here's another chapter of my one piece story Pirates Destiny and I hope you'll all enjoy it cause I'm having a blast doing this.
Chapter 4 farewell Silver and hello Zack
waking up the inner will?
The next morning mark was in the kitchen working at his job with his mother and serving the customers. The job they both had was working at Ruby's/Marks grandmothers restaurant that she called the Field Cafe that cooked all kinds of delicious Delicacies that ruby learned in her younger days when she was the cook for her old pirate crew she used to be pay was small but it was okay since they sort of enjoyed it along with the eleven other employees.
Right now mark was faster then usual cleaning up the dishes and few other things that needed to be done and now he focused on cooking an omelet.
" Mark! " he stopped because he regonized that voice it was his grandmother Red BlackField she was only fifty seven her hair was white and cut short and eyes were red. most of her clothing choices was a pink shirt while wearing an apron with old jeans not the appearance you'd be expecting from a old lady her age but her spirit was the strongest thing about her that everyone on the island knew about.
" Yeah grandma? " mark said while continued to fry up a few eggs on a frying pan and topped of with chopped pieces of peppers along with cheese " isn't your friend going to leave today? " she asked curiously while he flipped the omelet. The reason why there able to talk while working is because it was necessary do to the fact that they work at the restaurant and they were family.
" who Silver? Uh yeah he is " mark said while adding the last touches to the meal, biscuits and gravy along side with four pieces of bacon and two slices of ham " why do you ask? ".
" Well according to your mother you seem close " she said while smiling and mark remembered that his mother watched him and when he did get home she bonked him on head really hard " oh right, order up! " he said hitting the bell.
he turned back and sighed while " his grandmother was smiling " what? " " you and ruby go see him off " " are you sure? " she nodded " hmm go on ahead? "
and then
Silver was sitting on the dock with a telescope and while waiting he heard running and then exhaustion he turned his head around and only to see it was just mark and once he saw him he turned back to the sea. After mark got back his breath he sat down right next to silver
" what brings you here lad? " " I hear that you we're leave so I able to see you off and also moms coming to" " oh okay " silver said not one moment looking away but he noticed that mark was staring at his cyborg parts " your curious about it aren't you? " mark then snapped back to reality " wh- what? " " I don't mind I've grown accustomed to it over the last few years ".
" Well how did that happen to you? " after mark asked that question silver looked at his left arm and remembered how he lost his original and became what he is now " sometimes you have to give up what's most valuable for a better cause " " do regret it? " " nope I don't regret what I did and it pointless to greave over it now ".
Mark then noticed that on silvers hat was a Very faint insignia of a Jolly Roger " what does the skull mean? " " huh the Jolly Roger? " " yeah what does it mean? ". " it a symbol that represents the pirates who fly it but according to some people- " that's what makes a pirate crew " silver was cutted off by ruby as she sat down next to her son.
" the skull and bones that all there is to it " she then ruffled marks hair and silver chuckled " ruby do you remember the old days with Scar, Tony, Wally, Zog ,Velcro, Rob and the captain? " she turned to him " who Morgan of course not I could never forget about him ".
Silver once again looked through his telescope " think Whitebeard still alive? " " pfft the old fart yeah it's hard believe he's still alive huh " mark looked to his mom in confusion " who's whitebeard? ".
" He's one of the four emperors, you see there the few most powerful pirates out there and they rule over half of the grand line like kings " " wow that's crazy " " sure is but it's true hmmm? " silver stood up because in the distance he saw his ship. " about dam time to " silver then cranked his left cyborg arm that made a loud chuck he then aimed it in the air and fired a green smoke flare. Then the ship in the distance fired one to acknowledge that they see it.
After a few minutes Silvers ship was in the port. Mark was amazed by his ship it was a black Galleon that had gold and silver colored stripes all over its body it had four masts that held the sails. the ship was built for hard endurance and speed but that didn't mean that it wasn't a force to reckoned with. due to the love of the old ship that his former captain had The Destiny Beyond he called it the Destiny Seeker to in a way to honor those memory's and his mentor. Mark then saw two things about the ship he thought was cool the jolly roger and the figure head.
The skull of the jolly roger left was that of a cyborgs along with a captains hat on the top and it had two swords and guns sticking out of the sides with two gold coins on the right side. the figure head was a skeleton holding a very small chest that had a compass engraved in its head and a hourglass on its right arm.
