Undying Will

Chapter 22

{Lorean}

"…So you"re telling me.." The fatty said, staring disbelievingly at me, "That you"re a devil fruit user, a person who can breathe under water, with body holes….. and the serum that you gave us, was a product of said fruit!?" he said gawking at me.

"Well…..body-holes is a little inappropriate, don"t you think?" I whined as a mischievous glint arose in my eyes. I had decided to mess with the fatty. "Why weren"t we told you ate a fruit..?" he asked as a dark aura shrouded his body. "Well, you didn"t ask…" I said innocently, before immediately ducking away from Sorren"s outstretched hands and retreating to a corner of the rickety jetty.

"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d… you p.i.s.s me off!!! I want to beat you up!! Come "ere you, lying, b.a.s.t.a.r.d captain!" he roared as his loud voice rocketed throughout the open sea. His hands pulled at his hair in frustration as he chased me around the tiny room-sized boat, as I avoided his murderous hands.

We finally settled down, a period of time had pa.s.sed as he chased me around in vain. He now glared at me, panting as deep breaths shook his fat encrusted chest. His eyes stared at me murderously, before seemingly giving up and settling down to listen to what I had to say.

"So, ya. I"ve eaten the data fruit, making me a data man! The only reason I could breathe under the water is because of Tanken-senpai"s Spartan training, dunking me for hours on end in the river on the island I lived on.." I said as goose b.u.mps made their way on my body accompanied be a frosty chill that travelled happily down my spine.

"If you can breathe under water, why can"t you swim?" He asked curiously as a inquisitive look overcame his dull face.

"Ah! The only reason I was able to breathe was because I was able to observe teacher and father demonstrate allowing me to scan and a.n.a.lyze how they did it. The only reason I can"t swim is because I haven"t met a Fruit user who can.." I said sheepishly as I revealed my secrets.

"So..... What do devil fruits look like?" he asked as he stared at me with an expression akin to an expression a thirsty man would have when he saw a well. (Yes, I was slightly creped out too..)

"Oh they look like regular fruits, only in weird colors.." I said waving my hand nonchalantly before yawning with tiredness evident in my eyes.

"So wait.." he began as he stared at me, evidently aware that I was tired, and, I thought, did it because of his slight anger towards my previous attempts to poke some fun at his b.u.t.t-hurt self. My eyes which were only seconds away from closing suddenly rose in extreme surprise as I stared breathlessly at what Sorren had to offer… It was surely a jackpot, I thought as a smile rose on my eyes.

Garp stared silently from the stern of his ship as his men gawked with surprise at the ruined body of the former Shichibukai. Gaping wounds adorned the body of the former n.o.ble as his ruined jacket stood as evidence to the wringer he had been put through.

Garp grimly pulled out his den-den-mushi, before reporting the destruction of the previous popular commercial island, which had now been reduced to a pile of rubble floating over the peaceful ocean. He braced for the incoming storm of curses that the fleet admiral would send his way as he motioned for his men to search the port island for possible signs of life in this tumultuous battlefield.

A man shouted from a pile of rubble near the centre of the island as he strove to pull up the column of stone that had fallen on a poor blacksmith shop, while another explored the barren inside of a relatively untouched inn, where he found that even the chairs lay untouched with a layer of dust still settled near a corner of the store.

"Garp!!!! You"re going to be the death of me ya a.s.shole!" Sengoku roared through the portable snail as virtual spittle seemed to fall upon the reclining Garp. "Hey, it"s not my fault, I was only the guy who discovered this s.h.i.t!" Garp roared as he glared annoyed.

"Vice-Admiral Garp!! We found an untouched shelter!" a marine soldier roared as he begun to open the shelter and lead the people outside. The soldier who had by now excavated the blacksmith"s store and was running through the store salvaging the swords that hung on the floor after helping up an injured man who by now had reached the ship and was being looked at by a doctor.

"So, what happened here?" Garp asked with his usual level of agitation as he stared intently at the men who had been saved...

I took a deep breath as I attempted to calm down. Before me sat the fatty as he stared happily at me, looking much like a puppy who had done a praise worthy deed. In his hands shone a purple fruit, much like any other Parmecia, but what truly surprised and awed me, where its specs.

This fruit was the ki Fruit! Not like the ki that was displayed in anime like dragon ball z of course, but it was still a wonderful prospect for Sorren! After all the fatter you were the more ki you would be a ble to generate! ( Ki meant internal energy, and this energy could only be ama.s.sed when there was something in the body that could be converted to it! Thus the requirement for the person to be fat! The fatter you were, the better infact!)

The only reason I knew this of course, was because there was information on it in my database. "You"ve hit the jackpot here Fatty!" I said with barely contained enthusiasm.

"there is a way for you to be strong, rejoice! For now you have a path to the apex!"
