Chapter 1:The Journey Begins!
Time Skip: 10 years Later
It's now been 10 years since the events that took place with the Red-Hair Pirates, 10 years since Luffy ate the Rumble-Rumble Fruit and in that 10 years Luffy has trained hard to master his powers, as well as all the knowledge pounded into his head by his grandfather during his training with him at Marineford, and has become a Strong young man. Hes changed a lot since then, hes grown taller, his body is covered in lithe muscles from all his training, but the biggest change is the fact that he wears Blue jeans, Marine issue combat boots, with a closed short-sleave red vest on his upper body, and over that he wears the white Marine coat with the word "Justice" in Kanji on the back, like a cape. Today finds Luffy standing at the docks of Fushia village preparing to leave, the entire Village is there to see him off, and at the front are Mayor Woop Slap and Makino. The old Mayor steps forward and says
"Are you sure about this Luffy? You know you can stay around and continue to protect the village with your powers." Luffy looks at the old man and says
"Why would I want to do that Mayor? All the crime in Fushia has stopped, the bandits and other criminals are afraid to come into the village because they know they'll suffer Justice. Besides I made a promise to Shanks that I was going to become an Admiral of the Marines, and I will! How am I gonna become Admiral of Marines if I stick around here?" Makino smiles at him and says
"Well then you be careful out there Luffy, the sea can be a dangerous place, especially for someone in a small ship like you." Luffy just Smiles his usual big goofy smile and says
"don't worry about me Makino-Neesan, I have my training as a Marine to get me through, and if worst comes to worst I always have my Devil Fruit Powers. Well I should get going, gotta go start looking for my Crew!" and so he climbs into his little ship which has a small cabin for him to sleep in or store provisions, unties it from the dock and puts up his sail with the Marine Symbol on it and says "Bye Makino-Neesan! Bye Mayor! Bye Everyone! Stay well! And I'll see you all again when I'm an Admiral of the Marines!" and with that he begins to sail away with the Mayor and Makino waving sadly at him as everyone else just cheers for their hometown hero.
As Luffy is sailing away, he's leaning back, with his hat over his eyes just enjoying the rocking of the waves, once he's about 4 miles out from Dawn Island the water ripples and gets violent. Luffy feeling it looks over the left side of the little ship to see what's going on, behind him the Lord of the Coast who tried to eat him 10 years ago rises up from the sea. As soon as Luffy feels its hot breath hit his back he turns around and stares at the Giant Sea King and says
"Oh its you. Did you come to play? Sorry but I cant play with you today." Over the last year, while protecting the town with his powers, Luffy has fought with the Lord of the Coast multiple times and always won. Now the Beast believes he has Luffy right were he wants him, as it rears back getting prepared to attack and swallow the 17 year old whole, Luffy gets into stance, cocks his fist back, just as the beast lunges forward Luffy throws his fist towards it and says "Knock Out Blow!" he unleashes a bone shattering blow at the Lord of the coast which hits the beast right between the eyes and shatters the bones in its head, when the shock wave from the punch passes, all that's left is a floating, bleeding carcass. Luffy Smiles wide and says
"Well I've found my dinner for the next few days." and so using his Lightning he cuts the sea king up into many big pieces of meat, and brings them aboard his little Ship, leaving what he cant take for the other sea animals and birds, and opens his sail and gets back on his journey. A few days later, Luffy is still out to sea, and is feeling hungry because he's eaten all the Sea King meat he took already. "Oh man, I feel like I'm gonna die if I don't get something in my stomach soon" as if to emphasize this his stomach releases a large growl.