( whoa ) mark was just blown away by this awesome ship then all the sudden something jumped from the figure head and landed on the dock " oiy is that the sea devil I see right here? " ruby recognized that voice she turned around saw who it was " hahaha hey Rob long time no see! " she said walking up to him.
This man here is Rob Colemen his age was in his middle thirty's he was very tall had really bizarre white hair along with a short beard. his eyes were dark brown he wore a unzipped light red jacket along with a white sash around his chest he also had long brown pants with black leather boots.
His bounty was 32,0000,00 beri while Silvers bounty was the highest among his entire his bounty was over 500,000,00 making the Silver Brotherhood pirates one of the many pirate crews with the highest bounties in the world.
Ruby then went up to rob and gave him a hug " mmm good to see you " " you as well rob " they left the embrace and rob noticed mark " is that " " hmmm " she nodded and then rob knelled down " hey remember me? of course you don't you were only a newborn when I last saw you " mark didn't know what to do so he decided to do what a lot of people did. " uh I'm mark how are you doing? " mark extended his hand out making rob surprised " well now nice to meet you mark my names rob " he took the handshake but instead rob gave mark a bro hug.
( huh this new ) mark thought as rob letted him go " heh your alright kid " rob gave him a pat on the back " also I like to meet someone hey zack come over here " then a much younger version of zack only his hair was a bit longer and it went past his shoulders and just like always he wore his signature black bandanna.
" who's this guy rob? " " you remember how I said how Scar had a kid with ruby the sea devil well that's the kid " zack approached him and began to examine every angle and shrugged his shoulders. " eh don't look like much " mark raised an eyebrow " oh yeah you ever heard never underestimate your opponents no matter what they look like? " now zack was intrigued " humph care to try and find out? " now they were butting heads like two bull but before they could do anything else ruby bonked the two of them on the head.
" Ow! " they both said as they rubbed the bumps on there heads " don't try anything " she said in a threading tone while silver and rob sweat dropped " uh she hasn't changed a bit has she? " rob asked not to loud enough for her to hear " no with a capital N ". But sadly for them she heard BAM! " dam it! " " I forgot how hard she hits! I also though those days were over ".
Ruby smiled and acted all innocent " talk about me again like that... " her smile became evil " ... and I'll kill you " now silver and rob we're fearing for there live the same went for mark and zack " holy crap your mom's scary " " yeah just don't really mad " mark whispered.
After silver got over his beating he went over to ruby " oh ruby can I have a word with you? " " sure " they both went to the end of the dock that way they could speak in private .
" Alright silver what is it? " " you see that kid over there? " silver pointed out to zack " the one who was about to fight mark what about him? ". " I need you to look out for him " " why? " silver sighed " he's Zog's son " " wait our zog where is he? " " he's dead, the cancer finally got him and I've been raising the boy four five years now ".
" But what about the mother? " he shook his head " oh I'm sorry "
" look I would leave him on fish man island but you and I both know that there's tension between our races and zog didn't want his son to grow up into a racist pirate like Arlong and Hody Johnes " ruby sighed " okay I'll do this but not for you I'm doing this for Zog "
" thank you "
afterwards
Silver and his crew reunited and they decided while they were there they would get some supply's.
right now silver was heading back to his ship and mark wanted to know one question.
mark finally caught up to him and there was zack with all his possessions in a bag he carried over his shoulder. Zack was about to ask mark but he saw that he was going to do something and decided to stay and watch
" silver wait!? " mark yelled out and he got a response " oh hear to say goodbye? "
" yeah I am but I wanted to ask you one last question " silver raised his eyebrow " we'll ask away ".
" Do you think that if I had the chance I could ever go with you? " silver was surprised to hear that question and so was zack. After a moment of silence silver then laughed " what's so funny!? "
" i wouldn't take you with me at all and besides you would never make it as a pirate " then mark got really angry
" Screw you! I will be pirate and someday I'm going to form my own crew that will be stronger then yours and sail the world! you hear me!? " mark firmly stated and then silver gave mark the Harmonica because ruby wouldn't sort of accept it.
" What is this? " " your fathers harmonica he would have wanted you to have it and think of this as a promise you made and a sign that we will meet again one day, just promise you take care of it "
mark gripped it tightly " I- I will... Silver " and slowly he began to cry and then silver placed his hand on marks head and gave him a reassuring smile " don't cry...until we meet again Mark "
Memory over
As mark finished playing his harmonica as well as going through memory lane zack just came back up with at least ten fish all tied to the end of a rope.
" about time " " just shut up and start cooking " Zack said very ticked off tone.
