Wow, I never thought that I'd get such a positive feedback for this story. Honestly, it was just something that popped into my head after watching an episode of Soul Eater. Death the Kid put me in stitches after hearing his symmetry rants.

I owe an apology to Virajpatel for using a bit of his story for my first chapter without permission. It was a mistake on my part and I can't even begin to say how embarrassed I am for it. I will not use any more of your story, not even a reference to add to this story without asking. And I appreciate you accepting my apology and your kind words.

I will put up a list of the women in Luffy's harem at the end of the chapter and I will put the ones that are suggested into consideration.

Crofty666: The fruits used were explained in the following chapter. Know that some, if not all of them, were pulled out of my ass.

VeryBigBrain: I'm sorry but I'm just too used to Zolo.

I hope you enjoy and know that I own nothing.

(Many miles away from Marine Base Island)

Luffy and Zolo drifted calmly with the tide towards their next adventure.

"Hey Luffy. Where did you get that Devil Fruit and what are all of its powers?" Zolo asked.

Luffy adjusted his hat so that it was placed on his head instead of his eyes.

"I'll answer your question with another question. Have you ever heard of the Reaper of the Revolution?" He asked.

Zolo adopted a puzzled look but answered. "Mostly rumors. Supposedly, he's a demon in human skin. Only the strongest of the strong in the East Blue have heard of him. He vanished a year ago and hasn't been heard of since. I know he wields a scythe that can shear two Marine flagships in half with one slash and he wears a trademark straw hat." He finished.

Luffy just smiled and waited for Zolo to get hit by the realization.

Zolo sat there, waiting for Luffy to get to the point so he could get his original question answered. He then though of what he just said.

His scream of "WAIT, WHAAAAAAAAAATTTTT!?" could be heard for miles.

Luffy laughed until he saw something in the sky.

"Look, it's a bird. Alright! MEAT!" He shouted. His feet were shrouded by his Grim Mist and he was rocketed into the air.

Zolo just watched as Luffy shot up into the air.

"I can't believe this. I'm the first mate of the Reaper of the Revolution. Does that mean I'm part of the Revolutionary Army?" Zolo wondered before a scream disrupted his thoughts.

"ZOLO, IT'S BIGGER THAN I THOUGHT!" Luffy screamed. His head was in the giant bird's beak and he was trying to wrench it out.

"LUFFY, YOU IDIOT! GIVE ME BACK MY CAPTAIN, YOU DAMN BIRD!" Zolo roared as he rowed the oars withal his might towards the direction of the bird's heading.

(Meanwhile, Orange Town)

The orange-haired young woman ran for her life through the deserted town as three clown-like pirates chased her with their swords drawn. In her hand, was a rolled up parchment, which was apparently the reason for their pursuit.

"Dammit! How could I have slipped up like I did?" She mentally swore.

"Fuck this! Shoot her legs!" One shouted. The other two pulled out their pistols and took aim.

"Oh no!" She thought and braced herself for the pain, only for an object to crash on the ground between them.

"Ouch." A voice said from within the dust cloud. A silhouette of a young man with a hat stood from the crater. "I wonder where that bird dropped me. Well, hopefully Zolo can follow me." He said.

The smoke cleared and the girl's eyes widened when she saw the boy from the day before. Straw hat, suit, and everything.

He turned his curious gaze to her and his eyes lit up in recognition when he saw her. "Hey, you're that lady from Alvida's ship." He said excitedly.

"Uh h-hi." She said nervously. Here was the charming guy who saver her from a cannon ball and now he literally just fell from the sky to save her again.

"So you're her boss? Cap'n Buggy'll reward us big-time to bring him in." The lead thug boasted.

"These guys are Buggy pirates and I kinda stole a map from them. Could you help me, please?" She pleaded with the female-and-children-usable-only puppy-dog eyes.

Luffy's response was to grin so wide that the girl feared his face would split in half. "No problem, this'll take just a sec." He said before turning to the three pirates.

