Scoopball98 here coming with a new story. I know I had the Naruto x Kuroko one, but I got the inspiration to do this one and here we are.

I know this isn't exactly canon Naruto. Just because the Naruto I'm using in this story won't be an orange wearing, ramen eating loudmouth does not mean that this is just an OC with his name slapped on. Think of it as a different version of Naruto. if you want the canon Naruto, then go watch the anime or go in the Naruto only section on here.

The devil fruit I decided to use is based off of Overhaul's quirk in MHA. Aizenthegoat gave me the idea, and I liked it over the one I originally thought of so here we are. Granted, it'll have some limitations so you won't have to worry about him being 'Godlike'.

This is the 2nd story I've uploaded, and even then I only have 1 chapter out for the other one. So as a new writer, if you see anything that could use some work or you see something you don't like, feel free to tell me. Somewhere along the lines of "here's what you did, but here's what I would've done." Reviews like that definitely help rather than just straight up flaming.

This may be a harem, I'm not quite sure yet. If it is, it won't be anything big. Probably only 3 girls max.

Anyways I hope you guys enjoy this story

10 years before canon

Standing on the deck of 'The Moby Dick' looking out towards the sea, is a young boy standing around 5 feet tall with an already muscular body. He has blonde hair, blue eyes, and 3 whisker-like marks on each cheek. He was wearing a white shirt and blue shorts. After 10 years of living, he's already seen more than most people out there. This young boy is Naruto Newgate, son of Edward "Whitebeard" Newgate.

Since birth, Naruto has accompanied his Father, and his crew due to his mother having died giving birth to him. With him being the son of Whitebeard, it made his growth unlike any other person his age. Granted, this ended up being a positive thing to young Naruto since it allows him to train his body harder and it's something else that connected him with his dad. Growing up on his dad's ship has been something fun for him to experience. With the crew referring to his Father as "Pops", his Dad had taken to calling them his sons. It felt like he was part of one big family.

Growing up around so many people, he's had a lot of different people to be able to train him. 2 of his dad's commander's, Jozu and Marco are the ones who train him the most though. After 5 years of training, he has finally gotten permission from his dad that he can accompany him and the crew the next time they dock at an island rather than staying on the boat like he usually does.

He had to have a spar with Marco to show that he can hold his own. After getting thoroughly smacked around, with him only getting a couple of shots in by getting past Marco's guard. Though he suspected Marco had created openings on purpose, his dad called it, and announced that he had impressed him enough to have him accompany them on the island.. After getting the confirmation from his dad that he's able to come with them, he set out to his cabin to gather anything he might need.

Coming back out of his cabin, he saw that they were approaching an island. When they got closer so he could see the island better, he noticed a volcano, a waterfall, and trees that stood at 100 ft surrounding the island. Looking at the scenery in front of him, he just knew he'd be able to find something cool.

"Hey pops, what'd you say was the name of this island again?" Naruto asked his dad while looking around more.

Hearing his son's question, he turned to him and answered "It's a place I've only been to once, and even then I didn't explore all of it. It's called The Eroded Isle" he replied with a small smirk on his face.

'The Eroded Isle, huh? I wonder if I can explore the spots pops didn't get to' Naruto thought to himself while feeling a little giddy about the potential adventure he's about to embark on. "I wonder if i can go out and explore on my own?" Naruto mumbled to himself, looking around making sure no one overheard him.

Going back to the side of the ship, Naruto was bouncing on the heels due to the excitement he was going through, getting many amused smiles from the rest of the crew. Looking up when someone tapped him, he saw Thach standing beside him with a smile on his face.

"Pops said I was to accompany you on the island, Naruto. So make sure you don't cause me too much trouble" Thach said with a chuckle, looking at Naruto who pouted at being called trouble.

"Well I won't make any promises or anything, but I promise that I won't be TOO much trouble" Naruto said putting an extra emphasis on 'too" while crossing his arms. 'Now I really hope that I can get away. Don't wanna cause too much trouble, but I really want to explore on my own. I know I can probably handle any animals that try to come after me' Naruto thought to himself as he noticed they were docked at the island now.

"Alright kid, you ready to get off?" Thach asked a beaming Naruto

"You bet! I'm ready to go all around this island and try to find all kinds of cool things!" Naruto exclaimed with a determined gleam in his eyes

"Well then, let's go!"

