Wealth, Fame, and Power! W. D. Gaster, The King of The Pirates, had all those and the rest of what the world had to offer! Through many battles and trials, he had reached the pinnacle of the world's virtues and had nothing left but an illness that plagued him.

He brought himself in and was held at a worldwide public execution. Before he was executed, a man from the crowd asked:

"Where did you hide all your treasure?!"

To which the King of Pirates smiled and said:

"You want my treasure? You can have it! I left the most important treasure in the world on an island! Go and find it! 'For the next pirate that finds the UnderPiece, will be claimed the new King of The Pirates!"

Those were his final words before he was executed. He smiled to his death.

With those words, the world was flipped upside down as he created The Golden Pirate Era! People and already existing pirates from around the works started to sail the seas in search of the treasure that W. D. Gaster claimed to be-

The UnderPiece!

It had been Twenty Years since, and people have yet to find the treasure he was talking about. Except for one girl, who is now going to change the world by storm for the sake of her people.

This is the story of Muffet D. Baker and her way to becoming Queen of the Pirates!

She sat outside the operation room, fingers interlocked with her own. She rested her chin on the platform of her fingers to think.

It was her fault.

Undyne peered through the window that the operation room had.

After the pirate assault, she decided to steer off course and dock at the nearest island to look for medical help.

Everyone on her ship questioned her leadership, why would she take them off course for the medical help of one soldier?

She never had done that when it was just one of them, more or less when multiple people were injured. Undyne would normally tell them to be a man and hold in their pain until they arrived at the destination HQ told them to be positioned at.

It got them even more unsettled when Undyne spent hours to days straight waiting in the hospital, right outside the operation room.

The one that housed Monster Kid.

Why would she jeopardize the expedition because of one injured newbie soldier who was only ever good for the stock count? A kid who never got to engage in action a day in his life and is frankly too young to even be there.

And why does she care so much when she normally doesn't?!

The men on her ship tried to wrap their heads around that idea. They all sat together during what normally would be their lunch break, but Undyne didn't necessarily give them a schedule once they arrived on the island.

They landed on a tropical island that normally catered to a lot of pirates, like a vacation resort. Undyne knew this, so at least the navy men had something to do while they were at their stay there.

"Thanks to that runt, we finally have a few days off, feels like years since we got one!"

Said one of the marine soldiers as he took a bite out of his sandwich. The other marine soldiers looked at him strangely.

"I mean yeah...but you shouldn't say stuff like that. We all dislike that kid as much as the next guy, but it's a bit pretentious to make that claim."

Another marine soldier took a bite out of his sandwich.

"Ah-! Whatever! The kid doesn't even deserve to be on the ship...why did the captain recruit him in the first place?!"

Everyone at the table started staring off to think, none could come up with a substantial answer.

"I mean, it couldn't be that he paid her, the kid doesn't have the vibe or respectfulness that gives off that he is rich. He couldn't have proved himself in battle, he has no arms! And frankly, none of us had managed to sweet-talk the boss so it can't be that either."

He takes a bit out of his sandwich, everyone else laughs sheepishly and scratches the back of their heads at his last remark.

Truth was, they all to some extent tried hitting on Undyne at one point during their time on her ship. None of them were successful, which deep down, made them happy because as much as they liked her, they feared her a lot more.

They all continued eating in silence, both because they were admiring how good the food was and thinking about an answer as to why. What makes the kid so special to her.

The silence was broken when two of the soldiers engaged in banter, making the other members laugh. Eventually, the topic of Monster kid got brought up again.

"Hey- you think Monster Kid would get a 'kick' out of this-!"

They all erupted into laughter again.

"...Very Funny..."

Everyone stopped laughing after hearing that one comment. They knew what voice that was. With the amount of anxiety, fear, and stress, they seem to age out of sheer pressure and shock.

They shakily avert their heads to the voice.

