Alright here is the rewrite. Luffy will be able to basically teleport himself to far places just go with it please. Kuma has been a cyborg for a while but was still part of the Revolutionary Army. It starts off just after Thriller Bark but with a minor difference. Somethings will be different somethings will remain the same. I don't know how strong I am going to make Luffy but I hope you will enjoy this story. Also The Power Of The King WILL be updated when I get more time I apologize for not updating.
'Where was he?' He thought as he sat up and looked around.
He saw his signature straw hat on a table next to where he laid. He sat up slowly seeing if he could spot his crew or at the very least the owner of the house he was currently in. As he fully sat up that's when the headache hit forcing him to lean his back against the wall.
"Ow! What the hell?!" He seethed out between his clenched teeth.
After about five minutes the pain had become tolerable enough to move around. He stood to his full height of six feet. Looking down he saw that he was only in his plain black karate pants and not noticing any immediate injuries. He grabbed his straw hat and put it on.
'Now where am I? Where is my crew?... Wait the last thing I remember was jumping off that island before it-' Before he finished his thought he heard someone shout his name.
"Luffy"
He looked up to see Zoro, Brook, Chopper, and Usopp walking through the entrance of the house.
"Oi, how long have I been out?"
"You have been in and out for about five days, Luffy-san." said Brook.
Luffy raised an eyebrow at the talking skeleton before he remembered how eager he was to get Brook to join.
"Well that sucks. Since your here Brook I'm guessing that all the stolen shadows were returned to their rightful owners?" Brook nodded. "Well that's great."
With that he smiled and stretched his muscles noticing the were somewhat sore.
"So guys where are we?"
"We are on Bōru Island(1). It is a town full of merchants or something like that." said Zoro not really caring. Luffy waved his hand for them to continue.
"Right now we are in Rose's house. She was kind enough to allow us to stay here until you got better." said Usopp.
"Why didn't you guys just leave me on the ship? And where are Franky, Nami, Robin, and Sanji?" asked Luffy as they had all moved to a table and sat down.
"Well Franky is with the ship keeping it ready for when we leave. As for Nami and Robin, they are picking up supplies with Sanji there to make sure nothing happens." Explained Chopper with Luffy nodding.
As soon as Chopper had finished the front door opened and in walked a woman with dark red hair, average body, and a kind face.
"Oh hey Rose." said Chopper.
"Hello everyone." Said Rose and then saw Luffy. "I trust you are feeling better." she said with a smile.
Luffy nodded. "I don't mean to sound ungrateful but, why did you offer us your home?"
Rose smiled "Your friends are pretty convincing and from what I've gathered from being around you all are nice people."
'For the most part' Thought Luffy as he nodded. "Well Rose as soon as the others get back from shopping we will be out of your hair."
"It was nice to meet you guys. I trust you remember how to get back to the harbor correct?" Chopper and Brook nodded. "Well then I bid you safe travels as I must be off to work, bye." With that Rose left the Straw Hats alone.
"When will the others be back? I want to get out of here as soon as possible." stated Luffy.
"They left about two hours ago so they should be back soon." said Brook.
Luffy nodded while looking at the paw print on his hands.
The next twenty minutes were filled with explanations about what had happened after the fight with Gecko Moria. Luffy was interested with who Lola's mom is, but apparently she didn't give a name. Any further conversation would have to wait as the three other members walked in.
"Luff, you're up. Are you ok?" asked Nami and Robin while Sanji's body shook with all the weight of the supplies on his back.
"Yes, I'm ok. Let's get going shall we." said Luffy as they all headed out of the house. Sanji meanwhile glared daggers at Luffy for having to walk back down the cliff side.
As they got out the house Luffy immediately figured out how the island got its name. They were standing on top of a cliff that encircled a town at the base of it. He could make out four different entrances and exits for ships to get through. He followed his crew as they walked down a zig-zag trail carved into the mountain side. After walking for about twenty minutes the Straw Hats reached the town. They moved through the town trying to go unnoticed but news of Luffy's defeat of Moria must have surely reached this island by now. Sure enough The crew began to notice people began to whisper to one another while others just stared at them, some in awe others in fear.
"How much farther to The Bea(2)?" Questioned Luffy.
"It should be be two streets down then a left and then it's a straight shot." said Nami as they all picked up the pace.
They took off the way Nami had told them however, as they rounded the corner they saw 50 Marines waiting for them towards the end of the street.
"Straw Hat Luffy, I am Captain Sashi and I am here to brin- ugh" Anything else that the man was going to say was stopped as him and his crew were were blasted away by Luffy's Pressure Slap. 'We were only meant to hold you off until reinforcements arrived. We were just on patrol when we happened to stop here.' thought the Marines as they were sent flying. "I don't care who you are and I'm in a rush!"The crew didn't slow down at all as the ran to harbor and saw the Bea waiting for them with Franky coming out onto the deck.
"Oi, you guys got here right on time. We are ready to sail." said Franky as everyone got aboard and the ship headed off towards the cave that would lead them back out to sea. As they came out of the cave they saw the open sea looking forward to more adventure on their journey.
