《Quicksword Bob》Chapter 32 - The Blood Moon Rises
Advertisement
Bob spent a few days on the ship as he headed towards Loguetown. He made sure they had everything they needed to head out.
The ship had some new faces onboard, they were extra bodies for the new ships that John and Ron would buy. Those two didn't know how to steer and man a ship, but there were others that did.
John was equipped with Amane and he thanked Bob for the gift. It was the best sword he ever touched, he promised he wouldn't lose it.
Once he got it, the first thing he did was challenge Bob to a duel.
Bob ended up winning, but he told John he could see a huge improvement from when they first started to spar.
It reminded Bob of when he was sparring with Luffy. At that time, all Bobs starts were 5, he couldn't do much and even when he trained hard his stats never went up. Not to mention he couldn't use any skills.
Luffy had a devil fruit, Bob couldn't help but be weak at that time. However, now things were different. His stats were higher now, and he could use skills.
With John being a future swordsman to look out for, he figured he'd eventually have a match with Zoro. Zoro probably would win, but who knows, only time could tell.
As for Ron, he was equipped with his Dragunov sniper rifle, a normal pistol and two daggers. The sniper was for him to kill his targets at long range, while the pistol was for close to mid range. As for the daggers, they were for him in case he was forced into melee combat.
Everyone else was equipped with basic items, but things would change once they reached Loguetown.
It was weird, in all the time he's been training his armament haki, he's only managed to cover his finger. His end goal was to be able to have Black Death covered in it, but that felt like a long time from now.

His talent must not be good or something, or he wasn't cut out for armament haki.
Bob was thinking about taking a break from it to see if he could learn observation haki easier, but once he saw his small progress a new spark was ignited inside him.
Ron and John had a better time than him with their haki. He didn't even want to be compared to those two.
He taught them the methods, but they already surpassed him in these last few weeks.
Bob sighed.
Their ship eventually reached Loguetown, it was a main point of interest for all pirates. They had to come here to resupply if they wanted to head out into the grandline.
As their ship docked, Bob looked around.
He could see a few pirate ships, but he didn't see the Going Merry that Luffy had.
"If i'm going by story arcs, guess he should be in the middle of Whisky Peak arc."
Bob said softly.
"Whose in the middle of Whiskey Peak arc?"
Luna asked Bob.
"Oh, no one just a friend."
"Is he part of your organization?"
"No, he's a pirate. He said his goal is to become the king of the pirates."
Luna laughed.
"He's dreaming big. Do you think he'll accomplish that goal?"
Bob shook his head.
"Now? No. In the future? Maybe. The world is large, and filled with strong people. If he wants to reach the top, he'll need to get past them."
Luna agreed with Bob.
"What do you plan on doing, if you meet him in the future?"
Bob laughed.
"Oh, im going to have a rematch."
Luna tilted her head in confusion.
"So… you're saying you lost? But you're so strong!"
"Like I said, the world is filled with strong people. Besides, he only beat me when we were younger."
"I'd like to meet this friend of yours. I'm sure he'll have stories to tell."

Bob didn't say anything else, but looked out at the sea for a moment.
"Alright, enough of that. Where's John and Ron?"
Luna pointed over to John and Ron who were both organizing their groups.
Bob nodded.
He went over to them.
"Before you get off and go your own way, I want to give each of you 50 million beli. It's a starting amount, so be sure to conserve it until you make some more. Also, spend some time here in the city, make sure you equip your teammates with gear. Can't have them going to the grand line with basic equipment.
Find and buy yourselves a ship first, then once you do come here and collect the money. Jacob invited a few people to help you man your ships, but you're free to hire others here on the island.
And remember, 6 months, Water 7."
John and Ron both nodded their heads.
Bob watched them leave the ship one by one.
He already mentioned to them that they needed to buy a log pose before they set sail. If they didn't, they'd get lost at sea. He also told them the basics on how it works.
After John and Ron's groups were gone, Bob smiled.
"So, where are we headed to now?"
Luna asked.
"Well, first I need to get us a log pose as well. I'll handle that, you and the others can go into town and buy whatever you need for the grandline. Weapons, armor, it doesn't matter the cost just get what you need.
"You not setting up a base here?"
Bob shook his head.
"No. I'm having someone else do that, they should be here within a week or two."
Jacob came over to Bob.
"I can put the new sails up now?"
Bob nodded.
Jacob turned around and yelled.
"Alright boys! Time to put up the new sails!"
Luna was confused.
"What sails?"
Bob smiled.
Jacob turned to her and showed her a mask. It was scary looking, as if it was some sort of demon. It was all white, but the eyes were crimson red and the horns on the mask was red as well.
"What is that?"
"It's a mask. It'll be part of our image. We'll be faceless, leaving others to wonder who we are. Eventually the marines will put a bounty on us, for some reason or another. Even if we do nothing wrong, our group will be considered too strong to be normal pirate hunters. Thus they'll throw us with the other pirates. I can't have you guys in the public eye yet, so I came up with this.
Put these masks on we'll be whoever we want and do whatever we want. Thing is, because all the mask look similar, it'll be like we are the same but many as well. It's something unexpected."
Bob explained to Luna.
He grinned.
"Remember this. The possibilities are endless, so why go the straight path when you can carve a new one? Do the unexpected and keep your opponents on their toes."
Bob actually stole that from the Faceless faction description. As for the mask, he stole the design from League of Legends. However, no one here knew that.
Instead of Blood Moon clan, they'd be pirates, revolutionary or whatever they wanted to be.
Bob gave John and Ron one too the day before. Ron's was that of Jhin from League of Legends, while John's was that of Yasuo.
"Hey Jacob, i'm going to head out now. When the others return for the money make sure they grab some den-den mushi as well. Tell them to contact Dave before they leave this place."
Bob yelled towards Jacob.

This is my first time trying to release a story I've written, so feedback is welcome. The premise is nothing special, I just want to do it well. A lot of similar stories I've read make me ask "what kind of game would work like that?" Sometimes believable gameplay elements give way for a more immersive story, but I hope to make that as balanced as possible rather than going for cheap thrills. Well, I guess we will just see how this goes.
