ReaderBot2000 here ,well this is my first attempt to write literature! what better than a OP story ,after all OP has changed my life!
I sadly do not own One piece as Oda-Sensie who is a genius does :(
"I'll show you all how tough I am!" Luffy shouted as he glared at the pirates below him. Luffy was standing at the top of an anchored pirate ship, his thoughts mainly consisted of what's next.
"Look everyone, Luffy is going to do something funny again!" A pirate shouted as he was loading crates on the harbor.
"Go for it Luffy" A pirate wearing a yellow Straw hat with a red band around it encouraged Luffy with a huge toothy smile on his face as he took a sip of rum while sitting on one of the crates .
Luffy glared at the pirate before taking a deep breath and proceeding with the genius idea he thought of to prove how tough he is,which involved stabbing himself under his right eye.
"ARRRGHH!" Luffy tried to stifle a scream of pain but failed as he let out a loud grunt of pain while all the Pirates stared at him with a shocked look on their faces. They didn't expect that. Nobody ever did.
Shocked faces filled Luffy's vision, it was all he could see before slowly loosing consciousness and falling overboard .The last thing he heard before crashing into the water was a faraway sounding scream , "LUFFYYYYYYYYY….".
"He's not on the list" said a voice .
"What! What do you mean! Are you sure!?" said another voice urgently. It was filled with panic, unlike the first calm voice.
"Of course I am. Look for yourself" The first voice said ,as he shuffling through a clip of papers while looking at it "He's not on it"
"Oh man, that's it ,we are screwed ,how could this possibly happen!? I was so sure he was!" the second voice said while grabbing what's left from his balding hair .
"Mmmmm…" moaned Luffy as he placed his hand on his eyes ,protecting them from the bright light .
'what going on? last thing I remember is proving my manliness in front of Shanks and everybody ?' thought Luffy as two figures appeared in front of him. He couldn't tell any of their features because of the retina burning light that was shining directly at him, other than one of them had a pot belly like Lucky Roo ,and the other was a very thin figure .
"Crap he is awake! What do we do now?" yelled the big bellied man in a very panicked tone ,like he was going to be skinned alive any second now.
"Relax, we will just take him to the boss and see what he says ,I mean we both saw his name on the list" said the thin man in very calm manner almost as if nothing has happened .
"You're right, the boss should know what to do" said the fat man.
"Hello? Can someone please lower the curtains, its so bright in here" said Luffy who was now standing but sill shielding his eyes from the bright light.
"Oh sorry about that, here let me help you with that "said the thin man as he quickly swiped his hand in front of Luffy's face "there, that should do the trick" said the thin man as he now grabbed his short beard and started stroking it in admiration to what he just did.
"So who are you guys? What's going on? Where am I? I am bored, I am hungry" said Luffy as he opened his eyes to see two men dressed in white robes and sandals.
"now now ,aren't you the hyper one?" said the thin man as he sweat dropped to the bombardment of questions the boy was shooting.
"I'm a Malak as you can see" said the fat man while smiling and opening both the palms of his hands while showing himself.
"Milk? Ha? are you stupid or something ?" said Luffy as he started picking his nose.
"Uhh , I don't think he would know what that is " said the other man while looking the fat man.
"We are, how should I put this umm…fairies? yeah ...we are fairies" said the thin man as he folded his arms and looked at Luffy .
"Woah that's so cool ,I always wanted to meet one but grandpa said it was nonsense and that if I ever meet one then it would because he accidently hit me in the head too hard "said Luffy with eyes sparkling and jaw fully open at what the thin man said.
"…" both men just kept on looking at this boy wondering who the hell was this grandpa.
"So do you guys poop?" said Luffy while back to his bored face with his pinky in his nose.
"WOAH! WOW! REALLY!?That's the first thing that comes to your mind after meeting a fairy" said the fat man whose eyes where bulging out in shock .
"He isn't a bright one is he?" said the thin man as he sweat dropped again.
