A New Legend

One Last Stop! part 1

The Town of the Beginning and End! Logue Town!

A week had passed since the Dark Blood Pirates had acquired their latest crew member, as the Flaring Moon had it's sails aimed towards the legendary Logue town, the town of beginning and end. The new crew member, Charity, had gotten along with the crew fairly well, with the exception of a certain girl who captained the Flaring Moon along with Ray.

Right now, Calico was trying to meditate, El was fixing up her swords that looked perfect, Luna was sitting on the deck with her back exposed as always, Sora was running around the ship with Ray chasing him and shouting at him about something. Charity was in the kitchen humming as she cooked up a meal, and Emerald was out near the figure head of the ship looking at the ocean and the map in her hands.

"Get back here Damn it!" shouted Ray in ager as he jumped up toward Sora who was giggling. Sora glanced at Ray before side-stepping to the right. Ray crashed into the wood of the deck. Sora stared at Ray and laughed in a mockingly way. Ray hands clenched into fists as a tick mark appeared on his forehead. He raised his right fist and slammed it hard onto the deck, cracking it slightly. This made Sora and Luna jump. Luna looked over toward the bang to realize it was only Ray. Ray slowly started to rise and made a "Grrrr" sound like he was in the toughest battle he had fought in his entire life. El ran over and kicked Ray away from the place he had cracked the deck. "Move!"

Ray made a surprised sound as he flew toward the mast, where Sora had been standing. Sora jumped out of the way letting Ray crash into the mast head first. Calico looked down at Ray as a tick mark formed on his forehead. "Quiet it down, will you? I'm trying to meditate!"

Ray looked up at Calico with a blank expression. Calico stared back at Ray. Ray opened his mouth. "Fu-" Luna snapped her head toward Ray as time seemed to slow down. She quickly sprouted wings and like her life depended on it, she tackled Ray hard, shutting him up. "OW!"

Sora stared at Luna in confusion as he cocked his head to the side. Ray groaned as he sat up, he then looked at Luna. "What was that for?"

"Don't use such foul language around Sora!"

"Are you fu- I mean are you kidding me?"

"No I'm not! I'm not about to let you ruin his innocence!"

"How am I ruining his innocence? He's going to hear someday!"

Sora walked up in between them. "Um, what are you guys talking about?" he asked innocently. Luna glared at Ray for a split second before she smiled at Sora. "Nothing important Sora."

Ray got to his feet and grumbled as he walked away. "These girls always hitting me for the most stupid reasons..." He walked up toward the figure head to see Emerald leaning against the railing near the figure head. A gentle breeze swayed across them. He walked up and leaned against the railing next to Emerald. Emerald glanced at him, a brief thought that he might ask something unexpected. "Aren't you bored?" Emerald fell to the floor comically. "Of course he would say somthing like that."

Ray's eyes widened slowly. "Is that the island where Logue town is?" Emerald looked up ahead to see a small outline of an island up ahead. She quickly glanced at her map before nodding her head. "Yes! I finally get to see where the first and second Pirate Kings were executed!"

"Why do you want to see that?" asked Emerald in confusion. Ray turned to her and smirked. "Because when I become the third King of the Pirates, I'm going to be executed there too!"

Emerald's breath caught in between her throat. "What!" Ray didn't respond as he looked up ahead as the island came closer, the smirk turning into a smile. Ray then turned on his heels. "Well I'm going to go tell the others that we're almost there!" Emerald turned around to see Ray jump on the deck as screams of pain and happiness filled the deck. "Was that supposed to be a joke?"

When they arrived, they saw large marine vessels close to the harbor, so the Dark Blood Pirates decided to hide away their jolly roger and roll up the sails as a precaution. Since everyone was so eager, Emerald decided that the ship didn't need to be guarded, Ray didn't care. The seven pirates then split off to go shopping for supplies.

Right now, we follow Calico as he walks around town hoping to find a shop that can sell him a sword. He had visited two other shops but the prices were too high. "Damn! Why is everything so expensive?" Calico looked around and found a shop that seemed promising. It was called the "Arms shop." Calico entered the building to be greeted by an elderly man.

