The descriptions that Bakuto heard of reverse mountain didn't do it justice. As he seen it, and as the White Pearl climbed up a mountain in a small water way that barely was enough for the ship to fit in. Going all the way up the water way then down. This was an amazing way to start ones journey into the grand line for sure. Defying the laws of the normal sea has fallen and going into the new rules and laws that the Grand Line follow. As the ship landed Bakuto was a bit distracted at first. Looking around with wonder, this is the most legendary ocean and Bakuto is getting to see this for himself. One of the things Bakuto wanted to do as he decided to take on the life of a pirate is too see things like this. See the legendary things within in the world. The journey has just begun but here was Bakuto getting excited at the beginning of everything on the grand line.

Quickly Bakuto was broken from his distraction of looking around when his captain talked to him. Bakuto looks towards Alesia then when she asked about the log pose he answers, "From what I know that is how it works. It will point at whatever Island we are going to first then we head over. From the stories I have heard, we are going to want to keep an eye on that or we might end of way off course. Also when we get to the first island. We may want to discreetly find out how long we have to stay on the island for the log pose gets locked onto the next island."

As Bakuto walked around the ship he stops in front of the prisoner still tied to the mast he then yells out, "So what are we doing with our new friend here? The sea is about to get more dangerous soon with the unpredictability with the Grand Line. If he gets loose we add another danger to the crew we have to worry about. Maybe we wait until we get to the first island to deal with him. Then again we also could stick him in a barrel and just throw him off the ship. Or just throw him off the ship, because we know for a fact he wont be able to swim." Bakuto looks down the tied up zoan type mostly to check to see if the ropes were still good so he doesn't escape just right yet before the crew or the captain figures out what they were going to do with him.

Watching as the two attacks collided, Bakuto had to brace himself as the sand that started to fly made it hard to see his Absol. He had to shield his eyes slightly to keep sand from getting into them. Fearing the worst out come when the dust and sand clears, but when it does clear and Absol is still standing tall. Bakuto couldn't help but crack a smile. When he saw Henri return his Diglett back to his pokeball he knew the battle was over.

Absol walked back over to Bakuto, who pulled out a pokeball then leans down to his Absol, "Need a rest buddy?" Absol pushes the center of the pokeball and the red light of the pokeball envelops Absol as it goes into its pokeball to have a bit of rest after that pokemon battle. Bakuto walked over and when he heard the praises for his strategy counter and attack with another attack. Bakuto then says in response to the praises for his attacks, "Didn't really have much choice. I did something similar against your Rhydon before and figured it might work again."

When he was presented the badge. Bakuto pulls out his badge case and opens it up currently empty as Bakuto takes the Ground badge the very first one that will be going into the case he smiles then says cheerfully, "My first badge awesome. But that battle did teach me one thing and that is that my pokemon and I both need to get stronger as we barely got by with just my current pokemon. As you said before if that Bulldoze would have connected with Absol then we would have been done there. Well I need to get to the pokemon center. My pokemon could use a good healing after that battle. Thank you for that amazing battle." After that if there wasn't much more Bakuto gets ready to leave to head back to the pokemon center to get his pokemon the proper rest and healing they need for after the gym battle.

The fire tactic worked Absol stopped when Diglet came back up. Bakuto knows that Absol used a lot of strength to keep the attack up as long as it did. This battle wasn't going to last longer Absol fought a Rhydon before this. Bakuto was thinking the Diglett would be a bit worn from all that digging in the hot sand. Which should still be heated up a bit. When Henri the gym leader declared the next attack bulldoze. This was much like how Rhydon came in for a horn attack except instead of a normal attack this was a ground one. Bakuto yells out, "Alright Absol meet that bulldoze with a full attack of your own. Charge in and use Psycho Cut and give it everything you got!"

Doing as it told to do, the horn like skin glows slightly pinkish white. Going full speed towards the on coming Diglett. The two attacks looking to collide at full force. Two moves colliding the psychic cutting move, and the ground bulldozing move. Absol putting everything into this attack to try and end the battle. Something has to give first but Bakuto wasn't sure if Absol would fail first or will he succeed against the smaller Diglett.

After setting sail on the White Pearl, Bakuto helped get the ship on the right way to head for reverse mountain to get onto the grand line. The place many journeys begin for pirates looking to conquer the greatest part of the sea. Bakuto gets to start the same journey as the rest of the crew of the White Pearl.

