Okay so this is my new One Piece fanfic! This story's events occur in the real world, where members of Strawhat crew work on a police station. Sanji is a new police at the station where there are two beautiful ladies and rest of them are bunch of idiots. Sanji can't help but wonder how these people are police in the first place...
No pairings, just slight hints of BL which might be considered as friendship :) Rating is M because of mental and physical violence in the chapters :3
Some of the characters in this fanfic are from the New World arc so please watch out for spoilers! :) I recommend you to read One Piece fully before reading this fanfic so that it's easier for you to understand this but if you are not afraid of spoilers I think you can understand this fanfic even without reading whole manga
I will update this fanfic a little slower than my earlier fanfics because I have still one other on-going fanfic and the chapters are longer than I am used to write! :D
:)
Sanji thinking or cursing by himself :P
...
Sanji stepped trough the door to his new work place. His former boss, sergeant Zeff, had kicked him out, saying that he lacked some talent. Sanji would have loved to stay at the Baratie's Police Station but apparently it hadn't been possible. He had also heard a gossip that the station was short of money so they needed to fire some people, but his colleagues Patty and Carne were able to keep their jobs.
First thing he saw when he stepped inside the station was a beautiful, black-haired woman sitting behind the desk. She was probably a little under 30 years old.
"What can I do for you?" She asked gently, smiling slightly.
"I am the new police officer, please call me Sanji," the blond introduced himself and the woman chuckled slightly when the man offered his hand.
"My name is Robin. Please go ahead, go upstairs. There should be people working at this time of the day. Sergeant's office is in the end of the room," the secretary adviced and Sanji smiled at her before looking for stairs.
Finding the sergeants office was pretty easy. Well, the beautiful lady at the front desk had given him clear directions. He knocked the door carefully and after a moment of silence, the door opened.
He was greeted by a young-looking, energetic man. He had a short, black hair and a scar under his eye. "Oh! You must be the new guy!" the man greeted.
"Morning. I was looking for sergeant Monkey..." Sanji explained himself but noticed how stupid it sounded. Then he realised that the name described the person in front of him somehow. "Could you possibly be...?"
"That's me!" Sergeant Monkey D. Luffy greeted the man. "Come on in, new guy!"
"My name is Blackleg Sanji," Sanji introduced himself to make sure he wouldn't be called as a 'new guy' for the rest of his career.
"I am Monkey D. Luffy, but call me Luffy or Captain-san!" his new sergeant grinned widely.
"Okay...Captain-san?" Sanji said, hesitating a little but seeing the bright smile on his face he relaxed.
"So I heard you were kicked out of your previous job?" Luffy asked directly.
"That's right..." Sanji sighed. "I had worked there for a long time and I have known sergeant Zeff for a long time... he probably thought that I needed some work experience at some other Police Station."
"But it was a perfect timing for us! Our officer Zoro just returned back to work but he doesn't have a partner anymore so you will take her place!" Luffy explained, nodding his head repeatedly.
"Returned? Did he have a holiday of some sort of?" Sanji inquired but he didn't want to be too rude.
"Well, not really...he will tell you himself!" Luffy said, his tone suddenly changing for a while. "Hey Zoro!"
Not really, eh? I wonder what kind of a guy my new partner is...
Soon the door was opened by a strong-looking guy with green hair. He was wearing a casual office clothes but his shirt was mostly unbuttoned, revealing a green haramaki covering his stomach.
"Is this the new guy?" the guy who was apparently Zoro inquired.
"Yup!" Luffy said cheerfully.
"I am Blackleg Sanji," Sanji stood up and introduced himself to his new partner.
"Roronoa Zoro. Do you need him here?" Zoro turned to face the sergeant who shoke his head. Then he grabbed Sanji by collar and pulled him out of the room."Then let's go. We have work to do!"
"I have feet on my own, you don't need to pull me!" Sanji hissed at the man and struggled out of the strong hold.
"You have feet? That's surprising!" his partner said in a mocking tone.
This guy...I have a feeling I am not going to get along with him!
Soon Sanji was introduced to the other officers present. There were a pair of older police officers, Franky and Brook, who had a long career as policemen. They had both been kicked out from their earlier jobs and they had had difficulties in getting a new job because of their ages. Luckily, Luffy had asked them to join his police forces. Well, Franky was also accused of being a pervert but Luffy didn't seem to care about such a trivia things.
He had already met the secretary Robin but there was yet another beauty working in the building. Her name was Nami and she was in the training grounds, practising some shooting. She didn't really have time to chat with the newbie but she stopped her training for the introduction at least. Her partner was a sniper called Usopp but he wasn't present at the moment. They also had a police doctor Tony Chopper but he was visiting another station.
After the short introductions, Sanji's new partner gave him immediately a huge pile of paperwork. "What's this?!" Sanji cursed out aloud.
"It's paperwork. Haven't seem them before?" Roronoa Zoro teased the blond.
"Ha Ha, really funny," Sanji fake-laughed and started his work. He saw his partner blink in surprise. "What, you didn't expect me to get to work immediately?"
