Chapter 42
“Everyone, Konpirate. I’m Mare Pirate-chan of Wakamo Corporation’s Navy!”
The day after successfully ruining the collab.
Mare Pirate began her stream as a VTuber, as usual.
Though she hadn’t been invited into the area Wakamo Inarizushi lived, she didn’t think she could casually enter it either.
After all, isn’t trust the most important thing?
Even in Japan, if you want to learn sushi-making from a master, you have to observe for 30 years.
Since she’s a smart, elite Climber, one year should be enough for her.
Even after the stream ended, she studied about VTubers and, although reluctant, contacted her brother to ask for advice.
Surprisingly, he gave her various tips instead of the scolding she feared.
Copyright-free music to use on streams, karaoke programs to sing on, microphone and audio settings, and so on…
It made her realize how different a pro VTuber with years of experience was.
Though she had thought of him as a pathetic older brother who ran away from karate,
it seemed he had his own expertise.
“Listeners! I hope you’re having a good day today! Welcome to the new sailors as well! I welcome you aboard Mare Pirate’s ship!”
– Ahoy! Come on in!!
– Once you board this ship, you can never leave.
– There always has to be a captain for the Flying Dutchman…
– But wait, do we even have a ship?
– Of course, don’t we? Probably a warship.
– I heard some pirates don’t even have a ship lol.
– That’s cosplay pirates lolol.
– I’m still a youthful 20-something!!
– But the way you act, it’s like someone from Gimhae.
┗ The viewers caused an uproar as soon as they entered. Mare Pirate called her viewers “sailors” in their fan name.
Wakamo Corporation had an unusual policy of not requiring detailed profiles.
It felt like they relied on their overwhelming character portrayal to dominate.
This unique trait fit a Climber VTuber company with the theme of being ultra-realistic.
“Welcome, everyone. I’ve prepared something you’ll like!”
Mare Pirate boldly claimed she had prepared games for the otaku viewers and told them to look forward to it.
With a click, the Steam client appeared on the screen, showcasing a library packed with various games. The viewers couldn’t hide their amazement.
– How many adult games are there, damn it!!!
– Excuse me, how did you know just by looking?!
– You’ve got stuff here that’s impossible to find in Korea…!
– Damn, One Piece is here?!
– 580 adult games in the adult category??
– Are you the legendary Hong Gildong of adult games?
“You guys like this, don’t you?”
– Damn it, I can’t argue with that.
– Wait, you’re not planning to play adult games, right???
– How is your debut stream going to be an adult game?
– That’s illegal in Korea!!!
– It’s illegal in Japan too.
– National laws are meaningless before “The Navy’s Justice!!”
– Wow lol, almost mistook her for a pirate~
While naturally scrolling down, Mare Pirate selected a game featuring overly anthropomorphic animal girls flaunting their chests.
Viewers urgently pleaded with her to stop and asked if she was serious. Then a quick-witted viewer shouted, “She didn’t turn on the translator!!”
Fortunately—or unfortunately—a warning popped up saying the game couldn’t be played in the current country.
Immediately after, a message requesting verification appeared, as it detected an overseas login. Mare Pirate leaned back dramatically, looking disappointed.
“No! My cute animal friends!”
– No, they’re not cute at all.
– It’s really an adult game!!!
– At least, please, set an age restriction if you’re going to play it!!
“But my brother said it’s fine if I don’t turn on the adult mode. Isn’t Korea supposed to be a Confucian country? Even masturbation is banned?”
– Pardon? What did you say?
– Argh!! I can’t hold back anymore!!
– No, hold it in, damn it.
– Masturbate, masturbate, masturbate.
– Hearing that from a woman has shocked me more than anything else…
– Please think before you speak….
– The sea’s ultimate no-holds-barred wild woman has lost it….
Seeing the viewers’ reactions, Mare Pirate belatedly turned on the translator to check their comments.
But she tilted her head, wondering if it really mattered as long as there wasn’t direct nudity or explicit scenes.
After all, her brother said guys like pervy stuff, which was why he recommended it to her.
He even claimed there was no better way to gain popularity than with sexual innuendos.
But as a regular person, her common sense was seriously lacking.
Mare Pirate thought the limits of a VTuber’s boundaries could be pushed further.
She had learned from “underground” VTubers in a company named Octopus Co. who couldn’t even be seen in Korea.
If they could do it, surely adult games weren’t a big deal, right?
“Seriously though? Korea doesn’t even sell erotic books in bookstores… So uptight…”
– Ah, why are tears coming out all of a sudden….
– I’m an adult… Why… Why can’t I see adult content…?
– Naturally fading into extinction, aren’t we?
– The internet has all the friends and erotica you need!!
