Time Goes On

Chapter 6

Title: Time Goes On

...

As I look at the newspaper... well the front page says it all...

PIRATE KING GOLD ROGER HAS CONQUERED THE GRAND LINE.

Well, it seems like you did it Roger... but I also didn't really doubt that you could do it either way because I knew you would do it from the manga but... mehhh... anyway back to training.

....

....

One year passes and here I am at the age of eight, fighting against the panda (Po).

I look at my sparring partner, my favorite lazy panda mink, Po, stopping him from becoming too lazy is training on itself. When I look at Poo I see a serious expression on his face. As if he is thinking hard... when I know he isn't. I doubt the panda thinks too much.

Then Poo charges towards me, as soon as I see that. I use a technique I have been learning lately. I twitch my foot muscles and kick the ground creating a crack in it.

<Soru>

I appear behind Poo and I punch him on the back of his head, using a little Haki to increase the dmage.

*Baam*

Immediately Poo falls down while hugging his head and he starts rolling around while painfully complaining.

"Owowowowowowow why did you hit me there that hurt~" Whines Po as some tears appear on his eyes.

I just smile at him slightly and I say. "Well, that is your weak spot obviously."

....

After the spar, if it could even be called that.

I just beat Poo around to make him more motivated… that Panda sure is a lazy sh*t…

Also if I remember things correctly, this is the year where Roger dies... I better return to Fishman Island. I am sure that there will be a lot of humans coming thereafter the age of piracy starts, and then I can save some fishmen. They will feel such gratitude towards me that they will hopefully become my subordinates. Normally I doubt anyone would follow a kid like me, but that can be worked around it when I display my power and start spreading rumors of me being part of Roger's crew.

That is when I will start raising my power… ahhh I love it when things fall beautifully in place...

....

After coating my own small ship I go towards Fishman Island.

....

As I am underwater going towards Fishman island, I see a pirate ship coming up...

Well then... I guess it is my lucky day.

....

I got out of my ship's coated bubble and started… swimming towards the ship at full speed… then as I get close to their ship I hit their coating bubble with my palm.

<Buddha's Palm>

The bubble ripples as soon as I hit it with my palm and...

*Pop*

*Boom*

I crashed into the ship and popped their bubble underwater so all of them are drowning now. Also, the water pressure is crushing them. I look at them as they drown without any resistance. The weak really shouldn't come to the New World… and I consider myself weak too… but these guys were even weaker.

.....

I rummage through their ship for anything valuable. The time I spent with the Roger pirates gave me some insight into spotting treasure and roughly guessing their value.

….

Ok, so I found around 90.000.000 ß of treasure. They probably got it from pillaging, but that is not my problem and I am feeling lucky today. Usually, the regular pirate doesn't have this kind of treasure on their ships. If there was a lottery in this would… I would buy one right away... or not. Because that would be a waste of money.

.

Then I get back on my ship and continue going towards Fishman Island. I bring the treasure in the ship and Po looks at me with a finger in his mouth.

"What?" I ask him as he looks at me so pitifully.

"Was there any good food in the enemy ship?" Asks Po with a hopeful look in his eyes.

Like always asked if there was any good food on the enemy ship… *sigh* this guy...

....

When I arrive at Fishman Island, I use my Observation Haki to the maximum to sense anyone with negative fighting intent… my Observation Haki spreads through a big part of the island. Rayleigh used to say that with my calm mindset I will always be an exception Observation Haki user.

I sense ninety-four people with that forty are Fishman and the others are humans. They are in Mermaid Cove fighting against each other.

Well, then I guess I should go and pay a visit then. Then I turn towards my crew members Po, Shishilian, and Shifu.

"Follow me." I call out to them and start sunning at top speeds towards the Mermaid Cove. This could be useful.

....

When I arrived at the battlefield the fishmen seemed to have it under control and the humans were all defeated. Well, I guess there is nothing for me to do here. Damn, I thought I was going to have my hero moment and save them. Couldn't the attackers have been a little stronger?

....

....

....

