Pirate: It's reasonable for a pirate like me to look for treasure.

The sound of the system ended, and the broken wooden treasure chest in front of the two people instantly emitted a dazzling red light, and the red light dissipated after a moment.

The broken wooden treasure chest just now has transformed into a large treasure chest inlaid with rubies that is gorgeous beyond description.

This made Luffy excitedly shouted: "Awesome!!! Did you do this, Lake? So cool!"

Lake was also stunned by the scene in front of him at this time. After coming to his senses, Lake took a deep breath and walked forward to slowly open the gorgeous treasure chest.

When Lake approached the treasure chest, he felt a strange force in his body being pulled out, and then the treasure chest opened smoothly.

The dazzling red light reappeared the moment the treasure chest was opened, but Lake and Luffy's eyes did not move away.

Even Luffy's eyes had turned into two stars, and he was so excited that he couldn't speak. As the red light dissipated, the things in the treasure chest emerged one by one.

The first thing that caught his eye was the jewels of various colors, each of which looked priceless. Lake felt that this was much more expensive than gold.

The second most attractive thing was a rolled up old parchment and a ring. Lake knew that these were special things.

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the space ring (sealed state): can accommodate ten cubic meters of space."

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the treasure map: the treasure hiding place, Shields Town."

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the red grade exclusive treasure, God's Vision: eyes that can copy even the power of God."

The system's three uninterrupted congratulations made Lake's smile gradually thicker, until the last prompt appeared, Lake's face was directly filled with shock.

"God's Vision?! Is that what I thought? Adam's God's Vision?!"

In response to Lake's question, the system only responded with a sudden pain in both eyes, and Lake knelt on the ground with his hands covering his eyes.

Luffy, who was still excitedly searching in the treasure chest, heard Lake's scream and immediately came to him anxiously, shaking Lake's body and shouting.

"Hey! Lake! What's wrong with you? Did the red light just now sting your eyes?"

Fortunately, the pain in his eyes did not last long, and Lake recovered quickly. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes had changed.

Both eyes appeared in the shape of a red six-pointed star, which looked very strange. After seeing it, Luffy forgot what happened just now and asked.

"Huh? Lake, your eyes have changed. They look so strange?"

Lake stood up and responded to Luffy's words, saying, "Yes, I got a very powerful ability from this treasure chest, which is these eyes."

After that, Lake made up an identity as a treasure hunter and explained his situation to Luffy.

But in the end, Lake's explanation was summarized in one sentence in Luffy's mind: "In short, it's an incredible treasure, right!"

Hearing Luffy's words, Lake also covered his forehead helplessly, but think about it, if he can understand, he will not be called Luffy.

However, Lake's various magical performances still made Luffy throw an olive branch to him and said, "Hey~ Lake, be my partner!"

There was no extra words to invite directly. Lake thought for a second and shook hands with Luffy with a smile.

"Then please take good care of me in the future, Captain!"

"Hehehe! That's great. I have my first partner before I even go out to sea! What kind of adventure will be waiting for me next! I'm so looking forward to it!"

Following Luffy was the decision Lake made after weighing his goals in this world. Compared with other unknown futures, the future he knew well was the most reassuring.

After that, Lake used the space ring to take away all the gems in the treasure chest. Just when Luffy was still considering whether to take this super cool treasure chest away.

The treasure chest disappeared out of thin air and turned back into the original tattered wooden box, which was naturally empty.

After Luffy snored loudly, he blamed all the changes on Lake. Lake didn't explain much after all, he knew Luffy's character.

The two quickly returned to Makino's tavern. Now that the treasure was obtained and the goal was confirmed, Lake could finally have a good meal.

Although Luffy had just eaten a full meal and was ready to leave not long ago, the moment he saw the table full of various foods,

He still acted like he had never eaten in his eight lifetimes.

Most of the food on the last table was eaten by Luffy, but Lake also had a good meal. He was hungry all day, so he still couldn't eat enough compared to Luffy.

After a little preparation, the two set off again. Luffy and Lake said goodbye to Makino and embarked on their adventure.

Not long after going out to sea, the sea surface suddenly shook violently, and a huge sea monster appeared in front of the two.

Lake recognized the identity of this guy at a glance, the "horrible sea beast" who could kill one arm of the Four Emperors Shanks, the Lord of the Near Sea!

Luffy smiled when he saw this guy appear and said, "Finally appeared, Lord of the Near Sea."

The Lord of the Near Sea naturally didn't understand what Luffy was saying. The creature's instinct directly made it attack the two. Lake stood quietly by the side without panic.

Luffy took a stance and continued, "Let me show you the moves I've been practicing for ten years...Rubber Pistol!"

Roar!

With a scream from the Lord of the Near Sea, its entire body was knocked out of the sea, and then it fell back into the sea and stopped moving.

Luffy looked at his fist and said with a smile on his face, "You've seen how powerful I am, stinky fish! First I need to gather partners, I want ten people, I'm so lucky to have found the first partner before I go out to sea, and the pirate flag. Okay! Let's go! I'll be the Pirate King!"

Lake watched the whole process. Sure enough, no matter how many times he watched this scene, he would never get tired of it. It was the starting point of his dream.
