Synopsis
After dying unexpectedly, a young man is pulled into the Universal Character Sync System, a mysterious mechanism that inserts chosen souls into fictional universes, turning them into new characters in worlds watched by fans and written by authors on alternate Earths. His first assignment: the world of One Piece. (After a decent amount of chapters, I will let you guys pick the next anime. I honestly want to do the popular anime first although it may take a while. It's my first time writing, so I'll accept any and all criticism. Thanks for reading.)

Chapter 1 - Prologue

It was dark. 

The empty, all consuming kind. One moment, I was crossing the street, and the next, that bastard truck-kun slammed me out of existence. 

My life was already boring as it is. I could barely feel anything for anyone anymore, my actions were only to reciprocate how I was treated by them. I had always wanted to get out of this existence, and have fun in an anime. I wanted to be everything I was not, worth something. 

I was in there for a long time, staring into nothingness without eyes to see, or ears to hear. No skin, no nerves, no bones, no brain, no flesh, I was...nothing. 

Then came the voice. 

[SYSTEM INITIALIZATION COMPLETE]

Welcome soul. You have been chosen by the Universal Character Sync Program. 

"Am I tweaking?"

Your designated world is......the anime of One Piece. 

"What the hell..."

Your life will now serve as an experiment for character integration within different worlds. Your audience will be from Earth-97, an exact replica of your world with the only change being whatever character you create being in every anime that exists. You will not know or get to choose these worlds, but you are expected to adhere to the rules. It is asked that you enjoy this experience as you are one of the first to experience this. 

"How will this...experiment work?"

Your job is to fit into whatever role you are given for each world. Do not fret, it is random. It is definitive that you will have an important role in each anime, whether as a random side character, or as a powerhouse used for scaling within that universe. Would you like to begin?

'Hm...what choice do I have anyway? I might as well get this over with.' 

"Yes."

[Loading...]

{A screen flickered in front of him}

[CORE ABILITY SPIN - 1x Available]

One ability will remain with you across all words. Good luck. 

[SPINNING...]

{A roulette wheel of abilities appeared in front of him, including Time Reversal, Rinnegan, Perfect Acting, Shapeshifting...}

[~DING~]

Bloodline Synch:

You may absorb the racial traits of the species you encounter, as long as their blood enters your system. Currently limited to choosing two from each race. You can take aspects of their appearance as well to your own liking. 

'Good enough...I probably could have gotten something way better, like Visionary, but I'll work with this. Hell, this might even be better.'

{With that thought, he moved onto the next wheel}

[LINEAGE SPIN - 1x Available]

Your lineage will determine your initial talent, and default role in the order of the world.

[SPINNING...]

[~DING~]

Rocks D Xebec:

Well aren't you lucky? You are related to this legendary pirate, and may be hunted to death by the World Government. More points for you, huh?

"Yeah, I'm cooked."

[RACE SPIN - 1x Available]

"Wait a minute, wouldn't it have made more sense for you to give me this before the lineage spin? I mean...wouldn't my race affect the spin in some way?"

Yes, you are correct. However, your lineage was predetermined due to the suggestions of Oda and an admin of the system. 

"WHAT?!"

[SPINNING...]

'Doesn't really matter what I get anyway, it's most likely human though."

[~DING~]

Human:

A regular human in the One Piece world.

"Quick question, Oda never revealed much about Rocks in my world, I was only alive up to the arc with Vegapunk, Egghead I think. So is the info of Rocks already chosen within the version of earth that will be watching me?"

Yes.

[APPEARANCE SPIN - 1x Available]

[SPINNING...]

[~DING~]

Appearance of Rin Matsuoka:

This character is from the anime, Free, written by Kouji Ohji. 

"How is this of any use to me?"

[SYSTEM OVERRIDE: INTERFERANCE FROM HIGHER UP]

Due to the ungratefulness of experiment subject #6, their appearance has been changed.

[RESPINNING APPEARANCE...]

"I didn't mean it...?"

[~DING~]

Congratulations experiment subject #6, you have been given the facial structure, and body type of Rocks D. Xebec, as well as the hair type of Yoriichi Tsugikune. 

"Are you sure you're not trying to kill me?"

You will now be given the name Rocks D. Akumu. Your role within this world will be "The Scourge Of The Sun"

"Good enough, what else?"

You are now given a choice for your backstory. You will be related to Nami and those around her, as an excuse to fulfill your role.

A. Start at the beginning. This makes you able to personally develop your relationship with the people of Cocoyashi village, and gives you more opportunities to get popularity points from flashback events. After a while, you will be given the opportunity to time-skip to when Nami officially joins the Straw Hat Pirates.

B. Start from when Arlong is defeated. Your relationship with Nami will be automatically generated, but you will start out weaker. You will be given 1000 popularity points to start. 

"Crap. System, since the popularity points are most likely going to be used for gacha, how much is it for one spin?"

I cannot disclose that information, choose wisely.

"..."
