Thiller Bark is a huge pirate ship owned by Gecko Moria. The ship is so large that it appears to be a little island. The ship has many parts including a mansion, a lab, a garden and even a forest. It would be easy to get lost here.

Jesbero entered thriller bark and it was stranger then he could imagine. Jesbero had thought it would be creepy, but this topped it. Graveyards, Mansions, Castles, and even creepy forest. Though in all honesty the whole place was a clique just everything looked like it could be taken out of a horror story. Jesbero walked into one of the mansions and he saw all the creepy photos, and he laughed at them until they began jumping out, and chasing him. Jesbero ran through the corridors of the mansion, and he was gasping for air when he entered the throne room. Looking up Jesbero saw the strangest person he would ever see in his life. The man was about twenty feet tall, and his neck was longer then any normal human and his body was just strange. Jesbero then said," Who are you?" The man just laughed and said," Pish pish pish pish."
Doppleman 1/5
The man kept laughing as he looked down at Jesbero and he said," I am the ex-schikibuki Gecko Moria." The name was stranger then the man's looks, and he said," So you're the man who used to manipulate his shadows?" Gecko nodded as he laughed, and he said," Yes I used to possess the Kage Kage no mi though what is it of you." Jesbero took a seat, and he said," I need some help I want you to teach me what you've learned." Gecko smirked, and then said," I could, but you know what is it that I get out of it." Jesbero sighed, and said," Truly you want to know. Well if you do I will truly make your fruit be the most fearful fruit of them all." Gecko smirked, and said," Can you make three dimensional objects?" Jesbero nodded, and he made a multi ball and he said," What about yourself." Jesbero's doppleman was very flat and was barely recognizable as a person.
Doppleman 2/5
Jesbero looked, and said," This is my Doppleman." Gecko's face became sadden and he placed his hand in front of his face, and said," It looks so freakin wrong." Jesbero then said," What do you mean?" Gecko Sighed, and said," A complete replica would be three dimensional not look like he was made out of paper." Jesbero had this angry look on his face now, and he said," Well then Mr.Moria why don't you tell me how?" Gecko said," It's way to easy you picture yourself from all different angles, and then those different images in your head will mold your shadow together pish pish pish." Jesbero nodded, and he began to picture himself in his head although it was a lot harder then Gecko made it seem so easy.
Doppleman 3/5
As Jesbero kept imaging himself Gecko sat, and thought," This kid has lots of potential although he seriously has problems thinking he is better then me." Jesbero then said," There that should of work." Gecko then sighed and said," It looks even worse then before he looks like you are a box." Jesbero's Doppleman was to funny to look at and Gecko just couldn't stop killing himself with laughter as he almost passed out, and he then said," Seriously he looks like a Picaso artwork." Jesbero glared, and then began to picture himself from every angle, and make it as if he was standing still. Gecko then notice how hard Jesbero was thinking and he smirked as he saw the man think.
Doppleman 4/5
Jesbero then finished thinking and when he opened his eyes it was as if he saw a reflection standing right in front of himself. Jesbero jumped for joy, and hugged his shadow, but Gecko said," Quiet you and me will be doing tons of training that will push you to your limits, and I want you to know that the Doppleman is the basic of all your techniques. Don't think everything is ok now, because I'm going to push you to your limits, and back because I was known as the man who stole hundreds of crew's shadows and turn them into zombies, and I am Gecko Moria the owner of Thriller Bark. Don't think that you're better just because I've retired, but just see yourself as lucky. Well come with me we need to train more." Gecko stood up and him and Jesbero walked to a large arena that was behind the mansion."
Doppleman 5/5

Walking to the arena Jesbero felt like he could trust Gecko, and he said," So please tell me what you will teach me." Gecko said," To utilize your shadow like as if it was a swiss army knife. You need to know that this will be a very stressful training and after the end of this and seeing how great you will have become you might change." Jesbero smiled, and said," Seriously I'm always going to stay beside my captain I just hope he does." Gecko sighed, and said," Well my crew just stayed here, and even after their fruits were extracted they still wish to teach those who have their fruits." Jesbero nodded, and said," I won't forget you Gecko you might be the best pirate I've mean who will teach me." Gecko just sighed, and said," Pish pish pish. Don't worry just live through the training."
Brick Bats 1/5
Jesbero worried that Gecko's training might be to horrible, but that was when he entered the horrifying arena. Jesbero saw the dark vibe from everywhere and as Gecko went to take his seat he said," Stand in the middle and I'll assure you for a great fight understand." Jesbero nodded, and he walked into the middle of the arena. It was very strange standing in the middle of this arena as if he was a gladiator, and Gecko then shouted," Well Mr.Crowley I used to control shadows and put them into zombie bodies." Jesbero nodded, and said," You're going to teach me that?" Gecko shook his head," No those bodies with the help of my dear friend Doctor Hogback has help me reanimate them." Jesbero then watched as the zombies enter the arena and Jesbero was shocked as he then looked at Gecko and said," What are you going to do feeds me to them?" Gecko shook his head and just laughed," Pish Pish Pish Pish."
Brick Bat 2/5
Gecko merely kept a smile on his face as he glared down at Jesbero, and he said," These are our opponents they will be what you will be facing, and by the end of the night you will have defeated them all or they will have killed you understand?" Jesbero shouted," What good is it if I die going up against your ghouls? What happens to me as your student then?" Gecko laughed, and said," If I don't remember you've agreed to this before they arrived, so if you still believe you can't handle my training then you will be leaving." Jesbero nodded, and said," Well a student must always obey his master." Gecko laughed and said," That's right pish pish pish." Jesbero took his Violet stance, and then Gecko said," The technique you should try to learn is one I called Brick Bat. Just make your shadow disperse like you did with your multiball, but make them bats and have them strike multiple opponents." Jesbero nodded as he prepared for the fight to begin.
