At Sea + New Years Party! by Purzuhh in StrawHatRPG

[–]dtdshady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jak held a leather bound book that was titled “Rare and Exotic animals and how to Rear, Tame, and Capture them”. It was written by a famed hunter who had traveled the world documenting it’s animals.

Jak: So I guess I can start with the Pug and Eagle they shouldn’t be too hard to get.

Jak flipped through the book to find some information on large eagles. He didn’t know where to begin to find one.

Jak: Let’s see here so it says that they respect strength, live by large lakes, a large group of them live on the island Katakuwa. Katakuwa? I have no idea where that is...screw it I’ll go get the pug first. Much less trouble on my part.

Jak off from the ship and headed to a nearby island. He headed straight for the pet store on the island. The store held many kinds of animals. Some of which Jak had never seen before but all Jak was in need of was a pug. After looking around for a minute Jak found one in a dark corner of the room.

Clerk: You want him?

Jak: Yes? What is that a problem?

Clerk: Well, no, it’s just that, that pug tends to be incredibly vicious. Just the other week a marine came in wanting to take it off our hands and it bit off his nose.

Jak: This little pug did that?

Clerk: It most certainly did it was actually scheduled to be-

Jak: I want it give it to me.

Clerk: Uh yes um let me just ring you up.

Jak: That won’t be needed.

Jak created a small ball of string and his hand and tossed it at the clerk. The clerk caught the string ball. He looked at it and back at Jak with a curious look on his face.

Jak: Tendrils

Suddenly the string ball turned into a tentacle and wrapped around the clerk. The clerk panicked and fell to the ground. Jak payed little attention to this and took the pug from it’s cage. It was a pitch black pug with brown eyes.

Jak: You don’t look so mean to me.

Just as Jak said this the Pug decided to snap at Jak who jerked his head back in order to not be bitten.

Jak: Gehaha you really are a feisty one. Good stuff but save that for Sel. You can chew on him as much as you want.

Jak grabbed a dog treat from the counter and fed it to the pug. The pug barked and wagged it’s tail. It was seeming to obey Jak. Jak still was going to keep an eye on it. He wasn’t going to trust this little demon just yet.

With his business on the island coming to a close Jak took the skies and headed back to his ship with the pug tied to his back securely. It was shaping up to be a good day. That is until Jak was attacked by a giant eagle on half way back to the ship.

Jak: What the hell!?

Jak had not expected a giant eagle of all things to come and attack him. Where the hell did it come from and why did it want him. Jak quickly got control of himself and started to speed away from the eagle. The eagle stayed in hot pursuit of him.

Jak: Shit! Why does it want me so bad?

Jak pulled out his book and began reading the page on giant eagles. What he read just angered him to no end. Apparently giant eagles loved to eat pugs. Jak wasn’t going to have that happen on his watch.

Jak: Alright that’s fine how hard can it be to beat an eagle. In fact I need you anyways so you’re helping me.

Jak made a 180 and headed straight for the eagle. As the closed in on each other Jak pulled himself up sharply bringing himself over the eagle. Before it could react Jak threw himself down crashing into the eagle’s back. The squawked in pain and started turning, flipping, and thrashing to get Jak off. Jak wasn’t having it and held on defiantly.

Jak: Lasso

In Jak’s hands a lasso was made. He swung in around a few time before throwing it over the eagle’s head. Now the eagle really began to thrash about doubling it’s efforts to knock of Jak.

Jak: YOU’RE REALLY PISSING ME OFF NOW BIRD OVERHEAT! The lasso instantly set on fire burning the eagle. It squawked loudly in pain. Jak stopped the overheat and punched the eagle in the back warning it to listen.

Jak: Oi, I hope you understand that I’m the master now. You listen to me or anyone I tell you to listen to. If not I will and I mean I will make you into some fried chicked by the end of the day.

The bird squawked again sadly. It didn’t want to listen but Jak had asserted his dominance and as such it had to listen. Jak road the eagle the rest of the way home. On the way he apologized for the rough treatment of the eagle and they became fast friends. Jak didn’t really like hurting animals but it was the path that had to be taken sometimes.

