7 7. Joining Strawhats

""NINJAA?!!""-Luffy & Usopp had stars in their eyes. Even Nami and Vivi became curious now.

"Well, i prefer to be called a shinobi. Also to be precise i train in ninja art and techniques but i didn't do mercenary works or work for some big family like normal ninja."-Jono

'Wait, didn't i do works given by GOD and System as a mission now? So that means i'm a full-fledged shinobi? And the system work like the village, giving me jobs then give me SP instead of money. Hmm?.'-Jono muse to himself.

"Did you say Nin-nin? Can you walk on water or a wall? Can you transform? Can you make clone? Hey hey hey?"-Luffy & Usopp said with hopeful expression.

"Well, i don't say nin-nin but i can do all those technique."-Jono sweatdrop a bit about the first question.

'Why're their first question is whether i say nin-nin?'-Jono

Luffy&Usopp feel dejected at first but then they became happy. They ask him to show them his techniques, so he show some party tricks to them.

First he make 4 shadow clones, yes, finally he can buy shadow clones after he reach Jonin level chakra. He can buy all jutsus up to A-rank jutsus now, but he's a little poor because there's no mission so he just hunt animals. Then he just buy the shadow clones and chidori. But he can't train his chidori because he need to do some spy jobs.

Back to party trick, after he make the clones, Jono make the clones transform into the four pirates. Then he use kawarimi to switch between his clones multiple times. Then he jump to the cliff and run to the top. After that, he use body flicker and appear on his seat again and dispell his clones to make a smoke effect.

The four seemed amazed, even Dorry&Broggy that often saw him training also impressed by his performance. He feel really satisfied with their reaction. He already made a lot of these party tricks in case someone ask him to show his skill, hehehe. Also, it's a fun training.

They talk about a lot of things, about The Straw Hats' journey, Jono's life which he changed a bit, and the Giants talk about Elbaf. He's really excited when imagine about those adventure on the seas. Dorry&Broggy saw his excited face and smile.

Sometime later, a man with green hair and 3 sword come. He's Zoro, the first mate of Straw Hats. When Jono saw Zoro's sword, he pondered if he should train kenjutsu, it will be cool surely. They talk among themselves and forgot about the bounty hunter that become hungry after smelling those roasted meats.

They are having fun until Nami ask the giants about log pose's charge time. Broggy said it's a year and they become depressed. Jono feel bad about them, but at least he will have some friends to train.

Then sometime later a man with yellow hair and spiral eyebrow came. Jono is really curious about those eyebrow just like Usopp's nose. His name is Sanji and he suddenly take out an Eternal Pose to Alabasta which get him a hug from Nami and his nose start bleeding. Now Jono feel jealous, he never receive hug from a woman except his family.

After that, they decide to leave. Jono feel dejected that they'll go. He start to like this crew, they're just like what the giants said about pirates. Then, it happen when they're about to reach their ship.

"Oy Jon!"-Luffy

"Hmm? What is it Luffy?"-Jon

"Join my crew!"-Luffy smile brightly and the crew also smile.

Jono stunned hearing that, they just met today, so he doesn't think that Luffy will invite him. Shouldn't he trust him first? How can he trust someone that he met today?

Jono thought about these things, but he forgot that Luffy invite his crew members just after they met in their story. But despite all that thinking, he's happy and start crying.

""Ehh!!"" All of the crew are stunned seeing him cry so suddenly. But the Giants are smiling.

"GABABABA, Guess you're really lonely huh, Little Jon? Being here for two years just with us old people that do nothing but fighting. Meeting children your age must make you happy."-Broggy

"GYAGYAGYA, Go Jon!! Pursue your dream! Isn't that the reason you trained everyday? You're now ready for Grandline, and you have friends to cover your weakness. And you'll become stronger faster by fighting some opponent rather than training all day"-Dorry

*sniff* "Yeah, i know. Alright captain, i'll follow you, but if you told me to do something against my morals i'll leave immediately. I don't want to lose my humanity."-Jono said while wiping his tears.

