One piece: Into the new world.

After all the crazy things that happened in just a single day, it really made me see the level of adversity that I would have to overcome in order to reach the peak of this world. 

A mere buster call had nearly wiped me and my families presence away from the world. While that sounds like a lot, you have to remember that Garp had spared us and that in a real world scenario that would never happen.

Realizing how weak I and my family was, I decided that I would train like there was no tomorrow from the day I could walk, to the day I died.

As I was held in my new fathers arms I looked into the horizon and saw a mysterious silhouette of a man walking away from me with a bisento in his hands. Before it dissipated the figure looked back at me, then turned to ash and disappeared.

"GOOD, NOW USE BETTER FORM WHEN YOU PENETRATE"

In the middle of a small clearing in a sprawling forest filled with trees, a young boy about 12 feet tall holding a giant iron bisento was stabbing what seemed to be a iron block about 9 feet tall by 9 feet wide. 

"NOW SWITCH TO SLASHES"

the boy while in the middle of piercing the metallic cube, switched to a slash in the middle of his action beautifully switching mid strike into a powerful slash that created a gust of wind in all directions that could uproot multiple buildings in one swing. 

His father or also known as his teacher was standing behind him watching him strike the cube with unparalleled strength.

'His strength is extraordinary, in pure physical power he is leagues ahead of myself and everyone in the happo navy, his skill with the Bisento is nothing I've ever seen before. He's like a natural born monster.'

'At just 8 years old he could probably decimate the entirety of the west blue. I wouldn't be surprised if he could go to the grand line or new world and become a top tier pirate.'

While Don Chinjao was glaz... complimenting his son, he saw that the weapon in his hands was about to snap in half.

"Alright that's enough... Stop holding back use all your strength and break that cube in half with one swing."

He noticed the small smirk on the boy's face as he changed his grip on his bisento, his muscles visibly bulging as the handle of the Bisento got crushed under his vice grip. He changed his stance as it resembled a powerful pirate who also wields a Bisento.

He swung with all his might as the blade of his Bisento collided with the cube and sliced through it like butter, as his Bisento cleanly went through the other side of the cube, as he did so an air slash created by the pressure of his cleave continued forward destroying all the trees and rocks in its path continuing forward for at least 500 meters before coming to a stop.

Don Chinjao had long gotten used to his son's monstrous power and wasn't fazed in the slightest when he displayed this much power at a young age.

"Good job son, I'm proud of how far you've come."

"Now that I've deemed you strong enough to become a top tier pirate in the new world, I'll give you a decision."

Noticing the seriousness in his fathers eyes, Kurihana focused on his fathers words carefully.

"You can either create your own pirate crew right now and set sail, or you can come along with my crew, gain some experience and decide whether to leave or stay later."

Kurihana looked surprised at the answers as he didn't expect that his father would just give him the choice up front.

On one hand he had learned everything his father could teach him. Although he hadn't unlocked Haki yet, his father had taught him very effective training methods to unlock and strengthen all 3 types of Haki.

But on the other hand he had come to love his father as his own as he had shown him nothing but the upmost love, though he was a strict trainer. He didn't want to just abandon him to create his own crew. But the prospect of having a bounty and becoming renowned resonated with his soul.

"I've come to a decision, I'll stay with your crew for a few years. But I'll later create my own crew. I hope you can respect my decision."

As he finished speaking, he locked eyes with Don Chinjao, as they stared at each other for a few seconds. The silence was broken by a loud and sudden burst of laughter.

"YAHAHAHA, I wouldn't expect anything less from my son, especially as your a Conqueror born to be the emperor of the sea."

As he finished speaking he reached his hand out to pat his sons head as they walked back to their cabin to pack their things and head out to sea and become pirates.

-Time Skip-

It's been a few months since the Happo Navy set out from the island, they hadn't yet left the west blue as they wanted to get their young master some fighting experience. To do so they started hunting other 'powerful' pirate groups that were in the area and having Kurihana fight the entire crew to the death.

Of course it wasn't fair... to the other pirate crews as Kurihana was a walking calamity, his skin was completely bullet proof and swords and axes broke when they struck him. The only way someone could harm him was if they used Haki and even then he was still almost invulnerable. 

One time they stumbled upon a pirate crew that was stronger than average in the west blue, all of them had managed to learn Armament haki at the least, with only a few having observation as they weren't patient enough to learn it all the way.

Kurihana fought the entire crew alone and even with powerful Armament, they couldn't pierce his skin. The only thing the Haki did was make sure their weapon didn't break. 

The only injury he received was a singular scratch that he received when fighting their Captain who had a ancient Zoan model Velociraptor. He used every last ounce of strength and made a cut smaller than a papercut.

It instantly regenerated.

Since then he hadn't been injured a single time, even when fighters aimed for vital organs or his eyes.

Since he had no more challenge in the west blue, he decided to leave and head to the New World. But before he did so he decided to pick up a crew member that would be very important for his rise into an emperor.

On the deck of their ship, he walked up the stairs from his room on the bottom of the ship to the captains quarters.

Opening the door he saw his father sitting at a desk looking at a newspaper and some sheets of paper.

"Father... Where are we heading now? Any specific place?"

"Now that I think about it, we were just about ready to head to reverse mountain, why?"

After thinking for a bit, his eyes brightened up and he spoke with clarity.

"Let's head to Ohara, I've always wanted to visit the grand library there, and see the Archeologists." 

"Hmmmm, alright we can head there before we go to reverse mountain."

His father left the room and told the navigators where they were heading as he walked towards the kitchen and asked the chefs when dinner was going to be done.

Seeing his father leave, he looked at his desk and saw the pieces of paper hastily hidden underneath the newspaper. 

It seemed to be a singular slip of paper about the size of a singular page of a normal newspaper.

It had a picture of Kurihana on it with the words Capture Alive on it. On the bottom of the paper was a string of numbers. 

His bounty was 100 million berries.

Seeing that his bounty paper said Capture Alive it seemed that the marines/World Government had noticed his special physique.

"Oh well, fuck it we ball!" 

He smirked while whispering it to himself.
