Second Chapter of the day. This will be the new schedule!
*****
Luffy started to run on the battlefield as I followed along. I didn't attack any of the Marines, as long as they didn't try to hurt Luffy. I set my opinion on this matter before I came to this war. Crow tried to convince me how magnanimous was the Whitebeard but he was still a pirate terrorize the seas. If he was a great man wanted to help people, he could also hunt the pirates as I did, make the sea safer.
Luffy also chose to be a pirate but, because of the Shanks, the man saved his life and put a role model on him to follow. Later, he tossed to the mountain bandits by Garp and met Anne, also wanted to become a pirate. Luffy has been manipulated to this road, by these two role models. If I haven't seen the Luffy, with my own eyes, then I would hunt him down too. But Crow told me about Luffy's deeds even before I came to this world. The only reason for me to waste my time to spend time on his ship was my trust in Crow. Thanks to it, I had a chance to see Luffy and decided to help him.
Luffy encountered some of the Marines he used to clash on his adventure to this point, for example, Lieutenant Fullbody, became best friend with Hypnotist Jango and became subordinates of Hina, Captain in the Marines. We encountered with Hina when we wanted to leave Alabasta.
I jumped in and punched both of Fullbody and Jango, with extreme speed, while Hina tried to imprison Luffy with her fruit, but Luffy activated Second Gear and run forward, didn't even look back.
Later, Moria showed up in front of the Luffy and wanted to take his shadow once again. I was about to take him out too, but Jinbe attacked Moria and asked Luffy to move on.
Luffy kept moving forward. He attacked regular Marine Soldiers, and he took all of them down with the single attack. To stop Luffy, Smoker showed up. Luffy rushed him by the Gatling Gun attack, but to no avail. Smoker was Logia Fruit user, and all physical attacks went through him. I had to step in, or Smoker could stop Luffy easily. I had my share with the Logia Fruit users as well, and to be able to hit the Logia Users without Sea Stone Prism, one has to anti-force their fruit forces. But I couldn't think of any anti-force for the smoke.
While I was pondering how to prevent Smoker to chase Luffy, Boa Hancock, the Most Beautiful woman in this world walked in and kicked Smoker away from Luffy. I knew Hancock from what Crow told me. In Original Series, Boa Hancock fell in love with Luffy and helped him infiltrate to the Impel Down. Later, during the war, Hancock helped Luffy countless times. In this World, Luffy also infiltrated to Impel Down successfully, and now Hancock appeared once again. I believe, this event indicates Luffy is one lucky bastard.
Sometimes, I believe Luffy is connected to the World Engine, running this World. The first event pushed me to this thoughts was, my first quest in this world was to save Luffy. The second reason was his incredible luck, shielded and assisted him all the time. I can't prove these thoughts. Firstly because Crow is a big fangirl, secondly, I am also affected by Luffy, and can't think straight. Maybe I can prove it when I go upper realm.
Upper Realm is the very new term to me, and I first heard it after I encounter with Templars. Upper Realm has the total of seven levels.
I learned from Crow there is an upper realm where Gods live. It also has several parts inside this seven floors. The top 10 Gods would live in the First level, and the Annual Universal God Contest ranking would affect the place one can live.
Other World Travelers go to Upper Realm with their Lord's summon, then send to another one. There aren't many systems allow the user to wander freely in this endless multiverse.
While Luffy's allies were holding Luffy's old enemies, we moved forward. This time it was an unexpected name who stopped us. The Greatest Swordsman in the World Mihawk. He stood upright in front of the Luffy with his great big black sword.
I knew this was hard to deal enemy, so, I nodded Luffy to move on. I pulled Shodai Kitetsu from Wrinkled Old Man's storage ring. These swords were cursed in the annals of history, because it washed by the blood of countless human and their owners, and no one dared to use it so far, except Zoro in the Original Series. But in this World, the sword felt in the hands of Wrinkled Old Man.
I wasn't sure, if I could fight with Mihawk in Swordfight, that is why I filled my sword with Lightning Chakra to have upper hand. When our swords met, I felt a strong force, pushing me back. His calm looking eyes were searching beyond my skin, traveled all over my body.
