After he had docked at the Port, Isshin had an idea, if this is magical fruit, why not make a delicious super-natural smoothie! With this new thought, the barber had made his way to the town he had met Van Auge at, he wasn't going to meet back up with him, he merely wanted to find one of the taverns and make a fool of himself. He was gonna make his own drink, a Devil Fruit Margarita. He walked the streets of the town seeing my drunken pirates, one was so drunk that he had to resort to crawling to get to everywhere he needed to while another stood by a wall, hands up against the wall, holding himself up, vomiting his guts out from too many drinks.

Another pirates had two or three wenches around him, each one of them s**t-faced drunk, and all lovey dovey with him. The pirate gave Isshin a confused look. The barber had a rifle about his chest and a large barber razor strapped to his back, with an oddly-colored pineapple. It was a bright purple with orange leaves, he held it in his hands and looked at the man with the wenches, he scoffed and kept walking. The ladiesman saw another women who he began to eye and ironically enough, the wenches became very jealous and started to beat upon him. Isshin chuckled and continued to walk about the town.

While he walked, he saw a sign saying, "The Rusty Blade Tavern" Isshin noticed the sign and soon found his tavern. He entered in and slightly entered awkwardly appearantly. All of the pirates stopped talking and stared at Isshin, who unnoticingly to himself was wearing his bandana up on his face, covering his nose and mouth. He quickly realized and pulled it down and awkwardly smiled. The pirates then began to slowly turn around and restart their stories, discussions, and just complete bull-shitting. Hearing many different things, Isshin walked up to the bartender to ask him a very odd request.

Isshin approached the man and started to ask his strange request, he asked for a blender, "Excuse me?" he said, "Can I use a blender if you have one?" replied Isshin. Confused, the bartender pointed to an area over to the side of everything. In this little corner there was a blender, ice bucket, margarita mix, and various juices. With these supplies, Isshin looked at the Cursed Fruit and back at the Margarita mix, he was going to make a Devil Margarita. With that in mind, he sloppily cut up the fruit and dropped it into the blender, mixing everything up and mixing up for his margarita, adding it all together he poured it into a glass and washed the rest down a sink. He grabbed a little yellow umbrella and opened it, sticking it into his drink. He got even more looks at this point as he walked up to the bar with a Margarita.

He sat down at the bar, and set down his drink upon the table, as he took off Kousou from his back and leaned it up against his chair and put his rifle in front of himself. He looked to his right and there sat a wench juts chatting along with the bartender, she was obviously a flirt, but when Isshin looked down at her feet he saw tons of dirt and grim in between her toes and various cuts and bruises along her legs. He was slightly disgusted as he lifted his green fabric bandanna, up onto his face running along his nose and hanging below his jaw. He lightly shook his hand and turned away. He pulled the bandanna back down and began to take his first drink of his Margarita. He lifted his drink up from the bar lined with disgusting wenches and drunks, and put the straw into his mouth and took a drink.

The Cursed Margarita entered into the straw and traveled up, getting closer and closer to his mouth. The juice began to exit the straw into Isshin mouth were his taste would begin to scream in disgust. His eyes widened and his somach turned sour. He coughed and then spat it out of his mouth like a spray. The drink splattered onto the bar and turned gray and moldy. His mouth had tasted the worst thing in his life. He lifted the drink from the table and held it above the tavern floor. He stuck his tongue out and tilted it upside down, "That was DISGUSTING!" Isshin exclaimed. One of the drunk pirates chuckled and began to laugh at Isshin as he sat there pouring a Margarita onto the floor of The Rusty Blade. The mixed beverage made a disgusting hard slopping sound as it hit the floor, instantly growing a disgusting mold.

The bit of Margarita that hit the counter began to reek of some disgusting unknown material, the fumes entered Isshin's nose and he gagged, quickly pulling his bandanna back up. He lifted his hand in he air for the Bartender to make his way over to him, "How was your p***y drink?" the bartender rudely asked, Isshin shook his head no and asked for some good ol' Ale. The bartender made some remark about how he's lucky he is getting some ale because they juts got their reshipment because the previous shipment was sent into the ocean for some unknown reason. Isshin chuckled, "What's that?" the bartender snapped at him. The barber said it was nothing and awaited his next beverage to wash out the horrifying taste. Little to his knowledge though, a small bit of the Margarita was ingested, leading to an unknown ability which shall be granted to this Twenty-Two year-old barber of the Akashio family.

The bartender soon came to Isshin with a big mug of the good ol' Ale. Setting it upon the counter, Isshin quickly grabbed for it and took a huge drink from the glass. He slammed onto the counter and said his thanks. After some time he began to feel uncomfortable and that is when the wench next to him began to speak. "Um, excuse me but you're, uh, 'hot'" she commented. Isshin quickly turned around and asked her to repeat that because he thought he didn't hear her correctly. "You're hot!" she exclaimed, "Well, uh, I don't mean to brag but..." replying, "No! Your actually hot! Your seat is burning and your face and all your skin is bright red." she quickly interrupted. Isshin chuckled and looked down at his hands. They were bright red and very hot. He touched the side of the bar and instantly began to darken the wood from some sort of intense heat. The Devil Fruit powers had awakened inside of him.

