"What was that? " asks Alex in alarm before opening the door to his room when his sleep is interrupted by a large eruption noise.
"Alex you are finally up. " says Luffy with a smile while placing the cannon balls at the side of the canon.
"Look it's already noon, you should have called for me instead of keeping a watch all night long. " advised Usopp while loading a cannonball.
'Man it's already noon but I was excited and forgot about the time while experimenting with my powers last night. ' thought Alex shaking his head before saying with a smile "Why don't I give it a try, it looks like Luffy is not good at it. "
"Sure but first let me demonstrate it to you guys. " says Usopp with a nod before as he pointed the cannon head at the tall cliff in the middle of the sea before firing the cannon.

"Wow a direct hit, nice work Usopp you hit it on your first try.." says Luffy with excitement looking at the destroyed cliff.
"Man that split the whole cliff in half. " says Alex in amazement looking at the cliff in the far even if it appears small from a far however the destructive ability of the cannon balls are undeniable.
"What do you think, I am very awesome at aiming are you guys impressed yet. " says Usopp with a proud face pointing at himself.
"Yeah and you better believe it, so it's all settled you will be the sniper of our crew. " with an excited face Luffy gave Usopp an official position.
"Hey let me try if you are done. " says Alex moving Usopp from the cannon before taking a aim and "Fire. "

"You missed Alex, guess aiming is not your cup of tea, but don't feel bad sine I needed to practice a long time before I became this good. " says Usopp with a smile trying to make Alex feel better.
"Maybe you are right, I need to do some practice. " says Alex with a nod when a notification pops up.
⟦Ding!
New skill available shooting.
Do you want to learn.
〔Yes〕〔No〕⟧
'Is there a need to ask, of course I want to. ' says Alex without hesitation before clicking on the yes before leaving towards the 2nd floor "Then I will practice some aiming. "
"Good luck. " says Luffy and Usopp before resuming their activities.
After arriving on the 2nd floor he took out a few darts before making an aiming point and shooting but only to miss the target even if it's only 10s of meters away.
While he was practicing just to fail again and again his mastery is increasing at moderate rate making him have faith in himself and by the time he hits 100th darts it hits the mark.
Although the success is not that great however it is enough to motivate him to continue his practice and thus he continues for for a while and finally when he arrived at 50% after almost a thousand more try when he can hit the target almost everytime and to his satisfaction with each successive but he will achieve 1% mastery in no time he arrives at 100% mastery.

After a while
"What are you eating Luffy? " entering the kitchen asks Alex with a smile.
"I am eating meat, get your won, I am not sharing any. " says Luffy quickly eating all the meat just to make him twitch his lips 'Come on man, I am not going to steal your food. '
"Are you hungry Alex? " asks Nami.
"Nah~ I was only looking for some snacks. " says Alex shaking his head.
"Then how about some tea. " asks Nami handing him a cup full of lemon tea.
"Sounds good to me. " says Alex with a smile taking a sip of the tea before saying in satisfaction "It's good. "
"Thanks for the compliment. " says Nami with a smile on her face when Luffy snatches the cup from Alex before saying "Let me try some. "
"Damn you Pirates, do you think it's okay to kill my partner~ " although Luffy snatched the cup however before he can even take a sip a loud sound of barrel crushing and curses comes out from outside to cause all the tea to fall on his face as he cried out in pain "Hot, hot~ "
"Here let me help you. " says Alex before splashing water from the pot right beside his hand.
"Alex stop that's hot water. " says Nami in a hurry alas it's already too late for her warning.
"Damn it Alex are you trying to cook me. " asks Luffy in frustration.
"That was an accident but this should cool you down.
" says Alex quickly splashing the bucket of water at the corner of the room.
"Man that feels good but first let's go out and take a look at the baster causing the commotion. " says Luffy with a serious face before rushing out of the door.
"Alex wait. " before Alex can follow Luffy from his back Nami quickly holds his hand to stop him.
"Is there something wrong? " asks Alex with a confused face not understanding why is so serious all of a sudden.
"Did you say you were a fisherman then why do you have Devil Fruit Powers? " asks Nami pointing at the floating bucket and metallic teapot.
'Damn I used my powers without realizing earlier. ' thought Alex looking at the floating bucket and teapot before asking in return "Is there something wrong with a fisherman eating Devil Fruit? "
"No, but it can be sold over a 100 million and you just ate it like that, how could you? " asks Nami in frustration.
"Well what's done can't be undone even if you want to, right? " understanding her difficulties Alex says with a sigh but deep inside he promised help her getting her revenge as much as possible.
"Yeah~ you are correct its no use regretting over something that is already done. " says Nami in understanding before asking with a curious face "So what Devil Fruit did you eat? "
"It's the Magnet Magnet Fruit: Model World Magnet. " says Alex with a smile before taking out a small coin from his pocket using his Devil fruit power and making it float in front of them.
"So you can control anything that can be affected by magnetism, that is amazing. " says Nami with a bright eye while thinking may be she should accept Alex since Alex can steal some precious metals and they can become the ultimate thief couple of the world 'Isn't it romantic but first I need to train him. '
"Yeah, let me demonstrate it to you. " says Alex with a smile before walking out of the cabin as he discovered Jonny attacking Luffy and Usopp before making a gesture with his hand as Jonny started flying in the air since he is holding his sword when Alex asks "That's enough. "
"What is going on? " exclaims Jonny in surprise when he went flying in the air.
"Alex?? "