They all saw her, Undyne, with a tray of food made from the chef of the ship. She had returned from the hospital after days. They could tell she hadn't slept that whole time and this was her first time eating.

Which meant one of two things.

One! She most likely had to be kicked out of the hospital for loitering. Which being told what to do, makes her extremely pissed off.

Two! She is sleep-deprived and hungry...two things a woman, especially of Undyne's caliber, shouldn't be. So that added to her anger factor.

And there she was, standing next to the men laughing in her face about the decisions she chose to make.

They all gulped at her unamused face.

However, she sat down in between all of them. There was no space for her to begin with, but the men knew better and shuffled out of the way to make some space for her.

Undyne was slim, which made most enemies think that she was a fragile being. When in reality, she casually suplexes boulders for fun. She trains more muscle memory than actually muscle building.

Knowing that the men didn't have to move down too much.

She sat down and started staring at her food. Everyone was essentially humbled enough not to bring up a touchy subject. Although they were still ready to run in case she was making them lower their guard so that she can suplex all of them through the floorboards of the ship.

She did that a lot to pass the time, more than they liked.

Undyne felt their fleeing energy.

"...No. I'm not going to hurt you guys. I don't blame you guys for thinking like that. Taking us off course was a blunder on my part, my leadership crumbled making this decision, I deserve to be berated."

Everyone stood there in silence blinking and rubbing their eyes.

Did she just...apologize?

Never once in all their years of working with and under her, had she either apologized or blamed herself. She was too prideful for that, for a reason they can't argue with either.

But here she was doing both simultaneously.

On top of that, she gave them respect in a professional way. Which too, was a thing she never did. Not that she was mean to her shipmates, but she never gave them their shining moments or gave them any recognition. They honestly felt like forgotten side characters on her ship.

They felt something in their hearts, all of them.

It was guilt.

They all eased up.

"No we get it, the kid means a lot to you. If the same situation happened to me and my son, I would've made the same decision."

They all nodded at their fellow marine man's statement.

Undyne chuckles.

"That damn kid...he had the freaking audacity...after he was struck he-"

Undyne hiccups and tears start forming in her eyes, she had not tried to keep them hidden from her men anymore. She had broken a short while ago

The men felt sorry for her, but didn't interrupt her, they felt saying anything now would make it worse.

Undyne scraped the after-blast gunpowder from her Marine Captain uniform. Looking at Monster Kid still in the pool of his blood.

She had riddled the ship and the men within the ship with her energy spears. Nothing was left of that ship after she was done.

She then slowly walked over to his body.

Scared.

She was scared. For once in her life she was scared.

Not for what his body would turn out to be, but what he would say.

She stood over his body, like how the Grim Reaper looks over an almost dying patient.

She prepared for the worse.

As she thought that, Monster Kid started moving a little, he was rolling around trying to stand up. Which is was hard for him since he had no arms.

Undyne was too horrified at the sight to help him.

Monster Kid manages to flip his body over. Looking at Undyne with bloodshot eyes.

She almost puked at the sight of it, his tail was bent the wrong way, so were his legs. From his hips down were essentially charred. Part of his hip was busted open and still bleeding out.

If this sight was horrific to see, she would be madly impressed that he's still alive.

Monster Kid looked at Undyne weakly, she felt the judgment. She knew she should've just kept him down there. Why was she trying to impress him, he already found her cool. Why did she feel the need to get him caught in a line of fire? A fire that she could've easily blocked and redirected if she wasn't gloating.

Was she just trying to impress herself...?

Monster Kid breathes weakly while trying to look her dead in the eye.

Undyne tries to look away but she can't.

"...Undyne...that was so...cool...can we do it again... sometimes..."

Undyne broke.

She started bursting into tears, she dropped to her knees and start hugging his body that would maybe be his corpse, she didn't know.

"Of course newbie..." she sniffled, "We'll do it again...sometime-" she couldn't finish the word. She choked on her words, not sure if there would be some time.

