AN:- THIS Chapter IS MAKING SOME THEORIES CANON, SO JUST THINK OF THIS AS AN AUTHOR'S UNIVERSE (AU). IF ODA REVEALS INFORMATION THAT CONTRADICTS WHATEVER I HAVE COOKED UP, THEN IT AIN'T MY FAULT. UNTIL THEN, LET ME COOK. ANYWAYS, HOPE YOU GUYS ENJOY Chapter 48.

[PREVIOUSLY ON GAMER PIECE] 

"The first twenty were 20 royal families who joined together to fight against the 'Great' Kingdom. They were known as the 'Alliance.' After defeating the kingdom, all the families went to Mary Geoise and settled there, except the Nefatari family." Rai's eyebrow raises, making him question something else.

"What IS the Great Kingdom?" Everyone, not only the Whitebeard Pirates, but the entire world comes closer to listen in, as they have realized it—this is information about the Void Century.

"The Great Kingdom is—"

[1ST POV]

"-I am going to be using this stamp ON them."

Rather than horror that I wanted, Rosward is enraged, pulling out his gun and aiming at me. I look at it indifferently, still having my grin as I ask the first question.

"So, what is it that makes you so...different from us lowly creatures?-"

*BANG*

The bullet hits me, before dropping down without any wound of mine showing, already healed from the damage I just suffered. I get a kitchen knife from my inventory, twirling it around as I see Rosward's face turn into horror as he realizes that bullets don't work on me.

HIDDEN QUEST CREATED

TRUTH OF THE WORLD

You have a family of the Celestial Dragons in your grasp, make them tell you and the world about the secret that the WORLD has hidden from everyone.

Rewards:- ??? (Depends on the impact of the information.)

ACCEPT (Y)/ REJECT(X)

"Let's do an experiment shall we?" I sit on top of Shalria's back, making her fall on the ground, me still sitting on her like she is a chair. Rosward turns red in anger, but I hold onto Charlos's arm as I slice the arm with my knife, making Charlos bleed and wake up, screaming like a bitch.

"AHHHHHHHHHHH-" I stomp on his neck, destroying his sound box by precise moments using my skill . Charlos has his mouth opened in pain, but no sound goes off. Both Shalria and Rosward look on, horrified as I look at the blood on the knife, examining it curiously.

"So, no different blood from normal humans. Just what is it that makes you guys different from us?" I spin the knife, pointing it towards Charlos's eyeballs. Rosward's eyes almost pop out of his skull, as Shalria tries to wiggle from my butt being on her, but she cannot move, unfortunately smelling my ass.

"Well, if no answer is given, I might have to check it myself. What about the eyes, is it something special-" As I bring the sharp knife closer to a terrified Charlos's face, Rosward screams-

"STOPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!" Rosward screams his heart out as I stop the knife right in front of Charlos's face. Charlos already peed his pants, and by the smell, Shalria also peed her pants. Charlos gets knocked out due to the horror of the situation.

"DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHO YOU ARE MESSING WITH? ADMIRALS, GOD KNIGHTS, AND EVEN THE FIVE ELDERS WILL MAKE SURE YOU ARE ERASED FROM HISTORY!!!" Rosward exclaims to me in both arrogance and anger, believing every single word coming out of his own disgusting mouth.

I grin, deciding to use that in order to coax him to reveal some 'truths'.

"Oh, and why would the Marines do that to me?" I grin mockingly at him, making him even more pissed off. He starts spewing nonsense.

"Because I SAID SO!!" Jackpot. Now, all I need is to ask a small and simple question, and let the chaos unfold.

"Why?" As if I had personally mocked all of his ancestors during their time, Rosward starts parading about what the Marines truly are.

"Why? Because Marines are our dogs, and dogs listen to their owners." I try not to laugh like a madman seeing just how easily Rosward was manipulated into revealing the true nature of the World Government.

"Why?" I grin, unfortunately not able to control my excitement as this idiot reveals everything. As it taking challenge to me grinning at him, he starts blabbering.

"Because the World Government MADE the Marines to be our dogs. They might act like peacekeepers or justice or something, but their primary reason for being created is to enforce law and judgment of the World Government AND us, the Celestial Dragons."I really try, I really try not to laugh-

"Why?" My mocking grin pisses him off even more.

"Why? WHY? YOU STUPID MORGEL, DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND ANYTHING? MARINES WERE CREATED FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF ERASING ANYTHING THAT INCONVENIENCES THE CELESTIAL DRAGONS. THEY WERE MADE WITH THE ONLY REASON SO THAT THE WORLD GOVERNMENT CAN CONTROL THE WORLD LIKE THEY DID FOR THE PAST 800 YEARS."Rosward takes deep breaths, trying to catch his breath after shouting as this is the first time he has shouted this much.

