Chapitre 4: Party's Bar
It took Jhin a full 3 hours to completely decide and customize his ship. Since he does't even know how to sail a boat, let alone a ship, Jhin's plan was to learn from Buggy until they reach their destination.
As for Buggy, the internal scheming master, he was of course planning on killing the guy or just let it be.
Knowing Buggy's attitude, Jhin already monitored his movements from the beginning. If he made a move, Jhin will teach him a lesson. If he will not, Jhin planned to recruit him. Although he Knew Buggy would refuse, who knows, maybe he will not.
...
"Yosh! Today, were setting sail to Dawn island." shouted Buggy with his raspy voice. "We're gonna meet someone important there." He was embarrassed to say the truth to his crew as they might make fun of him. And of course, Jhin would also not say it. It was a basic respect.
"Dawn island?!" the crew simultaneously said with doubtful voice.
"What?! There a problem?... Good! Set sail!" he intimidated them, as usual.
...
It has been nearly a weak since the journey started and they needed to gather supplies. According to the map he got from Buggy, Jhin was apparently on a nearly uninhabited large island. It was clear as no one even bothered to name it. Although it was large, it was very dangerous place for normal people to live in.
Apparently, there was only a small town where some shipwrecked pirates would stop and repair. As for where his grandpa stayed in, Jhin was sure that it was safe. So he did not need to worry about him. And as they Journeyed, they system also keeps generating maps.
Jhin also learned a lot from this journey. Like how to steer a ship, how to use the compass, how to pass certain types of storms and many more. Since they needed to restock, Of course they would also need to stop at a trade town or just some random island they could 'buy' what they need.
"What place is this called, Buggy?" asked Jhin.
"I don't know either. But according to the map, it is just a small island. Were just checking if there is a town here." explain Buggy while using his single binocular to look. Of course he was just lying. As a pirate in east blue, he already Knew what the town is called. It was Orange Town, he just did not want Jhin to know more.
"Senchou! I see something! 11 o'clock!" informed a member. As a member of the Buggy pirates, of course they would know how to back him up. So they acted like they did not know.
"Good Job..." said Buggy in return and steered the wheel. Minutes later, the ship arrived at a small dock.
"Go 'buy' what we need! Return immediately!" commanded Buggy. 'If this boy was not here...' The town would have been attacked if it wasn't for Jhin. Jhin also just waited and only sat at the bow.
He was thinking that since he was going to become a pirate, why bother. It's not like the island would sink anyway.
...
After waiting nearly an Hour, the crew finally returned carrying barrels and some sacks. The Journey again commenced.
...
Two weeks later...
Big Top, buggy's ship, docked in front of a town called Fuusha Village.
"Hurry up and get off." said Buggy with his raspy voice.
"Mmh.. Thank you, Buggy!" Jhin said and Jumped on the land. "See you on the see, Buggy... hahaha!" Jhin laughed and waved at Buggy. Buggy already started commanding.. a while later, they left. Jhin did not bother asking Buggy to be one of his crew. He knew that he would refuse.
When Jhin looked towards the Village, he was immediately surprised. A village full of windmills, the Fuusha Village. Seeing it in real life made Jhin want to cry. He already knew that the mountain behind the village was called Mt. Colubo. The place where Luffy and Ace is being raised.
"Now, let's go take a look at Makino's Bar." said Jhin with a wide smile. He walked past many windmills... windmills... As he walked pas a house, Jhin could hear thunderous laughs in the distance. Target located!
Jhin went to wards the 'door' opened it and entered. The people inside just kept drinking and id not even notice him. He went to the counter where a beautiful bartender is cleaning some cups and sat down on a vacant seat. Jhin already knew who she was, her name is Makino.
Makino was a young woman is a young woman with brown eyes and green hair that goes up to just above her shoulders. She also had a yellow bandana around her head.
"Give me a bottle of your best sake, please." asked Jhin with a slight smile. As a previous otaku, Jhin never drunk alcohol before. He was just acting cool.