The man was short, with black hair that goes to the side of his head. He had tan skin and was wearing a green shirt. A distinct feature about him was his nose that was red. The man took a happy and surprised look when he saw Calico. "Why hello, my name is Ippon-Matsu. Are you here looking for a sword?"

Calico looked a basket that was filled with swords. "Yeah, I am. Do you have a katana that's sturdy and long?" Matsu took a deciding look before he seemed to remember something. "Yes we do!" He walked next to Calico and searched in another basket that next to the one Calico was looking through. He took out a katana that sheathed and showed it to Calico. He unsheathed it to reveal a shiny silver blade. "How about this one? It's name is Bi Shainingu." Calico looked at it before nodding. "Sure I'll take it. How much do you want?"

"200,000 beli." Calico raised an eyebrow. "Do you think you can lower that to 50,000 beli?"

Matsu shook his head. "Nope. Sorry, pay up 200,000 or you can't have it."

"I only have 50,000 beli..."

"You only have 50,000 beli!"

"Yeah."

"What makes you think I will sell you any of these for 50,000 beli?"

"Well do you have some swords that are worth 50,000 beli?"

"Yeah over there." Matsu scowled pointing at a rusty barrel to a corner. Calico sighed and walked over to the barrel. "Might as well check it out."

Calico took out one katana to find it very rusty. He took out another that snapped in half upon touching it. Calico searched the whole barrel, the swords breaking or looking worn out. He then found a katana that was sheathed that seemed to gain his interest. He grabbed it. He unsheathed it to find the blade to look brand new. The blade had a dusk blue color with pitch black swirls and waves from one end of the blade to the other. The handle was a dark brown that could easily be classified as black. The handle felt natural for Calico hold. He sheathed it and turned toward Matsu. He held up into the air. "What about this one?"

Matsu looked at the katana before his eyes widened in horror. He rushed toward Calico and snatched the sword. "You don't want this one! This sword is said to be cursed. I had a similar one like this once but this one is more deadly. Only a day after holding this, the swordsman or woman dies, for no reason." Calico smirked and grabbed the katana. "They say the strongest swordsman Roronoa Zoro, has a cursed sword. If I want to be the strongest swordsman and surpass Roronoa Zoro, I'm going to have to control a cursed sword." Matsu eyes widened as he looked at Calico, Calico's figure became over shadowed with Zoro's.

Calico unsheathed the sword. "If I can't control it, the price I pay is losing an arm. If I can, then the reward I gain is this katana." Matsu watched intensely. Calico threw the blade up and stuck his right arm out fully. The blade stopped ascending and started descending. The blade closed in on Calico's arm but instead of slicing it, it circled around his arm, missing it. The blade clanked against the floor as Calico smirked smugly. "I guess I keep it."

Calico grabbed the blade and sheathed it. He then reached into a pocket on his coat and pulled out the beli and shoved toward Matsu. "Here's 50,000 beli." Matsu shook his head. "No. You keep the katana for free." Calico raised an eyebrow before shrugging and putting the money back into his coat pocket. "You remind me of Roronoa Zoro."

That statement caught Calico's attention. "Back before he became the world's strongest swordsman, he visited this shop in search for two swords. One of those swords is the cursed sword he has currently. He did the exact foolish thing as you just did." Calico looked at the cursed sword in his left hand. "You know, I've been a fan of his ever since that day. You're that "Weather Detective" guy aren't you?"

Calico nodded. "Well you have yourself a fan." Calico looked at him and smiled. "Now I would probably give you the sword that passed down form my family for generations but Roronoa Zoro beat you to that. You don't mind do you?"

Calico shook his head. "Nah, I prefer using only one sword anyways. Um, thank you for the new katana. I'll make sure to take good care of it." Matsu nodded before remembering something. "Oh yeah! The katana is one of the 21 Ō Wazamono katanas. It's name is Nidai Kitetsu." Calico looked at the katana and nodded. He then turned and started walking out of the shop. When he was gone, Matsu turned and grabbed a newspaper that had Calico's full bounty on it. He then hung it up next to Zoro's first bounty. "I just passed on my dream to another passing swordsman did I?"