Walking around the island with Thach, Naruto was taking in all of his surroundings. Since it was the first time he's gotten to step off the boat onto an island, he was looking at everything with an excited gleam in his eyes. Hearing noise above him, he looked up to see a bird unlike any he's seen before. It stood around 3 feet, had a long yellow beak, with red and purple coloring its feathers.

"Hey, do you see that bird? I don't think I've seen one this big before" Naruto asked Thach while motioning to the bird he recently found.

"Yeah, I've seen all kinds of different animals from my journey's with Pops" Thach said with a smile on his face. "Pick out some berries and see if he comes to you" he said pointing over to a bush with berries on it.

Walking over to the bush and looking at the berries, he picked out a red looking one. Glancing over at Thach who made a 'go on' motion, he whistled for the bird and held out his hands with the berries. Noticing the bird coming towards him after he caught its attention, he went ahead and grabbed a berry with his other hand to get ready to give it to the bird. Seeing the bird land in front of him, he throws the berry towards the bird who in return snatches it out of the air.

"I like you, I think I'm going to name you Eren" Naruto said while tossing more berries into the now named Eren's direction for him to eat. "Alright I'm all out of berries now Eren, it was nice to meet you" he said while petting Eren before he flew away leaving Naruto alone again with Thach again.

A bit disappointed that it left him already, Naruto went back to standing by Thach. 'Besides I have a feeling that won't be the last time I see Eren. I'm sure I'll eventually see him again' Naruto thought to himself.

"Alright kid, let's get moving. We still have plenty of things to see while on this island." Thach said to Naruto while they started to walk

Nodding his head in response, Naruto quickly fell behind Thach. Moving along the path, he saw many things he's never encountered before. There were more big animals like Eren, he saw a lot of different types of plants and flowers. He was walking as he noticed the sound of roaring water. Looking up, he saw that they were getting closer to the waterfall he noticed while on the ship.

"Oi Naruto!" Thach said getting his attention "stay here will ya? I gotta take a piss" he told him before he went off a little to go relieve himself

'This is great! Now I can go off and explore on my own for a little. I think I'll go over to that waterfall to check it out.' Naruto thought to himself feeling excited for the potential adventure he's about to go on.

Looking over his shoulder in the direction that Thach went off to, Naruto decided the coast was clear and quietly snuck off. Once he was far enough now, he started to sprint in the direction of where the waterfall is at. As he got closer, he noticed a lot of bushes with fruits on them.

When he got to the riverbank, he decided to take a swim for a little bit. Taking his shirt off he stepped in the water. Going further in, he started to start swimming. After a few minutes of swimming, he realized he was getting hungry. Getting out of the river, he headed for the direction of where he spotted the fruit bushes earlier.

Grabbing a few and eating them, he walked further back to find some shade so he could eat his fruits. Finding a spot and sitting down, he proceeded to eat his fruit while taking in the beautiful scenery in front of him. Right as he finished the last one he saw another bush out of the corner of his eye behind the waterfall.

Deciding to check it out, he walked over to behind the waterfall. Noticing a fruit on it, he decided to get a better look at it. Having a better look at the fruit, he noticed how weird it looked. It was gray with the top of it being red. On one side of the fruit is spiky and had an uncontrolled appearance, while the other side had a smooth and controlled appearance.

Realizing he's never seen a fruit with such a weird look to it, he began wondering how it tasted. Shrugging his shoulders, he decided to take a bite. Not taking a chance just in case it does taste bad, he began to take fast bites all over the fruit. When he got to the last bite, he realized just how bad it tasted. however, his dad didn't raise a quitter, so he went ahead and swallowed it rather than spitting it out.

"Holy shit, that was the worst thing I've ever tasted. Why did it taste so bad?" Naruto asked with a disgusted look on his face.

Going back to where he originally was before he found the bizarre fruit, Naruto felt like something about his body changed. Shrugging, he sat back down under the tree to relax. As he was sitting down, he didn't notice the rock he touched on the way down to seemingly dismantle a second after he touched it.

After 10 minutes or so, he decided to go swimming again. Getting a running start, he jumped into the water. As soon as he touched the water, he could tell something was wrong, he could feel his body getting weaker. As the water passed his neck, he felt his body begin to sink like a rock. The last thing he saw before he was completely submerged was Thach running in the treeline towards him.

