The Secret Island – 5 Years later
"A lot has changed in the last few years," I think to myself as I am doing my sword practises, which I do believe I have excelled greatly in as I can now use two swords in a fight meaning I can use two and one sword style or as they are otherwise known as Nitoryu and Ittoryu (A/N: The names that are used for these styles in One Piece are taken from the Japanese way of saying 1 & 2 - Ichi & Ni).
I am now able to use proper actual swords to fight which I believe that I've done considerably well in training how to use swords in combat, as during my time in the last few years I have had to fight local pirate groups that have strayed too close to my island when I am sailing away or to it in my Boat/Ship which I have personalised with waterproof paint and a flag with it which is a white flaming X shape with a feral dark blue Wolf over it on a Black Flag.
The attacks and uses of my Devil Fruits Abilities have been very nearly mastered, as some of the abilities that I can do at the moment with this power is clearly very difficult and dangerous to do from my experimentations and daily training over the years and some of it should only be used as a last resort when fighting.
I list in my mind the different uses that my Aura powers can do and be used for which is:
Aura Port (Yellow Aura) – Allows the user to teleport in almost any direction, long and short distances; but this depends on the user's control of their powers and if the user knows the direction/place or general area where they are teleporting for it to work properly.
Aura Gate (Yellow Aura) – This move creates a portal/door out of aura that allows the user to store items and certain things without the use/need of a bag and is all placed inside a pocket dimension that is made out of Aura. It can also be used in combination with 'Aura Port' to allow more than one person to travel through the Gateway/Aura Dimension allowing a large group to reach a certain destination without the need for walking or travelling a long way to reach their intended destination, (A/N: The user will need to be saying "Aura Port-Gate" while doing this move to activate and use the special ability) but it takes time to do and create as it is very draining if used too many times making the user very tired or weak.
Aura Streak (Red Aura) – The user crosses a distance very quickly by channelling aura into the person's body but mainly the legs and its muscles, this can also be used to increase the reflexes and agility of the user allowing them to dodge or evade an attack very fast and therefore keeping the person safe and from harm.
Aura Jump (Red Aura) – The user again channel's energy into their legs and its muscles but it is instead used for jumping long distances and high altitudes when jumping from a flat-like surface.
Aura Sphere (Yellow Aura) – The user creates small to medium-sized spheres of aura energy that can explode on contact with a hard surface, by the command of the user or when they hit their intended target (A/N: Small Sized Sphere = tiny but powerful explosions, Medium Sized Sphere = large and destructive explosions).
Aura Rope/Whip (Yellow Aura) – The user creates a rope/whip of aura energy for capturing enemies or for a weapon against opponents depending on the chosen style of this ability.
Aura Wave (Yellow Aura) – The user creates a wave of aura energy around them by charging it from their body and then blasts it outwards that can knock back opponents, therefore giving the person room to fight properly and if charged up enough it can knock them out from the power behind this attack.
Aura Cannon (Yellow Aura) – The user creates a rocket like attack that is released from the users hands; the attack is charged from the person's hands and can devastate enemies if hit when released (A/N: Is similar to the Kamehameha move/technique in Dragon ball Z).
Aura Moon (Yellow Aura) – The user creates a large ball of Aura energy that is very destructive when used and is only for a last resort when facing a very powerful foe (A/N: Can take some time for this technique to work as it requires a large amount of Aura energy to be gathered).
Aura Punch (Yellow Aura) – The user gathers aura energy in their hands and uses this as an attack when forming hands into a fist.
Aura Kick (Yellow Aura) – The user gathers aura energy in their feet and legs and uses this to make their kicks more powerful and strong.
Aura Palm (Yellow Aura) – The user makes the palm of their hands to be filled with Aura energy, it is used to push opponents back with force which can harm or damage them if struck by the energy filled palm (A/N: It is much like the move Force Palm in Pokémon, but this one can cause internal injury instead of Paralysis).
Strong Aura (Red Aura) – The user uses their aura to make their strength much more advanced by channelling the energy into their muscles and bones; thus making them twice as strong as they were before.
Aura Blade (Yellow Aura) – The user channels aura through their sword/sword's which makes any attack or cut from the weapon very powerful against opponents. The attack's are separated by how bright the colour of the aura is which shows the amount of energy used for the ability and strength of the attack, (A/N: If it is pale yellow it has the lowest amount of energy being used for attack but if it is a very bright solid yellow it is using a lot of energy for an attack) it can even break and destroy other people's weapon's if used with enough force and energy.
