One Piece: Gambling To The Top - Chapter 148
Josh, waking up in the middle of the night, decided to test the gambling strategy he had invented. He crawled out of the bed between the hot girls, who had warmed this bed in this season.
Josh yawned and didn’t produce a sound, before walking to the yard. He lit up a cigar, feeling genius. He had just thought if he could control his luck by using the future vision.
A man who sees the future doesn’t need luck. Unless the future is very unlucky. But at least, one can take countermeasures.
It’s fair enough since it’s a skill of prediction.
Josh decided to see what he would get if he put a 100 point.
Since he has 2600 points, Josh wasn’t going to hold back.
“Master, you awake?” Kalifa looked through the window and jumped.
“You’re not sleeping?” Asked Josh, raising his eyebrow.
“Well. I don’t need sleep at all. I’m a vampire.” Kalifa said. “As long as I have blood, I won’t get tired.”
“Right.” Josh shook his head. ‘Another monster besides Hancock.’
“Are you going to communicate with IT,” Kalifa said, adjusting her white nightgown.
“Yes… sit beside me, and don’t interrupt me.” Josh said. “I may react weirdly, but don’t take it too seriously.”
Josh had to say that. At least, if he clenched his fist and yelled Boyakasha, or Jackpot, or Bingo, she won’t think he is weird.
Like a good little girl, Kalifa sat next to him, and Josh wrapped his arm around her.
As he saw the future of what he will get, he saw it would be Angel Tears, a package of 5. Josh decided to see the future again, and the reward didn’t change that much. As Josh added one point above the hundred points, it didn’t change. Half closing his eyes, Josh added ten, and the reward changed.
‘It seems for each amount of points, a reward is waiting for me, and when that reward is taken, the list of the rewards would hide.’
Josh felt like a master who reached the highest level in the game. Kalifa leaned her head and stared at his face, wondering what he is experimenting with. He didn’t look like the cute master from this angle, but more like a leader who is seeing the future.
“Kalifa, tell me what is your weapon again?” Josh asked.
“Ah…Whip, sir.” Kalifa snapped back, as she had been observing his face. When he looked at her, she blushed when she realised he may know she was admiring his face.
“Can’t you just call me Josh,” Josh said.
“It’s improper. Our status is different, besides, I’m your servant.” Kalifa said, her pale cheeks quite red as she put her head on his shoulder. Since Josh had been dominating her when they have sex, the idea of her being his servant more than his girl was deeply planted in her mind.
“Who cares about formalities.” Josh patted her shoulder, before reaching the thin air. Kalifa didn’t believe her eyes as they appeared from the thin air. A whip, silver one appeared.
“It’s a Whip that can’t be cut, and it can extend endlessly. Also, you can use your Devil Fruit with it.”
Josh said. Kalifa held the whip, and when she focused on it, it turned into lightning. It didn’t move, instead, it sustained its form. As the lightning was channelled for a few seconds, it became so hot. When the whip touched the ground, it was lit on fire. Kalifa wasn’t affected by the heat, since her body is lightning, but Josh had to cover his hand in scales to move it away.
“I guess this weapon fits you,” Josh said. This whip seemed to be on the same level as his previous sword, which couldn’t be melted by magma.
“Mm…” Kalifa nodded, smiling. “I’ll use it wisely.”
She put it next to her.
Josh then decided to draw for more things, using the same technique of seeing the future. Soon, Josh got another package of 3 Devil Bloods for 121 Draw Points. Useless for him, good for his group.
With this, he can make himself very strong. Not only so, but he can make his crew very strong, agile, or stamina.
The system always gave good things to Josh that surprise him. However, sometimes, Josh would wish for specific things, and he wouldn’t want to change that.
Looking at the sky, Josh started laughing.
“Ha… ha! Ha Ha Ha!”
Josh couldn’t hold himself from laughing. It was a hysterical laugh. Josh then started drawing, seeing the probability of what he gets.
As it seems, there should be 4-5 specific rewards within the range of each 100 million. Also, he knew how many points he would use and what gives him.
Josh’s luck can’t play him anymore. A man who sees the future plays the luck.
Josh put exactly 29 points for Draw.
[+ Instant Mastery Pill x2 (Epic)]
Josh now knows if he can get a legend, or epic rank, for a very cheap price.
Kalifa stared at him, who was laughing. She didn’t doubt his early words that he may act strangely. But this, it seemed less weird than she had expected.
[59 points]
[+ Zoan Devil Fruit Cat-Cat: Blue tiger (Excellent)]
Josh has broken the system, literally.
[263 points]
[Strengthening Wine (Legend)]
(Add 100 tons in strength)
[300 points]
[The Samurai Will (Legend)]
(Increases the spiritual power and will by 200%)
‘Now, since things are going bad, Let’s make myself a strong person.’
Usually, people get strength, and that strength determines how much Berries they are worth.
Josh, on the other hand, his Berries determine how much power he has.
Kalifa took two devil blood droplets that appeared in his hand.
Seeing that Josh was happy, she asked. “Is he…”
“Generous.” Josh got many epic items, without using more than a hundred million, and he got some legend rank.
Somehow, he was afraid that all of this would be just a dream.
It would just be a shame.
Josh then started sweating. He took a few breaths. “Kalifa, bring me some water.”
Josh said, seeming to be tired.
“Are you okay?” Kalifa asked with concern.
“Yeah.”
It seems that he used Haki so many times. After all, Josh was seeing the future hundreds of times, and that hurt his head. He needs a break from time to time. Nevertheless, this discovery is insane.
Even if it hurts his head too much.
Kalifa turned into a lightning bolt and brought him a water cup. Before she knew it, Josh fell asleep, taking a nap. She only smiled, held his head, and gave him a lap pillow.
