Honestly, I don't have any confidence in doing this story. To me, this story isn't good enough. After months of sitting around and doing school, I thought of taking the fic to a new direction. Well, even though I had only thought of the fanfic in brief moments here and there, I might, just might, focus on Nami a little more? Rather than whatever it is that I'm doing now in any case. So, it might become . . . a Nami centric time traveling story. With other important people seen often. Yeah. And then I'll tell myself to get over the no confidence thing.
Here are some outlines that I was going to follow and try to keep up. But, now I don't think I'm going to follow up much on it anymore. They've just been sitting around collecting dust.
In a strange twist of the hand, the Straw Hat Pirates find themselves back in time before they come under one flag.
Outline
Problem: The World Govt had gone too far corrupted. The Celestial Dragons having everyone on the palm of their hands. Only a few and the helpless managed to survived this moral undoing.
Solution: They try to take care of the problem before it turns out of hand. Luffy makes allies within the world of pirates.
Outline
The strawhats become aware of their predicament.
They think up on a answer for their past and each in their own way do they recruit their own people.
Nami recruits her own band of fishman pirates by being the scary navigator that she is. She's going to have to think up of a way to fight though.
Usopp isn't likely to get the Pirate Kuro off his back, so he's going to figure a way out of that one. He's gonna have the whole village's back on that one. But, he's also gonna meet luffy.
Zoro is going to be best swordsman in this one. He'll only be a grade lower than mihawk though. He'll still be met up with Luffy, though.
Brook is going to have to face his fears and defeat the warlord himself, because he has the power now. He'll gain a lot of people's backing that way.
Chopper will have to face up to his fears and study harder than ever. As some time goes by, he tries to study up on their past enemies and try to further his knowledge.
Franky on the other hand, he's going to have to make some nice with the Mayor and his shipwrights. He struggles on some of the problems along the way, but, by using his skills, he tries to rebuild himself up the franky version 2.0. I guess thy can have some control with the city instead of being thugs.
(Franky and Brook can meet up in the Florian Triangle and get to the archipelago that way. Then they could meet up with a few people.)
(Luffy meets up with Zoro as usual with Coby. They know that he was one of the few not lost to the world, so they try to interact with him as usual. Then they go on their way to get lost only to find Buggy again. Luffy laughs and then has Buggy alliance with him. Nami joins Luffy. Then they go up to Nami's town to beat up Arlong and kick him out. Nami regains the factions. Arlong hears a piece from Nami and doesn't hold much of a killing grudge anymore.)
Sanji is stuck on the baratie, but he does think up of strategies. Like say, a tactical place to have their haven on. Eventually as Luffy comes on time, The beat up Don Krieg and have a force of pirates allied with Gin.
They head onto the next island without much to look forward to, other than Luffy meeting up with Dragon. Luffy talks with is father, having to talk to him about various things such thus far. They make plans and stuff for the future.
Robin on the other hand contacts the revolutionary through den den. They manage to get onto lines with Dragon. Dragon is here and keeps Crocodile in line with a fight. Robin meets up with Sabo. Then she becomes a new contact for the revolutionary. Crocodile, being in within sight becomes an ally for Robin. In mutual understanding after Crocodile something drastic. They thought to turn the desert into their base, a secondary base.
I guess when Luffy gets there, Crocodile will fight him.
The desert island does eventually kick out Crocodile and his companions, after the fight. Crocodile tags along with Dragon.
Vivi doesn't catch the news on time but is still along with the crew.
BTW Robin will meet up with Luffy and his crew for a bit while going back to the island, she's caught them up with their plans.
On the Desert Island, while bringing back Vivi home, he meets up with Ace and breaks down. (I guess that's when he gets picked on by Crocodile)
Ace tries to go anyway to go fight Teach.
Luffy goes ahead and fights his brother with the whole crew. After some time, Luffy manages to get Ace.
Ace then notifies Whitebeard that he isn't going to go get Blackbeard anymore.
Ace departs back to the fleet, while the straw hats escort him and make sure he doesn't get out.
They meet with Whitebeard along the way after they've gone to Sky Island.
The whole Pirate Crew is here, well, most of them.