Brick Bat 3/5
Gecko then held a switch in his hands, and he said," With this switch all my zombies will be under my control." Gecko then switched the switch, and said," All Zombies attack the target." The zombies then slowly walked towards each other like mindless idiots, and began to attack each other. Jesbero looked up at Gecko who looked back, and said," Your mindless idiots are killing eachother." Gecko nodded, and said," Yea it's a lot better if they had shadows." Gecko was angry, and he then shouted," The one with the purple hair." The shadows then ran towards Gecko, and he said," With the short neck." Gecko was so angry it was funny and Jesbero then said," Ok now it is time to start this show."
Brick Bat 4/5
Jesbero split his Doppleman's arm off and then changed it into bats that were like balls, and Jesbero said," Go get them brick bats." The zombies then watched as the bats came at them, and began to bite away at their decaying flesh. Jesbero then said," Is that good enough?" Gecko nodded, and said," Because of how you learned Doppleman it was simply for you to learn brick bats, since you had that Multi ball technique." Jesbero nodded, and said," So what's next?" Gecko then said," Let me think, but you train some other technique of yours." Jesbero nodded, and then Gecko said," Wait can you grab stuff with your shadow?" Jesbero shook his head no and he then shouted," Aha then that is what you'll learn next."
Brick Bat 5/5

Jesbero sighed as he saw the zombies were shut off, and they began acting like normal people, and Jesbero said," You gave them personalities?" Gecko said," Come on I'm on this island I have nothing else to do but talk to them." Jesbero chuckled, and said," So they go from people to mindless killing machines." Gecko nodded, and Jesbero just laughed, and said," That is great." Gecko then smacked Jesbero with his finger, and he said," Back to the point you must learn how to be able to grab something with your shadow. If you don't then you will lose a huge technique you could use." Jesbero nodded, and waited for Gecko to explain how to do it.
Shadow Grap 1/5
Jesbero looked up at Gecko who told him," Look all you need to do is have your shadow turn into a arm instead of a person. Then in a swift movement as if you control it grasp your hand and it will act as if it is was your own hand." Jesbero nodded, and said," I understand." Jesbero then walked into the middle of the arena, and Gecko then shouted," Remember to picture it from different angles or it will just turn into a flat piece of paper almost." Gecko's advice was perfect, and Jesbero pulled it off though he couldn't make it move. Even though he grasped his hand he couldn't even make the fingers move. The zombies ran towards Jesbero and Jesbero could only do one thing and that was to defend himself instead of trying to perform the Shadow Grap.
Shadow Grap 2/5
Understanding Gecko's commands he knew he had to perform the technique, but with the zombies going berserk Jesbero had no choice but to fight. Jesbero saw two human zombies, and he performed Savage elbow, and his Doppleman stood next to him, and copied him. Jesbero smiled, and said," That is great he is like a shadow." Gecko facepalm, and said," Seriously he just figured that out." Gecko saw the man place money in his student's bag, and he thought," Maybe we should play a game." Gecko got up and grabbed his student's bag and through the cutting gauntlet at him, and he said," Five minutes, and if you don't perform the technique perfectly then everything that is in this bag will be mine."
Shadow Grap 3/5
Jesbero thought Gecko was playing dirty, but he just said," Fine Moria." Jesbero's shadow then changed into five cannon balls, and he then said," Lets get this fight started, and Gecko you'll need more zombies after this." The five cannonballs then split into smaller and smaller balls until they were the size of bullets and Jesbero said," Kage kage Multiball Bullet combo." A technique based off of a technique Jesbero then said," Bang." The shadow bullets then barraged the zombies tearing through them.
Shadow Grap 4/5
After his bullet sized shadow bullets torn through Gecko's shadows he said," Now give me my bag." Gecko said," Two minutes." Jesbero sighed, and then his shadow reached forwards and as a big hand it grabbed onto his bag, and he said," Hah now I have it back." Jesbero then put on his cutting gauntlet, and then said," So what is next?" A huge shockwave was created, and Jesbero flew into the side of the arena. That is when he saw a giant red zombie, and he said," You will be fighting me and my friend Oz. Jesbero's jaw dropped and he almost passed out.
Shadow Grap 5/5

Ben was sailing calmly as a thick fog rolled up consuming the surrounding area. Ben shrugged slightly dismissing the occurrence as an aberration of the Grand line. It wasn't until a half hour later that he realized something was amiss as a large shadow appeared over his boat and what seemed like a mouth gaped wide as his ship was pulled inwards. Ben simply rode the cross current as he saw that it wasn't an actual animal that had swallowed him but a construct of some sort. For the moment he simply drifted along looking for signs of life until he spotted an island and used a water blast to accelerate his approach towards it.
Gavotte Bond en Avant 1/4
Ben smiled as he reached the island and pulled his boat onto the beach before stretching and checking his equipment. It was never a good idea to explore a new place without insuring that your weapons were ready. After his check Ben nodded and began to walk inland looking around slowly. As he walked his sixth sense told him that there was someone else nearby and potentially watching him. A twinge made him dive to the side just as someone burst the tree cover above and stabbed through the area his heart had been a short time before, the man had the appearance of a samurai and the sword made Ben smile.
Gavotte Bond en Avant 2/4
Ben's smile spread wider as the man shifted and regarded him once again this time face to face as Ben drew his katana and readied himself for the next attack, the man's thrust had been smooth and it was a motion that Ben appreciated as a swordsman. That said he planned to duplicate it as soon as his body got a feel for how the man moved. Ben knew that the man was unlikely to kill him as his logia would allow him to dodge or absorb most attacks but as a swordsman Ben did not care to advertise his nature and instead preferred to work physically first and fluidly second.
