In One Piece, there are two types of pirates. Those who gain infamy by destroying towns, killing people, ruling with an iron fist. Then there is the type that gains infamy by doing what they feel is right. This type only wants to go against the rules, but somehow causes trouble anyways.

Yan D. Yu didn’t know what type of pirate he wanted to be. He felt like the second type would fit him more since he was a free spirit, and didn’t want to kill everyone. However, the first type could gain infamy faster.

As he coasted along the sea, he gave it a lot of thought. This would pay a big factor in determining his role in this world.

The whole time all he could picture was him being on a boat with his friends laughing, drinking, listening to music. Just having a good time without a care in the world.

He didn’t think that this would be the type to suit him either as he needed to be in charge of a large amount of people. If he could gather up a small group of people and have mutual trust he would be set. They could have their own subordinates, while he could be with them.

Even on Earth, there was no way that he could handle a lot of people. Not even the biggest companies in the world have one person in charge of everyone. There was a chain of command.

He knew that if he wanted to have a good amount of pirates with him, he would need to use a chain of command. Still, first thing that needs to be done is settled himself in this world.

Putting all his thoughts in the back of his head, he cruised along as he spotted the edge of a port.

There were huge ships docked, while men with big arms were moving cargo on and off the ships. Compared to those ships, Yan D. Yu’s boat was like an ant. Luckily he could squeeze between them and docked his boat as well.

His feet pushed off the boat as he jumped in the air and did a front flip landing on the ground. His sudden appearance attracted the workers who were moving cargo.

Currently there were plenty of people working, so there was a crowd. Yan D. Yu didn’t make much of it as he strolled past them and headed to town.

As he past a few stalls selling fish, apples, and other goods, he garnished the attention of many people. He knew why as well. He was only wearing a hat, shorts, and shoes! No one in this world was use to this sort of appearance. Some of the women who were with their children covered their eyes. How could they let them see such a thing.

Yan D. Yu didn’t care, he liked his appearance. Besides, there wasn’t anything wrong with the way he looked. In fact, he was handsome. There was no doubt in his mind. If he were to walk into some brothel, he was sure to attract attention.

“Hmm, I should search for an inn.”

No one came up to him, it seemed like they wanted to avoid him at all cost. Although Yan Yu was a servant, he could still read.

He saw a sign hung above a wooden door that said ‘Rabbit Inn’. Just what he was looking for.

Walking over, he made his way inside. The first thing that caught his attention was a young lady at the counter with braided black hair. She was hot, but probably already had a husband.

As Yan D. Yu made his way over to the counter, she noticed him and blushed. As her cheeks were dyed red, it gave him a weird feeling in his heart.

“Hey, how much for one night?” He asked her as he sat down in a stool.

She must not have heard him as her eyes were glued on his body. Going from his head, down to his stomach and back up again.

‘Maybe she’s not married…’ He thought.

Tapping the counter, he asked once more, “How much for one night?”

She seemed to be woken up by his tapping as she looked up at him. “Umm…”

Her entire face turned red as she tried to make out some words, but couldn’t.

Yan D. Yu sighed. Appearances could also be a curse.

Standing up, he turned around and started walking towards the exit. It seemed that she wasn’t planning on giving him an answer soon.

“What are you doing!” A voice sounded out from behind the girl as an older woman came out from the door. “Can’t you see someone is trying to stay here, do you have screws in your head?”

“Sir, if you would, please return. I’m sure we have a room available for you.” She told Yan D. Yu trying to stop him from leaving.

He turned around, and his eyes caught a wonderful view. She may be older, but this woman was mature. Although she was wearing some loose fitted clothes, if she wore something else any man couldn’t stop themselves from attacking her. Short silky hair that stopped at her shoulders, brown eyes, and smooth white skin.

Yan D. Yu had a thought, but didn’t react on it. He already decided that if he were to have any type of romance here, the woman he would be with had to be able to hold her own. If not, then things could get complicated while he is chasing his dream.

“How much for a single night?” He asked once again.

“A single night is 10 bronze.” She replied.

“I’ll be back.” He told her as he left the inn.

There were a few things he needed to do, but he couldn’t do it without any money. Surely there had to be a way for him to gain money fast.

….

He didn’t know it, but he caused a little commotion in the inn after he left. By the entrance was a dining area, where the customers can eat their food. Most of them were males young and old who only came to this inn for one reason.

The mother and daughter pair were both single. The daughter is currently sixteen years of age which is the perfect time for her to get married. If a woman isn’t married at the age of twenty, then something had to be wrong with her. Her mother was married, but the father died which is now why she is single.

Many men came here hoping to court one of the two. For them, as long as they can spend their lives with either of these two women, their life would be complete.

Wearing a fancy robe, a youth who was holding a glass tightened his hand shattering it. “Who is he? He dares step into my town and make my woman blush?” Small amounts of blood leaked out from the cuts on his hand.

“Ja Jing, I don’t know, he just appeared today.” A bigger man with a pot belly replied.

“Find out! And what’s with his appearance? Doesn’t he have any shame?”