Luffy held out his hand and his Shadow Scythe formed, much to the surprise and horror of the Buggy Pirates.

"Grim Gale!" Luffy yelled as he slashed his scythe horizontally. A black-tinted wind burst from where he slashed and the wind grew until it blew the pirates off their feet and sent them flying towards the coast.

"Well, that was a letdown." He muttered as he twirled the scythe and slammed the butt down.

"That was awesome!" The girl shouted. "I've never seen a scythe used as a weapon in these times." She said excitedly.

"My mom made it for me. I'm Luffy. What's your name?" He asked.

She was startled for a moment but then she smiled. "My name's Nami. And I'm a pirate thief." She announced proudly.

"That's interesting. But I think I'd care more if I had some food." He said while rubbing his roaring stomach.

Nami sweat dropped at the sound of the roar. "Come on, I can get us into one of these houses and we can raid it for some food." She said and pointed towards town.

Luffy shrieked like a monkey and wrapped his arm around Nami's waist before sprinting towards the town with Nami screaming for him to stop or put her down.

(The Docks)

The three pirate thugs were bowed in submission before their captain. He was a man with clown make-up and a clown-variant pirate garb. The most noticeable feature about him was his large red nose.

"So three of my crew was beaten by a single punk in a suit? And the worst part is that you let the woman get away." He growled.

"But cap'n Buggy, the guy made a scythe appear out of thin air and it blew us away before we knew what was happening." One complained.

Buggy stopped his angry pacing and glared at them with shaky eyes.

"D-Did you say a scythe?" He demanded.

"Y-Y-Yes sir. He yelled out "Grim Gale" and swung the scythe and it made a gust of wind that blew us away."

Buggy immediately turned away and walked towards his quarters. "The Reaper is here!? I thought he vanished a year ago. If he's involved, then the Revolution might be too. This island might be under their protection but I don't think there's anything here worth a fuss about to them." Captain Buggy thought in a mild panic as he entered his quarters.

(Meanwhile)

"So you don't live here?" Luffy asked. He ate the last bit of food on his plate and gazed at the pretty orangette.

"No. I like the name though. This place is under siege from those pirates and the people fled to the other side of the island." She explained with a noticeable bite in her voice when she said pirates.

Luffy noticed her subtle hatred and narrowed his eyes a bit but said nothing.

"By the way, would you be interested in helping me out. I'll make sure to split the treasure with you." She said pleadingly.

Luffy just stood up. "Nope." He said before heading for the exit.

"Awww. Why not?" She whined.

Luffy stopped and turned to her and crossed his arms over his chest. "Because you'd rob me after I fought and killed Buggy. You said you're a pirate thief, after all." He said.

Nami looked confused for a moment before her gaze hardened. "You're a pirate." She accused him.

Luffy took notice of the subtle movement of her arm. Figuring she had a weapon, he grinned in his childish manner. "Yep! I'm the pirate who's gonna build the best crew in the world and find One Piece." He declared with a heroic pose.

She looked at him perplexed for a moment until she just shook her head and relaxed. "Well, if you're a pirate, then forget my offer."

"Say, what were those guys trying to get from you?" Luffy asked curiously.

Nami smiled again and pulled a rolled-up parchment from behind her. "This is a map of the Grand Line. Probably the only one in the East Blue."

Luffy's eyes widened comically. "So you're a navigator!?" He asked excitedly.

Nami smiled proudly. "Probably the best that you'll ever find."

"Then you should join my crew. I've got no experience with navigation and neither does my first mate." He shouted.

"No way." She yelled.

"Aww. But why?" He whined.

"WHAT PART OF "PIRATE THIEF" ARE YOU NOT GETTING HERE!?" She shouted with shark-like teeth.

"So? My first mate hunted pirates and now he's a pirate." Luffy said.

Nami looked at him in mute astonishment.

