Tokyo, Karakura High School

In Class 1-3, by the window in the last row, Chiba Akira was sound asleep on his desk.

The warm sunlight streamed through the window, casting a gentle glow over his short black hair and handsome face.

"Akira~"

"It's time to go home~"

Someone gently poked his arm.

"Mmm..."

Chiba Akira stirred from his slumber, blinking groggily. As he raised his head, a figure came into view.

Long orange hair cascaded down her back, paired with skin as smooth as porcelain and a stunningly curvaceous figure.

Wearing a typical JK uniform with white cotton socks, she looked like a pure anime high school girl stepping straight into reality.

"Oh, it's you, Orihime."

"Ahhh, is school over already?"

Yawning, Chiba Akira glanced at her, his eyes inadvertently drawn to her smooth, shapely legs.

Encased in white cotton socks, her legs looked even more alluring, tempting enough to make one want to reach out and touch them.

And, truth be told, he often did.

"Eep!"

Feeling his gaze, Orihime Inoue seemed to recall something. She instinctively brought her legs together, her face flushing red as she nodded shyly.

"Yes, school's over. But Miss Hiratsuka isn't happy about you sleeping in class again."

Chiba Akira waved off her concern lazily, stretching as he stood.

He was originally a college student in the Eastern Country, but after a car accident, he found himself reborn in this world as an orphan.

In middle school, he had befriended Orihime Inoue, Ichigo Kurosaki, and others, initially thinking he'd landed in the Bleach universe.

Three years passed.

Not only did he win over Orihime Inoue, but he also joined Ichigo's group.

However, upon entering high school, he started noticing familiar figures like Hiratsuka Shizuka, Yotsuya Miko, and Sawamura Spencer Eriri.

That's when it hit him—this was a crossover anime world.

Miss Hiratsuka, whom Orihime mentioned, was none other than the teacher Hiratsuka Shizuka. Thinking of her, Chiba Akira casually reassured Orihime:

"Don't worry about it."

"I ranked first in last week's test."

"She wouldn't bother giving me trouble over something so trivial."

Smirking, he added inwardly, Especially considering what happened last night. She should be thanking me instead.

"That's a relief!"

"Alright, let's head home," Orihime said, visibly relaxing.

She grabbed their packed bags, looking up at him with a grin, as though waiting for praise.

"You're amazing, Orihime. Let's go."

Akira praised her with a chuckle, then walked out of the classroom. Orihime, like a dutiful wife, happily followed him.

"I'm home!"

Orihime hadn't gone back to her own house but instead followed Akira to his apartment.

Familiar with the surroundings, she brightened up and immediately headed to the shoe cabinet. She swapped her shoes for pink bunny slippers, a sight that made it obvious she visited often.

"I'll go prep the ingredients!"

Without waiting, she dashed to the kitchen.

Since school in Japan ended early, she always prepared ingredients ahead of time, so she could quickly cook dinner when she returned home in the evening.

"Alright, I'll watch some TV."

Chiba Akira grabbed a cold cola from the fridge. Settling onto the sofa, he turned on the TV to kill time.

But just as he relaxed, a cold, mechanical voice echoed in his mind.

[Ding!]

[Dimensional Card System Activated!]

[Welcome! You've received a Newcomer Gift Pack x1. Please check your inventory.]

"What's this—!"

Chiba Akira froze, gripping the cola tightly as the system's information flooded his mind.

After a moment of stunned silence, he finally processed it, sitting dumbfounded on the sofa with a complex expression.

"I have a cheat system too?"

"It's just… a little late—by sixteen years."

The system, called the Dimensional Card System, had a simple premise: draw cards to obtain rewards.

These rewards could be items, bloodlines, or abilities from different worlds.

Rewards were divided into five tiers: N, R, SR, SSR, and UR.

They could also be upgraded—ten lower-tier cards could fuse into one higher-tier card (e.g., 10 N cards = 1 R card).

(Note: Average stats for an adult male are 5 points per attribute.)

"This status… is so empty."

"And 'subpar' is just insulting," Akira muttered, his mouth twitching.

He had been fighting alongside Ichigo and brawling with delinquents since middle school. To be labeled "subpar" felt like a slap in the face.

Shaking it off, he focused on the Newcomer Gift Pack in his inventory.

"System!"

"Open the Newcomer Gift Pack and use the daily draw!"

[Congratulations! You've received Low-Grade HP Potion x1.]

[Congratulations! You've received an SR Item Card x1. Would you like to use it?]

"That's it?"

Akira stared blankly at the two items in his hand. He had expected more from the Newcomer Gift Pack, but apparently, this was all it offered.

Sighing, he decided to use the SR Item Card.

The card broke apart, transforming into a roulette wheel filled with various items from different worlds:

[Senzu Bean] [Magnifying Lamp] [Beetle Arrow] [Kämpfer Bracelet]...

As the wheel spun, the pointer finally stopped on a cup filled with a purple liquid.

[Congratulations!]

[You have obtained the Frozen Devil Fruit (SR).]
