Serious: Haru Nenji's Duels Chapter 4: Journey at Jaya AND Luke Grantz's Investigations Chapter 1: What happened in Skypiea?

Miyu was glad to hear the doctors voice.
She hadn't wanted to answer the question. She hadn't wanted to tell him that actually, she'd be better off staying on the ground.
She stormed out of the house and waved at him over enthusiastically.
"Doctor! Over here!"

Hayato slowly approached Miyu. he stared at her then at the others with his bored lok. hands in his lab coats, 'Finally."

Luke then asked the shaman directly. Can a ship withstand the power of the water that goes up? doesn't it destroy the ship?

The shaman then smiled at Luke. You know a lot boy. There is an alternative. Get the Rim Elm Wood. It can withstand the force of the water

hayato stepped inside the room and stared at the elderly male and luke. The poison user merely blinked as he glanced at them. He raised a cigeratte and lit it up in his mouth

Miyu took a deep breath before following the doctor back inside.
"Sorry, what were you guys talking about?"
She was smiling, but it was fake. Her head was aching and she was staring to ask herself just what she was doing here.

Luke touches his glasses and spoke Let me explain. You see there are times that the water that bursts out from the sea is sometimes bigger,larger faster and stronger than the ordinary bursts. That phenomena occurs every 6 months and happens to be the last burst in the 6 months. Unfortunately the last burst of water will happen. To cut things short, Ordinary ship can't withstand the force of the water. Instead we will use different wood to support the ship

Miyu nodded.
That explanation had only made her headache worse, but she knew it was important, so she memorised it well.
"I understand. And just how do we get this wood?"

Hayato watched them interact with one another. He placed his hands in his pockets, 'Just one question. How are we suppose to find this burst of water? Hm tell me that."

Luke then looked at Hayato and sighed. Where you can find it? Are you blind or something? It was a huge burst of water that came during the earthquake. It was as big as this island and it happened a moment ago. Don't ask some stupid questions Luke then looked at Miyu. The Rim Elm Wood can only be located at a store in Mock Town. Unfortunately it is a price for winning a fighting tournament though

Hayato stared at him with a bored look, "My question is where exactly do you plan to go with the stream though. "

Luke just stared at him You sure don't listen much do you. Everyone except you know that it is the Sky Island

Hayato glared at him, 'I figured as much. But exactly how much time is left before the knock up stream is released once more just may i ask hm? An hour a day? A week?"

"Please don't argue!"
Miyus voice sounded sharper and more annyoed than usual.
"I'm sure it'll all make sense with time!"
Her voice soothed a little again.
"Right now we have to take care of that wood first. Then we can look for that stream."

Hayayo then looked at Luke, 'Also you should be informed i wasn't here for the entire conversation."

Luke was like picking up a fight with Hayato. He laughed. You don't have to look for it. If it bursts up you can find it. It is big after all. Luke then steps outside and heads for the town.

Miyu quickly followed Luke.
"I'm sorry, he isn't like this normally..."
It felt wrong to apologise for her crewmate to an enemy.
She had to work on her authority if she ever wanted the crew to respect her as their vice captain.
"So this Mock town you were talking about... Is it the town we were in earlier?"

Luke nodded. It is quite a wealthy town but actually it is most filled with pirates. There is a shop there that does not only take money. Rim Elm Wood costs 250 000 000 Beli. But winning in a tournament can get those wood

"Oh... the fighting tournament, no?"
Miyu didn't want to go on, but she knew she had to.
"And as I am right now the captain of the crew, I guess I'll have to be in it..."

Just about in a short while they reached the shop. It is like a large old warehouse. But suddenly they heard a voice "And that finishes the singles match! We have a champion! Moving on to the 2 on 2 matches. Fighters please register now! . It was coming from inside. Looks like we must team up. Let's go Miyu

Miyu looked at him.
Team up? With someone from the government?
That just couldn't be right. She should take someone from the crew!
Just as she wanted to tell him that, she remembered that he hadn't given her any reason to mistrust him so far.
And didn't she always want to be on good terms with the government?
"Okay...."
She murmured and walked into the house. She wondered what would await them there.

Luke then thought of something as they enter. He then spoke to Miyu I thought of something that somehow to lessen your mistrust to me Luke then transformed into Haru. He didn't returned Haru's Swords yet. Round 1 was beginning and a couple of knife user were their enemies.

Miyu sighed.
She had fought knife users so many times before.
"Look, if you two give up now, then we won't have to harm you..."
Fighting alogside Haru yet knowing that it was actually Luke gave her a creepy feeling.

Luke, who was good at acting, started to move like Haru. He grabbed a sword and tried to attack one of the men. The men just smiled and spoke Wind Force! Suddenly a huge force of wind knocks out Luke. Luke then turned to Miyu and winked at her Be careful Miyu-chan!

Why did they always have to fight?
Wasn't there a peaceful solution to this?
Of course there wasn't! There had never been.
Her arms turned into smoke quickly. She wanted to end this before anyone got hurt.
"White out!"
A large cloud of cloud filled the room. She was careful not to engulf Luke with it.

Then the other man smiled Oh you could do that too? Smoke come forth Then smoke came out of his arms and targeted Miyu
