Chapter 1: A New Dawn I
It was 11 years ago that Monkey D. Luffy captain, of the Strawhat Pirates became the pirate king. After that fateful day he found One Piece the crew went their separate ways. Luffy went back to Alabasta to marry its princess Nefertari Vivi. The two moved to Luffy's home island, Dawn Island. They began to raise a family there while traveling back and forth to Alabasta to keep the country safe. In two years-times Vivi gave birth to a son they named Monkey D. Raidon. Three years after that she gave birth to a girl they decided to name Nefertari D. Hanabi. It is with this girl that our story begins.
Opening Theme: Koi Se Yo Onna no Ko (Best Student Council)
A young blue haired girl stretched and yawned as she sat up in her bed. She was at her parent's house on Dawn Island. She had a round face and round eyes. Her blue hair, reached down just to her shoulders.
-Nefertari D. Hanabi, 6 years old, Princess of Alabasta & Pirates-
Hanabi groggily got her clothes on. She put on a white shirt and blue shorts. She then proceeded to leave her room. She yawned as she passed an old picture of her father, her mother, and their friends. Hanabi had heard great stories about her father's travels across the grand line. He father had even found stones that allowed people to cross over between parallel worlds. The world government also found these stones and started pushing their influence into other worlds. Hanabi didn't understand much about it but her father and mother didn't think too kindly about it.
Hanabi entered the kitchen. It was, in her opinion big. It had a refrigerator, a table with six chairs, a stove, counter, and even a dishwasher. Her mother had said they got the dishwasher from another world on one of her father's travels. Hanabi quickly took a seat and looked over at the stove her mother was currently working on. The woman had long blue hair that reached down to her tail bone. She was dressed in a pale blue blouse and a blue dress. "Good morning mom," Hanabi said trying to position herself on the chair.
The woman turned around and smiled at the girl. She looked like an older version of Hanabi. "Good morning Hanabi," she said.
-Monkey Vivi, 35 years old, Queen of Alabasta-
"Your father is out in town somewhere, probably visiting Makino, or Woop," she said. "Your brother left a little while ago, but I'm not entirely sure where he went."
"I'll go and see what he's doing then," Hanabi said.
"You won't eat breakfast first?" Vivi asked.
Hanabi's stomach grumbled. She blushed and turned back to her mother. "Um… I'd like to eat first please," Hanabi said with a nervous laugh. She sat down at the table and waited for her mother to finish making her a plate of food.
Once the food was done Vivi placed it on the table. The plate had scrambled eggs with fish slices with a few leaves of lettuce on the side. Vivi also put a large bowl on the table as well. Hanabi instantly began to eat loudly.
…..
A woman walked into an empty bar. She had long black hair tied back in a ponytail. She wore a red plated shirt and a simple long skirt on. She walked over to the counter and put on an apron
- Makino Proprietor of the Tavern -
She turned around as a girl walked in with a loud yawn. She had short maroon hair. She wore a red shirt with a black jacket over it which she kept hanging off her shoulders. She wore shorts that stopped at her mid-thigh.
- Marianne, 13 years old, Mariko's daughter -
Mom," she said sleepily. "Why do we always have to get up so early?"
"That's because we work a tavern Marianne," Mariko said to her daughter. "We have to be up and ready to serve people food and drinks."
"I understand that but why this early?" Marianne asked.
"If you understood you wouldn't be asking that question," Mariko said with a laugh. She walked behind the counter. Her daughter was a lot like Luffy when he was younger. He never listened to reason and avoided the facts if it was against what he wanted. Sometimes she couldn't help but laugh at the similarities between the two.
The door to the pub suddenly opened. Makino and Marianne looked behind them to see a familiar face. It was a man with messy black hair and an open black jacket over a red vest. He wore dark blue shorts and sandals. He smiled brightly sliding his straw-hat off his head. "Hello there Mariko, Marianne," he said with a laugh.
- Monkey D. Luffy, 36 years old, King of Pirates & Alabasta -
"Luffy-San!" Marianne called running to hug him. Out of everyone on the island he was Marianne's favorite person. He always told her about his adventures on the grand line and the new world. She had always dream of seeing the world. Luffy had promised that one day when she was older he would take her on a cruise to Alabasta.
