It had been about a month since Naruto had set off and it was pretty good but he had no idea how to navigate or cook. Currently terrible as he was caught in a whirlpool. His boat was dragged under into the current and was broken up. Naruto was currently grabbing a few things under water and sealing them into his arm when he was grabbed by the collar of his haori and dragged him above water and to land.
Naruto coughed out water left in his lungs and looked up to a silver haired man with a scar over his right eye with glasses. He had a scar on the right side of his chest as well. "Who are you, old man?" Naruto asked. The man laughed loudly, "Old man, huh? It's been a while since someone called me that. The name is Silvers Rayleigh. And who might you be?" He asked. "My name is Naruto Namikaze." Naruto replied. "And what are you doing on the coast of Sabaody Archipelago?" Silvers asked. "I was looking for an adventure after I was banished from home village. So now I'm going along trying to find someone to turn the world upside down with." He said as he grinned. Silvers thought back to his old friends Gol. Rodgers and smiled. "Well it seems you don't know much about the outside world. How about I help you out?" He said as he reached his hand towards Naruto. Naruto smiled and took his hand.
That was two years ago. Since two years ago Naruto had trained with Rayleigh and he had taken it like a sponge. He had taught him about Haki and Naruto had learned that he had all three types of Haki: Observation, Armament, and Conquer's Haki. He noticed that Observation Haki was like his Sharingan and the Conquer's Haki was like his killing intent. He was also trained in swordsmanship, tactics, and fighting styles. He had learned about the devil fruits and their abilities. He had met Shakky and she taught him how to be invisible while in plain sight and how to pick pockets silently. If they knew it then so did Naruto. One day, Naruto had found a devil fruit while returning from shopping with Shakky. They discovered it was the Storm-Storm fruit but given Naruto's abilities he really didn't need to eat it so he sealed it into his arm for later use.
Naruto had decided to become a bounty hunter to test his abilities out and after a year goodbye from Shakky and Silver, they had told him to head to East Blue as it was the weakest of the four seas. Naruto nodded and bid them a goodbye.
It was about two months ago and he was now in a town that looked abandoned until he heard crying coming from what looked like the main road. He went to the sound and saw an orange haired girl wearing a straw hat bawling her eyes out. He walked up to her but she didn't take notice and he saw he arm was bloodied, "Hey what's wrong and what happened to your arm?" Naruto asked.
Nami looked up and saw a blonde haired guy with piercing blue eyes and golden blonde hair with jaw-length bangs. He had cute little whisker marks and he was dressed kind of strangely. He had eyes of concern she sniffled, "It was Arlong." She snarled his name out and she told him the story of her village and why it's like this.
To say Naruto was angry was an understatement, he had to hold back his killing intent from affecting Nami. "Where is Arlong?" Naruto asked with his bangs shodowing his eyes. Nami looked at him wide eyed, "Why would you want to know that?!" Nami asked. "Because I'm going to beat his face in for making such a beautiful girl cry." Naruto said seriously and Nami blushed, "B-but you can't I doubt even Luffy could do it." Nami exclaimed. Naruto looked at her and smiled, "You need to believe in your friends, Nami. Will you believe in me?" Naruto asked. "Y-you want to be friends with me?" She asked. Naruto smiled and nodded and Nami teared up, "Yes I will believe in you!" She screamed and Naruto smirked. "Yosh, let's go." He said as he grabbed Nami getting an eep from the orange haired girl and he Body Flickered away.
They arrived in a courtyard with them standing on a reflecting pool and a white tower behind them. Many were bewildered on how they just appeared out of nowhere. "How did you do that, Naruto?" Nami asked in awe. "I am a man of many talents, Nami-chan." Naruto said.
He looked around and saw some people who looked like Kisame. He looked further and saw a kid with black hair and red vest, a blonde with a all black suit, and a man with green hair and three swords he Body Flickered over to them. When he appeared they looked surprised, "Cooooll how did you do that?" Luffy asked with stars in his eyes. Naruto just scratched the back of his head, "Well it's just a skill I have." He said. "So like a devil fruit?" The green haired man asked and Naruto shook his head no, "Nah it's just me but I do have a Devil Fruit with me." He said as he unsealed the Storm Fruit. "Why didn't you eat it?" The blonde asked. Naruto was going to answer but was interuppted by the fishmen.
"Oi you in my territory and I want that devil fruit hand it over, you stinking human." The biggest fishman said. Naruto just looked at him and sealed the fruit away, "You must be Arlong." He said as he pointed at him, "Yeah you gotta be the description Nami gave fits perfectly: big, ugly, and stupid. Well I guess that could be said about all you fishmen." He said as he took a thinking pose. Everyone had to hold in their laughter."Why you, little brat! And you think this is funny huh humans. Well laugh about this." One fishman said with big lips as he took a breath and spit out three globs of water speeding towards the villagers who stood there in shock. Naruto was in front of them in an instant with the Kusinagi out and sliced all the water globs. Everyone was amazed at the swordplay and Zoro was now interested in this person. "They had nothing to do with this, fish face." Naruto growled out.
