I am a Rich Second Generation in One Piece Ch 38
"Gomu Gomu no pistol."
Luffy slammed his fist as it stretched like rubber. Looking at Luffy's extremely stretched arm, Seth's face changed a bit. He was pretty much curious about this Gomu Gomu no Mi ability.
A.N.: {I know, but I don't want to give any spoiler >_<}
Still, that didn't mean that he wanted to be hit by Luffy's fist.
A few seconds before Luffy's fit would hit Seth's face, Seth's figure grew blurry as he disappeared from his original spot.
Soru!
Seth's figure disappeared in front of everyone, and Luffy's attack hit empty air. Then, before the eyes of everyone here, Seth suddenly appeared right in front of Luffy.
His fist was raised as he launched a punch at Luffy's head, perfectly replicating Garp's fist of love. Nonetheless, Seth has not yet begun his armament Haki training, and therefore it didn't deal any damage to Luffy.
" It doesn't hurt.. it is not like Grandpa's…'
Luffy murmured. Retreating a few steps, a smile grew on Luffy's face as he realized that Seth was not able to hurt him. Now all that's left for him was to spam his attack and waited for Seth to be tired.
After all, Luffy didn't believe that Seth would out stamina him.
As for Seth, even though his attack was rendered useless under Luffy's rubber body, he didn't grow nervous at all. Luffy's current Attack speed for him was like a crawling snail. Even if his eyes were to be closed, Seth wouldn't find it difficult to avoid Luffy's attack with his beginner observation haki.
To be honest, it would be funny if he just let Luffy win.
Thinking about Garp's face when Luffy shouted he won and he will be a pirate king, it was a very tempting thing to do to Seth.
But just the moment he was about to release the water, he suddenly felt a killing intent that was so intense, unlike what he had ever felt before.
' Damn old man... dragging me into this kind of family business.'
As of now, Seth really had no other choice but to comply with Garp's request and beat Luffy senseless.
But when Seth no longer uses Soru to avoid Luffy's attack and just barely swings his body, Luffy thinks Seth has started to be tired. Luffy screamed with all his power as he swung his arm quickly.
" Gomu Gomu no Gattling Gun!!!!"
In the face of this constantly flashing fist, Seth's face flashed a hint of surprise.
It was like a move that he liked to do during his childhood, spamming his fist and hoping one of them hit.
Yet even hundreds of them were useless in the eyes of Seth.
He was dancing in the middle of Luffy's barrage as none of Luffy's attacks were able to hit him.
' Hmm… so this is why people like to play smurfs. Indeed, this felt pretty satisfying.'
Seth was currently enjoying his time. But here, someone seemed to not have the same patience as Seth.
Garp who was watching from the side began to grow impatient. This brat, is he taking this as a joke? Inhaling a vast amount of air, Garp shouted at Seth:
" Little brat! How long are you gonna play around! Finish this quickly or you will be the one that receives my fist of love!"
" Wait, it's not like I don't want to! You see that he is immune to my attacks, right?" Seth tried to retort.
But it was all useless.
" Humph, who are you trying to deceive? Do you think I don't know that you have mastered your devil fruit ability to some extent? Quick wrap this thing up. It starts to get boring!"
"...."
At the end of the day, Seth really couldn't win against Garp. He just sighed as he showed an apologetic look to Luffy.
" Sorry, but I need to finish this now.."
"Sword of ink"
Seth's right hand held his brush as it gently move as he scribbled an ink sword, and a dark black long sword slowly appeared in his hand.
At this time, Luffy also came to Seth as he leaped high into the air. Just now, his instinct told him that Seth was dangerous, and he needed to finish this battle as soon as possible.
" Gomu-Gomu no.."
" Futile effort…"
With a bang, Everyone saw Seth's figure disappear once again, fully avoiding Luffy's attack. And just when everyone still could not react to what happened, Seth had already reappeared behind Luffy.
The black sword in his hand was on Luffy's shoulder, the sharp black blade, clinging to Luffy's neck.
" You lose!" Seth said calmly.
" No.. I haven't.."
" No, you have lose!"
Seth fully knew how stubborn Luffy was, and just this would not be enough to convince Luffy of his defeat. Therefore, he had played a trick on his ink sword.
Just when Luffy thought he was about to counterattack, he suddenly felt his body stiffen as if it was tied up by something.
And when he turned to see what had happened, Luffy was shocked. The black ink sword on Seth's hand was no more, and instead, it had changed into a black snake that wrapped around Luffy's body, preventing him to move as well as bounding him.
" Like I previously said, you have lost this battle."
. . . . . .
Dadan, who was watching the flow of the battle, saw this scene and thought secretly in her heart: "This person, like Luffy, is a Devil Fruit Ability User."
She said softly to Garp: "Garp, this time isn't it a bit too much? You brought some unknown brat and asked him to beat Luffy. I understand if it was you, but to suddenly bring someone..."
Dadan was Garp's old acquaintance, so she was pretty much used to all of Garp's antics. Still, she still felt to bring Seth here was not like Garp's usual style.
But Garp even after hearing this just laughed out loud.
" Hahahaha, don't worry Dadan. That kid Seth was even better at controlling himself than me. Furthermore, I really wanted to let Luffy know that the sea is not as easy as he thinks. If he comes to the sea with this kind of strength, it would not be long until he would be forced to bury his dream."
" …. "
Dadan could only sigh as she listened to Garp's explanation. After all, what he said pretty much made sense.
Little did they know that from afar, Seth was having the best laugh of today as he heard Garp's words.
' Luffy? Don't worry Garp. He has an even thicker plot armor than Roger's mustache.'