"I can tell you've been wronged by a pirate before. But not all pirates are like them. I want to sail across the world, meet new people, go on adventures, and experience true freedom. That's what the pirate, Shanks, taught me."

"Shanks? The Pirate Emperor, "Red-hair" Shanks? You know him?" Nami asked.

"Yeah, he used my home island as his headquarters for a few years. He taught me how a real pirate is supposed to act. Real pirates have dreams and are supposed to do everything in their power to make those dreams come. I want to find One Piece and become King of the Pirates. What's your dream?" He asked.

Nami just sat there, her mind a tsunami of thoughts.

Luffy brought her out of it. "On second thought, don't tell me yet. I know you're robbing pirates for a reason. You don't go after bloodthirsty monster's berry for kicks. Whatever you're getting this money for must be very important to you." He said softly.

Nami looked away to get escape his soul-searing gaze.

"Tell you what, we'll work together to get rid of this Buggy guy and you can keep the treasure. I don't need it and you can't take on Buggy by yourself. What do you say?" He offered.

After a minute, Nami glanced back at him and nodded her head.

Luffy grinned again. "Great! What's the plan?" He asked.

"Why are you asking me?" She said exasperatedly.

"Cause I can't make plans. I'm the muscle and the blade, not the brain. You're obviously smart, so you make the plan." He decided.

Nami blushed at his unintentional compliment and smirked at him with a sinister glint in her eyes.

"Here's the plan…"

(One hour later)

Luffy found himself tied up and locked in a cage that barely allowed him to move.

"Someone's getting their ass kicked for this." He mentally growled.

"I can't believe that I was actually worried about you?" Buggy shouted. "The Reaper of the Revolution is just a snot-nosed little brat."

Luffy enviously watched as the Buggy pirates ate and drank in celebration for their new "crewmate", Nami.

Said girl snuck over to Luffy's cage. "How you holding up?" She asked.

"I'm hog-tied in a tiny-ass cage, I'm starving, and they're eating delicious-looking food right in front of me, I'm just peachy." He said with sarcasm.

"Saying your goodbyes to your old boss Nami?" Buggy guffawed. Somehow, he had snuck up on both of them.

"I was just letting him know what an idiot he is, Captain." Nami's heart was beating a mile a minute.

"Well then, its time I told you your fate! And let me tell ya', it's going to be a BLAST!" the entire crew cheered at Buggy's pun.

"So you're going to let me go!" Luffy said stupidly.

"Yes! I'm going to let you go!" Everyone blinked a few times before Buggy realized what he had said, "NO I'M NOT GOING TO LET YOU GO! Boys, prepare the special Buggy cannonballs. I think a little demolition is in order!"

The crew hustled to get a cannon on deck that aimed for the town. A random crewman came on deck and loaded the cannon with a red cannonball with the Buggy Pirates Jolly Roger stamped on it.

"What's that, Captain Buggy?" Nami asked with genuine curiosity.

Buggy grinned sadistically and fired the cannon.

The explosion from the cannon blast deafened Nami for a moment but she was distracted by the resulting destruction. Several blocks of buildings were utterly demolished and the cannonball finally stopped after it destroyed a mountain in the distance.

Nami's blood froze in her veins. This wasn't in her plans. Use Luffy as bait, get them drunk, free Luffy, and take the treasure. Clean and simple. The cannonball that could level cities wasn't in the plans.

"Your turn, Nami. Prove your loyalty and kill your old boss." Buggy demanded and held a lighter out for her.

Nami looked at Luffy like she was pleading for help. The straw-hat wearing Reaper just winked at her and nodded discreetly.

Nami swallowed the lump in her throat and took the lighter.

With much hesitation, she lit the fuse and watched as it slowly burned out until it reached the cannon.

She felt her heart stop when it burned out suddenly.

"What?" Buggy shouted.

Nami lit the fuse again, only for a black blur to pass by it and sever the fuse again.

"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!?" Buggy screamed.

