He kills with one hand and heals with the other... Posts: -1,476 Group: Admins Member #5 Joined: Mar 4, 2009	Captain Bartholomew K. Runch stood at the head of the Good Ship Guppy, breathing in the salty air as he sailed the South Blue in the calm of the early morning. It had been years since he thought his dream was unattainable. Since he was persecuted for crimes never committed. Sine he had gone in to hiding. That had gone now. It had gone with the voice of a single man. The most wanted man in all of history. Gold Roger. Runch stared at the dark, black horizon, remembering the his own past. He had won his devil's fruit in a cereal contest. His was deemed most delicious in all the seas. Yet his total victory was torn away from him, when the sore losers attacked him, and subsequently, lost their lives to a nearly dead cereal maker. The marines didn't see how it had happened, only the result. Some dead men, and the man who committed the deed. He was wanted. He went into hiding, fearing he could never see the light of day again... But then Roger was put to death. The words of that man, they created history, as it were! Before anybody knew it, the Age of Piracy, or the Age of Dreams as many knew it, had begun. People sought out their dreams, even if they needed to turn to piracy, and many did. Bartholomew K. Runch knew that his goal was once again attainable. Just as it is now. Captain Bartholomew K. Runch stared out to the horizon, smiling as he knew he would take what he wanted. The dawn came, and with it would be a new pirate, named Captain Crunch.

The sway and bob of the ship on the gentle waves didn’t faze him as his balance stuck his feet to the wood. As usual there was nothing to be seen but endless blue as it had been for a few days, even with his improved eye sight he couldn’t see anything things were getting a little boring now. With a small sigh he took a step backwards into nothing and hopped into the air before plummeting down to the main deck. His landing was like a feather as his cat like reflexes kicked in and he landed on his hands and feet effortlessly “Captain there’s nothing on the horizon that I can see. All sides barren are we sure Cherry is sending us in the right direction? There hasn’t even been sign of a trade route or a hint of land in days.” Hachiro though bored stayed the same, arms folded, his scarf covering half of his face and his messy brown hair nearly covering the other half as it blew about in the wind.

The tattered old marine's uniform blew in the wind as he crossed his arms. "Every nakama aboard this ship is as trusted as if they were my own family," he said through his chuckle. Within the moment, his chuckle turned into a plain laugh, and the hat with the large 'C' nearly fell right off his head. "Then again, you never knew my family!" Crunch spoke as if Hachiro had already heard the punchline, the words he himself was already laughing so hard at. "Ah, but anyway," he continued, clearing his throat. "I have utmost faith in that child's skill as our navigator."

I’ve heard a fair amount of news from the Grand Line lately, seems things are seriously starting to heat up. We ready for it?” When Hachiro asked questions it was sometimes hard to hell if he was bored and just making conversation or he was genuinely interested. His voice would stay the same though never bland and droning, just a gentle calm happiness in his tone at all times.

Well I havent been alive for 30 years... Posts: 375 Group: Forum Moderator Member #8 Joined: Mar 6, 2009	Johnathon Jon Johnson walked onto the top of the ship, his sash wiped lightly in the wind. He walked up to his captain. "Today is Tuesday, Tomorrow is Poker night." He then turned and looked around for a moment, and even though the sky was clear, it was soon filled with colorfull birds, that JJJ keeps inside the ship, all in his room, and As such JJJ tends to sleep with the food. The group of birds landed around him and on him chirping and talking to him as if he was their own. "The Birds seem happy... I think of this as a Good tiding, Today is Tuesday, Tomorrow is Poker night." He said again, afraid they might forget. He then walked back up to the two. "I have thought much of this Grand line... Much of this journey... I long for the thrill of an adventure... I long for more flags..." He then sat down and pulled out his card deck, he flipped through the cards and the wind caught a few of them, yet his bird friends quickly retrieved them like dogs, and he fed them seed in return.

Posts: -1,476 Group: Admins Member #5 Joined: Mar 4, 2009	Crunch chuckled at the flock of birds that his first mate had summoned, and even more at his reminding them of poker night, just as he did every single day. It was almost therapeutic for the captain to watch his first mate's interactions with his pets. Ah, but alas, these talks of business brought him back to the seriousness of life. "I do not believe we are ready for the Grand Line yet, my friends. We must get stronger in these South Blue seas first, before we can even consider taking on the threats of the Grand Line. Stronger, like that Strawhat crew who recently destroyed the Enies Lobby." Crunch smiled as he brought up such an event. That "Strawhat Luffy" was something to be shaking the world to the extent that he was. To declare war on the World Government was sheer insanity. Insanity, or the strength he feels for his crew.

