Background
Cortes Zaber was an orphan, abandoned as a baby and left on the doorstep of hermit Mannel Logan, who lived on the outskirts of small island town located in the West Blue. The 49 year old man begrudgingly took the child in. After a few years, the old hermit grew to care for Zaber teaching him to read and write. One day, when Zaber was 10 years old, after gathering firewood in a nearby forest, Logan realized that the young Zaber had strayed away from Logan and had gotten lost in the woods. But before Logan could head back to the forest to search for Zaber, the boy found his way back to the hut, using some of Logan's old maps of the land that he had with him. Logan, amazed by this, decided to teach the young Zaber about navigation and weather. When Zaber turned 17, Logan admitted to Zaber that he was a former Marine, who grew disillusioned with the system and became a pirate and navigator who had faked his death after his crew had disbanded years before, with Logan as the last living crewmember. Zaber declared to his adoptive father and mentor that he would become a pirate, not for wealth, fame or power, but to explore the world with Logan as his captain. Logan decided to train Zaber in the art of swordsmanship sparring with him almost every night for 5 years, with the old man keeping ahead of his younger protégé. But that would not stay that way.
When Zaber turned 23, he went out into town to pick up supplies at night for Logan, who had become very sick, when he had overheard that Marines were searching for Logan, after locals in the town heard the suspicious sounds of their sparring sessions in the outskirts of town. Quickly heading back to his mentor's home he had realized that the old man told him he was dying from an incurable disease. But he gave Zaber his two swords, a small bag containing his person stash of treasure, and a blank book to write about his adventurous exploits. Afterward, Logan told Zaber to run before the Marines could find him, to continue his own adventure Logan also told his adopted son that the he would go out with a bang, and gave Zaber a weak but sincere smile. Zaber, nodded and fled, tears in his eyes before the Marines were able to arrive. As Zaber left the hut, Logan used the last of his strength to strike a match and laughed. Zaber had to use some of his gathered supplies and stole a rowboat under the cover of night in order to leave the island, and then saw a large explosion lighting up thr sky, the direction coming from the location of the hut. Zaber realized that Logan used a barrel of gunpowder inside the hut to blow himself up, rather than die from his disease or let the Marines catch him. A few days later, Zaber arrived in another island town, where he would do his best to covertly help others under the name "Demon Wind" while using his skills as a swordsman and navigator, taking up work as a bounty hunter.
