A different world can lead to surprises. The Strawhat crew had arrived in a place called the Mushroom Kingdom. But as soon as they arrived, they were confronted by a small fleet that wanted the Strawhats to leave. By not accepting their demands, the the small fleet of soldiers began to attack them. One soldier went down after the other as they stood no chance against the Strawhats. The battle soon ended as the princess of Mushroom Kingdom, Princess Peach, invited the Strawhats to her castle. Luffy and the others gladly accepted the offer, but what does the princess want with them? Will soon find out as the story continues...

Chapter 4: A town tour, An evil plan

Peach, accompanied by her steward, Toadsworth, is walking through the town with her invited guests, the Strawhats. As they were heading to the castle, the Strawhats got to see more of the town. "Woah! Check out that guy!" Luffy said as he was referring to a flower with a face and feet called 'Dayzees'.

Usopp's eyes popped out as he saw a bomb walking by called Bomb-ombs.

Chopper noticed a fish on plain land , talking to a toad. "Cooool!" Chopper said with big sparkling eyes.

Franky noticed some people going in a green pipe sticking out of the ground, but as soon as soon as they got in, they didn't get out. "Oooookaaayy..." Franky said a little freaked out.

Nami saw a cloud in the sky and noticed it had a face on it. "Of all the weird places we've been on, this is by far the weirdest one so far." Nami thought to herself.

Robin saw a turtle with wings delivering mail to some people before flying away. "Interesting..." was all that she had to say.

Zoro saw a fat guy with a zigzag mustache selling various things. What caught his attention was a katana sticking out of the fat guy's bag. He wanted to go and take a look at it, but he then realized he didn't have any money with him. He can't go ask Nami for some, because that will be like signing a contract to go to hell. "Hmm... I'll check that out later." Zoro said as he continue to follow Peach.

There were little creatures called Goombas looking at Sanji skipping by as if he was a little girl. Some people snickered as he walked by, but Sanji didn't even seem to notice as he was looking at Princess Peach's back with hearts in his eyes. "Sigh...What a glorious sight. Who ever thought that people from other worlds would look so beautiful as Nami-san and Robin-chwan." Sanji said as he continues to skip merrily through the town.

They arrived at the gates of the castle with two guards guarding it. "Welcome back, Princess Peach." said one of the guards as he bows down to her.

"Thank you. I invited some people over. Would you please let us in?" Peach asked kindly.

"Of course, princess." said the guard as he and his partner opened the gates.

"Thank you." Peach said as she and the rest follow went through except Franky, who was stopped by the guards.

"What's the big idea!?" Franky said.

"I'm sorry sir, but we can't allow you in." said the guard.

"Why not?"

"Well sir, people here think you are some sort of stripper since you have no pants on." said the guard. "If we let you in like that, we can't assure what kind of images you will give to the princess". Franky got angry upon hearing that.

"IMAGES!? Listen you pipsqueak. I am just a normal person as everyone else and I have the right to express myself!" Franky said as he was doing an awkward pose, which made the guards feel ill and made a guy who was watching puke in a trash can.

"Sir, as a royal guard of this gate, I will not allow people with no pants on through." said the guard in a stern way.

"Ohhh, I see what this is. You are a RACIST!" Franky said.

"WHAT!?" said the guard all baffled.

"You said so yourself. You won't allow people with no pants through this gate. You got a problem with people with no pants!?" Franky asked at the dumbfounded guard. He then looked at a Koopa walking by "Look at that guy; he has no pants, so that means you ain't gonna let him in too?! Franky said as the Koopa mentioned joined in the argument.

"Yeah man, what is your problem?! said the Koopa to the even more dumbfounded guard.

Soon everyone that had no pants started to yell at the guard.

"You think your better than us, huh!?"

"What makes you pant folks the right mock us no panters?!"

"You are going down, pant wearer!"

"WAIT JUST A SECOND!" said the guard all of a sudden. "How can all of you people agree with this person that you don't even know?" asked the scared guard.

"There is a name for that and it's called 'BROTHERHOOD'! GET HIM!" Franky shouted as every no pants person dog piled the guards and started to cause havoc at them. Franky then tiptoes through the gate and catches up with the crew.

