🤝 Pirate and Beggar

[shared]Thanks so much to my friend Agu-Fungus for recently making this lovely series of fanarts of Kazoku and Mickey from my early art. I just wanted to share the pictures on my site and got the permission! 😁[/shared]

I really like Kazoku in the anime style, the topless backbend and bare feet are a beautiful combination in this style, I'd buy a ticket to this circus every day just to look at him! 😘

Art and description by Agu-Fungus:

Real name, Kazoku. His stage name is "Kaizoku" because of his fascination with pirates of fantasy, and because of that, his performances and choice of attire are always themed after pirates.

He was an orphan boy who was raised by the local circus to become a contortionist, and he always considered the circus his family. One day, however, an unfortunate accident with the circus elephants forced the circus to shut down, and the circus owner did his best to relocate his staff out of town so they won't lose their jobs.

Because Kazoku was still a kid, and still wasn't ready to leave his town, he was instead taken as a rookie for a crew of seamen in what they claimed was a fishing vessel made of steel, because of his admiration with sea life. However, it turned out that the crew was actually a crew of armed modern pirates looking for rookies to expand their crew.

Kazoku may be a fan of fantasy pirates, but he absolutely doesn't want anything to do with actual criminals, and once he learned the truth about what he got himself into, he wanted to escape and return to the circus he considered his home.

Days shortly after he entered the pirate ship, the crew prepared their weapons to attack a nearby ship, also full of pirates. Kazoku decided enough is enough, and escaped from the ship to swim his way back home, but not without retrieving the necklace that he used to wear in his performances and that got stolen by the pirates.

With a floater in hand, wearing once again his necklace around his neck, and kicking as much as he could, he did his best to swim back to his home, though due to how far the pirate ship took him, it seemed that it's going to take him forever. And to make matters worse, the currents were getting really strong, threatening to take him down and prevent him to survive.

It seemed to be the end for the young circus boy, who ended up being hit by the violence of the seas. The time has passed, and the poor boy was washed ashore to a nearby beach. If it weren't for the floater that he grabbed from the ship, he would have ended up on the sea forever.

A young boy was walking by the shore, when suddenly, he saw the circus boy lying in the sands. He quickly rushed to drag him to safe land to see if the boy was still alive.

To be continued...

A new story I decided to make of another of Yuni's characters, Kazoku or "Kaizoku". My gift to an awesome friend. I took elements from his original design, including his valuable necklace, as well now being pirate themed. Expect more of him soon, as well as the boy who found him. 😁