"I don't care they are beneath us. They are scum we are doing the world a favor by killing them." Chew said. Naruto snarled and he vanished again but this time they heard a crash and looked and were shocked to see Naruto smashing Chew's head into the concrete. "You are trash. You think you are better than humans. Yet you are eating the dirt that a human fed you." He said to the fallen fishman.
"He took down Chew one of the elites." Someone said. Naruto looked to Luffy's crew, "You all stay out of this. These bastards are mine." Naruto said and everyone gaped. "What is he insane?!" A blue haired girl exclaimed. "No way we were here first so I get to fight Aarlong!" Luffy shouted. Naruto looked at him, "If you let me fight alone I will join your crew." Naruto offered. Luffy instantly backed down and nodded. Naruto smirked, "Good now sit back and watch the fall of a tyrant." Naruto said as he looked back to the rest of the fishermen.
"Are you sure about this Luffy? We don't know how strong this guy is." Zoro asked. Luffy grinned and nodded, "Yeah. Didn't you see what he did to that fish guy over there?" Luffy said. "But that's only one fish person not an entire crew of them." Sanji added. "Just believe in him." Nami said with a smile.
Naruto stared down the fishmen in front of him, "Do you really believe that you can defeat us, you lowly human?" One of them said. Naruto just sighed and flipped through some handseals, "Water Release: Water Dragon Jutsu." He said and a giant dragon with yellow eyes came from the water and curled around him. It sped off and attacked the fishermen and they were dragged into the water. They floated back to the surface but they were dead from the blunt force trauma.
Naruto walked onto the water and kicked the bodies, "Hmm that was one of my weaker attacks. So much for being the stronger species." He said to himself. Everyone was in shock, this man just walked up and decimated the fishmen that had been terrorizing them for years with one move and he said it was one of his weaker ones on top of that he was standing on top of water.
Arlong was seething, "A stinking human took down most of my crew." He stepped towards Naruto and was rocketed back into a wall. Naruto occupied the space he was previously, "Stay down. Your turn will come but I have to deal with your two lackeys." He said pointing to Hatchan and Kuroobi. "Lackeys!? We are not like those weaklings we are the elites." Kuroobi said arrogantly. "Is that so?" Naruto said as he looked bored.
He reached into his ninja pouch and pulled out a small strange looking dagger and a book. He opened the book and held the the dagger on his right hand. "Then come at me." Naruto said with half lidded eyes as he continued to read.
"Is this guy crazy?!" Ussop yelled. "He's reading a book while fighting." Sanji said stupified. Everyone had the same thoughts more or less. They looked back to the fight and saw that Naruto was handling himself quite nicely even while he was reading. He kicked both fishmen back. "Is that all?" Naruto asked in a bored tone.
The fishmen seethed and Hatchan whistled and a giant cow whale came from the reflecting pool. It looked at Naruto menacingly but took one look at Luffy's smiling visage and started to run away but after a little reverse psychology the sea cow attacked Naruto.
Ignoring the screams for him to get out of the way. Naruto just looked at the beast and it stopped in it's tracks surprising everyone. "You obey me now, understood?" Naruto said and the beast nodded much to their surprise again. "Good. Now attack those two." He said pointing to the two fishmen. The beast did as instructed and attacked. The fishermen got over their shock and fought the beast.
The fight last about five minutes before the defeated the seacow. Naruto was upon Kuroobi as soon as it was over. He kicked him away and pulled out his kunai and pointed it at Hatchan, "Let's go swordsman." Naruto challenged. Hatchan laughed, "You think you can defeat me with that puny thing." He said. Naruto smirked, "Let's see." He said as he dashed toward the octopus man and he pulled out six swords to defend himself. "Do you see now you are outmatched with a fisherman!" He said arrogantly but that stopped when he saw that his blades were shattered and the kunai rammed through his shoulder. "You talk too much." Naruto said and he rammed him into a wall and hung him there. Zoro, Johnny, and Yosaku were in awe. They remembered when Zoro was defeated by Hawkeye with a small dagger as well.
Naruto turned to the bigger of the fishmen and settled into a stance, "I am the strongest of the fishermen, I'll show you why my Fisherman Karate is above you humans." Kuroobi said. "100 Tile Brick Break." He yelled as he thrust his fiat at Naruto and the attack hit and many gasped.
"He wasn't that strong at all." Kuroobi said with a smirk but that was cut short when he was launched into the air by a kick from Naruto. Naruto vanished from his spot and appeared behind Kuroobi and black bandages wrapped around his body. Naruto grasped the wrapped fishman and started to descend while spiraling at an inhuman rate. Just as they were going to hit the ground Naruto let go and jumped away. The fishman landed and created a huge crater. "Pathetic."
