Yami no Kaizoku (Rewritten)
There once was a man named Gold Roger who was king of the pirates. He had fame, power and wealth beyond your wildest dreams. Before they hung him from the gallows these were the finally words he said.
"My fortune is yours for the taking but you'll have to find it first, I left everything I own in one piece."
Ever since pirates from all over the world have sent sail for the grand line, searching for one piece the treasure that would make their dreams come true.
- I do not own One Piece or any of it characters. I own only the one's I've created.
The sun was shining brightly, there was no a cloud in the sky. The wind was calm and relaxing, perfect for sail and not only that the sea was as blue as always. Everything seemed calm until-
"CAPTAIN!"
The scream was barely heard over the sounds of battle as two pirate ships were caught in a death struggle. There was certainly a difference between the two ships, one was smaller and completely black while the other was larger and covered in various colors. Not only were the ships different in both size and color but there is also an enormous difference between the amount of crew. On the bigger ship were about 30 crew members while the smaller ship only had 5. A very one sided battle indeed, the person who screamed was a woman. She had dark brown hair that fell to her mid-back and forest green eyes which were now narrowed harshly at a group of pirates who had her surrounded. She was wearing white blouse which cut off at her stomach and tan colored shorts and boots. Tightly gripped in her hands was a large butcher knife.
"Now, what're yer going ta do with that?" Mocked one of the rogue pirates.
The woman just smirked smugly. "You wanna find out? Then come at me!"
As commanded the rogues ran to attack. She brought the knife up and waited. Just as the pirates were in arm length, she suddenly swung the knife; the knife cut clean through the air but never touched one of them. Instead a gale hit them like small daggers and knocked them back like leaves. They looked at her with shock and fear.
"You! You ate a cursed fruit?"
The woman smirked deviously.
"Yup, the name's Kansaki and I will be kicking your ass this fine morning!" She said smugly before throwing herself back into battle.
A little farther up on the smaller ship another woman was surrounded by a slightly larger group of pirates. She on the other hand, was completely stoic, her shoulder length silver hair blowing gently in the wind. She was wearing a short sleeved black kimono top with red trimming which fell over her skin tight black pants. She had two swords drew, ready for any attack. Her hands were clad in black fingerless gloves and lastly to end her outfit were black boots with red laces. Suddenly every sound died down and at that moment, she swung her swords so graceful and quick. None of the pirates could defend themselves from her speed and were easily defeated by her sword.
"Great job, Mizuki."
Mizuki turned her amber eyes in the direction of Kansaki who had finally caught a break from fighting.
"Where are the captain and Jin?"
Kansaki shrugged her shoulders.
"Hell if I know, knowing them, they're probably-"
Her voice was drowned out by the deafening sound of terrified screams as both their heads turned to the enemy ship. Two figures walked out from the inside of the other ship. One was a man with a fox like grin which seemed permanently attached to his face. He was wearing a grey kimono top with black pants. He held a shot gun in one hand and a handgun in the other. He had wavy jet black hair and beautiful crimson eyes that sparkled in the sun's rays. Walking calmly behind him was a woman who had long black hair with fell to her mid waist, the tips bleed red. Her hazel colored eyes were staring straight in front of her, glaring coldly at all the rogue pirates around. She was wearing a sleeveless v-cut white top which tied behind her neck and black shorts. Over her top was a black trench coat and to end her wardrobe were a pair of black boots. On both thighs were holsters for knifes and also she had a sword which was currently strapped to her back.
"Right this way, my lady." Said the man with his trademark smile.
"Thank you, Jin."
The woman the turned to the remaining crew of the rogue pirate ship, her eyes pierced their souls.
"If you choose to leave, I may reconsider destroying your ship."
"Who the hell do you think you are?" Yelled one of them.
"My name is Itsumi, captain of the Shadow Pirates."
All of the rouges instantly froze up after hearing Itsumi's introduction.
"Wait, y-you're t-that Itsumi? The one they said could take down an entire Navy fleet without a single scratch?"
