Chapter 2 Bug-Like Ability, Teigu · Magic Hand?

Badr Alan carefully considered Luffy's proposal to be his partner. While he didn't have grand ambitions of becoming the ruler of the world, he was more interested in gaining power and exploring his potential. With a laid-back nature, he initially considered joining the Marines out of convenience but found it troublesome. Even after becoming a wanted individual with a bounty on his head, he wasn't particularly inclined to form a pirate crew.

In fact, he had been contemplating joining the Revolutionary Army or perhaps aligning himself with one of the Four Emperors' pirate groups just for the fun of it. His plan was to settle the score with Colonel Mouse and the Murloc Pirates before embarking on a journey to the Grand Line. There, he aimed to collect unique "materials" and acquire the skills and technologies possessed by renowned masters. Using his Munch-Munch Fruit ability, he intended to create a powerful artifact called a Xeon Teigu that would fulfill his desires.

Joining the Straw Hat Pirates wasn't out of the question. Compared to other pirate factions filled with betrayal and deceit, he found the idea of being part of a simple and harmonious crew like the Straw Hat Pirates appealing. The adventures and thrills that awaited on the vast sea intrigued him, and he was cautiously optimistic about the possibilities.

Luffy's genuine enthusiasm for Alan's magical abilities and his invitation to join the crew convinced him to accept. However, Alan made it clear that he wouldn't join just any mediocre pirate group. He expected high standards from his companions, and if their performance didn't meet his expectations, he would leave. Additionally, he aspired to become the deputy captain, not just another crew member. He believed that his unique skills and expertise warranted a significant role within the crew.

Luffy, overjoyed by Alan's acceptance, agreed without hesitation. Alan, satisfied with the outcome, asked Luffy to introduce himself again. With a serious expression, Alan provided his own introduction, sharing that he hailed from Clicia Island in the Rolandic Kingdom, a small border country in East Blue. He possessed the Paramecia Munch-Munch Fruit, which allowed him to swallow and fuse with any object, granting him transformative abilities.

While he appeared to be an ordinary magician, Alan considered himself an all-around expert in various fields, delving into science and technology in addition to his magical talents. He admitted to having hobbies like beauty, food, and wine, but also revealed his passion for collecting advanced technologies from around the world. Alan's current dream was to travel the world, engaging in thrilling adventures to broaden his horizons and enhance his physical and mental abilities. Along the way, he aimed to gather technologies and materials to create an ultimate weapon surpassing even the three ancient weapons.

Alan demonstrated his "Teigu" to Luffy—a white-gold glove created through a combination of his Munch-Munch Fruit ability, the Paramecia Shrinking Fruit ability he obtained, and other special materials. The glove perfectly integrated with his hand, rendering it invulnerable to bullets, water, and fire. Furthermore, it possessed the power to shrink non-living objects upon touch. Alan explained the intricate process of creating this unique item, which utilized the abilities of the Munch-Munch Fruit and his specially cultivated "Parasitic Gu."

Though Luffy didn't fully comprehend the concept of ancient weapons or Teigu, he was amazed by Alan's abilities and enthusiastic about having him as a partner. Alan chuckled, acknowledging Luffy's joy, and clarified that his main focus was on traveling, adventuring, and honing his abilities. His ultimate goal was to become a powerhouse both physically and mentally while collecting the world's advanced technologies. As for the dreams of becoming the Pirate King or ruling the world, those seemed a

little too far-fetched for Alan.

With Alan's introduction and the agreement to join the Straw Hat Pirates, the second crew member was officially recruited. Luffy was thrilled to have Alan on board, while Alan saw this as an opportunity to embark on exciting journeys and fulfill his ambitions. The stage was set for their future adventures as they sailed together in pursuit of their dreams.
