Sinfull Life With The Strongest System - Volume 3: Volume 3: End Of The New World Chapter 272

*Bip* *Bip*

“I guess he is waking up.”

Lucas flinched upon hearing the sound of a man calling upon someone waking up. Lucas, who had been staring at a large black paint, started to think as it was fading.

‘Is this an illusion?’

‘If so, then I will wake up ten seconds later.’

For some reason, it was very familiar.

“Leonardo, come here, Lucas is waking up.”

Lucas suddenly opened his eyes upon hearing the familiar name. Looking up, he saw the white ceilings. Turning his head right, he could see a screen that was displaying his heart beating rate.

He looked again around. This place was very familiar to Lucas. It’s the place where those who can’t go to the hospital go to.

‘Underworld hospital… My previous group…’

This is Earth.

Lucas had a calm expression, feeling some relaxation from the soft pillow. He felt some sore and his body was somehow aching, but his head felt light. Lucas tried to move his hand up. It was then a surprise. There were tattoos on his arms. Lucas opened his eyes widely. Those are his previous’ life tattoos.

*Bip* *Bip*

Lucas could tell that his heart started to beat faster.

“He opened his eyes.”

Suddenly, two people came to his vision.

One of them was a bald man with a grey beard. Lucas knew him. Galileo, one of the most known unethical docs you would meet, but also one of the best. The other person was a young man, with tanned skin, black eyes, long smooth black hair that was tied back. His lips drew a small smile as he looked at Lucas.

This one is his foster brother. One of the successors of the future underground business.

“Phew. Pops would be in relief.”

“Le…” Lucas found his throat dry a bit. “Leo.”

This looks very realistic. Even the pain feels real. Lucas knew that he must have gone through some illusion.

But some reason, he was feeling some trepidation.

‘Ten seconds had passed…’ Lucas thought. He should wake up by now. But unfortunately, he didn’t.

“Leo….” Lucas managed to say those words.

Leonardo sat next to Lucas, patted his arm, and said with a mocking tone. “For the last month, you had one hell of a wet dream… Tell me, what you had been seeing.”

“What! Dream.” managed Lucas to say.

“Yes, something about a Supreme Being, One Piece, and whatever…” Leonardo said, “and here I thought you a guy who prefers Godfather series.

“But I have to admit, Lucky Bastard, you have been orgasming during your coma. Even Galileo here is amazed.” Leonardo mocked, “Hey, hey, don’t give me that look. A nurse was cleaning up that.

“But whatever wet dream you had, those won’t count. My score now is 425. Yours is 410. I guess that means I’m ahead of you. I beat your score in one month”

“425! No way you banged that much during a month. At best you would be 411” Lucas replied as he tried to push his body up. That was how many girls they had picked in night clubs during holidays.

Lucas’s heart pondered faster as he tried to call the System. But nothing appeared in front of his eyes.

“Good to have you back. For a second, I thought you lost your memory.” Leonardo looked at Lucas with a worried expression. “The fact you could tell my score prove that your head is fine.”

Lucas looked at his tattooed arm and put it on his head, massaging his temple. Usually, he wouldn’t do that, as he would sleep. But now, it felt normal.

“So, you are telling me, I was dreaming,” Lucas said as he relaxed.

It would make sense. But for some reason, he felt confused.

‘Now this could mean one of two things.’

‘It could mean that the dream ended up when I was facing Usopp. That only happens in dreams…’

‘The second… As I saw, everyone from Linlin seemed to face the thing they wouldn’t want to face. Now, I am facing the thing that I don’t want to face…’

Lucas thought about it. During his life in One Piece world, there was something he avoided thinking about it.

When he fell that day, along with James, he hit the ground. For some nights in his life, he had that idea.

What if, all of that adventure was fake, a dream, and he was inside a dream while being in Coma. He didn’t like thinking about that as it would ruin the mood.

‘Is this… my worst fear?’ Lucas looked at the medical kit next to him. Galileo was injecting him with some serum.

But who calls waking up to a family member as a nightmare.

Lucas suddenly felt confused.

‘Hehe…’ Lucas let a laugh. This is great and makes sense, yet not, at the same time.

“Hah. Guess you liked reading Manga for you to murmur its name once or twice.” Leonardo said. “I’ll call Pops.”

“James…” murmured Lucas in that name

“Don’t worry. Father had sent an assassin to finish him off.” Leonardo said, “after you had delivered that fake stone, and got us the original, pop was angry at the fact that James made his move on you.”

“Hahaha…” Lucas let a forced laugh despite feeling his throat dry. “This is great.”

James only made a move on Lucas because Lucas had slept with his wife. But, whatever they think, is up to them.

Now, is this reality or illusion? Everything makes sense and not at the same time.

Lucas started to think about his life. How hard he worked for his dream. How girls were waiting for him and were warming his bed.

As he remembered, he was waiting for three kids. One from Lucci, and others from Kaya and Vivi. Robin was gaining some weight lately.

Lucas felt fear, unwillingness, and urge to wake up from this nightmare. What he feared is that he wouldn’t wake up. All of the people he made love with are now possibly nothing but a silly idea he made during his sleep.

Leonardo looked at his watch, before looking at Lucas. “Well, the delivery boy in disguise. I have a business to attend now. Get some rest and I’ll bring you some bitches later.”

“I get you…” Lucas relaxed his eyes. ‘Guess, no huge bitches anymore.

‘Now I realise it, my worst fear.’ Lucas smiled as he found the situation amusing.

“Hey, are you tearing,” Leonardo said as he looked at Lucas’s face for a brief?

“Maybe it’s only some weird shit Galileo injected,” Lucas said as he rubbed his eyes. “I never cry, never cried, ever since I was adopted by our father.”

