Boss Info:

Ike was laying in his hammock when he felt the need to get up and go eat or do something more interesting than sitting around doing nothing. When he got up and checked his backpack he saw something he hasn’t seen for quite some time now. Inside of his backpack was a map he took from a group of bandits from Karate Island, but he couldn’t really remember who he took it from or what it really was. However, his eyes scanned the map and in bold letters he noticed that the map was for Illusia Island in the West Blue and fortunate enough for him that was exactly which island he was on.  

He smiled as he chuckled amused with his luck as he started to put the map away. Before he stepped out he realized he wasn’t even fully dressed and ran back to his things so he could get dressed. Ike put on his black capris that fit him very well, his signature red sleeveless zip up hoodie with the crews jolly roger imprint on it, and his sandals. However, instead of having it zipped up he left it unzipped due to how humid it was outside; and this in turn revealed his robust body type. It was only natural for him to be a somewhat muscular athletic. Grabbing the map and finally walking out of the sleeping quarters it was time to find someone who was willing to come with him. Sitting on top of infrastructure on the ship he waited for someone to walk by, and that someone was Liara. Stretching his neck his head was now eye level with Liaras’, “hey, want to go on an adventure with me” he smiled as he asked in a carefree tone as he chuckled a bit.    

WC: 299

The young pirate smiled at her response it definitely didn’t mean no, so his neck snapped back to its original length before he jumped down from where he was sitting at. He pulled out at a map as he handed it to Liara for her to read and look at before he pushed it down so he could make eye contact with the red haired women. “The best part is that it’s on this island”, he said with enthusiasm as he laughed again before strapping his backpack fully to his back looking ready to start heading out. He didn’t really mind what the map lead them to but he was more interested with the journey along the way and making special moments with people.

After letting her look at it some more he stuck his hand out for the map so he could put it away and start heading out to where the map would lead the duo. “So you wanna come with me?” he said in a carefree manner as placed the map back in the safety of his backpack. He then looked off in the distance observing the different boats that inhabited the dock and the many different people that were interacting with one another. He then turned his attention back to Liara gazing into her eyes as his light hazel hues stared into her brown hues before he became a bit nervous after feeling like he was staring for to long.

It was a little awkward with the intense gaze that he gave her, but luckily thanks to his darker pigment it would be much harder to realize that he was blushing. However, that was the opposite for Liara when she looked away Ike noticed she was blushing a little. Normally he would do something dumb like ask why was she blushing or something along those lines, but he decided to just keep it to himself. Suddenly a breeze would past by the docks causing Ike’s dreads and unzipped sweater to blow in the wind gracefully. His sleeveless hoodie when then gently touch his skin as he could feel the soft fabric set back onto his torso region. Liara smiled at him as she gave him conformation that she indeed would like to travel with him; who wouldn’t mind going on an adventure and possibly getting paid?

“Yosh! Let’s head out!”, Ike stated in a very enthusiastic tone as both of his arms shot up into the air with closed fist before having them back to his side again. The two started to walked across the weary deck due to the recent scuffle with the Marines, and it wasn’t until now that Ike realize that the ship needed to be repaired. But, that could wait because it can still function just fine. The duo started to make their way towards from the docks that was inhabited by many sailors and fishermen and towards the city to get closer to the forest.

Suddenly a mysterious sound could be heard from Ike. It sounded like a dark demon screeching as it creeps through the darkness of the abyss. However, as terrifying as it sounded it was only Ike’s stomach that made the loud commotion, “I’m starving” he whined a bit as he grabbed his stomach. It was true, fighting those Marines despite having ate afterwards still could work an appetite, and apparently his last meal wasn’t enough. “Let’s get something to eat”, he said with excitement as he grabbed Liara’s hand trying to get her to quicken her pace through the city.