"Well, usually we are hiding our paperwork under our tables...Luffy doesn't notice anything..." Zoro explained and rubbed his neck. He wasn't exactly feeling comfortable about this confession.
"Are you all idiots or something? Work can't be done like this!" Sanji hissed and opened the first file. He looked at the humongous pile in front of him desperately but he decided to clear his table before the day ended.
Well, my first impression of this place...isn't too good, actually...
...
The first day at the new workplace went pretty smoothly. His whole day was full of filling files and trying to make the pile of paperwork in front of him disappear. Somebody had brought him some coffee at some point but he hadn't paid much attention to it, he only noticed the tempting smell of caffeine.
"This is one hell of a workplace..." Sanji cursed out loud. He needed a smoke.
"Young people sure are energetic, yohohoho!" the older police officer Brook laughed. He had a pretty unusual laugh. "I would deal with that much paperwork probably inside a month!"
"Hey Skeleton! You are loosing your grip to work!" Franky mocked his partner, the stupid nickname probably referring to his partners skinny form.
"Sorry, Franky-san!" Brook apologiced but it didn't sound like he was genuinely sorry.
"So newbie, where did you come from?" Franky inquired.
"Eh?" Sanji voiced out. "I was working at the Baratie's station after my graduation but the shitty geezer kicked me out saying that I needed some change."
"At Baratie?!" Brook gasped. "But isn't that one of the most respected police stations?!"
"You are out of the career ladder, newbie!" Franky laughed and opened a bottle of Cola with his teeth.
Sanji pulled out his pack of cigarettes slowly. "I will go for a smoke," he informed the older police officers. His head was aching for smoke.
He put the cigarette between his lips, lit it and blowed it slowly.
Ah, this is the best...nicotine sure is great...
His hands were hurting from filling in too much files. The shitty geezer had never given him so much to do but it must be because he didn't want to stress him too much. He still saw him as a kid, not as a graduated police officer who could take care of his job.
He knew he still had a long way to go. He had only a year of work experience at Baratie so he was just a beginner in his work. Totally newbie, actually.
He had thought that his new work place would resemble Baratie a lot: strict order and strict schedule. He didn't want to admit it, but his new sergeant was a fool. Earlier that day he had ran around the building, asking for snacks and finally getting scolded by the beautiful female officer Nami. By the way she handled the situation, it was pretty normal behaviour from their boss.
Then there were also those older officers, Franky and Brook. Brook had a huge afro and he spent a lot of time combing it. On the other hand, Franky had a blue, wild rockabilly hair which nobody in his age should have. And he was walking around in the office without his trousers and his shirt wide open. He tried to explain that he was feeling hot but so was everyone else: it was summer, after all!
But his partner was the most annoying of all of them. He didn't even count the ladies into this weirdo-competition, of course. His partner was indeed a talented police officer, but he was also damn lazy. All he did during the day was fill in one file and that was only after Sanji had put some pressure on him.
It seemed like an utterly hopeless place to work in. He didn't know if he could stay there for a long time. Even though the ladies were there to save his day, all the men would spoil it.
...
The next day arrived and Sanji literally dragged himself back to work. His head was throbbing from the stress and he wasn't really happy to return back to his new work place. It had turned out to be one hell of a work place with lazy colleagues. Lazy colleagues always meant more work and he had already had enough to do yesterday.
He was prepared to greet the lovely secretary behind the desk but saw a new guy standing there, talking with the woman. The guy was small-sized for a man, he was wearing a pink hat and his uniform looked few sizes too big for him.
I bet hundred euros that this guy has to be a worker of this station!
"Ah! You must be the new guy!" The young man turned to face him slowly and shoke his hand. "I am Tony Tony Chopper, the police doctor working here!" he introduced himself. Chopper looked pretty young, actually. And he seemed pretty...normal too.
"I am Blackleg Sanji, and I am your new guy indeed!" Sanji introduced himself. He was actually getting used to introducing himself.
"How was your first day? And don't tell me that you didn't get along with Zoro...?" Chopper inquired and Sanji sighed. "Is it that bad?"
"Well, that guy is pretty distant and lazy and gets really annoyed when I ask him to do his job!" Sanji explained and Chopper nodded.
"Just give him a chance, okay?" Chopper asked nicely. "He might be a little hard to get along with and maybe a little bit stubborn but I think you will be fine!" Chopper reassured the newbie. "Then, I should get going, I just came to drop some files in here! See you again!"
"Sorry if I took your time," Sanji apologiced."See you again!" Sanji somehow really hoped that he would see the police doctor again soon because at the moment he was the only sane man around there.
"No problem! Bye!" the small doctor shouted before leaving the building.
Sanji greeted the lovely secretary and climbed up the stairs. It would be yet another long day in the office.
"Morning, Sanji-san!" Brook greeted the blond.
"Good morning to you too,"Sanji sighed and sat down to his place. He looked around the room for a while, checking if beautiful Nami had arrived but she was nowhere to be seen.