"I don't know." Luffy answered with his giant grin on his face.

Nami blanched at him. "Can he be any more obvious?" She wondered. Then she realized everyone's attention was on him and snuck away while she could.

"What's with that smile? What did you do!?" The clown pirate demanded.

"What can I do? I'm tied up in a cage, big nose." Luffy said cheekily.

Everyone froze and the pirate crew all paled almost instantly.

Buggy's hat shadowed his eyes until his lifted his head, revealing his rage-filled eyes. "WHAT…DID…YOU…SAY!?" He snarled out.

"Shishishishishi." Luffy snickered. "Shanks told me all about how you hated when you nose was made fun of."

"SHANKS!? How do you know that red-haired bastard!?" Buggy shouted. He then noticed Luffy's hat. "Wait a minute. You're his protégé. He would only trust his protégé with that hat, like Captain Roger trusted him with it."

Luffy smirked and his body began to billow out his Grim Mist.

Nami snuck on deck just in time to see the rope fall off Luffy's body and he stood up. The crew screamed like girls when Luffy's body phased through the cage like he was a ghost.

"That's right. Shanks taught me what it means to be a pirate just like Gold Roger taught the both of you. What happened to make you into the cutthroat monster you are now, Buggy?" Luffy asked.

Buggy growled and whipped his arms out, sliding several throwing knives in-between his fingers. "I woke up, brat. That kind of shit got the captain killed so I decided to make my own path." He then noticed Nami with a large bag of gold, sneaking off the ship. "Stop her!" He shouted.

Nami started and screamed when the sword blades descended on her.

There was a sound of metal striking metal instead of flesh.

She slowly opened her eyes and saw a young man with three swords blocking all the pirate's attacks.

"Hey Zolo, what took ya'? Luffy shouted with a friendly wave.

"Shut up! You're the one who jumped up to chase after a giant bird!" He yelled back. He threw the pirates off and stood in front of Nami.

"She with us?" He asked his captain.

"Kinda. I'm still working on her." Luffy answered.

Zolo glanced at Buggy and his gaze hardened. "Get outta the way, Captain, unless you wanna get diced." Zolo warned his friend.

Luffy grinned. "Go for it, buddy."

Zolo jumped on deck and glared at Buggy with his swords glinting in the sunlight. The crew didn't do anything, except smile, which made Luffy wary.

"Captain! That green haired guy is the Pirate Hunter Zolo!" one of Buggy's Pirates had recognized Zolo.

"So you're Roronoa Zolo huh?" Buggy asked calmly.

"Yeah. I am," Zolo looked at Buggy.

"I see! Then you must be aiming for my head then?" Buggy chuckled, mocking Zolo.

"No. I quit Pirate Hunting. I have a different aim now and can't waste my time hunting down weaklings." Zolo announced.

"Well, this trash wants to waste time on you. If I kill you, I'll become more famous," Buggy swung his knives dangerously.

Buggy's crew began to chuckle to themselves, "Yeah! Cut down Roronoa, Captain!"

"Your funeral." Zolo said without interest.

The two Pirates moved in a flash.

Buggy's corpse fell apart into three separate pieces.

"What a weakling? Was I really afraid of this guy?" Nami wondered, still feeling queasy from looking at the cut up bodies.

Zolo sheathed his swords and walked over to Luffy. "Did you get the bird?" He mocked.

"Don't patronize me, and something's off," Luffy made note of the other Pirates still chuckling to themselves.

"So they lost it? Maybe we can use this ship for ourselves. Any of you freaks got a problem with that?" Zolo threatened only to receive more chuckling. "You're right. There's something wrong"

"Zolo! Behind you!" Luffy screamed.

Zolo turned around to feel an immense pain in his stomach. Looking at his gut, he found a hand with a knife sticking to him. Blood seeped out and stained his shirt.

The Pirates erupted into laughter.