Gavotte Bond en Avant 3/4
The man shot forward again before jumping and with a slight twisting motion thrusting towards Ben again, this time Ben saw the twist that was the 'trick' for the technique and nodded as he parried the attack with his left blade before shifting and counter thrusting at the samurai's left shoulder. The man shot to the side exposing the biggest flaw to a thrust was as always how linear the path was and that it was easy to dodge. As he and the other man passed one another both pivoted and took several steps backwards before regarding one another with slight respectful nods.

Ben regarded the man for a long moment and stared as the man shifted his body slightly and held a katana at a slight angle to his side. Moments later the man lunged forward with a blurring slash aimed at Ben's right hand, it was clearly a disarm technique but fortunately Ben was using cutlasses which had a hand guard to protect his body from the blade. The collision between the blade and the hand guard still slightly numbed his hand before his left countered with a riposte followed by a slash at the other man's shoulder.
Prelude Au Fer 1/5
Ben shifted back as the man attempted the same slash to disarm him once again, this time though Ben shifted backwards quickly and set his feet in a cat stance before moving forward slightly and launching a series of slashes from various angles at the man, by observing how he dodged he could determine more of the man's potential for movement. Once he knew someones movement potential he could determine how much faster he could move than the opponent and determine a course of action to disable and destroy his opponents movement and ability to fight.
Prelude Au Fer 2/5
Ben's stance shifted only slightly as he continued attacking, shifting suddenly back as his opponent slashed at his hand once again, it was a dangerous technique to be wary of with a surprisingly short movement required. Ben nodded as he danced backwards avoiding the man's combination of slashes and thrusts. He was fast but no faster than Ben as of yet. Ben pivoted slightly and jumped backwards before twisting and counter thrusting out of the air as the man had unknowingly taught him moments ago. The man moved suddenly to the side as Ben shot by and the two once again put distance between them before regarding one another.
Prelude Au Fer 3/5
Ben nodded to the man slightly before saying softly, My name is Ben Kaizen, may I know yours? The samurai stood still for a moment before the words, I am called Ryuuma. The honor of the fight is mine. Ben bowed slightly with his blades held to the sides as he said, Thank you Ryuuma-san, I hope to learn more from you as we fight, your blade speaks to me. As he finished speaking Ben stood and his arms spread widely before making a circular motion that ended as Ben shifted the positioning of his hands so that both blades pointed to the left hand side.
Prelude Au Fer 4/5
Ben's eyes locked on the samurai, up until now he had ignored the man's ghastly appearance and only looked at the swordsmanship, now however he was ready to give everything and to do that he needed to remain aware of his surroundings. Ben's hands twisted before he shot forward with a smooth dash and used his left blade in a low slash to distract while the right paused before blurring through the air aimed to disarm much as the other man's slashes had moments before. Ryuuma however moved back smoothly before countering with another thrust, it seemed that despite being slightly slower than Ben the man was good at prediction and balanced enough to make up for the speed deficit with agility.

For now the dance continued as Ryuuma and Ben exchanged attacks and parries smoothly until the samurai turned his blade suddenly and Ben pressed the attack. Ryuuma's hand shot forward and his arm moved in a smooth rotation that resulted in a blurring of the hand and blades to an extent it looked as though multiple thrusts were approaching at once. Ben however knew better than to always trust his eyes and instead shifted his blades outward and used the broader side to deflect the thrusts at his vitals and push Ryuuma's sword to the outside where a half dozen shallow cuts appeared on Ben's arms and sides.
Polka Remise 1/6
Ben danced back as Ryuuma pursued and used a sudden shift to his right to both avoid the next thrust and shift the flow of battle into a side running style that would give his speed an advantage and allow him several moments to plan his next movement and initiate an attack. The thrusts were faster than he had expected but he was sure that the style depended on an arm rotation which was hidden by the other man's garments for the moment. If Ben wanted to fully understand the movement and both counter and learn it he would need a way to see the man's arm from a lower angle and he had an idea of how.
Polka Remise 2/6
Suddenly Ben threw his left blade vertically into the ground as he pivoted and spun towards Ryuuma with a long horizontal slash, the other moved backwards before adopting the odd grip again and sending a flurry of thrusts at Ben's torso. Ben was able to once again turn his blade and use minimum motions to block the majority of attacks as he used his empty blade style to parry several wayward thrusts before glancing back over his shoulder and backpedaling slightly. His eyes locked on the blade for several seconds as he altered his body to fluid and attempted to block the thrusts. If any slipped by while he was looking at the man's reflection they would not be fatal.
Polka Remise 3/6
Ben nodded as he saw how the arm was rotating before lunging away from Ryuuma and grabbing his blade once more as he spun to his feet and braced for a continued assault. Ryuuma came quickly forward leading with another series of fast thrusts as Ben countered with his own series of thrusts using both of his blades. Ben's eyes flashed as he danced forwards sending a series of thrusts with his left hand and the occasional slashes with his right hand. As Ryuuma moved back this time Ben shifted his grip and began using the pirate slashes technique to cause Ryuuma to move farther back and dodge wider to the sides allowing Ben to more easily block his thrusts.
Polka Remise 4/6
Ben shifted to his left suddenly as he adjusted his grip and twisted his arm before sending a blur of thrusts at Ryuuma as he attempted to turn the man's own technique against him. Yet after a dozen thrusts he felt his shoulder strain and was forced to liquidize his shoulder to prevent it from dislocating and damaging the muscle as he dodged backwards and reformed his arm in his sleeve. Ben hissed as he gritted his teeth and realized there was more rotation needed in the shoulder than he had provided for the attack and already Ryuuma was pressing the attack with another blur of thrusts.