I guess Franky and brook got onto the Desert island to find Robin after they've gotten a message. They headed over back to the Winter Island to pick up Chopper.
After some time, They head back to the bubble island. (Maybe the guys who know about the past come together to write a book of their past adventures and someone who can time travel went into that world to bring them to here.)
Robin is up in Sky Island trying to uncover even more things. So, she goes back a bit later than the rest of the crew. She finds something interesting pertaining to ancient lore about other beings beyond this planet.
While the crew is with Water 7, they kind of sit around there trying to make allies for themselves. Robin returns only to be captured again, but with this time, they manage to do a counter kidnapping. They've been planning.
Their meet with Garp had been an odd one. It had been hilarious as they did try to get away on time again. They meet up with Coby and talk.
As they make leave for the next place, Sanji stays behind at water seven to make a few plans about their safe heaven.
Luffy meets up with Blackbeard again and Luffy fights him this time, though somehow, Blackbeard had still gotten away.
So what were chopper, Brook, and Franky doing on their time?
Scouting out for some people. Also, going back and forth to Fishman Island while trying to wipe out some of the bad pirates.
They gain some knowledge about the place here. How it could relate to Pluton and the Ship.
Luffy and some crew are heavily damaged trying to fight off Blackbeard.
They do end up at the bubble island anyway and try to make allies there.
Although, at the place, They do try to go their separate ways once more.
Robin back to the revolutionary.
Luffy back to Amazon Island. He befriends The Kuja Pirates and as some Cosmic Joke, Boa is once again targeting Luffy. Rayleigh is once again with them, so they don't have to worry about much. He takes to strengthening his body with poisons again. He tells Rayleigh all about the future.
Chopper back to the island where there were plants. He tries to come up with more different ways to configure the devil fruits. That and have some powerful allies. He studies with Trafalgar Law because frankly, he has nothing better to do.
(Nami and Chopper meet up again soon.)
Nami gets sent to a flying island once more to make allies out of them and to further her research and knowledge. She goes back to the Sky Islands to check up on Robin's behalf only to find their enemy once more. Of course, she beats him up after a major fight, and much more easily, too because of all the rubber bands around. And plus, her own way of negating those attacks.
Usopp back to the island to get the plants and to figure a way to make use of te island that are here. It could come in handy and some good training for the allies back there.
Franky ends up at the place where vegapunk used to live. Franky goes with Kuma to figure out the machinations of the current Vega Punk in hopes they can do something with this later.
Sanji is once again, painstakingly sent back to Kamabakka Kingdom once more. Though this time, he's allowed to leave the island every now and then again. He explores even weirder worlds to make up some ideas. He becomes somewhat knowledgable in Chemistry.
Brook starts his place somewhere in the grandline to start up his singing career in hopes that the hope sung within would make it out there with them. He is in the New World and checking up with the underworld. He keeps eyes on their allies and make sure everyone is okay.
Zoro is back again to where mihawk is while sparring with him and thinking about what he could do with the island there. He meets up with The former residents of Thriller bark here once again. Perona is once again, back here because of Kuma.
Nami could go find Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper.
Sanji can find Robin easily. They often get updated about the works in the organization. And other things the world is headed up to.
Zoro meets up with Shanks and goes off with them after the prep on the island.
Brook finds Franky along the way.
Vegapunk only has so much of these ideas because, he's a time triavller. And in such an instance, he time traveled the strawhats and whoever else was there to ensure the safety of the world at hand.
Ace, finding out that Black Beard had gone on to fight Luffy got enraged again and headed after him.
For some reason yet again, Luffy couldn't change that. They had to try and go save him again. But this time, all of the strawhats were there to help him out. They barely managed to save Ace.
They managed to get out alive.
In this time, they safely managed to get to the island that luffy was on. Sanji was drooling lol.
And then, that's when Dragon had shown up with Sabo on the Island.
The admirals don't expect much at this time's war so the strawhats were able to get away, but some of the stronger ones had held them back and had done them some damage.
In this time, Law and Luffy make an alliance. Rather than two years ahead.
(And then here's this other outline. I also don't care if you'd like to use it to your advantage or add it to your stories if you were thinking of that. I just wanna read more fics, you know?)
