Chapter 13: Enlightenment

When Jin woke up and exited the Moby Dick, he saw Luffy was running through Akainu's magma followed by the other White-Beard Pirates before Luffy was hurled into the water saved by Jimbei.

Jin knew that Luffy would fight the admirals as he asked Jimbei to throw him over the wall separating the Marines and Pirates.

<At the Same Time>

Kizaru got up and was angered so much that his very look could kill someone, he wasn't the only one as Doflamingo, who Jin beat earlier, wanted Jin to suffer and scream for forgiveness.

Followed by Kizaru, him and Doflamingo met Akainu and Kuzan, as they asked," WHERE'S THAT WHITE-HAIRED BRAT!!", both Doflamingo vowed that they would kill Jin the next time they met, however, they were disappointed to hear," That kid fainted after beating you Kizaru, he's unconscious".

<>

Jin knew it was almost time and so ran towards the wall, when he passed the other White-Beard Pirates, they were shocked that he was awake and moving so quickly and began to think that he was a, 'monster', before rushing in as-well.

Using the cover of the others, and the cannon fire the Marines rained down, Jin made it to the wall undetected, and began climbing Oar's Jr's body.

"OCEAN CURRENT SHOULDER THROW!", screamed Jimbei, as he darted Luffy over the wall using the water as cover as he appeared next to Oars.

BANG!

Luffy landed on his two feet as he breathed in heavily, before looking at Ace past the Admirals.

At this time, Jin emerged and appeared right next to Luffy and helped him up.

With Jin's clothes turned ragged, his scar formed by the Vice-Admiral's that etched from his shoulder to his waist, as-well as the scar formed by Kizaru were all clear to the Marines.

As soon as Jin appeared, Luffy was surprised, but when he saw Jin's serious face staring at their opponents, he knew now wasn't the time.

"YOUUU!!!", Both Doflamingo and Kizaru said as they stood next to Akainu and Kuzan looking oppressive.

The four of them together staring at Jin and Luffy was observed from all, as White-Beard said," That boy's as gutsy as his brother...and the other doesn't have a devil fruit but is that strong....", he said pondering on what level Jin could in the future.

Suddenly, Luffy jumped in the air sending a barrage of attacks at Akainu and Kuzan while Doflamingo and Kizaru attacked him at the same time.

Jin had gotten used to their fighting styles separately but not together, as whenever he tried to move away from Kizaru, he'd get trapped in Doflamingo's threads, as cuts were all over his body, but luckily they didn't in all the way.

He saw Doflamingo controlling their fight in the air, while Kizaru came in the middle sending a kick Jin's way. Something, however, seemed to have clicked, as Jin felt pain all over his body from previous fights coupled with the damage he was receiving now as his anger rose.

He could hear his own heart beating violently, but he wasn't having fun. He couldn't do anything and was getting angrier than he'd ever been before.

However, the fight stopped momentarily as the two sword-bearers were commanded to kill Ace, there and then.

"ACEEEE!", Luffy screamed, but it fell to deaf ears as Luffy watched Ace accept his fate as he closed his eyes.

Time seemed to have stopped...nobody moved...as the swords came down, but Jin knew Crocodile would save Ace, as he concentrated on his fight, he realised that Kizaru was momentarily pre-occupied by watching the sword come down to only stop as the sword-bearers died.

It was like Deja Vu as Jin knew he had to do his attack rapidly...but before he could try to lift his leg," Kid~ the same thing will not happen okay~", Kizaru said in a mocking tone as Doflamingo laughed in the background.

Noticing his chance was gone, Jin decided to anger them as they'd be more likely to slip up," Hey~ do you guys have no dignity...You, one of the Seven Warlords and you and Admiral of the Marines teamed up to face me, a 17 year old boy~", Jin said first looking at Doflamingo then Kizaru as he breathed heavily.

"Mental Games have no use on me, boy ah~", he said clowning Jin's attempt.

Seeing how he was gonna need to fight Kizaru again as Doflamingo went away to fight Crocodile, Jin spared no effort to restrain anymore.

