Some time early in the morning while the moon is still high. We see a adverage fishing boat you look closely theres a teenage boy leaning against the mass on deck. "Aw nothing like a little late night snack" The boy said as he patted his stomach.

"Now... i need a place to set anchor" he closed his eyes and re opened them showing them glowing golden yellow. "Come on im trying to go back to my nap please give me some luck" he hoped while searching the sea then he finds a Rocky small piece of land big enough to hide maybe a gallion size ship. He brings out the paddles and with his strength it wasnt hard to get there with in a few minutes shorter then regular time. He ties the ship up to a small jagged rock by the water keep his boat attached to the area he also dropped anchor just incase a the rope broke during his nap.

After taking a nap that lasted few hours he woke up to the sun raise on him after taking all his clothes off and putting on some shorts he jumped in the ocean to take a swim as he was swimming away from his boat to get a good work out he heard a bunch of noises behind him the sound of people. He then looked fowards and seen another ship it wasnt huge but it wasnt small and it looked fancy. He Stopped swimming and turned around to see a ugly pink ship come around the other side of the rock landscape firing the cannon towards him! as he got mad cause one almost hit him! "You bastards need to know how to aim!" he yelled not heard by anyone over the cannon fire. He caught one that came towards him agian being fired from to far a distance for witch ever canon they shot this one out of he threw back at the pirates aiming at the mass of there ship he hit it causing the ship to slow its fast pace now taking longer for the ship to reach its destination He smirked then decided to go see if he can grab something to eat on there ship if he can get rid the pirate's for them. Swiming faster to his destination jumped on board towards the back of the ship were nobody was thankfully.

He snuck around towards the rooms of the ship looking for a kitchen or something or clothes if the pirates got on board he shivered "i can smell some of them from here" he gagged not wanting to be touched by one of them just sea water cant get that out.

He not thinking or looking walked around a girl his age walking towards him also in a rush with a huge bag over her shoulders. As they passed eachother Luffy got a good smell of her multiple scents coming to his nose that he can already identify but the girls basic scent her main smell that probably won't wash off as easy "Tangerines" he said thoughtfully as he turned around to look at the girl now getting a good look at her back 'shes got a nice figure'

"Hey" he called out to her he gets a quick whiff of fear that breezed across his nose. 'Why would she be scared?' he sniffed again 'Money? a little gold and silver aswell? so she has a bag of treasure and she scared i called her out ...Ha!' he smirked

The girl the whole time was thinking her own thoughts 'Damn it im screwed! i wasnt expecting nobody back here. Can i take him?' she thought about knocking him out with a quick strike with her staff. 'Ill just wait till he get close and wham! right in the balls no matter how strong hes no fishman *shiver* so it should do the trick' she nodded to herself agreeing with the plan she thought of.

"You smell nice, Like Tangerines" he said

Nami gives a soft genuine laugh at the mention of her home. "You can say i grew up around them and the smell stuck to me" she said back not turning around now sad that she has to hurt some guy who doesnt deserve it.

"I can tell that there's money thats not yours in the big bag but seeing as i just jumped on this ship aswell i wont tell no one if you don't?" He said suggestively.

"So your not going to try to fight me for the money now are you?" she asked trying to sound challenging

"Naw i just came for some food then ill be out your hair *sniff sniff* uh the pirates just got on the ship you should probably head out, it was nice meeting you Tangerine Thief Hope to see you around" Luffy said as he disappeared from that spot before she got the chance to turn around to see the man who was just talking to her.

"Tangerine Thief?" She asked herself with a giggle 'I hope to see you too stranger' she thought as she walked off diseppearing from view aswell.

As Luffy opens a door to a knew room he smacks the other end of the door right into a pink haired kid with glasses. "Sorry didnt catch your scent with all this food around" Luffy said still walking inside not missing a beat he grabbed a barrel and began to fill it up with foods that looked good and can last him a while he did that with another barrel then took the last Rum barrel tied the 3 together and lifted it over his shoulders showing his muscles arent just for show.

He opened the door to be face to face with 3 awful stenches 'Holy shit my eyes are burning' Luffy thought he then glares at the 3 men imfront of him "I suggest you 3 onions move" he said seriously not wanting to smell them any more.

"Who are you talking to do you know that we are blood thirsty pirates!" one yelled breath hitting luffy so hard he thought he was punched by Aces Fire Fist.

"Move!" he said agian more seriously with a added growl ass his eyes glowed scaring the 3 men shitless as they backed away then ran screeming for captain Alvida?

"Fucking great her of all people hey Pink haired whimp are you with the pirates or the people getting raided?"

"Pirates not by choice though"

"Kidnapped?" luffy asked

"No i got on the wrong dingy to go fishing in pirates came and told me for being on there dindgy i had to be there cabin boy"

"No fight?" Luffy asked with a raised eyebrow

"No there pirates matter fact you should probably run, Alvidas club is super painful!"

"So a coward too? Look im out to be a pirate to so being scared of a few low level pirates shouldnt scare me and it dont im about to head out you coming or you staying?" Luffy summoned up bluntly

"Ummmm" the pink haired boy started shaking sweating.

Luffy rolled his eyes "Was your name?"

"Coby"

"Coby whats your dream?"

"To be a Marine Sir!"

"1 kid im not your sir were only a year or two apart your just short. 2 Your not going to be a Marine being a pirates crews play toy." 'Only when you find something you want bad enough is when trully only death can seperate you from it' Luffy thought to himself about how he felt about his dream his goal.

'Yeah i do want to be a marine!' he yelled in his mind. "i quit! im going to be a marine!" *Crash*

"Is that right, Coby?" A womens voice was heard.

"Eh?" Coby straight flat lined mind blank as he relized he was about to die.

"Shame, you got a long way to go runt" Luffy said as he caught the club in between the spikes stopping it completely not even budging, he then cocked back his right hand in a fist and faster then any of them could see punched her so far she flew up to the deck and flew off the ship. 'Damn i was trying to put haki in my hand to break the club and punch Alvida still 50/50 huh? guess ill wait for it to manifest a little better' he thought not at all suprised he punched a women all the way off a ship.

"Lets go Coby!" he said as he walked towards the edge of the side deck picked up his 3 barrels agian then placing coby under his right. Seeing as the marines are already on there way he soru to his fishing boat off to the side wear the Alvida pirates were first spotted.

He dropped Coby onto the small deck walked downstairs to store his food and rum next to the multiple barrels of water, beer, and food he still had stocked.Walked back up strairs.

"So Runt do you have a destination?" he asked the pink haired kid.

"Umm theres a town with a marine base not to far away from here i heared they caught roronoa Zoro!" Coby said excitetly

"Why would the Marines catch a bounty hunter?" Luffy asked him

"Because hes a demon in human skin they say he brings the bounty half dead"

"Dont bountys say dead or alive so why isnt the marines being called demons as well if they ask for people to kill who ever they deem necessary?" Luffy questioned the naive boy

"Umm i dont know"

"Live your life first see things then make your own decission on who is right and who is wrong runt Only listen to your own opinion" Luffy told the boy shutting him up lost in thought of what he was just told himself didnt notice the runt was also silent. 'Zoro huh? its time to go on a Demon hunt' he said eyes glowing with a smirk flashing his k9 teeth.