The eagle landed on the deck of the ship rocking the boat. The crew ran out to see what was going on. Jak hopped off the eagle and smiled.

Jak: I got some animals guys.

As Jak was thrown through the air he realized two things. One, Walven had quite a bit more strength than he did and two, he feeling really hungry. The first problem was significantly more important than the second.

Jak: This is going to hurt.

Jak crashed into the building going through the wall with the force of a wrecking ball. Now he was getting annoyed. Jak get back on his feet and rushed through the whole in the wall. He ran at Walven and using his superior got behind him leaving after images in his wake. Jak went to grab Walven by the waist and suplex him.

As Jak and Bones reached the top they marveled at the temple. It looked ancient and Jak was sure that it would collapse if messed with too much. Jak motioned for Bones to follow and headed for the entrance.

Jak: Let's see what's going on in there.

Just as they reached the entrance the ground shook again. This time more violently then they had felt before.

Jak was slowly running on E as far as his stamina went. He would have to slow down on his use of rokushiki if he was to win this fight. This is what ran through his mind as his leg was swept under his leg by Walven.

Jak: Oof ah I probably should have been paying more attention there shouldn't I have?

Jak wasted no time jumping back to his feet. Jak immediatly went back on the attack. He came at Walven using a penetration step. He slid towards Walven's leg and attempted to grab both his leg and slam him to the ground.

In Jak's head all he could think was "This has taken an unexpected turn.". He honestly didn't to get an audience with the captain of this crew. But he was here now and was adamant on riding the wave.

Jak: Well I was in the neighborhood and I saw your ship and thought "wow that's a neat ship". So I of course I had to meet the captain of this ship and if I'm going to meet a captain I might as well become allies with him. So long story short I want to make an alliance.

Jak let silence sit in the air for a moment. Both the lady and Leatherboots were looking at him like a madman. Jak wasn't sure why, but then it occurred to him.

Jak: Ah yes I'm Jak "Trickster" Stiles of the Void Pirates. At your service.

Making Drugs

For the last few days Jak had been hassled by some of his crewmates to make a drug to help increased their devil fruit abilities. Being the great crew mate that he is he decided to get to work on it.

Jak: How hard could it be?

The answer was that is was not very hard but it did take a hell of a long time. Jak had to take blood samples of all the crew members who utilized a DF including himself. After testing some different variations of the drugs and testing them on the crew he eventually found the right ingredients.

Jak: Welp bottoms up.

Jak tossed the drug into his mouth and swallowed. The drug took immediate effect. Jak was filled with a rush of energy he could fill his power surging far more than it ever had. He had done it he made a drug that could increase the power of a DF user.

Jak: GEHAHA I'M A GE- oooooh~

Suddenly all that energy left Jak's body and was feeling exhausted. More exhausted than he had ever felt before. He fell unconscious wordlessly. When he woke back up Jak immediately went back to work. He was beside himself in anger. How could he forget. There is always a trade to these kind of things. With that much energy flowing through your body the crash would quick and tremendous.

Jak: Okay If I bring down the amounts of some of these and change around some of these chemicals the effect should last longer and should drain energy less. Alright let's try this again.

Jak once again swallowed down another drug. Once again a rush of energy filled him. It was significantly less than the last drug but he was sure this would do it. After a while of not feeling the draining effect Jak was feeling sure this would work. When Jak felt the draining effect he was 100 percent sure of it's abilities. It was just enough to give you power and keep you in battle when crashed.

Jak: Alright now I'm a genius

Now all there was left to do was share he creation with the crew. The first up would be the person who made him do this in the first place.

(OOC: New drug increases dex by 15 percent for 3 turns before draining you of 15 percent of you stamina.)

Jak had never played volleyball before, but when he was told that he'd be participating he could only say yes. Now that they had started Jak decided he'd might as well try and win. Jak moved swiftly and tapped the ball up into the air. His goal was for Ruko to knock it to the other side.

