One piece: But MC is smart.

System:"That performance with Smoker… convincing, but dramatic, don't you think? A tragic story about your parents, a blade that supposedly 'witnessed justice's hypocrisy.' Really? You crafted a false narrative using the very tools I provided. Let's not forget—your so-called 'weapon of justice' was forged by this system. Doesn't that undermine your whole act?"

Rashed:

(Leaning back, his voice calm but firm)

"System, don't misunderstand me. The story wasn't for me—it was for him. Smoker is a man of conviction, a slave to the idea of justice. To shake someone like that, you need more than raw strength; you need a story that stabs deeper than any blade. If I gave him nothing to think about, he'd keep pestering me, trying to recruit me for their twisted navy. This way, he's left questioning his beliefs, doubting their system, and thinking twice before coming after me again."

System:

"So you're saying manipulation is your tool now? What happens when the story backfires? What if the navy decides you're more dangerous than any pirate and hunts you harder?"

Rashed:

(Smirking slightly)

"Then they'll prove my point, won't they? Besides, do you think the navy, the same organization that bows to the Celestial Dragons, would risk pushing me too far? They need control, not chaos. If they think I might turn pirate, they'll tread carefully. A believable tragedy ensures they see me as someone wronged by their 'justice.' It's not lying—it's strategy."

System:

"You're playing a dangerous game, Rashed. You're gambling on their fear of losing control while pretending to be above them."

Rashed:

(Looking out into the distance, his tone sharp)

"Fear and belief are powerful tools. I gave Smoker something to fear—a blade sharpened with his system's flaws. And I gave him a belief—that if he pushes me, I could become the very thing his justice claims to stand against. Manipulation? Maybe. Necessary? Absolutely."

System:

"You're walking a fine line. Just remember, even the sharpest blade can cut its wielder."

Rashed:

(Lifting the blade slightly, inspecting it)

"True. But it's the hand guiding the blade that decides where it cuts. And this hand doesn't waver."

The conversation fades into silence, the weight of their exchange lingering as Rashed sheathes his sword, ready for the next step in his journey.

Navy Six Styles (Rokushiki)

Shave (Soru):

Description: This technique allows the user to move at extremely high speeds, nearly vanishing from sight, by kicking the ground multiple times in rapid succession within an instant. This movement is not only quick but can be used for both offense and evasion, making it versatile in battle.

SP Cost: 100 SP

Compatibility: High (95%) due to the host's agility and mastery over footwork.

Iron Body (Tekkai):

Description: This technique hardens the user's muscles to the point of withstanding significant physical attacks, including gunfire or blunt force. The drawback is the user becomes temporarily immobile while activating the technique.

SP Cost: 100 SP

Compatibility: Moderate (80%) since it aligns with the host's focus on durability and adaptability in combat.

Finger Gun (Shigan):

Description: The user concentrates all their strength into a single fingertip and thrusts it forward with tremendous force, creating a piercing attack equivalent to a bullet. This technique requires precise body control and enhanced strength.

SP Cost: 150 SP

Compatibility: High (90%) due to the host's skill in close-quarters combat and biomechanical insight.

Smoker's Devil Fruit (Smoke-Smoke Fruit - Moku Moku no Mi)

Description: This is a Logia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to create, control, and transform into smoke at will. The user can generate dense clouds of smoke for offense, capture opponents by wrapping them in smoke, and use smoke propulsion for high-speed movement. The intangibility of smoke makes the user nearly immune to most physical attacks unless imbued with Haki.

SP Costs for Abilities:

Smoke Body Transformation (Logia Intangibility): 600 SP

Smoke Manipulation and Capture: 400 SP

Smoke Propulsion (Enhanced Movement): 300 SP

Full Smoke-Smoke Fruit Ability Set: 2,200 SP

Compatibility: Low to Moderate (30%) due to the elemental nature differing from Rashed's physical-centric combat style.

System Use customization authority to add shave in stealth techniques and customize finger gun into usable via sword tip.