SHR Timeline
Goal: Beat Blackbeard before he destroys the world.
Luffy and Nami and Sanji meet up to plan.
Usopp and Kaya and his pirate guys are getting ready with drills and training.
Zoro and Coby and Helmeppo are on Shells island making some good work. (They over throw Morgan and then head back to their ways.)
. . .
The Thousand sunny lands in the east blue along with a bunch of rowdy folk and Sabo. Some of The 12 supernova are here including Bartolomeo. Kidd, Law, Bonney, Urouge, and maybe Drake. We actually don't know what happened to him. He's important though. They try to make sense of the East Blue.
. . . Meanwhile, in the future, everyone else is handling the stuff and wars against blackbeard.
. . .
Robin made her way to Chopper. They met with Vivi along the way. Vivi doesn't remember but she slowly does. She goes on her own route though.
Then they head over to Reverse Mountain to meet up with Luffy.
. . .
Luffy, Nami, and Sanji beat up the Arlong pirates.
Hachi remembers everything!
They take a little detour to Syrup village, meeting Gin. Gin was suspicious at first, but then . . .he remembered who Sanji was.
Then the Arlong pirates are officially now apart of an underling working with the strawhats for now. They travel to Syrup Village to get to Usopp. They were in the middle of uncovering secrets and stuff to merry.
They use the ship of the Arlong pirates to get there.
Everybody tries to play nice. Usopp leaves Kaya and the three brave boys while a few of the fishmen leave here to learn more about people.
The fishmen are now exclusively delegated to getting lots and lots of money through bounty hunting. And also searching for treasure at the bottom of the seas.
. . .
The Thousand Sunny are at Logue Town. This attracts the attention of Smoker and his gang. They watch out for the pirates and notice a mention of Luffy.
Luffy and everybody head to Loguetown to get what they need. The fishmen are with them, including Hachi.
Zoro gets his sword.
And then they gather out. They're super weirded out that Sunny is there, but ah well.
. . .
Robin and Chopper speak to the doctor in the whale. Then as they were, Luffy came in.
It was a shock.
. . .
Everybody heads out.
Urouge is looking for ways to get to sky island. Once he does, he'll let them know and have them brought up. They're gonna beat up Enel.
Luffy goes by the path next to Jaya again anyway. Everybody was like ohmg whyy
Also, Vivi, Carue, and Igaram are here with them. They were on some sort of mission and then thought that Robin was doing something really suspicious and that's why they followed them and hid in their ship, though they were found out just in time and everything.
. . .
They beat up enel. Nami gets all the gold. Everybody has a good time. Vivi and Robin are at an understanding and then go to Alabasta.
This is easy because Nami is best Navigator.
. . .
They end up meeting Smoker. No Ace. Luffy had a dream though, along with Sabo.
And then Everyone's looking for Crocodile to beat his face in. Also, Kohza had a helping hand. Though it took a while.
. . .
Then they head straight down to water 7.
Apparently, Franky had been trying to build a ship big enough with Iceberg. Also, Brook came by to get a whole load of salt. Then they meet up. They confront CP9, Lucci also from the future with the help of Vegpunk are here to fight luffy and make sure he doesn't mess up anything according to rules.
Fight ends, they don't end up fighting anyone.
. . .
Drake is surprised that the Marines had been split into factions of people who sided with Luffy and those who didn't. Some of them had been brought back from the future and they were secretly setting up some things. He meets up with Boa Hancock during one of the island's perimeter checks. He scathes by closely enough by accidently mentioning Luffy. And then Boa started swooning.
. . .
They go to Thriller Bark. They end up hurting Moria. Everyone gets their shdows back. Zoro gets a new sword. Then everyone is back in business along with Brook. Beating up Moria was pretty easy this time around because Brook handled mostly everything.
. . .
Water 7 goes by without incident. And they head to Fishman Island with Hachi.
Water 7 was seriously just as twisted as usual. They meet up with Rayleigh and the lady who smokes all the time.
She guessed everything correctly. Rayleigh is just like, is that so?
Boa made sure to contact Rayleigh and see if a pirate named Luffy ever crossed by. They did and then they went off into Amazon Lily with everybody.
. . .
