The soft sway of the boat and the smell of salt in the air were the first things Yuta noticed as he stirred awake. His body ached slightly, but his senses were sharp enough to pick up the hum of voices nearby.
"Who is this guy?" a gruff voice asked, laced with confusion.
"He just fell from the sky!" another chimed in, disbelief evident.
"Oi, are you sure he's alive? He doesn't look like one of ours," a third voice added, grumbling.
Yuta groaned, slowly sitting up. As his vision cleared, he saw several large men surrounding him, each with a unique presence. Their conversations were loud, casual, yet tinged with an underlying tension.
"Hey, quiet down," Marco's calm yet firm voice broke through. "He's awake."
Yuta blinked, looking at the crowd. Then, a realization hit him like a tidal wave. The blonde-haired man with pineapple head, the massive figure with a crescent-shaped mustache at the far end of the deck—he was on the Whitebeard Pirates' ship.
"Back to one piece this quick… strange.." But he didn't voice it and started acting.
"Where… where am I?" Yuta asked cautiously, his voice hoarse.
"You're on the Moby Dick," Marco replied, folding his arms. "You fell out of the sky and landed right in the middle of our deck. Mind explaining yourself?"
Before Yuta could respond, another pirate interrupted. "We don't have time for this! Just leave, he don't have time!"
"That's right," another agreed. "We're preparing for battle, Marco. We can't babysit some random sky-faller."
Whitebeard, who had been silent so far, let out a booming laugh that silenced the crew. "Gurararara! Calm down, all of you!" His deep voice was commanding yet kind.
He turned his sharp gaze toward Yuta. "Boy, who are you and how come you landed on Moby Dick, explain…" Whitebeard asked.
Yuta was shocked until now, how come he directly fell on top of Whitebeard's ship ?
It even took him some time to come to deal with the current situation he was in but then he calm himself down.
'This is what I wanted, why worry…' Yuta shook his head, this was exactly what he was aiming for all this time, he wanted to meet Whitebeard so that he can learn shock power from him.
"I didn't intent to come here, but I was looking for you nonetheless…" Yuta started, looking at Whitebeard with intent.
Whitebeard narrow his eyes, now sure what he was thinking but the situation was tense for sure.
Yuta could feel it that this was not just becuase he fell from sky out of nowhere, there was something else going on.
"And why you were looking for me ?" Whitebeard asked with cold tone.
"To learn from you…." Yuta didn't care about the tone, he reply and then got up. Its better to show him then to explain the situation.
"Gurarararrarararara….." Whitebeard laugh and increase his pressure on Yuta. Not believing what Yuta told him.
But before he could say anything, Yuta got up and make a fist. Making the situation even more tense. If not for the Observation haki, others didn't notice that Yuta had no bad intention, they would have long taken action.
Whitebeard also just stood there, waiting for what Yuta was about to do, but the next second him including everyone else were frozen on their place becuase a golden Halo appear on Yuta's hand.
Though the colour was different, there was no mistaking it that this was the same power as Whitebeard, the power of shock.
"This …. How is this possible.
"Gurararararara… an interesting boy."
Yuta slightly move his fist and hit the air, instantly crackling the air around his fist, clearing everyone's doubt that this was indeed the power of shock fruit.
"As you can see, I have similar power as yours. I want you to teach me how to use this power well…" Yuta said, his eyes still glaring at Whitebeard.
"This is impossible, dad don't listen to him, he must have done some trick here. There is no way two people can have similar devil fruit power."
"Boy, who are you, tell us honestly or don't bother leaving the ship alive…"
The threats keep on coming but Yuta didn't care, ultimately it has to be Whitebeard's decision, it depends on him what he do.
"Gurararara… interesting kid, tell me why you think I should teach you." Whitebeard asked, though he was interested in knowing how Yuta had the same power as his but he didn't bother asking about that.
"Becuase you are the only one who can… "
"Get lost…" Whitebeard said with annoyed face.
"No can do, you teach me or I will stay here and won't move…" Yuta said with determination on his face, there is no way he is letting this chance slip from his hand.
"Just pick him up and throw him out of the ship… " Someone shouted, and many people started to move towards him.
Yuta remained there, not moving. Glaring at Whitebeard. He didn't even move until those members of the Whitebeard pirates carry him to the edge of the ship and was almost ready to throw him out.
Whitebeard who wasn't giving attention to Yuta, finally look at him at the corner of this eyes, everyone knew that devil fruit users can't swim, but even now the boy was not resisting. He remain there no moving.
'Give up ?' He wondered.
But soon he lost interested, right now he didn't had time to waste on that kid. And soon he was thrown out of the ship.

As it was nearing 3 minutes, Whitebeard finally spoke.
"Marco, take that kid out, leave him to the nearest island."
"Yes…" Marco was about to go and pick up Yuta, only to find that Yuta was swinging along side with Moby dick, not drowning.
Dad, look at this, that guy, is ins't drowning. He's swiming along side Moby dick…"
"What, how's that possible, ins't that guy a devil fruit power. What's going on."
"Whitebeard's who already lost interest in Yuta also turn to Marco who said this with disbelieve look plastered on his face.
"Gurarara… interesting kid indeed."
