Doflamingo carefully examined the two open scrolls. Both had emerged from the wooden chest as soon as he had opened it with a mere thought… This was his current state, one that was similar to every other player at the beginning: surrounded by a fog-covered map with only the areas they traversed fully visible, like Kaya's mansion.

"Fufufu~ Interesting. This game truly exceeds expectations… I didn't expect it to be this realistic. The teacher is truly a genius!"

Doflamingo stared at the sickle in his hand. His current task was to cut the weeds in the garden. Of course, he would never agree to such menial work in real life, but in the game, it was different!

When they appeared in the game, they were already inside Kaya's mansion garden. As Kaya stepped out of the mansion, accompanied by Merry, she asked him, "Who are these people?"

Merry, startled for a moment, quickly replied, "My lady, perhaps they're here for the employment request you instructed me to post last week."

Kaya nodded in understanding, then smiled gently at the unfamiliar faces. Her pale face, worn from illness, didn't stop her from addressing the newcomers with grace.

"Since you're already here, I hope you'll take good care of the garden..."

As soon as she spoke, her words transformed into an official task on the players' system interfaces.

---

[Group Task: Team up with the players around you to trim, clean, and care for the garden's plants and trees.]

[Reward: 1,200 Berries, 5 EXP, and Beginner Level Gardening Skill.]

---

Of course, Mihawk, Doffy, the Golden Lion, and the others weren't particularly interested in the gardening skill. They were far more focused on gaining experience points, so they accepted the task without hesitation.

Even though leveling up wasn't possible in the game's closed beta, the experience points they earned would still be theirs to keep.

This was why the players were currently working diligently to complete the task!

It took them an entire day to finish the group task. Due to their low levels, their stamina was severely limited, leaving them utterly exhausted by the end of the day.

---

"Jihahaha! That little girl Kaya still doesn't know the truth about Klahadore... Why not reveal his true identity and see her reaction?"

Night had fallen, and most of the players had already gone to sleep, scattered across the garden. However, Shiki remained awake, staring at the illuminated room that belonged to Kaya.

His character design was simple: a young blond man with black sunglasses and flamboyant orange clothing. His thick blond hair resembled the iconic mane of the Golden Lion.

"What are you plotting, Golden Lion?"

Beside him was Bullet, who had a lean character design and dark skin. He was still awake—how could he sleep when his primary mission was to keep an eye on the Golden Lion?

"I'm thinking about how to make this game more exciting! Jihahaha!"

"Don't you think the same? We all know Kuro is Klahadore… If we expose his true identity, don't you think we'll unlock more missions? Why should we waste time trimming the garden!?"

Shiki simply wanted to experiment with a new line of thinking, searching for more quests to quickly level up his character once released from prison.

After all, unlike the other players, he was a prisoner. Only by regaining his freedom could he fully participate in the game. This closed beta was his one and only chance.

Once the game officially launched, he wouldn't get another opportunity until his sentence was served… and waiting that long was unbearable.

"You're insane… Fine, go ahead and try," Bullet said, not stopping him. In fact, he was curious to see Shiki embarrass himself.

Why would he stop Shiki? After all, Rob had sent him here precisely to uncover the game's bugs. Even if Shiki didn't want to explore the game, Bullet, Redfield, and World were tasked with forcing him to do so.

---

"Oi! Lady Kaya, are you still awake?"

Shiki stood beneath the tree outside Kaya's bedroom window, calling out loudly.

"My lady—" Before Shiki could finish his second shout, his world flipped upside down as his head rolled off and hit the ground.

A stream of blood gushed from his severed neck, splattering onto the face of a handsome man adjusting his glasses with the edge of his palm… It was Kuro, who had decapitated Shiki with his claws.

Before Shiki's headless body could hit the ground, Kuro swiftly grabbed it and retreated to a dark corner to temporarily hide the corpse.

What Kuro didn't notice as he departed was that the body disintegrated into dust the next moment.

---

"He killed him…"

Bullet swallowed hard as he watched the distant scene unfold.

World, Redfield, and the others were also awake and witnessed the spectacle. The same went for Mihawk, Issho, Doffy, Rosinante, and Enel, who had been roused by the commotion.

"What should we do? He's coming our way..."

"Did he hear us talking about his secret?"

"That's possible… Run!"

"At our current levels, we're no match for him… We'll die instantly."

The players were fully aware of their grim reality… but one person didn't back down. Instead, he walked directly toward Kuro.

"Brave… or just stupid?"

Kuro remained expressionless as he watched the young man with hawk-like eyes approach him.

Mihawk held a sickle in his hand, the same one he had used earlier in the day to cut weeds.

---

[New Mission: Feeling uneasy about the sudden influx of people who might interfere with his plan, Kuro (disguised as Klahadore) stayed awake to investigate their presence. Due to a mistake by one of the players, Kuro has decided to eliminate all the newcomers. Without a doubt, you are now his target. Fight for your life.]

[Survival Rewards: 100 EXP, all of Captain Kuro's skills, Bounty Reward: 16,000,000 Berries.]

---

Mihawk ignored the flurry of notifications that appeared on his system interface, focusing entirely on the enemy intent on taking his life.

'I haven't felt this weak in years… The enemy is definitely not strong, but my low level is holding me back…'

Above Kuro's head was the label in red: (Klahadore (Captain Kuro) Level 13).

Meanwhile, Mihawk's level was 0… The disparity was glaring.

As a player known as "Hawk Eyes," Mihawk simply wanted to see if he could pull off something shocking.

Clang! 

Kuro's claws clashed with Mihawk's sickle, which didn't last even a second before shattering like butter.

Kuro's claws were undoubtedly sharp. Mihawk's impression of them was clear—he had seen Kuro fight both Luffy and Zoro in the anime, and earlier in the manga.

Looking at the broken sickle in his hand without any change in expression, Mihawk used its remaining half to stab forcefully at Kuro's chest.

Kuro vanished from sight, but in the next moment, blood splattered as Mihawk's arm was severed at the elbow, leaving him writhing in unbearable pain.

"How interesting. You're this weak, yet fearless… Why aren't you afraid of me?" Kuro asked with mild curiosity, adjusting his glasses.

"Afraid of you? We'll meet again for another fight..." Mihawk's words trailed off as his head was severed from his body in a bloody spectacle.

Defeating a Level 13 NPC at the start was impossible.
