One Piece: The Cheapskate of the Straw Hats

Isekai_enjoyer
Usually when you get isekai-ed with a System, it is there to help you... keyword being usually and sadly for me... I am not among those usual system users. I have a scamming System. Now normally, you would think that the system would reward me after I scam people but that is not it... it scams me! The first scam that I fell for was having my memories of this world traded for a beginner's package. Thinking about it, I could have probably known of some treasure and used it to buy myself something that would make me overpowered... heck I could have even known where and what the One Piece is but now I don't, I'm broke and I have to hunt pirates to make a living. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Narrator: Follow the adventure of a cheapskate that joined the Straw Hat crew... Now, if one were to ask the straw hats what they thought about him here is some of their answers: Luffy- "He always has cool new stuff to show us." Zoro- "When it comes to being a money grabber, he might be Nami's soulmate." Nami- "Never leave money around him also if he ever agrees to pay within thirty minute of debate, chances are he just stole your wallet." Usopp- "Each times our bounty increase, he always think of selling us to the World Government!" Sanji- "For him paying is like having your arm ripped off. It's always funny watching him whenever he has to pay someone." Chopper- "I'm glad my bounty is low." Robin- "He is quite the enigma. You never know what is going on inside his head... outside of money." Franky- "Never have I seen a man, so strong, cry over spending money. I'm SUPER serious. He'd rather fight a Buster Call then spend a single Beli." Brook- "He is normally a chill guy... whenever money is not involved. Whenever money is involed well... The things I have seen would make your eyes pop... Hold on, I don't have eyes anymore cuz I am a skeleton. YOHOHOHO!" Jinbe- "It is quite sureal that he is not afraid to fight admirals or Emperor or even the World Government but trembles whenever he needs to spend his own money." If one were to ask the straw hat this question; Is he reliable? This is what nine out of ten would reply. "Nope, you never know what he is going to do especially if money is dangled in front of him." If one were to ask why they still let him on the crew, this is what all of them would reply. "If he says that he got your back and put money on it then... you don't even need to turn around, no enemy's attack will ever manage to land on you, because he is the Strongest." During the Summit War, faced with the threats of molten rocks falling from the sky, his words ignited the pirate's fighting spirit and inspired millions worldwide to set out to sea. "Everything that you thought had meaning: every hope, dream, or moment of happiness. None of it matters as you lie bleeding out on the battlefield. None of it changes what a molten rock does to a body, we all die. But does that mean our lives are meaningless? Does that mean that there was no point in us being born? Would you say that of your slain comrades that tried to rescue Ace? What about their lives? Were they meaningless?... They were not! Their memory serves as an example to us all! The courageous fallen! The anguished fallen! Their lives have meaning because we the living refuse to forget them! And as we head to certain death, we trust our successors to do the same for us! Why did you all chose to become Pirates? Was it just to fulfill your dreams?! NO! That was because TRUE PIRATES do not buckle or yield when faced with the cruelty of this world! True Pirates push forward! True Pirates scream out! True Pirates RAAAAAGE!" English is not my first language so there will be grammar error here and there. I do not own anything, outside of the MC's existance, from One Piece or any other anime/manga or source of fiction that will be used in this fic. Cover Image I made in https://www.imagine.art/

Married Off To A Cold Eyed Knight

What would you do if almost everyone around you saw you as a hindrance or not at all? What if your own father was one of those who wished you gone? That is the story of Rosemary's life. Ever since the death of her mother during accident where only she survived, Rose has felt useless. Despite her best attempts to ignore the hurtful glances and words of the royal court and her father, she can't help but feel like a wilted flower. It becomes so bad that she considers ending it all, until she is rescued by a handsome young man with cold violet eyes who promises to change her world. ---- Before long, I reached a stone bridge overlooking Kaguya river. Luckily for me, the place was empty at the moment. Although, would anyone have even bothered saving a wretch like me? At most, they probably would have just watched as I met my end in a moment of morbid curiosity. And as I stood at the edge, I remembered all the times I had cried. All the times I had hurt. But now, I was ready. I smiled as the wind whipped around me. It was time to end it. Turning around, I let my body fall backwards into the river. The sky was a sea of stars. The city lights around me sparkled like gems. It was so beautiful. For the first time in a long time, I felt a sense of calm wash over me. I didn't regret it. No, I had finally found the courage to stand up for myself in my very own way. The water was high, so the fall itself didn't kill me instantly as I had hoped. As the river enveloped me, I closed my eyes. This was the end of my journey. A journey full of misery and tragedy. If there was another life, I hoped it would be better than this one. "Sis!" I heard a voice scream. Orlin! My brother came for me? What was he doing here? Had he followed me? But why? Did he care about me? Or was it just pity? No, right? Surely at least one person in this world loved me. Why had I given up on myself so soon? I knew he loved me. Yet, I still went through with this stupid decision. I allowed those girls and Father's words inhibit my better judgment... "Sis, where are you? Rose! Please show yourself! I want to talk!" Ore yelled at the top of his lungs. Right, my life was not all misery and tragedy. There were faint glimmers of joy and hope left. Ore was a big part of that. How selfish of me... I was actually about to abandon my brother. I tried to resurface, but my swimming skills weren't the best. To make matters worse, the current was far too strong. If not for the current, I would have at least been able to dog paddle over to the edge with some effort. My right hand broke through the fierce waters and was yanked by another hand. I was pulled out of the murky depths and saw a pair of cold violet eyes staring back at me. Father? No, it wasn't him. Although, those eyes felt familiar. Before I could make out the face of my rescuer clearly, darkness swept over me. Was it too late? I didn't want to die... Not anymore!
