22 Fun

"How the hell do you do this?" Garp said frustratedly.

"Give up Garp, only Lucifer can do this," Kizaru sighed.

I smiled, "Okay."

Sakazuki had a frown on his face, "So your nimble, a heavy hitter, can tank hits, and use illusions to confuse people. Anything else?"

"Ah... I'm a speedster, swordsman, gunslinger, sniper, and can speak to animals....," I said and thought for a bit, "And I can cook."

"Oh that's good to know....," he frowned.

"When did you learn all these things?" Sengoku asked.

"My mom had me on a very serious training schedule," I said seriously.

"Of course.. Care to share it?" Garp asked.

"Three hours of sleep, two hours of swordsmanship, an hour of language, two hours of gunmanship, then an hour of sniping, another hour of language, hour of physical training, hour of defense, five minute meal, two hour run, hour obstical course, hour of 3d chess, two hours to learn techniques, two hours of ninja skills, hour to meditate, ten minutes to eat and rest, three hours to learn anything else," I recounted my training schedule from the first run on the island with Aka.

Silence.... They gave me pure silence.

-Mission complete! Gained discount ticket-

"If I wanted to eat, I had to get my own food after hunting it and cook it myself. When I turned 5, I didnt need so much time to do it so the time was spent learning navigation," I said and looked at the rings I had gotten in the first run.

Sengoku pushed Sakazuki toward me, whispering, "Hes your kid. Fix it."

Sakazuki stood in front of me with a questioning look before squatting down, "Hey. Buck up."

I met eyes with him, "Yes sir. Sorry for slacking off on training these past few days."

"An important part of training is learning when to let your body rest. You're going to stay tiny if you dont rest properly. So buck up," Sakazuki said with a frown.

"Yes sir," I nodded.

"Good. Now, what can and cant you eat? Do you need anything?" He asked.

"I can have bread and breaded food, but most meat doesnt sit well with me so I tend to not eat it unless I have to. If I cant put tea in it, I cant eat it. I have everything I need. Thank you," I said.

"Your room is empty. How do you have everything you need?" He smirked.

"Relic bag that has the ability to store things. I filled it with my things already and keep it on me at all times," I said with a straight face.

"Show me," he demanded.

I pulled out my bag and questioned if I should pour it out. Ultimately deciding to, I turned the bag over and out came a crystal clear coffin, snacks, empty alcohol bottles, a laser pointer, games, tea tree, tea cups, tea sets, daily necessities, soaps, bath bombs, and other odds and ends.

I picked up a bloody sewing kit and put it in my inventory. Someone noticed. Sengoku spoke up, "What did you just hide?"

I glared at him, mad he let Sakazuki know, "Its nothing."

"You dont try to hide nothing. Hand it over," Sakazuki said angrily.

I frowned and handed over the bloody sewing kit. Sakazuki frowned, "Why would you hide this?"

As he opened it and poured it into his hand, his frown turned into a pissed off face, "What is this?"

"A sewing kit," I said and put everything else up.

"I see that but why is everything soaked in blood? This thread is too big for stitches and needles shouldnt have blood rusted to it!" he raised his voice and spoke angrily.

Instead of answering, I unbuttoned my shirt. All eyes were on me. Sengoku, Garp, and Kizaru gasped as they saw my back before Sakazuki did. Sakazuki had only seen my arm and part of my chest, so when I turned to show him the rest, he became furious.

I undid my belt, holding my boxers up, and showed off my legs as well. I spoke, "I was going to get rid of them so you didnt know about it."

"What is this?" he was breathing out smoke as he touched the threads.

"The amount of lives taken to spare my own. My mom told me I had to do it," I told him, "Since she is dead, I can get rid of it now."

"Then get rid of them now," he demanded angrily.

I nodded and pulled out my glove, "One moment." I snapped and the thread was set on fire before turning to ash. I took the glove off and put it up as my skin healed at a visible pace.

Sakazuki nodded, "I'm taking this. You will not do something so heathenistic again. Do you understand?"

I nodded silently.

"Good. Now put some clothes on," he grumbled and went to speak with the others. I put on my suit and dripped some saline into my eyes before blinking.

'Do you recommend anything?'

-New mission target! Host should find a reason to fight-

-New Mission! Amuse Sakazuki, Sengoku, Kizaru, and Kuzan. 0/4. Reward: Dancing skill mastered. Failure: Inability to use substitution technique-

'Right now?! Kuzan isnt even here!'

-Host has a week-

-6:23:59:59-

'Shit... What's amusing though?'

-Host is suggested to continue balance training-

I made an odd look before glancing to see if I was being watched. Nope. Taking a few steps back to see if they would notice,... nope. I turned and went to the side of the arena, a ways away from them. I placed a few poles into the ground a large distance from each other, at different heights, and climbed on top of one. Standing on a single foot, I switched to my tip toes like a ballerina would before flipping and landing on my hand. I pushed off the pole and landed on my finger tips before taking back a finger at a time until I was left on a single finger.

Bending my arm, I launched myself toward another pole and landed on my tip toes. Nodding, "Warm up is good."

I took out a sword and summoned a clone, "Technique only."