Flashback to when Naruto left Thach

Walking off to go take a piss, Thach didn't notice how Naruto seemed to be antsy waiting for him to leave. Walking deeper in the forest, he began to think about his young charge. Back when Pops first introduced him to the crew, it threw everyone in for a surprise. They all knew how much he valued family, with having a big family as his dream. Yet they didn't think that they'd ever meet a biological son of his.

Over the years, getting to know his son had been a treat though. From his days as a brat in diapers, to now being able to perform light duties on the ship. Everyone gets along well with him, he's never had a moment where it seemed like he was unwelcomed when it came to his place on the ship. Training him has also been fun for them, especially since he's a fairly fast learner when it comes to them showing him things. Granted they haven't taught him any advanced techniques such as haki, but he along with the other teachers agree that he'll probably be fast at learning that as well. They wouldn't be the least bit surprised if they found that he had haoshoku haki.

Coming out of his musings, he finished up what he was doing. Turning around he went back to where he left Naruto. As he was walking, he had a small feeling that Naruto caused some trouble for him. Shaking that feeling off, he noticed that he was nearing the clearing, yet he didn't see any blonde hair around.

'Guess that feeling I had was right after all. Somehow knew he was going to get into trouble' Thach thought to himself with a sigh. Given that he's still an energetic kid, it's not really a surprise to him that he can't sit still. He's always going back and forth on the boat, never sitting still for more than a couple of minutes at a time. The only time he seems to sit still is when he's eating. So it's not much of a surprise that Naruto went to go somewhere else.

Walking around to try to figure out where Naruto went, Thach was trying to recall what interested naruto the most when they were still together. As he caught sight of the waterfall, he remembered how Naruto's gaze would linger on it every time he would look at it. Walking in the direction of the waterfall, he saw that bird Naruto was entertaining earlier. As he got closer, he could see Naruto as he jumped into the water. Noticing he wasn't coming back up, he ran over and jumped in after him.

Flashback over

After he got saved by Thach, he started to cough to get the water out of his lungs. Luckily he wasn't down there long enough to pass out. Looking at Thach after he finished coughing out water, he said "Thank you for saving me, I don't know what I would've done if you hadn't shown up."

"I thought you were a pretty good swimmer, what happened?" Thach asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I am, that's the thing. I was swimming just fine before I took a break to eat some fruit" Naruto said, confused on why he couldn't swim anymore.

"Some fruit you say? You didn't by chance eat one that didn't look like a normal fruit, did you?" Thach asked Naruto

"Yeah, I did. It was the weirdest looking fruit I've ever seen in my life. It was also the worst tasting thing I've ever had in my life" Naruto said with a grimace, remembering how that weird looking fruit tasted.

'Hm, it sounds like Naruto ate a devil fruit. Definitely want to make sure before I tell Pops. The question is, how would I go about testing to see if he actually does have one?' Thach thought to himself. After not coming up with a solid answer on how to test it, he decided to take him to Pops.

"Alright Naruto, we're going to go and see your dad to see if we can figure out what caused you not being able to swim. I'm pretty sure I know why, but I want to make sure" Thach told Naruto, who nodded but clearly didn't wanna stop going around the island. Seeing his hesitation, Thach went to grab Naruto's hand. As he grabbed his hand, the last thing he saw was his skin bubbling before his upper body exploded.

"What?! What just happened?" Naruto asked frantically. 'All I did was touch him and he blew up! How does that make sense?! I need to find some way to fix him somehow.' He thought to himself freaked out about what just happened.

'Since I touched him and he exploded, I wonder if the reverse can happen' Naruto thought to himself as he neared Thach's body. Stretching out his hand, he put his hand on Thach's downed body. Thinking only about fixing Thach, he tried to make something work. After a couple of seconds, he noticed it was working. Happy about this outcome, he tried harder until he noticed Thach's body was fully reformed.

Waking up with a gasp, Thach was looking around frantically trying to make sense of what exactly just happened. He felt like he died when he touched Naruto's hand, yet here he is alive. One thing is certain though, whatever it was that exactly happened was painful and he definitely doesn't want it to happen to him again.

"Oh thank goodness you're back," Naruto said, catching Thach's attention. "I really thought I lost you there for a second."