<5 Minutes Later>

Oars Jr, lifted the pirates who were all on the Moby Dick over the now melted ice, over the other side of the wall, which meant they were one step closer to saving Ace.

White-Beard jumped off the platform of the Moby Dick and used his Devil Fruit, Gura Gura no Mi, to stop all the attacks directed towards him and his crew.

While this was happening Jin, was recovering from his, stopped-halfway Round Two with Kizaru, as Sengoku ordered him to come back just in case White-Beard came.

<>

Jin was fighting any Marine he saw, using every technique that he knew, while at the same time, improving them by using this war as his chance to grow stronger.

After he struck down a dozen marines, he looked over to see Luffy sprawled on the floor saying "Ace..", lowly with Kizaru above him. Jin was getting tired of seeing this guy's face and rushed over coming on his left , before digging his leg into the ground with foot tip while spinning attacking Kizaru's knees. After getting him kneeling, Jin jumped up, performing a front flip bringing the heel of his kicking leg down upon Kizaru, causing the ground to split,<Renewal Axe>.

With Kizaru sent crashing far away, Jin breathed heavily before turning to Luffy and saying,"Luffy...are you gonna give up? Because if you do I won't blame you", he said before he put Luffy's straw hat on his head, leaving his back turned to Luffy, Jin went forward towards the execution stand.

<>

'Ace...', Luffy thought as he recalled all the memories the two had when they were younger. 'Ace..', he continued to think about, clearly tired.

But when he felt his straw hat on his head, he opened his eyes to see Jin before he said," Luffy are you gonna give up? If you do I won't blame you". When Luffy heard those words, he suddenly gained newfound energy as he looked at back of Jin who was walking to the execution stand, cuts and scars all over his body .

It was then that Luffy rushed to Jin and ran with him as they struggled to reach to Ace with all the people in the way.

<>

Meanwhile, Akainu was busy fighting White-Beard and dealt a fatal blow, almost killing him. However, White-Beards Will-Power helped him stay up right as he swung crazily at the surrounding pirates.

Everyone helped White-Beard while Jin ran by myself as Luffy didn't have any more energy, he saw Garp sitting on a chair and knew he might have to fight him to reach Ace.

<>

At the same time, Luffy asked Ivankov to give him power to save Ace, as he begged much to dismay of Ivankov, before he gave Luffy the strength to keep going by using his Devil Fruit.

However, straight after he got the injection, Ace's execution was about to start until....

"DON'T DO ITTTT!!", Luffy shouted, knocking out all the weak-willed people unconscious using Conquerors Haki, shocking everyone present.

<>

Jin was running forward as he cleared the path ahead, as he crippled dozens of Marine's using Renewal Taekwondo. Soon he arrived at the execution stand, but was underneath it. Knowing what to do, he put all he had into his legs...

BOOOM!

Sounded as Jin flew upwards using enough force, just as he was about to reach the execution stand and land next to Ace, he was struck on his right by a fist aimed towards his torso, damaging his ribs in the process.

Jin knew who it is was, and knew he had to get rid of Garp before anything first.

"Hey old man...you value justice more than family huh? And here I thought you were someone who valued family~", when Garp heard this, he was angered and questioned," Don't talk like you know me kid! What right do you have?!".

Jin looked at Garp seriously before saying," All I know is...in the face of the war you would turn your back on your famil-", before Jin could finish, Garp sent a deadly punch towards him, Jin at the last second, as he turned around to see the clouds were affected by his attack.

Knowing he was someone who was offered the position of Admiral but refused many times, Jin knew that this was gonna be his hardest fight.

While they were in the air, Jin sent a downward kick delivered from high up and slammed it into Garp while he covered his leg in Haki,<Renewal Silla + Haki Hardening>...

CRACK!

Before Jin followed through with an upward kick before shifting his weight through his waist and delivered a kick sideways in relation to where Jin was standing, striking Garp in his temple before flinging him to the wall of the Execution Stand.

<Renewal Halla + Recoilless Taegeuk + Busoshoku Haki>.

<>

At the same time, Luffy was racing against time, and saw Jin in-front of him fighting Garp...Suddenly Garp disappeared and stood in-front of Luffy before he threw a punch at his face only to be blocked by Jin as he stated," Old man, your mine....Luffy go", Jin stated after he looked a Luffy, before appearing in front of Garp.

