Wukong R. Jack

Water Jack is a wandering freelancer along with his ally Toko Haley, who work together to complete various odd jobs.

Appearance
Unlike most males encountered, Jack can be easily identified by most. Due to his larger stature, silver-light blue hair, and his crimson eyes he is very distinguishable. Standing at a height of 6’4, Jack is rather tall for an ordinary man; towering over many in fact. Accompanying his height, he also has an extremely muscular built. Normally Jack’s silver-light blue hair is spiky and gives off a rather neat messy look. In his everyday attire, he is seen wearing a black jacket with t-shirt long sleeves that cover half of his upper arm. There’s also a red line adorning it’s zipper, collar, and end piece of the sleeves. He wears black pants which are tucked into his shin high boots of the same color. Covering most of his outfit is a white cloak that slacks over his left shoulder, while it simply hangs loosely from his waist on the right side. On the cloak, there are various patterns at the end pieces of it that are a similar color to his hair. Over the cloak there is both a black leather belt seen loosely tied, while a navy blue sash is tied tightly above, to keep his cloak from falling off. He is also seen carrying a sword that usually remains sheathed. On first glance Jack appears to be a very serious person, until the moment in which he smiles very awkwardly. When angered, his overall appearance remains the same only having his eyes be what is altered. His pupils will contract until they’re small dots, and veins will adorn the outer layer of his eyes. Depending on his rage, one or both eyes will turn completely black, then the contracted pupil will glow a red.

Personality
Despite what his appearance suggests, Jack is a rather carefree individual. Due to his large stature most at first see him as a rather serious person, until interacting with him. A very prominent personality of his, is his overt pervertedness. Upon seeing a woman he deems attractive being any woman, he is not afraid to throw himself toward them. Constantly flirting with women, he is often the core of both Haley’s and other’s anger. On multiple occasions, he has been stumped on a woman’s beauty, and has the policy to never fight a woman unless she attacks him or Haley first. Similar to Vinsmoke Sanji, he is often easily distracted by a woman’s beauty regardless of the situation and the promises of one is enough to spark a catalyst in his behavior. He also tends to lose more blood through nose bleeds, than he does through a battle. He also is shown to be comfortable with girls hitting him, as he’s more focused on the fact that a “pretty girl” is touching him. In addition to being a flirt, Jack is very extroverted. He somewhat popular amongst various townsfolk, if he remains in a city long enough. He tends to frequent pubs for liquor and laughs, always being the spark of everyone’s fun. His personality often plays an important role in his profession as he gains connections to wealthy individuals, that will be willing to pay large sums of money for tasks even if they’re menial. He often tries to tell jokes to the point in which it interferes with his battles. When attacked he often shouts that his opponent shouldn’t go around jacking up his bread ‘n butter, referring to his face. This often unintentionally throws his opponent off guard, which ends up giving Jack the advantage. Jack is also extremely loyal to those he consider his allies, most particularly being his friend Toko Haley. Despite his desire to go off and see the world, he always remains by Haley’s side. Despite in a way being a polar opposite of her, he views her as an important person to him in which he would never abandon. In addition to all of his traits, he tends to be a rather over protective of those particularly close to him, an example being Haley. Around most men Jack would often assume the role of her protector, and immediately confront those who seem as if they’re pestering her. This often plays a role in how they function both during and not during work. During missions, Jack will often jump in the way of attacks somewhat on impulse as he’d rather see himself than Haley get hurt. Adding onto using himself to protect Haley, he will often unintentionally activate his haki upon learning their intent with her. During escort missions he would often jump in the way of others, but this could be due to the fact that he’s getting paid to do just that. It is not uncommon for him to follow Haley during her everyday activities to make sure she’s safe, despite her condemning this activity. This trait despite it being an extremely admiral one, is more often a hindrance than asset in combat. Due to his nature, he would often take the blows meant for other opponents, getting somewhat injured himself. From a young age Jack could also be described as adventurous, as he wanted to engage in traveling the world to which he currently does as a wandering freelancer with Toko Haley.