"Hehehehehe! The worst enemy of the swordsman, the Chop-Chop man." Buggy announced. His body pieces were hovering in mid-air. The hand flew over to the body and the whole thing re-attached itself.

"I ate the Chop-Chop fruit. No swordsman could ever beat me!" Buggy boasted.

"YOU WANNA BET, YOU FAT-NOSED FREAK!?" Luffy roared and summoned his scythe.

The crew quieted again and Buggy was surrounded by a dark aura. "WHO HAS A ROUND NOSE!? DIE A FLASHY DEATH!" He roared and charged at Luffy.

Luffy surprised them all by grabbing and flipping the cannon over so it was facing them.

"AAAAAAAAHHHHHH! THE BUGGY BALL IS STILL INSIDE!" Buggy and his crew screamed and threw themselves overboard.

After a moment, nothing happened. Buggy jumped off the body he used as a floatation device to the upper deck and saw Luffy with Zolo on his back and a Buggy ball under his arm. Nami was right beside him with a bag of his treasure over her shoulder. Both were running through the town.

"DAMMIT! THEY HAVE A BUGGY BALL, MY MAP, AND MY TREASURE! ALL OF YOU, GET THEM BACK OR YOU'LL ALL DIE A FLASHY DEATH!" Buggy shrieked.

(With Luffy and Nami)

"Okay. I stopped the bleeding but you need to take it easy." Nami advised Zolo.

"I'll sleep on it." He said and headed for the house behind them.

Nami looked around and saw Luffy sitting next to a white dog, who was receiving a nice scratching behind his ears by the raven-haired dunce.

She then noticed the cannonball under his arm. "Luffy, why did you grab a Buggy Ball!?" She asked.

"I'm gonna send it to my mom. She's gonna love studying this thing and she'll send me back her own version of it with cookies." He began drooling when he said cookies.

Nami couldn't help but smile at him after hearing that.

"Hey, who are you people!?" An elderly voice shouted. They turned to the entrance of the house and saw an old man with a spear and brown, fuzzy body armor.

"We're pirates." Luffy said, only for Nami to punch him on the top of his head.

"I'M NOT WITH THEM!" She screamed with her "demon head".

"OW! How the hell did she hit me?" Luffy wondered as he rubbed his head.

"Regardless, what are you doing with Chouchou!?" He demanded and pointed at the dog.

"Petting him." Luffy said simply. He continued to scratch the dog's ears, earning him a wagging tail.

The old man looked at Luffy with astonishment. "Unbelievable. Chouchou wouldn't take so kindly to an average person, let alone a pirate." He said.

"You think he can sense that Luffy's an idiot?" Nami asked.

"HEY!" Luffy shouted indignantly.

"It's more like he can sense the goodness in him." The man said. He then turned to Nami. "I'm Boodle, the mayor of this town." He introduced himself.

"Oh, I'm Nami, that's Luffy, and the guy sleeping in the house is Zolo." She said. Nami then turned to Luffy and Chouchou. "You mind explaining the dog's story?" She asked.

"Chouchou's late owner ran the pet food store behind them. He fell to disease and Chouchou guards the store, day and night, like he's waiting for his master to come back to him."

"Does he know?" She asked.

"He knows," Luffy interjected. "He's just guarding his treasure. Like I treasure my hat for the memories that I share with Shanks, he protects the store to protect the memories of his master." He said and the white pup licked his cheek before padding to the door and sitting down.

Mayor Boodle looked at Luffy with fascination until the silence was broken by a loud bestial roar.

"Luffy, please tell me that was your stomach." Nami pleaded.

"Sorry." He said and pulled out his Velvet Nightmares. He twirled the guns a couple times before a large shape crashed into the street.

The dust cleared to reveal a giant green-furred lion with a lavender mane. On its neck was a man with a matching mane around his own head.

"Where's the Reaper!?" He demanded.

"Who's askin'?" Luffy snapped back.