Polka Remise 5/6
Ben nodded as Ryuuma pressed the attack but also countered with the same technique again, this time he used a smaller rotation at the shoulder and a wider rotation at the elbow and wrist to duplicate and deflect Ryuuma's attacks while hissing softly and focusing on the base of Ryuuma's sword instead of the tip. In this way he was able to successfully counter the thrusts without taking further damage. Suddenly both he and Ryuuma pivoted and moved backwards as the latter shifted and nodded slightly. Ryuuma then altered his stance and thrust his blade suddenly at Ben. Ben only had an instant to realize the nature of the attack before his head disappeared and a tree behind him suddenly had a hole burst through it's trunk. Ben smiled slightly and put his blade away. "Thank you for the lesson Ryuuma." Ben bowed to Ryuuma and Ryuuma seehted his sword. "Go into teh world and prove your worth. Yohoho~" He turned and walked off into the dark forest.

Ben walked through the dark woods back to his boat but stopped when he heard something nearby. He turned and walked dowards the sound finding Jesbero training with his Shadow powers with Geko Morria and remained hidden. "He's workin' pretty hard." Ben smiled and reached in his pocket and slipped 4,000 beli into Jesbero's bag then left knowing that Jesbero was becoming much stronger.

Jesbero sighed as he looked at the two and he said," Are you joking or do you see my death in the future." Spider webbing the wrapped around him, and he used his shadow to cut the webbing as it pulled him in and he said," What was that." This spider half monkey zombie then said," Let me take him out Mr. Moria." Gecko and Oz sat down in the arena stands, but Oz crushed the arena side, and all Jesbero could think was," I need to end this battle with this spider freak so I can defeat those two."
Ridged Rising Fist 1/9
The spider monkey was fairly swift and at the same time it was large and ignorant. Jesbero couldn't stop laughing at its weird look. Spider monkey shouted," Why are you laughing you fool I hope you know that am the strongest zombie of lord Moria's forces." A samurai leaned against a pillar in the arena, and said," Sure you are. In all honesty you are nothing, but a large monstrous punk." Jesbero nodded, and said," With that red one behind you that should prove you're lying." Ryuuma the skeleton zombie nodded, and Jesbero took hsi Violet stance prepared to defeat the spider monkey.
Ridged Rising Fist 2/9
The spider monkey jumped at Jesbero and shot a large ball of webbing. Jesbero sighed as his shadow smacked it away, and then as the spider monkey fell towards Jesbero he lifted his leg up, and said," Megaton kick." Jesbero hopped into the air on his left fight and with his right leg he slammed it into the chest of the spider monkey, and Jesbero laughed as the beast lost its breath. The creature landed on its back, and Jesbero just couldn't stop laughing as it coughed up, but the creature then had a swarm of twenty five rat spiders that left its mouth as the spider monkey then woke up and said," Now you will die."
Ridged Rising Fist 3/9
Jesbero ran towards the Spider rats, and he said," Kage Kage Breaker." Jesbero's shadow wrapped around his arm and formed a drill. As it spun rapidly Jesbero smacked and thrusted it into the spider rats with easy, and even with their webbing the rats were nothing compared to his shadow drill. After the rats were defeated Jesbero looked at the monkey, and as Jesbero's shadow formed back into its doppleman form Jesbero said," Just die you aren't going to get anywhere if we continue this battle." The spider monkey was going to do no such thing and would continue the fight.
Ridged Rising Fist 4/9
Jesbero saw the Spider monkey charge at him at a rapid pace, and Jesbero ran at him also. Just at the right moment Jesbero slid underneath the spider monkey, and then said," Ordeal Of Axes." With his Cutting gauntlet facing upwards Jesbero laughed as three blades of wind shot up into the gut of the spider monkey. The blades didn't cut through him, but left deep gashes that bleed out on the arena floor. Jesbero then looked as he placed the gauntlet in his bag, and the spider just got up and Jesbero said," Really? Are you seriously that dense." The spider monkey jump forwards trying to crush Jesbero and all he could do was laugh as he knew what he would do.
Ridged Rising Fist 5/9
Jesbero laughed as he created four multiballs and then laughed them into four vital spots of the spider monkey. As the creature landed on the ground Jesbero said," It is the truth, but this battle will end sooner or later and I will be the winner in the end. All you are doing is trying to wear me down. Though it isn't working your sad attempts get worse and worse each time, so just do the great deed and die." The spider monkey laughed as its arms formed together and created a pair of arms and legs. Jesbero saw it was now a giant humanoid spider monkey, and Jesbero just laughed as he prepared to kill the beast.
Ridged Rising Fist 6/9
Jesbero's greatest achievements was getting over his fear of death and pain from giving up supa supa, and standing up to his captain. Though they were horrible decisions Jesbero knew they were excellent choices. As the spidermonkey stood in its giant humanoid form Jesbero just laughed and laughed as he shouted," You can never defeat me not even if you see me as the worse man in the world. You will fall you pathetic mutation of life." The spider monkey slammed its fist into the ground, and Jesbero jumped into the air, and used his Kage Kage Breaker to drill through its right arm. As the arm fell to the ground blood spilled out from the cut limb. Though it was funny as Jesbero had no belief that he would give up.
