Nami and Luffy Begin Sparring

Nami then began her lesson by attacking Luffy with her Clima Tact as if it were just a bo staff for the time being. Luffy, a bit weakened by the seastone bracelets, was able to defend himself with the bo staff. After a while, he thought he figured Nami's style enough to attack back, but Nami ib turn was also able to defend herself.

"Not bad, Luffy. You're picking it up fast," complimnented Nami.

"Using it really does remind me of the metal pipe from year ago. Maybe abandoning it in favor of just my DF abilities was a mistake after all," replied Luffy.

"What's done is done. But it's good that you see that now. Now then, I'm about to increase my speed."

Nami then went at her full speed as she attacked Luffy some more. However, this was too much for Luffy while he was wearing those seastone bracelets as her attacks landed on him sending him and his bo staff across the room.

"Ow, that hurt. Even though I'm rubber I didn't think they'd hurt that much."

"Don't think of yourself as a rubberman right now, Luffy," sighed Nami. "That includes the defenses it would normally give you."

"Oh, I see," said Luffy as he stood up and noticed that his clothes got some tears from Nami's attack.

'I better be careful or else we'll need to stop because I need new clothes,' thought Luffy as he picked up his bo staff and prepared himself for Nami to attack again. Nami also saw the damage she had done to his clothes and she smirked a bit as she started to get an idea to do more than just bo staff training.
