Chapter 2 - CHAPTER 2 - Portgas D.Ace

.

"Hey borodo how long till we reach the louge town" I asked as I was sick of only eating fish every day, I was an Indian so I was naturally longing for vegetables and spicy food.

But for the past two days all I had been eating was this grilled fish and I even had to feed five useless pirates and borodo with nothing but salt, pepper and fish meat.

"Arya I see louge town we will be there soon" Borodo said, my mood suddenly picked up finally some land to walk and soon we approached the harbour.

But as soon as I saw the welcome we had I was stunned as in front of me was the famous smoker the white hunter.

"Pirate's surrender now or else you will regret it" a marine announced. I turned calm and replied "We are not pirates; we captured the tramp pirate's who occupied our island, our goal is to hand them over to collect their bounty" I shouted.

Soon we landed and marines aboard the ship and arrested them, "Thank you for the hard work please come with us so you can claim their bounty" the marine said with a salute, I was naturally happy who wouldn't be to receive money.

I did not bothered much after the handing over procedures is over I was asked to be in the town so they can arrange the money, then the first thing I did was to drag borodo and enter a restaurant, as I had many dishes may be due to being in this world or due to devil fruit ability I was able to eat so much more as much as four people servings even I was surprised after eating that much food.

And the money was paid by the marine only for today, them I slept in a nice bed as tears rolled down my face it has been 15 months since he had such luxury.

The next day I went to receive the bounty money, I expected around twenty million but who would have thought I got thirty million after deducting some charges, I was overjoyed so much that I nearly chocked borodo. Well he did not complain as even he was happy to see so much money.

The first thing I did was to buy a locker which cost one hundred thousand belli then a bed which was only five thousand belli I brought few strong metals and some fabrics, and cloths I wore a normal blue jeans and a white shirt, while borodo changed into a jeans and red T-shirt.

After buying cloths we returned back to Clockwork Island, from the information I gathered I found out that roger died 18 years ago from the plot I know ace went on his journey when he was 17, and was born two years after the roger death and his birthday was January 1st so I calculated that he would leave the foosha island next year.

I wanted to get stronger by then and get ace as my crew member, and what about the plot you ask, screw it.

After returning we had arya had a very tough time, as they designed a centrifuge suitable for high-G training it can reach a stunning mach 3 speed and an Aerotrim which has a reaches 300 kmph (Astronauts and fighter jet pilots use it for training. The speed and power is high as author thought it is acceptable for one piece world).

With the clockwork island experts after nearly four months of hard work they were able to make it possible.

"So finally we made it but what is the use of it" Akisu asked as he saw the big centrifuge, "This is to help us for training" I said as I used my ability to arrange bricks covering the centrifuge.

"So let me enter it first" I said as soon as it was ready to use. And trust me it is bad for health, it had a very high power which the experts of the island used it was a master piece. To travel at five kilometre per minute was very bad and it was just beginning after a minute when speed increased I passed out by throwing up all I had for breakfast.

And as for borodo who first tried aerotrim is in even worst condition since he was weaker than me physically. Seeing our conditions the others who wanted to experience it ran away.

But it was fun finally one of my dream came true as I felt like an astronaut sitting in the giant centrifuge.

After the initial fail to endure it, we tried many times, and sad part the centrifuge always won even without a trouble and with that frustration me and borodo went to a restaurant and ate to our stomach full.

"Borodo I am planning do something like becoming the king of pirates, and if I want to become king of pirate I need strong friends to clean up small fries like marine admirals and yonko. As my navigator and my first crew member you had to get strong, if you cannot even endure this small hardship from a machine how could I become a pirate king" I said while pointing at borodo for him being weak.

"When did I ever say I'll become a pirate, and I had not joined you. And like help I'll support you in something like that fight a admiral is one thing fighting a yonko I say you should have your head examined" Borodo said outraged, I did not listen to him as I imagined how nice becoming the pirate king would be I would have money and girls.

Arya was laughing while day dreaming as borodo who saw it gave up on speaking, for better or worse an abnormal like arya entered his life and said some crazy things, It worked once so why not try again borodo thought. And seeing arya's genuine smile even though it was creepy he could not help but smile and hit arya's head.

"You say all this but still not able to handle it for more than a minute" Borodo said, "Hey I lasted for 2 minutes today before fainting" arya shouted.

.