"Yeah, it's definitely freaky what happened to me just now. Speaking of which, what exactly happened to me?" Thach asked Naruto

"Well when you went to grab my hand, it's like your skin started bubbling then you blew up. After seeing that happen, I was freaking out until I realized I somehow caused it. After somewhat calming down, I remembered how it happened when you touched my hand. Thinking the reverse could happen if I touched you again, I put my hand on you again with the only thought is my head being fixing you" Naruto explained somewhat confused on how he could do that in the first place.

"Well it looks like I was right. What you ate was a devil fruit. In return for granting power, you lose your ability to swim. That's why despite being a good swimmer, you sank to the bottom like a rock. Devil fruit users get weakened in the sea. Now that we know, let's go find your dad and explain this to him" Thach told Naruto, being somewhat cautious around him since he doesn't wanna be on the receiving end of his power again.

Nodding in reply to Thach, Naruto went ahead with him to find his dad. Along the way, he made sure to keep his hands in his pocket so he doesn't accidentally blow anything up again. Now that he's got a devil fruit power though, he hopes his dad allows him to start his haki training. As the son of Whitebeard, he doesn't want to be in his shadows all the time so he wants to make sure he can be as strong as he can be so people will start to look at him as his own person rather than only being known as the son of Whitebeard.

XXXXXXXX

As they arrived back on the ship to meet with his dad, Naruto couldn't help but feel ecstatic. He finally has an ability now, and from the looks of it, it seems like a very strong power. He hopes to one day relieve his dad of his captain status, and he knows he'll have to be strong to garner the kind of respect and loyalty that his dad has.

Clearing his mind of those previous thoughts, he went up to where his dad was currently at with Thach. He wanted to have his mind free of thoughts as he talked to his dad so he could take in all the possible information he might give him. Granted, unless he actually knew about the fruit he ate, he might not get much new information from him. Even if that ends up being the case, he wouldn't mind that much. It'd be sort of fun to learn about the fruit himself as he trains with it after all. As he stood in front of his dad, he glanced over to Thach who motioned him to go ahead.

"Hey pops, while Thach and I were on the island, I decided to go to the waterfall to swim. After swimming for a bit, I got out to eat some fruit that I saw before I went swimming. After eating some fruit, I noticed something behind the waterfall so I went to go see what it was. When I arrived there, I noticed there was another fruit there. But when I looked closer at it, I could see t was definitely the weirdest fruit I've ever seen, not to mention the taste. The taste was awful, easily the worst thing I've ever had." Naruto finished with a slight grimace, having to remember the taste of the fruit again.

After hearing about what happened to his son and about the 'weird' fruit he was describing, his eyes widened slightly. He didn't think his son would come across a devil fruit on his first trip off the boat. Depending on what kind of fruit it is, he can go ahead and start his training for haki. He was originally going to start it when he was 12, but now that he ate a devil fruit, he won't have won't have to wait another 2 years to start.

"A weird fruit you say? Do you remember how it looked?" Whitebeard asked his son, even though he already knew exactly what he ate. Looking at his son, he could see his face scrunched up, thinking hard trying to remember what exactly it looked like. Chuckling quietly to himself at his son's expression, he waited for a couple of more seconds before he could see his face brighten up in realization.

"Yeah, I remember what it looked like after thinking a bit. It was gray with the top of it being red. On one side of the fruit is spiky and had no real shape. While the other side had a smooth and kind of rounded, the opposite of the other half basically." Naruto told his father who adopted a thinking face trying to remember if he's heard of any fruits like that before.

'I don't think I've ever heard of a devil fruit with that kind of appearance. I wonder if he's accidentally used the power of it already' Whitebeard thought to himself before addressing his son again. "Well about the fruit you ate, it's a devil fruit. I'm sure since you were with Thach, he told you about the basics of it. There's 3 classes of devil fruits. There's the zoan type, the logia type, and the one I have which is the paramecia type. Have you figured out what kinda power you have?" He asked Naruto.

Chucking weakly at that question, which made Whitebeard raise his eyebrow at that before he answered. "Well… I think we figured my power out. When Thach grabbed my hand to bring me along to you, his skin started bubbling before he blew up" Naruto finished nervously

Surprised at that kind of power, he looked over to Thach who gave a small nod in return to his unasked question, he looked over Thach to see him like how he remembered before he got off the boat. Figuring he'll get some kind of answer, he asked "Well if he blew up, then how is he standing right beside you?"

