AN i do not own harry potter or one piece
welcome to Blackfire, this is my one piece/harry potter crossover that starts before roger travels the grand line although i will be making slight changes in the One Piece world to accommodate this change, as the description said Harry will be a devil fruit user and keep his magic although it will be very different and almost useless against most DF users as their own devil fruit naturally will counter the magic.
also the pairing will be open either leave a review with your choice, there will eventually be a poll to decided who harry will be paired with and hedwig herself will return in the OP universe at somepoint
Chapter 1
Rebirth
Harry Potter age twenty-five floated through the void his face one of annoyance, he had died although the how was currently beyond him
Even being the master of death didn't prevent one from dying but it seemed it prevented them from moving on keeping them in a form of limbo "so why am I here" Harry asked as he continued to float before coming to an abrupt stop
"you died" came the expected answer causing Harry to sigh
"here specifically death" Harry asked as the cloaked figure appeared in front of him
"I … require help" came the hesitant answer causing Harry to blink in surprise, he had met death a dozen times throughout his short life and had never shown any emotion
"with" Harry asked, he wasn't getting roped into something ridiculous like Hogwarts again
"I am death, in japan I am the Shinigami, in England the grim reaper each place has a manifestation but have you considered that this is not the only world I work with" death asked causing Harry to blink, it made sense earth wasn't the only world in the universe capable to housing life and therefore death would have a hold upon the world
"it makes sense, but I'm dead" Harry stated
"in this universe yes" death answered causing Harry to gain a look of confusion
"universe as in another universe, like parallel or alternate universes" Harry asked
"yes, my master, within every universe I exist all deaths are but one, fragments of a whole" death answered "within one of these universes the balance has been upset due to a creation within a single world known as devil fruits" death began
"I cannot tell you how they were created but I can tell you about them, devil fruits are creations that gift the eater unique powers" death began to explain "there are three types of devil fruits that also have sub types" death stated causing Harry to nod
"the first is paramecia which is the most common type within the world, it can grant the eater super human abilities or traits, it can also completely change the eaters body allowing them to manipulate it such as a being made of rubber or allow them to generate substances such as wax among other things" death said as he gave a very basic premise of the paramecia devil fruit
"ok so if I ate one of those I could control time" Harry asked
"no, you could slow them down but not control time, I know of many examples, but I cannot reveal much" death stated before continuing "some paramecia types can control their bodies weight or sprout limbs from anywhere although the user could still feel the limb allowing one to hurt them through it" death finished explaining
"ok I think I understand that" Harry reluctantly said
"good, next is what are known as zoan type devil fruits which also have sub species, this devil fruit allows the eater to transform into an animal or an animal hybrid state such as an ox or bull, there also exists a human fruit which is useless to humans themselves" death explained before waiting for Harry to take in what he had been told
A few moments later Harry nodded, death continued "the zoan fruits don't just allow standard animal forms there are subspecies known as mythical and prehistoric, prehistoric is self-explanatory, so I'll pass that one and move straight to the mythical zoan" death said before taking a breath
"the mythical zoan are generally creatures of legend such as the phoenix or a vampire, the powers of these creatures as imbued within the devil fruit, the phoenix fruit in a well train user for example can mimic the abilities of a logia devil fruit, which I will explain next" death said preventing Harry from interrupting him
Death took another breath as he moved to the last devil fruit "finally there is the logia, by eating one of these you embody a trait of nature or even an abstract concept such as light, a being who embodies a trait of nature can control said nature for example a being of lightning can become lightning negating any damage and can also generate and control lightning" death said to a now shocked Harry
"a being who can create and control an element but not transform their body into said element fall under paramecia, it is the same if the situation was reversed if they can turn into the element but not control it they are a paramecia not a true logia" death stated before taking another breath "I shall give you an example of three logia devil fruits, the first is ice, when the embodiment of ice is damaged they shatter just like ice would but those fragment link back together and the body regenerates itself" death stated as he continued regardless of Harry's shock
"then there are elements such as smoke, when the embodiment is about to take damage the embodiment can chose to turn into the element itself becoming intangible and preventing damage being done to their body although there are ways to bypass a logia intangibility"
"finally," death said in anger "is a devil fruit who allows control over a concept, instead of providing protection it negates damage from other elements, this fruit also has the capacity to allow the eater to steal another's fruit under certain circumstances" death explained his voice laced with pure anger
A few minutes later Harry had finally processed all that death had told him "ok, but why do you need my help" Harry asked
"I need an avatar within the world who can deal with those that not only have managed to find a way to avoid my domain, but I also require someone to deal with a threat that could destroy the world" death said his voice back to the near emotionless voice Harry was used to hearing
"because of this I have called in a favour from Amaterasu who granted me a single flame in which I have imbued my own essence within, upon your arrival in the world I wish to send you the flame will manifest into a fruit but the polar opposite of a devil fruit" death stated "instead it shall be a divine fruit, it shall have the same weaknesses as a normal devil fruit but your abilities and powers upon consuming the fruit will grant you control over hellfire" death continued to Harry's shock
"there will also be the fact of your magic, I shall allow you to keep it but know that you magic will not be effective against those who have consumed a devil fruit as they will no doubt find ways to counter it, finally is parentage" death stated causing Harry to blink
"in the world I intend to send you there is a man, he will rule the seas but not for long as he is intended for my domain, this man is known a Gol D Roger the man who I would intend to use as your father when he find out he is dying" death told Harry
"will I at least still look like me" Harry asked causing death to chuckle in amusement
"I wish to send you off to another world within another universe and what you want to know, is if you'll look the same" death asked in amusement getting a nod from Harry
"you told me I'll be keeping my magic which probably means I will have to learn how to use it once more" Harry stated "plus I suppose it will be nice to be a nobody for a few years" Harry stated "alright so memories, I assume I won't be keeping them" Harry asked
"no, your memories will be wiped all that you will be allowed to keep is knowledge of magic and a memory of this meeting, this also means you will not be taking the cloak, wand or stone to this new world and the wand will be fused with your body upon the correct age" death stated
"will I at least have peace" Harry asked his voice suddenly tired
"for a time my master you will, you shall know a childhood that you never experienced" death answered before continuing "but it will not last, the man who will be your father is infamous and when you reveal yourself the entire world will be after you" death finished as he watched as Harry's eyes began to slowly close
"I'll hold you … to … that" Harry said tiredly before his eyes finally closed
"good luck master" death said as he watched Harry's soul get smaller and smaller until It was nothing more than a marble which he willed it to the fragment of himself that would see to his rebirth
AN: harry did not marry ginny instead he married ... hermione, i'll let you decided what his life before his rebirth was like, but i have a feeing some people will want to know how he died, after spinning my wheel of death (yes i made a wheel of death) harry died after killing Ron who tried to kill him due to his jelousy of hermione picking harry, ginny will be the one who kills harry who pushes hermione out of the way of the curse
the wheel simply said betrayal so i worked with it, hopefully you will be back for the next chapter
