Also folks, I'm planning on giving Ray a nickname soon but I'm struggling a little. Anything you guys suggest?

Luffy and Zoro learned Advanced Conq and Armament in literally less than month at Wano. The MC learns it during a time skip, a period of 4 years, where it's written that he's been fighting pirates for years. Whilst simultaneously being mentored by Garp lol. Not far fetched at all imo

System's are just an easy way to implement abilities into One Piece that simply don't exist, I chose not to do so. The MC progresses fast sure but it's no where near plot breaking, it just seems that way because I've implemented quite a few time skips early on. Compare the strength's of certain character's in One Piece pre time skip to the current arc in the manga. In a span of 2 years, they've jumped massive levels.

Weird comparison, if you read the chapter, it's clearly mentioned Shanks was still getting used to losing an entire limb. He didn't even take any damage the entire fight, what's the issue here?

Yep, he's progressing fast but that's largely because of Garp's training and his prior knowledge of Haki. He's been training like a maniac for 9-10 years at the current time in the story. What's crazy is, in just 2 years, Koby went from an errand boy to around Dressrosa Luffy, although he's unlikely to win

Ah thank you. I felt I couldn't leave people hanging on this small arc so I kept pressing new chapter and let my ideas flow through lol. As for Haki, you're correct, it isn't really fleshed out too much by Oda despite it being the coolest ability imo. I'll keep thinking of new techniques and ways the MC can manipulate Haki, ty for the advice

Currently, he is 23. 3 years before Ace heads out and 6 years before Luffy's journey

Thanks for the reminder lol, gonna have to edit the early chapters

Yes, its not one of the official 21 great grade swords but rather one I made up as all 21 haven't been revealed in One Piece yet. As for a supreme blade, I think that'll be further down the line

Make sure to leave a review folks! Planning on releasing 2-3 chapters per day for a while, so hope you guys enjoy it. I will gladly accept any criticism as my writing is still a little rusty
