UDON PRISONER MINE'S
Seen in Udon prison was Luffy training with his new teacher a once skilled swordsman named Hyogoro. Because of the kindness and care, Luffy gave to the elderly man when he was on the verge of death he has taken it upon himself to train Luffy the different type of armament haki Luffy strives for to defeat Kaido and free Wano.
"Think of that as Kaidos skin! Remember your defeat! Remember how useless brute force was against him! There's no time to waste, your enemy is a monster beyond gods! You must learn this in five days before the fire festival!" Hyogoro shouted with motivation and encouragement.
"He's beating that steel plate like it's made of jelly..." The prisoners said in aah and amazement.
"Uwaghhh!" Luffy shouted with fury.
"Remember Luffy-dono, don't just hit with brute force! Let what you call haki to flow into your body and guide it into your fist and release it!" shouted Hyogoro.
"Dammit, I keep only hitting with force," said Luffy annoyed.
"When you pulled those explosive collars off of our necks you were able to do it when you were pushed in desperation. You have technically already mastered that haki. Right now you just need to find that feeling and be more consistent with it, keep practicing," said Hyogoro.
"Gotcha gramps," said Luffy.
"Luffy-dono you are simply incredible. That willpower I feel from you goes beyond anything I have ever felt. I feel if you had more time to train you could give that bastard Kaido a run for his money. If only you had more then five days... wait a minute I just remembered something." Hyogoro thought to himself.
FLASHBACK: 60 years ago
"Master! I got *huff* here as fast *puff* as I could. What do you call me for," said a much younger Hyogoro out of breath.
"Ah yes, Hyogoro come with me, Its time I showed you something important," said the old sensei.
"Yes, master," said Hyogoro.*-
Hyogoro and his sensei walked along a path through a forest for 15 minutes finally reaching an old beat up cabin on a flat piece of stone on the side of a mountain.
"Here we are, come inside"
The Cabin was rather corroded and clearly abandoned, but other than that it was rather typical of any ordinary cabin.
"Master, what are doing here?"
"Underneath this cabin lies a secret kept for a day it may need to be used"
As he talks he takes a few floorboards from underneath of him and it reveals a flight of stairs leading downwards
"Cmon we're almost there"
As they walk down they finally make it to where Hyogoro's master wanted to show.
"What in the hell is this!?"
"This Hyogoro is a hidden underground shrine capable of sending someone to another world."
"Another world? What kind of world is it?" asked Hyogoro.
"That I do not know, however, what I do know is that a lot of time in that other world is only a few days in this one. My great ancestors have kept this a secret for the day it may need to be used by someone for when Wano is in great grieve. A day may come where a warrior with great willpower will need all he can get. If that time comes I need you to bring him here, you will know who that will be when great willpower is shown.
BACK TO PRESENT TIME
"Luffy-dono," shouted Hyogoro
"What is it gramps," asked Luffy
"We are going on a trip, I will explain everything to you on the way"
As they headed out Hyogoro explained to Luffy everything he was told on that day and how this could give Luffy the time he needs to train not just his new armament haki, but take himself to the next level to fight Kaido.
"We're here," said Hyogoro.
"Whoa, this place is so cool," said Luffy with enthusiasm.
"Alright Luffy stands in the center of the circle," told Hyogoro.
Luffy listened and obliged to what he was told. "Alright what now gramps," asked Luffy.
"Remember when you used that willpower to knock out the guards. You need to do that here."
"Oh you mean conquerors haki, okay I can do that," Luffy began to focus and shot out a bit of conqueror's out in the air.
As soon as Luffy used his haki the ground began to shake and a portal started to open up.
"Now go Luffy-Dono, when your body starts fading in that world that's when you will know your time is almost up. You will come back to that spot once the time is up," explained Hyogoro.
"You got it, gramps, I'll come back even stronger so I can kick Kaido's ass!"
As Luffy headed towards the portal he gave a thumbs up and did his classic smile towards Hyogoro. As soon as Luffy entered the portal began to close in on itself and soon completely disappeared.
"See you in a few days Luffy-dono good luck."
TO BE CONTINUED
Authors notes: Kinda a slow start I know, but I needed to think of a way for Luffy to enter a new world without having him die or something like that. Hope you enjoyed.