"I'm Mohji the beast tamer and this is Richie." The man announced.

His mood was brought down by the sound of a snicker. He looked down and saw Luffy and Nami trying to hold in their laughter.

"WHAT THE HELL IS SO FUNNY!?" He demanded.

"That h-hat looks hehehe r-ridiculous." Luffy managed to get out.

"IT'S NOT A HAT, IT'S MY HAIR!" He roared.

This information caused Luffy and Nami to lose it. Both were openly cackling at him and pounding the ground with tears cascading down their faces.

"GRRRRR! KILL THEM, RICHIE!" He yelled.

Luffy and Nami sobered up and Luffy pushed Nami out of the way as the giant paw descended.

He jumped and phased through the paw. Luffy ended up beside Mohji in mid-air and aimed for his head.

Nami's pupils shrank when Luffy pulled the trigger.

A loud bang echoed through the street and Mohji's head jerked backwards before he flew off the lion. Luffy holstered his guns and summoned his scythe. With a vicious slash, he hooked Richie's torso and sent him through several buildings before he could do anything to avenge his master.

Luffy landed on the ground as Mohji's body slumped beside him.

"L-Luffy, you…" Nami gasped.

"He's alive, Nami." Luffy said before dismissing his Shadow Scythe.

Nami started but looked at the body to see the man's chest slowly rising and falling.

Luffy glanced at the building behind them and saw Zolo staggering out. "I was afraid that big kitty was gonna wake you. Sorry I didn't kick its ass fast enough." He said.

"Thanks for being considerate." The swordsman grumbled out.

"I think it's time to take this fight back to the clown, don't you?" He asked and put his hands in his pockets.

Zolo checked his swords and walked over to his captain.

Luffy kneeled down and whistled. Chouchou happily padded over to him and received a final petting. "You keep guarding your treasure, pup. You've already done your master proud." He said as he stood and started walking.

Nami quickly joined them with her bo-staff out.

The mayor just watched them with a perplexed expression on his face. "What kind of a mayor am I? I can't just let these children fight my battles. This town was built from forty years of sweat, blood, and tears and I can't just let these kids fight for us." He mentally declared and fled towards where the villagers were gathered.

(With Luffy, Zolo, and Nami)

The three were casually walking towards the ship when they were blocked by a man riding on a unicycle with a sword.

"Greetings. I'm Cabaji, Captain Buggy's second mate. I wish to challenge Roronoa Zolo." He said like it was an everyday thing to challenge a swordsman.

"I got this, Luffy, you deal with the clown." Zolo said.

Luffy and Nami continued their trek. "Nami, while we're dealing with Buggy and his crew, you get below deck and finish lightening their load." He said. She nodded and moved away from him when he approached Buggy.

"So, you decided to come and die like a man, eh?" He smirked with his sinister voice.

Luffy merely stood there and raised his hand. He surprised everyone by flipping the clown the bird.

Growling, Buggy charged at Luffy with his knives out. The Reaper called out his scythe and slashed.

Buggy separated his torso from his waist to dodge. "You idiot, I already told you I can't be beaten by a swordsman. What makes you think a sickle would do you any better!?" He cackled.

Luffy's answer was to grip the shaft and flip it underhanded. He winded up like a golf player and swung.

A loud thud echoed through the air and Buggy suddenly learned how to sing soprano.

"Asshole-in-one." Luffy said with his grin in place.

He heard a chuckle and giggle from behind him. He turned around and saw Zolo, his previous wound bleeding again, and Nami, with two large bags of treasure behind her.

"That was brilliant. Did you just make that up?" Zolo asked.

"Actually yes, I did." Luffy laughed until he felt something whoosh over his head and heard a shredding sound.

Zolo and Nami's eyes widened in outrage, much to Luffy's confusion until he felt his head and found only his hair.

"If you really valued this hat so much, you should protect it better." Buggy cackled as he threw the cut hat to the ground.