The Strawhats were now in front of Peach's big castle. "Wow, it's so beautiful." Chopper said with his usual sparkling eyes.

"I couldn't agree with you more, Chopper." Sanji said as he was looking at Peach instead of the castle. Franky then shows up.

"What took you so long?" Zoro asked.

"Meh, I was talking to the guard at the gate about some stuff. I am pretty sure that he will remember our conversation for a long time." Franky said with an evil grin on his face.

Meanwhile...

At the gate, the no pants hater guard was unconscious due to the severe beating he took from the newly formed group known as the No Pants Allowed or NPA for short. "All right men, lets continue to express ourselves!" said the leader of NPA.

"YES SIR!" said his followers as they were marching to some distant place... pantlessly.

Back to the Strawhats...

The Strawhats followed Peach inside the castle. It looked just as good as the outside. It has blueish walls with clouds painted on. The floor has white and black square tiles with a emblem of a star with in the middle of the room, and there were stairs that lead up to the second floor. Overall, it was a nice looking place.

The Strawhats went up the stairs and went through the door to go into a hallway with large windows that you can see a nice garden outside. "Oi Luffy. Don't you think this is rather suspicious?" asked the whispering Usopp.

"What is so suspicious about a garden?" Luffy asked.

"No, you idiot. I mean that don't you think it's suspicious that a princess is inviting us to her castle after we beaten up almost every guard of hers? She must be leading us to some sort of trap." Usopp said.

Sanji overheard this and went straight to Usopp's face, "Oi, how dare you say something like that to Peach-san after all she is doing for us?!" Sanji asked furiously.

"Don't worry, Usopp." Luffy said. Usopp and Sanji looked at him and were curious on what he was going to say next. "Peach won't do anything bad to us. Besides, people who offer other people food are the ones to be always trusted." Luffy said with a big grin. Sanji just sighed after hearing that and Usopp looked at Luffy with a long face.

"There is no surprise that you will die before us..." Usopp said with a smug frown.

They soon entered the dining hall, which had a huge table with lots of fancy chairs with stars on top. Luffy rushed to a into a seat already having a fork and knife in hand. Peach sat at her usual spot at the end of the table. Usopp wanted to keep an eye on her, so he went to the chair close to her, but as soon as he was about to sit on the chair, Sanji went running straight at him and kicked him so hard that he hit the wall face first.

Sanji's I-am-going-to-hurt-you face suddenly changed into a I-am-deeply-in-love-with-you face as he sat down next to Peach, looking at her while hearts were coming out of his eye, since his other eye is always covered by his hair. Peach is confused at what just happened, but since nobody seemed to care, she decided to forget about it.

As everyone took their seats,except for Usopp who was still in pain, the chefs came in carrying delicious meals that could satisfy a giant. Luffy was so happy, that he didn't notice that his saliva was coming out of his mouth like if it was a waterfall. Nami shut Luffy's mouth to avoid a flood. "Bon appetite!" said the main chef as he and his co-chefs left the room.

"All right! Lets eat!" Luffy said as he stretched his arm all the way to where the turkey was, but Nami stopped him by stepping on his foot. "Ow! Nami what was that for?"

"Idiot, You can't eat everything like you always do until we at least introduce ourselves to the very rich princess." Nami said while pointing at Peach, who was in shock to see Luffy stretch his arm all the way like that.

Toadsworth was the first to ask, "Y-Young man, how did you do that just now!?"

Luffy then pulled the left side of his mouth. "I ate a fruit that made me become a rubberman." Luffy said.

Peach then started to giggle as he saw Luffy extending his mouth like that. "-Sigh-... Peach-san looks extra beautiful when she giggles like that." Sanji said while still looking at her.

"Idiot." Zoro said while drinking some beer. Sanji then got angry and rushed into Zoro's face.

"What did you call me?" Sanji asked with a threatening voice.

Ignoring Zoro and Sanji for a moment, Luffy and the rest started to introduce themselves. "My name is Monkey D. Luffy and I am going to be the pirate king." Luffy said all proud of himself, even though he didn't achieve it yet.

