The Going Merry rocked against the stormy waves as the crew sailed away from Loguetown, the wind howling around them. Rain pelted the deck, lightning crackling in the distance. It had been a chaotic escape, but now they were finally on their way to the Grand Line.
Blizz leaned against the ship's railing, watching the rain fade as the storm slowly began to pass. The salty breeze filled his lungs, and he couldn't help but smirk. This was it. He was officially sailing with the Straw Hat Pirates.
As he looked back at the rest of the crew, he saw Luffy grinning from ear to ear, completely unfazed by the storm. Zoro sat cross-legged with his arms folded, his swords resting beside him. Sanji leaned against the mast, cigarette in hand, while Nami checked the map, ensuring they were on course. Usopp, meanwhile, was fussing over his slingshot, probably making sure it was still in top shape after the rain.
Blizz exhaled and stretched. Might as well get comfortable.
Luffy, turned to Blizz with that wide, carefree grin of his. "Oi, Blizz! You're really a ninja, huh? That's so cool! Do some more tricks!"
Blizz sighed. "You're not gonna let this go, are you?"
Luffy shook his head rapidly. "Nope!"
Usopp jumped in, eyes gleaming with excitement. "Yeah, yeah! Do something crazy again!"
Sanji, exhaling a puff of smoke from his cigarette, smirked. "Tch. Don't encourage the idiot too much."
Without another word, he brought his hands together in a quick seal. A faint shimmer surrounded his body, and within a second—
Poof!
A cloud of smoke erupted around him. As it cleared, the crew gasped.
Standing before them wasn't Blizz anymore—it was Zoro.
"WHAT THE—?!" Usopp reeled back in shock.
Zoro's eyes narrowed. "Oi… what the hell is this?"
Blizz smirked—or rather, the transformed Blizz smirked—his voice perfectly matching Zoro's deep, unimpressed tone. "What? Can't tell the difference?"
Luffy immediately burst into laughter, falling to the floor. "Zoro! There are two of you!"
"How the hell did you do that?!" Sanji's cigarette nearly fell from his lips.
Blizz, still in Zoro's form, crossed his arms. "I could stay like this all day if I wanted. But here—" Poof! Another cloud of smoke, and he was back to normal.
Usopp clutched his head. "That's way too freaky! You could totally mess with people using that!"
"Man, that's so cool!" Luffy cheered, still laughing.
Zoro, however, looked less amused. "Yeah, real funny… Just don't turn into me again."
Blizz raised an eyebrow. "What, afraid I'll do your job better?"
Zoro clicked his tongue. "Tch."
Sanji, arms crossed, smirked. "Now that I think about it, I bet you could transform into a certain someone and get all the ladies' attention, huh?"
Blizz smirked. "Oh? You mean this?"
Poof!
The smoke cleared, and standing there was Sanji.
The cook's eyes widened. "Oi! That's not funny!"
The rest of the crew erupted into laughter, especially when Blizz mimicked Sanji's usual pose, pretending to flirt with Nami.
Sanji lunged at him. "Change back right now, you bastard!"
Blizz poofed back into himself, laughing. "Alright, alright, that was too easy!"
Still grumbling, Sanji straightened his tie. "If you ever turn into me again, I'm kicking you into the sea."
Blizz just chuckled. "Speaking of the sea… Let me show you guys something else."
He walked over to the edge of the ship and casually stepped onto the side of the mast. But instead of falling, he just stood there—horizontally—his feet stuck to the wood as if gravity didn't apply to him.
"HUH?!" Usopp pointed at him. "YOU'RE STANDING ON THE WALL?! HOW?!"
Blizz casually crossed his arms. "Chakra control. I can do this on walls, trees, and yeah… even water."
Luffy's jaw practically dropped. "YOU CAN STAND ON WATER?!"
Blizz nodded. "Yep."
Luffy immediately grabbed his arms. "TEACH ME!!"
Blizz snickered. "Sorry, captain, but you kinda… lack the necessary chakra."
Luffy pouted, crossing his arms. "That's not fair…"
Blizz casually walked back down the mast as if he were walking on a normal floor. "Well, that's your ninja lesson for today."
Usopp whistled. "Man, if I had your powers, I'd be unstoppable!"
Zoro sighed. "Yeah, yeah… until you trip over yourself and fall into the ocean."
Usopp glared. "Hey!"
As the crew continued laughing and chatting, Luffy was still staring at Blizz, his excitement not fading even for a second. "Ninjas are so awesome…"
Blizz just smirked. Yeah… this crew is gonna be fun.
___
As the storm continued , the five of them gathered around a wooden barrel near the center of the deck, The waves were high , the sky gleaming with lightning.
While blizz watching from a far. 'Finally the scene that i have waiting for, should I join them, I mean am not fully a crew member'.
Luffy placed his foot on the barrel and grinned. "Alright! Before we enter the Grand Line, we gotta do this!"
Blizz raised an eyebrow. "Do what?"
Luffy beamed. "We each say our dream! What we wanna be!"
Blizz hesitated for a moment, watching as Zoro smirked and placed his foot on the barrel next.
"I'm going to become the world's greatest swordsman," Zoro declared.
Sanji exhaled a puff of smoke and followed. "I'll find the All Blue."
Usopp clenched his fist dramatically. "I'm going to be a brave warrior of the sea!"
Nami smirked and stepped forward. "I'll make a map of the entire world."
All eyes turned to Blizz, who stood there with his hands in his pockets. He hadn't really thought about this. He knew everything about this world—he knew how this story would unfold—but what did he want?