"Well anyways, let's get going" said the fat man.
"This won't hurt, you're just going to feel a bit sleepy" said thin man as he flicked Luffy's forehead.
"What are y…zzzzzz" Luffy fell asleep before he even could finish talking.
Suddenly Luffy woke up to see himself sitting on a chair in front of a wooden desk with a late thirties looking old man sitting across of it .The man had hairy hands ,with hair reaching all the way to his knuckles ,he had no facial hair what so ever except a thick unibrow and a sad attempt of a comb over his bald spot ,he was wearing the same get up as the two other men he met before who were standing next Luffy ,each on a side of his chair.
"Well what do we have here?" said the hairy old man .
"Oy hairy ossan, I want to go home, I'm getting bored" said Luffy who started whining while swinging his dangling legs back an forth .
"Hmmm, that is a problem kid, you see I'm trying to find a way to tell you some bad news in a gentle way." Said the hairy old man who now has a big vein popping on his forehead yet was still somehow calm 'who the hell is hairy you brat!' he thought to himself.
"I really appreciate your patience with him boss" said the thin man as was bowing slightly.
"Well now you have to always be calm and composed when trying to deliver news like this, especially to a little kid." Said the boss.
"Oy hairy ossan, how come you don't have any sorta beard like these two guys " said Luffy who was just saying anything that popped in his head, not realizing that he is saying the worst possible things to say to the boss .
'crap that kid had to say something about the boss's facial hair' thought the fat guy to himself as he started to panic 'he has been trying to grow one for years without a single hair on his face to show!'
"n-now b-be quite kid! Stop making fun of the boss!" said the fat man whose shaking in fear and biting his nails, as he boss now has sprouted a second vein with both of them throbbing now .
"What? Just saying "shrugged Luffy " besides, at least he has a big thick eyebrow " said Luffy who was trying to make the boss feel better by pointing out that he has SOME facial hair.
"well boy …I am sorry to say this …but unfortunately …I am afraid that…YOU ARE DEAD!" screamed the boss who was now steaming read with his eyes white and his teeth sharp like a shark as he has failed completely to stay calm as that was the last straw .
"EEEEEEHHHH!" Yelled Luffy whose brains and eyes are now popping out of his head.
"Now now boss you shouldn't lose your calm to a kid" said the thin man who had a massive sweat drop.
"What he means is that your soul was taken by accident "said the thin man trying to get back on topic.
"But I haven't even sailed with Shanks once" said Luffy who was still shocked .
"Well it was an accident, so we are trying to find a way to solve this problem ,so don't worry we will find a way to send you back" said the thin man who was trying to calm the boy.
"ah okay" said Luffy who was now picking his nose again ,back to his calm composure .
"How can you be so calm about this right away" shouted the fat man whose eyes are popping out now .
"Well you did say that you will bring me back" said Luffy confused by the outburst of the fat man.
"hahaha, I like you kid" said the boss "Shio and Sato ,I would like you to leave me alone with the kid" said the boss in a more serious tone now .
"yes sir" both men said unison.
"why don't you go find his body to fix this mess " said the boss who had a small tick mark for being interrupted mid sentence.
Luffy looked to his side to find that both men are now gone.
"Why don't you stay here kid, I mean it's much better here ,you don't feel any pain ,neither hunger nor worry. Just peace" said the boss who had a smirk on his face waiting for the kid to reply .
"No thank you" said Luffy right away.
"Why is that?" said the boss who had one side of his eyebrow raised Interested by the kid even more.
"because that sounds boring I want to live the life of a pirate and go on adventures and not stay here with a bunch of fairies " said Luffy as he looked directly into the boss's eyes and beyond while giving a faint smile .
"Is that so " said the boss, impressed by the kid's answer and the faint gleam of light that he saw in his eyes.
"And there Is no meat here" said Luffy while waving his hand casually.
"Ah well …"said the boss with a sweat drop realizing that this was probably the real reason.
