I do not own One piece and Naruto. If I did, I'd be flexing on Andrew Tate on how rich I am

He took the note in his hand and started to read it. Each word he read, he clenched his fists harder and harder until they started to bleed. But even though he was mad, he still understood why they wanted to leave. He could understand why, but still, he was mad that they left without bringing him to another island. Like seriously, how would he get off this island? Last time he checked, this island was located in the Calm Belt where there were no ocean currents which made it almost impossible for a normal ship to sail through. Which meant he was stranded here. Forever.

"I don't wanna be stranded here! There's so much things I haven't done like kicking some pirates asses, becoming a badass pirate, heck I haven't even had my first kiss yet. Cmon Kami! Have some mercy on me!"

Honk*

"What was that?"

"Hoist down the anchor! Get down and search for red hair!"

Who are these guys? And why are they searching for Shanks? Didn't he tell him that he was a good pirate or was that another lie he told him.

"Search everywhere! Don't leave any place unchecked!"

"Aaaaaah!"

What was that?

"Captain! Help me! This tiger's trying to kill…"

Akira. What the hell was she doing? And captain? Who the hell were this guy's?

"Captain, we should help him…"

"No. Weak marines aren't associated with us."

"But captain…"

"Are you questioning my orders?"

"No captain!"

"Good. Now, keep looking for red hair!"

Marines. They're as scum as he knew they were. But what do they want Shanks? He hasn't done anything wrong since he met him.

"Captain! We found something!"

"What is it?"

"There's a tent here with some things in it. Looks like someone's living here on this island."

Shit. He forgot to pack up the tent.

"No. It's too small for someone like red hair to live in it. "

"Then who sir?"

"Seems like someone's been watching us. Come out! Or do you want me to come and get you?"

Looks like he's been caught. No use hiding now.

"No need, I'm right here,"Naruto said.

"A little boy?"said one of the marines.

"What is a little guy like you doing on this island?"asked the captain.

"I-i was captured by this red haired guy and was brought here on this island."

What else could he do but lie. If he said he was his apprentice, they'd capture and torture him to death so there wasn't much he could do but lie.

"He took me here and made me his slave. He made me hunt for food all day and night and made me eat his scraps."

"Oh my God!"exclaimed one of the marines

"Is that what that red hair does?"asked another.

"Don't jump to conclusions. How can we trust what a kid says? He may be lying and knows where red hair is."said the captain as he drew his sword.

"Don't play us like we're idiots, kid. Now I'll ask again, "What are you doing on this island?"He asked, this time, his sword pointing to his throat.

"I already told you. What else do you want to say?"

"Show me some proof and maybe I'll spare you."

Perfect.

"Alright, but could you first stop pointing that sword to me? You're freaking me out."

"I won't ask again. Now show me your proof!"

This guy was really crossing the line now. One more and he'll have to use his haki.

"Alright. Here."he said as he removed his shirt revealing scars all over his body.

He was lucky he had these scar's all along otherwise he'd be dead meat. The scars hadn't come from Shank's of course, they'd come from some people he'd asked for help when he was suffering from that deadly disease. Most came from the doctors who promised to 'cure him.'

He knew he shouldn't have trusted them, but he wasn't regretting it now.

"And how do I know this is really your skin?"he said, pinching him.

"Ow!"

"Alright I believe you. Seems like red hair isn't here. But why would he leave you here even though you're his slave? Something just doesn't add up."

Uh oh. He had to think of something fast.

"He looked like he was in a hurry to go somewhere last night and when I asked him where to, he just slapped me and said it was none of my business."

The captain sighed. Phew. And they were just stupid as he thought.

"Men, hoist the sails! We're heading back to base!"

"W-wait a minute, you're taking me with you?"

"Yeah. Got a problem with that?"

"N-no. I just don't wanna be a burden to you guys, that's all. You can just drop me off an island nearby."

"Hmm. Okay."

He sweat dropped. Kami, were they really this dumb?

