Grimm Hunter
So this is a Zoro falls into the Rwby world fic and the mighty pirate hunter becomes the Grimm hunter. I was bored and decided to write this one night.
Zoro will be rather OP in this fic, since it is Zoro from the most recent chapter of the manga (838), he is completely up to date and I would prefer to keep it faithful to what I think a one piece character would be like in the Rwbyverse.
Don't expect great things from this fic as it was done from boredom and the fact I'm not a good writer.
Disclaimer: I don't own Rwby or One piece or any characters. They belong to Monty Oum (R.I.P) and Eichiro Oda respectively.
Let's begin.
Zoro sat up with a groan and brought a hand up to his head in attempts to sooth the raging headache. He has no idea why his head was so sore. He cracked open an eye but instantly closed it due to the blinding light. After a few minutes he tried again and was successful in doing so, he looked around at his surroundings.
"A forest?" He tried to recall where he was and where the rest of the crew were. He looked around at the odd red leaves, all the trees had deep red leaves, even the grass was red. He didn't even remember them docking at an island. Racking his brain for an answer he came up short as to where he could be. Standing up he dusted off his coat.
"Last thing I remember is that we were sailing to a new island. Maybe I hit my head and just can't remember" He shook his head, intent on not continuing his train of thought and instead look for a nearby town to find out where he is.
Walking with a hand resting on his swords he passed a tree that he could have sworn was following him. "What's with this shitty forest? It keeps rearranging itself" Right then his Kenbunshoku haki picked up on a nearby threat, it was closing in quickly. Spinning round he came face to face with what appeared to be a large wolf, pure black with weird white plating all over. He examined it and watched if it was going to attack. It was weird, usually he could sense any immediate danger from people and animals, but all he could tell from this thing is that it was a possible enemy.
Narrowing his eye he watched as it leaped through the air at him. It's slow. He thought. Stepping to the side, he drew Shusui and slashed upwards across it's side as it passed him, cutting it in half. He looked to his sword and saw no blood, confused he looked at the body and seen it starting to evaporate into rose petals.
"Weird" He said then sheathed Shusui and once again walked off. After everything he and the others have seen, a wolf that disintegrates into petals isn't that much of a surprise.
Team Rwby walked to Ozpin's office. He had called them and team Jnpr into his office for a mission. Ruby guessed it must have been pretty bad if he called two teams.
As the girls entered the office, they noticed that jnpr were already there and waiting for them to arrive. Ruby sheepishly rubbed her head. "Sorry, we're late"
Weiss looked to Ruby. "And who's fault is it we are late?" Ruby blushed and twiddled with her fingers and Blake and Yang both chuckled.
"Please ladies, have a seat" Ozpin said, gesturing to a couple chairs. Both of which were quickly claimed by Ruby and Yang who high fived.
"Seem's you'll have to stand" Ozpin said to Weiss and Blake. They just shrugged, not bothered by standing.
"I've called you here today to send you out on a mission. We have gotten reports that there has been a large influx of grimm in the forver fall forest. We would like to send you to exterminate them" Yang, Ruby and Nora started getting excited at the prospect of fighting some grimm.
"You will be leaving in an hour. That is all" With that he turned to look out the window that was positioned behind his desk.
The two teams filled into the elevator, small talk rising between the friends. "This is gonna be some much fun, it's been so long since we got to go out and kill some grimm. I thought we would never catch a break from studying" Ruby half exclaimed from excitement and half complained about the amount of work they had gotten, Weiss rolled her eyes at her young leader but a fond smile quickly replaced it, she was starting to worry about Ruby stressing from the school work.
The two teams quickly found themselves in front of their dorms, quickly entering their respective dorms, the two teams started to get ready for the mission.
"Hey Blake, have you seen my scroll?" Yang questioned. Blake peered over to her partner.
"Why would I have seen it?" Yang shrugged.
"You're the more responsible one out of us two, it's your job to look after me" Yang joked, earning a pillow to the face from the faunus.
"I'm not your mother" She responded but quickly regretted her choice of words, she knew how sensitive Yang was when it came to her mother. Thankfully Yang blew right past it by throwing the pillow back at Blake then tackling her down to the ground while she was distracted. Yang began mercilessly tickling her.
Weiss sighed at the two's antics but chuckled when she heard the usually reserved Blake cackle with laughter. Feeling something poke her head she looked up to see Ruby smiling down at her, she smiled back. Ruby dropped something on her head. Lifting it off she found it to be a folded piece of paper. Looking up at Ruby she just stared back, waiting for her to unfold it.
Unfolding it, she read what was written on it. Yang confessed she has feelings for Blake to me last night. Weiss's eyebrows shot up. She certainly wasn't expecting that. She looked back over at the pair, Blake had somehow shoved Yang off her and was now gasping for air while Yang grinned at her. She looked at Ruby and leaned up to whisper to her.
