A very misty area. A place where pirates are free to drink and have a good time. Shanks spends some time here with the rest of his crew enjoying drinks and partying.

Noah stumbled into the bar already drunk. He sat on a stool and began to look around, he noticed that a couple of men were having what seemed to be a party, being drunk he stumbled by them hoping to join in on the fun. One of the men noticed him and held up his sword thrusting it with such a powerful motion that its mere force slit the stool in from of him into two pieces. He looked up and noticed a man who was missing an arm, he couldn't see his face well enough to determine what the man looked like but he looked a little familiar. Noah looked at the mans hand and then in his mind relived the event that had just happened in order to memorize the exact movement of the attack so that he too would be able to do it.

Noah looked at the man, and showed his cutlass. A group of men in the bar gasped and crowded around Noah and the man, who stood up, "Is that a challenge mate?" asked the man. Noah stared at him for a moment, "If thats what you want" he said without making the slightest . The man thrust his sword forward, , he was obviously out matched. Noah got up and looked at the man, at one point Noah believed he was strong; he was nothing compared to this guy. If he could just see that attack again he could use it to his advantage.

Everyone in the bar was laughing, they knew the match was one sided. Noah stared at the man but didn't recognize the face. He noticed 3 scars across one of the man's eyes but the dimly lit room made it hard , he was truly powerful. The man advanced and thrust his sword the same way, this time pinning Noah against the wall. The notable twist of the man's hand allowed Noah to imitate the thrust however Noah wasn't able to reach his cutlass because he was pinned down. He tried to grab his cutlass but it was no use, the man has probably planned it so that Noah would be defenseless.

The scarred man threw his fist back and tried to punch Noah in the face. A second before his fist could make contact a man, who had been sitting down in the bar, jumped forward onto his table and in one swift fluid motion drop kicked the scarred man as well as grabbed Noah. Before anyone could react the man dragged Noah out of the bar. It was too quick for even Noah to react. No one left the bar to chase after the two and after ten minutes of running the man stopped and let go of the grip he had on Noah. A shaken Noah, who still wasn't sure what had just transpired.

Noah's clothes were torn and dirtied. It was dark outside and before he could utter a word the man had created a fire. The silent man sat on a rock. Noah looked up at the man, he had a terrible headache, "Why'd you do that?" he asked. "That man you were fighting, his names Shanks. Red Haired Shanks and he is way out of your league." Noah's face remained stoic, "Red Haired Shanks" he repeated as he remembered that the man had seemed familiar. The bar wasn't lit well enough for Noah to tell the true color of the man's hair. He was lucky that he had been dragged out of there.

Noah was a bit taken back, he had heard stories about the red haired pirates. He looked up to pirates like Shanks as what he might be able to become one day int terms of strength. Noticing Noah's facial expression, the man nodded "yes, he is the most powerful pirate around here and picking a fight with him is a death wish." Noah didn't really heed the man's words, as usual he didn't care that much that he could have just been killed. The initial shock was over Noah had more important things on his mind, why was this man so fast?

"How did you move so quickly?" asked Noah showing considerable interest. The man smirked,"Thanks for noticing, I pride myself on being swift. It's an art you know." Noah didn't care too much for the answer the man gave more importantly could he learn it, "So you can teach me how to be as agile?" The man thought for a moment, he seemed to be debating whether or not to say yes in his mind, "If you're willing to learn I can." Noah smiled for the first time, "Excellent. What do I have to do?" something was considerably stranger about Noah.

"Whats gotten into you?" asked the Man noticing this change. Before Noah had a chance to respond the man flipped over the fire and landed a kick to the crown of Noah's head. Noah reached to grab the leg but before he could the man was able to jump away from him. His speed was uncanny. "To be quick, you have to learn to stay on your toes." said the man as he ran in for another attack. Noah jumped up to his feet and shifted his weight to his toes. "This should be interesting" said Noah as he rolled his sleeves up getting ready to fight.

The man flipped into the air once more but this time landed behind Noah, before Noah could even think he repositioned his body and sent a kick behind him. "Pathetic" said the man softly as he grabbed it and delivered a quick chop to leg. He wasn't able to break it but Noah cringed in pain. "You're still slow" said the man. He released the leg and scurried backwards. "s**t." whispered Noah still puzzled as to why he was slower than the man. "Keeping on your toes is only part one of becoming as quick as me, its not that easy." said the man.

"You have to be able to shift weight to your legs. Weight is equal to power being able to get a strong push off from your legs. With the initial push off from your legs you will be able to increase your agility greatly. You'll have to be able to do the same thing with your hands if you wish to flip." Noah listened but he had never tried anything like this, it couldn't be so easy to force weight onto a limb otherwise everyone would be doing it. Noah tried to charge towards the man implementing what he had heard yet his speed didn't really increase.

Noah tried to kick off his foot once more. This time he was much quicker. The man didn't have time to move out of the way but tried to retaliate by sending a kick towards Noah. Noah quickly grabbed the man's leg and swung him around and threw him into the floor. His speed had greatly increased. Noah sat down to catch his breath, shifting his weight throughout his body was tiresome. "Get up." said Noah without a smirk to the man who was still lying on the floor from the swing he had been put through. "Get up." Noah repeated, keeping his voice in the same tone, the man didn't move.

Now he entered what seemed to be a bar that would suit his need for the future. He looked around and noticed a man beating down the others. Rake liked silence and the fact that the man on the ground kept the other man saying get up annoyed him. He lifted the lying man to the ground. "Now he's up!" Then he continued to walk to the bar and ordered himself a beer!" Now he had to find a crew and later he would pick up his blade, find a guy named Johnny in west blue. Learn how to wield a blade and then go on the sea of piracy.

Noah got up a moment later. Was this guy knocked out? He approached the non moving body and kicked it. There was still no movement. "s**t." said Noah, not really worried about the man. Noah wanted to learn more from this guy, but with him knocked out he wouldn't be able to learn anything else from him. Noah leaned down and placed his index and middle finger on the man's neck, there was no pulse. Noah was surprised, he wasn't strong enough to kill a man with one attack.