Aura Shock (Yellow Aura) – The user channels their aura around their body and changes the energy to act similar to electricity which can paralyse opponents if hit by it or electrocute them. This is because it makes the opponents own natural aura short out momentarily, thus causing terrible and excruciating pain for the opponent but it knocks them out depending on the amount of power is used with this ability or if the opponent has a very low pain tolerance or threshold thus making them black out from said pain.
Aura Shield (Yellow Aura) - The user channels their aura around their body and changes the energy's density to act like a body shield to escape injury, the user can make this shield move and protect others by shifting the shield from them to the other person as the user is the one using and controlling it (A/N: Good against bullets and ranged/explosive weapons) but it can be channelled from the person to their own shield if they have one which makes it act as a conductor for the users Aura energy.
Aura-Sight (Yellow & Red Aura) – The user changes their eyes to be able to easily see anyone's own aura (A/N: The users whole eyes will be completely lit up in yellow and red coloured Aura with one eye being red and the other yellow or vice versa), this can be good at picking out enemies or companions/friends along with innocent's (A/N: It is much like Assassins Creed's "Eagle Vision") and making it easier to find certain people who need to be found by user of this ability.
Aura Intimidation (Yellow Aura) - It makes the users own Aura stand out more and take the form of their inner fighting spirit/strength which is used to intimidate enemies/opponents and powerful animals into submitting to the persons will or be used as a warning to said opponents so that they can surrender before attacking (A/N: It is like Toriko's Intimidation technique but it is a yellow hued large wolf or Werewolf instead of a pinkish-red demon).
Aura Manipulation - The User takes different Aura techniques and Aura abilities, then warps/shapes them into a form of attack or completely new ability.
The techniques for my powers has taken a lot of my time over these few years to be trained until I can use them at will but they have been most useful in fights but my fights with some pirates has made me a bit more well-known, especially the Marines who I have had to deal with when I am delivering the wanted pirates who have Bounties on their heads and now people call me a Bounty Hunter nicknamed 'The Blue Wolf' which is because of my flag on the ship.
But some things have benefited me when I have deafened the pirates that I encounter as I do take some of their treasure that they have either stolen or collected themselves but make sure that it is things that are not noted or recorded to have been stolen by the different pirates which are two particular swords that I had gotten a hold of 3 years ago but they came from two pirate groups that had fought each other over the sea while I was passing nearby but was nearly hit by their cannon fire.
Naturally from this I was annoyed at nearly being hit by them and ended up defeating these two pirate groups but when I had looked in their ships, after tying them up and knocking them out or killing a few of the pirates who would not go down easily, I had found a single well made and designed Katana on each ship that I had liked a lot so I took them and left them safe on my ship while dropping both pirate groups off at a nearby Marine base and collecting the reward/bounty from them.
Afterwards I had gotten home to my Island, where I used my Library to research the swords as I had guessed that they were valuable and well made when I looked at them which I was correct about as one sword was an O Wazamono Grade Sword named the Black Midnight Sword or Kuroi Mayonaka Katana.
The other sword was very shocking as it was an actual Saijo O Wazamono Grade Sword which I knew was the same grade sword as Dracule Mihawk's Yoru - the Black Sword - and one of the greatest swords ever made, its name was Yamato which I knew translated to Devil Blade (A/N: Same as the sword used in Devil May Cry by Vergil).
These swords were very rare and dangerously powerful, especially when I used my Aura powers with them especially Aura Blade. The swords are still amazingly strong when not channelling my Aura into them; I keep the swords on my person when I need them for use as the Midnight Katana is kept on my special/tool belt's sword slot and the Yamato on a strapped up sword holster that goes on my back with the handle being on my right side so I that I could draw it out with my left hand, while the first sword was on my left side where the sword slot for my belt was and could be drawn for my right hand.
Other weapons I have either found/bought or made have been useful like two black sheathed and handled Tanto blades that I had bought in Loguetown and had them strapped to the back of my belt with the scabbards of the Tanto's on either side of my back so that if I am in need of a small blade or knife in any situation, I can draw them out on for either hand and keep my opponents surprised and use them when I cannot use my abilities in any particular situation when I cannot use them and I'm tied up with strong ropes or use the small blades to cut the ropes off to escape as they are not very noticeable to people who may tie me up which has happened on occasion when a cocky pirate crew has 'captured' me, meaning that I have let myself be captured to steal their stuff and get their bounties by using the Tanto's to free myself.
Another useful item for fighting is a set of gloves that I had made from some strong black leather swatches from a Loguetown leather store; I had the gloves filled/lined with very small metal pieces into the back of the hand at the knuckles and fingers and again covered and stitched up with some of the same tough black leather that I also bought to help make new ones encase of damage received to said gloves, the reason for the gloves was to allow my hands to remain uninjured in a fight needing fists as the special weighted gloves help protect my hands from harm. It also allows more impact when punching and with my Aura attacks, it is even more powerful.
