A/N: My first One Piece Fanfic, I've had this idea in my head for a while now and so I've finally decided to write it. Inspired by UnknownOnePieceFan Story, One Piece: Shippuden. I highly encourage anyone who reads this to read that story first since I'm going off that story to a certain point in it. I have three main parts of this story in mind with a couple of fillers but chances are they'll be out of order (in which they're released). Also characters are probably OOC.

I don't own One Piece.

Emperor's Arrival

Usopp was in the crow's nest on look out while the other Straw Hat Pirates were below going about their daily things. Zoro was asleep, Robin was reading a book while Chopper was listening to Brook's skull jokes and Franky was tending to the ship while Sanji was out on the deck doing manual labor for Nami.

Nami checked the log pose and studied the map. It was foggy so it was difficult to see some of her surroundings. The past couple of days were horrible for her. Her idiot Captain had left the crew and she blamed herself for it, but she vowed to bring him back and to apologize to him saying that she really didn't mean what she said. She remembered it so very clearly.

If you couldn't even save Ace, your own brother, how could ever expect to save one of us if we EVER were captured!

The crazy weather of the Grand line had finally taken a toll on her. All Luffy did was an accident and she knew he would never hurt her treasure on purpose. She wasn't in the right state of mind then. He knew that he would charge in headfirst for any of them no matter how dire the situation was or even care for his own safety.

"Luffy…" Nami said with tears starting to form in her eyes. She knew exactly what he was going through. To watch someone you love die right in front of you was earth shattering. He had saved and made her one of his crew, his nakama and now she would save him. She knew she could never repay that debt but for now all she wanted was for him to comeback.

"ZORO!" Usopp screamed as loud as he could.

That brought Nami out of her tranche and all the crew members looked up at Ussop.

"M-M-Mihawk!" Usopp managed to stutter out as he was approaching the ship. The crew rushed to the side of the ship.

"Oye Moss head what's he doing here?!" Sanji shouted at Zoro.

"Hell if I know but if he wants a fight…" Zoro unsheathed his swords and was in a fighting position. "I'll give him one."

Mihawk boarded the ship and looked directly at Zoro. "Roronoa-"

"You come here to figh-"

"Stop!" Mihawk addressed Zoro sternly. "What's about to happen is bigger than me and you so I'm only going to ask once, stay out of it!"

"Huh, what are you talking about?" Zoro confused by this and wondered why Mihawk would show up for no reason and tell him to stay out of something? Just then a massive ship pulled up alongside the Thousand Sunny with a Jolly Roger with a red mark on it.

The whole grew gasped and knew who it belonged to. It was none other than the Red-Hair pirates.

"Guys!" Usopp screamed. "It's the Red Hair Pirates!"

"OH, REALLY!" the whole crew yelled back at Usopp with shark like teeth.

Nami suddenly realizing this was excited. Luffy might be on there she thought. She knew that Luffy and Shanks had a past so she could only assume that Luffy would go to him. But why was Mihawk here and what did he mean by "stay out of it?"

As soon as the ships were aligned up just right four figures jumped from the massive ship onto the Thousand Sunny.

"Well, the Straw Hat Pirates." The whole crew looked and as the fog cleared around the figures they saw the Emperor Shanks. "I'm sorry we had to meet like this but certain events have well…forced my hand." The other three men beside him smirked at his comment. Lucky Roo was eating while Benn Beckman studied the Straw hat crew.

Usopp managed to come down from the crow's nest.

"D-Dad" Usopp was overjoyed at this and was on the verge of tears. The crew saw this and was happy for him. They knew he wanted to meet up with his father someday and be able to tell him of the exciting adventures he'd been on and tell him of his bravery.

Yasopp gave his son a quick smile but then stared at him. It was like they were having a conversation.

"Guys, we might want to stand back." Usopp said in a serious manner. He rarely acted like this.

"So, Cat Burglar Nami you're the girl." Shanks stared at her.