– At this point, let’s just archive everything, shall we?
“Then, why not just get a girlfriend?”
– Take that back, you bastard!!
– What?!
– If we could do that, would we even be here?!
– Sobs, I’ve never even held a girl’s hand since I was born….
– Argh!! Japan is torturing Koreans again!!
– What is dating…? Is it edible…?
– I don’t even know how to meet girls…
“A person’s dreams don’t end!!! Who cares if people laugh at you? Exercise, make an effort. Sailors, you can do it! Just lower your standards a bit.”
– I already lowered them to be here.
– While I’m at it, let me lower them another dimension lol.
– Why is the captain so loud?
– Well, you have to give commands on a ship.
– The mic is unnecessary when it comes to our Blue Navy Pirates’ captain.
“And you know, they say if a guy’s a virgin until his 30s, he becomes a wizard? If you’re saying you didn’t manage that, then you’re not a virgin anymore! Wow, totally lucky ☆, huh?”
Mare Pirate winked and bit her finger, showing no awareness of any issue with her words.
Her expression was blank, as if she wasn’t thinking about anything, and even the viewers felt their intelligence drop just by watching her.
By now, the “sailors” had given up trying to make sense of the captain’s words and instead embraced the chaos for sheer entertainment.
It was past the point of critique; they were ready to spread her quotes around the community as memes.
“Alright, do you like Mare Pirate? Then look at this cute, sexy, and provocative Mare Pirate!
Don’t Koreans like school uniforms too? Look, it’s a cute sailor outfit!”
– Ah, sure.
– There’s no sex appeal at all…
– No matter how weird our preferences are, a monkey is a bit much…
– Are you calling Japanese people monkeys right now?
– Please spare me!!
– Seriously, why is Hajime Ichigo the only normal one in this group?
“But I still want to play a game. Actually, this account belongs to my brother. He lent it to me when I told him I was debuting as a VTuber. Look at all these adult games that you can’t even see in Korea! Come to Mare Pirate’s stream and check them out! Wow, what’s this pixel art game? ‘Futanari Dungeon’? What’s futanari? Should I not do this?”
– Please don’t do anything and take your hands off!!!
– Every comment she makes gives the sailors a thrill of fear.
– Why are we scared when it’s not even a horror game? Lolol.
– She’s publicly executing her brother!!! She’s hanging him online!!!
– The little sister is trying to destroy her brother!!
“Why not? Can’t a man play adult games? My brother shakes his butt and acts cutesy in front of men. He’s practically a pro in the VTuber industry. Anyway… Koreans are so pitiful for not even being able to play erotic games. Should Mare Pirate buy them from Japan and give them to the sailors? Direct imports of erotic manga from Japan!”
– Does the navy sell erotica these days?
– A revolutionary new export. This will definitely succeed.
– Korea, destroyed for smuggling illegal goods.
– Hey! The navy’s raiding us!!!
– Then where do we watch adult content?
– Apparently, the navy sells it.
– Lolol, they’re stealing our jobs.
– What exactly does your brother do…?
“Alright, I studied a lot! In Korea, don’t they call listeners ‘moneybags’? Hey, moneybags!”
– Sister?
– No, seriously, where does she learn this stuff?
– Not a single piece of information she has is correct…
– Now I understand why people are told not to use the internet~
– I get why computers are banned now~
“Where did I learn it? Otaku sites! It’s blue, so it matches the navy theme, don’t you think?”
– A very familiar blue site. Is this better or worse?
– Well, it’s Korea’s largest gaming community, so no issues. None at all.
– This is definitely Korea’s fault….
– Auntie, stop drinking and do something about this girl….
– Korea is ruining people.
– Stop using internet communities!!!!
– I can’t believe we’re the ones saying this!!!
“I heard from across the sea… that every night, orca penises and zebra mating clips are posted here! Don’t you want to see them?”
– No, I really don’t…
– Why does that even exist?
– What on earth are these people watching?
– I’m going insane, seriously. This is too much!!
– Captain! What’s that sound in the background?
“Well, since I’m a captain from across the sea~ I thought I’d show you sailors food that’s more expensive than Japanese beef. Let’s eat while watching!”
Mare Pirate surprisingly turned on her camera in an organized manner for a VTuber broadcast(?).
Fortunately—or perhaps unfortunately—while the sailors worried about her clumsiness,
they ended up screaming at the horrifying sight that filled the screen.
“Koreans mix their food too, right? Ta-da! It’s Hevomeshi! I heard Koreans love honeybees too! It’s fried honeybees! And these are giant water bug larvae—they taste like shrimp. For the side dish, we have grasshoppers braised in soy sauce. Koreans also eat insects, don’t they? Fascinating. I even brought beondegi (silkworm pupae)!”