I can use all my weapons very well and with my Hybrid Martial Arts I am a very deadly and dangerous opponent to cross from my observations and rumours about me.
Loguetown – The next day
Today I was heading to the trading town as I needed a few things for my projects and some items that would be useful along with some errands that needed done, I am sailing on my ship and I've just entered the port for the town when I see a sight that excites and shock's me.
It is the Going Merry and it looks to have just landed to my dark brown eyes and my excitement grows even more when I see a very familiar straw hat wearing teenager chatting happily to who I recognise after a double take as the long-nosed Usopp who also seems very excited at seeing the town.
I hurriedly make my ship dock and tie it to the docks posts and walk into town as I make sure to keep my eye on the Strawhat Crew but then try to decide on who to follow and as I see Zoro standing and looking around which I can guess he is looking for a sword or weapon shop as I begin to see an idea begin to form in my mind on how to help him which hopefully will get me to meet the other Strawhat Crew later in the day.
I walk up to him slowly as I do not want to startle him and end up without a head soon after, I stand next to him and spoke out loud to him saying "Hey, do you need directions at all?" I see Zoro raise his eyebrow after turning to look at me and I can see him looking at my outfit which are black denim trousers with grey stitching, black shoes/boots with grey laces, a midnight black T-Shirt and a padded lined black jacket with white zipper's (A/N: Looks like the Jacket that Smoker wears but is different in colour and does not have the green fur on it) and my special black belt where he then sees my swords that are on my belt and back.
I smirk inside my mind as I can guess he is trying to see if I am a good swordsman after seeing my swords, He answers me back after a few more looks at me "Sure, thank's for helping" I wave his gratitude off and answer back smiling "No problem, I spend plenty of time in this town so I know lot about it and where to get the best stuff like swords for example."
I so want to laugh at Zoro's dumbfounded expression but I keep my cool as I can see his unspoken question and answer it for him "I kind of guessed by who you are, Roronoa Zoro" I see him tense a bit and go for his swords but I raise my hand in a peaceful gesture and continue speaking calmly "Relax, I'm not going to report you or anything besides I am an actual bounty hunter too, maybe you have heard of me from my nickname 'The Blue Wolf' ring a bell?"
I see Zoro's eyebrows go high at this name and he appears a little shocked as he spoke back to me "You mean the REAL Blue Wolf?, the man who has captured hundreds of pirates and more than a dozen bounties and made a fortune from it." I raise an eyebrow at this as I can guess that I must be more famous than I thought as I just thought that I was just a little famous at what I have done over the years, clearly I was wrong.
I just nod in return to his question with him and then Zoro asks "How did you know who I was as I am not carrying three swords at all?" I smirk this time openly and reply "I remember hearing rumours about you as they had said that you carried a white Katana and a dark green cloth on one of your arms which you fasten on your head when in fights while wearing a green Haramaki."
He blink's at my answer but then shrugs at this saying "Eh, well what can you do, could you show me the way..." he paused in his speech as he is clearly asking for my name as I smile and say "the names Jackson, O'Connell D. Jackson but most people call me Jack" I smile at the name I had made up from mixing up my name as I really wanted the name D in it, the same as the other characters who have the Will of D in them along with the symbol which I thought fitting for what I was tasked to do by Isis.
Zoro replies smirking "Well Jack, please show me the way?" I nod as we walk together as I tell him to follow me but we're stopped halfway there by a large gathered crowd covering the street and I hear sounds like a young woman's which I kinda recognise but cannot place it and as I turn to speak to Zoro about it when I notice that he has gone and appears to have went into the crowd to see what is going on as I can see his green hair in the group of people so I follow him and try to see what is happening and when I can see into the crowd's view I understand why the woman's voice sounded familiar as it is Tashigi's voice.
I watch the scene play as I remember it in the Anime out but I jump in and pick up the glasses before Zoro does as I do not want Zoro to get into trouble by breaking them accidentally like before in the show which annoyed me a little when I first saw it.
I hand the glasses to Tashigi who thanks me for it smiling and when she has them on I see her eyes focus on me and my swords as she seems a bit shocked at them which I jump back at as I do not want to cause a scene with how much I remember of how a knowledgeable person she is about swords, especially famous ones.
I turn to Zoro and say "Let's move on from here" I see him nod but in a more shocked and dazed state as he numbly follows me which I can guess from how he is at the moment that Zoro had recognised the features on Tashigi which where so much like Kuina's that it may have been unsettling for him.
