[I'm thinking about changing this story from a third-person view to a first-person view. Let me know if you prefer the third-person or not. Thanks.]
*Energy-Energy Devil fruit is a parameica devil fruit. The user becomes an energy-energy man which allows user can see the energy levels in all life forms and manipulate the energy inside of him. This means he can amplify his strength or the strength of other living things such as plant life. The user can also manipulate the energy and give it form like an energy sword. Although he becomes an energy-energy man. (Logia users like magma and Ice attacks can't be absorbed. Lightning and Light attacks can be absorbed, though it is converted to energy and does not affect him.) The major drawbacks of this devil fruit is that the energy stored inside his body is limited to the user's physical strength/stamina.*
[One year after since eating the devil fruit]
Sitting around a big square desk was Iroh and Michael as a serious mood was between them, " Father, I would like to leave the kingdom and see what else there is in this world. The sort of power that people possess. The types of people there are as well as their ideologies. I want to do something more."
Iroh stared straight into my eyes, trying his best to gauge my feelings and thoughts. For the past year, I have been training my physical strength and honing my new powers. I feel like I have reached my limit here and wanted to see what other kind of powers existed out there.
After a brief moment of silence between my father and I, he finally gave a sigh and responded, " I see. Over the past year you have surpassed my strength easily. I can feel confident enough for you to leave this kingdom and venture out to the unknown world. For 16 years have I watched you grow up without your mother. I only hope that you don't lose your way and not use your powers for evil purposes."
Getting to one knee, showing him the best of the respect possible I responded with a tearful, " I know how much you have done for me father. I can't thank you enough for the love you have given me even though I don't have a mother."
Iroh " When will you be leaving."
" Tomorrow. I will first inform the King about my future absence and then will soon depart."
Iroh sighed again at the sad thought of me departing soon, " I understand. Rest well son, I will be there to send you off."
Laying on my bed, I moved side to side unable to fall asleep. I couldn't help it, I was almost trembling with excitement about traveling away from the kingdom. For 16 years, I have lived in the kingdom and in the sky. The sky is high and wide but there are kingdoms small and large scattered everywhere.
The next morning came by quickly as I gathered my things and made sure I was prepared for the incoming adventure. I quickly head to the throne room to talk to the King about my departure.
Once arriving I took to one knee and reported, " My King and Queen, I'm sure my father had already formed you of my departure. I have come to say my goodbyes and inform you that I plan to leave."
King Onano " Iroh did indeed inform me. Things have been peaceful between us and Noira, I assume is because you have spared that young man Theo. Feel free to back and relax if you ever find it too hard out there."
" I can't thank you enough for giving me the opportunity to obtain the power that I have now."
King Onano simply nodded, " You deserve it. Your father had done what you have at your age. Go and gain knowledge about the world you wish to seek and come and tell us stories when you come back. We'll always be waiting here."
Standing up, I bowed once more and then left the throne room. I reached the end of the Kingdom about half an hour later, and saw my father standing there with his hands behind his back, looking out into the horizon.
Iroh " Do you have any plan on where to start?"
Scratching my head because I really had no clue. I was going to just pick a direction and fly there until I reach another land. " No not really father."
Iroh " A long time ago, I met a sky knight named Gan Fall. Their society is a bit different from ours. Instead of calling their leader a King like ours, they called themselves God."
" God? How arrogant. "
Iroh " Indeed, however, at the time I met Gan Fall he was a young warrior and was busy trying to come up with ways to settle things peacefully with some of the people around his land. I don't know what he is doing now but, I think that you should go see him and talk to him. His land gets a lot of visitors from the blue sea down below unlike us. He could probably tell you more about the world than I can as I have only a few of them, but that was a long time ago."
" I understand, thank you father."
Iroh " Just keep heading east and you should civilization in about half a month. There are several clouds in the sky but few that are stable and can support a civilization."
" I understand. Thank you father. I'll be on my way now."
Taking off, I headed east like my father had talked about. If it was when my father was young then it must be over twenty years ago, and must look pretty old by now. Hopefully he is still alive.
Besides flying for the pass few days, I continue to develop and explore my powers and surroundings. I've noticed that I can fly with great speed for days without end. Even at this moment, I have not rested and I feel as though I have limitless energy. Of course this is just flying and I have not really used my devil fruit powers to strengthen myself to fly faster but comparing to how it was before I had consumed my devil fruit, my strengthen as increased by a lot to the point that the old me would be like a child to me.
Anyways, I continue to fly towards the direction my father had sent me and I began to see signs of civilization.
At first I was happy to see something other than endless clouds but after taking a better look at things, I can feel and sense violent clashes of fighting. Once I had reached the edge of the found civilization, I closed my eyes and sense the surroundings with my observation haki. Frowning from what I feel. I feel endless amounts of killing intent all over. Intents fighting and people suffering. Voices fading all throughout this particular land.
As I continue to scan the area around me, I quickly noticed a couple stronger energies which prompts me to fly towards this area to see what is going on and if I can do anything to help.
I quickly picked up my speed and arrived at scene where there was a throne where an old man almost half beaten to death and several other people dressed in some kind of uniform laying on the ground either too injured to move or possibly dead.
I quickly observed the scene and saw a rather tall man with long earlobes hanging and a bandana wrapped on his head laughing disgustingly while his foot was on the old man's chest.
Already seeing this scene I can see where or from whom the ill intent came from as I looked at him and his fellow followers.
As I observed them, they also observed me. The taller man with his foot on the old man looked at and looked at me with ill intent and said, " Boy, you don't look like you're from around here. Do you have some business here? Are you here to claim vearth?"
Vearth? What the heck was that. is it something precious? However, I quickly ignored his question and continued to look at the old man that was struggling to stay conscious.
I called over to him, "Old man, are you the one called Gan Fall? The God of this land?"
The old man nodded with a sad smile at the situation at hand, after all he was asked if he was the God of this land but here he was lying on the ground beaten.
I smiled at his nod, " I am Michael, son of iroh. I left home, wanting to know what is out there in this world. My father told you that I can ask you about some of those things."
Gan Fall, " Iroh huh, that old friend of mine. I would love to tell you but as you can see the situation right now is the not the best. I fear that I may not be able to help you young man."
???" HAHAHA That's right. I am the God of this land now. Enel. Since you've just arrived, I will let you join my army. You seem strong for a young man like yourself. Unless you wish to die with this old fool."
As I looked at this person who called himself God and Enel. I can see strange energy coursing through him. It was bright, wild, and terrifyingly strong. However, this kind of power coursing through him strangely did not scare me. Although, it looks really strong and limitless, for some reason it only looks like a big bundle of food to me. As if, I have found the ultimate power source that I can consume endlessly.
" Enel is it? You seem quite strong huh. You must've eaten a devil fruit too."
Enel frowned seeing that I still have not surrendered under her rule. " Indeed, I have been gifted by the very Gods themselves and have gained their strength. I hate the rumble rumble devil fruit, granting me the power and body of lightning. This power has no equal. HAHAHAHA."
Seeing him laugh in full confidence and arrogance, I smile in return. " What a pity that you've met me. I may have been the worse and only natural enemy you will ever know."
Enel slowly becoming more and more angry at the fact that I did not show an ounce of fear hearing that he has the power of lighting.
Enel " what do you mean?"
"well why don't you come and find out Enel."
Enel " It's God Enel to you!"
