Disclaimer: Usopp: Shadowyman doesn't own One Piece, the greaaaaaaaaaat Captain Usopp does!!!

Me: "grabs Usopp's nose and throws him away" What he means is that Eiichiro Oda owns One Piece, not him.


"My god is it boring here!" Franky yelled to no one in particular. He and Brook were sitting on the grass lawn on the Sunny. Zoro was up in the Crows Nest working out again.

"I agree Franky-san." Brook said as he was sipping his cup of tea. "Any longer and I might die of boredom, but I'm already dead! Yohohohohohoho!" Franky just grumbles in reply, not humored by the skeleton man's joke.

"I'm going to go for a walk around town." Franky jumped down to the docks and started walking towards the town. Brook grabbed his cane and was quick to follow Franky's actions, but when he caught up to him he said, "Franky-san, we shouldn't leave the ship unattended like that."

Franky shrugged. "Don't worry about it, Zoro can watch the ship. Besides, I'm only going to be gone for a few minutes." And with that, he started walking towards town. Brook took a look back at the ship, contemplating whether or not to stay.

"Gomen Luffy-san, but I could go for a stroll around town." Using his light legs, he quickly caught up with Franky.


Meanwhile, on the other side of town…

*Pant *Pant

A lone man was hiding in a narrow alley, out on the street were Marines. All out finding something.

"Keep searching! He couldn't have escaped so quickly."

The man's eyes turned to the other street the alley connected to. No Marines in sight. Taking his chance, he ran off in hopes of reaching somewhere safe.

"There he is!"

"Oh fuck my life!" The man said as he ran down the street, Marines right behind him.

"Fire, shoot him to death!" One of the Marines cried.

Hearing rifles being pointed, he ran even faster, in hopes of dodging the incoming fire.

"Fire!"

I'm done for!

"ROCKET!!!"

Before the Marines even acknowledged the voice, they found themselves crashing into a nearby house. The man just stood there and gawked at the sight before him. From the wreckage, a young boy wearing a red vest, blue shorts and a strawhat emerged.

"Oh man. That scared me for a moment." The boy said as he dusted off his straw hat.

"Who…who are you?"

The boy put his strawhat back on and announced, "I'm Luffy. Nice to meet ya!" The man shook his head in acknowledgement. "Nice to meet you Luffy." Luffy gave the man a grin. The man before him wasn't a man at all, in fact he seemed to be his age, around 17. He had short, black hair that was spiky. He was well fit and was wearing a pair of black jeans and a blue shirt that said BOSSMAN in red on it.

"Awww, seems like there's nothing fun here after all." Luffy said, sounding a bit disappointed.

"Well seeing you fly from the sky was pretty fun for me." The kid said. Unbeknownst to the two, there were Marines coming from where the kid was running from.

"By the way, who are you?" Luffy asked.

"Me? Well I…"

"Stop right there you scum!"

Luffy and his new friend turned to see large group of Marines on the street, weapons at ready.

"Oh yeah. Did I mention that I was being chased by Marines?" The kid asked.

Luffy shook his head. "So, what about it." A sweat drop appeared on the kid's head.

He is so oblivious to what is going on.

"Give yourself up Devil Kid. You have no where to run!" The Marines shouted.

"Oh! You're name is Devil Kid? What a weird name." Luffy said while chuckling.

"That's not my name!" The so-called Devil Kid yelled at Luffy. "That's my nickname!"

"Oi, isn't that other guy that Mugiwara kid. The one with a 300 million bounty?" A Marine asked. The whole group gasped, shocked that a kid with such a high bounty would just appear out of nowhere.

"300 million bounty? You must be pretty strong." The Devil Kid said. "I have to be strong, the King of the Pirates must be a strong guy right?" "The King of the Pirates?" The Devil Kid asked incredulously. "Yeah, I'm going to find One Piece!" Luffy said with determination.

While Luffy and the Devil Kid talked, the Marines were watching with sweat drops. "Did they forget that we were here?" One Marine asked. "It doesn't matter, just capture them!"

"Huh?" The two criminals said as their attention was once again on the seemingly incompetent Marine force.

"Fire!"

"Luffy, watch out!" But Luffy just stood there as the Marines' bullets flew right into his body. The kid thought Luffy would die there and now, but the bullets were trapped in Luffy's body and made a long line behind him.

"That won't work on me!" Luffy yelled as the bullets sprang out from his body, back to the Marines. The Marines jumped and ran in random directions, hoping to dodge the bullets.