We continue to make our way to the sword shop where I know Zoro's future swords are, we arrive there soon after and it seems that Zoro has shaken off his shock and surprise at Tashigi's features but as we head into the shop I turn my head curiously as I hear someone running in our direction and can see in the distance behind us that Tashigi is following us which makes me inwardly moan as I can see how this may play out for me but I shrug it off and go inside the store with Zoro who goes up to the shop owner of whom I now remember his name which is Matsu.
I fold my arms and stand next the wall near the barrel of swords that I can see from where I am the sword that Zoro should and will take, I watch the scene fold out with Matsu trying to haggle Zoro out of his Wado Ichimonji and Kuina's old sword but then I see Tashigi burst in and see the sword which she goes up to and it plays out from their as it did in the show with exception to her new glasses as her old one's are unbroken.
I listen as Tashigi talks about how she feels about the different graded swords and about how she hates pirates and people who use them for selfish reasons which makes me annoyed a bit as the swords I am using are not for selfish reasons so I speak up loudly after she's done and Zoro had cheekily threatened her "You know that is kinda biased about how you think you know how swords feel when you seem to be not much of a fighter yourself."
She look's shocked at seeing me as she replies "Your that guy from earlier" she takes a moment to process what I said and she gets a bit miffed and annoyed at me saying "Hey, what do you mean?" I smirk a bit and say "Well do you have a mysterious power to detect a sword's feelings" I pause as she seems a bit shocked at what I am saying but I continue speaking.
"I'll take that as a no, only a true swordsman or experienced warriors can tell what a swords/weapons personality and feelings are, From what I have seen so far and of your fight earlier along with how you caught your sword when the shop keeper threw it to you and how you caught it, which in turn made you fall and crash into the nearby weapons rack, thus making it clear that you do not have much skill or balance when handling a sword like that."
I turn the corner of my lips upwards slightly in a small smirk as I draw my swords out as her expression changes from being angry at my snide remarks to curious and astonished at my swords as she says in disbelief and wonder "It cannot be?"
She walks up and looks at my swords, then takes out her sword information book from her pocket and stops at a page, quoting the information out loud "The Yamato: A Saijo O Wazamono Grade sword also named the Devil Blade for it was rumoured to have been created by a sword-smith who was possessed by the devil who was then forced to make this sword as a weapon for creating havoc and kill all who opposed the owner of this sword, This sword is estimated to be at least 100 Billion Beri."
I see Zoro raise his left eyebrow at this information as he looks at my sword which I fully smirk and I hand it to him saying "Give it a try but it is my sword so you cannot have it."
He takes it and feels the handle while taking a few swings with it as he looks astonished at how it is made and how good of a sword it is as he comments "I can feel the power of this sword, it's immense but very controlled yet has a sort of wild streak to it in a way."
I smile at that as that is the feeling that I have when I use it which is why I do not use it a lot and stick to my other Katana which I see Tashigi looking at as she again quotes from her book.
"The Kuroi Mayonaka Katana - Black Midnight Sword: This sword is an O Wazamono Grade sword and is priced at 12 Million Beri and is said to be of great power if wielded by a true chosen swordsman."
She look's at me in total amazement as Zoro hands me Yamato back which I place back in its Saya (A/N: Japanese word for Scabbard) and then listen as Tashigi asks me "Where did you get those swords?, they both were meant to have been lost a long time ago."
I smirk as I answer her question "This..." I point to Midnight which is my nickname for my hip sword "I had found in an old ruin on an uninhabited island not far from where I lived, it was buried under tons of rubble and wood which was probably some kind of shrine or stand for the sword to have rested."
"Which is kinda true," I think to myself "When I got the sword, the ship it was on was a bit of a wreck after I was done with the crew of that ship and it did look like a ruin and it was not far from my island home along with the fact that the sword was on/in what was left of the Captains cabin and sword rack."
I continue explaining my tale "Yamato is actually a Family Sword/Meito that was kept safe and secure for centuries as my family were supposedly friends of the fabled sword-smith who died some time after he had completed making the sword which I and my family guessed was from being driven mad and dying from the experience of being possessed by such a powerful entity."
I take a breath as I finish my explanation and tale, "It was then after we had taken ownership of the sword that we all tried to use the blade but we could not as the sword would not release itself from its sheath which was from when my other family members tried to unsheathe it for their own use and so from then on a suitable user was tested for many years until I took the test which happened to be a tradition for every family member when they reached the age of 13 to try to wield the Yamato, apparantly the Swords own power and will chooses its future user by judging their own power and strength and only the true wielder of the sword can let others hold it and use it which is why I let you use it momentarily."