Eventually he spots a barrel floating in the sea, he steers his boat towards the barrel and once close enough he drags it towards himself and pulls it into the boat, smiling he opens the top and looks inside to find a ton of Apples. This excites him "Finally Some food! It's not meat but It'll do and after all Gramps always said the a balanced dies makes for a balanced and strong body!" And so he begins to chow down on the apples with in, eventually once he's getting to the bottom of the barrel, he climbs inside to finish the last of them, once he does he stretches and Yawns and decides that its time for a nap, so he climbs out of the barrel, places the top back on it to use for later storage, and heads inside the cabin and falls asleep unaware of what he's going to encounter when he wakes up. Awhile later Luffy wakes to the sound of voices outside of his cabin
"I say we open it and see what's inside before the captain gets her grubby hands on it first." says the first voice,
"Yeah whose gonna tell her we been in it anyway? Certainly not Koby…right Koby?" says a second voice. Then Luffy hears a third voice that sounds young and scared
"n-no I wont tell…I promise…" A 4th voice then speaks up and says
"See, so lets open it up and find out just what's inside!" at that point Luffy decides its time to get up and see what's happening. So as 3 of the 4 people go to open the barrel he found the apples in, He walks out of the cabin, and stretches.
"Ahh Man that was a good Nap!" when he looks around the small boat he notices 3 pirates, and a young man wearing Glasses with pink hair looking at him in shock. He looks at all of them and says "Hey My name is Lieutenant Monkey D. Luffy of the Marines. What are you doing on my ship?" the young man decides to respond
"my name is…K-Koby….and we were j..just..."but he quickly realizes what a bad situation they're in and panics "These guys are Pirates who kidnapped me and were going to steal this ship and everything in it!" Luffy looks at him confused and says
"Ok I just woke up from a nap so give me a second. Those 3 are pirates and you were kidnapped by them then brought aboard my ship so that they could steal it and all the food and possible money on board? Did i get all that right?" Koby nods his head and says
"Yeah thats about everything. Oh and they belong to the Alvida Pirates! And thats Alvida's Ship!" as he points to the bigger ship which Luffy now notices his little ship is tied to. Luffy puts his hand to his chin for a moment thinking and says
"Alvida? Ah! Shes the only really well known Female Pirate in the East Blue right? If I recall her wanted poster was Ugly, and she's worth 10 Million Belies Shishishishi" Koby gawks at this and is about to speak when on of the pirates speak up and says
"Hey Watch what you say about our Captain! Why are we just standing here listening to these two kids Talk? So what if hes a Marine, hes only one stupid kid. Lets take him out!" his fellows agree with a combined "Yeah!" and they attempt to attack the Black haired boy, however he sighs and says
"I hate dealing with small fries. Weaklings should learn their place." as he vanishes before all 3 men find different parts of their bodies caved in, one gets his stomach caved in and hears the breaking of his ribs, the second gets his face caved and feels the breaking of his jaw, and the last gets his chest caved in and can hear and feel the breaking of his chest bones, and then they all go flying off the smaller boat in different directions. The 2nd and 3rd men go crashing into the sea several thousand feet away from the 2 ships, while the 3rd man and the leader of the group goes crashing THROUGH the side of Alvida's ship straight into the cargo hold. Koby gapes at this and says
"Are you Insane?" Luffy looks at him and Says
"Hey kid you got any food? I'm starved." Koby looks at him surprised and says
"You really are crazy, thinking about food when you just damaged the ship of a Horrible woman like Alvida." Suddenly the sky above them darkens and Koby hears
"Who's Ugly Koby?!" Koby shaking in fear looks up see the angry face of Alvida. Alvida is a Fat woman, with short legs, wearing what looks like a cowboy outfit with a red feather coming from her hat and a big iron mace(the reason for her name) Resting on her shoulders. Luffy being the person he is says
"Hey Kid would that be the fat lady?" Koby pales at this and Alvida's face turns red in Rage and she shouts
"FAT?! WHO'S FAT?!" Luffy blinks and says
"You are. Haven't you ever looked in a mirror before Pirate?" Alvida roars in rage and says
"BOYS! KILL THIS LITTLE PUNK!" Koby fearing for his life attempts to hide inside of the small ships cabin as a bunch of Alvida's men step forward with their pistols and rifles and aim at Luffy who doesn't look the least bit scared, and Alvida says "Any last words you disrespectful brat?" before the kid disappears, however he reappears on the deck of the pirate ship behind all the crew and its captain Luffy says