"My name is Nami, and I am the navigator of this great, yet idiotic crew." Nami said as she was looking at Luffy stuffing the turkey down his throat... again.

"My name is Chopper, and I am the doctor of the crew." Chopper said as he walked up to Peach.

"Aww, you look so adorable." Peach said, as she pets Chopper on the head. Chopper was about to do his Happy dance, fortunately Nami came just in time and covered Chopper's mouth.

"He says thank you for the compliment." Nami said as Chopper was cursing even though his mouth is covered.

"I am Nico Robin and I am an archeologist of the crew." Robin said kindly.

"Ow! I am the one who built the greatest ship for these guys and I am their current shipwright, The Great Frrranky." Franky said while doing his traditional pose on the table.

"Master Franky, please refrain from getting on the table again and sit back down please!" Toadsworth said. Franky then sat back down and mumbled some stuff.

After the stare down with Sanji, Zoro sat back down and said "My name is Zoro." and that's all he had to say before Luffy snatched Zoro's food from his plate. "Why you... give that back!" Zoro said before lunging at Luffy, trying to rip his face apart. Usopp then popped up in front of Peach, almost startling her, giving his proper introduction to her.

"I am the most feared man that ever existed, even the gods don't want to mess with me. I am what they call 'The Lord of Destruction'. They call me USSSSSOOOOOO...whoaaaaa!" Usopp couldn't finish that sentence due to kick he received again from Sanji.

Peach is concerned over Usopp's condition, but is stopped as Sanji, with a rose in his hand, looked smoothly at Peach. "I am Sanji. I am the cook of Nami-san and Robin-chwan and those other guys. I am the most handsome skilled chef that does not ever lay a foot on a lady. I am what you call 'Mr. Prince'. As soon as I laid eye on you, I instantly felt as if I was in heaven. Please, take this, as a gratitude for giving me that feeling." Sanji said as he gave her the rose.

Peach blushed at this. "Why, thank you, Sanji, you are the first one who has ever said that to me. I'm flattered." Peach said before smelling the aroma of the rose. Sanji's cool expression suddenly faded as he started jump with joy while making a happy gorilla face.

"IT WAS NO PROBLEM, PEACH-SAN! I'LL DO ANYTHING FOR YOU!" Sanji said before he started to skip around the room saying 'Mellorine' with each step he took.

Meanwhile...

In the dark areas of the Mushroom Kingdom lies all that is evil. He bathes in molten lava, being bad is what he is very good at, he is none other than the evil King Koopa, Bowser. Bowser is sitting in his throne room half awake. He hasn't come up with any good ideas to capture Peach lately and every time one of his lackeys thinks of an idea for him, he simply beats the heck out of them.

"Your Chunkiness!" shouted an elderly female koopa at Bowser.

"WHAT DO YOU WANT, KAMMY!? CAN'T YOU SEE THAT I AM THINKING OF WAY TO KIDNAP MY BELOVED WIFE PEACH!? Bowser said very furiously. Bowser happened to marry Peach thanks to the actions of Count Bleck a couple of months ago. Although it wasn't a legal marriage, Bowser still thinks Peach as his beloved wife...how sad.

"I apologize for that, your evilness, but you should know that some pirates have recently arrived at the capital of the Mushroom Kingdom." Kammy said.

Bowser than suddenly got up and looked at her "Who gives a crud if a bunch of pirates go to the capital!? Do I look like the mayor or something? Besides, there is always Mario to go and save the day as always. Curse that Mario for always ruining my plans! When will there be video game that makes me the main character and not him!?" Bowser said before he repeatedly stomps his foot on the ground, making his entire castle shake.

I know how you feel your dreadiness, but we had a report saying that Princess Peach invited those pirates over to her castle." Kammy said. Bowser then stops stomping at the ground.

"Invited the pirates? What for?" Bowser asked. Bowser then thought of something so brilliant, it should not fail. "Kammy, I just thought of an idea, and those pirates will play a big part of it. GWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!" Bowser said as his laughter echoed through the emptiness of the dark clouded sky.
