Chapter 1: Coral

Ace was particularly stunned. Once again, he was being observed by an outsider to whitebeards ship, but it was on whitebeards command. He looked back at the young woman. She had long, stunning crimson red hair, that reached to her lower back, although it was shiny, it was quite rough and wasn't very neatly brushed. Her eyes would be large, if she had them fully open, however she had them at a casually tired level and smiled happily watching her surroundings, Ace knew if he got in a fight, she would only notice once he'd lost. She didn't wear the most feminine clothes either. Baggy trousers and an open shirt revealing her bandaged back breasts. He had to admit, he definitely thought that she used them as a distraction in a fight. However many times she told him it was because they got in the way. Also, she was called coral, apparently, and Ace wasn't really sure if that name fitted her particularly well.

"Ace!" Came a fairly familiar voice from above. He looked up, but checked back. She was gone and he didn't know where. He saw his brother, dangling over the edge of a building and waving his arms frantically. Luffy fell off of the building and landed on some ones stall, the stall owner, hit him hard around the head, didn't bother Luffy too much.

"Heya bro!" Ace said. walking up to his brother and greeting him. "Where's you crew?" He asked.

"Getting supplies. We've got an awesome new ship now, and my crew's bigger." He said, gleaming with joy.

"So I've heard, a pretty large bounty too. Eh? 300 million berries was it?" He watched his brother laugh.

"Yup!" Luffy replied cheerfully "So...Are you still stronger than me?" He asked, very happily, it was obvious Luffy thought he might finally have gotten stronger than his brother.

The pair walked into a deserted alley on a fairly deserted street. And began to fight, Ace had the upper hand from the very beginning.

Not too far away. Coral walked casually down the street, getting many glances in her chest region from passing men. She stretched her arms and crossed them behind her head before walking on a yawning. She bumped into someone. "Oops, sorry" She said. She glanced up. She was staring at a young man, with blonde hair, and who t her surprise, had hearts in his eyes. His curly eyebrow made her fall over laughing. She stopped laughing very abruptly ad picked up the produce he'd dropped. "Doubt this is safe to eat anymore." She said. Casually handing him a bag full of once clean produce.

"You're a lovely lady aren't you." He said.

"Not really." She smiled. "Who said I was a lady?" She asked, playing an attempt at messing with his mind. "I Could just be a drag queen, Don't you think I am a little bit, abnormal, so to say. For a women in this climate at the least." They where on a spring island. The place was mild in temperature, but probably didn't warrant her wearing the garments that she was.

"I'm pretty sure you're a lady. You're beautiful" He said. Almost floating.

She raised her eyebrow and smiled. "I can't be sarcastic or mildly serious for that long. Who're you then?" With these words, the man had begun to be fairly overdramatic and was kneeling on the foor with his head down. Mumbling something which she couldn't make out. "What's up?" She asked squatting next to him.

He pouted and looked at her. "I'm sanji and I have a 77 million bounty on my head. but they didn't get a picture of me so its just a shitty drawing." He said. She laughed.

"I've seen that. It's strange." This only furthered his overdramatic depression. She laughed again. "I mean that in the way the artist drew you was shit." She said. Trying to stop Sanji making a scene. He looked up suddenly and stared at her before backing away.

"C-Coral? Coral the sea mistress. The freelance pirate?" He asked. He was stammering on every word.

"That's me. What's up with it?" She asked she'd tilted her head slightly and was still smiling.

"Coral the sea mistress. Was rumoured, where I come from, to be the strongest female pirate ever." He said. " A girl covered in scratches and scars from a bad youth. Who looked remotely like a patchwork doll. With bright red hair and the rumoured daughter of..."

"Oh who?" She asked grinning. She was stunned her reputation had gotten so far, she'd guessed he wasn't from the grand line.

"Shanks the red hair." The man said. Sanji was pale in the face and didn't look at her in the eye. "You're rumoured to be the devil of the sea."

"A pirate's scared of me?" She said raising an eyebrow.

"You've got a 1000, million berrie bounty. Who the hell wouldn't be terrified?!" He said. he'd backed away into a wall by now.

"Anyone sane." She smiled. "Don't believe the stuff the marines feed everyone. They just spread crap." this didn't really make him feel much better. "You're under the captain monkey. D. Luffy? Right?" She asked.

"Yes." He said. He had to debate on if he should or shouldn't say it at first.

"I'm travelling with his older brother. Portgas D. Ace." She said. "Nice man Ace. Likes Orange. Possibly a little queer, what do you think?" She asked. Sanji calmed down suddenly. her last comment made her sound so human it was funny, then it hit him. She was human, that was for definite. he laughed.

"I doubt that some how."

back where Ace and Luffy where, the fight had finished. It only took ace a few punches ad kicks and a fire punch and Luffy, although he still wanted to fight. was pretty damn battered.

"Nice one bro. You're Still stronger." Luffy wheezed slightly. Although it had only taken a few shots, it had taken a while to get them to hit Luffy properly.

"Heh, You're not too shabby Luffy. Hope you haven't been causing too much trouble for your crew" Ace said, lending his brother a hand to get him up. "So Can I see this new ship of yours?"

"Sure!" Luffy beamed, dragging Ace across the street, the two talked the entire time.

"So, the new members, who are they?"

"Well ones called Nico robin. she's really calm. he others Franky. He designed our boat and made it, pretty much" Luffy dragged ace into a cove and showed him the boat. "Ta da!" Luffy exclaimed. "Hope Sanji's back, I'm hungry!" Luffy declared jumping onto the boat, closely followed by Ace.

Aces' mouth dropped when he saw Coral fighting Sanji, Zoro, Nami, Chopper and Even Franky at the same time."

"You're Luffy right?" She asked. Still warding them of while casually talking. "Oh hey Ace, don't worry, its only practice fighting." She said.

"What?" Ace said. "You really shouldn't be doing that" he said, sounding as if he was scolding her.

"Doing what?" She mused. "I'm only kidding around" She looked down to see them all gasping for air on the floor. Nico Robin appeared out of cabin and blinked.

"CORAL?!" She yelled. Coral gave a massive, Luffy like grin before speaking.

"Hey again."