The clone nodded and started attacking me as I dodged, staying only on tiptoes or finger tips. It was too easy for me. I made nine more clones before letting them attack me.

-Mission completion: 3/4-

Sakazuki approached and sent attacks at me. I dodged swiftly and smiled, "Did you miss on purpose?"

"You little shit!" Sakazuki yelled.

-Mission Complete! Gained <legendary> dancing skills-

Sakazuki became enraged and threw more lava balls at me, and all the poles. To save my ass, I dipped below the top if the poles and hung by my toes before flipping and dropping to the ground, "That was challenging and fun. Let's do it again!"

"No. Sit down and read a book or something," Sakazuki growled.

"Yessir," I sighed and followed him back to the group, letting the clones put the poles away.

He pointed to the ground a few feet away, "Sit down."

I silently sat down and took out a drawing pad. Noticing the arrival of another person, I waved at them then went back to flipping pages. Finding an empty page, I started drawing out Aka as a small cat and hummed You'll Be Okay by A Great Big World.

Soon I heard a voice ask behind me, "What are you humming?"

"You'll Be Okay by A Great Big World." I said quietly.

"Do you know the lyrics?" the voice asked.

"Indeed but I was told to sit and be quiet," I said.

"You can come with me, he wont mind," they said.

"Yes I will mind. Leave him alone, glorified ice cube," Sakazuki said.

I looked at the person who spoke then back at Sakazuki. Kuzan smirked at me, "Worth a try," looked at Sakazuki, "Shut up hot head."

I kept looking between them then shrugged and finished my drawing. Someone tried to pick me up, so I glanced at who it was and stared at them as they spoke, "The wind could blow you away."

I frowned, "No it cant. Please put me down."

"Only if you agree to call me Uncle," he smirked.

"Only if you answer my question," I said.

"Alright, ask away," he smiled.

"Why did you want to hear that song?" I asked.

"Because it sounded so sad yet you seemed happy to hum it. Why would a young boy be happy with sad sounding songs?" Kuzan asked.

"Pft it's actually one of the happier songs I like," I chuckled a bit.

"Really?" he asked.

"Yup. Now put me down, Uncle," I chuckled. Kuzan put me down and smiled.

"Dont call him uncle again," Sakazuki frowned.

"You heard him," I smiled, "I cannot call you Uncle, mister."

"Sigh, no fun," Kuzan sighed.

I put my drawing pad away and went to sit back down, Garp came to sit with me. He asked, "Is that song really better than that one from earlier?"

"The first one, yes. The one about Neverland, tied," I said and sighed.

"Bored?" he asked.

I nodded.

"I have a grandson your age, he cant sit still to save his life. How are you so calm?" Garp asked.

"I lived through impossible situations and made it out by the skin of my teeth. I guess it helped me grow up...," I said.

"And your mom? Where is she?" he asked. Sakazuki glanced at me, Sengoku damn near strained his ears to hear my response.

I looked down, "Mom only told dad where to find us because her health was declining. She made half the journey to the island before she just didnt wake up. Following her traditions, I burned her body at sea..."

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didnt know," Garp said quietly then glared at Sakazuki.

"Its fine, shes better off now so I cant be completely sad," I said and sighed softly.

Silence... I looked up and found all eyes looking at me oddly. I raised an eyebrow and questioned, "What?"

"You are at least a little sad right?" Garp asked.

I frowned at him then sighed, "What do you think?"

Silence... I put a headphone over my left ear and played That's not my name by The Ting Tings. I needed a mood change so I ignored the group and made a clone and told it, "Go to sleep."

I moved away from the group a bit and placed a pillow down, made another clone, "Meditate."

I made another clone and placed another pillow, "Refine."

I made another clone, "Read."

Another, "Draw."

Another, ".....Surprise me."

As I turned to make another, the last clone spoke to me, "We should master transformation jutsu."

"On who? It's illegal to impersonate a marine, we know that," I said to the other me.

"Indeed but it would be funny. There is always the se..." clone me said but I killed it before it finished.

I made another one, "We will not try 'that' jutsu."

"You know, you use to be fun," clone said and killed itself.

I stared at the smoke before making another, "I am fun, you just want to get in trouble. Reverse psychology doesnt work on... us."

A hand landed on my shoulder, "I'll give you a free pass, so stop fighting with yourself..."

My clone smirked, "See. Now join the dark side. We gave up cookies and switched to cupcakes."

"Woah now. Cup cakes are too heavy. You should join the light side. We have Earl grey with lemon honey," I smirked.

We laughed then became serious and signed quickly before we both released the sexy jutsu... Poof!

"Oh my god!" Sengoku yelled and averted his eyes. My clones and I were rolling on the floor laughing.

The others turned to look and freaked out as well. We laughed so hard the jutsu was released and my clones killed themselves quickly. I was caught and picked up by Sakazuki, "ARE YOU TRYING TO GIVE ME A HEART ATTACK?!"

"Sen... haha...Sengoku said.... hahaha I had a pass... hahahahaha, oh god that was funny," I laughed.

"DONT EVER DO THAT AGAIN!" Sakazuki yelled.