"Yosshaa, a new member."-Luffy

Then Jono take all his belonging in the cave and store them inside the scroll, he didn't want to reveal his system's inventory so he use scrolls. He'll use inventory just for important things right now.

When he come back the crew ask about his belonging which he show his scroll. They're stunned, to think there's a convenient way to store things.

They want to ask for those scrolls but dejected after knowing only Jono can use it. Then he say to them that he can store their belonging for them, but he charge some money for it. They give him stink eyes, then look at Nami.

"WHY'RE YOU LOOKING AT ME? I DON'T SAY ANYTHING TO HIM"-Nami said with shark teeth.

"HAHAHAHA, well actually i learned this from their story about you. And when i think about it, i don't have even a single berri. So i have some ideas when you ask about the scroll."-Jono said while laughing.

Again, they give him stink eyes then look at Nami.

"IT'S NOT MY FAULT!"-Nami

Then the crew and Giants start laughing. After some time they start to sail, and saying goodbye to the giants. Jono promise them that he'll come back after his journey and that he'll visit elbaf. The Giants follow their ship until the shore and asked them to keep sailing straight no matter what.

The crew confused, even Jono doesn't know why the giants said that, but he trust the giants. Luffy and Usopp keep saying "GO STRAIGHT!" while pointing forward.

Then it appear, a giant goldfish sea king which on the first place shouldn't be in the sea, but this is not Jono's old world so anything can happen right? They just keep sailing straight even tough some are afraid and skeptical.

Then the seaking swallow them. But then they feel some movement from behind and they see it. A blue and red light intertwined and piercing the fish, it's the Giant's energy attack. It's so strong that a big hole appear in the seaking's body and kill it. The ship pushed forward by the energy and fly some distance away.

Sometime later the crew start partying for their new member. Jono never knew that a party can be this crazy. He try Sanji's cooking for the first time and damn, it's so good. Maybe Yukihira Soma's cooking taste like this, he even feel that desire to take his clothes off but this is not Shokugeki World so he just know the feeling.

Then Zoro keep telling him to drink some sake but he refused. He never drink some booze before not even in his previous life. His mom even smack his ass when he try his father's tobaco, so she started lecturing about tobaco, booze, tattoo and even woman are a no go.

She start nagging him and even his father about being a delinquent and whatnot, but he know that she's just worried about his health. Well except for woman, for some reason she doesn't like everytime he and his brother talks to a girl, even telling him that they need to be 27 y.o before thinking about girl.

But strangely she always ask his sister about boyfriend, this time his father doesn't approve, but his mom will beat him up. It's such a hapy time, but sadly he died at 22. He hope his mother will give his brother permission to date early now after his death. Jono doesn't know that tears start to fall from his eyes.

"What's wrong Jon?"-Vivi asked, make the crew notice that he's crying again.

"Ah, no, i'm okay. I just missed my family."-Jono smiled

Jono ask to sleep early after that. The crew know he need time, so they leave him alone to sort himself, just telling him that they'll always be there for him. Jono feel thankful to them for not asking anything when he can't sort his emotion. He know that his family will be fine but he missed them.

[Ding! Host got a package from GOD.]

He feel a little annoyed by this, just when he's about to sleep GOD decided to deliver a package. But he still open it cause he's curious. When he open it he's surprised, then he start crying again. It's some photos of his family.

Their house is bigger now, his parents look healthy, his sister graduated from college and married a soldier, his brother got accepted in a good college, and there's a family photo one year before his death. Then he read the letter from GOD.

'Some years have pass after your death and before your reincarnation in that world. I saw you already join a crew and have friends that you can depend on. So i decide to give you some gifts.'-GOD

He felt really thankful to GOD now, he grant his wish and keep his family happy and safe. It's his biggest worry and now he feel a weight have been lift from his shoulder. Then he sleep with a smile while holding those photos.
