You were still trying to get used living alone. You always check the newspaper for updates since you still have no idea what timeline you were in. Since thier is no bounty on Luffy's head there was a chance he hasn't set sail yet or still started his journey.

You were thinking about becoming a swordwoman because you didn't want to keep depending on your devil fruit all the time. You were pretty lucky since you saw a little girl talking about her dad being a samurai and that her dad was from Wano but move away because he fell in love with her mother and build a restaurant together.

You took the opportunity to meet that samurai to ask him to train you.

Your Pov:

It took me awhile to find the restaurant the girl was talking about. It was pretty empty since it was early but I went it

" Can't you see that were not open yet? " The man glare at me. Before I could say anything else he tried to push me out.

" Wait" I yelled to get his attention which it did because I felt like I yelled a little bit too loud because the people that was walking by was staring at me.

" Oh, so it's you. The deaf girl artist that people has been talking about " The said as he look at me more annoyed. To my surprised he let me for some reason.

He let me sit down by the bar and then called someone. A beautiful woman came in from the backrooms and she look happy seeing me. I could tell he was his wife and it was pretty reasonable that he left Wano for her.

" I'm surprise to see you here. I really love your art work that I even bought one from a friend " I was quite that the woman bought my art from someone else when I usually gave a my art work for free.

" I usually gave out my art to musician for free when they visit the island. I would gladly draw for you " I feel bad that she scammed by her " friend" because I thought people knew by then I gave it for free to musician.

" Your too kind... Is there a way I could repay you ? " I felt like the woman wouldn't take no for an answer but it was good my chance getting train by him was high.

" I hope you don't mind but I heard that a samurai is here and I would like him to train me " I nervously move my hand because I could feel the glare of her husband behind my back.

The woman looked at her husband with puppy dog eyes and he agreed

Your Pov:

Just by that I could accept and he wasn't going easy on me at all. I guess he was waiting for me to give up but I didn't because I knew this hard work will pay off one way or another. It was always midnight when I was done with my training and I felt like my soul is leaving my body on how much he wrote the down the things I needed to do and left.

" Why do you want to learn so badly? " He wrote down on a piece of paper, probably was force by his wife.

" Because I can't always depend on my devil fruit to save me " I reply he started writing down once again

" Show it to me " And I did. I from water in my palm and created a bunny which hop off my hand and went to the samurai

" So you ate the Mizu Mizu no mi fruit. Don't tell you had an idea about blending your devil fruit power into a katana... " I nodded and he hit me in the head with a wooden katana that I used to train.

" Are you stupid!? " He yelled at me and scolded me but I look away so that I can't know what he was saying.

He went back inside and lock the doors....so much for trying to be like Giyuu or Tanjiro if they can do it so can you. You laid by a tree to sleep since you were too tried to go home.

The next day

" They look so cute " The little girl thought to herself before she tap your shoulder. You open your eyes and say the girl holding a plate of onigiri. She was talking but couldn't make up what she was saying since you were half awake.

" Eat " Then she place the plate of onigiri in your lap and it was still hot so you enjoy your breakfast.
After breakfast you read again the paper the samurai gave you yesterday and started training.

Once you were done you made a slime from your power and order it gather some sticks so that it could a target for you to practice. You sat on ground while waiting for it to be done.

" That's so cool! Can I touch it!? " The girl yelled but you couldn't hear her. So she grab pieces of paper with her because she didn't know that about sign language.

" Can I touch it? " Was written on a paper and she gave it to you. You look at the girl that has star in her eyes which reminded you of Luffy.

" Sure just wait till it's done building my target " You smile as you ruffle her hair since she was cute.

The slime that you made was finally done the girl step aside with the slime in her hands. You hold your wooden katana that was attached to your hip.

" The slime has to go because I'm about to use one of my technique " You look at the girl who seem quite sad. " Don't worry I will let you play with it once I'm done". The girl nodded since she was excited about the technique you were about to do.

You took a few steps back and took a deep breath as you slowly active your devil fruit power. You ran towards the target as your wooden katana was forming one of the water breathing form from demon slayer. You slice the target into pieces. The little was so amaze about what you did.

You saw the samurai walking towards you with a bottle of sake in his hand. " You know that idea of yours would only work on wooden sword. If you held a real one you would just destroy it". You sigh as you held out the wooden katana towards him. " Touch it" The samurai touch and it was dry not a single drop of water was on it.

" I'm quite impressed....it seems like you control that devil fruit of yours quite probably. You really talent for someone your age. " The samurai said.

_______

Since that day he started training you even harder that he also made you clean the restaurant and do cooking duty.... You sometimes think that you were doing his job while he just drank sake. You didn't mind since you have to repay thier kindness by helping them like they helped you.
