❅ Dino D Tsukishima ❅ ❅ Lieutenant |-|  0 |-| Z-00 Crew |-| Swordsman Class |-| Gomu Gomu no mi ❅ ❅ "Disappointing...I had expected more." ❅ Dino stared apathetically at the three Humandrills, he was close, he could feel it..just a few more adjustments and he would get this technique, thankfully the Humandrills couldn't hold him off long enough to let him practice it, so he could finish learning it within the battle hopefully. His hands blurred forward, bounding forward then backwards, bouncing rather harmlessly off the monkeys, he groaned stomping the ground in anger at another failure to complete his technique.

❅ Dino D Tsukishima ❅ ❅ Lieutenant |-| 0 |-| Z-00 Crew |-| Swordsman Class |-| Gomu Gomu no mi ❅ ❅ "Disappointing...I had expected more." ❅ Arms blurred forwards and backwards, launching towards the monkeys as Dino stood firmly, his rubbery arms snapping back and forward from the Humandrills to his body, he figured out why the technique wasn't working, but he couldn't fix it for some reason, he was just not bringing his arms back fast enough to launch them out again, the Humandrills simply batted his arms aside, the power behind them not enough to damage them when they impacted against their armor.

❅ Dino D Tsukishima ❅ ❅ Lieutenant |-| 0 |-| Z-00 Crew |-| Swordsman Class |-| Gomu Gomu no mi ❅ ❅ "Disappointing...I had expected more." ❅ Dino felt a metaphorical light ignite in his head, as he finally realized the issue behind his technique, with every launch of his arms he overextended the length of them, causing the speed of them bounding back to be reduced slightly, resulting in his lack of both speed and power. He stepped backwards, his arms blurring forward, seeming to slam repeatedly into the Humandrills, causing small craters to appear on both their armor and chests, launching them backwards as the rain of hits finally stopped.

Haru yawned loudly and scratched his head. He reached out and confirmed that his Katana was there next to him. With that settled he got out of his pallet and went through stretches. All of them were based on loosening his muscles from after sleep; starting with his hands, and going down to his shoulders and neck to his torso, and finishing with his legs and feet. With that done he sat down for a few hours to meditate and train in what was called Haki by the marines. He had his Katana out on his lap while he sat there and tried to stretch his senses to their max.
He emerged from the ship, his blade at his hip, his jacket still folded sitting next to his large container and collection of blades. His gi swayed in the wind as did the hair on his topknot. He breathed evenly while taking in his surroundings with his eyes, ears and nose. He moved then heading down the plank onto the island proper and decided to find something to train with.

❅ Dino D Tsukishima ❅ ❅ Lieutenant |-| 0 |-| Z-00 Crew |-| Swordsman Class |-| Mondai Mondai no mi ❅ ❅ "Disappointing...I had expected more." ❅ Dino shrugged his shoulders, staring down the three Humandrills that decided it was funny to try and steal one of his swords. He didn't take kindly to this of course, being a swordsman meant dedication to the blades, to have one stolen was a dishonor to the sword itself. He dashed forward, he lifted one of his sheathed blades, watching one of the Humandrills as he did so. He launched forward, unsheathes his Katana, slashes the humandrill rapidly across the body, and then sheaths the sword slowly, a arrogant smirk on his face until he realized most of the slashes missed his target. He cursed at this fact and crossed his arms over his chest, being launched back by a rather rough hit from the Humandrill.

Aomi surfaces near the ramp of the ship leading to the island. "Haku keep the other alive while i'm away i have some errands to run near marine HQ" She yelled up to her vice admiral before diving back into the sea and swimming away. With her speed it wouldn't be long before she reached her destination.

Haru looked over his shoulder at where the Admiral had been only a moment before. "I understand." He said to himself. He quickly started to walk into the island looking for the first of the Z-00 crew around. One of the Humandrills attempted to attack him. It dropped from above, a glaive in its hands. He drew his Katana and sheath to block. He held it up with one arm and the glaive came down upon it, and he didn't move, but held the animal up with his weapon suspended in the air as they made contact. The humandrill flipped backwards with the glaive and attempted to skewer him while coming to the ground. Haru moved his wrist and blocked the glaive off to his right, and continuing to spin it out of the humandrils hands. The beast landed and glared at him, to which Haru only started back at it, his eyes still slits. He started to walk forward and passed the humandrill with a pat on the head. "Keep trying. You'll get there some day." He said before putting his sheath and blade back into the sash at his waist.

Haru kept walking, the humandrills seeing that he wasn't interested in sparing leaving him alone for the time being. He eventually wandered enough to run into Dino training. He stood there for a second and just watched the other swordsman train. He leaned against a tree and folded his arms in front of him, but also kept it so he was pressing his katana to the tree so that if someone tried to steal it, it would be harder to do so.

He looked out of the corner of his eye, seeing Haru he spoke. "Yo Haru, what's up man?" He spun, blocking the strike of a Humandrill's mace with the sheathed blade in his hand. He unsheathed it, slashing the Humandrill four times, before sheathing his blade, causing the monkey to stumble backwards and make it's strange noises towards him. He shrugged lunging forward once again, unsheathing his Katana, he attempted to slash the monkey all over, smirking when he noticed that it finally worked, and the humandrill fell over unconscious. "Damn man, these things are strong as hell."

Aom jumps out of the water onto the ramp and walks into the island. She could tell Haru had gone to meet up with Dino she decided share the good news. She strolled through the humandrill jungle all the humandrills here avoided her excet for the troop leader. "I'm back, the gentle demon just got a new home in impel downs" she said to Haru as she approached.

He grabbed one of his other 8 blades, holding both swords parallel so that the tips are pointing to his right or left side, he went to go towards the Humandrill only to grunt when the blades slipped, stabbing into the ground under when he slipped. "s**t..that was close." He twitched, glaring at the monkey that was standing in front of him.

Haru briefly nodded to Dino when he spoke to him but just kept silently watching him train himself. He turned back to the Admiral now that she had returned and with the interesting news she had brought. "He is in impel down then?" He asked in a casual voice. Haru almost never betrayed emotions in his body language or actions. "I think i'm going to go train now." He said before turning his back on her and walking deeper into the forest until he could find a spot on his own.
Nearer the other side of the island he had one of the leader humandrils with him and was having him attack so that Haru could practice dodging with the least amount of effort. The humandrill attacked and Haru attempted to bend his body just enough to dodge but no more, but still ended up getting hit in the arm. "Damn, that hurts quite a lot..." He said very casually still, even though his arm hurt. This training was going to take him quite a while to accomplish.

❅ Dino D Tsukishima ❅ ❅ Lieutenant |-| 450,000,000 |-| Z-00 Crew |-| Swordsman Class |-| Mondai Mondai no mi ❅ ❅ "Disappointing...I had expected more." ❅ Dino frowned, glancing at the Humandrill before him, the monkey was staring at him with what almost seemed to be a cocky smirk, hopping about from one leg to the other as it made it's strange noises, dancing around Dino whilst it hopped. It was rather infuriating to think that this..stupid looking beast was causing Dino so much trouble, he was supposed to be a good swordsman, but yet this monkey was making a fool out of him by just dancing about like an idiot. He grit his teeth, attempting to keep his anger down before he did something he would regret, something that could harm both himself and possibly some of the other crew members if he wasn't careful. He took up his stance once again two swords held parallel so that the tips are pointing to his right side, he stared blankly at the Humandrill before lunging forward, swinging the two swords as he stepped, slashing through the monkeys side, he made sure not to kill the beast, simply because he was considered a type of crew member since their captain seemed to love them so much.
