Chapter 8: New power
„I will eat it!"
Ezio has decided.
[In the worst case, I will die. When you die once, your mentality changes a little. Maybe you don't fear death as much or you think when you're dead you will move to another world. Maybe in the next world I'm a shinobi, who knows? I think this whole dying and reincarnating thing made me a little crazy.]
Ezios mother came to his side and patted his head. He was shocked. This was the first time his mother showed affection.
„M-Mom?"
He was so touched, he jumped to his mother and wanted to take her in his arms. But what he got was a painful fist on his head.
„Don't have illusions, brat. You have to be strong enough to take your mother in your arms, or you will end like this useless father of yours"
Ezio was struck by fear. His grandfather told him that she only made the deed with his father because she wanted that the Blackflame family had a heir. The old man even told him that his father was one of the strongest celestial dragons, but he didn't survive the private time in bed with his mother. The old man had a lot of trouble when a celestial dragon died in this tragic event.
Ezio took the fruit and ate it.
After he ate it nothing happened. He looked at his grandfather with a questioning gaze.
„What the hell, old fox? I'm feeling fine!"
„Well, yes", he answered and smiled.
„OLD MAN!"
Ezio was furious and attacked his old man with all he got. He couldn't hit him even once. Damn, this crazy family isn't easy to handle.
„Well, I'm surprised, too. What is your power?"
Ezio looked at his hand and felt a strange power in his whole body. Then his hand turned into black fire and shocked Ezio. This is the power of a logia fruit. His whole body was a black flame. This explained the name of his family.
„Hahaha! It is the black flame, the same ability our ancestor had!"
But after several seconds Ezio felt massive pain in his whole body. Blood came out of his eyes, like when a user of the Uchiha clan would use the mangekyo sharingan. His hands that were black flames turned back to normal and he fell to the ground. He rolled up and down on the ground because of the massive pain. Never did he feel so much pain. It took him half an hour before the pain faded but he still lay on the ground and couldn't move more than his mouth.
„Old man, what the hell is this?"
„This is the first power and it is the power of logia. This is Amaterasu. Another name is the Nirvana Flame. You are now a black flame that can burn everything in this world. But it is not easy to use this power. If your use it too much, it can kill you. You have to train to use even a little bit of that black flame. Now you are too weak. Just this little flame on your hand and your are in this condition. That is the price for your power, boy"
Ezio did not now wether he should laugh or cry. Is he an Uchiha now? This flame in form of a logia fruit is truly overpowered. Poor Ace, his flame in comparison is really weak. The problem was that Ace could destroy a whole nation in his fire, Ezio used a little flame and felt like dying. He knew the future would be troublesome and his training would bring him a lot of pain.
Ezio recovered after several hours. He was still in the treasure room with his old man and then he thought about the previous conversation with his grandfather.
„Hold on, old man. What was that about the name of my mother? Blackflame D. Lucy? Where the hell comes the D from?"
„Of course it's the will of the devil. Our family had it always in our name. My name is Blackflame D. Ruben, and yours is Blackflame D. Ezio"
„What? But we are celestial dragons! The will of the devil is our natural enemy, or not?"
„You know a lot for a brat in your age. Of course nobody knows that we have the D in our name"
The old man grinned like a cunning fox. After several minutes Ezio had the same smile on his face.
„So the devil lives in the heavens of the gods and the gods are completely clueless? Hahaha, that is truly funny. When I compare our family with all the poor D's that are hunted by the world, we Blackflames are truly like a cunning devil!"
Both of them laughed loud and even Lucy had to smile. There were no more words needed because they all knew what this meant.
„This is the reason why you are so different. Now it makes sense"
The old men nodded and gave Ezio a ring with a flame engraved on it.
„Boy, this is a spatial ring, in this you can store your belongings. If the people see that you have all those devil fruits on your ship, even the four emperors would hunt you down to the end of this world. This is a one of a kind treasure, so don't lose it. By the way, I made a ship for your trip. It even has the newest technology of the marines, so you can pass the calm belt and bring these two girls to their home. Ah, I should tell you, this black scythe I gave you in the past is really special. It's the weapon of our first ancestor and it can be used with the black flames without being burned to ashes. Don't lose this weapon, or this old man will hunt you down!"
Ezio smiled. It was truly easier as a celestial dragon. He stood slowly up. His hole body was full of pain but he walked to his old man and took him in his arms.
„Grandfather, thank you for everything. When I come back, the whole world will know the name of the Blackflame"
„Brat, it's rare that you call your old man grandfather"
Both of them had tears in their eyes. They knew they wouldn't see each other for a very long time. Ezio really loved this grandfather of his. He was a good guy and loved his grandson more than everything. For Ezio he was like his first father because even in his past life he didn't had a father.