"Sorry boss, it appears that his body was eaten by a sea king " said the thin man who appeared without Luffy's notice .
"Hmmm , just as I thought" said the boss who was now smoothing out his unibrow with his fingers subconsciously .
"why don't you fetch me a vessel the size of the boy " said the boss.
"b-but …are you sure boss?" asked Sato who was seemingly shocked by the command .
"Never than ever" said the boss right away, with a slight unimpressed look on his face.
"Listen Kid, hmm now what was your name again?" asked the boss.
"Me? I'm Monkey. " said Luffy with a big toothy grin .
"Ah Luffy is it? Well Luffy once the vessel is brought, you will enter it and you will immediately go back to your home" said the boss with a big smile after hearing his name .
'a .D. huh?' he said to himself 'I see ,no wonder'.
"How?" said Luffy "I thought my body was eaten by a sea king? Asked Luffy with his head tilted sideways.
"Well yeah but you see this vessel is made of material similar to human flesh, your kind won't be able tell the difference anyways." Said the boss as he is trying to explain this to the confused Luffy.
"You see it is made of …"
"ahh whatever "interrupted Luffy "so it's a mystery thing eh?" said Luffy who was smiling now .
"He is not very bright is he" asked the boss with a sweat drop.
"No he is not "smiled Shio ,while Sato was holding a body that looked just like an unconscious Luffy .
"Well Luffy all you have to do is touch that body and you will be back home" said the boss as he smiled .
"now remember ,no one can know about our little deal right here or else I have to take your soul back" said the boss while smiling trying to make his bluff seem real.
"Ah okay" said Luffy, who quickly touched the body and then the body disappeared with him as well.
A moment of silence passed in the office with no one saying anything .The boss took out a cigar lit it then leaned back on his arm chair with his feat resting on the table .
"Why did you give him a vessel?"Asked Shio "you should know that he had to stay here and face his misfortune for dying ,even if it was an accident ." said Shio as he eyed the boss waiting for an answer .
The boss took a puff of smoke then started coughing while tearing up, he then threw the cigar away mumbling something about how they always tasted like shit .
"misfortune? Accident ? Are you sure about that Shio ?" said the boss as he folded his arms behind his head and looked up .
"I don't understand " Said Shio who was smiling cunningly .
"Don't give me that crap you bastard I have been here too long not to realize what I saw " said the boss while smiling yet still looking up . "I don't know what's going over there, I mean who am I to question it. Besides ,that kid" paused the boss to add a dramatic effect to what he is about to say
"he had a look in his eyes that told me that he was destined for something …..something great and that it will be a bad thing for all of us if he stayed here. " said the boss as he was looking far in the distance busy with thoughts swimming in his ahead .
"You saw all of that In his eyes?" asked Shio in a slight mocking manner which made the boss loose his train of thought and look at Shio "you're not turning into a real fairy on me ,now are you?"Asked Shio as he glanced at Sato meaning that they are about to leave soon.
"hahaha " laughed the boss loudly as he broke his silence "speaking of fairies? Couldn't you come up with something better?" said the boss who was now facing them with a grin on his face.
"Bullshit, you just didn't want to deal with her didn't you?" Asked Shio in a blank manner .
"You got me "said the boss as he shrugged "she is such a bothersome person to deal with" said the boss as he picked a pen with a feather imbedded in it and started writing down some things.
"Well then ..." said Shio as he bowed slightly .
"see ya boss " said Sato as he raised his hand in a goodbye manner before they both left .
I am going to try to start writing as a hobby since reading the stories here has inspired me greatly ,so to all of you guys who keep posting stories for the past months or years I would like to say THANKYOU ! for inspiring me to get off my lazy ass and write a story of my own.
I am planning this to be a great twist to the original story as simply retelling it is stupid. This story will probably go on for a *takes a deep breath* very very very looong time.
Please tell me if there is any grammar or spelling mistakes as English was never my strongest subject.
Note:
Sato and Shio are japanese for sugar and salt :)