"Nice technique. I would be stunned if I didn't see that coming. But, you can't hide in front of my eyes." Mihawk said.
Now he said that I remembered he was mostly known as Hawkeye. What is his story Crow?
"It is not reachable yet. I can't pull this information from the World Engine," said Crow.
I guess I have to ask him, or Zoro. Crow told me Zoro would be trained by Mihawk when the crew starts their separate training. Is this the Observation Haki or something with the eyes? Or both?
Mihawk swung his big sword horizontal, and I bend backward to dodge it. On the other side of the battlefield, the iceberg, cut in two. It was at least 100 meters long and kilometer afar from us. I sweated bullets, I stood on my hands and turned around my hips to kick him on the face. He blocked with the sword, and swing it vertically. I dodged again with throwing myself to my feet with my arm powers, then used the flying technique I used with my zhengi to stay in the air and used Sword-Man Unite form.
I insert all my chakra into the sword, too bad this wasn't Chakra Blade and wasn't as useful as Naruto World Sword. I couldn't use my Very Good Sword, because I used it as Hitomi all the time.
I swing the sword with my own Jutsu's second form. Thor's Punishment! This Jutsu was the second form of the Thor's Hammer. I would use the Chakra Blade with Lightning Chakra and swing a thunderbolt to the target. It would distract the opponent with a thunderous voice and catch unwary. But like it was all seen beforehand by Mihawk, he just dodged it with ease. Again with mocking smile, he said: "You techniques are out of this world. But still, useless in front of my eyes."
I was about to run away, but a man with a hairy chest came to my aid and stopped Mihawk to follow Luffy. I thanked the man called Vista. I knew his name from Crow of course. In original series, when Luffy was in trouble with Mihawk, Vista send by Marco, First Commander of Whitebeard Crew to aid Luffy. Marco ordered by the Whitebeard when Luffy said Anne "Even if I die, I will save you." Whitebeard liked Luffy, and said Marco: "Never let this kid die."
I caught up with Luffy, and he was dealing with regular soldiers. He looked back at me tired, and about to faint. At that moment about 20 Pacifista come from back and pirates stuck inside two sides. At the front, there was an army fighting to the death. At the rear, 20 Pacifista shooting continuous laser shots.
At this point of War, in Original Series, the Whitebear would take sword in the heart from his own man. That man named Squardo and would do that because manipulated by Akainu, one of the admirals, saying Squardo, that Whitebeard sold out all New World Pirates to the Marines by bringing them to this war, in exchange of Ace. Even when this was all lie, Squardo's hate against Pirate King made him do what he did. Because in Original Series, Squardo would learn the fact Ace was Pirate King's Son in the war, with rest of the World.
But in this world, everybody already knew this information. Thus Squardo either not come to the war, or already dealt with this issue and Whitebeard never took a sword in his heart. But when Marines initiate the next part of the plan, which I already have seen in Aquilo's notes, Crow told me another person haven't shown up in this war. Oars Jr.
Oars was an enormous titan. He lived 500 years ago and died from the cold bite because he was walking naked in Ice land. He is at least twice in height compared to the regular giant race. Oars dead body found by Moria. Moria took out Luffy's shadow and inserted it into the Oars make it reanimated. We fought with him several times, but because he was a zombie, he was practically invulnerable.
Oars Jr. was a pirate under Whitebeard, and almost as large as Oars. In original series, he would show up to save Ace and would die just front of the scaffold. Then when Marines raised walls to trap all pirates inside the battlefield, and their escape route closed by Pacifistas, Akainu would use his Devil Fruit to send them all to the bottom of the sea. This plan was feasible because in the original series Devil Fruit User would be a hammer in the sea. But this world was different.
Still being trapped would make it troublesome, and I didn't want to go the other side of the wall alone. Thus, when I saw Aquilo's notes regarding walls, I made a plan to prevent it right away. When all the marines started to fall back from the battlefield, I understand this was the time. I got close as much as I can and gathered almost all my Chakra, and block two pieces of the wall should rise. When all walls raised, there was a hole for us to pass through.
At this moment I got noticed by everyone on the battlefield. All cannons directed at me, and I just flashed to the Luffy's side. At least Luffy could bounce them back...