When Liara jumped back in response to his stomach rumbling he couldn’t help, but burst into laughter, “HAHAHA! Your to funny Liara!” he was starting to bring a little attention to himself. The other fishermen and shipman also looked unease at first too, but once it was confirmed it was only Ike’s stomach they also joined in on the laugh. This only caused him to smile as he laughed along with them enjoying the moment. The two walked at a quicker pace and went from the piers to the edge of the docks leading into the city were Ike could finally find a place to eat. It was only a matter of time until Ike spotted a food establishment, and he honestly didn’t care about what kind it was, as long as it served meat.

The building read in bold letters, “On The Wagon” and the sign displayed two wagon wheels that had metal covering behind the wheels that was made of wood; and they also was cleverly placed next to the sign to appear as a wagon. Not thinking much of the place, Ike, casually walked into the building and found the closet seat to the cook which was conveniently by the entrance. “Hey Gramps! Can I get some food? I need it bad”, he said enthusiastically as he was grabbing his eating utensils already ready to eat. “Whatcha’ want kid?”, the older man asked with a bit of chuckle since he probably never met a person like him before, and just as fast Ike replied with, “ Meat! Meat! Meat!” he said cheerful as he clanked his utensils together happily.

And shortly after ordering the cook arrived with a plate full of meat that was roasted to perfection and would cause any carnivore to drool over it. In addition, the cook placed a plate in front of Liara and gave her a friendly wink, “it’s on the house; it’s todays special” he spoke in a stern but playful voice as he went back to cooking. “How lucky are you?”, he stated as he grinned at her as he started to stuff one piece of meat after another into his mouth. Suddenly a mysterious man stepped into the building but he was no ordinary man he was one Rob Coins goons, “Is that Robs’ man?”, “Isn’t he one of his top men?” and “He’s Darrion the Con” were phrases that could be heard throughout the restaurant.

Suddenly without noticing Ike accidentally swung his arm back when eating and unintentionally hit Darrion in the shoulder, “my bad man” he replied immediately after hitting him thinking little of it. The man known as Darrion couldn’t have some no name do that to him so in retaliation he smashed Ike’s head with the nearest bottle he could grab. In return Ike decked the man in the jaw and caused him to stagger and fall, “Hey! I told you I don’t want you bandits causing trouble leave before I call the Marines!” he yelled at the bandit, but he lacked confidence in his tone. He then turned his gaze to Liara and Ike, “I’m afraid I’m going to need to ask you to leave” he said sadly. Taking advantage this moment Ike realized he called that man a Bandit and he stole the map from some bandits so he could possibly be the people he is looking for. Running off that idea alone he looked over to Liara and back at the bandit, “quick grab him” he said running over to the bandit.

Liara quickly grabbed the man with Ike and ran out of the restaurant while the cook yelled at him to come back and pay for his meal. It took no time at all for the duo to beat the information out of the man and take a secret passageway into the Bandits hideout. The bandit complained through the whole trip to their hideout because he knew how cruel Rob Coins would be, but he didn’t want to be continuously beaten by Liara and Ike. It took them no time at all thanks to the bandit and showing them the alternative route up the mountains to their hideout. Their hideout was towards the top of the mountains and the base that held the hideout up was flat; making it very easy for traction.

“Stay here with the bandit”, Ike told Liara as he snuck into the backway of the hideout, and going by the information of the bandit their Captain room should be near the left. Sneaking around the compounds he saw two bandit grunts turning the corner away from his room and before they could make a noise he delivered a powerful punch and kick combo knocking them both out. Hearing the commotion their leader, Rob, walked out of his room with his hand wrapped around the hilt of the blade. “Whats all the noise?!”, he yelled out before he narrowed his eyes onto Ike, but at the point it was to late. Ike’s right hand had stretched ten feet behind him as it began to twist while it did so, “Gomu Gomu no Raifuru” his fist snapped into Robs chest with such force that it sent him crashing into his room. Making short work of his boss the remaining Bandits reacted to the massive sound of a building breaking and crumbling. Seeing their leader already beaten they surrendered quickly and offered Ike all the money they had stolen as a offering. After collecting the money Ike left with Liara back to the ship to add to their crews funds.