I nod to Zoro at this as I continue "If the sword is unwillingly taken or stolen from the owner then that person will feel pain that is unimaginable until they surrender it back to the true wielder or end up in a catatonic state and in a life long coma being plagued by images of demon's and Hell like torture if not given back or returned to the proper owner quickly enough, this is from what I know or have seen by thieves and sword fanatics who learned of my family owning the sword and tried to take it for themselves."
Tashigi looks horrified at this while Zoro was wearing a shocked expression at how he could have been dead if he had taken the sword without permission but I see that Matsu looks a little greedy at the value of my swords so I warn him in a dark tone "You try to take them from me and you will feel their metal against your head and slicing through you brain for what you may try to do if you attempt to steal them."
Matsu looks a bit more scared at my warning as he shouts to Zoro in panic "You want swords then pick two out of those barrel's over there, they all cost 50,000 Beri for each sword."
He points to the barrel's that I am standing next to and Zoro goes up to them and sorts through them while he listens to Tashigi go on about how he needs three swords to fight and I smirk a bit more as I hear her go on about Roronoa Zoro with me knowing how she has no idea that she is actually talking to the man himself, Zoro looks though one of the barrel's until his hand grasps the sword that I knew he would take as Zoro expression changes to being concentrated on the sword which when he draws it out of the barrel it was in Tashigi comments about it.
"This sword, I've seen it before," she pauses and looks through her book until she comes to a picture and description of it and again quotes out loud "The Sandai Kitetsu or Kitetsu The 3rd - This sword is a Wazamono Grade Sword and is worth 1 million Beri's."
She look's at Matsu in confusion as she asks "Why have you got this sword in a cheap sword pile at such a price" and she turns to Zoro saying "You should take it" then turns back to Matsu who look's nervous at this as he shouts out in a scared panicked tone "NO! not that sword, I can't sell that one!"
Tashigi look's a bit puzzled and shocked at this and asks quickly "Huh, why not?" but Zoro answers for her "It's cursed" Matsu look's at Zoro and asks "You've heard of it?" Zoro replies calmly "No, I can just tell."
Matsu look's a bit shocked but quickly recovers and says "Well your right, The First and Second Kitetsu's are very good swords, the same as their successor's but they are all cursed as all famous swordsman who have wielded those kinds of blades have fallen from horrific deaths from having one, These days no swordsman have used a Kitetsu and if one did then they would not last long wielding one" he sigh's and says "I'd like to get rid of that sword myself but I'm afraid that if I do then I may be cursed for doing so."
Tashigi looks totally frightened at her mistake and hurriedly apologizes to Zoro saying "Please, forgive me for not knowing how dangerous it is and being pushy about it" I see Matsu laugh at Tashigi and say "Thought you were an expert, eh girly?, show off" he scoffs at her. I see Zoro smile darkly saying "I like this sword, I'll take it" I smile at Matsu's shocked face as he hurriedly says "Are you crazy or a fool? I can't sell you that sword, cause if you died from using it then it would be like I had killed you myself!
I smile widely as I snicker in my mind as I see a large woman suddenly appear and smack the back of Matsu's head saying annoyed "You're the fool! Just get rid of it", I hear Matsu moaning and mumbling to the woman "But darling" I turn my attention back to Zoro who is speaking loudly which causes all other chatter in the shop to stop as he speaks "How about this then? My luck versus this swords curse, why don't we find out which is stronger."
"If I lose, then I'm not man enough to have it, am I!" Zoro finishes his speech as he throws the sword in the air with the blade spinning around rapidly above him near the ceiling as I hear the others speaking in shocked voices about the danger of doing that with the sword but Zoro ignores it as I watch this happen and wait for the sword to come down but stay ready encase of any mistakes that may happen.
The sword finally begins coming back down from being thrown into the air and just like in the anime it misses Zoro's arm by a millimetre while still slowly spinning and ends up stuck into the wooden floor of the shop, Zoro looks up and stares at Matsu saying with a smirk on his face "I'll take it" Matsu falls down from the stunt as he is still in shock but quickly recovers as Zoro is asking Tashigi to help pick out another sword after pulling the Kitetsu from the floor Matsu shouts out "Wait a second, I'll be back" and he rushes behind the counter and up a set of stairs that I knew led to somewhere which was probably the second floor where the other destined sword for Zoro was.
He comes back in a rush and lands a clothed item that I knew what was underneath as he reveals it and talks about it "This sword has a black lacquered sheath and the blade has a Midareba (A/N:Unusual/Irregular pattern), its name is Yubashiri which means 'Snow Chaser/Run' it's categorized as a Ryo Wazamono grade sword, this shop is nothing fancy but this is the best sword that is in this shop."