Their office was big enough for six officers. Franky and Brook had their desks in the corner right next to Luffy's own office and Zoro's and Sanji's desks were right next to them. Opposite of them there were two desks, another one was apparently for Nami and and the other for Usopp. He guessed that Chopper must have an own room because doctors needed some privacy for their patients.
Sanji relaxed in his chair and looked at his yet empty desk. Soon someone would run in and give him a pile of paperwork to do.
"Hey! Did you miss me already?!" a new voice shouted out. Sanji turned his head to look at the man whose nose was ridiculously long.
"Not exactly,"Franky said while pushing the new man out of his way."It was actually suupeer peaceful in here!"
"Usopp-san! How was your work trip?" Brook inquired, leaning against his table.
"It went well! The great Usopp-sama shot down enemies like a kid would catch ants!" he praised himself before he realised the new face in their office."Are you the new guy?"
Sanji was distracted by his long nose for a while before he offered his hand to greet the man and introduce himself. "Blackleg Sanji."
"Blackleg? That's cool name! You can call me Usopp!" the man introduced himself. "So...how did you end to this poor Police Station?"
"Old geezer back at Baratie decided to kick me out, that's all. And your boss offered me new job immediately after that," Sanji explained.
"That's how Luffy is..." Usopp nodded. "But hey, if you need any help in here, please don't hesitate to ask help!"
"Thanks," Sanji said simply.
Well, this guy isn't half bad...maybe there are some normal people in here after all!
"By the way, would you like to practise shooting?" Usopp suggested suddenly.
"That's a great idea!" Brook cheered.
"But...isn't your boss..." Sanji tried to stagger something but he had witnessed how normal logic didn't work in here.
"Well, our boss usually arrives at least an hour late so we don't need to worry about him!" Usopp grinned. "Hey Brook, could you stay in case of alarm?"
"Leave it to me, Usopp-san!" Brook vowed and the two of them headed towards the shooting hall.
"So...how do like your new partner?" Usopp inquired.
"Well, he is pretty stubborn bastard and I simply don't get along with him..." Sanji admitted.
"Try to bear with him for a while at least, okay? I know Zoro is hard to handle but please give him a chance," Usopp almost begged. He actually sounded somehow sad.
"Another one is asking me that during a one day...very well, I will try my best..." Sanji promised and the long-nosed man smiled.
Sanji wondered what was the big deal with "getting along with Zoro". It couldn't be a coincidence that two people had already asked him to bear with the stubborn partner. To him, it seemed like he was some sort of trouble maker who couldn't get along with people and his colleagues were desperately looking for someone fitting to be his partner.
Somebody was already practising shooting. The sound of a gun couldn't be mistaken to other sounds. Sanji and Usopp stepped in and saw the green-haired man trying to hit his goal. And he did.
"Eh...you are actually pretty good..." Sanji praised the man when he finished shooting. "What's your points?"
Zoro seemed to count his points for a while before he grinned. "New record is 82 points."
Sanji blinked in surprise. "Really? That's exactly the same as mine!" he couldn't believe the coincidence. "What about you, Usopp?"
"Oi, you don't even need to ask!" Zoro hissed."He never misses his targets!"
"Really?" Sanji blinked.
"That's right! I am a natural talent!" Usopp praised himself.
"Then I won't match against you," Sanji stated and turned to face Zoro."How about this: the looser has to do the winner's paperwork?"
Zoro seemed to hesitate for a while before he grinned."Bring it on!"
It was to be expected that their match would be really equal: they got the same scores almost all the time. It seemed like neither of them was going to win like that. They both had the strong shooting gesture and steady hand. It was as if they were twins!
"So...it's a draw?" Sanji stated when he counted their points. Both of them had exactly 82 points.
"It looks like it..."Zoro hissed and started to clean his weapon and Sanji sat down on the floor to do the same.
Finishing cleaning their weapons, they returned back to the office. Sanji greeted Nami who had arrived to her desk and she was handing out paperwork.
"And Zoro! This time you are going to do it!" Nami ordered strictly.
"But Nami!" Zoro hissed but apparently he had nothing clever to say in response.
"No 'buts'! You guys have to do your work at least when I am here, otherwise we can't get work done in time!" Nami explained and sighed deeply before returning to her place.
Everyone was actually working even though their sergeant hadn't arrived yet. It seemed like every male was scared of Nami somehow and didn't dare to leave job undone. Nami explained that if she wouldn't be there at least one day a week, they would have too much work to do at one go at the end of the month.
She was really happy to see that Sanji was working hard unlike the other males in the room. Of course her partner Usopp did his work according to schedule, but Brook, Franky and Zoro were lazy as hell. They could zone around whole day long and not even open their files. Their sergeant was too soft on them!
Nami had to leave job earlier than usual and the lazy-trio wasn't working anymore. Franky was sipping his belowed Cola, Brook was doing some origami and Zoro was napping, or at least trying to nap before Sanji hit him with a file.
"WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!" Zoro hissed, rubbing his head.
"That's for sleeping during work-hours!" Sanji hissed back at the man."Really, can't you do your job properly?! I am not going to do your job, just for you to know! Luffy didn't hire me to babysit you!"