Ridged Rising Fist 7/9
Jesbero's strength was that far greater then this zombie, and he knew it would end soon. Jesbero simply needed the right move to finish him off. Jesbero sighed as he knew the beast was finished and using his Kage Kage breaker he drilled through the spider monkey's legs, and then sliced through his legs. As the creature fell to the ground and he fell to the left, but Jesbero said, only a few words," Those who fall do not fall, because they tripped or because they lost their balance. It is only because they fall to those who are stronger then they are." Jesbero then took his violet stance, and laughed as his Doppleman turned back into his shadow and he shouted," Oh yea this is just my strength."
Ridged Rising Fist 8/9
Jesbero performed the giant spider monkey was shocked as Jesbero performed a punched to his chest, and then followed it up with a uppercut that sent him flying up into the air. As he flew towards the ground Jesbero sighed, and then said," This is Fin." Jesbero lifted his elbow up, and then as spider monkey fell to the ground his spinal cord made contact with his elbow and the force of the fall snapped it in two. Jesbero then used a megaton kick to kick the remains of spider monkey off towards Oz who smacked them into the ocean. Jesbero sighed as Oz stood up, and said," Me turn to fight you." Gecko said," Calm down Oz you will get your fight let me show him a few things." Gecko then drew a giant pair of scissors from his back that he then split in two to form giant blades.

Gecko looked at Jesbero and he said," This is so unfair, but sadly unfair is where I draw the line." Jesbero sighed and said," Size is nothing you just have a huge neck and tall hair and those horns put no fear into me." Jesbero sighed, and then said," Look all I am going to say is that I want you to fight a fair fight, so this is what I'll do." Jesbero used his shadow to restrain his left arm, and he said," I am going to make sure this is as fair as possible." Jesbero then drew his cutlass and then said," Fight on Moria." Moria laughed, and," Pish Pish Pish Just die."
Kagemusha 1/7
Jesbero took a weird stance as he held his cutlass slanted, and he then said," Ok so are you sure you want me to die?" Jesbero ran and jumped into the air towards Moria, and while Moria and him clashed Jesbero noticed that Gecko was weak even though he was so huge. Jesbero sighed, and said," Bye bye teacher." Moria laughed and then just simply laughed as he had swung Jesbero into a side of the arena. Jesbero stood up, and he said," Ok one arm is seriously not a good idea anymore." Jesbero's shadow unwrapped itself, and he then said," Ok Doppleman lets show this freak the real meaning of a fight." Gecko smirked as he held his two large blades, and was prepared to kill and make sure he could get his fruit back.
Kagemusha 2/7
Oz clapped in the background cheering on Gecko like a little child. Jesbero sighed as he stood in front of Gecko and he said," It's funny your boy over there really thinks you're that amazing." Gecko sighed and said," Oh you better bet I am." Jesbero then blocked the two incoming attacks coming from Gecko who swung his blades downwards towards Jesbero. It was a shock to see how strong Gecko really was and even with both his hands Jesbero was being pushed back. Jesbero then smirked as his Doppleman wrapped itself around Gecko's hands like cuffs, and he said," Funny eh makes you wonder why you gave this fruit up."
Kagemusha 3/7
Jesbero smirked and then jumped up onto Gecko's right arm, and he then unwrapped his shadows and then changed his Doppleman into a giant shadow hand which wrapped around Gecko's neck and then applied pressure, and Gecko shouted," What are you doing?" Jesbero then kicked Gecko in the side of his face with a Megaton kick, and Jesbero then at the moment of impact released his shadow, and it sent Gecko into the arena. Jesbero sighed as he landed on his feet, and he said," Thank god he's finished with." Gecko's laugh could be heard echoing the arena, and he then said," You really think this is finished. Not by a long shot." Jesbero then waited a few seconds as the arena began to overflow with zombies, and he thought," Holy crap." Jesbero couldn't understand what he could do to stop all these zombies, but he then thought," Well there is that option."
Kagemusha 4/7
Jesbero was fearful of what was going to happen during this fight it was almost like he felt hopelessness. Jesbero just sighed as he barely could understand the situation and so he used his Kage Kage Breaker technique to rapidly spin dust and gravel towards the zombies to provide him with a smoke screen almost. Jesbero ran off, and when the dust disappeared only two zombies could be seen. Jesbero thought to himself," Wait what is with all this broken glass, and there being only two of these creatures." Gecko then shouted," Surprise pish pish pish." Jesbero then felt the boot of Moria kick him in the a**, and send him flying onto the arena floor, and he used his doopleman to catch him and stop him from hitting the glass. Jesbero then said," Mirrors that was all. You are a idiot Gecko."
Kagemusha 5/7
Gecko laughed and said," Me the idiot no that can't be it must be you. To think someone fell for that trick I've used that against my men before and the snipers could tell who was who and they shot the zombies." Jesbero stepped onto the ground after jumping from his shadow's hands, and he said," In all honesty you are a freak." Jesbero then said," But then again I have my moments." Gecko then said," What do you mean." Jesbero began talking to Gecko and distracting him as his shadow was behind him, and he then said," Are you ready?" Gecko said," What do you mean." Jesbero said," Surprise." His doppleman performed a Megaton kick that send Gecko flying and eventually landing right in front of him. Jesbero then said," So are you happy?" Gecko laughed and said," You need to be where he is in all honesty." Gecko was now confused on what he meant, but then he could see the shadow of Oz and looking up he thought," Oh my god."
Kagemusha 6/7
A smashing noise could be heard as Oz's lower back crashed into the arena floor Jesbero had moved between his shadow and switched places with it. Oz stood up rubbing his but and, and he said," Sorry I didn't mean to break your place master." Gecko then saw Oz open his stomach, and Jesbero was shocked as Gecko then was placed into Oz as if he was going to pilot him like a giant robot. Jesbero could barely see himself beating Gecko with the size Gecko was, but now having to go up against Oz who was big enough to take half of the arena Jesbero just said," God I know you might be there, but if you are please tell me you have a plan that doesn't have me ending up with you." Jesbero then sighed and all he could do was laugh, and he then shouted," That's it I've lost it." Just like before with Supa supa Jesbero lost complete control of himself and was now prepared to fight with his true potential.