Posts: 1,165 Group: Admins Member #1 Joined: Mar 4, 2009	“We might not be ready for the Grand line but it seems we’re playing poker like we always do.” Hachiro stretched out of laziness than tiredness, his body was just not being used lately apart from sleep, eat, drink and play poker. Though it was the mention of the Straw-hat crew that got Hachiro thinking, if those guys were destroying Enies Lobby with their bare hands just what sort of unreal powers do they all posses. He was no where near that sort of power that the Straw-hat crew possessed yet here he was doing nothing, something he needed to change. He got off the railing and gave a few more stretches of his arms before in the blink of an eye turned into his seven foot tall Lion form thanks to the Neko Neko no Mi: Model Lion Devil Fruit. His mane was whipped about by the wind as was his scarf still but he didn’t care as he jumped off his feet and landed on his gigantic paws and began doing vertical push ups to pass the time.

JJJ said as he frantically tried to ensure his feathery friends that the new lion wasn't some sort of an enemy, after a few minutes of running up and down the ship, he managed to do so. His favorite bird however, never left his shoulder. "Captain, you speak of this Straw-hat crew... they broke something? or an other... but if was able to be destroyed it must not have been worth protecting... and Straw dose tend to catch on fire easily..." He then whistled lightly, and the bird on his shoulder followed the toon. "But I do have to say I hate this particular spot of the ocean... no islands for birds, no ships to steal flags.. no captains keys.. and its not even Wednesday!" To any other group of people they would have thought JJJ was joking, but this crew knew he was all to serious.

Sometimes he wished he could just sail the seas with his crew forever, but he knew that could never happen. All men die eventually, and they all had dreams to fulfill. Dreams that would take him to the Grand Line, and hopefully the One Piece. As things quieted down again, the cereal killer spoke up once more. "You should try reading some newspapers more often, John. When you're as skilled at killing people as you are, I would expect a greater knowledge of the world, not the naivety of a child. Hahaha." He casually walked over to where Hachirou was doing his push-ups, and sat on the lion-man's back as though it were his personal captain's chair. "If you want to get stronger, and we all need to, you're going to need to work harder than that!" The captain looked over at his first mate, the completely unknown ninja-pirate Johnathon Jon Johnson Smith, the third, of course, and gestured with his hand. "Hachirou needs endurance and concentration while he's at it. Why don't your throw some birds over to peck at him a bit?"

Posts: 1,165 Group: Admins Member #1 Joined: Mar 4, 2009	Hachiro was more leisurely doing the push ups to warm up before he done some more difficult ones though it seems his Captain had another idea. When the aging man sat on his back it didn’t phase Hachiro but mainly made him look to the side to see what had happened to make him become a chair. “I was merely warming up, you should know me never one to injure myself due to not properly warming up Capt.” Not even bothered about the remark Hachiro took a hand away that was on the opposite side Krunch was at and began doing nose to the floor one armed press ups with moderate ease. His muscles were much stronger when in Lion-man form so a feat like this was nothing really. “Oh yeah John I could do with a training snack, send some small ones over I can get em in one bite. That or they can get my mane I’m sure it could do with some grooming.”

A small fire burned in his eyes, then as if the birds read his mind ALL of them swarmed him, they wernt really doing anything though other than flying about. Then it stoped. And JJJ sat back down. "I'm Hungery.... and I hate reading captain.." He said as he grabed his gut.

He was still doing his one handed push ups easily with Runch on his back, he could have done this all day and been happy with it. “I’d say go get something to eat but I think Megumi is cleaning the kitchen, so unless you want to be asleep for a month and a half I’d probably wait till she’s done. Though Capt you should put some weight on give me a challenge here.”

He began twisting his palm and fingers through the air, playfully at first, but more quickly and with a purpose only a moment later. Cereal appeared in the air as his hand made its motions. Piece by piece at first, but the air was soon shooting the cereal like a fountain, the brunt of it landing on his beastial second mate. As it pelted him, it became clear it was not the regular cereal the captain usually made, but his incredibly dense combat cereal, heavier than steel.

"Still hungry" he mumbled to himself, then he took a hand full of bird seed and picked out the sunflower seeds and began eating them.

Posts: 1,165 Group: Admins Member #1 Joined: Mar 4, 2009	Hachiro was actually joking about the added weight, he was going to simple just do hand stand push ups instead after Runch moved, so he didn’t expect the sudden bombardment of combat cereal to force him down to the deck. His nose was touching the wood ever so slightly by the point as he strained not to fall over. His huge Lion muscles were bulging in his arm as he kept himself, Runch and the cereal all up at once, he wasn’t complaining though this was good enough for him. A small smirk creped onto his face showing off his huge razor sharp teeth, he slowly but surely used his might to push his body upwards on the one arm. He trembled slightly as he managed to get his arm full extended again, he was now used to the weight and he had managed to position himself more accurately on his huge paw and began once again to start his push ups slower than before showing the added weight was paying off.
