Tatsuo had Siri locate the Yami Yami no mi and it was on an unknown island in the New World.

'Instead of growing from a plant, the ability of the devil fruit simply regenerates inside another similar fruit similar to a parasite.'

Tatsuo found the Yami Yami no mi on the vines of teardrop grapes.

'A large, round, light purple fruit made up of many small teardrop-shaped components with swirl patterns, and green leaves sprouting from the top.'

Tatsuo picked the fruit and inspected it before dumping the whole thing in his mouth. He chewed on it like a tire as it's rubbery consistency and disgusting flavor caused him to gag. Then it happened.

*BUMP*

Tatsuo's heart started to speed up as his body heated up.

*BUMP*

His skin turned a bright red color as it started to peel.

*BUMP*

The Air in the surrounding region raged causing tornadoes and Hurricanes.

*BUMP*

"AGGGGGAHHHHHHHH!!"

Tatsuo's body was ripped apart and pieced back together as the devil fruits within him fought for supremacy.

The Yami Yami no mi controls the Darkness while the Kaze Kaze no Mi controls the winds, The wind an ever-present force that consists of the gases which allow us to continue to live. While the darkness will persist as long as there is an absence of light.

*BUMP*

Then it was as if the two realized something.

*BUMP*

Why fight for supremacy when we can work together.

*BUMP*

The two merged together into something new. Changing the host's body.

*BUMP*

As long as the wind remains the darkness will persist.

*BUMP*

As long as the Darkness remains the power shall be limitless.

*BUMP*

The mark of darkness appeared on Tatsuo's chest while the Mark of the wind changed his hair color.

*BUMP*

Something never seen before was created.

*BUMP*

A Spark that reignited the flames of history.

*BUMP*

The Spark of a god.

*BUMP*

But this spark is still young.

*BUMP*

With proper care, it will become a raging flame.

*BUMP*

The Flame that will reignite the stagnate flows.

It took 1 Week for Tatsuo to awaken, 2 weeks for him to Stand, and 5 weeks for him to regain the ability to control his power Dark Winds. As he explored the possibilities of his power he made his way back to Marineford where he was approached by his peers and even some Vice-Admirals who were unconvinced.

'How is someone so young the same rank as us?'

This was the main reason behind their discomfort. Some of them are in their late 20s to 40s while some are even older yet here was a young man, technically an adult but they still consider him green behind the ears and riding the coattails of his Father to reach his current point.

'How Annoying.'

Tatsuo looked at the mob of Rear and Vice-Admirals with disgust as he understood the reasoning behind his rapid rise through the ranks. It was a new era. Just as Sengoku and Garp rose quickly due to the end of the Rock Pirates era into Gold D. Rogers he too was just a victim of circumstance.


In Modern day this is a common tactic used by superiors when they encounter an outstanding individual. Promote them! Yet as they try to fill the shoes of their new ranks their peers sink their fangs in like Vampires dragging the person down with excuses and other odd reasoning.

But as Tatsuo is no ordinary teen but a great Ancestor that has lived for hundreds of thousands of years this technique is too primitive and outdated.

'The fact that people think age is equal to knowledge and experience is laughable. In life, there will always be someone more talented, more knowledgeable, and more proficient than someone else when it boils down to it is more about who is the right person for the job than who has done the job longer. Which is one of the reasons why I chose my crew to be younger than usual, having to prove yourself to subpar individuals repeatedly is tiring.'

Activating his Haoshoku Haki Tatsuo walked unhindered as the Marines around him dropped like flies. As Tatsuo walked he looked like the king among men as the weak-willed passed out and the stronger were forced to kneel.

With this, His Power was displayed.

"Oya, Oya Rear Admiral Tatsuo, don't you think it's a bit excessive to do that to your peers?"

Tatsuo looked to see the individual that was capable of speech and jokes during his Haki. When he looked there stood Admiral Akoji.

"Actually I should be calling you Vice Admiral now after your subjugation of Jack the Drought and elimination of his crew which weakened the overall strength of one of the Yonko. Great merit indeed."

When this was stated the surrounding marines underwent a bit of shock as they did not expect this youth to be so insanely powerful.

"In Fact, Sengoku is going to bring up both your power and what you have done in the East Blue up to the Commander-in-chief during the next Reverie in a few weeks. So who knows you might even become the fourth Admiral."

Boom! Another bombshell was thrown onto the group as they realized they far far far underestimated the abilities of this young Vice-Admiral.

"The Only one opposed to it is Akainu who clams you to be too young, but Sengoku stated ability is the most important aspect in the Marines."

Akoji paused then took off his sunglasses to look Tatsuo in the eye.

"So while your rank will remain Vice-Admiral until the end of Reverie, you are already considered a valuable military asset by the world government as only you, Garp and the Three Admirals have the ability to fight against the Yonko and survive."

Tatsuo looked at Akoji and nodded his head as he pulled Jack the Droughts head out of his shadow. He was also given the codename: Soyokaze by Sengoku, so apart from the Admirals there was a fourth Marine with a codename walking about that was even more dangerous.
