Fukushu needed to pre-occupy himself. He had spent some time trying to make money, but that wasn't going to keep his skills up; he'd no sparring partner as of yet, so what better way to get some combat in than cleaning up crime. He knew that in the big cities he could probably wait around for a few hours and wait for the trouble to find him, but he didn't want that. Instead he knew of a place where the trouble would be right there waiting for him.
There was a place known as the pirate caves; an odd name considering that it's inhabitants would likely want to avoid trouble. The occupants were the kind of bandits whom he cut his teeth on while fighting crime on Hera. Would they be able to live up to them in terms of strength and brutality? Probably not, but in large enough numbers it still should make for a good fight. As he touched down near the entrance to the caves a strong scent permeated through the air. If he had to describe it then he'd say it was some kind of mix between old corpses and rooted wood mixed in with cheap perfume.
"Definitely smells like crime... hard to see much down here though." Fukushu had chosen to arrive with the sun down; he'd though the moonlight would be enough to make things visible, though for some reason the light was a bit weaker than he expected. "I suppose what's here will have to do then."
There was a thin wooden path hugging the left side of the cave entrance, which must have been what the pirates used to walk around when not on their ships. Walking along this path Fukushu attempted his best to keep quiet, though he had no skill in hiding his power so anyone with the ability to sense it would know quite quickly that he was there. Tip-toeing further and further into the cave the light from outside grew weaker and weaker, being replaced by a warmer shine coming from within. A few moments later and the Heran passed a sharp corner which revealed some kind of pitstop where a ship had been docked.
There were candles lit up across the area, and he could see a few of the pirates chatting each other up, both on the ship and outside on the dock below. There weren't quite as many as he would have liked, but perhaps if he caused a scene more would show up. Not one for sneak attacks, Fukushu made sure that all were aware of his presence. "Greetings scum of the Earth! I count... seven men who will soon join the bodies in the waters below! Who would like to go first?"