Uh. Oh . . . The allies in the future are slowly dwindling away. Blackbeard makes it back in time just enough to escape from death. The future is worried, but they continue to rebuild it in hopes that Luffy will return one day.
. . .
They meet up with Boa. And Drake. And also Jinbe, because what a surprise. Then they head down to Fishman Island, Boa especially since she's gonna try to strike up conversation to hold an alliance between them and the Kuja Pirates. Drake tells them the plans of the marines and then stop at the Archipelago. He's still currently Vice Admiral. IKR?
Luffy, seeing the Whitebeard flag pasted on the wall remembered Ace again.
. . .
Blackbeard is now trying to get a hold of the fruit he once owned. He would try to get back his things. Luffy is not yet mentioned in the news yet. Deals with Crocodile are covered up.
Smoker does not give chase this time around because he's got goals.
. . .
Jinbe contact the royals.
The crew meet up with the royals.
They see Cami.
Slowly, the whole entire fricking island remembers Luffy.
They confront with the old baddies from last time. Noah's Arc wasn't used. And Every baddie is once again fined and Jailed.
Shirahoshi can now somewhat rove around the places.
Jinbe stays here.
Boa gets alliance signed. Heads back up with Hachi's help. And also, Drake heads to HQ to look at some things. And research more about BlackBeard's devil fruit. He also happens on history of Kingdoms and kingdoms related to the void era with Robin, Absalom. Perona.
Apparently, Moria was defeated, but he had to go elsewhere. Honestly, He was sent away somewhere because of Kuma.
And then yeah. So they're here in hopes that they'll find him again.
. . .
Law, Zoro, Chopper, and Nami are on the Find Golden Lion Shiki group.
Luffy, Usopp, and Sanji, and Franky are headed off to Fight Doflamingo. Brook and Barto come along.
Kidd and Killer make way to follow Nami.
Bonney stays at Fishman Island for a bit before heading out to find Whitebeard. And if she could help it, kick black beard's ass. So she contacts him . . . and then she meets Shanks. Why was he here, she didn't know. Anyway, she hitched a ride.
. . .
Team Marine HQ find out that they were being helped by Garp and now; Helmeppo and Coby. Also, Sengoku happened to be there. They tried to keep a secret on things. Also, Tsuru. But, anyone else was a no. Although, one of them happened to remember Robin.
I guess a fight breaks out with Akainu sooner or later. He loses of course and then tied up with Sea Stone Cuffs. Sengoku tries to explain everything.
The three admirals try to get ready for the future.
. . .
Urouge is along with Enel somehow and also so is Conis. None of them liked Enel, so what they ended up doing was to but seastone material on him. Urouge still didn't like him.
They discover stuff about history.
. . .
Team Golden Lion meet up with Shiki themselves and ask of an alliance with him. They needed to strike up a deal somehow. Shiki remembers Nami and then some Straw hat boy. He doesn't capture her again though. He's like, yea h im not gonna make your captain angry, that was some real scary stuff last time.
. . .
Team Luffy is right off the bat, fighting Doflamingo. Fujitora is also there, slightly remembering the incident that happened. Also, this time, he heps to beat him up. They do end up beating him up. Nami's deal was successful and she led everyone to dressrosa. Also, that was when they helped pick up after Luffy. Erhm . . .Shiki gladly handed out his denden mushi number. Luffy was really scary, so shiki decided to let the people on his island go. They ended up in Dressrosa. Usopp is still God Usopp because he knows how to fight the best there. Franky vs. that guy again . .
. . .
Smoker is brought into HQ along with Tashigi.
Reasons: Straw Hat time travel top secret. Beat up Blackbeard. He understood it when he saw it.
. . .
From here on out, Law takes over the reigns of the pirates that wanted to stay. Or they could be thrown to HQ. And that wasn't a problem. Nami loved her money after all. She and Shiki somehow became good friends after all. Because of their love for resources.
. . .They head over to HQ to drop off all the pirates and then get their bounties. For Real. They were also gonna talk about the white disease.
. . .
Luffy now heads back down to Fishman Island to evacute the people on the arc. He had a feeling that big things were going to start really soon.
. . .
