CH. 5 Koushirou Part 1

The sun was shining brightly as it radiant its bright light across the world. The sea was also like a beautiful gem as the sun shines on it. Reflecting and showing a beautiful shining and glittering blue surface of the sea.

The winds was also blowing softly, creating soft waves as they splash together. Everything was perfectly white and shining brightly, excepts for a certain area.

The soft waves that was splashing together slowly turns into a huge waves with violent force crushing down into the deep sea. Thick Fog and mist spread throughout the whole area, blocking any sign of sunlight into the sea.

Covering the entire area in darkness. Upon the darkness of the thick mist and fog. A hums was spreading throughout the area. The sounds was soft and feels like their was no harm, however if one listens to it. One would feels like their is a knife crawling down their spine.

"Hm~!"

"What a beautiful day!" said a man siting on a chair by the decks of a ships. "However, it's a shame that I could not see it!" continued the man as he was closing hie eyes as there was nothing to see except fog and mists.

Leaning back on the chair with a smile. The man or Shin thought of something and thinks back to the past few days, before he decided to ask.

"System!" called Shin.

"Ding!"

[Yes]

"I have a question?"

[Ask away!]

"Do I have any mission or task I have to do?" asked Shin as it is being quite a bother for him that he can't really answered, as in the status menu. There was no sign of Mission or Task Bar in the screen.

[Oh!]

[Of course you have!]

[Why?]

"Well, there is no mission or task that has assigned to me yet! There is also no mission or task bar in the screen!" said Shin and opens the screen as it has only his [Status], [Summon], [Inventory], and [System Shop].

[Really?!]

[Wait a seconds!]

Hearing the System words, Shin decided to follow it and waits or a second or more.

"Ding!"

[Mission Function Open!]

[New Mission has been Assigned!]

[Mission has starts Processing!]

[Some Mission are Complete!]

[Please received your reward!]

Seeing the pops up in front of him and Shin smiles, as he really like the words reward. Without hesitation, Shin opens his screen menu and saw a new function has appeared in the bar.

[Mission]

Clicking it without hesitation, the screens changes as a new screen appeared in front of him. Shin looks at the screen and smile brightly as he saw what in it.

[New Mission]

[Decided the path of our future!]

[Pirate, Marine, Revolutionary, World Government or Independent Organization]

[Reward: The World Map, Lesser Dead Returning Ticket]

[Completed Mission]

[First Summon]

[Reward: Middle Dead Returning Ticket]

Looking at the reward and mission that was assigned by the System. Shin smiles happily and looks around the mission screen.

However as he looks around he mission screen. He stops and stare at a mission which was like a lighting striking him on his body.

Being both stiff and in deep thought as he stare at the [New Mission]. As for him, who has just realized and arrived in a new world. To directly choose a force is quite a difficult decision.

'Which side should I go with?' thought Shin and rubbed his head in frustration as this decision will be the path to his future. 'Maybe Pirate?' thought Shin as he is now on the process of visiting and picking his third member.

However, as he thought back to the being a pirate. There are some disadvantages and some of it might not be good for him.

'System! Any opinion?' asked Shin as he decided to take in some suggestion.

"Ding!"

[Well]

[What do you want to do in this new world then Host?]

"I don't know" answered Shin.

[From the System Suggestion!]

[Why don't you be an Independent Organization!]

[It is free and you could freely choose if you wants to be on the good side or bad side! You just needs to have your goal! Being on the Marine or Pirates doesn't really matter! Just do what it best for you and make you reach your goal!]

Hearing the System suggestion Shin astonished and shocks at the same time. I never thought that such a forgetful system could say such word. However, as he thought back to the System word, Shin felt that it was true.

Tap

Feeling a taps on his shoulder as he was thinking about the mission. Shin decided to open his eyes to looks at who was tapping at him at the moments ago. As he pen his eyes to look, a face of an old man appeared an inch away from him.

"WAH!" Being both frighten and shocks, Shin jumped and pushed himself back as the chair he was sitting on fall backward. Falling from the chair and hitting himself in the head as he falls from the chair.

Shin rubs his head and decided to looks at the cause of the falls. "What is it! Flying Dutchman!" shouted Shin in anger as he looks at the old man, who is laughing and floating in front of him.

"Hahahaha! Nothing Master!" laughed Flying Dutchman. "I am just here to tell you that we are almost at the Shimotsuki Village!" said the Flying Dutchman and smile as he floats away.

Slowly standing up from the floor. Shin rubbed his back and head as he was annoyed by the Flying Dutchman. Reaching out his hands to grabs the chair, as he pull it up and places it back. He walks forward and sits on it as he looks in front of him.

Waving his hands, the thick fog and mists in front of him slowly disappeared and slowly a small figure of an islands appeared in his sight.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Shimotsuki Village a peaceful and beautiful Japanese Style islands in East Blue, was filled with trees and nature. It was one of the best islands that is fitting or relaxing and calming oneself.

Walking along the path as Shin and Ikaruga was now attracting attention from other people on the island. "What a beautiful and peaceful country!" said Shin and looks around him as it is mostly filled with paddle field.

"Yes, Master! It is" said Ikaruga and looks around the village as well. Seeing that Ikaruga was enjoying the walks, Shin smiles as he realize that he made the right decision to leave Kuro-chan and Flying Dutchman at the shore of the island.

After a few minutes of walking around the village. Both Shin and Ikaruga ended up in front of a house with a sigh showing that it is a Dojo. Looking at ech other, Shin nodded his head to which Ikaruga smiles and walks to the door of the house.

Knock, Knock

Ikaruga knocked on the wooden door and then took a step back and waits along with Shin in front of the door. Waiting for a few seconds, a shadow from behind the door was coming closer to the door and it slides open.

"Hello. How can I help you?' asked a man with a glass as he was in thirty. Looking at the man in front of him, Shin smiles widely as he was filled with both happiness and excitement. 'Ah! Master Koushirou! Zoro's Master!' thought Shin with excitement.

"Hello, Master Koshirou! We are here to meet you" said Shin. "Meet me!?" Koshirou was surprised and looks at Shin and Ikaruga. "Yes" answered Shin. "We are here to meet you, Master Koshirou!" smiled Shin as he looks at Koshirou, who smiles back at him.