The Reaper dismissed his Shadow Scythe and lowered his head so his eyes were covered by his hair.

Nami was about to say something when Zolo stopped her. "His treasure was just desecrated. This fight became personal on a whole new level." He said.

Luffy's body began seeping his Grim Mist and the ship began to shake. The boy snapped his head up to reveal his eyes.

Nami covered her mouth to muffle her gasp.

Luffy's eyes had vanished, revealing two empty voids of darkness.

"Awww. What's the matter, little brat? Did I piss you off?" Buggy goaded.

Luffy said nothing as he held out his left hand and surprised his First Mate and possible-navigator when his scythe wasn't in his hand.

A quick burst of Grim Mist revealed a sheathed Nodachi in his hand. The sheath was a beautiful obsidian color with a golden serpentine dragon wrapped around a red-eyed skull etched along the wood. The hilt was a dragon's head with an open mouth and the hilt was silver in color with a black diamond pattern. The tsuba looked like two silver chiropteran wings.

Zolo froze at the sight of the sword. "It can't be." He thought.

Luffy slowly pulled the sword out to reveal an iron-black blade with glowing blood-red symbols etched on the lower part of the sword. The edge of the blade was also black but the light from the sun gave it a blood-red gleam when it reflected the light.

To Nami, Zolo looked like he was having trouble breathing. "That's a Saijo O Wazamono." He said.

"A what?" Nami asked.

"It's one of the Twelve Supreme Grade swords, the top twelve greatest swords in the world. Dracule "Hawk-eye" Mihawk wields the greatest and most powerful sword in the world. That sword in Luffy's hand is of the same grade as that sword. For him to wield it, means that he is a swordsman of renowned caliber. But I've never heard of him except for his reputation of being the Reaper of the Revolution, so there's no telling how strong he really is." Zolo explained.

"You should be proud." Luffy said to Buggy, who hadn't heard Zolo's explanation.

"What?" Buggy squawked.

"I don't just use this blade for anyone. I hope you can entertain him for a bit." Luffy said with a twirl of his sword.

Buggy just growled. "What will that black chunk of metal accomplish!? I can't be beaten by a sword!" He declared and separated his limbs. The individual body parts began to hover in a hyper-speed ring.

"Chop-Chop Festival!" He roared and the body parts flew at Luffy, who did nothing.

He grabbed the sword handle with both hands and dashed towards the swarm of limbs while whispering. "Ittoryu: Lust Lightning Strike!" Luffy became a blur and appeared behind Buggy. He summoned the sheath and twirled his blade around before slowly sheathing it. The entire time he spent sheathing the blade, Buggy reattached his body until he was whole again.

Once the sword was fully sheathed with a loud 'click' various cuts appeared along Buggy's body, causing blood to erupt from them like a sprinkler. The man's eyes rolled up into his head and he fell on his face.

"Not even worth taking you out for this. I'm sorry, Kusanagi." Luffy said to his sword before dismissing it.

Luffy walked over to his hat and gently picked it up. He looked over the holes with a blank face but Nami could tell he was near tears at the sight of his ruined treasure.

"I-I'm sorry, Luffy." She said.

"Don't worry a-about it." He said with his voice cracking slightly.

Nami looked at the hat in his hand with sudden determination. "I can fix it." She said suddenly.

Luffy looked at her confused and slightly hopeful.

"Yeah, I can fix this easy." She said again.

Luffy jumped up and hugged her while laughing in relief.

"Uh, Luffy, I think it's time to go." Zolo commented as he pointed at the town. Luffy put Nami down and they both saw the approaching mob.

"Oh shit!" He exclaimed. They all grabbed a bag of treasure and the Buggy Ball before jumping into Buggy's life boats and casting off.

Though once Nami learned Luffy left a bag of treasure for the town, his screams were heard by the whole island.

A.N. Okay, that's all for the Nami chapter. I hope you all liked the new weapons and I hope I get some good reviews for this.
