Chp 8
#TOMMY POV#
"This wasn't exactly what I had in mind," I whisper to Hancock as I follow behind her into the marine ship with a leash on my damn neck
You will pay for this Monkey D. Luffy
Damn your charisma
Also, fuck you old lady for suggesting this in the first place
"This is my...toy," She says shaking the leash a bit more while blushing a bit
"Oh my..." Says the marine looking between the 2 of us while looking rather flustered
Some sounds come from Hancock as Luffy is hiding underneath her clothes
"Well, take them to her umm their room for the time being, and ready the sails," Says the Admiral or whatever
We follow a marine who takes us to the room where Boa and I will be staying in
Plus Luffy
Going inside we wait for a minute or 2 before Boa gets Luffy out and throws him to the side making a small thump sound while I take the damn leash off
"Seriously, a toy?" I ask looking at Boa who is looking everywhere else but me while holding her hands to her cheeks while blushing
"I can't believe it myself," I hear her murmur while I shake my head and turn to glare at Luffy who has a dumb smile on his face
I want to fight him
I really do
But, we can't afford to make too much noise
Then again they think that I am Hancock's boy toy
I let out a huge sigh at that
Then again Hancock is a beautiful woman
But, I am not into that
I take a moment to think
Shit, I hope not
"Can we get some food?" Asks Luffy as he rubs his stomach
These next few days are going to be a pain
#TIMESKIP TO IMPEL DOWN#
"THIS WAY COME ON," Screams Luffy as we make our way through Impel Down to the place where Ace's execution will take place
I follow behind him as fast as I can as we jump around
Thankfully, I was able to recover to some extent but this is going to be difficult...
Oh, shit
I quickly dodge some cannon fire as the fighting goes on around us
"LUFFY, WATCH IT," I scream as he dodges a cannon ball
"We don't a lot of time," He says before extending one of his arms and giving me a lift
(Damn it all) I say lamenting the fact that I am in this mess before I shake it off
"There," Says Luffy before something or rather someone hits us as Luffy jumps again
I quickly look at the man with a cap that says Marines and he is using Conqueror's Haki with his reaching out toward us
He threw a boulder at us
"Luffy don't..." I begin to say as he runs past me
"Damn it," I say as a young man that looks a bit like Luffy comes into view and I can tell that he is not in the best shape as he looks a rather malnourished
"ACE," Screams Luffy as he stands in front of his brother Ace protectively while the Marine rushes forward as his arm seems to turn into lava as he gets closer to impaling Luffy right through the chest
"NO," I scream as I force my body to rush forward as fast as possible
Something inside me seems to come to life as glowing blue lines begin to appear on my body as I rush forward
Time seems to slow down as I unsheathe my sword while using Coating on it and cut the Marines arm off inches before he impales Luffy
I take a brief moment to kick Luffy away so he doesn't come into contact with the magma and I quickly move out of the way as the marine screams in anger and pain as his arm falls to the ground
I smirk at that as something in my body seems to be burning up
Haki is effective against Logia Users
I mentally thank Rayleigh for taking me under his wing and teaching me
"You...," The Marine growls out before moving faster than I could react and grabs me by the throat with his remaining arm and knees me in the stomach while using Haki to cover his knee and I use it to defend myself
My sight begins to go black as he tries to snap my neck with one hand and I can't take in enough air to use TCB to help me
I do manage to stab his side with my sword but he holds onto my neck as I struggle more
The burning feeling gets stronger and stronger as a familiar sensation comes over me
Not again
Not again
Not again...
The glowing lines begin to change colors multiple times as the Marine looks into my eyes confused as he ever so slightly releases some pressure from my neck as I take whatever I can to use TCB and dig my sword deeper into the Marines chest causing him to let me go as I pull my sword out as the familiar lights spin around me as the glowing lines on my body begin to release some sort of energy
"I'll be back," I tell Luffy as in the next moment I am going through a familiar looking place
"NOOOOOOOOOOO," I scream out in despair as Luffy watches me and reaches out his arms in desperation trying to reach me
Soon, I am going through this tunnel
My body begins to burn really bad as I seem to fall down for a long time
Almost like I am being pulled somewhere
I hate this dammit
This is the third time that this has happened and I am no closer to figuring out why this is happening to me
"Interesting, who are you?" Says a voice behind me as I fall
I try to turn but I can't
It's like...
"You seem to be in a bit of trouble, allow me to help you," Says a voice behind me with curiosity in every single word
I try to again to no effect as I feel someone grasp my shoulder and stop me from falling anymore and drag me somewhere else
"What the..." I begin to say in shock still firmly grasping my sword and standing up while taking a deep breath
The man now visible to me smiles with amusement in his eyes as I see him holding a crystalline blade on his right hand using it as a cane to support himself
Analyzing the man some more while my body seems to burn from the inside
"Boy, you have no idea what you are doing to yourself," He says before disappearing from my view
I feel something slam into my back as the heat stops getting hotter and I can feel it very slowly begin to cool down
I turn around to the man as he swipes my sword from my grasp easily
"What..."
"This is quite an interesting blade, beyond what modern humans are capable of," Says the old man
"Who are you?" I ask the old man as he turns from my sword holding it out to me and I take it while keeping my guard up
"I am Kischur Zelretch Schweinorg...