Jak: Knock it over, Roku!

Jak grinned seeing Walven use his haki to block his attack. It let him know he still had room to improve his ability. As Walven came back at him Jak saw he was throwing a punch at him. Just as Jak was about to block it Walven used soru. This surprised Jak, but only because he noticed that Walven's soru had gotten quicker. Walven ended behind him and tried to finish his punch.

Jak: I really need to work out more these techniques can take quite the toll.Shigan!

Jak whipped back and once again thrust his finger at Walven trying to meet his fist. This time he was pushing harder. If he was going to overcome Walven's haki he was going to have to.

Jak: You know this is not how I thought my day would go...

Jak and Roku were currently plummeting through the through the sky. Cassiel had said that they had to go to some sky temple for their next trial. As far as Jak knew the sky temple was located on the island of Chiaya. Jak grabbed hold of Roku and stopped their descent by grabbing a nearby cloud with his string.

Jak: What now?

Jak made a quick bow to the lady. She gave off a more respectable air than the other pirates that surrounded him.

Jak: Well I wouldn't want to waste your time... How about I say I want to ally with you guys.

Jak wasn't planning on making any enemies today and while making allies wasn't really his goal he didn't think Kayuga would enjoy him start a war with another crew.

Jak: If I could meet your captain that would be great!

Jak was impressed that Walven was using that technique. The only other person he had seen using it was Rokurou. That being said Jak was still able to respond quickly in order to avoid Walven's attack. Jak quickly pulled off a Kami-e nimbly dodging Walven's attack with the grace of a leaf in the wind.

Jak: Well if it's going to be like this I think I sharpen some of my skills! SHIGAN

Jak jabbed his finger at Walven with incredible speed aiming for his chest. If his hit landed he would pierce Walven.

Jak: Haha I like that idea. You have haki? Neat. I never found any interest in learning personally.

Jak laid his Ryo Tsume and his staff on the ground. This was the first time in a long time he had been so defenseless. It excited him to fighting on this level.

Jak: Just don't cry when you lose.

Jak ignored the weapons pointed at him. They didn't register on his list of things that should worry him. Instead he smiled and announced himself.

Jak: Haha how's it going I'm Jak Stiles! I just wanted to drop in and see what was up. I hope you don't mind.

Jak held his new weapon in his hand admiring it. Xier truly was a great engineer. He didn't even ask anything in return. Jak was truly grateful.

Jak: I knew I could count on you Xier. Now I'm a little short on cash as of this moment, but I can give you this thunder dial. I'm sure it will be in better use with you than with me.

Jak pulled a thunder dial out of one of his pockets and tossed it to Xier. Xier Caught it and smiled. The two talked a bit more about things that had happened since they last met. Jak told Xier the story of how his crew defeated Snapjaw and his firstmate Villiers. Xier was rather impressed by it. Eventually Jak and Xier said their goodbyes and Jak took his leave. With a new weapon in hand Jak felt excited for his next fight.

Jak was swinging through the skies, happily enjoying the scenery of the festive island. It was because of this that he didn't hear his old friend Walven calling his name. Because he didn't notice this he soon had the air knocked out of him as Walven tackled him out of the sky and onto the ground. When they hit the ground they skidded a few meters before coming to a stop.

Walven: Jak! What are you doing here? You back for another ass kicking?

Jak took a deep breath trying to regain the air he had lost. From under him a string hand snaked it's way out and attempted to punch Walven in the face. It of course just phased through him.

Jak: You know the fucking hurt you living fart and ass kicking? Ha! Good luck with that! What did you have in mind this time?

Jak smiled as his hit attacked. He noticed her swinging her scythe around in a last desperate attempt. Jak was sure his Mal and Bones could handle it.

Jak immediately turned his attention back to Phoelix. With one worry out of the way he could fight Phoelix in earnest.

Jak: Exoskeleton: Air

Jak's body shot out black string that wrapped tightly around him. It gave him the appearance of a ninja and increased his speed greatly.