Looking at his hand for a bit, he brought his gaze back up to his dad and answered "Well after that happened, I freaked out. After calming down a bit, I remembered that it happened after he touched my hand. Thinking there might be a way to reverse it, I placed my hand on him. The only thing going through my head at that moment was my desire to bring him back. After a little bit, I noticed that I brought him back."

"Going off what you said, that's quite the power you have. Being able to do something like that is definitely remarkable. That barrel over there, go and use your power on it" Whitebeard told Naruto as he pointed to the barrel he mentioned.

Going over the barrel, he placed his hand on it as he got there. After a couple of seconds, the barrel was destroyed. Looking over to his dad, he saw that he motioned him to go on to see if he can fix it like he did with Thach. Nodding to him, he put his hand back on the barrel for a couple of seconds while thinking to restore it, the barrel was fixed. Looking over to his dad, he saw that he had a big smile on his face.

"Well that definitely is quite the power you have. It seems that you have a paramecia like me. The paramecia is the most common out of the three I told you of. It allows its user to use its abilities and turns them into a superhuman. Looking at your fruit in action, I can tell it's strong. Maybe not as strong as mine, but I'm sure given the training you can come close if not match me in terms of power" He said with a smile on his face. Him having a strong ability like that definitely needs to be trained early so he can go ahead and bring out its potential. Granted, he'll need to figure out the limitation of the fruit.

"Yeah, now that I sort of know how to use it now I'm excited about it. I hope we can start training soon so I can eventually be as strong as you" Naruto told him with an excited smile on his face. He hopes after he feels comfortable with his training, his dad lets him go off on his own so he can get some real world experience on his own. Being with such a strong group like his dad's crew makes him think he won't really get the experience he wants. He wants to fight and grow without the safety of them around.

Laughing at how excited his son is, he answered "Yeah, we'll start your training soon. As my son, I want you to be strong. I just hope you keep that same excitement when I really start your training." He finished with a smirk. He knows how rough the training for haki can be, he just hopes his son keeps that same bravado throughout the training. Plus he needs to figure out if wearing gloves will make him unable to use his power. Accidentally using it on one of his other son's would just cause unnecessary panic.

Looking him straight in the eyes, he countered with a smirk of his own while saying "Oh don't worry. I'll be just fine, so bring it on!"

TIMESKIP-9 YEARS

After 9 years of training, he finally felt satisfied with the level of strength he has now. Standing now at 7 feet, his body has definitely changed over the years. His body being muscular, but nowhere near as muscular as his dad. You could still see his massive biceps and how defined his body is. His face looks like it was chiseled by stone with how sharp it is with there being no fat on it now. You can clearly see that his black shirt is straining against his muscles.

After learning he has all 3 forms of haki, his dad had him train in each form of haki. Conqueror's haki is probably the weakest he has out of the 3, but he doesn't mind all that much. Even though he thinks it's the weakest out of the 3, it'll still assert his will effectively over people who are weaker than him. His observation and armament haki are probably tied in terms of strength for him. He can do them both effectively, yet he still can't do any of the advanced techniques.

The reason for this is he's spent most of his time trying to master his power. After training it, he's finally confident he could take on most people in the world. His dad told him about how devil fruits have a second stage to them called an awakening, but he's not sure if he'll have one. He's also learned the limitations of his power. He has to be touching something or someone with his bare hands for it to work. After the incident with Thach when he first ate the fruit, he just decided to wear gloves all the time. The only time he'd take them off is to fight an enemy or bathe. The other limitation he learned is that if his opponent is using haki, and it's stronger than his, then his ability won't work to its fullest capabilities. He found this out by having a spar with his dad, Where his haki coated arm wasn't blown up upon being touched.

Currently he was sitting in a bar with Marco on some island he'd already forgotten the name of, he could feel someone's eyes on his back. As soon as they came in here after him and Marco, they'd been looking in their direction. Shrugging, he decided not to think about it. Marco being a commander in his dad's crew, a lot of people probably recognize him from his bounty poster. Spending most of the years training, he hasn't warranted anything to get a bounty yet much to his silent frustration. He's not even sure if anyone outside of his dad's crew knows he's the biological son of Whitebeard. Seeing that Marco was about to speak the turned to him.

