8 News of Tragedy (1/2)
As the ship got closer to the harbor Nate noticed his dad on the deck of the ship.
The ship docked and his dad came over to where he and his mother where standing only to be confused seeing Nate. At first he couldn't make out who he was but under closer observation he understood that he was son and was shocked by his growth spurt.
”Nate, look at you!! All grown up while I was gone.” said Leon as he hugged his son.
”Welcome back Dad!!” said Nate
”Welcome back Dear. How was your trip?!” asked Lilly
”It was great. And I am starving, I have missed your food so much.” said Leon
”Ara..Ara..Ufufufu.. Come I have prepared food, let go home and have lunch.” said Lilly
Nate and his parents went back home and had lunch, while Nate was excited to know about the happenings around the world and to ask his father to forge him a sword. Right after lunch he bombarded his Dad with questions.
His dad told him about the happenings around world he had heard about in his trip. He heard about the increased activity of pirates since Gold Rogers death almost 3 years ago and he also heard about something that interested.
The tragedy of the island of Ohara where an entire island was sinked with a Buster Call by the Marines due to the Ohara clan seeking out forbidden knowledge to destroy the world. The most shocking news was about the demon child Nico Robin who had a bounty of 79,000,000 berry for sinking five war ships and the entire world is out hunting for her.
Nate who knew the true story behind the incident was dejected when heard the news, but he couldn't do anything as he wasn't powerful enough to go against the WG and Marines yet.
In order to divert his attention from such a depressing topic he asked his father if he can forge him a sword. When asked why he need one he said that he wanted to get stronger by training his swordsmanship so that he can protect his parents. Leon laughed at this statement and promised his son that he will make him an amazing sword.
After talking with his father some more he went towards his room and started to telepathically communicate with Baal.
”Hey Baal, what do you think about my progress?”
”Not bad for a three year old, you need to work some more on your Haki but your physique has improved greatly granting you the strength of an average man.” stated Baal ”But don't get cocky because you will not be able to use even have of your strength due to your lack battle experience.”
”Hmm.. That's not entirely my fault either, I have spend the entire three months training.” Nate said