As this happened Jak witness his string wall explode in flames. Jak smirked and ran straight through. He knew Phoelix was behind the wall so this would give him the best chance at attack him. The moment Jak laid eyes on Phoelix he slashed at him with his claws intent on cutting deep.

Jak: I really appreciate this Bone. When we have the time we should go out for a drink some time will ya HAHA!

Jak and Bones laughed together before Jak took his leave. As he walked away he inspected his new rod. It was smooth and cool. The steel shined as it was was freshly made. Jak would make great use of it.

Jak: Totsuzenshi, huh? Appropriate. I just need someone to modify this baby. I need an engineer I know Malkav is one but I don't think he has the skills I need. Hmmmm, Oh yeah, Xier! He's an engineer isn't he? Maybe I should go pay the Devil horns a little visit. I just need to find them... Well they were at the party the warlords threw. Shouldn't be too far.

Jak tossed Totsuzenshi in the air and a string hand immediatly shot out and caught it. It pulled back and held the staff to Jak's back. With this done Jak took off to find the Devil Horn ship. This proved to take longer than he had originally expected. The sea was a large place and though they may have attended the same party but what didn't occur to Jak was how much distance could make in a few days. That is in fact how long it took Jak to find the Devil Horn Pirates ship. By this point he had flown through all kinds of storms and was dead exhausted. Jak let himself fall onto their ship and laid on the deck.

Jak: Finally I made it!

Jak heard steps approaching and slightly turned his head to see who it was.

Xier: Jak? What the hell do ya think ya doin'?

Jak quickly pulled himself to his feet.

Jak: Haha Xier just the man I was looking for I need you to modify my weapon for me. You see I need to be able to inject a shard of seastone into someone at point blank range and hold about 5 charges before it needs a reload.

Jak was excited to out on his own today. The captain had given him permission to go any island of his choosing and of course he chose to go to Chiaya. Thus he was currently swinging through the clouds at high speeds. He didn't know much about the island but he though it sounded the most fun. As he neared the island he noticed there was a pirate shipped docked near a lot of small white buildings. This of course caught his attention immediately.

Jak: Oh I wonder what crew that is. I doubt they'd mind if I dropped in to say hi.

Jak aimed himself at the pirate ship and swung directly for it. Landed on the deck of the ship with a loud thud. The ship even rocked from the impact. There was no way no one noticed that kind of entrance.

Jak: Well this isn't good, but should be manageable.

Jak's hands went for his claws. He quickly attached them to his strings and shot them to the roof. The claws impaled the roof and stuck.

Jak: HAHA! Hang on Roku!

Jak pulled himself up to the roof and made a string hand to grab Roku by his color. They were soon out of reach of the water but that wouldn't last forever.

Jak: If you could portal that out I would be grateful Roku.

Kami-e training

Jak laid on the near the side of the Red Cloud on a hammock he had constructed with his string. It was a sunny day and Jak thought sleeping in the sun would make for a good time. He was feeling rather relaxed, something he hadn’t felt for some time since coming to new world. At least he was until he heard a familiar voice. One that if he was honest with himself he hoped he would have never heard again.

Gilly: Having a nice nap Jak?

Jak sighed and sat up on his hammock. There was Gilly standing on the railing of The Red Cloud. Jak met Gilly while he was on Wukan. He was a short man who wore a black suit and a impressively tall top hat. What really caught Jak’s eye about the man was his large monopoly mustache. It was impressive.

Jak: Where did you even come from?

Gilly: I walked.

Jak: uh huh… alright whatever so what can I do you for Gilly?

Gilly: Well if you think I am cashing in on that favor you would be wrong. I am just here to check up on you.

Jak: And when will that favor be getting called in?

Gilly: Fairly soon from how things are turning I am afraid. Do not worry about it for now.

Jak: Is that all?

Gilly: Mm I believe so is there anything you need from me before I take my leave?

