[b]Nikko - East Blue - Starter Island[/b][/center]

[i]- "Gold Roger's beginnings were humble. Like most pirates he was not immediately wealthy, or immediately all-powerful. In fact, on the day he started out, he didn't even possess a ship. So, he set out to get one. Leading him, to Starter Island. Not a true island like many others, but rather an artificial one. Once upon a time, a ship builder wanted to build his ships in the wide open ocean, so that they would be of the best quality and unlike any others. Soon, other shipwrights saw this, and wished to do the same. In the end, the collection of workshops, all eventually merged into one. Becoming Starter island, where almost all ships in the East Blue could trace their origins back to. 

Gold Roger did not buy a ship. In his first bounty, he stole one."

He closed his notebook, and let out a deep sigh. The click of his notebook filled the air, and a smile drifted up along his lips. Nikko's heart was racing, despite this... He wasn't on steady ground. After all, he was standing on a tiny sailboat, that drifted slowly towards the horizon. On that horizon was a monstrous thing. A massive collection of boats and wooden docks that seemed to go on forever. Massive crane loomed in the distance, used to pick up and drop each of these behemoths into the water. 

From a pair of binoculars, Nikko gazed out at each ship. As if trying to decide which one he wanted to reach out and take for his own. If he was going to write about the Pirate King, he might as well repeat his actions. That was the best way to get into the mindset of the pirate king after all, right? 

[b]BUMP![/b] Nikko nearly fell off his boat as it struck land. That wooden frame connecting with one of the many docks that seemed to stretch for miles. Stepping off, he turned his head to figured out just how to tie his ship up... Only to see it spring a leak, and sink to the bottom of the ocean. Oh well.