Zoro looks at Matsu in confusion and says "I can't have it as you already know I've not got much money," but Matsu shouts out "Never mind that just take it, you can have the Kitetsu sword for free also."
He paused, took a deep breath then continued speaking "Forgive me for trying to swindle you earlier, it's been a while since I've even looked into the eyes of a real swordsman as the sword chooses the wielder so I'll pray for your good fortune."
Zoro takes Yubashiri from its stand and places it with his other swords that are now tucked into his Haramaki and he thanks Matsu for it then he goes on out of the shop but I stop him for a moment before he does and says to him "Hold up, you may need something else for those swords" he raises an eyebrow and waits for me as I walk up to the counter and ask Matsu "You got any sword care kits left in the shop?"
Matsu thinks for a moment then nods saying "Yeah we've got a few left" he goes under the desk and brings out a set of different sword care kits but I notice how they are all labelled for different types of swords and from them I pick out the ones in the middle as they look the best for my swords and Zoro's which I pay for and thank Matsu for them.
I then I walk back out of the store with Zoro following me and he asks when we are a little away from the shop "Why did you get those things?" I smile and hand him one of the two sets that I picked out and say "Well I noticed how your first sword the Wado Ichimonji was a little beat up in places."
His face goes slightly red and looks a bit embarrassed and ashamed at not caring better for his swords but I smile reassuringly and say "It's okay, the sword care kit that you now have is best suited for Meito swords/blades as they have simple instructions on how to fix and clean up those types of swords along with making sure that the blade is in top condition."
Zoro smiles at me and says "Then thanks for that" I return his gratitude with a nod and a smile as we walk about more until we come to a set of stairs to rest a bit as we sit down where Zoro admires his new swords saying "A cursed sword, interesting isn't it", I smile and agree with him but then out of the corner or my eye I spot Luffy who suddenly appears in-front of Zoro saying "Wow that's a cool sword Zoro."
I see that Zoro was startled by Luffy's sudden appearance and gruffly says back "Don't sneak up on me Luffy" Luffy shrugs and asks why Zoro is sitting around here with him saying "I'm just bored at the moment, you?" Luffy smiled widely and says proudly much to my exasperation "Yeah I'm completely lost" Zoro looks at Luffy in confusion as well as feeling my exasperation and mumbles to himself "That's a good thing?" Luffy shrugs and says "It's okay, but hey do you know where the execution platform is?" Zoro shakes his head negative and says "But this guy might, Jack?" he turns his head to me and I look at Luffy who has now just noticed me which makes me shake my head thinking "Same as always Luffy."
I smile at Luffy saying "Hey, the names O'Connell D. Jackson but you can call me Jack" Luffy blinks at me and says "Hey, Jack I'm Luffy" I shake his hand as I'm about to continue speaking when I notice a commotion going on.
I look across from where we are and see that it is Daddy Masterson walking along the street as people get out of his way in awe and fear but I see that a small group of pirates challenge him to a fight which I remember is the same as it happened in the anime with most of them being took out and the last person running away in fear who to my eye is just a very young teenager.
I turn back to Luffy as the commotion dies back down and said to him "If you wanna get to the platform then you need to head in the opposite direction from here and turn left then right and make another turn but straight ahead" I point from where I am as I give him the directions as he speeds off shouting back "THANK YOU."
I look at Zoro and say "Well I'll see you later Zoro, I need to do some errands and some shopping but I may bump into you or Luffy soon" Zoro nods and smiles saying "See you Jack and hope to see you again too, I want to have a match with you sometime" I smile at this while nodding in agreement and take off towards the stores that I need to get to so I can get my items that are for sale and are needed.
Loguetown - A little while later
I smile as I walk out of the last store that has the things that I needed as I wanted some more tools and things for my inventions as I remember how I had completed my project 4 years ago which was a larger version of my Lupita and had added on weapons but could carry many more people depending on its settings and attachments as it had a large Gatling gun in the back that a person could stand in front of and aim while firing at a target along with different attachments as the gun could be replaced with a heavy mortar round cannon that could cause heavy damage or a attachable armoured seated compartment for the back that could carry up to 4 more people including the front 2 seats for the vehicle which I liked to call 'The Beast' (A/N:It looks like the Warthog from the Halo games but is black in colour instead of its usual army green colour) but I can change the wheels of the vehicle for different terrain and the same is for the Lupita which can carry two people and maybe pull a cart behind it for more passengers.
I remind myself of how I keep most of my inventions at home as I can simply teleport there with my Aura Port which I can do very well as I can port from Loguetown to my Island without getting tired but I have Aura Gate to store my more important items like 'The Beast' vehicle and 'Lupita' along with my other weapons that I have either made/nearly completed or designed.