"You have a Devil Fruit ability?" Luffy responded by grabbing his cheeks and stretching them out in a comical way. "Yeah, I ate the Gomu Gomu no mi. I'm a rubber man." Stars replaced the kid's eyes as he heard Luffy. "That's freaking awesome."

Meanwhile the Marines calmed down and got ready to attack again. "Guns won't work on him, attack with your swords." The Marines yelled as they ran towards Luffy, swords in hand.

"Gomu Gomu no Muchi!" Luffy yelled, his leg stretching and kicking the Marines away. Again, the Devil Kid's eyes were sparkling in amazement.

"That little brat. Keep attacking!" Another wave of Marines charged forward, only to be on the receiving end of a Gomu Gomu no Gattling Gun. "Sergeant, he's too tough to attack. We can't do anything to him." A battered Marine said. The sergeant growled under his breath. Noticing that the Devil Kid was too busy staring at Luffy, he ordered his men to attack him instead.

"Fire at the Devil Kid, he is our main objective."

"What?" He tried to get out of the way, but it was too late. As he heard the gunshots, he felt searing pain in his upper body. Luffy turned to see his new friend face down on the street, bleeding profusely and not moving.

"Oi Devil Kid! Are you okay?" Luffy ran to his side and turned him over.

"Why did you shoot him? What did he ever do you to guys?" Luffy asked with an angry look in his eye.

The Marine sergeant scoffed at Luffy's question. "You have no need to know what that kid has done. But you will be a nice bonus for us when we turn you in."

"Just try!" said Luffy.

"Men!" The sergeant raised his hand as his group of soldiers got ready. "Attack…"

"Sies Fluer!"

The sergeant screamed as hands started to grow from his body. His men too screamed. "What? What is that?"

"Clutch!"

The hands grabbed the sergeants neck and pulled his torso back so much that his spine cracked. The Marines could only watch in horror.

Luffy on the other hand was happy as can be when he saw the hands appear. "Robin! Chopper! You're here!"

Robin and Chopper smiled as they saw their Captain's huge smile. They quickly ran to his side before asking. "What's going on over here?"

Chopper looked at Luffy's feet to find the Devil Kid, covered in blood and barely breathing. "Luffy! Why is someone dying here!?" Luffy pointed at the Marines and explained, "They shot him for no reason. You bastards."

When the Marines saw the fierce look in Luffy's eyes, they weren't hesitant to get the hell out of there. Robin and Luffy dropped their fighting stance at the sight of their backs.

"This isn't good, he's hurt pretty badly." Chopper said as he checked the kid's body. Robin put her hand on his chest. "He's barely breathing too." She was about to add that he barely has a heart beat but her heart started to beat irregularly, causing her to remove her hand and start coughing. Luffy and Chopper didn't notice as their attention was still on the Devil Kid.

"Chopper, can you help him?" Luffy asked. Chopper nodded. "Yeah, but we have to get him to the ship. Quickly as well, or else he might die."

"Right, lets hurry then." Luffy grabbed the kid and put him on his back, as if he was giving him a piggy-back ride.

"Let's go." Chopper transformed to sprint point and started for the ship, Robin and Luffy followed in suit.


"Jeez, where are those guys?" Nami asked. Usopp, Sanji, and Nami have already made it back to the ship without trouble. But when they returned, Zoro was the only one on the ship. When Nami asked them where Franky and Brook went, he simply replied, "How the hell should I know?"

"I hope they weren't confronted by the Marines." Usopp said. He shuddered as he remembered that there was a vice-admiral on the island. "If they get captured, then we'll have to leave the island."

"How dare you say that Usopp!" Sanji said as he kicked Usopp in the gut. Usopp flew across the deck and crashed into the small garden. "Sanji you bastard! Why did you kick me?" Sanji replied with another kick to the gut. "How dare you try to leave Robin-swan behind!"

Nami looked away from the fight, her eyes on the small poor town.

Even though Sanji is just being a womanizer, he is still right. We can't just leave those guys out there with the Marines. Especially not Luffy…

A blush found its way to Nami's cheeks as she though about Luffy. About how he never left her behind in all their adventures. She shook the idea away from her head and tried to think about something other than her idiot captain.

Luffy, please be safe.


Oooooh, Nami is so worried about Luffy. It's so cute ain't it? And just who is this mysterious Devil Kid? Do you guys know, cause I sure as hell don't (or do I).

Please review and give suggestions. It's what brings joy to my life.