“Well, I guess the blame in whatever Galileo did.”

People experience time differently in dreams.

He had to risk it based on this thought.

‘There is one way to become certain.’ Lucas thought ‘I’ll only need to spend some time sleeping.’

“I’ll take a rest. Say hi for Pop. Tell him I’ll never forget him.”

“Tell him that yourself. Now take a rest.”

Lucas closed his eyes, allowing himself to sleep. The best time to kill time is to sleep. The best time to escape both reality and illusion to sleep. Even a child knows that.

When he wakes up, he would accept whatever reality has offered for him. Because, as he remembers, Usopp would soon fly to the moon, as Lucas calculated all of the details as he threw rocks earlier to the sky.

-x-X-x-

“Now Lucas, time to die.”

Usopp was looking in front of him, toward Lucas. His hand was extended as he aimed a gun toward Lucas’s head.

Usopp had a smile as he looked at Lucas. Lucas, despite glaring at him with opened eyes, there were some tears there.

“Haha, I made the legendary marine cry… After all, you are nothing more than an ignorant teen.”

*Bang*

A bullet left Usopp’s gun and hit Lucas’s head. The bullet was reflected as it hit Lucas’s forehead. Lucas seemed to be fine.

“No way… isn’t he using Haki… Guess I miss calculated.”

Seven seconds had passed. Usopp opened his eyes widely for a brief before sighing. He then aimed his gun a little lower. “Guess, you would die when this pierce your eyes. Eyes, after all, are made of fats and not muscles.”

Eight seconds had passed.

Usopp aimed his gun very well at Lucas’s eye. This would kill him for sure. Usopp, suddenly, felt something was flying toward him. He titled his head a bit to the left. Next to his feet, a rock had landed and pierced the ground.

*Bang*

The collision was strong, as it was very fast.

“You were putting your hopes on a rock.” He then looked at Lucas as he thought about something and smiled “You aimed wrong.”

Usopp laughed as he looked at the standing, yet sleeping, Lucas. Had Lucas aimed right, then, Usopp would have been injured seriously or dead, and Lucas would wake up.

“Goodbye, Lucas. After you die, the whole pirates and marines would join you.”

Aiming his gun at Lucas’s eye again, Usopp’s finger was about to press the trigger.

*Earthquake*

Usopp suddenly lost his balance as the ground shook and the gun missed Lucas.

The rock, which fell earlier here, was affected by Lucas’s awakening. Meaning, it was an increasing rock. Had Lucas was awake, he would say, it increases the heat.

“Too hot!” Usopp suddenly felt his feet burning as he jumped slightly.

Bellow him, the piece of rock, which he was standing up, flew up along with him. Behind hit, a trail of very hot lava followed it. Usopp found himself being pushed up by that rock to the sky.

“What is going on?” Usopp looked down at Lucas who was getting smaller, as he was ascending up. Usopp lifted his head to see that he was getting closer to the clouds.

“I see, he was trying to make me die from falling. A silly move from you,” Usopp pushed his feet, covering himself with a purple aura. He took some steps, ready to jump.

But then, at that moment, a shiny red rock passed like a beam and pierced the rock he was standing on.

<>

Suddenly, Usopp found that he was unable to move. The rock flew up so fast that he couldn’t take a step, but he could only feel that he was too heavy.

In instant, he was above the clouds. He could see the sea, the lands bellow. Those lands continued to get smaller until he could see the whole planet of One Piece.

The movement of the rock stopped. Usopp found himself floating along with rock. He tried to breathe, but there was no air, so he quickly shut his mouth holding his breath.

Usopp tried to crawl. He thought and realised that he could use this rock. But as he tried to move, there was one thing wrong. His limbs felt cold. Usopp looked at his hand, ice was spreading on his skin. He was freezing, at a very fast rate. Very soon, ice spread across his body and he felt that he couldn’t move a limp.

-x-X-x-

Back down, the trail of Lava that sent Usopp to space was about to fall on Lucas. Without his Haki to protect him, Lucas would die once this falls on him.

But then, a rock came and clashed with the lava << More-More: Temperature x0.001>>

The lava suddenly froze in the air, turning into a hard black material.

Lucas, who was half sleeping earlier, blinked. The view for him changed from that hospital to One Piece world. He pinched his arm so hard that he bled.

“I feel pain, this is real.”

Lucas then massaged his arm until it stopped bleeding.

He looked in front of him, and then lifted his head, following the black pillar that pointed to the heavens.

“Ha…”

Lucas rubbed his wet eyes, and then made a blank expression. He then patted his arm, like he was pushing the dust away.

With a robotic sound, he said, looking at the heaven. “Had I knew that you would show me that, your death won’t be that easy.

“Consider yourself lucky.” Lucas let a sigh as he looked at the ground again, “what a headache.”

[Ding, Defeating Usopp

+5.000.000 XP]

[Ding, + Demonic Fruit: Necromancer.

A fruit which had the power of Necromancer sealed inside it.]

Lucas suddenly felt weird. Not a Devil Fruit, but a Demonic one… Isn’t this out of this world? There is one person who can do that.

Lucas suddenly lifted his head. He knew it. ‘It was him… Guess he is trying to remind me.’ Lucas then looked down. He smiled. “I see the joke here.”

“Darling.”

“Lucas!”

“Zorro.”

Lucas turned his head upon seeing the ground shaking. Big Mom, Smoothie, Gerd, Black Maria, Yamato, and huge creatures were running toward him. Their eyes were wet, had love within them.

Lucas, who had deactivated his power a long time ago and only woke up from a nightmare recently, smiled. Never had he thought he would feel happy seeing them?
