---Disclaimer: I don't own One piece or Ranma 1/2 soo there.
Ranma sighed for the umpteenth time as looked across the sea.
No matter how many times he looked at it he couldnt help but grimace.
A dog for the marines. Him! Of all people. He looked around the table at
the other Dogs. Jimbei the fish man. Crocodile the sand pirate. Hawk eye Mihawk.
Moria. Donquixote Doflamingo. And Bartholomew Kuma.
The Marines even gave them titles Shichibukai. Warlord of the sea yeah thats what he envisoned for himself.
He smirked to himself, If Roger saw him now. He paid little interest to the talk around him with the exception of Kuma, Jimbei, Mihawk and Hancock, he didn't trust anyone there. And hancock never showed to the meetings
Maybe it was time to go rogue. Jimbei didn't seem to like this setup either. Ranma looked at a wanted paper in his hand that the others discarded as non important.
"Monkey D. Luffy, huh?" He whispered to himself. Dragon's son no doubt.
He glanced at Mihawk who instantly caught his eye.
Ranma got up and excused himself and left the deck of the marine vessel he was on.
Shortly after Mihawk followed.
" You have something to ask me?" Mihawk asked as soon as they were alone.
Ranma nodded and produced the wanted poster with Luffy's face.
"I recall you once mentioning that you met a swordsman who would be a foe to contend with. And a young boy who claimed he would become the pirate king?"
Mihawk nodded." Of course that swordsman needs to get to the Grand line and experiance more battles, as well as the captain. But I do not disagree with the boy's statement, one day he will become the king of the pirates."
Ranma stared the shorter man down a while Mihawk not flinching under Ranma's Gaze. Ranma internally smiled Mihawk knew how powerful he really was, and was still not afraid of him. Plus Mihawk did not seem to have a Devil fruit ability. It was the reason why Ranma liked him.
" You plan on interfering?" Mihawk said. He did not relish fighting Ranma. The boy was stronger than Shanks.
Ranma looked serious for a minute. " You know I hear mumblings that Crocodile has a group of pirate bounty hunters on his payroll. Baroquewalkers, Correct? " Not waiting for a response he pushed on. "I also hear he's headed to Alabasta to Aquire it it's at war you know."
Mihawk nodded wondering where he was going with it all.
"Did You also know he has the woman who supposedly the demon of the sea's Nico Robin? We are under orders to capture and destroy her. I daresay that Crocodile does not have peoples best interest at heart."
Mihawk nodded again knowing where this was headed.
"As a Shichibukai I think i should investagate these rumors. We don't want CP9 getting involved in world politics again. You should find Shanks and tell him that boy he rescued will become the king of the pirates."
Ranma started to walk away " And I will see to it that that becomes a reality." He shot over his shoulder.
Getting into a small boat Ranma started out to sea. He knew that once Shanks got word that he was helping Luffy, Shanks would probably try to stop him. But Ranma made a Promise to Roger. And there is one thing that Ranma D. Saotome does it's keep his promises.
Tbc..
Chapter two coming soon.