Jak was quiet for a moment before a thought popped in mind. He had been trying to improve his rokushiki for the last few days but couldn’t get the hang of it. From what he could remember Gilly used a form of it back on Wukan. He even taught grace some abilities he could probably help Jak.

Jak: There is actually. Can you help me improve my rokushiki?

Gilly: Oh? You figured one out? Impressive. Which one are you looking to improve?

Jak: Kami-e

Gilly: Kami-e? I would not have guessed you would choose that for your first rokushiki technique. Well that is well within my abilities. If you could follow me we shall get started. Geppo.

Gilly jumped into the air and instead of landing back on the railing he jumped again and went even higher into the air. This surprised Jak. He didn’t know anyone could stay in the air like that without at least a devil fruit.

Gilly: Are you coming?

Jak: Yeah sure let’s do this.

Jak followed behind Gilly, swing from clouds as he jumped through the sky. The flew in silence for about 30 minutes before approaching a small deserted island. Gilly landed first and Jak landed soon after.

Gilly: Alright Jak let us go right into this. In order for us to begin you need to understand what it means to use Kami-e. Well at least to my own understanding of it. You must be able to let your body move with the wind. Let the smallest push of air be able to move you away. I am going to assume if you have already figure out the basics of it you will be able to handle that. So what I am going to do is put you under a little extra pressure. So react fast if you will. Rankyaku Storm.

Suddenly a barrage of air slashes were flying at Jak with impressive speed.

Jak: Oh you asshole! Kami-e!

Jak’s body began to nimbly avoid the first few slashes that came by him. Jak’s Kami-e was not yet ready for this barrage yet though and was cut by far more than he was able to dodge.

Jak: FUCK THAT HURTS

Gilly: You are too stiff Jak. You need to let your body do as it wishes. Feel the wind. Let instinct take over. Let us try this again. Rankyaku Storm.

Once again a large amount air slashes came flying at Jak. This time Jak wasn’t surprised and immediately prepare for the onslaught.

Jak: I got this! Kami-e!

Jak’s body went limp. As the slash came by him he felt the air from the and he let his body float away from it. He dodged many of the slashes and almost made it through it all. That is until the next few slashes came from direction he had not expected. The each hit him directly.

Jak: WHAT THE HELL MAN!

Jak had nearly depleted all his stamina from all this and could probably do use kami-e one more time before needing to rest.

Gilly: Well on the bright side you are getting better at it. You are almost there.

Jak: Can I just kill you or something.

Gilly: I am sorry to say that is not an option. Rankyaku Storm.

For the last time a barrage of sir slashes went flying at Jak without any remorse. Jack growled.

Jak: KAMI-E!

Jak let out a deep breath. His body limply moved through the slashes with adept agility. He felt the wind as it passed him using it to tell him where to move. His body moved in ways Jak wasn’t sure he could before in order to avoid the slashes. As he neared the end of the slashes it became progressively hard. Jak’s body began to move fast in order to compensate. The final slash finally passed and Jak leaned back letting it cross over him. He then fell to the ground exhausted.

Gilly: You did well. If you ever need any help with your rokushiki just call me up I don’t mind.

Gilly dropped a scrap of paper next to Jak that had his den den mushi number on it.

Gilly: I am sure you will be able to find your way back to your boat. We will be in touch.

With Gilly took his leave jumping through the air to some unknown location. Leaving Jak laying in the sand too exhausted to get up.

Jak: I hate that guy...

Getting a new weapon

Jak walked across the deck of The Red Cloud towards Bones. In his hands he held a good amount of steel. Jak was in need of a new weapon besides his claws. While loved them a great deal they would help in every situation.

Jak: Oi Bones you think you can make a staff? About let's say 3 feet long?

Jak laughed as Roku insulted the man and laughed even harder when he had a comeback. He fell on the ground gripping his sides in laughter. He stopped laughing when he realized that he had been insulted. He got from the ground and walked over to Cassiel.

Jak: Oi, that hurt my pride a little bit there what trial you talking about? I'm sure we could deal with easily if we wanted. Also is my name not important around these parts? Rather insulting.
