《What in the World?》Chapter 2
Advertisement
I could feel a burning sensation at my face as I slowly opened my eyes I could see the sun has already risen and a new day has begun. After checking my body, I immediately felt better than before magically all the pain I had yesterday has banished.
Waking up from my bed I began to do some light stretches and started to make my way outside the hut. If I guess it right it should be around nine in the morning there were a bunch of kids outside playing tags and some people were doing their daily routine.
From afar I saw Maine with a concerned look on her face. Right away I walk straight to her and asked what was wrong.
"Early in the morning and yet you already look troubled what seems to be the problem?"
Upon seeing me suddenly right beside her. Her facial expression changed slightly.
"You see, we don't have enough people here and mostly all the grown men are either outside trying to gather meat or would constantly build a wall to prevent the wild beast from entering."
"And so, those kids would volunteer themselves on helping the grown men by carrying things that are usually heavy. I know they are young boys but.." Seeing Maine was a bit hesitant about finishing her sentence so I cut her off and began to give her an idea on what's on my mind.
"I have an idea that will eventually remove all your concern with them helping out in the village I guess you would be interested right?" After telling her that her facial expression drastically changed and was both in joy and excitement.
"You do!?" I could see through her eyes that she was hopeful about my ideas so I began to ask her if there are any tools that I can borrow. After asking for tools without hearing my explanation first she had dragged me to another house where someone was hammering on something.

There was a man inside this house as he saw us entering he stopped immediately and smiled.
"You rarely come here Maine is there anything you need? Oh is that the young man you helped the other day in the forest?" Upon seeing me he was a bit surprised since people from outside would rarely come into their village.
"George, Max said he can do something that will help those kids a lot! He asked me for some tools so I brought him here instantly" Maine couldn't stop her excitement and just voiced out instantly when he saw George.
"What can I do to help then?" George was a bit curious so I asked if there was something that I could draw. He immediately came inside in a room and a second later came out with a paper and a quill and ink.
At first, using the quill was a bit hard for me but later I adjusted and began to draw a blueprint of a wooden wheelbarrowed. I first drew the wheel which was made of wood George was a bit confused about what was the use of it, then later I drew everything to complete the blueprint. He was skeptical at first but still trusted me and so he began to gather the right tools and needed wood to start.
Seeing that he was a bit skeptical I asked him if I could build it first and he immediately gave me a few tools to start it off. After getting Wheels and axle done I continued to make the whole body and the two handles and only finishing it in the afternoon.
Without noticing I was so into building the wheelbarrow I forgot how long I built it. To my surprise, George was still watching me build the first wheelbarrow and Maine got bored and instead walk outside to prepare food for dinner. After seeing the finished product he instantly asked me what it does that will help them.

Seeing the wheelbarrow finished Immediately I was impressed with myself never would I imagine getting this proud on making a wheelbarrow in my entire life. With a proud look on my face, I began collecting the tools and some small woods that were scattered and put it inside the wheelbarrow.
With a simple lifting on the handle, I began to move with the wheelbarrow and seeing this George gasped and was dumbstruck. Those things that were numerous and hard to carry was being carried and move easily without much effort.
"Hhh-how is that easy? Why didn't this thing been made before?" He couldn't imagine a not so complicated build or tool to be so useful. He was still shocked so I move in front of him and gave him the handle to try it. And again he was surprised It was easier than carrying them and were more light as he could just push it off and could carry more things than using their hand.
While still feeling awe from the wheelbarrow and he was so busy inspecting it as he was eager on making a wheelbarrow too. After speaking some things about the usage of the wheelbarrow and some guidance on making it. He began to make his own as soon as he started I already made my way going back to where I stayed.
As I get close to my place I saw Maine with her basket again as she saw me she began to walk right at me.
"Here's some meat you must have been so tired. I left early since I'm always clueless about what you guys make I would rather gather fruits and prepare dinner than watching you building stuff that I don't know off." Maine laughs heartily and was surprised I was served meat since they were a bit rare to eat.
Seeing my reaction when I saw the meat she immediately explained to me that the villagers have encountered an injured boar and they just finish it off with no injuries from the villagers and so they were celebrating for getting an easy kill.
After thanking Maine and eating my fill I was already at my place and was ready to rest. Little did I know that tomorrow my simple Wheelbarrow start to change the livelihood of the village.

Adventures of one dude with an afro
...East-Blue, West-Blue, South-Blue, and North-Blue are the four seas that constitute most of the whole planet. Humanity is thriving on the small patches of land which poke out of the four seas. These four seas are separated horizontally by a humongous mountain which encircles the whole planet, called Red Line, and vertically by, the most dangerous sea known to man, Grand-Line. Both sides of Grand-Line are flanked by strips of the windless sea called Calm Belt. The eternally windless strips of sea are impossible to cross with only wind-powered ships. It might be calm over the water, but the water hides nasty beings called sea kings, not to be disturbed as the name suggests. People in this world can train themselves past any and all physical limits, only their mentality is the problem. A strong mind makes the body strong. Everyone in this world possesses this almost magical power in them called haki. There are three types of haki, two available to everyone and the last one is seen only once in seven million people. Different haki can be used to strengthen the body to even affect logia users, to predict and to foresee attacks, sense others’ prowess and even exert your will upon others. Fruits of the sea devil. Otherwise know as devil fruits, give miraculous powers to those who eat them, but robs them of their power to swim and makes them vulnerable to anything from normal seawater to the crystallized power of the sea, sea stone. Devil fruit powers are categorized into three different categories: Zoan type fruits allow their users to transform into an animal of a sort and gain their abilities. There are also human and mythical type zoans so they should actually be called transformation powers but those ones are extremely rare to the point of none existent that most just associate zoan transformations into animals. Logia fruits make their eaters become the element that the fruit was. For example, the one who eats the fire logia fruit is able to use fire in their attacks, become fire to avoid physical attacks and much else. Last but not least are the Paramecia fruits, these fruits are undoubtedly the weirdest and most random of the bunch. There are some that let you attract metal, make you slim and slippery, make your body able to split your body into many pieces, makes your body rubber, lets you control vibrations, light, pressure almost anything you can imagine. Lastly, there are two opposing factions in this world. The marines and the pirates, most strong people are part of either one. Both have their ups and downs. Pirates are free people who do whatever they want. Good or Bad. Marines are the upholders of justice in this world yet no justice system is without corruption. I closed the introductory book while frowning. "Isn't this a summary to the one piece world...?" The cover isn't mine and I am willing to take it down.