"You know, it's a shame that Thach got killed by Teach, but I think Ace is obsessing over bringing him to justice a little too much. Pops doesn't wanna see his sons killing each other, and the route Ace is going, I wouldn't be surprised if he went off on his own to get to Teach" Marco said with a solemn expression on his face remembering how Thach died.

That's another thing that's happened over the years. It actually happened quite recently in fact. He had remembered talking to Thach the night before, he was telling him about a devil fruit he got. He remembers Thach telling him it would give him power over darkness if he ate it. Teach must have overheard them or recognized the fruit when he saw it. The next morning he woke up to learn that Thach had been killed and Teach along with the fruit were missing. It's a shame too, he liked Teach, he had grown close to him over the years. Not as close as he was to Thach or Marco mind you, but close nonetheless. Another thing that's happened over the years was they got a new member in their family in Portgas D Ace. He remembered when they docked at an island in the past, Ace kept on trying to fight his dad. His dad offered him a spot on his crew, and after some time, Ace finally joined. He was being stubborn at first, not wanting to get along with anyone but over time, he finally started to open up and warm up to the crew.

Turning his head to look at Marco, he replied "Yeah, I was close to Thach as you know. I want to see Teach brought to justice for what he's done too, I just don't want Ace to go off by himself to do it. If we came across him on our journeys, then Pops could be the one to handle him. I just don't want Ace to get captured or killed if he confronted Teach. Pops was telling me how strong the fruit is. Ace just needs to wait and see if we come across him on our journey" Naruto finished with a sigh.

"Yeah, hopefully he does do that. Ace strikes me as impulsive though, wouldn't surprise me if he did go off on his own." Marco told Naruto "If he gets captured somehow , it definitely wouldn't be good if the Navy were to somehow know about who his dad was. He'd get executed for sure" Marco finished in a whisper, not wanting anyone to overhear him.

When his dad told him and his closest commanders about who Ace's was, needless to say they were shocked. For him to be the son of his dad's old rival and legendary pirate Gol D. Roger is definitely something they can't let people know about. With Roger being the 'King of Pirates' and him starting the new age of pirates after him telling all who could hear to find the One Piece before getting executed, the Navy wants anyone related to Roger to be 'brought to justice'. Speaking to Ace himself though, he found out that he finds Whitebeard to be his actual father rather than Roger.

"I agree with you. If he were to be captured and his relation to Roger being brought to light, it wouldn't surprise me if the Navy were to make it some big spectacle" Naruto told Marco in a whisper, who nodded agreeing with him.

Smiling, Marco spoke "Well even if that were to happen, Pops would go through hell to get him back. It wouldn't surprise me if he went against the Navy entirely to get him.. He treats us all like his sons, so it's definitely something that would probably happen." Chuckling, Marco continued "Hell I'd hate to see what pops would do if you were captured. I mean with you being his only biological son, he'd probably wage war against the world to get you back." He finished while looking at Naruto who just rolled his eyes with a smile on his face.

Perking up at that last piece of information, the person that's been staring at Marco and Naruto started to study Naruto more closely. Sure enough, he could see the similarities. Blonde hair, blue eyes, tall, and an intimidating air around him. Getting up, he moved over to the two to make his presence known.

"Oi!" The man said getting Naruto's and Marco's attention. "What you just said about you being Whitebeard's son, is that true?" He asked looking at Naruto

Raising his eyebrow at the man, he replied "You heard right, I am his son. What's it to you?"

Scowling in return, the man replied "Your dad embarrassed me when I went after him in the past. Made me look bad in front of my comrades. Now I'm going to do the same thing to his son." He finished with a glare to Naruto

"I don't think anyone here even knows who you are, guy." Naruto said as he looked at him with a straight face. Some no name guy coming up to him and saying he'll embarrass him is laughable. Something Marco agreed with if his light snickers were anything to go by.

"I'm Captain Morgan. As a captain of the Navy, it's my job to bring you to justice, and I'll embarrass you too while I'm at it." The now named Morgan told Naruto. He remembers quite clearly how early in his career he tried to challenge Whitebeard. A couple moments after he charged him, he was on the ground with blood and bruises covering his body. That was easily the most embarrassing moment of his career to date.

Looking at Morgan, Naruto took the chance to study his features. He is a tall, muscular man with blonde hair. He has what seems like a metal jaw with the word 'seagull' etched into it. Looking down, he raised his eyebrow in curiosity when he noticed instead of a right hand, he had an axe there instead. Looking past him, he saw his coat to signify his captain rank at an empty table.