Other members of the Black Beard pirates made their way to meet him on Jaya Island after all the strawhats had somehow or another left. They were waiting for Blackbeard.
Also, Blackbeard had somehow gotten his hands on the fruit. He almost killed Thatch. Ace had died instead this time. For some reason, he didn't have his fire ability. What was this?! He's Alive! WHAT!? AND HE REMEMBERS EVERYTHING! GASPPPPP
Black beard high tailed it out of there. Thatch gave chase.
Ace woke up a bit later. And then he went to go to chase after Thatch.
Also regaining his fire ability that was now somehow a part of him.
. . .
Sabo and the revolutionaries help out with the planning and the doing. They were going to raid Mariejoas and the world government.
Robin's group basically does the same.
Everybody does this.
Enel accidently fires off a weapon. That then hits the Palace after everyone had gone out. Black Beard was on top trying to get what he needed, which was all the devil fruits. That didn't work. Luffy was there. As the rubble fell. They were having the most intense battle of their lives. The fishmen were helping. The 8500 men were helping. Barto was trying to keep everyone safe. Shiki was trying to get some of the rubble stable while trying to help kill off the other black beards.
The marines were also helping out in evacuating the entire fucking earth. Coby and Helmeppo were alongside Luffy Helping him out when he was tired. They shot bullets made of seastone and then . . .Blackbeard tried his remaining energy to destroy strawhat.
Black beard was on his last stand.
Luffy was slowly getting awfully tired. The strain a 14 year old body was big.
Then, Robin had handled him the most important thing. The device used to suck out the devil fruit out of people or things. Luffy used that on Black Beard. The device broke midway. The devil fruit lost its ability to transfer out. It lost its effectiveness totally.
Luffy won. He passed out. He won.
The very moment Blackbeard died, every person on the planet clearly remembered the history of the lost time that luffy hadn't gone through and whatever else. It was a miracle.
The thousand sunny fell asleep again, probably never ever going to use that power ever again.
Aftermath:
The seas were somewhat calmer after the One Piece had been found by Luffy. Nami was the happiest woman on earth. Robin found the ancient and lost history in that place. Luffy returned the Strawhat to Shanks. But then was given back. Shanks was so proud.
The fishmen and the humans startled to try to get to know each other.
The skypeans had also gotten rid of Enel.
The world government no longer existed. The history was shared with every people. The marines tried to get the rate of piracy down as quickly as he could. There were a new set of people now, and they were people going for peace, either with the Revolutionry Army or with the Marines.
Damn.
And that's the end of this fanfic.
Yup. Then everyone goes their own ways pretty much.
Nami's dream is now the most achieved. Brook met Laboon. Usopp became the bravest warrior of the seas.
Luffy, Sabo, and Ace meet once again as brothers. The whole world now knows of their story.
(And then this here, I was going to make a part of the fic, but I wasn't sure. It's sort of like a prelude to all of this.)
Vegapunk was frustrated. No other emotion can play up to what he was feeling right now. With the knowledge of machines more than advanced enough for this time period . . . It apparently had not been enough to find One Piece. His efforts in vain, his sanity held on by a frayed string, Vegapunk made his way to where the prisoners were. The Strawhats.
One of them stirred awake, Zoro, but he didn't move. The soldiers that were guarding were moving them out to somewhere, but he couldn't tell where.
As minutes went on by and by, they ended up in a room. They've all been shut and strained onto tables meant to restrain them without effort.
As far as Zoro could tell, the lights in the room had brightened up considerably. There was buzzing around the room, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw Vegapunk. The scientist that had been in charge of using them for experiments.
But, without continuing any further, Zoro bunked out in the blink of an eye.
He panicked and thought of the other captured pirates that were here with them.
Again, before he could think too much about them, he slowly blacked out.
(And I also honestly don't know if I'm going to be using this, or thinking about this, as I write out the story. If anything, I hope this does inspire writers to some extent, but whatever. . . And I swear I had this other outline for the story . . . If I can't find it or it never existed in the first place, I'll notify. And once again, this fic will update every Sunday.)
Thanks for liking the fic so far and following it, and all that other plus things that this website does.
About the new story, I'll still be uploading it to this, so I am going to use the other chapters still.
