between the Whitebeard Pirates, the Marines, and the Seven Warlords. In this altered scenario, not only did you succeed in killing Doflamingo, but you also rescued Ace. However, you still ultimately sacrificed yourself to protect Luffy.
A bitter satisfaction gnaws. Doflamingo's strings severed. Yet, a disquieting echo remains: Luffy. A nobody, a pirate, the catalyst for my own unraveling. Why this trembling fist, this foreign kindness? My justice, once an unyielding blade, now fractures under the weight of doubt. Pirates, villains, they were, weren't they? Then, why this aid, this unexpected compassion? A storm of confusion rages, a tempest of shattered convictions.
Was my path a lie? A future looms, a terrifying unknown, where my principles bend, perhaps break. How did I, the unwavering soldier of justice, become a harbinger of... this?
Why? Why would Zephyr, a pillar of the Marines, sacrifice his position for me? What bond, what debt, compels such a drastic act? It's a question that echoes, unanswered, leaving a chilling unease.
The Gold Simulation is throwing names at me like a storm. Kuma, that gentle pastor from the Sorbet Kingdom, that's his name. I knew him, I felt his kindness, but I never knew his name until now. And Doflamingo… that name sends a chill down my spine. The captain of the Donquixote Pirates, a name whispered with fear.
Darius and Haimon, they were there in the Bronze Simulation; their names appear in this simulation because I've seen and met them before.
But Zephyr?
I've never met him, never seen him. Yet, his name is as clear as day, etched into my awareness. Is this a glimpse into a future simulation? A ghost from a forgotten past? Or is the simulation revealing something I've completely blocked out? This clarity, this precision, is unsettling. It's like the simulation is peeling back layers of my mind, revealing things I didn't know were there, or things I wish weren't. The Gold Simulation is showing me the truth, and I'm not sure I like what I'm seeing.
Ding!, your Attribute before death: Endurance 209, Strength 187, Agility 260, Spirit 420.
Ding!, You Battle Skill before death: Sniper (master), Six Styles (Expert), Helmsman (Intermediate), Hand to Hand Combat (Master)
Ding! You Ability before death: Bubble-Bubble Fruit (Master)(note: devil fruit you can pick only one) , Observation Haki (Master), Armament Haki (Expert)
Choose one Attribute or Battle Skill or Ability to retain.
The digital 'Ding!' echoed, a spectral ledger of my past. 'Spirit 420? Master Sniper?' I muttered, a disbelieving chuckle escaping my lips. This is insane. Then, the abilities: Bubble-Bubble Fruit (Master), Observation Haki (Master), Armament Haki (Expert). My breath hitched.
'Only one, though it's a Gold Simulation?' I groaned, the weight of the choice pressing down.
This is a cruel joke. The playful, yet deadly, Bubble-Bubble Fruit, or the honed senses and impenetrable defense of mastered Haki? Each path shimmered with potential. A thought struck me. 'Zephyr,' I whispered, a flicker of hope igniting. He can teach me Haki.
The decision, though agonizing, became clear. 'The Devil Fruit,' I declared, a sense of resolve settling over me. The Bubble-Bubble Fruit. It's too unique and Observe how Bulla utilizes the Bubble-Bubble Devil Fruit before; I am quite envious of it ability, The Haki, while powerful, felt like a skill that could be reacquired, honed anew under Zephyr's tutelage. The Bubble-Bubble Fruit, a power I'd already seen, was a unique, irreplaceable treasure. The potential to wield it was too tempting to resist. 'I'll find Zephyr. He'll teach me Haki, and I'll surpass my future self in the simulation...' I'll be stronger than future of me in simulation.