"Huh? What girl, what do you mean?" Nami asking surprised.

Something was off and Zoro could feel it. He exchanged glances with Robin and she felt it too.

"You're the one who hurt Luffy." Shanks saying with anger.

"Is he on your ship? Please let me talk to him I want to-"

"NO! You think I'd let him talk to you after what you did. I won't forgive anyone who hurts my friends. That look in his eyes, the cold, dark, and broken look is because of you and now he's off doing something reckless." The weather around them began to grow darker and colder.

"Where is he?" Her mind was racing. Where did he go, and what did he do this time.

The Straw hat crew had a bad feeling about this. Something was about to happen.

"You don't deserve to know. I'm not here to tell you that or to talk about Luffy with you. I'm here for my hat." Shanks said with a serious and demanding tone.

Nami was taken aback by this. She was wearing Luffy's Straw hat. And now one of the most powerful pirates ever was asking for Luffy's Straw hat. She knew that it originally belonged to Shanks but she would never think he would ask for it back.

"No, I'm not giving you this hat." Nami said with determination. It belonged to Luffy and he entrusted her with it and she would protect it with her life.

"I can tell that you mean that. It's honorable protecting one's personal treasures no matter the cost." Shanks smirked at this "You leave me no choice then." Shanks drew his sword.

Nami prepared her clima-tact and pushed the Straw hat up a little.

"Hey, Red Hair if you want a fight then-" Sanji was cut off by two swords blocking his path. One belonged to Zoro the other was Mihawk's.

"Sanji, stay out of this!" Nami yelled at Sanji.

"W-What's going on?" Chopper asking scared and was confused at the moment while hiding behind Usopp's leg.

"Don't worry chopper." Robin said reassuringly. "Everything will turn out fine." She had a feeling what was about to happen.

Nami gripped her Clima-tact took a deep breath. Luffy, I will save you she thought.

Shanks rushed forward at incredible speed. Nami took a few a steps and swung her Clima-tact.

"Hey Usopp can that thing handle a sword like that!" Sanji asked a little annoyed. Just then a loud clash could be heard then multiple clashes.

The sky rumbled at the first clash and it suddenly divided.

"The heavens have split." Robin looking up at the sky.

The whole crew looked up in amazement. Robin was right the sky was split in two.

How was she capable of that Zoro thought. She didn't have any swordsman training and to be able to block and parry one of the strongest swordsmen was unbelievable.

"Roronoa, does that girl have any training with the use of swords?" Mihawk asked curiously.

"None that I know of." Zoro was still stunned at the sight in front of him.

Nami was blocking Shank's attack and somehow holding her own while moving at an incredible speed. How am I doing this she thought. She was predicting Shank's moves and her Clima-tact hadn't even gotten a scratch. It was like she was acting on her instincts she didn't knew she had.

"She seems to be on the same level as me and Shanks." Mihawk said.

Shanks managed to step a couple feet back and swiped his sword in the air which caused a red light to emerge from it and head straight toward Nami.

Nami swung her Clima-tact and lighting came out. The red light from Shank's sword made contact with the lighting and both seemed to be equally powerful. Nami rushed forward and her weapon connected with Shank's sword.

"I won't let you have this hat! OVER MY DEAD BODY!" Nami screamed. There was a powerful aura around here. Then her eyes changed. A powerful force swept throughout the Thousand Sunny.

The crew was shocked at this.

"Yo-Hohoho is that what I think it is?" Brook saying amusingly.

"It is, well it seems Nami has conqueror's haki." Robin said.

"Wow that is SUPA!" Franky striking a pose while saying that.

"Congratulations Nami." Shanks said with a friendly tone. He swept his sword and disarmed Nami. Nami was surprised by this. Could he have done that throughout the whole fight she thought. "I'm sorry to say this but you're about 50 years too early to defeat me." Shanks said with a smile and sheathing his sword. The weather cleared up around both ships.