"Coming, wait a little while." Makino said gently. Although Jhin was handsome, she did not seem to be bothered by it and just smiled a little.
"You must be new here, I have not seen you before." Makino initiated a conversation. "Here, Our bar's best one." she passed a bottle and a cup to Jhin.
"Thanks... Yeah, I just reached here earlier from a pirate ship." answered Jhin. He took the cup, opened the bottle, poured some to the cup and tried a sip while pretending to be some kind of sommelier. After confirming it isn't too bitter, he down the cup.
Makino tried to hide it be Jhin still noticed her pretending to cover her mouth. It made Jhin blush a little. What do you expect, he never drunk alcohol before.
"That bottle is on me, since it is your first time here. By the way, my name is Makino." Makino offered. She knew from his actions earlier that it was his first time drinking, which made her giggle a little.
"Jhin, nice to meet you, young lady." he also introduced himself.
Of course Jhin did not refuse. The crew from Buggy Pirates drank every night, but he was still hesitating if he will join or not. In the end, he still did not. He decided that his first alcohol would be at Makino's bar.
"Thanks... Is there a better sake in your stocks, if not, then I will take 3 bottles of this kind. Something like imported sake..?" Since he was going to visit someone, of course he would need to bring something that will prove his sincerity.
"You have good luck, we just received some imported ale two days ago. It should be good." said Makino. She looked at him again but kept quite.
"Then I would like to get three of it."
"Okay. Wait moment."
...
"Thanks for the sake. I'll come again." Jhin said to Makino with a smile. He took the Three bottles of sake and strode towards the door.
"Mmm.." Makino also smiled back.
When he finally got out, the bottles of ale disappeared, stored inside the Inventory.
...
"Mmhh? They are watching me already?" thought Jhin when he sensed 3 people spying on him. They were on top of the trees. If it were ordinary people, they would not be able to notice them unless the made a mistake. But it was Jhin, someone who has a strong Haki. Still, he let them be. It is also a sign of sincerity.
Moments later, he sensed 1 of them deviate from his path. Jhin figured he was going to report. So he locked on to that man.
And since Jhin did not know where the hideout of Dadan family is located, why not let them lead the way. As his Observation Haki is already level 4, his range of tracking is already so wide, it reached over 10,000 meters.
On top of a tree, a shadow was hiding. His face was covered with white cloth that only his eyes could be seen. But from his eyes, wariness and caution could be seen as he stared at the figure 20 meters away from him.
His eyes squinted when he saw that the figure ahead stopped. 'Did he notice us?' the man thought and held the blade on his hands tighter. He Shifted his head to look at another shadow on a branch of another tree. The other man seems to notice his gaze and turned his head and looked at each other eye to eye... nod...
They simultaneously nodded in understanding. They were ready to attack when they heard a voice talk in front.
"Don't worry, I'm not here to cause trouble." Jhin's plan was supposed to follow the first man but it seems that they intent to attack. It would be easy knocking them off but he knew that it would be a wrong move. But seeing that they intended to attack, might as well do it.
"I know you're there, show yourselves." He shouted again.
After several seconds of silence, the two finally showed themselves.
"Who are you?!"
"What is your purpose here?!"
They both asked with a shout, intending to intimidate Jhin.
"Ah, I am Jhin. I heard that the mighty Curly Dadan and her crew lives here. I came here to see her, I have some business to offer to her." answered Jhin.
"Curly Dadan? I have never heard of her. Go back where you come from, or you won't get a chance later!" said the one on the right with a punky voice.
"It is bad denying the name of your voice! State your name, when I meet her later, I will tell her that you do not acknowledge her as your boss! What do you say?" said Jhin slyly. Playing trickery with me? That's funny.
"What did you say?! Say that again, and I'll cut you tongue!" the man on the left seems to have a bad temper. While the other was not easy to be angered.
"Where did you hear that she's staying here?" the other asked with a cold voice.
"I heard it from a reliable source--" He released hi Conqueror's haki and...
Thud!
Thud!
Both of them collapsed. Jhin also vanished from his spot...
