NOVEL NEXT Chapter 2: Rebirth
On a rainy night in New York City, in one of the slums, a boy around 8 years old was running away as fast as he could from four grown men, holding a loaf of bread in his hand.
"Boom," Suddenly a bolt of lightning fell from the sky and hit the boy directly, killing him.
To avoid another lightning bolt, all the men chasing the boy fled, shocked by what they had seen and fearing that another lightning strike would hit them this time instead of the boy.
______
In Island in the grandline
A woman was screaming in pain as she was giving birth. "AAAAHHHHH."
She was a woman in her twenties, with raven-long hair and a face reminiscent of a fairy descended from heaven.
She has plump, round breasts, a slender waist, and legs.
Her skin looked like a jade; it was so perfect that it made all women cry in jealousy
Next to the woman stood an old woman who was helping the pregnant woman give birth. "Come on, Sarah, you're almost done. I can see the head keep pushing."
"AAAAAHHHHHH, AAAAHHHHH, AAAAHHHHHH,"
After half an hour, the woman succeeded in giving birth, and the old woman carried the baby.
The baby was looking around in surprise and thought to himself, "Where am I? I am aware that a lightning strike killed me. Am I reincarnated?"
The woman who gave birth to the baby looked at it with hate. The baby was surprised when he saw this.
The old woman sighed when she saw this and said to the woman, "Sarah, this little boy is innocent despite who his father is."
When Sarah heard this, she became extremely angry and yelled at the old woman, "Take that evil spawn away, mother." I don't want to ever see him again."
The baby scowled mentally upon hearing this, while the elderly woman sighed and nodded before they departed from the house.
_____
After 3 hours
An old man entered the house and observed the elderly woman sitting on a sofa and the baby sleeping next to her.
The old man raised his eyebrow upon seeing the baby and inquired, "Sister, what is with the baby?"
The old woman sighed in sadness when she heard the old man's question and said to him, "This is Sarah's son; she hasn't named him. I want you to take him to an orphanage on another island. I fear that Sarah may murder this little boy.
When he heard this, the old man's eyes widened, and he sighed, "I guess she still harbored resentment over what happened when the pirate kidnapped her."
The old woman nodded, and the old man looked at the sleeping baby and said, "So this little guy is that pirate offspring."
The old woman sighed and nodded. "Yes, but this boy is innocent, big brother."
The old man nodded. "I know, sister, that I am not that narrow-minded." We'll take the boy to Commy Village in Shooting Star Island, which is far from here and probably has an orphanage."
The old woman nodded her head in satisfaction and handed the baby to her brother, who immediately left the village.
_______
7 years later
Shooting Star Island
Commy Village
Sunflower Orphanage
A boy who was 7 years old had blond, spikey hair. had blue eyes and fair skin. The boy was the abandoned son of Sarah. If anyone looked closely into his eyes, they would see they were full of intelligence.
The boy was named Van Noor D Oliver by the old man who brought him to the orphanage.
Oliver was currently sitting under the tree, staring at the clouds, and reflecting on his reincarnation.
"It has been 7 years since I was reincarnated after I died when I was struck by lightning. I am not the kind of person who believes in God, but I am really grateful to have a second chance in life." Oliver thought to himself.
He suddenly noticed three boys walking towards him: one was a fat boy, one was a short boy, and the last boy was a skinny boy.
They looked arrogantly at Oliver, and the fat boy said to him, "Move it, trash; this is my favorite spot, scram."
Oliver narrowed his eyes, but suddenly he heard a robotic voice in his head.
DING, CHOICE SYSTEM IS LOADING.
10%, 20%, 40%, 80%, 100%.
CONGRATULATION HOST THE CHOICE SYSTEM HAD SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED
Oliver was stunned when he heard the robotic voice in his head: "What the hell? What is going on?"
Calm down, host. You have been chosen as a host for the choice system; according to the choices you make in your second life, you will gain verious rewards.
Oliver was stunned when he heard this and asked, "How did you know this is my second life?"
I will explain everything later, but right now you have to make a choice, host, because you have two choices.
First choice: beat up these three boys, and you will be rewarded with innate strength physique
Second choice: listen to the boys and walk away; you will be rewarded with a calm heart.
Oliver was confused and asked, "What are the innate strength physique and calm heart?"
Some people are born with special bodies; we call them special constitutions. There are many types of these constitutions, and the innate strength physique is one of them.
The innate strength physique grants the owner of this constitution a strong body. Your body will be way stronger than those who are around your age, but that doesn't mean you will be invincible. Anyone can train hard to gain a strong body that may surpass the innate strength physique.
The advantages of possessing this constitution are that your body will get stronger faster than normal people when you train, and you will also recover from injuries way faster than others.
The only disadvantage you have in possessing this constitution is that you will be consuming a lot more food than you are now.
Oliver was taken aback upon hearing this, and the system proceeded to explain, "A calm heart is a special state." No matter what danger you face in the future, your heart will always be calm, and you will not be effected by fear and other emotions.
Oliver nodded his head and thought, "The innate strength physique is more practical than the calm heart. Those three are so annoying, so I should teach them to listen."
Oliver stood up and walked to the short boy. First he clenched his right fist and pulled back his right arm, then he punched the short boy in the face.
"AAAAHHHHH."
The short boy fell into the ground, clenching his nose, and he started sobbing.
The fat boy and the skinny boy were surprised, but Oliver used their surprise expression to his advantage. He charged at the fat man, and he started throwing punches and kicks as fast as he could.
The fat boy curled on the ground and started sobbing, "Please stop. I am sorry."
Oliver looked at the fat boy with disdain and turned his head towards the skinny boy. The skinny boy was frightened when Oliver looked at him.
The skinny boy turned around to run away, but Oliver grabbed the skinny boy's arm. The skinny boy yelled in fear, "Let go, you lunatic."
Oliver laughed when he heard what the skinny boy called him. He pulled his right arm back again and punched his face hard with his fist.
the impact sent three of the skinny boy's teeth flying, causing him to fall to the ground and begin sobbing.
Suddenly Oliver heard the system robotic voice in his head again. Congratulations, host. You have beaten the three boys. Do you want to claim your reward now?
Oliver smiled and nodded his head. "Yes, system, I want to claim my reward now."
As you wish, host, the system responded to Oliver. Suddenly, a warm sensation spread throughout every cell of Oliver's body, including his bones, blood, organs, and muscles, lasting for a few seconds.
After the warm sensation disappeared, Oliver felt he was full of energy, and his body was way stronger than before.
Oliver was astonished at what he was feeling, and he murmured loudly to himself, "Is this the innate strength physique?"
Suddenly, Oliver heard the system's robotic voice again. You are correct host, the changes you feel in your body because you gained the innate strength physique.
Oliver smiled and nodded, then walked away, thinking, "Since I have this physique, I should start training my body."
He found an empty spot surrounded by trees. Oliver nodded to himself in satisfaction. He then started doing pushups.