Subconsciously, something brew inside Jin as his eyes turned purple...unbeknownst to him of-course, before Garp smashed him away, revealing a look of annoyance towards Jin.

BANG!!!

Jin slowly rose and looked at Garp, he felt nothing and looked at him with those purple eyes before slowly getting into a different stance.

<Some time ago in MHA World>

Jin was training one day and remembered a set of techniques/martial arts that Jin Mo-Ri used when he used to read 'God of Highschool', the name was ,<Ssamsu Taekkyeon>, and had the same premise as,<Renewal Taekwondo>, but when used together they could change a battle for the better.

He tried to remember the techniques and trained in them whenever he had the time, but never had an opportunity.... until now....

<>

Jin's change in stance, didn't go un-noticed, as Garp looked at him with intrigue before focusing on their battle, for Jin to say," Expect the unexpected old man~".

Jin waited for Garp to move and move he did.... VOOSH!

Garp emerged in-front of Jin but he didn't have any time react as Jin jumped on-to his torso, kicking the back of knee, throwing him off balance before kneeing him in the face coating with Busoshoku Haki.

<Ssamsu Taekkyeon: Inward Trip + Busoshoku Haki>.

Garp hadn't seen this kind of technique before, but he didn't have any time to react as Jin followed through with an unthinkable move as...

Jin feinted a round-house kick and held his neck with his knee joint before using the momentum from the the fake roundhouse kick, flipping Garp 360° before pinning him on the ground.

<Ssamsu Taekkyeon: Roundhouse Kick and Scythe>

It wasn't over as Jin continued by completing a 180° spin sweep kick aimed at Garp's feet.

<Renewal Taekwondo: Lowest Hwechook>

Garp sent a punch straight at Jin after he stumbled, but missed as he could feel his wobbling from all the grappling techniques Jin was using before he vanished...

Only to emerge behind Jin, sending him flying through a building. Only for Jin to come out with a serious face as his white hair flowed in the air, as his now purple eyes shone in the light.

Garp knew he had to fight seriously, and so he covered his whole body in Haki...What he didn't know was that Jin was stalling for time as Luffy ran up to Execution Stand..

Jin readied his,<Ssam-su Taekkyeon>, before he said a few words, " Old man~ This Kick is going to send you away for a long time~", incurring the anger of Garp before he calmed down and analyzed Jin.

Jin inhaled air before arriving in front of Garp, sending countless punches at his body,<Renewal Taekwondo: Mach Punch + Busoshoku_Haki>. While Garp had his guard up after fending of all the punches, Jin stood on his left before rushing in, creating 3 after-images as they all delivered kicks at Garp,<Renewal Taekwondo: 3rd Stance Hwechook>, stunning him in place for a few seconds.

Before Jin said," Renewal Taekwondo: Recoilless Kick~", lowly with calm-ness on his face.

'So he's using the kick that he used on Kizura huh?', Garp thought but wait.....

Jin changed his stance mid-way and grinded his foot on the floor, combusting the air pressure as he collided on the ground, creating a Kinetic force on the ground before lifting his leg....as he GENERATED FLAMESS!!!!

"I told you old man...to expect the unexpected~", he said with a smile before saying.

"Ssam-su Taekkyeon Secret Technique: Fifth Degree Flame Murder!!", Jin shouted as the surrounding Marines and Pirates looked at him all thinking the same thing,' DEVIL FRUIT!', they were all wrong though as only Jimbei, the fishman, noticed it was a technique rather than use of a devil fruit.

BOOOFFFF! BANGGG!

Jin sent flames all around Garp....but he didn't stop there as when Garp came out completely covered in Busoshoku Haki and tattered clothes, he covered his leg in Haki as-well before raising his it. Garp thought it was going to be an attack on his torso based on Jin's trajectory, but he changed it mid-way as he placed his foot on Garp's head simply adding force pushing the 'Old man', downwards towards the ground, crashing him into the surrounding rubble...