Heh heh heh! Speed of stealth and piercing power of sword tip with a finger gun. One strike one kill.

Ding!

Customization complete.

Rashed stood motionless as the system finalized the upgrades. His body felt different—not strained, but sharper, more in tune with itself. The integration of Shave into the second version of his stealth technique had created something entirely new. Every step now felt like a whisper in the wind, his movements nearly imperceptible, yet explosively fast. This was Stealth Technique Version 3, an evolution that combined silent precision with unmatched speed.

Next came the Piercing Gun. By applying the principles of Finger Gun (Shigan) to his swordsmanship, Rashed could channel the momentum of his blade into pinpoint, high-velocity thrusts. Each strike now felt like a bullet piercing through the air, carrying the destructive force of a focused explosion. It wasn't just strength—it was finesse honed to a lethal edge.

As he tested the upgraded abilities, his body responded instinctively, like it had always known these moves. He took a step forward, and the ground beneath him barely registered the pressure. A quick thrust of his blade into a stone pillar sent cracks spiraling outward like spiderwebs, the tip of the sword embedding cleanly with surgical precision. He swung again, this time focusing on Piercing Gun. The sheer force of the thrust sent a shockwave rippling through the air, splitting a nearby boulder into fragments before he even made contact.

The seamless integration felt surreal, almost too smooth. The system's enhancements didn't just add power—they unlocked potential that had been waiting to surface. His muscles moved with a newfound fluidity, and his reaction time felt instantaneous as if his body had become an extension of his will.

Strength Improvement Analysis:

Stealth Technique Version 3: Improved movement speed and precision by 45% over Version 2.

Piercing Gun: Increased the lethality and destructive force of thrusting attacks by 60% compared to his standard sword techniques.

Rashed sheathed his sword, taking a deep breath to center himself. A faint smirk crossed his lips.

"This... this is what evolution feels like. Silent, deadly, unstoppable."

He turned his gaze to the horizon, ready to unleash his newfound skills on whatever challenge came next.

Standing on a desolate island under the twilight sky, begins to focus intently on his Smoke Manipulation ability. He breathes deeply, sensing the air around him, feeling the flow of molecules and the way the wind whispers through the atmosphere. Slowly, a thick, dark fog begins to swirl around him, as he manipulates the smoke into various forms. He runs his hand through the smoky mist, his mind racing with possibilities.

He envisions a scenario where he would face a large group of pirates—desperate, unruly, and ready to fight. In this scenario, Rashed plans to trap them in a confined space, like an auction house or a similarly structured building. The room would be filled with the scent of treasure and excitement, but Rashed, hidden in plain sight, would already be one step ahead.

Using his Smoke Manipulation, he would envelop the room in a dense cloud of smoke, shrouding everything in a thick haze. At this moment, he would add his Tear Gas to the smoke, an irritating, burning chemical that would force the pirates to struggle with their eyes watering, and lungs seizing up. The confusion would spiral, and before anyone could truly comprehend what was happening, he would add synthetic drugs into the mix. These would be specifically engineered to weaken their bodies, making their muscles feel heavy, and their minds cloudy.

But that's not all. Rashed, ever the strategist, plans to inject hallucinatory drugs into the smoke as well. As the pirates' vision warps, reality blurs, and their minds begin to play tricks on them. Shadows turn into monsters, allies become enemies, and the familiar walls of the auction house close in on them. Panic would set in as they struggle against invisible foes—yet, in truth, they're fighting nothing at all. It would be as if they were drowning in their terror.

The brilliance of the plan lies in its subtlety. Rashed wouldn't need to lift a finger or engage in a drawn-out battle. With a few precise manipulations of the smoke, he could render a room full of pirates incapacitated without ever revealing himself. He could silence a hundred enemies in one fell swoop, all of them trapped in a nightmare of their own making. The smoke would be his weapon, a tool of perfect control.

Rashed smirks, running through the plan in his head once more. He had come to realize that sometimes, not fighting was the most efficient route to victory. His smoke would do all the work for him, and his enemies wouldn't even know what hit them.