"Seems like you've grown quite popular my lady?" Jin said.
Suddenly the pirates didn't seem too sure of themselves.
"It's too bad though, if only you had surrendered it might have saved you." Itsumi said coldly before raising one of her arms to the sky.
"W-wait m-maybe we can work this out!" Yelled another rogue.
"No…we can't"
Itsumi threw her arm down and a black crescent blade slashed along the path of her hand, slicing the ship into two. All four of them watched as the ship sunk into the sea. Kanzaki whistled before turning to her captain who had appeared with Jin onto the ship.
"Man, remind me never to piss you off." Kansaki said with a smirk.
Itsumi let out a brief chuckle.
"AH! Lady Itsumi!" A high pitched, feminine voice sounded.
The crew turned to see a small dog like creature run frantically out from the ship. The only thing was that the dog was walking on two feet and had clothes. It was about a child's size, light brown fur and bright blue eyes. It wore on a floral pink sun dress with a small backpack on its back.
"Ah Chime, I see you alright?" Itsumi said with a soft smile as Chime ran over to her.
"I was so worried! I thought you guys were going to die and leave me all alone~!" She cried, small tears forming in the corners of her eyes.
Everyone smiled at the frightened creature. Itsumi bent over and petted Chime's head softly.
"Don't worry Chime, we're not going to leave you anytime soon."
Chime smiled brightly and nodded. Itsumi returned her nod and stood up then turned to Mizuki.
"Set a course for the nearest island. There we will restock alright?"
"Yes ma'm!" Her crew responded in choirs.
~Split Gun Island~
"LUFFY!"
A loud scream rang through the calm silence which woke up a young man who was sleeping happily aboard an oddly shape ship. The boy had wild jet black hair and coal black eyes. He had on a simple red shirt and rolled up blue pants. He stood up, looking around confused to where the voice had come from.
"Over here Luffy!"
Luffy turned his head to his right and walked over to the edge of the ship to see a young woman with short bright orange hair and such a dark shade of brown that it appears black standing on the docks. She was wearing tan shorts and light blue blouse. She was tapping her foot, arms crossed over her chest waiting for Luffy to come down. A huge grin broke out on Luffy's face and he yelled waving his hands wilding to her.
"HEY NAMI!"
He then suddenly jumped from where he was off the ship ad landed gracefully on the dock below.
"I was wondering when you'd wake up." Nami said with a smile.
Luffy finally noticed that they were in a town which he didn't recognize.
"Hey, where are we?"
"This is Spilt Gun Island. It's a pirate town no doubt but there are quite a lot of things here. And since we're low on stocks we decided to gather all we needed and get out of here."
"So where are the others now?"
"Sanji buying food and other equipment, Zoro said he was going to see if there were any good swords he could buy. Usopp is gather material for his inventions, Chopper is out getting medicine and Robin said she was just going out for a walk. While I got stuck with the chore of waking you up since we all know that when you did wake up, you'd be hungry."
At the mention of food, Luffy's eyes light up and suddenly his nose caught the scent of something good. He then proceeded in the direction of the smell while Nami called to him for a last minute warning.
"Luffy, if you're not back here by the afternoon we're leaving you even if the whole town is after you."
She knew it was no use trying to talk to him but maybe some of the stuff she says gets to him.
"… Ha like that'll ever happen." She said with a sigh.
She gave one finally pray that they would be able to leave here without the town behind halfway destroyed and the town's people trying to tear them limb from limb.
~Split Gun Bar~
Loud chatter rang out through the bar, pirates; mercenary's alike were in this bar. Itsumi let out a loud sigh, leaning back in her chair. She was so happy to have found this town since they were low on ammo and medicine. So Chime and Jin sent out to get everything, Kanzaki was most likely getting info on where they are and where they should go next. Mizuki was either buying herself new swords or getting into a fight. Itsumi took a sip of her drink as she looked around the bar. No one seemed to be looking her direction except for few tables which were full with pirates. They were all looking over to her in a perverse manner. She scoffed, taking another sip of her drink. Out of the corner of her eye she saw Mizuki walk into the bar. As she passed by some table's whistled and cat called to her but she ignored them and made her way over to Itsumi.