From the dark appeared a large ship. It was quite silent for being so big and it was quite interesting because it might be abandon. There was no room for waiting and Rake was quickly on board on the great ship. With his 4 swords he had little to fear form anything around here. Nothing seemed to come as he walked around at the deck. Yet he doubted that he was alone for he could feel the presence of a man with blades. It was like two magnets that where pulling each others. Now what could happen from here?
Gavotte Bond en Avant 1-4
Rake opened a door and entered a room. It was quite dark but a light on the other side. This proved that the ship was not abandon but was quite alive. Now this seemed to be of the home of a doctor or some sort. There was things to experiment and lots of other stuff that Rake found quite dull. Rake turned around and begun to cross the room into the dark center of it. Nothing happened which was strange for Rake had guessed of a surprise attack, this was odd in deed.
Gavotte Bond en Avant 2-4
He was definitely not alone around here but where was the entire crew? This was a huge ship and had to be controlled by hundreds of crew men. Yet here the was none at all. No one was around and no sound could be heard, it was kind of creepy but still Rake would find the source of the cravings of a swordsman. He knew there was one around for he could hear the sound of steel against steel and it wasn't from his swords. Yet now was just the question when this person would come out.
Gavotte Bond en Avant 3-4
Now Rake continued to look around and walked back to his ship. Something was wrong and he wanted to check that all of his belongings where still there. They had not been touched luckily but he realized that he had to travel in the opposite direction of the log pose. He had no food for a long trip and Kale was his chef. He was kind of used to having a chef and now he was on his own. Yet then came an attack from no where. Rake was fats enough to react and could see the movement.

"Oi, oi, oi! Don't be rude!" Rake said as he took one of his katana. This would be a great way to train with a regular sword and test his skill against another swords man. Now with a weapon in hand Rake was far more deadlier and better focused. "Don't you think it's low for a man to strike form the dark and back. If I hadn't been the man I was I might have been killed. You have faltered in choosing your target as hostile while you could have greeted me as a friend. Now you'll pay the price!"
Prelude Au Fer 1-5
"So what are you going to do flying swordsman? You probably have some fancy moves up your sleeve. Let us see if any of that can even do the slightest of damage upon me. I'm giving you a fair chance to fight me. Rake Cane, Forte Pirate swordsman and we'll be in for a treat today. For I know that more are watching this. Come out, come out where ever you are. For this is something you won't see all day. There is no point in hiding behind doors and barrels." Rake was on a roll here and kept his chatting.
Prelude Au Fer 2-5
Rake didn't know exactly on what level this man in front of him where but he noticed a few people come up and get closer. Yet he guessed that it was far more that kept their self hidden during this fight. That might be the best action if things went out of hands. "Now come on, Mr. swordsman and show me what you got. We can't just be staring each others down all day long. It is time to get the show on the road! Wouldn't you say the same thing?" Rake didn't get a single answer from the man.
Prelude Au Fer 3-5
The man attacked with the spinning thrust against and now Rake could easily analyse the entire move and dodged it easily. Rake had a smirk on his face as he looked at the swordsman. "That won't do, it failed twice and now I even understood how it's made so try something else would you? Unless you want to find your death faster you'll find another technique of yours and attack me. This is how things will unfold, so now think Mr. Swordsman and fight properly. We don't want to shame our swords."
Prelude Au Fer 4-5
"Now come on and get to me. That spinning thrust attack just won't do any more." Rake said as both men where circling each others. Yet the the man attacked and Rakes katana flew away just to land in the wood of the ship. This was surprising because Rake had begun to look down upon this man. Rake took out another katana and that was attacked as well. Yet Rake got a picture of the technique. With the third attack and the third katana out of his hands. Rake drew his b*****d sword and smirked.

"Now come one now, it's the second attack I've figured out form you. Now You're still silent as ever and that might make you scary for the kids but here you face a true man and a true swordsman. You have to be better at killing me and worse in teaching me your techniques. This way I'll soon have you figured out and can cut you down with a final blow. Now that would just be boring now don't you agree? We really have to step up a notch to prove the value of any swords man out on the sea."
Polka Remise 1-6
Rake enjoyed this scenery very well and would gladly fight another swords man. The biggest thing with this was that for such a long time had he learned nothing with his blades and rarely used them. His fire ability had been all to him. Yet now it was back with the swords and who would go against him for doing such? He wouldn't believe any of his own crew members telling him to stop swinging his blade. He was trusted by them as he trusted them. That was what nakama mean.
Polka Remise 2-6
Now this man stood once against in front of him in silence. He attacked once again with the spinning move and Rake dodged easily and directly the man tried to have Rake's sword beaten from his hands. Nothing of that would longer work because Rake was to well aware of how the techniques would be used. Some things truly had to change or nothing would stand up on this boat when these two where through. It was surprising that none of them had cut anything big yet.
Polka Remise 3-6
"So have you under stood that such techniques doesn't work against me any more. I've learned their very secrets and you need to shape up. You're farto open to call yourself a swordsman and it's kind of pathetic. Now what are you truly going to do? Show me your strength and attack me with all that you got. I need a great warm up for the days ahead. Don't you see why and how that's possible that I can read you? You're such an easy opponent really when you get the cards."