"... why?" Rosward's eyes go red in rage, as he gets up and tries to attack me, but I slash through Charlos's cheek, making him awake as he screams in pain, for the first time in his life feeling such pain.

"Wa-Wait-"

"WHY is it that Celestial Dragons are known as gods while normal people are commoners, and are assumed to bow down to you guys every single time? WHAT is the reason for it?" I have a nonchalant grin, twisting my knife over Charlos's face. I notice that Charlos has gotten himself knocked out once again, due to him being scared to the point he even shit himself.

Even Shalria too now that I notice it.

"I'll an- I'll answer, just stop what you are doing." I spin the knife once again, pointing at Charlos, grinning. I motion for him to explain WHY he is superior, as THAT was my question anyways.The other information he revealed is not what I ASKED, he gratefully gives it to me, and the whole world.

"We Celestial Dragons are the descendants of the First Twenty, the people who created the World Government. They were basically gods who created this world, and as their descendants, we own this world. The Morgels owe us for their meaningless lives, but they are arrogant enough to assume they have the right to rebel against the very same people who gave them this life-"

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Shalria screams in pain as I stab my knife in her thighs, making Rosward stop his speech, horrified. I look at Rosward without any expression, my excitement gone. At this point, games are over.

"From now on, you are going to answer EVERY single question I have. If you don't, both your son AND your daughter will feel what the prisoners of Impel Down feel regularly. Capiche?" I turn my head to the side, still staring at him. Rosward finally musters up some courage to talk-

"L-Look, the Marines won't-"

*STAB*

"Grugh~" Charlos moans in pain as I have stabbed the knife in his throat, still looking at Rosward whose eyes go ballistic, he collapses to the ground, his legs not able to sustain the horrifying truth that-His son is dead.

"I TOLD you. Answer my questions, and they WON'T feel pain. YOU are the reason that your son is ALMOST dead." Rosward starts breathing heavily as he realizes that if he just did what he was told, his son would not have almost died-

Wait, almost?

"I won't give you another chance like this, so take this as your last chance and explain EVERYTHING I ask." I remove the knife from Charlos's almost dead body and give him a potion from my inventory, healing him right up. Charlos coughs, taking a breath which makes Rosward exhale in relief.

".....Sigh, fine then. You want your children to die-" I spin my knife as I go to stab Shalria, but Rosward raises his hand towards me in panic.

"WAIT!!! WAIT-!, I'll- I'll tell you everything you want. So stop doing-" Rosward's eyes glisten in horror, fearful of his children's safety. He had raised them since they were children, even though he personally didn't like their Celestial mother, as she was fat as fuck.

"Please." I grin, making him stop in his tracks. Rosward looks like a blinking owl, not knowing what to do, so I explain in detail.

"YOU-" I throw my knife at Rosward, cutting his cheek and popping his head bubble, letting blood come out of his cheek. My face is emotionless, making him intimidated as I summon another kitchen knife.

"When you request someone to NOT do something, you need to say please. What? The gods never had any proper manners? Just how pathetic are you guys?" Rosward understands the meaning of my words, and he looks at me in rage-

But all of that rage goes out of the window when he sees me twirling the knife in my hands, looking at Charlos, who is kept down on the ground using my leg. I am basically sitting on Shalria and resting my legs on Charlos, while Rosward bows before me.

The true definition of king, I might add.

".....p-Plea-Please stop h-hurting my children." Rosward grits his teeth, but exclaims his plea out loud, trying his hardest not to upset me, as I have his kids' lives in my hands. While I could push him more by making him kowtow in front of me, I decide to continue on with my quest.

"So, what IS the First Twenty anyways?" A bloody Rosward explains his definition of the twenty to the world.

"The First Twenty were 20 royal families who joined together to fight against the 'Great' Kingdom. They were known as the 'Alliance.' A 'Great War' happened, and after defeating the kingdom, all the families went to Mary Geoise and settled there, except the Nefatari family." My eyebrow raises, making me question something else.

"What IS the Great Kingdom?" I can feel the suspense of the question, as Rosward's eyes widen in horror. All I do is just spin my knife, making Rosward answer it hastily.

"The Great Kingdom is an ancient kingdom that was said to be vast, proud, and powerful. I don't know the kingdom's name, but what I do know is that the kingdom's technology was so advanced that even Vegapunk can only replicate." I nod, acting as if I understand what I am saying, while opening Google and fact-checking all Rosward is saying.

Fact Checking is important after all. i don't want to be like those dumb american sterotypical People who sprout nonsense without kniwing the entire facts.