After several months

"Borodo come on I want to go to Dawn Island hurry up" I (arya) shouted, as borodo entered the ship weakly. "Cha, I thought my first mate would be very strong but he is just a little weak person" I teased.

"Shut up, a month ago even you are in the same condition, but still I am getting used to mach 1 speed already few more days and it should be no problem for me to continue in centrifuge for a hour at mach speed" Borodo justified himself.

"I had already moved to mach 2, hihihihi…" Arya said as he turned the boat and set to sail, after few months under borodo guidance even arya was able to operate a sail boat.

This time their task is to hunt down a bandit group called red riot bandits to get their bounty of 18 million and to recruit ace.

It took us two days to reach Dawn Island, as we took a room rent for one month at parts restaurant I was happy to see makino for the first time. She was a little uncomfortable to how nice I was being to her, and borodo dragged me away I think she misunderstood me as a pervert.

Anyway there was no sign of ace till now so instead we had a captured red riot bandits in the mean time after getting the bounty we had a pleasant stay in the foosha village for a week.

The next morning I was sleeping when I heard someone fighting, I woke up and looked outside only to see ace and borodo fighting.

You might not believe it but ace was actually winning even after several months of training in centrifuge and aerotrim to adjust to high speed and regular work outs. I know borodo was strong enough to take on two trump siblings at once and win but he was still no match for ace.

It was a hard fight as borodo was able to somehow get ace out of the ship but has a blood drop near his mouth while ace had only few bruise.

Seeing borodo getting I could not sit still I shot towards ace and captured him with his hands behind (After some serious training with such super machines it would be odd if MC is not strong enough to handle ace without fruit powers).

"Why are you attacking borodo" I asked as ace struggled hard, I felt if I let him go for a split second he could escape me so I held him tight.

"You tell that idiot arya, he was trying to steal our ship" Borodo said, "I was not going to steal it I was just going to borrow it" Ace said.

While makino has brought a first aid kit and started to treat borodo, while luffy was watching all this with a finger in his nose.

"let's talk it looks like makino-san knows you" I said while releasing ace.

"Man you are strong how about you join my crew" ace asked forgetting that we were fighting just a moment ago.

"You are a idiot, but tell me why did you attack us" I asked, "Well I heard about you both bounty hunters and thought if you are strong I would recruit you and also I need a ship to travel and since your ship was big I wanted to borrow it" Ace said, he did not even notice what a unreasonable thing he just said.

I was speechless, but I wanted ace since he was strong "we are also pirates, we just wanted to wait till we had enough members to go on our adventure" I said, "What so you are also pirates" Ace asked surprised, I found it funny how he acted so I laughed.

"Ok since you are also a pirate let's have a davy back fight. Whoever wins will become the captain the loser will swear loyalty to the new captain" I asked.

"A davy back fight, Shishishi looks like fun" luffy said, "Brat it is not only fun but also dangerous for example if ace here wants to become a pirate king and if he loses then he will be helping me to become the pirate king" I said with seriousness.

"Ha, if it is not like that then where the fun if I lose then it means I was not strong enough" Ace said with a laugh.

"Since I am strong I'll tell you I have a devil fruit ability toro toro no mi I can turn into liquid human so normal punches won't affect me" I said as I turned to liquid.

"What a weird person you are" luffy and ace both said, "Hey arya why are you telling them your abilities" Borodo shouted.

"It is okay, borodo since ace will be our third member" I said with a laugh, "and I'll be the captain" ace said.

I laughed at his words "Ok the game is simple we both fight whoever give up or gets knocked out will lose, I want this fight to be fair so I will not use my devil fruit powers".

Five minutes later each of us got a black eye…

Fifteen minutes later we are punching each other one after another…

One hour later we had thrown up what all we ate as we are still fighting…

Three hours later ace is down as I shouted loudly over my victory.

.

The next day,

I woke up to see ace and luffy were eating meat like snacks and borodo and makino were smiling at them.

"Arya you are awake, you can join us after had bath" Makino said.

"Well makino-san, before that since we have a new crew member ace. We are going to celebrate ask everyone in the village to attend it, and here is the money to arrange it" I said laughing.

"Yes arya, I portages.D.ace will be under your care and one day I shall become a pirate king" Ace said as I was speechless again.

"I am the captain so I'll become pirate king" I said, "No I will be the one to become pirate king" luffy said even though he was not involved in the conversation. Then we all laughed, while borodo was speechless by us.