"Last words? I guess I should tell you that wont work…your just gonna waste bullets." Alvida's crew turn slightly surprised by the boys speed but still laugh at his words and Alvida says
"Looks like he's to frightened to say anything intelligent boys…Do it boys Fire!" And so the men fire at Luffy, however they're shocked when the bullets pass right through him and he's left standing there un harmed, Luffy looks up smiling, puts the index fingers of both his hands up and points them at the men with the guns, lights his finger tips up in electricity and says
"Lightning Bullets!" And fires off bullets of Lightning right at the guns in their hands, destroying them and making the men drop them. The men continue to look on in shock as does Alvida but she's undeterred and says
"Alright then if bullets don't work lets try Sharp weapons. Get over there and Kill him!" The men look uncertain "Well what are you waiting for?! Get over there and kill that little Brat before I Kill YOU!" with that threat they all take out swords, and knives and rush forward, jumping towards Luffy, who sighs as he takes a special stance before saying quietly
"Shave" and then he vanishes again and suddenly all of Alvida's crew are sent flying in varying directions, most unconscious and with blood and/or spit running down their mouths, and after all of them have landed Luffy reappears. Koby who's been watching comes out of hiding with a look of Awe on his face and Says
"How did you do that? You just beat all of the Crew in an instant." Luffy smiles and says
"I'm a Marine and I was trained by 2 great Marines and learned many things from them." Koby looks shocked while Alvida looks slightly frightened and also annoyed, because she knows of the strength of some Marines and Knows that the technique he used is a move that only high ranking Marines know, but she just has to be stupid and says
"How did a Scrawny, stupid little brat like you get in to the Marines?" Luffy looking at her says
"I don't have to tell you anything. 'Iron Mace Alvida as of this moment you are under arrest for the crime of Piracy, and for Kidnapping this kid. Its time you learn your lesson. And I Lieutenant Monkey D. Luffy will gladly give it to you." and in and instant Luffy closes the distance between them and Punches her right in the Face while his fist is slightly encased in Haki, she goes flying head over heels and crashes right through the wall to her quarters. Koby Looks to him in admiration and awe and says
"Thank you thank you! You just saved my life from that woman! For the last year I've been forced to be her cabin boy." Luffy looks at him and says
"Hey Koby, what's your dream?" Koby looks at him a little taken a back but responds none the less "My dream is to be a strong Marine, kind of like you are now, and to one day become an Admiral." Luffy smiles at this and says
"Well then go for your dream now that your free. I'll even help you because its also My dream to be an Admiral of the Marines and I'm going to Fulfill that Dream!" Koby looks at him and says
"Luffy if we both become Admirals then we'll be comrades." Luffy says
"I know. I look forward to the day when we can work alongside each other after achieving our dreams." Koby starts crying at this and says
"Thank you Luffy." he wipes his eyes and says "Lets get out of here, we can take some of the stolen goods on this ship and transfer them to your boat and then set sail to the nearest Island." Luffy nods at this and so the two take a bunch of food and confiscate the pirates ill gotten treasure and set off back out to sea however before getting to far away Luffy takes out a Transponder-Snail and rings the line, when someone picks up he says
"This is Lieutenant Monkey D. Luffy calling to report that I have captured the Pirate Alvida and her crew, I will give you the coordinates of her ship, please send out a platoon to pick them up." he gives the coordinates and the voice on the other end says
"Good work Lieutenant Luffy, thanks to your efforts thats one less pirate in east blue, a ship has been dispatched and will pick up Alvida and her crew in a few hours. Her bounty will be sent to you at a later date" the Straw-Hat wearing boy smiles and says
"Thank you, Monkey D. Luffy Out." And hangs up the line. After that they really set sail to the next Island both wondering what the future will hold for them, and Luffy hoping that at the next Island he can find the first member of his crew. He thinks to himself "I really hope I can find my first crewmate at the next Island. And if theres another fight I really hope my next opponent isn't as weak as that Alvida Woman was. Oh well no matter what happens I look forward to the next Adventure, And Hopefully some good Meat! Shishishishi!"
Annnd Cut! Well theres the revised Chapter 1. I really hope everyone enjoyed it. Next chapter is the beggining of Shells town. and everyone will get to see how Marine Luffy reacts to Corrupt people using the name of the Marines to do evil. as always read and review. Untill next time.
