Training

"I-I think I know what happened to me…I must have had a car accident and went into a coma, and this is all just a dream." That was the only logical explanation I could think of, if not then the only other conclusion is that I somehow got transported into One Piece world.

"But this… feels real" I suddenly started feeling an intense pain in my chest, I looked down and I saw blood everywhere, it was from the injurie I got from fighting the wolves earlier 'I completely forgot about this. I need to treat these wounds quickly before they get worse. '

There was a sound of water nearby, so I went to check it out, and found a small river. I immediately started drinking water to quench my thirst, after that I cleaned myself then I carefully cleaned my wounds. When I finished, I picked some leaves and used them as a bandage to cover my injuries as I didn't have any other alternatives, then after I finished that I laid down near a tree to rest my body.

I kept thinking about my situation for hours 'If this is really the One Piece world then I don't think I can survive even if I leave this place considering how weak I am right now.' I couldn't even defeat some wolves, and there are people out there who can cut ships in a half and destroy mountains.

I also kept thinking about what I should do once I leave this place 'I could always work a normal job like the normal people in this world' I thought about it for a second 'Nah…I would rather die than live another boring life like that again.' The only interesting options are becoming a marine, pirate or a pirate hunter.

'I'll think about that once I leave this place, now I have more important things to deal with'

'By the way there was something bothering since I woke up this morning. This body doesn't look familiar to me, I normally have more muscle, body hair and I don't wear necklaces' I thought while checking every corner of my body. The only explanation I could think of is that my soul got transmigrated into this body.

"Anyway, if I want to survive in this world, I need to get stronger" I clenched my fist while saying that. I got fired up just thinking about it 'It's like the first time you're going to hit the gym'.

People in this world can become insanely strong just by doing physical training, let alone having devil fruits and haki. Once my injuries heal, I'll have to start my training.

After 10 days.

It's been a while since I woke up in this place, living here is not that bad once you get used to it. I had no problem with water since I could find multiple rivers with clean water, as for the food I would usually pick some fruits, go fishing in the rivers since I could do that bear handed, or if I'm lucky I could cash a squirrel or a rabbit, I also managed to make some wooden spears in case I had to fight something.

After doing some exploration, I found out that this jungle is insanely big and the deeper you go the more dangerous it will be, as you would have more chance encountering dangerous animals and monsters like that gigantic tiger back then.

Today is the day I would start my training 'I've been waiting for a long time, finally my injuries are healed.' I was standing in an empty spot warming up my body to start my first training session. I have already come up with a routine.

Today I will do strength training, I'll be working chest and arms.

The first exercise is pushups "I will do 4 sets of 10 as a start" I got into position.

"1...2...3…4...9....10…huff…huff…I can't even do 10 pushups properly. No wonder I got clapped by those wolves easily" I rested for little bit then I resumed my workout.

After 15 minutes of struggle, I finished the 4 sets "Huff…huff…I have a long way to go. The next exercise will be incline pushups for lower chest." I did 4 sets of incline pushups then I switched to decline to target my upper chest, after that I did diamond pushups to work inner chest and triceps, then I used a tree beside me to do chin-ups so I can work my biceps and then finally I did triceps dip.

"Phew…I took me an hour and a half to finish this workout, this body is so weak. I need to get stronger quickly." After finishing my workout, I went to a river nearby and took a bath after that I was exhausted, so I went back to the cave that I have been staying at for the past 6 days, I found it by chance when I was exploring the jungle and it's a lot bigger than the last one. When I finally arrived, I immediately went to sleep and call it a day.

The second day I decided to do endurance training because I was sore from yesterday's workout, so I went running on the beach. I chose to run here because of the soft sand, it makes running harder and it helps strengthen the legs so it's better than running on flat surface.

As the days went by, I got stronger and stronger each day I also had to change my diet to maximize my gains and started eating more vegetables for carbohydrates and more meat for protein although I couldn't do it all time because I still have a hard time hunting animals, but it was enough for now.

I also noticed that I'm developing super-fast, I could already see changes in my body as I gained some muscles and my stamina has increased enormously, now I'm able to run for about 3 hours straight, compared to the first day, I couldn't even run for 30 minutes without collapsing.

"This is certainly strange, I have only been training for about two months but I already changed this much. But considering how people like Akainu and Aokiji fought each other for 10 days means that the laws of this word are different from earth as normally something like that would be impossible." I certainly made a lot of improvement, but I'm bound to hit a plateau, and this kind of training will soon become useless, when that time come the real training will begin.

If you are wondering how I was able to survive in this jungle without getting killed until now then the answer is simple, I always stay near the edge and if I see or hear something I run, but that rarely happen because unlike the first day you rarely see any dangerous animals in these parts, although you could still often hear loud noises that belongs to those super huge monsters but other than that its peaceful.

After 6 months.

A lot of things happened, the first and most important is my training, I have packed some crazy muscles and thanks to my endurance training I burned a lot of fat so now I look well defined, but what's more crazy is that I'm able to lift weight that is impossible for someone my size, I run faster than the average human and I can jump higher than Ronaldo.

The other important thing is that I saw at least 3 ships passes by the island for the past six months, so I'm not completely stranded, but I already decided not to leave until I become stronger, and there is also no way to know if those were pirate ships or not. I could get killed or worse, sold as a slave to the world nobles, so unless I'm strong enough to fight back, I'm not willing to gamble.

The bad news is that living alone in an island for six months is starting to fuck with my mind, and I started talking to myself more often, I even call one of the rocks that I use for training 'Wilson'.

"I'll have to quickly get stronger and leave this shit hole before I go crazy."

"I've been training for six months, it's finally time to step up my game" I was finally confident enough about my strength.

"From today onward, I'm going to start sparring with the dangerous wild animals of this jungle. Normally, fighting a lion or a tiger barehanded is something you would only hear in legends and stories like Hercules, unless of course your using guns." In this world the stronger the opponent you fight and beat, the stronger you become.

'Reilly said to luffy that by experiencing life and death situation you become stronger. Of course, he was referring to haki but you could also apply that logic to normal strength 'As soon as I finished my daily routine, I headed deep in the jungle to look for my sparring partner.

I kept going deeper until I finally found him "Found you" A fierce looking lion, he was the same size as a normal one from earth.

"Shall we start now?... Partner."
