Tensura pirates adventures! - The Beginning

The Masterplan

"The time has finally come. Now I am going to show the world what true power is" said Shiki, as he was reminiscing about the past.

*flashback*

"How dare you execute Roger in the weakest of all 4 seas Sengoku! I will not let you!"

"Well then we will just have to take care of you first. You ready Garp?"

"Yeah"

And so, the battle between Garp, Sengoku and Shiki of the legendary rocks pirates began, which destroyed half of Marineford before Shiki was finally captures and put in impel down. But it wasn't long before he managed to escape from there, at the cost of both his legs, which he then replaced with his two swords Oto and Kogarashi. 

After that, he settled on a sky island, to prepare for something big to shake up the world. One day he came down to the blue sea to check the reports of a very strong warrior in a secluded part of a calm belt, which his crew had found somehow, and wanted to recruit him as his subordinate.

"Get lost. The only thing I am concerned about is living in this village in peace and defending it with my life. If you don't want to die at my hands then never come back here again" said Logan.

"Looks like you are underestimating me brat. I am Shiki. And I don't take 'no' for an answer" said Shiki, and attacked him.

Logan turned into cloud to avoid Shiki's attack and surrounded him all over.

"A logia huh? Don't tell me you are just a cocky logia with no real power"

"Oh you will find out soon" with that, the two of them clashed, but Shiki threw Logan back with a single punch.

"Tch looks like I will have to get serious"

And then they clashed again, but this time Logan's fist was much harder than before.

"What the hell. That's not haki! YOU! How did you turn your fist into steel?" asked Shiki in surprise. Logan just kept quiet, and expanded his body to surround Shiki in all directions, and launched pointed projectiles as hard as steel towards him from all directions.Shiki just stood there, caught one of them and repelled the rest of them back.

"This is steel. Pure steel. You turned yourself into steel. But you already have the power of cloud cloud fruit, so how can you do this?" asked Shiki

Logan just kept silent, surrounded shiki again, and created 4 hands out of clouds, turned them into steel and attacked shiki. While Shiki was fighting this, Logan created a separate section of clouds above Shiki, and turned tiny water droplets into steel, and started an iron rain over Shiki. 

"Do you really think such measly attacks can-"

*boom**boom**boom**boom**boom**boom*

As soon as the steel droplets touched Shiki they exploded. Every single one of them. In other words, Shiki was currently surrounded in a 2 way attack. One was the various iron limbs covered with haki he had to fight in all 4 directions, and the explosive iron rain from above.

"Shihahahaha You are stronger than I thought kid. But this is now over" said Shiki, and suddenly the whole island began to shake.

"An earthquake? But we are in the middle of a calm belt! How is this possi-" the next moment, Shiki grabbed Logan's head out of the clouds, and threw him in the ground.

"I am impressed. You are strong enough to go toe to toe with one of those navy admirals. Too bad I am much stronger. Now then spill the beans. How are you able to use the power of  multiple devil fruits at once?" asked Shiki in a serious tone.

"G-go to hell" 

"Shihahaha well then lets see how long you last!" said Shiki and started punching Logan again and again.

*clash* 

The next moment, someone attacked Shiki from behind, but he caught him with ease.

"What the hell? How are there 2 users of the steel steel fruit?" said Shiki confused, as he grabbed the steel blade arm of his attacker.

"Let Logan san go!" shouted the attacker, but Shiki instantly crushed him in the ground, and rendered him unconscious.

"Paro!"

"If I remember right, you have a village you want to protect here right? So are you going to talk now, or after I destroy that village?" asked Shiki, as he held Paro by his head, and slowly began to apply pressure.

"Alright Alright. I will do as you say. Just don't harm anyone here" said Logan, and Shiki let go of them both.

"Good call. Now get started. How did you eat multiple devil fruits, and how are there 2 devil fruit users of the same type"

"Actually I haven't eaten multiple devil fruits. I have only eaten 1 devil fruit, but it lets me temporarily use the power of other devil fruit users"

"I have never heard of a devil fruit like that before. Continue"

"I can borrow and store the powers of up to 10 users in total. And then activate any of them to use at my will. But there are conditions. I can only borrow the ability of someone who is completely loyal to me. The more loyal they are, the better" 

"Ouch. That is a terrible condition for me. Anything else?"

"Yes there are a lot of things you need to know. This devil fruit can be the weakest or the strongest in existence accordingly" 

Logan then detailed Shiki briefly.

'That is one hell of a devil fruit. I want it at all costs'

"That is all. Now just as you promised, please leave us alone" said Logan.

"Sorry kid, but now I want this devil fruit of yours, and for that to happen you need to die" 

And so, Shiki killed Logan there, and set on the quest to find that fruit for himself. But he knew that in order to use it, he would need people extremely loyal to him, so he decided to create his own kingdom. He then invaded the Skyandr island, created heaven and reformed society with him at the top, being worshipped as god. He then took in 12 newborn babies, and decided to raise them himself, forming his image as God in their mind. He considered this the most efficient way to ensure extreme loyalty.

Along the way, his crew came across the spirit spirit fruit, that has the ability to switch souls with the target. With that it was possible for him to get a new body and eat another devil fruit, since it was impossible to do so in his current body. The user of the spirit spirit fruit with get in Shiki's body, and explode due to it now having 2 devil fruits, and resultant Shiki will gain a new body with no devil fruit and was now free to eat a new one.

For that, Shiki chose the most promising kid out of the 12, and has been training him personally for 20 years to make a body perfect for him. All in all, if Shiki's plan succeeds, he will have strength on par, or even surpassing that of his prime, on top of a devil fruit that could be matched with no other. He will become the strongest creature in existence, who could not be defeated by any force in the world, not even the pirate king in his prime himself.
