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/

Chronicles of the Hidden Crown: The System’s Gentle Tyrant

When the enigmatic and overpowered Kieran Drayke awakens in a foreign magical world after a sudden transmigration, he brings along a system unlike any this realm has ever known. The “Sovereign Architect System” doesn’t just make him invincible—it gives him the tools to build something far greater. But Kieran isn’t interested in world domination. At least, not in the usual way. Disillusioned by the world's surface-level glimmer and the rot beneath it, Kieran sets his sights on the forsaken—those discarded by society, lost in the shadows of nobility and corruption. From slums, war zones, and forgotten ruins, he gathers orphan girls of various races—elves, beastkin, humans, and more—each with untapped potential and pain behind their eyes. He trains them in secret. Guides them. Empowers them. Not as soldiers, but as a family. A hidden organization that operates behind the curtains, shaping the world while appearing as ordinary students at the prestigious Aetherion Magic Academy. Kieran himself? Just a carefree, slightly lazy transfer student with a penchant for sweets, sarcasm, and sneaking naps between classes—on the surface, at least. With a slow-burning plot that weaves magical worldbuilding, deep friendships, training arcs, casual comedy, and a cast of unforgettable girls who grow into queens of the unseen, Chronicles of the Hidden Crown explores what happens when an OP MC doesn’t conquer the world with brute force… But builds a legacy from its forgotten pieces. No betrayal. No forced drama. Just the steady rise of a secret kingdom in the shadows of a crumbling empire.

Taming the Billionaire’s Desire

Power. Control. Discipline. Peter Alexander built his empire on these principles, becoming the second wealthiest man in the world. Cold, ruthless, and dangerously untouchable, he has no patience for weakness—especially not the kind that comes from desire. Then she walks into his life. Naarah, a breathtaking beauty with an innocent heart, unknowingly steps into Peter’s world when she interrupts a high-stakes business meeting, challenging him in front of his board. Bold, unaware of the dangers surrounding her, she defies him without hesitation. And for the first time in years, Peter feels something stir—something dangerous, something forbidden. But he’s not the only one who notices her. His greatest rival, the world’s richest and most merciless man, sets his sights on Naarah, mistaking lust for love and believing she belongs to him. Deception, manipulation, and a deadly obsession pull her deeper into a world she doesn’t understand. And when she begins to mistake her confusion for feelings toward the wrong man, the stakes rise even higher. Peter watches, his patience wearing thin, his control slipping. She should fear him—he’s a man who takes what he wants. Yet, she challenges him at every turn, awakening a hunger he can no longer ignore. But when his rival crosses the line, threatening to steal everything, Peter will stop at nothing to protect the woman he can no longer deny belongs to him. In a battle of power, passion, and possession, can Naarah resist the dark allure of the billionaire who wants to claim her? And when desire turns to something deeper, will Peter allow himself to surrender to the only thing he’s ever feared—love?

Entertainment: Starting as a Succubus, Taking Hollywood by Storm

Martin was a succubus who perished at the hands of the Sun God, struck down by a single divine arrow during the epic war between gods and demons. Meanwhile, Martin, a Ph.D. in literature and a seasoned movie enthusiast, lost his life in a car accident in August 2023. By some cosmic twist of fate, the souls of the two Martins converged within the chaotic currents of time and space, merging and eventually settling in the body of an eleven-year-old boy named Martin Myers, living in Los Angeles in 1996. A world without spiritual energy? Fortunately, as a succubus, I don’t need spiritual energy to cultivate; all I need is the essence of desire. Emotions—joy, anger, sorrow, and excitement—are all desires. As long as these emotions are directed at me, they can become fuel for my growth. Alright, let’s see what reliable ways exist in this world to stir people’s emotions en masse. Hmm, becoming a writer—sounds promising; and music, that could work too; but wow, Hollywood movies! They have a global reach; this is perfect! What’s that term again? Right—"Idea Recycler.” I’ll start with writing, but the ultimate goal is to become an international movie star. Acting skills, you say? Don’t worry—I’m a succubus, after all! Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to this novel.