Isshin jumped from his chair and it seemed that he was getting hotter and hotter, but he also noticed that it didn't hurt him. "Maybe this is the ability I get from that fruit?" he thought, but he started to almost light the whole place of fire, he started turning redder and redder, and soon ran outside of The Rusty Blade Tavern. When he made it outside he noticed that the heat from teh sun didn't bother him one bit, and then soon realized that this granted him some sort of heat-producing ability, which in turn made him impervious to heat itself. He tried to calm himself down, hoping it would cool him down. After some time he soon cooled off and soon remained at a slightly above normal temperature. Also he needed to get away from the town, he didn't want to draw too much attention to himself, he didn't want any Marine's after his tail either.

He walked through the streets of the town, trying to keep, but every once in awhile he would leave behind a stone burnt foot print. People started to give him odd looks, he began to run faster and faster, drawing attention to himself, which he ironically tried to avoid but was getting it anyways. He soon came to a clearing off to the side which he took off to. Entering the forest he realized he needed to be cool no matter what or he would light this whole place on fire. As he traveled he found a larger clearing that lead to a cliff-side dropping down into a canyon. Within the canyon was a rocky landscape perfect for this sort of training for controlling this newly granted ability. He ran through the area and reached the top of the cliff, he skidded to a stop leaving a burnt trail behind himself. Isshin looked over the clifftop down into the canyon below, seeing many pillars of desert like rock.

He looked through out the area and saw a twisty path leading down to the bottom of the canyon. Isshin needed a secluded area and this seemed fitting, but he didn't want to jump down to the bottom either because he didn't want to get down there with a broken leg. He left the cliff-side and made his way over to the path. Not much vegetation was growing in this area, which was a plus because he didn't want to burn anything. The area was made of complete dust, sand, and stone. Once he was to the path he began to descend to the bottom, he concentrated on his newly found power. He cooled himself down and heated himself back up over and over while he walked down the path. He noticed the deep grooves in the stone and the large landscape that seemed to exist in such an odd area.

It was quite a long walk down the path to the bottom of the canyon. It was full of twists and turns that wound all the way down to the rocky, desert floor. As he walked he noticed the layers of rock stacked upon each other, the sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic. Each of them packed tighter than others, and put under different amounts of stress till they were melted and cooled. He thought about how much just something as simple as a canyon is affected by heat. He was quite a amazed at this spectacle, and interested too. He was interested in many things, and he wondered up many different things too. But hey, to be a barber, you must be an artist of perfection, and because you're an artist, you must be very strong with your imagination. It is what makes an artist, an artist.

With all those thoughts fresh in his mind he came to realize what he wanted to do, he wanted to make a Pirate crew, a crew of artists, who all show different types of imagination. He wanted to meet a Navigator, a Painter, a Shipwright, and even a Swordsman, with a large amount of imagination. He, himself was the artist of perfection, the artist of razors, and the artist of heat. While he thought about all those extravagant ideas, wound up around his mind, he soon reached the canyon floor. Once Isshin set foot on the floor he collected himself and decided to see how far he could push this ability. He stood in the center of everything and began to heat up. His body started to produce a large amount of heat than any normal body or even animal could. He quickly reached two hundred degrees where his body turned a very light pink.

Reaching six hundred degrees, the pink become more prominent, and he soon reached 2,000 degrees. The acceleration of how hot he got began to grow rapidly. Soon the pink turned into a light red that illuminated Isshin's whole entire body. He looked hot to the touch, which was mostly because of where he was standing. The rocky floor below him was turning a bright red from the heat being expelled from Isshin's body. If he got any hotter it may crack. He wanted to push his limits and know the strength of his abilities. Growing to a horrifying 3,000 degrees, Isshin turned a brighter red, but still a light red. The ground beneath him looked like an oven burner, that was bright red and seeming to create almost a heat haze. Looking from Isshin afar, he looked curvy and wobbly from the heat haze being produced. The hotter he got the more hazy everything looked.

The heat resonating from his body grew once more. His skin slowly went from a light red to a more pure red. His body would burn everything he would touch. A large amount of steam came from his body rising up into the sky. He was amazed by this amount of heat produced, it was quite a feat, and he loved it. He closed his eyes and opened them to heat up his body again. It got hotter and hotter, expelling steam all across his body, the haze from his body was more intense at this point. If one was to put a thermometer anywhere near him they would get mercury poison from it exploding all over themselves. The rock below began to feel soft and liquid like. His body was melting stone into pure lava, he quickly reached 10,000 degrees, something he never thought was possible but now is, thanks to a horrible Margarita.