"Captain, you'll never guess who I found?"
Itsumi raised an eyebrow at Mizuki confused on what she was saying. Mizuki then pulled out a poster with a boy with wild black hair and a huge grin. A smirk tugged to her face.
"I finally found you, Monkey D. Luffy."
Luffy had finally finished eating and now was wandering completely bored out of his mind. He had a couple more hours before Nami said they would leave and now the problem was what to do? Luckily for him the decision was about to be made for him because as he turned the corner arriving to the main road, he saw a large crowd of people standing around, from what he could hear someone was having a very intense argument. His curiosity got the better of him so he wandered over. He managed to squeeze his way through the crowd to see what was going on. A woman with dark brown hair and forest green eyes was glaring up a man who had the build of a bear, bulky and tall. He was glaring down as the woman with his arms crossed over his chest.
"Look I keep trying to tell you, I didn't steal anything from you!" The woman cried.
"And I keep tell you, that you're lying!"
"Is there something wrong?"
Suddenly the crowd broke apart to allow another woman to enter the argument. This woman had long black hair that fell to her mid waist. Her hazel eyes were looking from the man to the woman.
"Captain!"
"This is you're Captain?" The man asked in disbelief that such a fragile beauty could be a captain.
"Yes, I am. What seems to be the problem?"
"She stole something from me and I demand to have it back!"
"I keep trying to tell you dumbass I didn't steal shit!"
"What did you say wrench!"
"Sir, please don't speak like that to my norikumi."
"I don't give a damn what you say! I'll just take my treasure back!"
The man then reached to grab the brown haired woman but was stopped by the black haired woman's hand grabbing his wrist. He glared in her direction and went to pull his hand back but found it was stuck in the woman's iron grip. He stared wide eye at her, never before had he seen such strength especially from a woman of her build.
"You dare raised a hand at my crew?"
"Go to hell!"
The man then raised his other hand and went to strike but Luffy felt that now would be a good time to step in. So he winded back his arm before letting it snap out.
"Gum Gum rocket!"
The man didn't even get to defend himself before being knocked senseless by Luffy's rocket punch. Now that the man was out of the way, Luffy walked over to the two woman to make sure they were ok by this time the crowd had dispersed.
"Hey are you alright?"
"I'm fine thank you so much!"
The black haired woman gave him a genuine smile. He grinned and nodded before starting to walk off but stopped cold at a clicking noise. Luffy suddenly ducked, luckily for him just in time from getting his head chopped off. He then flipped away from the woman as she slashed again in his direction. When he landed he turned to her with a pout/frown.
"What the big idea?"
The woman ignored him, going on the offensive. She slashed and hacked through at him, and he not so easily dodged her attacks and tried some of his own. Just as the battle was getting heated a scream interrupted it.
"Monkey D. Luffy, what the hell do you think you are doing?"
The scream sent a shiver down Luffy's spine because he instantly knew who it was. He turned to see his crew staring at him; Nami being the one who screamed stormed over. She grabbed him harshly by the ear.
"What did I tell you about causing trouble?"
"But Nami, this time I didn't do anything, that woman attacked me!"
Instantly his crew members flinched, now completely aware of the woman as a possible threat. Suddenly the woman let out a good heartily chuckled, a smile gracing her face.
"Don't worry; I wasn't out to kill him or anything like that."
Luffy frown deeper as he looked at the woman.
"Who are you?"
The woman gave Luffy as sad smile.
"You really don't remember me do you Luffy?"
Luffy looked at the woman for a few minutes and thought hard then suddenly his eyes widened in remembrance.
"No way! Is that really you, Itsumi?"
The sad smile disappeared as a happy one took its place.
"I'm so happy that you remember me Luffy."