Two months later and I get the news that Roger is dead now...

*Slash*

I slashed another human again ninety-seven left. Damn many weaklings have been coming here now that the age of piracy has started.

Well, then how about I try the new trick that I discovered. Then I concentrated my Haki and...

*whoosh*

... fifty-four people… fall down... damn I wanted to get them all. I could have gotten them all but I would have knocked even the civilians and allies, power without control is just a disaster.

Well then let's get rid of these pests and I am going to train with some other people... I hope they are strong.

Then the water covered my blade...

<Water Sword Style: Flying Water Slash>

A blue flying slash went towards my enemies.

"""AAAAHHHHH"""

I cut them all down… then I sheath my sword. Damn, I hope someone stronger shows up next time. I need to advance my Haki some more… I could go to fight Kaido's or Big Mom's crew but I am not suicidal...

....

....

....

Ten months later since Roger's death and still many humans keep coming to Fishman Island in droves.

<Water Sword Style: Flying Water Slash>

A blue energy slash goes towards my enemies and cuts them all down.

"""AHHHHH."""

Most of them are cut down… damn… even though I am not really a full swordsman… I really need to get better at cutting stuff…

Then one of the survivors comes towards me to beg.

"W -WAIT STOP WE PROMISE WE WILL NEVER COME BACK HERE."

I did this once and I came to regret that when they came back with more friends. I don't like unpredictable situations so… sorry but you will have to die for my peace of mind...

I just look at him and his companions indifferently and the ground where I am standing cracks as I use my self taught...

<Soru>

...I appear in front of them and...

*slash**slash**slash**slash**slash*

I quickly cut them all before they can even blink.

Then I look at my side where I see that my subordinates are also killing some pirates and traffickers.

Also, Po has unlocked Observation Haki from continuous battles on Fishman island and me beating him on the head. That is good and Shishilian and Shifu has gotten stronger too. But nowhere near Poo through… that fat panda is quite talented… and lazy...

Also, my new subordinates are 1500 Fishman from the Fishman District that I am convinced to follow me. I used their hatred of humans to my advantage in recruiting them. I am not a hypocrite to hate humans myself since I am human too inside. No matter what my appearance looks like. But using that to my advantage to get me some power is no big deal.

Also got news from 'communicating with the pirate' that Shiki went to Marine Ford and got defeated.... so that is neat.

I also robbed a lot of pirates so that was fun, and I got a lot of money out of it too, I really am getting richer, especially since I don't currently pay most of my subordinates, hooray to some free labor... though I might have to start paying them to keep them in my little army.

....

....

....

Another year passes and it feels like I am just training during these last times. But it has definitely shown its results, as even though I am only ten-years-old...

I coat my sword in Haki to not damage it.

<Water Sword Style: Flying Water Slash>

The flying sword wave kills some enemies.

I heard from interrogating pirates, that as I expected... Shiki has escaped Impel Down.

Also, scum has started coming here more, it just isn't good for training anymore and it has gotten a little crowded. I should move out soon, I don't wanna help anyone if it doesn't give me at least some benefits.

Then as I try to find any hidden enemies with my Observation Haki I think about my plan. I will soon be going to the New World now… that should be exciting...

.....

.....

....

Another year passes and I look over the plans of the underground & underwater city. I have planned an airway system and everything. Currently, it is just a cave in which the only entry is by going underwater.

I got these Fishmen to do free labor for me so the building process is going really fast already... but I would like this process sped up.

Also haven't had a good fight in ages... I need to go and find someone who will help me advance my Haki more.

Though I am still not willing to endanger myself against someone like a Yonko Commander or anything like that. Even if my Haki would advance faster... I would with no doubt die... after all I don't have enough… plot armor...

AUTHOR NOTE:

Also, the MC isn't a Swordsman or anything like that he just uses a sword because it does more damage than a fist. Imagine if all of Luffy's attacks had the lethal power him using a sword... but I guess he wouldn't be Luffy if he used a sword.🤣

P.S: Lots of time skips in this, I know... but the story has to move along.