History
About 21 years ago on the summer solstice Jack was born in the small Syrup Village, located on Gecko Island. Like most of the children if not all, he lived a blissful childhood that did however contain few troubling incidents in it. At the age of five his peaceful village was disrupted with the cries of parents; which was considered alien to the boy. Upon discovering that the parents were unaware of the whereabouts of their young daughter, he joined his parents and the rest of the villagers on their search for her. He and his family worked together combing the forest for hours, until eventually arriving at a spring. The spring itself was utterly mesmerizing, containing a plethora of plants and animals, seeming as though it were a page ripped directly from a fairy tale book that Jack’s parents often read to him. Jack and his family’s observation of the location, was then interrupted by the sound of crying nearby. The three followed the sounds which led them to a waterfall, which contained a stone path to walk behind it. Following the path it lead to a dark cave which inhabited a few animals, flowers extending through the cracks in which sunlight miraculously managed to hit, and a small child staring directly at them. Though far enough back to somewhat conceal herself, the family recognized the child as the lost girl Toko Haley. Taking her hand Jack and his family lead the girl back to the village, in which she was given back to her family. After that incident the village would face another obstacle five years later when Jack was around 10 years old. As if struck by lightning, many people began to drop one after the other. Though a strong willed man Jack’s father was no exception to this, as he was one of the many who fell as well. In no time at all Jack’s father was taken by the affliction, and Jack himself was present as his father left this world. As a result of his village suffering a plague, this halted any trade from foreign lands resulting in a depression. Many of those in Jack’s village fell prey to this as food began to be rationed between families, and many other basic commodities. Deciding to take from the land around them many men of Jack’s village would go off on trips to gather food, water, and herbs that their people desperately needed. Due to the lack of available manpower the village would take whoever they could, including a ten year old Jack who was more than happy to help out despite his mother’s anxiousness towards it. As the plague continued, Jack helped out as much as a ten year old could; delivering food, and medicine to various families to help ease the pain of their ill family member. While on a hunting trip while the others were resting to prepare for the hike onwards, Jack went off to gather more food in case they overlooked certain areas. While gathering berries, Jack found one in particular that stood out amongst the rest. The red spiky fruit was vastly different from the others and quickly collected by the boy. Almost as if his stomach commanded his muscles taking the task away from the brain, he consumed the fruit due to his own hunger, despite its bitter taste. Returning back to the campsite, Jack’s group was ambushed by a large grizzly bear. Attempting to help his allies, Jack grabbed as many materials as he could in the midst of the chaos. Due to Jack’s overabundance of items he wasn’t capable of sneaking away from the bear, and was subsequently attacked. During the onslaught, he was savagely beaten by the creature; even losing his right arm in the process. With what little strength he had left, he redirected the bear’s charge, throwing it far away from him. He then was rushed back to the village to get him the immediate medical attention he so desperately required. Once returning to the village, he was brought to the Toko household, and given directly to the young child Haley. Trying her very best, she was capable of healing his superficial wounds, until noticing that an arm would be present where there was not one at first. Within the hour Jack was back to full health. Explaining what precisely happened during the attack, it was concluded that he must’ve eaten a devil fruit granting him extreme strength. Over the course of the two years following, Jack would use his abilities to lead hunts and bring home a great quantity of supplies. The illness that plagued his village then began to successfully die down, as more and more people began showing signs of recovering from it. As a result of his village’s plague from subsiding, trade would reopen and the plethora of materials that the village contained due to Jack and others combine effort, quickly brought them up from their depression; restoring them back to normal. In the years following this a now adolescent Jack would stare off at the sea pondering the adventures awaiting. He would often dream of the lands outside of his village, and imagine the people being different from what he was accustomed to. Shortly after his seventeenth birthday, Jack would announced that he’d be departing from his village in order to go off and see what wonders the world had to offer. Although none of the villagers expressed any interest in joining him whatsoever, they all greatly encouraged him and would often give him gifts before his departure.