"Oh? You think you can embarrass me? That's laughable. You're welcome to try" Naruto told him while taking off his gloves. If this clown wants to challenge him, then he can. He'll use him as a message to the Navy. He looked over to Marco to see him have an amused smirk on his face, no doubt wanting to see how this plays out.

"You have some nerve brat. Let's see if you have that same spunk when I'm done with you" Morgan said as he squared up in front of Naruto

Swinging his arm at Naruto for a punch, he got ready for his fist to make an impact. After seeing him dodge his first punch, he swung his other fist only to have Naruto dodge that one as well. Clicking his tongue in annoyance, he got ready to swing another punch. Before he could do so, he felt Naruto's hand on his chest. He didn't even notice him get past his guard, being that fast is a scary thought. Looking down at the hand on his chest, he felt his skin seemingly bubble before blackness is the only thing he knew.

After making light work of the fool who challenged him, he looked over to Marco who looked curious about what he would do now. Motioning him over, he waited till he was by him before he addressed what he was doing.

"I think I'm just going to put him back together. I can use him as a messenger to the Navy. To let them know that I'm not one to be taken lightly. Plus with him overhearing about my dad, I guess people will finally know who exactly I am. I'm strong enough to not have to worry about most people out there. Plus with my name finally out, I can go ahead and start working on getting out of my dad's shadow" Naruto told Marco who nodded, understanding his reasoning. His name is going to get out anyways, so he might as well do it in a way that'll make people somewhat wary of him.

Looking at what used to be Morgan, he stuck his hand on his remains and reformed him. Sitting up quickly and letting a loud gasp out of his mouth, he started looking around quickly with wide eyes. Naruto watched as the man began patting his body with his actual hand, making sure that everything was still in place. When his eyes landed on Naruto, who was looking at him with a smirk, he shot to his feet.

"What happened?! I know for sure that I died just now and somehow I'm back. This doesn't make any sense." Morgan said frantically to Naruto who had a smirk on his face.

"Well that's easy to answer. I killed you with my devil fruit ability, but I brought you back using that same ability" Naruto told Morgan who had a confused look on his face.

"If you killed me already, then what purpose did you have to bring me back? I don't understand." Morgan replied back, shaking his head in confusion.

"Oh well I brought you back for two reasons really. The first reason was to show you exactly how easy it would be to take care of you. The second and more important reason is for you to go back and retell your encounter with me to your superiors. Now run along, I'm done with you" Naruto told him while putting his gloves back on with a deadly look in his eyes, daring him to do anything else.

Getting the message quickly, he ran to grab his coat before he ran out of the bar. As he ran out of the bar, he thought 'Screw going back to the Navy, it's too much for me to be on the Grand Line if there are monsters like that running around. He handled me as if I was a pest to him. I think I'll just go to the East Blue, there shouldn't be anyone like him there.' He could probably live comfortably there instead of here in the Grand Line, with these thoughts he quickly left, never seeing Naruto again.

Back inside with Naruto and Marco, they were about to head out to go back to the ship. Walking through the bar, a flash of light hit his eyes. Shrugging it off as nothing important, he stepped out of the bar with Marco beside him. As they made their way back, both were unaware that the flash of light that hit Naruto's eyes actually came from someone from the Navy who's job is to update pictures for existing bounties and take the picture and gather the information on a new bounty.

A week later, Naruto awoke to quite the commotion coming from the deck. Slowly getting out of bed, he went to get his clothes on to check out what all the noise is about. After training harder than usual last night, his body was feeling a little sore. Stepping out of his cabin, he saw a lot of people gathered by the side of the boat looking down. Making his way over to see what exactly is going on, he saw Ace in a small boat beside the Moby Dick.

Looking around him, he spotted Marco so he decided to go to him to see what exactly is going on. Walking up to Marco, he asked "Hey Marco, what exactly is going on here"

Marco turning to him answered "It's as we feared, Ace is going off on his own to find Teach. We've tried talking him out of it, but he won't listen to anyone, not even pops." He finished with a sigh while shaking his head. Looking over at Naruto, he saw that his eyes were widened due to this new information.