"Is it okay to tell me?" Ruby nodded then whispered.
"Yang was gonna tell you but had a hard enough time telling me so I told her that I would let you know. Don't worry, she wasn't gonna leave you out, that would have been mean" Weiss sighed in relief, she thought Yang still didn't fully trust her, clearly she was wrong.
After getting ready the girls left the dorm and headed to where the bullhead would pick them up to take them to forever fall. After a twenty minute wait, the bullhead arrived and the two teams enjoyed a short ride to the forest. Leaping out of the ship they all landed and pulled out their weapons. The two teams agreed to split up but meet back where they landed in a few hours.
Team Rwby walked through the forest, still not finding any grimm. They had been walking for about ten minutes and hadn't seen any signs of grimm in the area. "You know, I expected a little more grimm" Yang said, rather disappointed she hadn't gotten to punch anything yet. As they kept walking there was an explosion a little ahead of them. They instantly went on the defensive. Running ahead they came into a clearing and spotted...a man?
Said man was surrounded by grimm and he had a hand rested on what looked like three swords. He was fairly tall and had green hair that was slicked back and a green coat that was open around the chest. He didn't even seem fazed by the creatures around him. The girls watched as beowolves leaped towards him and he easily moved out the way of them.
Zoro drew shusui and Sandai Kitetsu and crossed them over his chest.
"Onigiri" He shouted and rushed forward and cut right through several beowolves. He turned towards some more, sheated Kitetsu and brought shusui up and across his chest.
"One sword style: 360 caliber phoenix" He shouted as he threw his arm into a slash and a flying slash raced forward and shredded several more beowolves to pieces. The girls watched on in awe at the mans ability to so easily take out the grimm. Not that dispatching them in one attack was something they couldn't do but this guy just looked so bored and almost like he wasn't even trying to fight seriously. The remaining grimm done the smart thing and ran, the man sheathed his sword.
"Tch. Couldn't even kill my boredom. Well back to loo-" He stopped talking when he turned and spotted four girls standing staring at him. He raised a hand in greeting.
"Yo" In an instant the girl wearing mostly red was in front of him, asking a ton of questions.
"Who are you? Are you a hunter? If so can I have your autograph Can I see your swords? Where did you come from? What are you doing here? Can I see your swords? How did you slash through the air like that? Why did you shout out attack names like that? Can I see your sw-" Ruby was cut off by Yang grabbing and lifting her off the ground by her cape.
"Easy there little sister, you asked to see his swords twice, almost thrice" She scolded her sister.
Weiss and Blake walked up beside the sisters, still on their guard in case this stranger was a threat. Zoro noted their weapons and rested a hand on the hilts of his own in case they attacked.
"Sorry about her, she easily excited, especially by new weapons" Zoro shrugged.
"Doesn't bother me" He said cooly.
"If you don't mind my asking, who are you?" Weiss questioned. Zoro raised a brow.
"You not seen the bounty posters?" The girls instantly went into battle ready stances.
"Bounty poster? So you're a criminal?" Zoro drew shusui but didn't attack.
"Well, what else would you call a pirate?" He said with an evil glint in his one visible eye. The girls just shot him a quizzical look.
"Pirate?" Weiss asked incredulously. Not understanding the joke. Zoro's brow raised once again.
"Yea, you know, sail around on ships, search for the one piece and drink sake. That sort of thing." The girls looked around at each other.
"What's one piece?" Ruby asked. Zoro was starting to get annoyed.
"What? You can't be serious. The one piece. The treasure left behind by Gol D Roger, literally everyone has heard of it"
"Sorry, never heard of it" Yang said. Zoro sighed.
"Fine. Where am I?" He asked.
"You're in forever fall forest, just outside Vale"
"Vale? Never heard of it. Where in the grand line is it?" The girls were once again confused.
"What the heck is a grand line?" Ruby asked, incredibly confused. Zoro officially lost all patience.
"YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS?!" The girls once again readied themselves for combat, Zoro breathed deeply to calm himself.
"Alright, am I in one of the four blues?" The girls confused faces answered his question. He had to admit, he was starting to get a little worried, there was no way that anyone didn't know about the one piece, grand line and the four blues. He could tell these girls were being entirely honest. Having to spend time around Usopp meant he was pretty good at discerning a lie and truth.
Before he could say anything, a growl behind him caught his attention. He turned and came face to face with more of the wolves but this time there were also two bear like creatures. Before dashed into action, the fours girls quickly passed him and attacked the creatures. He watched as the girls swiftly and easily dispatched them.