<Ssam-su Taekkyeon: Push Kick>

"ACEE!", Jin heard as he looked away from Garp to see Luffy and Ace, together in the air, with Ace un-cuffed. As he looked over to see them running away, meaning that it was a success , Jin sighed and looked at Garp before saying," Old man it was fun~ I don't blame you and won't call you weak as I progressed a-lot in this fight thanks to you", he said with a smile waving at Garp.

<>

Jin saw White-Beard telling the White-Beard Pirates that he would be going to stay. After talking with his crew, they decided to listen to him.

Akainu looking at Ace called him weak for leaving White-Beard and in anger Ace charged in before.....

Right before Akainu melted Ace's innards, Jin came and grappled Akainu, as he bashed his knee coated with Haki in his face before throwing him off balance and sending him a couple meters away.

Ace thanked Jin as he didn't know what he was about to do and ran off with the White-Beard pirates and Luffy....leaving only White-Beard and Jin as they faced a now-awake Kizaru, Garp, Hawk-eye, Sengoku, Akainu and Kuzan.

White-Beard:" Aren't you going to leave too?", he asked Jin with a smile on his face.

Jin:" And let you take all the fun? Naah~", he said with a chuckle.

<5 Minutes Later>

Jin and White-Beard fought hard, but Black-Beard and his crew came... as he tried to fight them, he was stopped by the Admirals and soon watched a now dead White-Beard still standing like a mountain after his devil fruit was stolen.

Jin was saddened not because he knew him or anything, but because he wanted to fight him. He looked at Black-Beard with hate, but as the other White-Beard Pirates escaped with Luffy and Ace.

Jin was left standing against hundreds of Marines and 7 powerhouses.

He threw blow after blow, strike after strike. Strickened by anger at White-Beard's death over the hands of someone like Marshall D. Teach, who would use such scheming methods was what Jin hated the most.

After trying his hardest, Jin was arrested by the Marines and thrown into Impel-Down at the most secured level.

<>

At the same time, Luffy heard what Jin done for him and Ace and vowed that no matter were he was he'd always be apart of his crew.

In that, 2 years past by, Jin sat in his cell at Level 6, before he stretched and decided to go for a stroll. He broke his cell door and jumped up, hardening his Haki, he broke through the Sea-Stone Layer with his full power, sending a shockwave through the levels.

<After the War>

After Jin saved Ace's life and led them to escape after fighting against 7 extremely powerful individuals, Luffy still declared that his crew meet in 2 years, as he separated from Ace as he wanted to form his own crew.

After the War, Jin got his own wanted poster, which was at 800,000,000 Berries for beating Admiral Kizaru, Stalling Garp the Hero, Beating 5 Vice-Admirals and Beating Doflamingo.

As word went out, the other Straw Hat's wanted to know more about Jin because he helped Luffy, but were sad when he was said to be in Impel-Down.

<>

Since he's been in Impel-Down, Jin has been trying to improve his use of Haki the most, as he realised that he goes into some kind of 'Mode', and calls it 'the Balance' as he reaches a new level of power, when his eyes turn purple.

Jin looks manlier but hasn't grown in height standing at 5'11, compared to an ant to the Giant's of this world.

Anyway, Jin broke the layer separating Level 6 and Level 5 before doing the same to every single floor.

BOOOOM! BOOOOM! BOOOOM! BOOOOM! BOOOOOM! BOOOOOM!

Jin was surrounded by dozens of Marine's, as they all said, "T-That's Jin Katsuo, The White Dancer", they called him by his bounty name as whenever he's fighting, it's a fluid movement as his White Hair flows just like his techniques in the air.

<2 Minutes Later>

Jin left Impel-Down robbing a small boat as he left dozens of Marines on the floor in under 2 minutes.

<>

In the World Government Headquarters, word got out of Jin's escape, luckily he was the only who left Impel-Down as they immediately told news teams about his escape publishing his bounty of now: 875,500,200 Berries.

<>

Every where around the world saw the bounty increase and knew something happened. When they found out he broke out Impel-Down by himself, there was chaos, while in Sabaody Archipelago, Luffy can be seen laughing as he reads the news-paper with his crew....