"The 'Alliance' defeated the kingdom due to its threat. The Great Kingdom had access to the Ancient Weapons, and they have caused so much damage to the point that islands have been divided." I blink, seeing my window to see if it is correct. While it hasn't said anything like that, it has been implied. But now, Rosward is confirming it.

I don't know if it is true or not, but any information is better than no information.

"What do you mean, divided?" Rosward takes a deep breath, and if it was an indicator of sorts, the entire world also takes deep breaths with Rosward.

"The 'Alliance' and the 'Great' Kingdom had a war lasting 100 years. During that time, the Ancient Weapons of legends, Pluton, Poseidon, and Uranus were used. These weapons had the ability to destroy the world, and it somewhat did. The Great Kingdom was split apart into pieces, and that is where the commoners-"

I look at Rosward in annoyance, spinning my knife, making him stutter before continuing.

"-the people are currently living, the pieces of a once great continent." I nod, checking it. It seems that Vegapunk said the same thing, but Rosward confirmed the possibilities that Vegapunk said in canon. (The pieces of the once great continent, Ancient weapons being used, etc).

"Hmm, then what about the Ancient weapo- you know, that is something that should be hidden in my humble opinion. So next question, these so-called 'creators,' why did they form an alliance to fight against the Great Kingdom?"

I have a theory, and I want to confirm it.

"The Great Kingdom was a threat to the world, ruling with the Ancient Weapons. But, the Alliance stopped them, liberating the world and giving it freedom. After that, the Alliance became the World Government and enforced laws so that they could salvage the world which remains of the war. They created the World Governments and the Marines, making sure that-"

"-Everyone would view them as the creators of this world, making them gods. The Marines were just people who were dogs so that they could be ordered around by your wishes." Rosward is surprised that I intercepted him, but I ask the next question.

"WHY did you guys, except the Nefatari Family, relocate to Mary Geoise?" Another theory question, as nothing had been confirmed yet. But, it is a general acceptance that-

"w-well, it is because the Red Line is the highest peak of the current world, so we had to relocate there." I blink, surprised. So just because they wanted to look down at people like gods, they went to the highest peak of the world?

That can't be it, right? It might also make sense that Rosward wouldn't know the TRUE reason. The existence of Imu is nonexistent, maybe Imu became a ruler WITHOUT the other 19 royals knowing? Most probably.

That means that I should take everything he says with a grain of salt.

"What did the Red Line look like before you guys occupied it?" I ask a curious question, more or less my theorist side coming out. While I know these are stupid questions, I am waiting for the last question until I-

"There used to be a Kingdom of Gods, where a 'Tribe' of so-called gods used to reside, Lunarians. After the war, Lunarians were persecuted due to their affiliation with the Ancient Kingdom, leading to us eventually occupying the land, which became Mary Geoise." I nod, so King's race was hunted by the World Government, which makes sense as there is still a bounty on the existence of Lunarians.

"Okay, what do you know about the Void Century and the century-year-old war that plagued this world? Anyone of note who fought this war?" Rosward's eyes widen, but as he sees my twirling knife, he genuinely tries to remember all he knows.

"I-I don't know anything about that. We didn't need to know information about a century that was laced with war-"

I interrupt him, deciding to put a little pressure on him.

"What are Poneglyphs and why do the World Government want everyone NOT reading it?" Rosward's eyes widen again, not expecting my questioning to shift its tone. He stutters, but answers perfectly.

"B-because it contains information about the Ancient Weapons, weapons of mass destruction. If it falls into public hands-"

"And?" I entice him to reveal more by putting pressure on him, basics of an interrogation. Rosward looks scared for his life, meaning that my interrogation tactics are working.

"U-uh, it also contains knowledge about the Void Century." I smile, making him smile in relief. I think of what else to question, since I am saving the final question for last-

"You know, I am noticing the similarity between the 'Alliance' and the 'Revolutionary Army.' Both of you guys were/are revolting against a government body, whether it be the Great Kingdom or the World Government-" Rosward's eyes look at me in rage for even mentioning this point.

"WE ARE NOTHING LIKE THOSE UNWANTED MORGELS WHOSE WIFE LEFT THEM-"

"and I am nothing like Normal people if you INTERUPT me ONE. MORE. TIME!" This time, I stab the other thigh of Shalria, making her scream in pain. Rosward stays silent as I take out another one of the potions and make her drink it, healing her back to full health.

"Now, two more questions." I raise two fingers, making Rosward look stiff.

"The Five Elders, just how many years have they been a government body of the world? From what I know, they have been alive since Garp was sucking on his mother's tits, and he is old as fuck. How old are they anyways?" Rosward blinks at this unexpected question, and for the first time in his life, he starts calculating of all things.