He sighed, rubbing the back of his head before stepping forward. "Guess it's my turn, huh?"
With a slight smirk, he placed his foot on the barrel. "I want to be the strongest ninja."
Luffy's eyes lit up instantly. "Whoa! That's so cool!"
Usopp tilted his head. "Wait, strongest ninja? Are there… other ninjas out there?"
Blizz hesitated for a second, scratching his cheek. "Uh… well, yeah. I guess there's… one other guy."
Sanji raised an eyebrow. "Just one? Then your dream sounds kinda easy, doesn't it?"
Zoro scoffed. "Tch. That's like me saying I wanna be the strongest swordsman, but there's only one other swordsman."
Blizz rolled his eyes. "whatever"
Luffy clenched his fist, raising it high in the air. "Alright, now let's say it together!"
One by one, they all lifted their fists, their voices echoing across the open sea.
"TO THE GRAND LINE!"
The wind roared as if responding to their declaration, and the ship surged forward, their journey truly beginning.
The next day, the crew found themselves approaching a terrifying sight—Reverse Mountain.
A massive, towering stretch of land loomed before them, with a powerful current that went up the mountain instead of around it. It was an impossible-looking sight, a natural wonder that defied logic.
Nami was at the helm, gripping the wheel tightly. "Alright, listen up! We only have one shot at this! If we mess up, we crash into the mountain and die! No pressure!"
Usopp turned pale. "WH-WHAT?!"
Blizz, arms crossed, smirked. "It's not as bad as it looks."
Nami turned to him. "Oh? And how would you know?"
Blizz shrugged. "Been here before."
Sanji raised an eyebrow. "Really?"
Blizz nodded confidently. "Yup."
In reality? No. He just knew about it from watching One Piece. But hey, a little bluffing never hurt.
Nami narrowed her eyes. "If you've been here before, then why don't you steer the ship?"
Blizz waved his hands. "Whoa, whoa, let's not get crazy."
"THEN STOP TALKING AND LET ME WORK!" Nami shouted.
At the base of the mountain, an enormous current swirled, dragging them toward a steep incline—a river that flowed up the mountain. The crew clung to anything they could as the ship was sucked into the current like a leaf in a storm.
"WE'RE GONNA DIE!" Usopp screamed, gripping the mast like his life depended on it. (Because, to be fair, it did.)
"FULL SPEED AHEAD!!" Luffy cheered, completely unfazed, eyes sparkling with excitement.
"LUFFY, THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKS!" Nami shouted. "WE CAN'T CONTROL IT—THE CURRENT IS TAKING US UP!"
Zoro tightened his grip on his swords, standing firm as the ship tilted at a dangerous angle. "Tch… this is insane."
Sanji fought against the force of the wind, lighting his cigarette with a practiced flick. "If we survive this, I'm making a damn feast."
Blizz leaned against the railing, watching as the massive current propelled them upward. "Hah, this is nothing compared to what's waiting in the Grand Line."
Usopp shot him a look. "You say that, but have you actually been there?"
Blizz crossed his arms, smirking. "I mean… of course! Who do you think I am?"
"Liar." Nami didn't even look at him as she said it.
Blizz coughed. "Okay, technically no, but I know things."
"Like what?" Sanji asked, raising an eyebrow.
Blizz grinned. "Like the fact that once we reach the top, we'll be dropping just as fast."
The crew blinked.
"…Wait, what?" Usopp's face went pale.
And then—they reached the peak.
Silence.
For the briefest moment, the ship seemed weightless.
And then—THE DROP.
Gravity took hold, and the Going Merry plummeted down the other side of the mountain at breakneck speed.
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!"
The entire crew screamed as the ship rocketed downward. Nami clung to the wheel, desperately trying to steer, while Luffy just laughed like he was on the world's greatest roller coaster.
Usopp flailed wildly. "I KNEW THIS WAS A BAD IDEA!"
Sanji's cigarette flew out of his mouth. "DAMN IT, SOMEONE DO SOMETHING!"
Zoro gritted his teeth, gripping the railing to keep steady. "We just have to ride it out!"
Blizz, on the other hand, had a huge grin on his face. The speed, the chaos—it was thrilling.
Then, suddenly—BOOM!
A massive shadow loomed ahead.
Something big was in the water. Something huge.
And then, rising from the sea like a mountain of flesh, a gigantic whale blocked their path entirely.
"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!" Sanji shouted.
Usopp's eyes nearly popped out of his head. "WE'RE GONNA CRASH!!"
Blizz blinked. "Oh… right. Forgot about him."
Luffy's eyes sparkled. "A WHALE!!"
The Going Merry was heading straight for it.
"We need to act fast!" Nami urged, scanning for solutions.
Before anyone could react, Luffy's voice rang out. "I'll stop it!"
He dashed to the ship's cannon, aiming directly at the whale.
"Luffy, wait!" Nami shouted, but it was too late.
BOOM!
The cannonball soared through the air, striking the whale's side. The impact caused the Going Merry's bow figurehead to snap off, falling into the sea.
"My seat!" Luffy's face contorted in anger.
Blizz stepped forward, placing a hand on Luffy's shoulder. "Calm down, Luffy. Attacking it won't help."
But Luffy was undeterred. "That whale broke my special seat!"
The whale's massive eye turned toward them, finally acknowledging their presence.
"Now it's noticed us," Zoro muttered, muscles tensing.
Luffy clenched his fists. "You wanna fight, whale?!"
Before the crew could intervene, the whale opened its enormous mouth, creating a powerful suction that drew the Going Merry and its occupants into the abyss.
