Journey to One Piece

16. Practice

"This was so beautiful. I am dying. It was so good...." Luffy's eyes were shining like a car's headlights when he said that. And this was the same for both Sabo and Ace. They had just lived their lives as ninjas and now they could even feel the flow and presence of chakras in their own bodies. The only thing that changed were the eyes of Ace which had turned white now but as the system said. The white eyes could be easily retracted when required.

"Such low numbers. I guess being the owner of the system has its good sides too." Ken thought.

Ace, Sabo and Luffy were now looking as if Ken was a God. They lived an entire new life. They saw the world, learnt so much and now they were back. Though there was no psychological impact, all the three had a little change of temperament.

Ken already noticed that but didn't call it out as being mature at such a young age would only make them stronger and face the world.

"So you all three have lived a ninja life. How do you feel?" 

"Eh!!"

"Huh!!"

"You two have also been in the ninja world?" 

The three were taken aback by the fact that all 3 got the same world. Ken had said that it would be different worlds but it seemed like they got the same world in this case. Then Luffy said

"I got Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage. Hahahah.. What did you get Ace?" 

"I got Neji. I know you. You died by your own disciple. Hahaha.... Such an idiot." Ace laughed. While these two chatted Sabo clenched his teeth. He lived the life of a villain. He was infuriated. He saw the dark things Danzo did in his life. Kidnapping children for experiments, killing anyone that he thought would be an obstacle or future threat. 

He hated the character of Danzo but he was grateful too to get his powers. He vowed to himself that he would never go down the path of Danzo!!

"Oi Sabo, what character did you get?" Luffy asked as he was curious.

"I got Danzo." Sabo said timidly to Luffy. Luffy lived the life of Hiruzen. His rival in the ninja world. Luffy stiffened when he heard that Sabo got the powers of Danzo. Both had a good idea of how twisted Danzo was. Luffy himself wasn't exactly a huge fan of Hiruzen. Some of his policies were questionable for sure. There was a little gloomy atmosphere now knowing that Danzo and Hiruzen came to 2 of them. 

"It's fine. It's their world. Let me tell you what happened later. After Neji died..." Ken then proceeded to tell the complete story of Naruto. He could see the little sad mood of the three though they got new powers, so now Ken needed to tell about the happy ending in order to make them feel good. 

"... Now you three have chakras. A unique thing exclusive to only 3 of you in this world. But your character power is only about 15% on average. And this power isn't enough. You will have to work hard and get accustomed to your new powers. Luffy now you have all the ninjutsus. You can practice each and every one of them with high proficiency so I hope you will be able to complete it. Especially water, which is a very tough thing for you."

"Ace and Sabo. I wouldn't advise you but I hope you two will get accustomed to your new powers via practice." 

"But Ken, water is my weakness. I can't do anything in the water." Luffy protested. 

"You can't swim and sea water makes you feel weak. This can be easily overcome by practice and hard work. Though you will still not be able to swim but you can at least walk or run in water. That is enough. I want you to practise both ninjutsus and your own special moves related to rubber. I will personally help you. You are still so young and there is much to learn and gain." Ken said  

"Humph!! We also have lived a life. We aren't the same anymore." Ace said.

"That's good. Then act like one!!" 

"Yosh, from today onwards we will start the practice." Ace declared as he used his leg to jump on a branch of the tree. The first move he was going to try was sticking himself to a solid object. Using his feet to hang upside down. This was the first move that Ace needed to make sure that he knew. 

Seeing Ace already starting to practice, Luffy and Sabo too joined. Sabo fell the first time he tried but he was able to complete the second time. But Luffy was the one who suffered the most. It seemed like Luffy's synchronisation with Hiruzen would take quite a lot of time as it took a whole day to complete his practice and hang himself upside down.

By the evening Ace and Sabo were both able to complete the technique of walking on water. None of the three needed any kind of help in this regard because in their mind they had already completed this training long ago. 

But it was totally different when it came to reality. Knowing something and applying it in reality was a totally different ball game and that was the reason that even simple techniques were taking a lot of time for the three. Seeing the hard work also thought of helping. 

Helping the only way possible for these three!!! Food. Ken went and killed 2 big boars from the forest. Ken even went to Porchemy's hideout to see if he had died just like the original work. Under the gun of Bluejam and seeing more bloodstains than yesterday Ken was sure that Porchemy was already in the underworld. 

After the practice Ken killed one average sized bear to take home in order to eat as he 'promised' Dadan. Luffy and the trio were still excited as all the three were jumping around on tree branches in order to reach Dadan's home. It was much faster and more amazing than just walking.