"Ah Marianne," Luffy said with a big grin on his face. "It's good to see you. You too Makino." Luffy looked up to see Makino who was smiling watching her daughter hug Luffy.
"Hi Luffy-San," she said. "Back from Alabasta already?"
"Yeah," Luffy said. "It's really hot down there." He sat down at the bar and put his hat back on his head. "It's nice to be here."
"Did you go anywhere else this time!?" Marianne asked excited.
"Not this time sorry," Luffy said. Seeing the look of disappointment on her face Luffy added, "Did I ever tell you about the time when I broke into Impel Down?"
"You broke into the world's greatest prison!?" Marianne asked completely shocked.
"Yeah," Luffy said smiling at her change in attitude. "It was around 19 years ago."
.….
A boy with black hair walked out of the forest on Dawn Island. He glanced down a cliff to the rocks below. He silently kicked a stone off the edge, before stabbing the ground with a stick. He sat down on a bolder and sighed.
- Monkey D. Raidon, 9 years old, Prince of Alabasta & Pirates -
He took out a knife and began to sharpen the stick to a point. He stopped for a minute to expect his work before something caught his eye. Out on the ocean was a big ship with a jolly roger his father had told him about. "This can't be good," Raidon said to himself before running off back into the forest.
.….
Hanabi sighed and rubbed her stomach having just finished eating. She smiled with satisfaction. Vivi couldn't help laughing at her. "You are so much like your father I'm surprised you look more like me," Vivi said as she washed dishes.
"Am I?" Hanabi asked tilting her head a little. She then jumped off her chair and ran to the door. "I'm going to see dad," Hanabi said. "See you later mom love you!"
"See you later Hanabi," Vivi said with a smile.
.….
Luffy had just finished his story telling Marianne about how Bon Clay sacrificed himself to save him and the others who escaped. Marianne had tears in her eyes hearing the story but refused to stop listening to the story. This was one of the most thrilling stories that Luffy had told her in months, and this one, like all the rest, was real.
"So," Luffy continued. "After we got the farewell message from Bon Clay…" all of a sudden screams could be heard from outside the pub. "What's going on?" Luffy asked.
"Mom," Marianne said running behind the counter to her mother as Luffy got up to check outside. Outside the window he could see people running away from the coast and towards the back area of the village towards the direction of his house.
"What's happening Luffy-San?" Makino asked.
"I'm not sure but something must have happened," Luffy said. He turned to looked behind him. "I'm going to go and see what happened."
As he was about to go to the tavern's door it was busted down. Luffy glared when he saw a familiar face. "Boggy!" Luffy said pointing at the red nosed pirate captain. He was wearing clothes similar to his original wardrobe except his shirt was blue instead of red.
The pirate captain fell over at the name he was addressed by. "It's Buggy!" he shouted. "I keep telling you it's Buggy!"
- Buggy the Clown, Captain of the Buggy Pirates -
"Oh," Luffy said as if he just realized it. "It's nice to see you after so long, how have you been?" he motioned to a chair at the bar.
"I've been fine," Buggy said walking over to take a seat. "How about you I heard you got hitched. How's that been?"
"Makino!" Luffy said. "A steak dinner and a round of drinks for me and Buggy here!" Luffy then turned back to Buggy. "It's been great. Vivi is a little strict with the things I do now but overall it's been great."
"Ah yes, once we men get married there are some things we have to give up," Buggy said. "How about your other crewmates like Roronoa and Nami?"
"Ah," Luffy said in thought. "Last I heard Zoro got married to some Marine woman and Nami married Sanji."
"The cook?" Buggy asked to which he got a nod from Luffy. "I didn't see either of those coming but now that they have it seems so obvious."
"That's what Usopp said," Luffy said. Their food and drink arrived and they instantly started stuffing their faces. Then a thought came to Luffy. "What about your crew?"
"Well…" Buggy started then he realized something. "Wait a minute!" he shouted standing up and jumping away from Luffy who continued to eat his fill. "Why am I sitting here eating and chatting with you?!"
Luffy stared at Buggy for a minute before swallowing the food in his oversized cheeks. "What are you talking about didn't you come here to see me?" Luffy asked.
"Of course not!" Buggy shouted. "I'm here to destroy you!"
Luffy stared at him for a minute. "Why would you want to do that?" he asked tilting his head to the side.
"We are pirates it's only natural!" Buggy said. "Plus you have to pay for what you did to me at that time."