"Get on kid. We don't have all day."

"Y-yes sir."

He really needed to drop the shy act.

"We're here."

"Huh."

Holy. This island is. He didn't know how to describe it. The only word was magnificent. He had never seen anything like it. Not even his kingdom looked anything like this.

"Well kid, are you gonna get off or not."

"Uh, yeah. Thanks for the ride Mr."

"Turn the ship and head to base!"

"Asshole."

Back to the island. He was still amazed by it. The trees were beautiful, not to mention the fruits were juicy looking good.

"I think I'm in heaven."

He shook his head. He needed to find a place to stay. Maybe he could stay on those beautiful trees. Nah. He didn't want people thinking he was some homeless guy. That would ruin his reputation. Not that he had one anyway.

"Maybe I'll just walk around until I find someplace interesting."

"Woah."

That was the only word he could use to describe the place.

"Kokoro no heiwa dojo. Sounds fun."

And it was a sword training dojo. Just what he needed.

"Let's just hope these guys weren't assholes like Shank's."he said as he opened the door

"Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha."sounds of children yelling filled the room.

"Hey! Anyone here?"

"Oh, looks like we have a guest."

"Yo."

That made one of the sensei's chuckle.

"Well hello there to you too. What brings you here?"

"Mm. Let's just say I'm here for a challenge."

"Hoho. A dojo challenge is a rare thing these days. Very well. Arashi!"

"Y-yes sensei."

"Are you sure he is my opponent?"

"Make no mistake. He may seem shy but he's one of our best students."

"If you say so. Let's just get this over with."

"Very well. You may take as many swords as you want."he said, pointing towards a barrel full of bamboo swords.

"As many as I can huh?"

"Is this your first time practicing two sword style?"asked Arashi.

"Wait, there's styles in swords."

"You didn't know about it?"

"This is the first time I'm hearing about it."

"Alright. Are you both ready?"

Both nodded.

"Begin!"

"Here I come!"yelled Naruto.

Bang*

Naruto groaned.

"Are you okay?"Arashi asked.

"Been through worse."

"Well Naruto, seems like you lost."

"Because I've never trained with a sword before. I'm more of a hand to hand combat guy."

"We can fix that. Do you mind training with us for a time being?"

"Not at all. I even have a sword right here."He said, removing a sword out of his pants.

He didn't what shocked his sensei. The fact that he had a sword or the sword itself.

"Who gave you that sword?"

Yup. It was the sword.

"My master gave it to me. He uses a sword himself."

"Where is he right now?"

"Uh, he's gone back to his hometown. Why? Is this sword special or something?"

"No. Never mind it. If you want to become a good swordsman, you must first learn how to use a sword. That's what we'll be teaching you. Well start with the basics but first we'll have to know what sword style you want to know."

"Sword style?"

"There's 3 types of sword styles. One sword style, two sword style and three sword style."

"Can you demonstrate?"

"Sure. One sword style involves the use of one sword by the user. Some say it's the weakest because of the use of one sword but it can be the strongest if trained efficiently?"

"Ok. Involves use of one sword. Got it."

"Two sword style involves the use of two swords on both hands. Most swordsmen use it as to them, it's the strongest and most efficient."

"Ok. Uses two swords. Got it."

"The three sword style…"

"Let me guess, uses three swords?"

His sensei smiled.

"Yes. Seems like you're already getting the hang of it."

Naruto rolled his eyes.

"As you said, it uses three swords. One on each hand and one in the jaw. This is the less used type as it involves vigorous training. It takes a lot of time to train for it. It could take weeks, months and even years."

"Looks like that's out. I don't know about one sword style. It doesn't sound as badass as two sword style."

"So you chose two sword style?"

"Two sword style it is!"

"Excellent. I'll inform my colleagues of your choice. Welcome to our dojo Naruto."

Looks like things are about to get interesting.

Hey guys. This is the second time I'm saying this but it looks like I won't be posting for a while. I'll try but there's no promises. Kaiokenika out.