Since leaving the docks of Loguetown Bakuto did what he had to help get the ship ready for Reverse Mountain. While continuing his training to improve his skills and strengths. When the captain finally spoke up about Lowering the Masts they were arriving at Reverse Mountain. Bakuto was cleaning the deck of the ship, while carrying on his back a three crates worth of cannonballs. The moment he hears the captains orders. Bakuto drops the mop and takes the crates off his back. Quickly moving his shoulders finally some relief from his latest training method.

Sprinting to the masts Bakuto began adjusting sails and lowering them to the proper place to catch the winds. Trying to remember his marine knowledge about Reverse Mountain. It was a dangerous way to enter the grand line, but it was the only way for pirates to do so. Bakuto calls out once he remembers some important details, "We have to be careful, if we get on the wrong water current then we will be crashing into the rocks Captain!" Calling out the important details as Bakuto didn't want to start this journey with them crashing the ship on their first start onto the grand line. He was trying to think of ways he could help keep the ship on course. Thinking of what could be done, but right now, it was just steering the ship right and the Captain was the one steering the ship so there wasn't much he could do at the moment to help the ship get onto the grand line, except for tending to the sails.

With a very predictable move to dodge, Bakuto wasn't surprised, but now the Diglett was moving around under the sand. This was troubling, he couldn't exactly hit the little Diglett when it was underground. At least Absol couldn't. Bakuto quickly thought of something. "Absol, we need to turn up the heat a bit on that Diglet. Use Flamethrower on the ground follow the movements of the sand so we can heat up that sand and keep it up until that Diglet comes out of hiding."

A bit of an abnormal move for an Absol, but a move it can perfectly learn. Absol unleashes a torrent amount of flames from its mouth. Hitting the sand with a fiery attack. Not an effective move against ground types Bakuto's plan was to try and heat up the sand enough to force the Diglett to surface. Bakuto wasn't sure how long Absol could keep up this attack either, as Absol wasn't an actual fire type pokemon. The only other thing he could have done was wait for the pokemon to reemerge, and judging based on its speed it could emerge and go back into digging in a flash. The only thing Bakuto could think of stopping the Diglett was make the environment harder to dig or at least a lot more uncomfortable maybe do a little bit of damage with the environment change.

The psycho cut worked, and Bakuto was relived when the gym leader returned. Then he listened to Henri, as he explains he was going to use Marowak but he wanted to see how Bakuto would work against a different pokemon and called out a Diglett. At first Bakuto looked at its size and started to assume this was a piece of cake to beat, but the more he thinks about it, it was a very small pokemon sticking out of the sand.

Bakuto then calls out, "Absol use Shadow ball, put the ball between you and those mud slap balls, then hit that Diglett with full powered Shadow Ball!" Absol began creating another shadow ball, the mud balls hit the ball as it grows. The mud slap makes Absol get pushed back slightly but the shadow ball continues to grow in size. Absol creates the shadow ball as big as it can and then launches it right at Diglett in the sand. Bakuto looking to hit the very small pokemon with a big powerful attack. Wanting to end this gym battle before the Pokémon can start moving around much in the sand. If the pokemon sticking out of the sand had any sign of what it could do, or what in its name says it can do. Bakuto wanted to stop it before it started to dig around the arena.

The attack hit and Bakuto fought urge to smile after the attack. One move hitting wasn't something to celebrate just yet this Rhydon is still up. The Rhydon seemed more tired from that attack and that was something for Bakuto to make a mental note of. Henri ordered another attack this time a Horn Attack. Looking to use Rhydon's powerful horn to hit with a horn attack.

This was a moment Bakuto was waiting for he then yells, "Smack that horn attack away and nail that Rhydon with a psycho cut." The horn like flap on the top of Absol's head shined for a second as it charges Rhydon looking to nail horn attack with a powerful psycho cut. Looking to hit and out power the tired Rhydon with high hitting move. Not thinking of a better opportunity then with the Rhydon charging head first towards Absol to hit this move right on top of its head. Also using Rhydon's forward momentum going into the attack to amplify how hard the attack hits adding to the already high hitting move of Psycho Cut.