– Aaaargh!!!
– Honeybees!!!
– This is not bibimbap!!!
– Please, just play animal mating clips instead!!!!
– This is wrong, this is wrong, this is wrong!!
– Just eat mint chocolate instead!!!
The screen was filled with a gruesome sight:
honeybees scattered over white rice, shriveled larvae, and a dish of braised grasshoppers.
On the side, there was a canned silkworm pupa bought from a convenience store
.The unexpected menu threw the sailors into a state of panic, beyond mere shock.
“They’re rich in protein and expensive, so they taste good! Besides, I’m allergic to mint, so I can’t eat mint chocolate. Mint chocolate with Makgeolli? You pour them together, don’t you? How do you even eat that? Anyway, to sweeten this dish, I’ll add some candy.”
– ?????????
– Why are you adding candy!!!
– No, you’re leaving the wrapper on!!!
“Huh? You can eat candy wrappers too, can’t you?”
– Pardon?
– Does she even know what common sense is?
– Ugh… Ugh…
– Mommy, I miss you… Wahh…
“In Japan, they make them out of starch… I guess Korea doesn’t. Fine, I’ll leave the candy out. I also learned how to mix Somaek! Korea has some great traditions.”
Without giving the sailors time to respond, Mare Pirate pulled out a bucket that appeared on screen.
She opened a bottle of beer and soju, poured them in a 1:1 ratio, mixed them, and raised the bucket with a giggle.
She swirled it around and chugged it all at once.
“Ahhh.”
The empty bucket fell to the floor with a clunk.
– …?? Did she just finish that in seconds?
– You’ll die if you drink like that!!!
– Somaek isn’t supposed to be like that!!!
– Please, manager! What are you doing?!!!
– What did Japan send us, damn it!!!
– This is Japan’s conspiracy!!!
– Don’t burp directly into the mic!!!
“Oh, right. I heard Koreans can’t mix raw eggs with rice? Well, eating it raw isn’t good for you!!”
– Raw eggs aren’t the problem here.
– Can this even be called a stream anymore?
– Uh, I just joined—is this a punishment stream?
– No, this is the normal broadcast.
– Sorry, I’ll leave now.
– Once you’re aboard, you’re a slave to this ship.
– Are we Korean slaves aboard a Japanese captain’s ship…?
– At least she won’t feed us mint chocolate.
– Please, just let me eat mint chocolate instead.
Despite the sailors’ desperate pleas, cries, and appeals, Mare Pirate continued her unique style of broadcasting.
She casually chewed bugs and drank soju straight from the bottle as if it were water, chatting with her viewers without even getting drunk.
In Korea, eating candy with the wrapper on and consuming raw eggs are considered taboo.
“I’m so happy because the sailors are all so kind to their captain~,” she said.
Mare Pirate then poured soju and beer into a bucket, tossed in a lemon, and downed it.
After a satisfying and filling meal, she declared her intention to explore Korean online communities and clicked on a page.
“Wow! Orca penises! They’re huge!!”
– What is the manager even doing!!!
– Aaah! Aaaargh!!!
– A Japanese person just unleashed poison on their stream!!
– Please, master, save us! Save us!!!
※※※
“Friends, today Hajime Ichigo is here too~ Come on in.”
With a smile that might be mocking or genuinely sweet, paired with unnervingly red eyes,
her voice was soft, kind, and beyond that—simply adorable.
Like any other day, Ichigo started her hand cam stream.
In the corner of the screen, the words “Hajime Ichigo’s Korean Study: Day 24” were displayed.
Though she couldn’t properly hold a pencil, Ichigo diligently traced letters in a Korean elementary school textbook.
“Bbuh-joo… Jja-dong-jja… Ddu-reok…”
– Wow, Ichigo is doing so well.
– Can I give advice on how to hold the pencil?
– Stop! Children grow with love!!!
– Are you trying to discourage our Ichigo?
– Say one more word, and I’ll turn on my combat mode.
Working hard, she asked viewers how to read certain letters and thanked them sincerely each time.
“[What did you have for breakfast today?]”
“Whut did I haff for bwekfast tuday?”(Saying in Korean)
– I’m eating Ichigo’s love right now.
– Aww, look how cute she is… Study while you eat!
– I don’t have money, but I want to donate to her…!!
– Honestly, she probably earns more than us!!
– So you’re not donating?
– I already did.
– Hahaha!
“Friends, thanks~ I’ll use the money to buy snacks!”
– Oh, really? That’s so cute!
– What are you drawing now?
“Friends?”
Though the drawings were so poorly done they were barely recognizable, Ichigo proudly showed off the pictures she had drawn of her viewers.