Naruto said and he turned to Arlong who looked like he gained his second wind. "This is your last chance. Leave this island and never return or face judgement." Naruto said. Arlong laughed, "You think I would leave this island because some human told me? I wouldn't leave this island because it is a constant income plus I got Nami to make those precious maps among other things." He said the last part darkly.
"What do you mean among other things?" Naruto asked with narrowed eyes. Arlong smirked and laughed, "We raped her, of course! Anytime we wanted to and we took her virginity!" Arlong laughed and everyone looked shocked and looked to Nami who had tears streaming down her face.
Then they felt the feeling of dread surround them and looked to Naruto. "You have killed her mother in front of her, took her away from her sister, made her a slave to make maps, and also raped her when every you saw fit?!" Naruto said and he looked up and Arlong took a step back in fear, "Your life is now forfeit." Naruto said.
Naruto was behind him in a blink of an eye and fist strikes him while he also placed his seal on him. He flashes above him and punched him into the water. After about a minute, Arlong came speeding out of the water, "Shark On Darts!" He yelled as he sped towards Naruto who just stood there and when he got close enough Naruto just caught his nose and snapped it and kicked him into the tower.
"He is really beating Aarlong with no trouble." A villager said. "Who is this guy and where did you find him, Nami?" The blue haired woman asked. Nami looked at her and smiled, "He is Naruto and he is my friend, Nojiko." She said as she blushed and Nojiko caught it. "Just a friend,huh? Too bad now I can I have a go at him." She said with a playful smirk. Nami looked horrified, "NO!" She yelled and blushed right after and got a smirk from Nojiko.
Arlong appeared out of the tower with a huge jagged blade, "You will now die, human." He yelled and he charged at Naruto as he unsealed Kubikiribōchō and blocked his sword strike. He then over powered him and broke his guard and kicked him to the top if the tower and followed him. He landed in the room and looked around, "What is this place?" Naruto asked. Arlong got out of the rubble, "This is where I had Nami make the maps. You can't have her! You can never use her like I can." He said and Naruto eyes narrowed as he started to smash everything with his Executioner's Blade. "What are you doing?!" Arlong cried in outrage. "As long as this place exsists Nami could never be free." Naruto said as he threw the entire desk out of the window.
Down below everyone was wondering what was going on. They saw something fly out the window and thought it was Naruto. They saw it was a desk and Nami covered her mouth while tearing up and mentally thanking Naruto.
Arlong lunged at Naruto to stop him but Naruto kicked him away. "You still think you are going to live past today?" Naruto asked. "You will not." He finished as he swung his blade and cleaved Arlong in half at the waist. He put his hand out and gathered his chakra into his signature technique, "Big-Ball Rasengan." He yelled as he thrust it into Arlong and went through the tower bringing it down with him.
Everyone waited while holding a breath when the rubble started to move and a figure rose from it. They saw it was Naruto and rushed to him. Naruto turned around when he heard cheering and saw everyone rushing at him. He smiled and scratched the back of his head, "I guess I may have over did it, huh?" He asked and he was hit in the chest by a orange blur. He looked down and saw Nami bolding on to him for dear life. "Thank you. Thank you. Thank you." She repeated while tears streamed down her face. Naruto smiled softly and hugged her back, " Anything for my friends, Nami-chan." Naruto said.
He saw some people looking through the rubble. He sighed, "You might not want to see what he looks like." He said. And the people stopped being nosy. "Just a minute!" They stopped and turned to a voice and saw the captain who shot Nojiko in the shoulder. "We will now be taking all of Arlong's treasure." He said arrogantly.
Naruto looked at him and tilted his head, "Nami-chan, is he the guy that tried to shoot you when your back was turned?" He asked and every women wanted to glomp him because he looked so cute. "Yeah that's the one." She spat. Naruto took a thinking pose, "Hmm what should I do?" Naruto asked he pulled out three tri-pronged kunai and tossed them at the Marines who dogde them, "Ha you can't even throw those things. You missed." A marine yelled.
Naruto smirked, "Did I?" He asked. Nami looked at him confused, "What do you-" she was cut off when he disappeared in a yellow flash. They looked around for him but only saw yellow flashes behind the Marines and they dropped like flies. The flash stopped behind Nezumi and it was Naruto with his kunai at the neck of the captain, "You are going to leave this island and never return. You are a disgrace to the good Marines everywhere." Naruto said.
Nezumi was sweating out a storm, "Y-you think you'll get away with this?" Naruto's answer was him digging his blade into his neck drawing some blood. "I do. Never return to this island. If you do, you'll end up like Arlong." And he let the threat hang. He flashed away and reappeared right next to Nami holding a big bag and a long wooden box. "Now get out of here before I change my mind." He said and Nezumi and his men ran away to their ship. Naruto turned to the people and chuckled, "Hehe sorry about that but I got your money back." Naruto said sheepishly and the people cheered.
