The Wind-Wind Swordsman

Childhood Arc (2)

Hello! KsST here!

improvement!

Enjoy!

P.S There will be some swearing in this :)

8 Years have past since the disastrous event on Draco island and I became 17.

After meeting Garp and following him, I've become stronger thanks to his

rigorous, yet helpful training.

I've mastered all 3 types of Haki, as well as growing physically stronger.

And also…

"Damn! Just let me hit you already!"

"Luffy I told you already, you can't physically hit me since I'm a logia user."

"Urgggghhh. Gomu-Gomu no Pistol!"

Yes, I ate a devil's fruit; the Wind-Wind fruit to be exact, which turned my body into wind, and untouchable physically unless I allowed, or when someone used Haki.

Devils fruits that give elemental abilities are called logia, and are very rare.

Although, I came across one by pure coincidence.

Few years ago, when a pirate named Shanks visited the island, he had brought two devil fruits with him.

After partying at Makino's bar, Shank's pirate members all fell asleep.

During that time, Luffy was searching for more food.

"Kay I'm still hungryyyyyy."

"Okay Luffy. Jesus you eat too much you know that? Hahaha."

"But I- Hey look here! Fruits!"

"Fruits? They look a bit weird though."

"Some say food that look weird are more tasty than the normal ones!"

"But it doesn't matter if it looks weird or not, as long as it's food you jus-"

Before I could finish teasing him, Luffy shoved one of the two fruits into my mouth.

*Gulp* *Cough* *Cough*

"Euuughhhhh that's gross!"

*Gulp*

"Yeah you're right! Eww."

And that's how Luffy and I become Devil Fruit users.

After Shanks found out, he went crazy and it took 30 minutes to calm him down.

But thanks to that, Luffy and I were able to become stronger.

*Sigh* "I still can't beat you even if you let me touch you!"

"Well Luffy I did train more than you. Don't worry you'll get stronger."

For some reason, Luffy couldn't learn Haki techniques yet. We thought it was a side effect of the Devil Fruit. And since I used Haki before eating the fruit, it didn't matter

to me.

When Luffy found out he couldn't use it yet, it took long time for me and Ace calm him.

"Oy Kay, Luffy!"

Luffy and I turned around, seeing Ace in front of a small wooden boat.

Ace, who was a year older than me and 3 years older than Luffy, also ate a Devil fruit called the Flame-Flame fruit.

Ace is a logia just like me, and he was able to use fire at will.

Today was the day where Ace takes his first step into the world.

"I'll see you guys around."

""Bye Ace!""

Ace got on the wooden boat, and let the waves take him into the ocean.

"Well, Garp should be here any moment now."

"Are you sure you don't want to become a pirate Kay?"

"Yes Luffy, I promise Garp that I would become a Marine remember?"

"Yea but still…"

Today was also the day where I was going to join the Marines to protect the innocent, and keep the promise made on the marine ship 8 years ago.

"Don't make that long face now hahaha."

"Urggghh I not gonna give up on you!"

Luffy wanted me to join his pirate crew for the last 8 years, but I continued to reject him.

"Listen Luffy, after you become a pirate, promise that you won't hurt the innocent."

"Of course!"

The only reason I let Luffy become a pirate was because this promise.

Night came, and so did Garp and the Marine ship.

I began to say goodbye to Makino, the Mayor, and everyone else.

"Make the village proud Kay."

"Stay safe Kay."

The mayor and Makino seemed to worry too much. I could see it on their faces.

"Hahaha this kid will be fine!"

Garp laughed, and so did everyone else.

"Kay! Don't forget! I'm still going to leave a spot for you in my crew!"

"Luffy! Don't cause too much trouble!"

Without looking back, I walked on to the ship.