"Uh, from what I know, they have been in the seat for over.....400 years?" Rosward looks confused as to his own calculations, so he mumbles all the events where the elders were personally present.

"Jaygarcia Saturn-sama was present when the big robot attacked our home. Saint Shepard Sommers is the descendant of Saint Ju Peter, but Saint Sommers is even older than me. Then there are the descendants of the other elders, all older than me.-" He looks up, making me raise an eyebrow at his mumbling. I made sure to zoom in to capture his mumblings.

"Well, I don't know myself." I sigh, but shrugging as I don't particularly care about the age situation. I was just passing time, stretching the last question as long as possible.

"The final question, what is the name of the 'Great' Kingdom?"

Everything stops, as Rosward looks at me, and in that instance, I know that Rosward knows the answer to my question. He looks hesitant, so I do what I do best-Point my knife towards Charlos.

Rosward's eyes widen, but he is still hesitant.

*STAB*

I stab Charlos right in the eye, making him scream like a bitch. Shalria and Rosward's faces grow horrified, as I hold the knife with a grin on my face, seemingly enjoying it.

But by God, my acting skill is really the MVP of this interrogation, to the point that-

DUE TO CONTINUOUS ACTIONS, NEW SKILL HAS BEEN ACQUIRED

"Y-You-" I twist the knife, making Charlos scream more, his voice going hoarse with the amount of screaming he is doing, while I look into Rosward's eyes, still having a carefree grin.

"F-Fine, please, please don't hurt my-"

"Bow down." That single word stops him from doing everything, looking at me incredulously. I shrug, looking at Charlos who has his one eye trained at me, completely scared for his life.

"Blame your father, not me." With that, I literally push the knife upwards, slicing through Charlos's eye to his brain, completely slicing his head in two, removing my blade. Rosward's eyes go bonkers, his breath stopped as he sees his son's cold dead body, bleeding out his blood and brain matter. I censored this in the livestream as I don't want kids to have a nightmare, even adults.

I might be deranged, but I haven't become a monster, yet.

I twist the knife in my hands, as I get up, yanking Shalria's horrified head as I point the knife in her throat, looking at Rosward with an emotionless expression.

"This is the third and final warning, do as I say, and your chi- I mean, your daughter lives." Rosward's face flashes through a lot of emotions - anger, horror, anguish, fear - he even pisses himself. I wrinkle my nose, noting that even Shalria pisses herself-

Seriously, just why are they pissing so much?

"F-Father!" Shalria is scared out of her life, and she pleads her father to save her. And surprisingly, he does what every father should do-

Beg.

"P-Please, just spare us. Please!" Rosward gets on his knees, and puts his head down, bowing in front of me, begging me to save his life. I grin, letting the grip on the knife loosen as I put it away, still holding onto Shalria.

"What. Is. The. Name. Of. The. Great. Kingdom?" I repeat the question once again, this time asking it as if I am asking it to a child, and even though Rosward might be angry with me, swearing revenge against me, which might last for generations, he does answer.

"T-The Great Kingdom's name w-was-" Rosward sweats to tell the name, and I dramatically sigh, raising my hand as I tell Shalria some words of comfort-

"Remember, your dad is the reason-"

"THE ROMANCE DAWN, THE NAME OF THE GREAT KINGDOM WAS ROMANCE DAWN!" Rosward screams the name of the ancient kingdom, and I look at him in surprise. So much in fact that my grip on Shalria slips. Noticing this, Shalria rushes out of my grip and runs to her father, who immediately hugs her, relieved.

"Ha-ha-" I try not to laugh, I really try.

"CHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"

The same name as the first Chapter of the manga. The same name as what One Piece was initially supposed to be titled. The same name with which Oda Sensei created 2 versions of, before settling on One Piece.THAT name is seriously the name of the Great Kingdom?

"CHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"

Oda Sensei, you are a GOD.

-----------------------------------------------

"You know, killing three World Nobles is going to make the World Government target you and your descendants for their entire existence." A relatively slim and tall woman with short black hair, with two tufts pointing upwards, smokes a cigarette. I grin at her, shrugging it off.

"Come on Shakky-san, as much chaos I can create, the better." Luffy chuckles as all of us sit in Shakky's bar, drinking and eating after the entire facade.

After I killed Shalria and Rosward (Why would I spare them?), I came back to the real world and edited the livestream, escaping with Camie and even someone else.

An elderly man of relatively tall height with a very muscular build and tan skin. Two of his most distinguishing traits are his round glasses and facial hair, which is arranged embattled across his lower jaw. He also has a scar over his right eye, wearing a nearly plain t-shirt, shorts, and sandals.

Silvers Rayleigh is sitting next to me sipping on a drink with a carefree smile. He looks to me, making me look at him.
