"Where am I?" Tearic asked.
"You're in my domain now, saiyan." Zote replied. "Anyway, do you except my invitation to my army?"
"I'll never join you!"
"So be it. Looks like you don't care about your world." He turned to the keyboard getting ready to warp a black hole bomb a few feet away from him down to the planet. "It's really too bad. This is the last bomb we have. It's a shame that we need to use it on such a puny rock ball."
"NO!" screamed Tearic as he transformed into the Enerjor. "I won't let you!" He charged at Zote and tried to throw a punch at him.
Zote saw that attack coming from a mile away. He caught Tearic's fist and threw him to the ground. He picked him up by the neck. "Any last words, ape?"
Tearic spotted the bomb that Zote was supposed to send down to the planet and detonate. He grinned. "You bet I do." He pointed his hand at the bomb, getting ready to shoot a ki blast at it. His head turned toward the monitor. "Harp, Raichi, Dad, everyone, I'm sorry it had to come to this, but there's no other way. Tell everyone I'll miss them. So long, my friends and family." He shot the blast at the bomb detonating it. The black hole it created swallowed the mecha comet and everyone inside it, including Tearic.
Location: The Going Merry, East Blue

"I finished!" yelled Luffy. He showed everyone the poorly drawn flag he had made for their new ship. "Look! Our pirate mark! Now that Usopps joined we got four people. That's almost a whole crew! I think it's about time we got our own flag!"
Zoro looked at him with a strange expression on his face. "Uh... Luffy, is that really gonna be our mark?"
"Heh, what do ya think? Nice, huh?"
"Our mark should be scary. It should strike fear into our enemy's hearts." Suddenly, everything turned dark. Everyone looked toward the sky with curiosity and saw some kind of giant vortex directly above them. "...See, now that's the kind of thing that will scare the crap out our enemies."
"What the heck is that thing?" asked Usopp.
"Those aren't like any storm clouds I've ever seen," said Nami.
Suddenly, something began to fall from the strange vortex. Then, the spiral disappeared. Whatever it was, it was going to land on the Going Merry. It crashed down onto ship. The Straw Hat Pirates rushed over to the object to see what it was. They were all shocked when they realized what it actually was. It was a spiky-haired man with a monkey-like tail. He groaned and said "Holy crap. Who would've thought that a trip to the afterlife would be painful?" He looked upwards, but he didn't see a halo. "Wait a minute this isn't the afterlife! Where am I?"
"You are on my pirate ship, the Going Merry," replied Luffy.
"Huh?" he looked over at the the group of people who apparently have been staring at him. Tearic jumped back, and got into a fighting stance. "What are you? Saiyans or tuffles?"
"Uh... We're pirates."
"Did it sound like I asked for your occupation? I asked you what your species is. Now tell me!"
"...Nami? What's a species?"
Nami sighed. "We're not either of those things," she said. "We're humans."
"Humans?" asked Tearic. "What planet is this?"
"Isn't it obvious? It's Earth."
"Earth? Never heard of it."
"Are you trying to imply that you're from another planet?" asked Zoro.
"That's correct."
"That. Is. AWESOME!" yelled Luffy.
"What planet are you from!? What kind of space alien are you!?"
"Luffy! Calm down!" said Zoro.
"Oh I'm sorry," said Nami. "I don't think we've been properly introduced yet. My name's Nami."
"My name is Zoro."
"I-I-I a-m Us-Usopp," Usopp stuttered nervously.
"And I'm Monkey D. Luffy! The man who's gonna be king of the pirates! And who are you, monkey-tailed spaceman?"
"My name is Tearic Lychee, but you can just call me Tearic. I'm the only saiyan in history that was raised by tuffles."
"You keep mentioning those two things," said Nami. "What exactly are saiyans and tuffles?"
"They're two of the species that inhabit Planet Plant. The saiyans are violent and usually uncivilized creatures who love to fight. The tuffles are a very advanced race who prefer brains over brawns. Being a saiyan raised by tuffles, I'm sort of a mix between the two."
"Wait a minute," said Luffy. "You're both a genius and a fighter?"
"Yeah. What about it?"
Everything was silent. That was until Luffy put his arms in the air and yelled "Welcome to the team!" Everyone did an anime fall besides Luffy.
"ARE YOU INSANE!?" screamed Usopp. "We don't know anything about this guy! For all we know he could be a psychopath!"
"Hey, I'm not a psychopath!" Tearic yelled. "I worked real hard back on Planet Plant to convince the tuffles I'm not like the other saiyans! I don't want to go through that again!" He turned back to Luffy. "Now, what exactly would I do if I joined your team? I don't sense any negative energy in your heart, so I can already tell you're not like the space pirates I've learned about before."
"Well, we usually go on adventure, look for crew members, fight-"
"And search for treasure!" Nami added.
"Right. So what do ya say?"
"Ok," Tearic replied with a smirk. He always did have a knack for adventure and fighting. He would need something to keep him occupied if he was gonna be here for awhile, and this sounded like something he would enjoy. "I'll do it."
"W...what?"
"I said I'll join your crew."