"What time?" Luffy asked.
"I mean what you and Nami did to me at Orange Town!" Buggy said.
Luffy sat in thought for a minute. "Wasn't that about 20 years ago?" he asked. "Why do you still even care? We even teamed up to escape Impel Down."
"That's in the past!" Buggy said. "I'm here to get my revenge!"
"Didn't he just say it was in the past?" Marianne asked.
"She has a point Bobgy," Luffy said.
"IT'S BUGGY!" Buggy shouted.
Luffy stared blankly at Buggy for a minute. "Oh yeah!" Luffy said.
"And you stay out of this you brat!" Buggy shouted at Marianne. "I'm here to fight Strawhat!" Buggy drew his draggers and prepared himself for battle.
"Can we do this later?" Luffy asked. "Like out on the ocean or something?"
"But then what would happen to the others?" Buggy asked.
"What?" Luffy asked turning towards him.
.….
Raidon had just exited the forest to be met with a sword swinging in his direction. He jumped out of the way just in time and glared at his attacker. He wore a dark blue shirt and black pants. He was riding a unicycle. "Great," Raidon said.
- Cabaji 2nd Mate of the Buggy Pirates -
"I'm here to take you captive," he said with a smirk.
"I'd like to see you try," Raidon said pointing his stick in his direction.
"You've got a sharp tongue for a brat," Cabaji said a bit irritated.
"At least something around here is sharp," Raidon said nodding towards his sword.
"Alright kid," Cabaji said as he began to charge at him. "You are dead!"
.….
Vivi stretched having finished her work and headed for the door. She was going to go to the tavern that Makino owned, for a quick visit. Suddenly something came through the door. She was just barely able to jump out of the way. She reached into her pockets getting ready for anything. From the cloud of dust from the broken door walked a woman. She had long wavy black hair and was wearing a white cowboy hat with a long red feather. She wore striped pink bikini top and tight pink pants. She wore a purple pirate captain coat over her clothes with golden cufflinks on the sleeves to top it off.
"Who are you?" Vivi demanded standing up.
"I am Alvida the most beautiful female pirate on the seas," she said with a grin.
- Alvida, Captain of the Alvida Pirates -
Vivi stared at her for a minute before she tilted her head to the side. "Who?" she asked confused. Vivi had heard of many pirates Luffy and the other had fought. So she had a good list of people who would want revenge on Luffy. The name Alvida however, was a name she had never heard.
"You don't know who I am?" Alvida asked sweat dropping.
Vivi shock her head. "I'm sorry Luffy told me about many of his enemies but that name never came up," Vivi said. "There were some people he described to me maybe…"
Alvida waited quietly while Vivi stared at her in thought. 'Strawhat must have told her about the greatest beauty of the sea,' she thought to herself. 'Surely she will notice it.'
Vivi sighed and looked sadly at her. "Sorry I don't recognize you from any of Luffy's descriptions," Vivi said. "When did you fight him?"
"20 years ago," Alvida said. "Back before he got even one crewmate."
"Oh," Vivi said. "Now that you mention it." Alvida smiled brightly. "I do remember Luffy saying something about him and his friend Coby fighting against a fat lady."
Alvida face faulted.
"Are you the one he was talking about?" Vivi asked.
Alvida couldn't believe that was all Luffy could say about her. Oh well, she was here for a mission anyway. She suddenly swung her giant spiked mace down onto Vivi. "Well that was easy," Alvida said happily.
"That was pretty rude," Vivi said. Alvida looked towards the voice to find Vivi perfectly fine and across the room. "My turn!" Vivi said sending one of her Peacock Slashers at Alvida.
.….
Hanabi was running towards Makino's tavern when she was knocked over. She skid across the ground until she collided with a wall. She slowly looked up to see a huge lion with a man with a white mane. "Who are you?" Hanabi asked terrified.
-Mohji the Lion Tamer, 1st Mate of the Buggy Pirates -
"I am Mohji the Beast Tamer," Mohji said. "I have been sent to capture or kill you."
Hanabi scrambled to her feet and ran away in fear. "Running huh," Mohji said. "I'd have thought Strawhat's child would be braver but, oh well Richie!" The lion known as Richie ran after Hanabi.
.….