"Well, Cat Burglar Nami I'm impressed." Mihawk said. "I would have never guessed someone else could match my strength or Red Hairs."

"Haha oh wow, that was some fight. It almost reminded me of our fights Mihawk. Haha" Shanks said in a cheerful mood.

"Yes, it appears she might actually be the one who could pull it off." Mihawk saying in a more serious tone.

"I have no doubt at that." Shanks with said with a smirk on his face.

"Alright what the Hell was that! Why did you fight my Nami-swan!" Sanji said angrily.

"I wanted to see she her true strength and determination and know how far she would go to protect that hat."

"So this was all for Luffy's Straw hat!" Sanji yelling angrily.

"No you stupid love cook!"

"You wanna go moss head!"

"Bring it!"

Before either of them could move another muscle the temperature dropped. Nami had a demonic Aurora around her. They both stopped immediately. If she could take one of the three Emperor's there's no telling what she could really do.

Robin giggled at this. "If you could Emperor Shanks why don't you tell us why you're really here?"

"Of course, however I apologize for putting you through that Nami, I just wanted to see what you were truly capable of. So, Luffy's dream was to become the Pirate King, what does every King need?"

The crew started to guess.

"A SUPA castle!"

"A lot of food if we're regarding Luffy." Sanji said

"Braves warriors to fight alongside him."

"Yo-hohoho, music" Brook pulling out his violin.

"Um, I don't know what do you think Robin?" Chopper asked curiously.

Robin smiled. "A Queen of course."

Oh ya the crew said together but then it suddenly hit them.

"WHAT!" Everyone screamed comically with the exception of Robin and Zoro. He was too stunned at the statement.

"Me, his queen?" Nami was surprised. A small part of her always wanted Luffy to ask her to be his Queen. They would be married and have kids. It was a small dream she held on to. Monkey D. Nami she thought to herself, The Queen of the pirates. She didn't realize it but she was blushing.

"Oh, man I just imagined the kids." Zoro shuddering at the thought.

"SHUT UP!" Nami screamed. She punched him with a little more force than intended and sent him flying across the deck through a wall.

"Nami-swan is so cute when she's angry." Sanji saying with hearts as his eyes.

"Well she can use haki with her punches." Shanks said nonchalantly. "Alright then, Straw Hats follow our ship, there's something Nami needs to see."

"What is it?" Nami asked curiously

"You'll see." Shanks said with a smirk on his face.

After an hour or so following the Red Hair pirates they had finally reached their destination. However, what was in front of them was a thick cloud of fog. Nami managed to clear some of the fog with her Clima-tact and both ships were able to dock safely at the island inside the fog but it was difficult to see what exactly was in front of them.

"Nami on this island in the middle of it is something that you need to see and only you can see it."

"Hold on, what if Nami-swan runs into any danger. I want to go with her."

"That island is perfectly safe. I personally make sure of that."

"Red Hair is right, this island is under the protection of the Red Hair pirates and I've personally been on this island before there is nothing dangerous here." Mihawk said. Only relics he thought.

"I'll be fine Sanji. Robin, look after everyone while I'm gone."

"Mihawk, what's on this island?" Zoro asked.

"A remnant from an old time and a legacy." Mihawk simply stated.

Nami jumped off the Thousand Sunny and began to walk towards the middle. She started to see something off in the distance and when she could finally make it out and was up close to it she felt like fainting. Her legs felt weak and she was on her knees. She was on the verge of tears but she suddenly felt a hand on her shoulder. Her heart skipped a few beats when she looked over her shoulder. Her hands were shaking at the sight.

"It's you…"

A/N: So there you have it. I know there probably a lot of mistakes in this but someday I'll get around to fixing them. First fight scene so hopefully I did well. Review if you want, lurk I don't care. Personally I always lurk. Flame if you want but hey, you read it. At least three more chapters to go. Also one last thing the "Oh man I just imagined the kids" is from Straw Hat Theater 2: Our Mrs. Monkey.