Polka Remise 4-6
Rake maybe should relax a bit on his tongue for this way the fight would be all talk and no action. yet Rake easily spun around the attacks from man, over and over again he evaded. Nothing seemed to even graze Rake as they danced along. Rake's great sword flew across the air as if it was nothing. What could this swordsman do? He truly had to sue one of his best techniques and as it was now Rake would learnt hat to in a time. For the lesser the change the more the gain.
Polka Remise 5-6
Now Rake was first taken by surprise as the man actually was able to land a few attacks. It seemed as if the man had several swords all of the sudden and keeping up was hard. Yet as the first blade went deep, only flames appeared instead of blood. This was Rake's second strength. He was a logia user and very cut would burn the swordsman and force him to slow down. When doing so Rake under stood the technique and could parry it easy after a few tries.

Now Rake looked at the man who seemed to have calmed down so Rake went to pull out his first katana from the wooden sheath it had found. It was sad that the katanas had landed like this for they deserved so much better care. One had to be tender to his swords as to his teeth, if he wanted them to be able to cut through good. Now it was quite nice to be next to a decent fighter in so long. Just if both men just could break the ice between them. It seemed as if they did things would be great.
Dawn Serenade 1-8
"Oi, swords man. I'm as I said before Rake Cane! Swordsman of the Forte Pirates. It's been a great honour to fighting you and it had taught me a lot. It was almost as if you wanted me to learn this and it would be nice to hear if you would answer me. That way we could truly reach a higher level and then I would be on my way for leaving. Cause I guess that there's no one close to wielding a sword just like you on this ship. I don't know what ship this is yet but I could guess."
Dawn Serenade 2-8
Rake pulled out the first katana and sheathed it and looked towards the other man. He had sheathed his blade as well and it was good that they had found a common interest and idea and it was a truce, for how short none would know until it broke loose again. Rake went up to his second katana and sighed again, a true shame for a good blade. Being stuck in common wood and not in the warm comfort of a true sheath. He had to see over the tips of his blades later.
Dawn Serenade 3-8
The swords man spoke at last and it seemed as if some answers would come from this. He begun to say his name and it was Ryuuma. A very good name for a fighter Rake though and kept on listening to the man. The man also told Rake the name of this place and it was Thriller Bark and Rake had known it for sometime. It was quite a nice rumoured ship over the Grandline and blues. Now this was truly a great way to learn techniques indeed. Also not to mention how fast.
Dawn Serenade 4-8
What would happen now then? Rake had no idea! Something good had to come from it any how. This man wouldn't treat Rake like this if they all wanted him dead so it seemed as if he would leave today alive. Yet not that he doubted that, it was just that none would die by either sword. This was good indeed could be the start of something better. Now Ryuuma continued to talk about the ship and started to show Rake around a bit. It was truly an amazing ship.
Dawn Serenade 5-8
The very size of the ship faded a bit in Ryuumas words. The numbers meant nothing for the eyes told a true tale. This was an amazing set of craftsmanship and skill. This was the birthplace of something that humans could never have been believed to build in the first place but look at this great ship. Even if the Forte pirates ship was big it faded in comparison. This was indeed an ultimate ship, yet it wasn't of the taste of Rake. No, it would be two big of his taste truly.
Dawn Serenade 6-8
Now Ryuuma had one final thing to teach a man like Rake. It would make him able to surprise opponent on a bit of reach apparently. Yet first he had to show Rake the basics. Not something he could do while fighting. Rake was also told that Ben and been here before him and learned techniques from Ryuuma. This meant that both Rake and his captain was lucky to find this place and learn great skills. Now it would be great if Ben was around and to see what the Forte would do next.
Dawn Serenade 7-8
Now the hour had come for Rake to learn the final skill of Ryuuma. First it had been weird but Ryuuma had just assisted in a second Forte Pirate quest for swordsmanship. This would be great indeed and what a thing to take home to the blues. He had really reached higher then his grand pa. Before they started Rake grabbed his final Katana from the deck and after a while Rake had mastered the final technique of Ryuuma. He could leave Thriller Bark happy knowing that he was just a bit better then yesterday.

Oz stared down looking at Jesbero, and Gecko said through Oz," To make this fair I want you to gather the shadows of every object around you. The trees, rocks, and even the arena. Now do this or else you'll certainly die." Jesbero sighed and then said," Fine ok I guess I can do that, but to tell you something fun I will never have to deal with you again after this final lesson." Jesbero then began to focus as his own shadow stayed put, and he began to use his energy to grab the shadows from objects around him. Jesbero then thought as he did this," Whatever happens I must keep my sanity. Or else this will all be for nothing."
Shadow Asgard 1/10
Jesbero smirked as the shadows began one by one to be absorbed into his body Jesbero could feel the strength that he gained from this his hair began to spike upwards and his pale skinned body grew bulkier and bulkier before he was up to Oz's knee, and his arms were enlarged a long with his legs and his chest. Jesbero had turned into a monster, and his skin had turned a dark pale green color, and Jesbero said," This is the form that you talk off Gecko. What power it's just funny though. I wonder what your weird a** looked like this." Oz then slammed his fist down, and Jesbero grabbed a hold of it with both his hands, and he then said," Hey Red Oni why don't you leave the stage. Jesbero then lift Oz up, and then his Doppleman who had changed as well grabbed onto the other arm of Oz, and Jesbero said," It's showtime."
Shadow Asgard 2/10
Jesbero then smirked as he then lifted Oz, and then suplexed him onto the arena floor. Jesbero then let go of Oz's arm, and said," Oh come on you need to stand." Oz stood up, and Jesbero then said," Double Megaton Kick." Jesbero and the Doppleman then ran and Jumped up and kicked Oz in the back, and Jesbero said," Oh right into the castle this isn't to good." Oz crashed into the castle walls demolishing it, and Jesbero smirked as he ran into the castle. Entering the castle suits of armor began trying to attack him, and Jesbero laughed as he smacked them aside with ease. Jesbero then saw Oz standing in front of him, and he laughed and shouted," You can't beat me with just a few cheap shots." Oz then threw a right armed punch towards Jesbero's chest.
