"Ugh, I'm so hungry..." Luffy complained.
"It's funny how you have no navigation skills." Zoro stated.
"Well, we've always been wandering." Ruby said.
"Regardless, we should find a crew member with navigation skills much better than mine if we're going to the Grand Line." Weiss said. "And an actual ship." She added.
"And a cook, and a couple of musicians..." Luffy said.
"What are you going off on!?" Zoro yelled.
"Hey, a bird!" Ruby pointed out.
"Let's eat it!" Luffy said.
"How are we going to get it?" Zoro asked.
"Gomu Gomu no..." Luffy said as he stretched his arms to grab the mast. "Rocket!" He yelled as he flung himself towards the bird.
"Birdie, no!" Ruby yelled with comical tears running down her face.
Then they realized Luffy wasn't coming back down.
The bird had actually caught Luffy and showed no signs of letting go.
"IDIOT!!!" Everyone yelled as they started to row as fast as possible after the bird that had stolen their captain.
"Hey, stop the boat!" Three people in the water yelled.
"Hey, people are in trouble!" Ruby said.
"We don't have time to time to stop!" Zoro yelled. "Just grab on!"
"What did you say?" All three people asked.
They soon had their question answered when the boat sped by, the three people barely managing to grab on.
"Your climbing skills aren't bad!" Zoro commented.
"Stop the boat!" One of the people said, weapon drawn and the other two doing the same.
"This is the pirate Buggy the Clown's territory!" Another said.
"What!?" Ruby, Zoro and Weiss said in unison.
Not even ten seconds later, the three goons were beat up and laughing sheepishly.
"We didn't know you were pirate hunters Zoro and Weiss. We're so sorry!" One of the goons said as he was rowing the boat.
"So, why were you three floating at sea anyway?" Ruby asked.
"Good question!" One of the goons said. "It was that evil duo!"
"One tricked us and the other beat us up!" Another said.
"The three of us had just finished robbing a ship..."
"So much treasure!" Goon #1 said."Maybe captain Buggy will greatly reward us!" Said goon #2 as goon #1 noticed a small boat."Hey, what's that small boat doing over there?" He said as he then noticed something else. "There's someone fainted on the side of it!""Oh? It's a girl!" Stated goon #2 as they sailed over to her."Hey! You dead?" Goon #1 asked."Am I dreaming...?" The girl asked weakly. "I actually found someone in this vast ocean? If you want money, I'll give it to you. Just please save me." She said, patting the treasure chest next to her."It's too cramped in here..." Somebody whispered from inside the box. Nobody seemed to hear it, though."Sure, we'll save you." The goons said. "But, can we see that treasure first?""Sure, take whatever you want. Just please give me water first..." The girl said."What's the rush?" Goon #3 said, boarding the girl's boat to examine the treasure chest. "We'll save you, don't worry!"Little did the three goons know, when they were examining the chest, the girl snuck aboard their boat."Since you guys seem to like it so much, I'll give you the boat as a bonus!" The girl happily said while she was sailing away on their boat."HEY!!! GET BACK HERE!!!" The three goons yelled."Well, at least we got the treasure." Goon #1 said, opening the box.However, as soon as the box was opened, a boy with blonde hair and a tail sprung out and kicked goon #1 in the face."Whew! I can finally stretch!" He said."What the hell!?" All three goons yelled in unison."Alright, who's ass am I gonna kick first?" The blonde asked as he started pointing at each of them. "Einie meinie miney you."With quick movements, he ran over and delivered a strong right hook to goon #2's face, knocking him into the treasure chest, smashing it."Big guy's next!" He said as he did a handspring and planted both of his feet in goon #3's face and knocking him on top of goon #2."Wh-what are you!?" Goon #1 asked out of fear of his two comrades being beaten so easily."That's none of your business!" The blonde said as he jumped high into the air."Crushing Impact!" He yelled as he slammed his foot on the back of goon#1's head and putting a hole in the bottom of the boat."Hurry up!" The girl said from the other boat."Coming!" The boy yelled back and jumped to the other boat."I think you overdid it just a bit.""Hey, the plan was for me to sink the boat, wasn't it?"
And with that, the two thieves sailed away."And that's what happened." The goons stated.
"Those two sound like something special." Zoro said.
"If we go back empty handed, captain Buggy will..."
"Who's Buggy?" Ruby asked.
"You don't know about 'Buggy the Clown'?" Weiss asked. "He's an extremely dangerous pirate! Some say he has some kind of supernatural ability..." She added.
The goons nodded.
"Yeah, he ate one of the legendary 'Devil Fruits'." Goon #1 stated.
"WHAT!?" The three yelled.
Meanwhile, in a town with a large ship docked at it, three pirates were running after a girl holding a map.
"I finally it!" The girl said. "The navigation chart for the Grand Line!"
"Damn, if we don't get that navigation chart back, we're dead!" Said one of the pirates.
"If we let captain Buggy know what happened, we're going to have an ugly death!" Said another.
"Reporting in, captain Buggy! There's an unknown flying object in the air!"
"Use the canon and shoot it down!"
On command, the canons aimed at the object and fired, causing something to fall with a large crash right between the girl and the pirates.
"Someone fell from the sky!?" The three pirates yelled.
"Why did they shoot me with the canon?" A voice came from the rubble. "Damn..."
When the smoke cleared, all that was left was a certain straw hat wearing boy.
"He's still alive!?" The three pirates shouted.
"Whew! I finally landed!" Luffy said.
It was at that moment the sly girl had an idea.
"Oh, 'boss'!" She said. "I've been waiting for you to come and save me! I'll leave the rest to you!" She ran off
As she was running, a blonde boy landed next to her.
"What's going on?" He asked.
"Just keep running!" The girl said.
"I kinda wanna see how this turns out, though." The boy responded.
"Fine!" The girl knew him for a long time and knew how stubborn the boy can be, so she didn't even bother to argue.
They watched as one of the pirates hit Luffy in the head, causing his signature straw hat to fly off.
He caught it, however, and he was now clearly pissed.
"Don't you dare mess up my hat!" He said as he continued to beat the pirates to bloody pulps.
"He seems really strong." The blonde boy said.
"I just got an idea!" The girl said as she whispered the plan into the boy's ear.