Looking down at Ace he could see the determination present in his eyes. Figuring he won't change his mind if his dad couldn't do it, he accepted that Ace was going to leave to go to find Teach and get revenge on him for what he did to Thach.

"Hey Ace!" Naruto yelled, getting his attention. "I know there's nothing I can say that'll make you change your mind. So instead I'll just say this, make sure you're safe out there. If you get into any trouble, then ring my personal snail transponder. I know you have the details to it. I know how stubborn you can be so if you get into a pinch, be sure to call me. Now go and get that bastard" Naruto finished with a smile. Looking at Ace, he saw that he had a smile on his face and nodded back.

Looking back at Naruto he yelled "Don't worry! I'll make sure to get him. If it looks like I'm about to get in over my head, I'll make sure to give you a ring. After I'm done dealing with him, I'll be sure to come right back." He finished with a smile. While he's hunting for that scum Teach, he may come across his little brother Luffy. He hasn't seen him in awhile so it'd be nice to see him again. "Well everyone, I'm off. I'll see you guys soon hopefully" he said as he put his hand in the air as he sailed away, saying bye to everyone.

Walking back from the side of the ship, Naruto noticed his dad had a sad expression in his eyes. He completely understands why he's sad about this whole outcome. One of his sons killed another to steal a fruit from him then fled. Breaking the one rule you should never break while a part of his crew. If that wasn't bad though, another one of his sons went to go chase after Teach. Risking him getting captured or even worse.

Walking up to his dad, he said "It's okay Pops, Ace is strong. Even if he does land into trouble, he told me he'd ring me so I could go help him. If I'm there with him, I'll make sure nothing bad happens to him." Looking at his dad's eyes after hearing that, he could see his eyes lit back up and his shoulders sagged somewhat in relief.

Hearing the squaw of a bird above him, he looked up to see it was a news bird. Hearing something drop, he looked and saw his dad pickup the newspaper and the new bounties. Hearing his dad laugh, he raised an eyebrow in curiosity before his dad passed what he was looking at to him.

Grabbing the paper from him he read it outloud "Wanted: Dead or Alive. Naruto Newgate. Bounty 300,000,000 beri?!" He exclaimed at that last part. This is his first bounty so he didn't think it'd be that high as his first one. Looking at the picture though, it was a picture of him back in that bar a week ago. He was looking in the direction of the camera while adjusting one of his gloves in the picture. Thinking a little about it does make sense why his bounty is so high for the first time. With him being the son of the strongest man in the world plus his abilities, it makes sense.

"Well you got your first bounty, I don't even think mine was that high for my first one." Whitebeard said with a small smile on his face before he continued "I also know how you want to go on your own for a while to make a name for yourself. Since you never became an official crew member, that's fine. Just make sure to stay outta too much trouble and stay safe. Also if you're out doing something and you hear any word from Ace needing help, make sure you go to him. That's if he isn't too stubborn to ask for help. I'll be sure to keep in contact with you." Whitebeard finished with a soft smile looking at his actual son. Someone who's made him proud over the years. He's sure he'll make a big name for himself, and when the time comes and he has to retire, he's sure he can leave it in safe hands with Naruto.

"Yeah, I'll make sure to help if he asks. Also thank you for everything you've done for me over the years. I'll be sure to keep safe while making a name for myself" Naruto told his dad with a slight tear in his eyes. Turning away from him, he missed the small tear in his dad's eye as well. "Well Pops, I'll be going to my cabin now to gather my things. I'll be sure to come back whenever you need me or when I'm done with my journey" He said while walking off to go to his cabin. While he'll miss his dad, he can't wait to start a journey for himself to see the world. He just knows he'll meet some great people, potential allies, and make a name for himself.

Chapter end

Well I hope you guys liked the 1st chapter of this new story I have here. Like I said, I'm a new writer so bear with me if you see a mistake. I'll be sure to get better over time.

As for his devil fruit, I put the limitations there so he wouldn't just go around one shotting everything.

As for why he's so big, he's the son of Whitebeard, I mean come on. Of course he'd be big like that. I just didn't wanna make him freakishly big so I just made him 7 feet.

If you have any questions or anything feel free to leave a review or just PM me.

If you wanna join the server I'm in with a couple of other writers, go ahead. Just leave any weird crap at the door. We have a good time in there, talking about random things and ideas for fics we may have. Here's the link: jvvZRaWsaM