Shadow Asgard 3/10
Jesbero laughed as he simply used the Doppleman to grab onto the punch and throw his arm back. Jesbero then turned the Doppleman into seven cannon balls, and he said," Kage Kage Multiball. Fire." The balls then launched out towards Oz, and they crushed into his chest, and stomach and sent him flying against the castle walls. Jesbero's shadow then wrapped around Oz's arms and sent him flying into the gates of the castle, adn crashing the doors wide open. Now in the wide open outskirts of Thriller bark Gecko could be heard shouting," You Red giant why can't you simply do anything good with your life. You really should fight with your strength." Oz then ran and jumped out towards Jesbero, and Jesbero laughed as he stood his ground, and then jumped into the air, and as Oz began to Land Jesbero smirked.
Shadow Asgard 4/10
Jesbero's smirk was the sign of horror as he kicked Oz in the middle of his rib cage, and sent him flying into the ocean. Gecko then sighed as he used a escape pod that launched him out and used Oz's right arm. Oz's right arm landed onto the top of the castle, and Gecko said," Good thing I've built a backup plan. Jesbero sighed as he saw the blue giant that was twice the size of Oz, and Jesbero thought," Jesus what is going on?" Gecko then jumped onto the head of the beast, and he then shouted," Pish Pish Pish this is the new Oz, and you will never leave this island until you're dead." Jesbero sighed and then thought," I can't beat that thing I mean the red one was barely a challenge, but this would prove to be tough.
Shadow Asgard 5/10
Jesbero sighed as he then saw the giant swing his arm down, and using his doppleman him and his doppleman pushed the giant's arm up, but it was the toughest challenge Jesbero would ever have to face. Jesbero then said," I need more power." Jesbero's shadow then absorbed into himself, and the shadows from all over the island began to absorb into Jesbero and Jesbero said," Ha ha ha ha now we will see who is just as strong." Jesbero was now the size of the first Oz, and he said," Swing down on me again, and I will toss you out of the grand line." Jesbero then laughed as he swung his fist down and Jesbero being the green beast he was now held onto blue Oz's arm, and then pulling it to the left Jesbero swung Oz to the ground, and a shockwave could be felt all throughout Thriller Bark.
Shadow Asgard 6/10
Jesbero then walked up to Oz, and he then said," Are you ready Oz?" Oz stood up and threw a punch towards Jesbero, but Jesbero smacked it to the side, and then said," Nightmare Echoing Punch." In a split second Jesbero threw twenty punches, but Oz's face was that of someone who was just knocked out, and Jesbero then said," Ok now it's time to show what is truly known as my strength." The shadows that Jesbero had Absorbed began to emerge from his body, and they all began to wrap around his arm as his body grew smaller and smaller. Jesbero then saw the huge drill that had formed around his arm and he shouted," Gecko this is what you've taught me this is what I've learned, and with this strike I will demolish your creation."
Shadow Asgard 7/10
Jesbero couldn't do anything, but laugh as he then shouted," Kage Kage Giga Breaker." Jesbero's arm then pointed in the direction of Oz who began to stand up, and Jesbero said," Ehhhhhh Moria I hope you can stand this attack, because it will crush you!" Jesbero then yelled as he launched forwards. Jesbero closed his eyes as he spun in a circle and then his Giga breaker crashed into the arms of Oz who used them to block the attack, but the sheer force broke through Oz's defenses and proved to be flawed compared to Jesbero's attack. Jesbero then pierced through Oz's chest cavity, and head and he then landed and shouted," I am the victor." All of Jesbero's shadows flew back and went back to where they normally were, but now Jesbero needed to find the man he was really fighting.
Shadow Asgard 8/10
Jesbero went through the rubble, and the wreckage that was left of Oz two point zero, and Jesbero said," Gecko you know you have to see me again." Gecko laughed as he then grabbed Gecko with his Dopple man and he said," Oh come on Gecko why don't we have a huge talk." Gecko laughed and said," So what I've taught you all I can." Jesbero nodded, and he said, "So you went to teach me, but at the same time you wanted to kill me. What a horrible person you are." Jesbero then sighed as he punched Moria's gut and Gecko then said," Jeez I left you a present though you really need to go find it. They're in the castle behind the painting of my crew there is a chest. Open it and you'll find what I've prepared for you." Jesbero nodded, and said," You know I guess you aren't a bad guy after all Gecko." Gecko smacked Jesbero in the face, and said," Pish Pish Pish true. Though you need to go before my zombies find you."
Shadow Asgard 9/10
Jesbero sighed and said," Turn them off." Gecko laughed and said," You broke my remote." Jesbero sighed as he was the one who was going to cause panic on thriller bark, but he ran into the nearby castle, and he gently removed the painting with his Doppleman and then opened the suitcase that Gecko had left. Though any other pirate would hate what he had left Jesbero loved it. Stripping out of his ruined clothes Jesbero put on the stitched up patchwork pants, and the shirt that had wired from the elbow connecting the arm fabric together, and wires connecting the two halves of the shirt together. Jesbero then put on his knew patchworked sowed together shoes, and he then of course took what he had learned from this island back, and Gecko then said," You need to head out. A fight is soon to come to you." Jesbero sighed and said," Bye bye Moria, but I'll come back sooner or later." Jesbero then left Thriller bark and was happy to have left.