I walk along the streets and look at the shops when I spot Usopp who is looking around in wonder with a huge backpack that is bulging with items which I knew most of it was junk and items that do not work or have no real use which I remember him getting swindled in the Anime and Manga, I follow Usopp as he is mumbling about Goggles and how he needs new ones which makes me remember how I had looked in that particular store for them.
I see Usopp go into the store for the Goggles but I then spot Carol Masterson running out of the store with the special goggles which makes me smile as I remember meeting her a few times when she has gotten into trouble or lost while in this town, I watch how Usopp is running after Carol and making up his usual lies and tall tales which makes me roll my eyes as I walk up to them saying "You know, you really should think more on how you lie" Usopp looks at me in fear as I smile wickedly and I use my aura abilities to flare a menacing dark yellow tinted aura that is directed towards the long-nosed man but I stop doing so as I notice Carol who sees me and shouts out happily "Big Brother Jack."
She then launches herself at me hugging me tightly around the waist as I hug her back and I stroke her hair saying "Hey little sis, how are you, Is this guy bothering you?" I give Usopp a glare which he shrinks at but recovers and begins spouting his long-winded tales of him being a great and fearsome fighter and pirate which I smirk at I as I can tell he is lying from his facial expression and eyes along with the shaking of his legs showing his fear.
When he is done with his speech I smile charmingly and say "Oh really, then allow me to introduce myself" I pause for dramatic effect cause I am having so much fun with this and then continue "I am O'Connell D. Jackson, also known as The Blue Wolf" I want to so laugh at Usopp's face now as I keep calm as he starts to mumble frighteningly to himself but my hearing picks it up what he says which is pretty much the same thing that Zoro said when he reacted to my name but he pauses and looks at me and says shakily "How can you be her brother?" as he has a confused expression on his face which I mean to elaborate but I'm stopped from doing so by a voice that I quickly recognize as I see Carol's father walk up behind Usopp while saying "He saved my sweet daughter from a band of pirates who wanted to capture her for ransom against me and since then she has seen him as a big brother and protector of her."
I smile at the Elder Masterson and say back "Well how could I not save her when she is so cute and sweet" I smile at Carol who blushes red and buries her head into my shoulder moaning "Jack" I smirk as I let her down and she runs to her father mumbling to him about her birthday present to him which is the goggles she bought, he reacts by getting a bit emotional and thanking his daughter for the gift which reminds me of my other reason for coming to the town as I walk up to him saying "Hey I meant to give you this for your birthday too."
I reach into the pouch on my belt and hand him a wrapped up boxed item as I say "You wanted some of these but you could not get it anywhere else so I made it for you" I was talking about a set of my special bullets that can penetrate body armour of a person and had taken a while to make as I had to find the right mix of materials to use which was a mix of Steel bullets in a layering of Kevlar covering the bullet as they worked the best with the kind of guns that The elder Masterson uses.
He thank's me for them as he takes a peek inside while pulling one out and looking at it which after loading into one of his guns when he opened his coat as I hear a shocked gasp and Usopp muttering "It is him, Daddy Masterson or Daddy The Father" I hear as he counts his guns up which is a total of 30 flintlock styled guns.
I mostly ignore Usopp as Daddy takes the gun loaded with the special bullet and fires it at a nearby wall which leaves a clear and clean but deep hole in the hard rock wall as I nod in success at how they are which Daddy seems to agree on as I see a smile on his face when he says to me "Great job on these, as always with your inventions and weapons."
I smile and return his gratitude with a nod of appreciation but then Usopp yells out to us "I'm not afraid of you or you Blue Wolf" he points at both of us in mock courage but I can see him shaking madly in fear which gives me an idea as I say casually to him "Really then how come you are shaking and what was that about you saying you had a 30 Million Beri Bounty on your head" I smile as I see Usopp pause/freeze in shock and horror as he seems to remember his lie that he told Carol.
I watch as Daddy raised his eyebrow at this and then checks his stack of wanted posters that he had in his bag until he gets to the one that is Luffy's and says to Usopp "This isn't you at all?" Usopp un-freezes and tries to run away but I shout out with hidden glee. "YEAH BUT HE IS IN THE PICTURE" he completely stops and turns in fear seeing the look on Daddy's face as he scan's the picture again while Usopp tries to recover by telling how dangerous and vicious Luffy is which I snort at and say "Yeah right, you mean the same Luffy who I bumped into saying he was lost and being glad about it."
