Title: World's Greatest Swordsman...
….
When Naruto says that he is from the Grand Line, everyone looks at him with surprised looks and shock on their faces. They didn’t know what to say to this. They just heard that someone like Don Krieg was absolutely destroyed by someone like Hawkeye. But that is when everyone looked at Naruto even more strangely, he also didn’t seem like the type who would lie as he also didn’t even seem surprised that one man defeated a fleet with 50 ships and 5000 men. But what was currently on everyone’s mind was…
‘Who the hell is Naruto’s father?!?!’
Everyone wanted to know that and Gin beat everyone to the punch by asking first. “Naruto… who is your father?”
Gin, a man who had been broken by the Grand Line and looking at Mihawk wanted to at least know the name of a man greater than that. His mind never even had the thought that Naruto might be lying.
Naruto smiles at that. “Oh, my dad is-”
He was about to say more but Dead Cat jumped up and scratched Naruto’s eyes and face with a stray cat growl.
“AH! You stupid cat, you are scratching my eyes!” Yells Naruto in pain as he tries to pull away from the cat from him. Dead Cat didn’t say anything and acted like a normal cat by scratching Naruto and holding onto his hair with her teeth.
Everyone just looks at this strangely, not knowing what to even say on this occasion. They didn’t even question why a seemingly ‘normal’ black cat would interfere just when Naruto was about to spill some big secret. But at this moment suddenly…
BOOOOOM!!!
A loud explosion sings about and some yells are heard on the outside coming from Krieg’s men. “CAPTAIN!!!! OUR SHIP HAS BEEN CUT”
The cooks and even Luffy, Naruto, Zoro, and Usopp go outside and see the giant galleon that Krieg came in have been cut in two. Usopp and the others look for their ship but they can’t find it.
“Sh*t, did the ship sink?” Questions Zoro as he sees the giant galleon start sinking and creating giant waves.
Zeff sees this and orders out loud. “Put down the anchor or this ship is gonna be dragged under.”
The waves created were gigantic like a tsunami. But as it settles down Naruto looks towards the horizon and sees the ship. “Oy! Luffy isn’t that the Going Mery?”
“AHHHHH OUR SHIP!!!” Yells Luffy out loud panicked. Zoro and Usopp seemed unsure of what to do. That is when Dead Cat lands on top of Luffy’s head and narrows its eyes.
“I can see that girl Nami on the ship. Seems like she stole it.” Says Dead Cat with a calm voice while Zoro is blaming himself for letting his guard down and Usopp is blaming Nami. Naruto and Luffy have a calm look on their faces. Dead Cat on the other hand just looks at them like they are all fools. “Well, she did say that she used to steal from pirates and it seems like she still does too.”
Naruto then grabs Dead Cat by the fur on his back and looks at him with an annoyed face. “Why are so smug? You are just a cat, admit it, you got fooled by her too.”
“No, I actually saw this coming from a mile away.” Answers the cat with a nonchalant look on his face. “I am not a loser like you guys.”
Naruto narrows his eyes again. “I am gonna eat you one day you stupid cat… also don’t even know where she is going. Don’t make yourself look cool by making it seem like it was all part of your plan.”
“But it was.” Says the cat. Zoro also heard the cat say that and it looked at the cat curiously, the cat notices this and elaborates. “It seems like she still had some problems to take care of. Also, she is going east so it would be safe to Cocoyasi Island.”
Dead Cat had the whole map of East Blue memorized so he knows where the general direction of places is. Also, Naruto can’t navigate sh*t, so the cat did all of the navigating and route planning while Naruto did the brawn work.
“I want her to be our navigator no matter what!” Says Luffy as he looks at the rest of his crew.
“Don’t worry Luffy, I will finish this fight quickly, and then we can chase after her.” Says Naruto and that is when some members of the Krieg Pirates call out.
“Don Krieg! It's him! The one who destroyed our fleet.”
“He has followed us all the way here!”
“He has come to kill us!”
Zoro has a shocked look on his face. He can’t believe that he will meet the world’s greatest swordsman so soon. “I -I can’t believe it… it that… the Hawk Eyed man…”
…
Don Krieg on the other hand is covered in cold sweat as he looks at Hawkeye, his worst nightmare just appeared in front of him. “Damn bastard…”
“W -We are done…” Says one of Don Krieg’s men, his face full of terror. He couldn’t believe it that they had met someone like Hawkeye like this. “Damn it! What the hell did we do to you!?!?! Why are you following us all the way here!”
Hawkeye doesn't even look at the man who asked him that and he answers simply by casually saying. “Just to kill some time…”
“That’s bullshit!” Yells Krieg’s man out loudly as he pulls out two double-barrel pistols and shoots.
Pow! Pow!...
Before anyone of them can even see anything Hawkeye pulls his giant sword out and uses the tip of the sword to redirect the bullet’s trajectory.
Zoro sees this and he has a calm look on his face as he decides to address Mihawk. “I have never seen such graceful movements.”
“A sword without grace is no strong sword at all.” Answers Mihawk, his face is still calm as he puts his giant on his back.
“Did you cut this ship as well with that sword?’ Asks Zoro, he wants to know for sure.
“Yes, indeed.” Says Mihawk.
“I see… then I would like to challenge you into a duel for the turtle of the World’s Strongest Swordsman.” Concludes Zoro, he knows that in no way can he beat a man like Mihawk at the moment. But he feels that if he didn’t challenge him now then he will be breaking his promise to Kuina and never again would he have the courage to challenge Mihawk.
…
Mihawk accepts the challenge and Naruto frowns at this, he knows just how much the difference can be between someone like Zoro and someone like Mihawk. Out of all the current Shichibukai Mihawk is the strongest and even his father respects Mihawk and wouldn’t cross him needlessly. Naruto gets ready to use <Soru> at any moment and go save Zoro.
But Luffy notices this and puts a hand on Naruto’s shoulder. “Naruto… let Zoro fight his own battles. It’s his dream to become the world’s best swordsman. He is our Nakama so we can’t stop him from that.”
Nauto sighs a little and nods. He knows that no matter what Mihawk will not kill Zoro if he mentions his father’s name to threaten him. But at the same time, he knows that if he does something like that, then his adventure will be over as the World Government will hunt him down.
….
As Zoro’s fight with Mihawk goes along, Zoro is defeated by Mihawk using a small dagger. But in the end, Mihawk uses his swerve as he is impressed by Zoro and him saying that wounds on the back are a swordsman’s shame and…
Fwish!
He cuts Zoro from his collar bone to his midsection. Naruto has an angry look on his face as he uses <Soru> and appears behind Mihawk one of his arms extending towards him.
‘With my Zipper-Zipper Fruit, I can destroy his sword and paralyze his body by separating his head.’ Thinks Naruto but that is when…
Fwish!
An arm flies in the air…
“Huh?” Wonders Naruto as he confusingly looks at his bleeding stump...