The morning of his departure at the pier, he was stopped by the villagers who would see him off. He then learned that he would not be making his trip alone, as another from his village would be joining him. As the boat set off, he and Haley looked back at the island until it was out of sight. For the past few years, the two have been working as freelancers in various cities, traveling the world and witnessing countless sights that would never be possible if they remained at the small village that they periodically return to.

Abilities
As a devil fruit user, Jack has abilities that are impossible to be possessed by normal individuals who have not or yet to consumed one themselves. Although not known on a global scale like many figures that people aspire to be, Jack is considered to be extremely strong regardless of the powers used through his devil fruit. As a freelancer he deals with multiple jobs that have a variety of people, with a variety of capabilities. Despite growing up in his small village, Jack’s power supersedes that of anyone someone would suspect of that village. In order to be involved in his line of work, he must do his best to remain as strong as possible. In addition to his strength, he accompanies it with both great speed and his abilities with various weapons, and having a proficient control over his devil fruit powers.

Devil Fruit
Due to consuming the Pondo Pondo No Mi, Jack at a young age was granted the ability to manipulate the mass of anything around him. Originally revered by his peers as the boy with the power of a giant, he was capable of bringing home vasts amounts of materials on his own. After learning the truth of his powers, he trained diligently to perfect his new power. At this point in his life, he’s realized the potential of his power and uses it effortlessly in battle. Since he’s able to decrease the mass of various objects, he has no qualms with throwing large objects at opponents, only to increase it before coming into contact, normally dealing a painful blow early in a battle. While decreasing mass in battle, he’s capable of throwing his helpless opponents high into the air, causing them to quickly plummet back down once returning their body mass to normal. In addition to altering his opponent's body weight he also uses this to decrease it, resulting in them dealing a much weaker attack than they would anticipate. By altering his very own mass, he can deal a devastating blow himself to his opponents. Despite being capable lowering the mass of objects the lift heavy objects, Jack also contains immense strength. Outside of battles, he uses his powers to increase the mass of various objects to train with. On multiple occasions, he can be seen using his devil fruit powers to save individuals in danger. Once a building began tipping sideways, and a small child would’ve been crushed had Jack not decreased the weight of the building thus being able to hold it up long enough for him and the boy to escape.

Physical Prowess
In order to support himself and Haley, Jack decided that the two become wandering freelancers; doing various odd jobs for money. Although none involving them in any illegal matter, Jack often finds himself engaging in combat against various opponents. In order to deal with his more high paying gigs, he often hones his skills in various ways including boxing, basic exercises, etc. As a result of his training, Jack is considerably a very strong individual as he’s capable of lifting heavy objects, and can even bite a sword in half when angered. He’s also incredibly fast as he’s capable of moving distances in mere seconds. He also has a great deal of endurance, as it's not uncommon for him to suffer a great deal of damage. Despite what he faces he capable of battling through it, due to a high tolerance of pain. His endurance is to the point in which he can get stabbed in the forehead, and not have it phase him or simply go unnoticed until informed as this happened while protecting a client from a gang of bandits. Despite carrying a sword with him, he isn’t very useful with this particular weapon, as he simply carries it in order to scare people off from fighting him. Though not very skilled with a sword, he does often use the sheathe as a blunt instrument. He is also often seen using random weapons he finds with some skill.

Relationships
Toko Haley Due to being from the same small close-knit community and being relatively close in age the two, they could be described as life long friends. At the age of 2 years old Haley wandered from her home and was lost in the forest. It wasn’t until later that day that she was found by Jack and his family, who carried her back to the village. She also was shown to be grateful to him, as he would unintentionally help her make him become her first patient, after helping her find the fruit which would lead to her gaining her powers. Once he announced that he’d be leaving the island, she was the only one who opted to join him on his excursion around the world. She would remain by his side as a fellow freelancer, and often accompanies Jack on several of his tasks to earn money. Due to his overprotective nature he often does his best to keep her safe, even if it’s a little gratuitous. Despite his perverted nature rather than looking upon her with lust like most girls, he primarily views Haley as his closest ally and is willing to do anything he can do to protect her. Whenever he is enraged, he tends to fight rather recklessly, as this primarily happens if a target is intending to harm Haley.