"I mean the others in your family," Buggy said making Luffy's eyes go wide with shock. "Right now the most trusted members of my crew are taking your family hostage so we can kill you. You've been out-" he never got to finish because Luffy punched him in the face knocking him out instantly.
"I won't let you hurt my family!" Luffy said glaring at the downed Buggy. "Makino I'm going!" Luffy said before he dashed out of the tavern.
.….
Cabaji swung at Raidon. Raidon ducked under the sword and thrust the stick he had into Cabaji's shoulder. Raidon was so glad that he sharpened the stick because in went straight through his shoulder. Cabaji dropped his sword and grabbed his injured shoulder screaming in pain. "You damned brat!" he shouted.
"You have a very limited vocabulary huh?" Raidon said picking up Cabaji's fallen sword. "Regardless I think I have won."
"Not yet," Cabaji said standing up and taking the stick out of his shoulder. "I'm going to slice your arms off!"
"Hmm…" Raidon said looking at the sword. "How when I have your sword?" Cabaji sweat dropped. "Did you… not notice?"
"Shut up and die!" Cabaji shouted trying to stab Raidon with the stick.
Raidon dodged and gently poked Cabaji in the arm just enough to draw blood. Blood flew out of the wound while Cabaji rolled on the ground in pain. Raidon sweat dropped. "Is this really a pirate?"
.….
Vivi dodged another swing of Alvida's club. Vivi whipped a trickle of blood out of her eye. She glared at Alvida who had no cuts on her. All of her attacks just slipped off. Vivi then got an idea. Vivi reached into her pockets. "I think it's time we end this!" she said.
"I think so too!" Alvida said taking off her shoes. She then began to slide across the floor and picking up speed. "Smooth Run!"
Vivi took her hands out of her pockets revealing a Peacock String Slasher on each of her fingers. Vivi threw her arms over her head making the Slashers go over her head. They all fell in different directions. "Don't you see where I am!?" Alvida taunted charging directly at Vivi.
Vivi leapt into the air over Alvida to her shock. She spun around causing her weapons to spin and coil around Alvida. "Ha!" Alvida said. "These will just slip off!"
"I know," Vivi said as she continued to spin. As she spun around the Slashers around Alvida began to quickly slide off causing Alvida to lose her balance and spin. She spun out of the door and out of sight. Vivi landed on the floor. "You're power became you weakness," Vivi said catching her breath. She then ran out of the door to check on Luffy and her children.
…..
Hanabi panted as she peered around a corner. She had lost the giant lion and the weird furry man. She glanced on both sides before she began to run down the street again. She had nearly made it to the end of the block when she was knocked into the side of a house. She slowly looked up to see the giant Lion named Richie. Mohji jumped off Richie's back.
"Why do you keep running away?" Mohji asked. "If you just let me catch you, you won't be harmed."
"I won't go anywhere with you," Hanabi said getting back to her feet.
"Richie," Mohji said jumping out of the way. "Immobilized her!" Richie jumped at Hanabi. Hanabi leapt out of the way. Richie stopped and swiped at her sending her flying and causing her to get a scratch on her arm. Richie then leapt at her again. Hanabi screamed in fear.
Hanabi opened her eyes to see the back of a man with a black jacket and dark blue shorts. He also wore a familiar Strawhat. "Dad!" Hanabi said happily.
"Hey furry guy," Luffy said angrily. "Why are you attacking my daughter!?"
"So you have shown yourself Strawhat," Mohji said.
"Do I know you?" Luffy asked tilting his head to the side.
"I was one of the people you-" Mohji started but was cut off when Luffy punched him in the face. "I don't care!" Luffy shouted.
Richie seeing Mohji beaten in one attack leapt for Hanabi again. Hanabi screamed in fear. Luffy turned to see the giant lion make a gash on Hanabi's face. Luffy glared at Richie and used his Haki to knock Richie out.
Luffy ran over to Hanabi who was crying because of the pain she was feeling. Luffy picked her up. "You okay?" Luffy asked.
"Dad…" Hanabi cried.
Then Luffy was knocked off his feet from a stab attack from behind. Luffy looked behind himself to see Buggy with both his hands gone. "Biggy!?" Luffy said before putting Hanabi down and throwing his arms behind him.