Her attempts to write their usernames were endearing, prompting an outpouring of warm comments in the chat.
“I see her every day~ Sitting in the same seat on the school bus~♪,” she sang.
– Who even requested this song?
– The manager did.
– Wait, why is the manager even watching this stream?
– Did they abandon Mare Pirate? Lolol.
– That’s not the manager—it’s the Chairman.
– Excuse me?
After finishing her Korean study, Ichigo transitioned to a singing stream.
Holding a mic, her character swayed left and right while singing, and her fans waved glowsticks in the chat.
“This is for my friends! I practiced a lot!”
– I’m so happy… I’m overjoyed!!
– Ichigo even sings happy birthday songs—she’s the best!
– Hajime-chan will sing anything you request.
– Her expression looks like she’s ready to attack, yet she’s so kind, lolol.
Ichigo sang a total of 12 songs—so much that her viewers were completely satisfied.
Afterward, she visited her fan café, viewing every single drawing of herself and pressing “heart” on each one.
Her diligent gathering of fan-made art was as adorable as a kitten collecting its favorite toy, encouraging even more art submissions.
She carefully read every request post for about two hours, typing out comments in Korean with the help of her “eagle typing” skills.
Because of this, posts about Ichigo became the second most common topic on the fan café, trailing only posts about Wakamo Inarizushi.
“Let’s play a game now!!”
Finally, Ichigo started playing [PUBG: Battlegrounds] and [Helldivers 2] with her friends, chatting through the mic while playing.
Her excellent commands, sharp shooting skills, climber physique, and keen hearing allowed her to win even the most challenging matches effortlessly.
“You guys are the best! Thanks for playing with me!”
“[Please call me again, sob sob…]”
“[Thanks for playing with me…]”
“[La-la-la~ Dum dum~ Dum dum dum~]”
– These people’s brains are melting, lolol.
– Honestly, it’s understandable, lolol.
– No matter how bad things get, Ichigo never swears at anyone.
– Meanwhile, Mare Pirate smashed someone’s head out of frustration…
– At this point, isn’t Mare Pirate just the villain?
While Wakamo Corporation had wildly contrasting VTubers, Ichigo’s streams were heartwarming to the point of making viewers reluctant to leave.
On the other hand, Mare Pirate’s streams showcased chaos like nothing else seen in Korea.
However, because both the Korean and Japanese governments supported her as a climber, even her most reckless antics didn’t get her banned.
The manager, having given up, was now watching Ichigo’s stream instead.
Though it hadn’t been long since Ichigo joined the studio, the state of her room—piled high with trash—suggested that she had already gone astray as a human being.
Meanwhile, their boss, spiritual leader, and the one who allowed them free rein to grow as VTubers, Wakamo Inarizushi, also started her stream.
– Huh? Why is the host wearing that outfit today?
– It’s pretty, but weren’t you climbing the tower?
– Are you returning to using the clipper because you’ve gained two new members?
– It’s pretty, but are you sure it’s okay to wear that?
The Believers were unusually concerned.
It was understandable since Wakamo always insisted on wearing her traditional, flowing sleeves—an outfit that seemed like a mix between a kimono and hanbok.
VTuber models didn’t need wardrobe changes, but perhaps the large corporation had convinced her otherwise.
“Greetings, greetings! I am Wakamo Inarizushi! Your idol has arrived! You are granted an audience! Hello, hello, hello!”
Today, Wakamo’s energy seemed unusually high.
“Today, I thought I’d quickly climb five floors!”
With such an absurd remark, the Believers could only react with question marks above their heads.
Why was Wakamo so cheerful about climbing five floors of the Tower, all while dressed as if she were heading out on a picnic, wearing a frilly blouse and a skirt?
Surprisingly, Wakamo wasn’t high-spirited; she was nervous.
“Mare Pirate! I parked on the 25th floor of Incheon Tower too!!”
Mare Pirate, who had reached the 25th floor of the Incheon Tower in just two days, happily informed Wakamo that they could climb together.
Despite her carefree appearance, Mare Pirate was the Fist King’s Daughter, a climber with a record of conquering a 40-floor Tower.
Although the difficulty had increased slightly, she explained that it was manageable due to her experience and existing strategies corresponding to the heightened difficulty.
She wasn’t aiming for the Complete Conqueror tier and simply followed the known strategies, which made her progress remarkably fast!
So now, both Hajime Ichigo and Mare Pirate were waiting for Wakamo on the 25th floor.
A boss making her VTuber employees wait?
“If I don’t make it to the 25th floor today, I’ll commit Seppuku.”
– What…?
– She’s doing it again.
– Don’t try to understand it, Believers. Just accept it.
