Story start:
Chapter 1:prolouge
Raftel: present time
It was a massacre, the strawhats were gone, she wished with all her being she could change this, there was a bright flash and the thousand sunny, the ship of the strawhat pirates, was gone
14 years earlier (sunny P.O.V)
There was a flash and everyone was gone, she was still docked at raftel safe and undamaged, but she had lost her crew; her nakama. So she steeled her resolve and reeled in her anchors raised her sails and with her navigating skills learned from experience (she was the ship nami navigated so she had to have picked up a lot from her through firsthand experience) and set out to the place of the beginning, the very beginning
Sometime after setting sail from raftel
"I should tend the gardens of Usopp, Nami and robin" she thought as she materialized her klaboutermann with a watering can and some scissors and set to work tending Usopp's pop green gardens
5 months later at a great cave in the red line: bubble cove (1)
Bubble cove was huge, great mangroves not unlike those at shabody stood at the enterance and its roots had carved out a great cove that like shabody had bubbles floating everywere, bubble cove, like shabody, was big enough to have its own marine outpost as well as its own lawless areas, it was also known as the place of escape for those wanting to go back to paradise, for this was the new world equivalent of shabody achipello with its own (significantly more expensive) coating mechanics who made a fortune helping weak crews get back to 'paradise'
"I want to get a coating" she said to the coating mechanic she found "I wanna go to my nakama"
Looking somewhat disturbed at the ghost ship talking to her, she answered: "sure, but can you pay? We are a lot less cheap then those at shabody; having a lot less resin to work with here" in her mind she added "(and punishing these once overconfident fools for even thinking they could handle the new world)"
The ship threw something "here this is some of the treasure we gathered, you can have it if you coat me" there was a big bag that came up to her waist and despite the reservations of coating a ship without any crew on it she set to work right away
Paradise: next to the red line at the border of the calm belt separating east blue from the grand line, 2 days later
' I hope I have enough fuel stored for this' she thought as she fired up her engine (2) and set sail through the calm belt
About 1 km from the east blue, still in the calm belt
She was out of fuel and had to put another set of barrels of cola in her engines, this was the 3rd time she had to do this and she hated it, she was a sitting duck while changing her fuel and while she was lucky the last 2 times she didn't know if it would keep up the 3rd time
The east blue: just outside the calm belt, 10 minutes later
She was lucky, she only had 1 full set of barrels left after this and no sea king attacks, she unfurled her sails and set out without having to use her engine. her klabautermann going back to watering the pop green gardens, having already cared for the tangerine bushes and Robin's flowers, she was happy everyone kept spare parts for their figting styles nami had a few reserve scorcery climatact's hidden in the girls room and notes on how to make weather bubbles, weather eggs and other weather manipulating itiems, ussop had his pop green garden, including one that grew top parts for the kuro kabuto, and Franky had taken enough wapometal to rebuild himself 3 times over including his BF-37 and BF-38 blueprints, she also still had sanjis special cooking knive set and choppers notes on his new medicines
Fooshia village: 3 months before shanks leaves permanently, the day luffy stabs himself under the eye, 2 days before the sunny arrives
"Hey, what's anchor doing up there?" one of the pirates said, pointing towards the bow of shanks ship, the red bull (3), where a young boy with black hair and a small knife stood
"Shank I'll prove I'm a true pirate like you" the boy said before stabbing the knife just below his left eye "AAAHHH"
"luffy you idiot! What are you doing!?" shanks shouted
Party's bar: 3 minutes later
"That didn't hurt at all" luffy said after having his wound stitched and bandaged up by makino
"Liar" was the unanimous response from everyone in the bar
"Can I join your crew shanks?"
"No" was the reply
2 days later, the day Luffy eats the gomu gomu no mi
"Can I join your crew?"
"Yes, but only if you can drink booze"
"Okay" he took a swig "bleagh"
"See you aint a pirate" one of shanks crewmembers said
"Hey Makino give anchor some juice, just put it on my tab"
"Oh juice, thanks Shanks!" he took a swig and gulped it down greedily, meanwhile the pirates burst out laughing
"Hey! Don't Laugh"
This went on for a while until some mountain bandits came to spoil the fun, what happens we all know, but for those who somehow don't, here it is: Luffy eats the gomo gomu no mi thinking its dessert while no one is looking and Shanks gets a bottle of booze and spit thrown on his face.
No what's really interesting is a second pirate ship docking at the dock of fooshia, a pirate ship of a crew that doesn't exist… yet.
To be continued…
Right now
Docks of fooshia village: just after luffy ate the gomo gomo no mi
'Finally I made it' sunny thought as she docked at fooshia with the help of the dock workers
The plank was laid out for the crew to come out, but no one came, a scream of "GHOST SHIP!" was heard not long after
Partys bar at the exact same time
"Ghost ship!"
It was heard; mainly due to the silence that was present after seeing luffy's arm stretch, but it was heard and as a result both the silence broke and the bar emptied out wanting to take a look the ghost ship
Docks, location of the ghost ship AKA the Sunny: 1 minute later
"Doesn't look very spooky" Ben Beckmann said
"Doesn't look very pirate'y either, well, maybe a little bit" came the reply from Lucky Roo
"pirate?" that question came from Luffy but it was thought by a lot more
In response roo pointed both to the crossbones on the bow and the pirate flag flying proudly on the top of both masts and the jolly roger painted on the front sail
'How did we miss that' was the thought that most had upon seeing the blindingly obious signs
"Doesn't the hat of that jolly roger look familiar to you capt'n?" a random pirate asked Shanks
"sencho?"
At the voice everyone began to look around
"Luffy sencho! There you are"
Everyone's eyes bulged out, it was the SHIP that was talking, and it was calling LUFFY of all people its captain
To be continued… for real this time,
this story is also in my one shot series and this text is a direct copy but tnext chapter is entirely original i will try to at least make it to enies lobby prefferably shabody or even further and i try to keep knowledge as faithfull to cannon as possible exept for some changes, of cousere as the manga progresses and more facts are revealed that i may or may not have to ignore for the sake of preventing plot holes this story WILL become more and more AU then it is already
This is a story idea by me, if you want to adopt it please PM me
That's it
Cya:) William;)
1 needed a location where you could coat ships in the new world
2 post time skip sunny has engines that pop out at the bottom of the ship
3 pun totally intended, this is before shanks got the Red Force
