Another Teacher

"So you are Red Haired Shanks, correct?" Gyatsu asked Shanks who was sitting in front of him with a serious expression on him. It was night time and the two were sitting around a campfire, facing each other.

"Yes. And you are Luffy's teacher?" Shanks nodded and asked back. Gyatsu nodded and handed him a teacup.

"Precisely. Drink this, it's ginseng. It lowers blood sugar and boosts the immune system." Gyatsu invited him. Shanks muttered a small thank you before drinking it.

" So what are you doing out here late at night?" Gyatsu asked him. Shanks look at Gyatsu in the eyes.

" I'm here to ask if I can borrow Luffy for a month. " Shanks requested. Gyatsu raised a curious eyebrow.

" May I ask why?" He asked back. Shanks nodded.

" It's simple really, I know of his dream and I want it to happen. I can't stay here for long or else the Marines will be suspicious. Me and my crew want to train him during my stay here at Foosha Village. Will you let me?" Shanks bowed at him. Gyatsu hummed.

" You seem determined to train him, why is that? " Gyatsu asked. Shanks looked at him and smiled a little.

" I want to repay him." Shanks replied simply. Gyatsu chuckled.

" The infamous Red Haired Shanks in debt to a mere child? That's something you don't see everyday." Gyatsu mumbled before looking at him again.

"Sure, you and your crew and teach him. I don't mind it at all." He added. Shanks smiled and bowed deeply at him.

"Thank you, Mister Gyatsu. Truly." Shanks thanked him gratefully. Gyatsu chuckled and waved his hand.

" Hohoho! You don't need to bow to me, a simple thank you is enough. " Gyatsu corrected. Shanks looked at him and nodded.

" Thank you, Mister Gyatsu. "

"Why am I here, Shanks? I have training to do." Luffy asked Shanks as they arrived in a large clearing. Shanks looked at him.

"Your master gave me the okay for me and my crew to borrow you from him to teach you for a month. " Shanks revealed, surprising Luffy.

" Really?! He did? " Luffy asked. Shanks chuckled and nodded.

" Yes, I talked to him last night and he said yes. So right now, me and my crew are your temporary teachers for a month. " Shanks gave him a thumbs up. Luffy was excited.

" What will you teach me, Shanks?! " Luffy asked him. Shanks laughed.

" Calm down, Luffy. I want to evaluate your abilities first. We will first fight in hand to hand combat, later we will swordfight. Give me all you got Luffy, I can take it!" Shanks grinned at him. Luffy nodded and held up his fists.

" Here I go, Shanks!! "

" Wow..... You're just like gramps.... How are you guys so strong? " Luffy muttered while lying on the grassy ground. He had lost both fights pretty easily. Shanks laughed.

"Training, lots and lots of training. We started from the bottom and now we're here. This world is pretty wacky and unpredictable. I'm gonna prepare you for it. " Shanks held out his hand for Luffy to grab. He then pulled Luffy up effortlessly.

" Let's start on the way you wield your cutlass. There are a lot of mistakes in your stances and the way you wield it. Let's begin from there. "

" Alright!!!! Shishishishishi!!!"

.

" Wow.... I feel tired..... " Luffy muttered as he and Shanks entered Partys Bar. Makino smiled at them.

" Welcome back you two! How did his training go?" Makino asked Shanks as Luffy raced towards the bathroom. Shanks chuckled.

"He has a lot of mistakes in the way he fights. But he's great at listening and pretty quick to correct it. Perhaps that fighting talent in him runs in the family. " Shanks muttered thinking about Garp and Luffy's father, Dragon.

"Well, he's determined to say the least." Makino giggled. Shanks smiled and sat down. Suddenly, his crew barged into the bar.

"Boss! How did training Luffy go?" A fat man eating a large piece of meat asked him. Shanks looked at him.

The person who asked him the question has a round body shape, and he is always seen eating a rack of meat. He is shown wearing goggles over his eyes at all times.

He wears a green t-shirt with white vertical stripes on it, paired by a matching bandanna on his head, short white pants (beige in the anime) with a dark green sash around his waist, and green shoes with fur around the ankles.

He has a yellow coat draped over his shoulders like a cape, with a fur-lined collar and red epaulets with black stripes on them.

That man is Lucky Roux and he is one of the Senior Officers, a combatant, and the cook of the Red Hair Pirates.

"It went very well, Lucky. The kid's got that fighting talent that runs in his family. I'm sure he'll become one hell of a fighter when we're done with him." Shanks replied confidently. Benn raised his hand.

" So who's going to train him tomorrow?" Benn asked. Shanks pointed at him.

"You are, Benn. You're going to train him in his physical abilities. I want him to be as strong as a tiger after one month is done. " Shanks requested.

" Ya got it, boss. " Benn nodded at him and gave him a thumbs up. Shanks looked at another who raised his hand.

He had blond hair styled in dreadlocks. He had a muscular appearance.

He wore a dark-blue shirt, dark-green pants reaching down to his calves, and blue shoes with buckles on them. He also donned his headband.

There is also a little necklace around his neck. He retains his trademark star-patterned cape, and he has his rifle attached to his back via a band.

His name was Yasopp and is known as 'Chaser'. He is one of the Senior Officers and the sniper of the Red Hair Pirates. He is also the father of Usopp and the husband of Banchina.

"Yasopp? What is it?" Shanks asked him. Yasopp put down his hand.

"Sorry for asking but why are we doing this again?" He asked him.

" No it's alright. We're repaying him for all of the pain we did to him when Uta left. It's the only thing we could do. We're giving him a better chance of reuniting with her. You know how this world is." Shanks explained. They nodded seriously.

" I'm back! What were you guys talking about?!" Luffy asked them with a grin on his face. Shanks shook his head and patted his head.

" Nothing, Luffy. Just talking about future plans for my crew. Alright, let's have some dinner everyone!!!"

"Yeah!!!"