Usopp pauses as he appears to have no idea of how to answer that and defend himself now along with probably guessing of how I could know Luffy but Daddy spoke up saying "Well, if I do bring you in then I might get some money for it" he paused as he sees Usopp's scared face and continues "But that is if you can't best me in a shooting duel which if you win then you can go free" Usopp panics as he sees no way out of the situation other than to fight in the duel.
A little while later
I stand in front of Daddy and Usopp as they are soon beginning their duel with their backs to each other and Usopp is holding a spare gun that Daddy had given him while others cheer both of them on especially Carol who cheer's for her father, I suddenly spot Nami who bursts into the scene and I see and hear her mutter to herself "Oh, great now look what that idiot has gotten into and with Daddy the Father also."
I walk up to her and speak to her "Well it is the guys fault for lying to him about being a fearsome and having a bounty on him" I see her look at me in confusion and surprise but also with exasperation as I can guess that she's annoyed at Usopp's troublesome habit of causing/spreading lies.
I speak to her as she calms down, saying with a smile "The names O'Connell D. Jackson but you can call me Jack, and what is your name gorgeous?" she blushes at my compliment and answers back "My names Nami" I bow a little as I take her hand and kiss it saying "What a cute name for such a super cute woman" she blushes even more at my charm as I can see her checking me out from my windswept shoulder length hair, (which I forgot to get cut again) my slightly tanned skin and my muscular build which I can see her inspect with her eyes towards the gaps in my clothes showing my physique.
After she's finished checking me out while smiling slightly in appreciation at my body we both turn back and watch the duel with it happening pretty much the same way as it did in the show with Usopp trying to run away after throwing a smoke bomb but I quickly switch my eyes to my Aura-Sight and I can see through the smoke with Usopp trying and now failing to make it away from the duel when and I turn off my Aura-Sight to see Daddy shoot the gun out of Usopp's hand and I hear the rest of the crowd comment on how Usopp is a loser and a coward for doing what he did while leaving the scene.
I listen as Daddy says that Usopp is a fool and that he should have not challenged him and accepted to give up the match while Nami tries to defend him but fails as I see Usopp try to get Nami to save him by giving Daddy money as he says "Your hiding behind a woman and using her to fight for you, pathetic" he says with disgust at how cowardly Usopp is.
Usopp suddenly changes his look and personality as he stands up from his kneeling when he was begging for his life, he pushes a complaining Nami away and says defiantly and with confidence "I should have not challenged you, you are right about that but don't you insult Nami ever" I hear Nami mutter in astonishment and surprise "Usopp" which Daddy seems to hear and looks at the long-nosed man saying "Your names Usopp?" Usopp nods confusion with on his face as he asks "Yeah, why?" Daddy sigh's and begins his tale of how he met and challenged Usopp's father Yasopp but had lost the duel and how Yasopp had let him live and telling him about his son and how Daddy should never leave his daughter alone and without a parent if he died from the duel.
I look at Carol as she's shocked and a little sad at her father losing a match but she perks up as she hugs her father saying to him "I still think that you are the best, Papa" I see Daddy smile at his daughter as he looks at her with parental warmth and happiness but then he lets her go from the hug and looks at Usopp saying "If you really are his son then I have misjudged you, let us have a real match but you may use the weapon that you are most comfortable with."
Usopp looks happy and proud as he knows that he had been told the story to encourage him and not be afraid to fight, he nods at Daddy and takes out his slingshot while loading it up and putting his old goggles on.
Daddy nods in acceptance for the weapon and looks around for a target until he spots the Weather Vane from across where we are and tells Usopp to aim and fire at it and if he can hit it then he will win otherwise he'll be killed by him, Daddy says this with a very serious expression on his face as Usopp gulps in nervousness as he takes aim and after a very tense silence he fires his shot.
We wait in silence as the shot goes into the air and heads for the target but I see the others gasp as they think that Usopp has lost as Carol tries to beg her father not to kill Usopp but Daddy stops her daughter as he said in astonishment "I can't kill him, cause he hit his target."
I watch as Nami looks amazed while taking a telescope from her own belt and says "He's right, Usopp shot the middle of its crown." I smile as Usopp cheers with joy at his success.
Daddy turns to Usopp saying "Go out to the Grand Line and your father will be there waiting for you somewhere" Usopp thank's him and shouts out "I will be a proud and true warrior of the sea and the best pirate ever," Daddy smiles and nods as Carol runs up to Usopp giving him the new goggles and telling him she was happy and wished him luck and runs off following her father who is leaving the place but she shouts back to me "See you big brother" I wave at her as they both walk off and away back into the town.
I turn to Nami and say "You busy at all?" I see her blush at my smile and shyly reply "Not now," but she stops as she looks up suddenly at the sky in puzzlement then clarity as she mutter's "A storm is coming soon."