The red girl using a large scythe with some sort of gun built into it, she was dashing around at insane speeds, hacking and slashing with the scythe and using momentum from the gun to move around. She was rather reckless and preferred to take action but he could tell she had smarts about her as well.
The white haired girl used a rapier and some sort of strange glyph things to move around and employ different affects, she was moving with a perfected grace and was incredibly fluid and accurate with ever strike. She was a short term strategist. Her every move was planned on the spot and executed with deadly precision. If a new element presented itself, she would adapt her strategy to fit it. He found himself especially intrigued by her.
The black hair girl was making quick work of her opponents, slashing with one or two swords and shooting with a gun then either moving so fast she leaves an after image or she was somehow creating a clone to help get away from attacks. She was clearly a very experienced fighter and she was moving around with ease while eliminating her opponents. She was a fast paced, keep the enemy guessing and on their toes kind of fighter.
The blonde was interesting. She was the powerhouse of them, she ran around blasting enemies with powerful punches, knocking back the large bears and following up with bone shattering combo's. She was reckless and impatient, she preferred taking action and leave the thinking to other people. She was a dangerous person in one on one combat and had the physical strength to back up her fighting style.
Zoro finished his inspection of them at the same time that they killed all the creatures. All in all he could take them all on, but the white haired girl would be the trickiest. She was the same as him, short term strategist. But those weird glyphs allowing her to strike from odd positions and her speed would make her interesting to fight. He grinned at the idea.
"Seems like you guys are pretty good fighters" He complimented them, Yang turned to him.
"Damn right, you better not underestimate us"
"I'm never one to underestimate someone based on gender" The image of a certain annoying female marine swordsman ran through his head and he shivered. Annoying woman.
"So, mind telling me what those things are?" He pointed to the currently evaporating creatures.
"Okay, so you blab on about stuff called the one piece, grand line and four blues and now you don't know what the grimm are? This is getting suspicious." The white hair girl says, narrowing her eyes at him.
Zoro smirked but shrugged his shoulders. Zoro looks behind him after hearing a faint banging sound and sees a green flare in the sky.
"Look's like Jnpr have cleared out the grimm over there" Blake said and looked around then continued. "There weren't many grimm over here, guess we have this guy to thank" Blake gestured to Zoro.
"What should we do with this guy anyway? We can't just leave him here" Ruby mentioned.
"Just point me in the direction of the nearest town and I'll walk there" Ruby stared for a second.
"You sure? The nearest two is a days walk from here. Two days depending on the amount of grimm you come across" She explained but he reassured her he'll be fine.
After pointing him in the direction of the nearest town, which was vale he started walking...then turned the complete wrong way.
"What are you doing? I said head south to get to vale" He turned another direction "No, now you're heading east" He glared her way then started walking again. "Don't come back to us, this is the opposite way from the way you need to go" Zoro lost his patience.
"Would you make up your damn mind?" Ruby huffed.
"Don't blame me that you clearly suck with directions"Zoro fumed.
"Why you little..." He breathed in and calmed himself down.
Weiss sighed "Just come with us, we'll give you a ride to Vale" Zoro looked to her then nodded.
When the reached the meeting point, Jnpr were already waiting there.
They greeted team Rwby then stared at the green haired man following them.
"Uhh, you guys mind introducing us to your new friend?" Jaune awkwardly asked.
"Name's Zoro" He growled at the blonde, not in the mood.
Jaune shrunk in on himself, wanting to get away from the scary man in front of him.
Zoro looked between the four girls "Now that I think about it, I never got your names" The four turned to him.
"Oh that's right" Ruby exclaimed.
"I'm Ruby Rose, leader of team Rwby"
"I'm Weiss"
"Blake"
"And I am the mighty Yang" Yang said, flexing her arms in a showoffy way.
Ruby spoke up next. "And these are our friends; Jaune Arc"
"Uh hi" He said awkwardly, not wanting to impede the wrath of the man.
"Pyrrah Nikos" She pointed to a tall red head clad in armour.
"Hello" The red head waved cheerfully.
"Nora Valkyrie" She now pointed to a short orange haired girl that held a large hammer.
"Sup" Nora said in an attempt to seem cool.
"And Lie Ren" She pointed to a tall man with black hair and a pink streak.
"Nice to meet you" Zoro nodded his head at him, appreciating the more tame and formal greeting.
"Now that introductions are out the way. I'll signal the bullhead" Weiss said, pulling out a flare gun and shooting a yellow flare to indicate the need of a transport.
After a few minutes a bullhead landed and allowed the nine people to board and it took off towards Vale.
That's chapter 1. Like I said, not great but I started this more out of boredom. I might think about putting more effort into it if it gets a decent reception. If no then it'll remain a silly idea for fun.
Hope you guys enjoyed it anyway, please review and let me know.