"I told you my name is Bug-" Buggy began but was interrupted when Luffy shouted. "Gum Gum Bazooka!" Luffy shot his arms forward and sent Buggy flying into the sky. Luffy then fell to one knee he looked behind himself to see Hanabi still crying out in pain. He was about to stand back up when Vivi, Raidon, Makino, and Marianne ran over to them.
"Hanabi!" Vivi cried seeing her daughter on the ground in pain. "Hanabi, Luffy are you okay!?" She had tears rolling down her cheeks.
"Don't worry Vivi," Luffy said after Makino helped him to his feet. "She's not in any danger. We just have to get her to get stitches." Vivi nodded but didn't stop crying.
- Sometime later -
Hanabi awoke on a bed in the town's hospital. She slowly sat up and put a hand to her face sleepily. She instantly regretted it as she flinched from the pain. She looked around to see another bed but this one had a sheet blocking it from view. She sighed as she wondered what had happened. All she remembered was being attacked by a giant lion and then being saved by her father before passing out and waking up in the bed she currently laid.
She got up and walked over to the door. She opened the door and looked around. "Hanabi," a voice from inside the room said making her jump. She turned to see her father peeking at her from inside the sheet.
"Dad!" Hanabi said running back into the room and over her father. "Are you okay?" she asked.
"I'm fine," Luffy said smiling. "It's just a minor cut wound to my back. I'll be fine once I rest for a few more hours."
"I'm sorry," Hanabi said. "If only I was stronger, I could have fought by myself and not have had to worry you."
Luffy put a hand on her head. "It's okay," Luffy said. "Vivi and I would worry about you even if you were stronger. That's just how parents can be." Hanabi nodded but still looked a bit down. "Want to hear a story about my travels?"
Hanabi looked up and quickly nodded. She hadn't heard one of her father's stories for months now. Needless to say she was excited to hear another. Luffy had decided to tell her about when he and the rest of his crew were defeated by Bartholomew Kuma, and how they got back together after training for two years and were several times stronger.
After the story Hanabi had a look of determination on her face. "Dad, can you train me to use the attacks that you use?" Hanabi asked. "I want to travel around the world and get a pirate crew of my own! I want to become the Pirate King!"
Luffy laughed at his daughter's statement. She was just like him in more ways than other people thought. "That's going to be hard since I'm the pirate king right now," Luffy said.
"That's fine," Hanabi said. "My crew will defeat yours and we will gain the title!"
"You also have to find the One Piece," Luffy said. "It's the ultimate treasure. I hid it in a different world than this one so you have to search for in even more than I did."
"That's fine I'll definitely find it!" Hanabi said.
"Alright," Luffy said. "I'll train you!"
"Yeah!" Hanabi cheered.
- 6 Years Later -
"I can't believe this is happening again," Makino said with a smile on her face.
"I still wish that she'd leave a few years later," Vivi said. "But apparently she is as strong as Luffy when he left so…"
"Well brute strength no," Makino said. "But in speed and agility she is definitely up there where Luffy was."
"I just hope she'll come home safely," Vivi said.
Hanabi was standing in her new row boat. She was wearing clothes similar to Luffy's when he started his journey. She wore a light blue sleeveless shirt and blue shorts. She now had a scar under left eye matching her fathers.
- Nefertari D. Hanabi, 12 years old, Princess of Alabasta & Pirates -
She felt a hand on her shoulder and turned to see her father. "Dad," she said happily.
"Hanabi, I wanted to give you three things," Luffy said. "The first thing is this." He handed her a box. "Don't open that until you get at least two more crewmates. The second gift will be in there too." Luffy then took off his straw-hat and put it on her head. "The third gift is my straw-hat."
Hanabi was shocked. "But…"
"Make us proud," Luffy said before backing away from the boat to go stand next to Vivi. Vivi stepped forward and put a backpack down on the bottom of the boat and gave Hanabi a tight hug.
"Stay save and don't get caught by the marines," Vivi said.
"I won't mom," Hanabi said tears starting to form in her eyes.
Vivi back away to stand by Luffy. "We love you Hanabi," they said at the same time. "Oh make sure you stop by Alabasta and say hi to your brother and Marianne!" Vivi added.
"Okay mom," Hanabi called as she pushed her boat away from shore. "I love you!" She turned away from the island and whipped the tears out of her eyes. "Alright!" Hanabi cheered. "Let's start the adventure! I will become the next Pirate King!"