At first, he was happy the attack hit for a second time, but that quickly turned from happiness into despair quickly. The gym leader told his pokemon to use Smack Down. A rock move that could prove very bad for Ninjask. Not only because his pokemon is a bug type, but because the move would remove his pokemon's advantage against ground type moves as well. Instinctively Bakuto yells to Ninjask, "Avoid it Ninjask!"

Ninjask tries to avoid the move with its speed. It looked like it would, but gets clipped by the move. Ninjask is smacked into the ground. Even a glancing blow was super effective against Ninjask. The pokemon fights to get back up, fighting not to faint just from the move that hit it. Ninjask regains somewhat of a balance but it was hurt. It says its name wanting to keep fighting, Bakuto calls with the pokeball that he pulled out, "Ninjask Return!" The red light envelops the flying bug pokemon, and it returns to its pokeball. Bakuto smiles, "Knew this wouldn't be easy. Absol, you are up buddy. Time for the main event."

The white and red pokemon perks up and springs onto the field to face the Rhydon. Absol looking ready to go staring down the big rock pokemon. Ths time Bakuto didn't have a type advantage or disadvantage, so now the battle would be whose pokemon was better. Bakuto wastes no time to get things started, "Absol, lets start things off quickly, hit that Rhydon with a Shadow ball!" Starting things off with a ghost move, The Red Absol quickly creates a dark ball of shadows then fires it right at Rhydon almost as quickly as Bakuto called out the attack. Looking to hit and batter the Rhyhorn with a ghost attack.

Going back to the ship, after paying for the damages, and buying a few barrels of alcohol he carried all the barrels and the prisoner back to the White Pear all at the same time. Not really surprised the wolf stayed out cold during the trip. He did hit him rather hard to knock him out.

First thing Bakuto does was tie their new prisoner up to the main mast. Using a bit of rope to tie his hands up above his head and to keep him bound heavily with as much knots he could tie up. Not leaving up anything to chance with this zoan type user. Bakuto wanted to throw him into sea so the crew didn't have to deal more with Arafael then they had to. Bakuto needed something to do, he couldn't really go shopping for stuff on the island. He just used his money to pay for the damages he caused in the bar.

Quickly putting the barrels away into storage. That he just bought for the crew. Part of him couldn't wait to crack into the barrels but that had to wait until later, since this is the start of a back up reserve Bakuto got. Once back on the main deck of the ship Looking around the ship Bakuto figured he could do some exercising until it was time to leave. Grabbing a bit more rope and a box of cannonballs. Bakuto was going to do a bit of exercising to use up his time up before his crew had to set sail.

"Two thousand ninety eight....two thousand and ninety nine....three thousand." Bakuto once again hanging upside down from the main mast near the prisoner so he can keep an eye on him. Bakuto was upside down with fifty cannonballs inside a box tied to him doing pull ups. Barely aware of how much time has passed. He had focused on pushing his body to its limits during his exercises trying to strengthen himself.

He stops when he heard 'So how goes Scruffy, or Arafael, so as he calls?'. Bakuto looks around while upside down and sees the captain boarding the ship. Bakuto looks at the tied up prisoner and answers plainly while completely disregarding that he was upside down, "Not sure, I know I hit him pretty hard. I'm pretty sure he didn't croak on us. He was breathing still when I tied him up"Bakuto relaxes a bit when tied up upside down from the cross beam of the mast as if that was a normal every day thing.

The box of cannonballs that was tied to his waist barely misses the ground. Bakuto used it to weigh himself down during his latest exercise. Bakuto looks down at the box, he was actually thinking he needed more weight as he looked at the box. He was waiting for the captain's orders before doing anything just yet.

Ninjask speeds up through its attacks getting faster due to its speed boost ability. Bakuto hears the gym leader tell his pokemon to use Scary face. He smiles, "A move to lower speed good choice but you need to do more to lower Ninjask's speed. Alright Ninjask, let do it again! Aerial Ace then follow with another metal Claw" The Scary face put Ninjask back to its original speed but Ninjask began to speed up again to get into the Aerial Ace maneuver moving in quickly looking to hit the Rhydon with the same combo again.

Bakuto using Ninjask's natural speed boosting to counter the speed lowering move Henri went to use. While also looking to hit the same move combo. Keeping Ninjask moving seemed to Bakuto the best plan of attack against the powerful Rhydon. Still trying to make up for the type disadvantage in his own way.
