105 One wasn't enough

"What.. Those stupid dragons killed Ace.. I am going to kill them."

"Who are these dragon bastards... Come and I will face them alone. Great Captain Usopp will kill them all."

Both Usopp and Luffy were agitated seeing Ace die. They were looking forward for a great adventure for Ace and they were sure that these dragons were never shown before when they had visited their own worlds. Hermione's world had dragons but it was very rare in her world and they were in heavy control.

"Calm down. The story hasn't ended." Ken said as he already could recognize what the story was about. And it was true, the story didn't end there. Luffy and Usopp were sad because the death of Ace meant that he wouldn't get any new cool powers but it was nothing like that.

The brother of Ace was obsessed with bringing his brother back to life and he did everything possible to do so. And at the end his elder brother was successful. The boy came back to life. but now he was different.

He had less emotions and almost became like a robot. Seeing no way out, his elder brother did a very different thing. He took his brother and left it under the care of a dragon.

And the name of the dragon was Igneel. Yup, that small child was none other than Natsu Dragneel, One of the Dragon Slayer. The story went on just like the original story. Natsu was taught all of the fire dragon magic and was raised to be a Dragon Slayer. And he wasn't the only one, he became friends with Wendy, Sting, etc.

But life wasn't as pleasant. Aconologia, another dragon slayer had been killing dragons all over the continents and in order to defeat him, Natsu was thrown to the future where Igneel and the otehr dragons hoped that their children would be able to defeat Acnologia.

This was a long story but there was one thing very consistent of the story, the power of friendship. This meant that even in the most hopeless situations Natsu would get a power up and defeat his enemy. Usopp and Luffy were so happy seeing this that they even shed a bit of tears.

"What are you crying for?" Ken was annoyed by this.

"Baka this is tears of happiness. It means we can defeat our enemies too if we have a purpose."

'Power of friendship isn't going to save you when Kizaru arrives.' Ken had this thought but didn't speak it out loud. The story of Natsu went on and finally it was revealed that he himself was the END and the curse of Zeref.

Later everybody's mind was blown when it was revealed that Dragon Slayer magic could actually make someone a dragon by the process of dragonification. Of course, later Igneel who was sealed inside the body of Natsu came forward and said that it will never happen as he had stopped the process when he was sealed inside.

This is was great story from the point of view of Luffy and Usopp as this story portrayed so much adventure as these two often craved for and they got to see such huge powers of Natsu, Zeref and even Acnologia who was menace for hundreds of years.

Later with much help from other Dragon slayers he was able to defeat Acnologia and everyone cheered when they saw that. With that Ace was done with the character and was brought back to the real world

[

Second character of Portgas D. Ace - 60% complete. All the negative effects of dragonification and illness to travel in carriages or ships had been removed

]

When Ken heard the notification of the system he was jealous. The two min problems of Dargon Slayers were their notion sickness and losing themselves when they were fully dragonified. But apparently the system had removed it, which meant that he could easily become a dragon like Acnologia and keep the sanity. This was a huge cheat for Ace.

"Welcome back Ace."

Ace looked different when he was back to the real world. Under his eyes there were already signs of dragonification and even his hands had signs of scales on that. Though Ace wasn't emitting any fire, his body felt extremely hot.

Magic was really powerful!

"Thank you Ken."

"You don't have to care about the problem of dragonification and the bad affects of the curse. You can change yourself into a dragon when you complete the character or meet certain percentage. And if you really want to thank me then go back to the place you came from."

"You know I can't do that."

Ken was ready to reprimand Ace with more insults, when he heard a sound from the system.

[

Monkey D. Luffy had completed his character.

]

Ken stiffened when he heard that. He didn't expect that another brother too had completed the character and that too on the same time when Ace got a new character.

"Luffy did you finish your character?"

"Hai.. All these excitement made me feel that now I have full control of Hiruzen's power... Shishishishi.."

"What you completed too? When will be my time?"

"Don't worry Usopp.. I completed it after years. I am sure you will faster than me."

Though Usopp could understand what Luffy meant but he still felt a bit down.

"Seems like my brother has grown up.. hahahah." Ace was happy seeing his brother complete the character at the same time as him. This was a great news.

"Luffy do you want to go for your own adventure?"

"Of course!"

'System give the second character to Luffy'

Simulating a new character for subject Monkey D. Luffy

..

Simulating..

..

Character chosen.

]

They were back at the system space and Luffy vanished from his spot. He was really happy to see himself again going for an adventure. It had been a long time since he had last gone for himself and now it was that time again.

The story opened with a young child in the rain crying. The child had overgrown spiky hair, wore a white shirt and a half pants. The child also had a dark green sleeping eye mask on his head. He looked really sad in the rain until an old man came and said

"Don't be sad. In times like these you gotta stand tall and smile big. You will be able to go to school soon..."