"Yeah...you're so...cool..."

Undyne felt his soul leave his body. Her outfit was stained in his blood. She still kept hugging him. Crying on top of his little spikey head.

She stood there for minutes straight, the marine men trying to take him away from her, she tried attacking anyone who tried it.

When they told her that they'd give him to the ship's doctor, she reluctantly gave him up.

"...h-he dared to say that I was cool."

Undyne was talking fluently, despite waterfalls of tears was streaming down her eye.

"How can someone who completely ruined his life, got him hurt off of something that was my fault and also something I could've prevented, somehow is a shit leader be cool!"

She punches the ship and part of the ship dips slightly underwater.

The men tried to consult her.

"No no ma'am! You're a great leader-!"

They all berated her with compliments that either didn't make sense or she could tell were just them trying to make her feel better.

However, it's the thought that counts, Undyne was more of a sentimental girl at heart. She cracked a grin, which motivated her men to give her more helpful advice, compliments, tips, encouraging words.

She noticed that the more they kept going, the more of the truth and heart shined through them. She began to think more rationally.

She got to finally notice something about their men, is that they too have a set bar of appreciation and praise to herself. Granted, none of their fanboying compared to how Monster Kid praised her, but it was something. She realized then that her men were not just people on her ship.

But men on her ship...and in her heart.

She wiped off the last of her tear and ate the entire tray. The men cheered her on. She likes the hype, this honest hype. She looked at her men, seeing the light in their faces. Not only was her stomach filled. But she was filled...

With Determination!

She stood up, a gleam in her eye. She flexes, the men cheer her on.

She needs something to suplex!

She sees a stray barrel floating on the shoreline.

She points at it.

"Apprehend that barrel!"

They all knew what that meant, they fished out the barrel from the water and carried it back to the ship. It was surprisingly heavy.

Undyne bearhugged it, she too noticed that it was heavy for a barrel to have been floating. She examined the barrel from the hole in the top. Then-

"GOODMORNING DEARIES~! I AM HERE!"

Undyne got knocked back by the person that erupted from the barrel and smacked her back against the mast of the ship.

Everyone's jaws dropped in shock and fear. Not only did they not imagine someone to be in the barrel, but for that someone to hurt Undyne, the Marine Captain of the East Blue, Undyne the Undying. They knew havoc would follow afterward.

The person in the barrel sprung into the air and landed on the deck of the ship in a crouched position.

They got to see more of this person...which they now know from focusing on that person...that it's a she!

The woman stands up and starts stretching as if she was cramped, which they assumed so because she was in that barrel.

What they didn't expect was for her to stretch...six of her arms?!

They all got scared of her from that alone. Then the woman walked out into broad daylight.

From the closer examination, they got a clearer picture of her.

She had light purple skin, five black spider eyes, two on each side of her head, and one vertically on her forehead in between the two sets. The bottom set of eyes seemed to be her main set.

She had a thin body frame, a super lean fit. Her hair was short wavy and up to her shoulders. At the part where her hair ends, it bunches up in cute curves and balls like clouds. She was decently small, no higher than five-foot. She had six arms, her fingers were sharp at the ends.

She was wearing a black tank top, nothing underneath. They were confused, because she had a bust, a relatively small one, but she had something. Maybe she didn't care?

She also wore sweatpants that were just one shade darker than her skin. She wore a black slip-on. Around her neck was a necklace that had an onyx in the middle shaped like a spider. Same for her earrings.

She also had a rope around her neck that seemed to be connected to something on the back of her head.

She uses her bottom set of arms to stretch out her hips and waist. Her middle set of arms doing cross stretches. Her top left arm was reaching for what seemed to be a hat, a cowboy hat?!

The cowboy was a grayish black with tassels that seem to resemble spider legs.

Her top right hand was used to laugh into it in a cute giggle. A polite little laugh.

"W-who are you?!"

The woman doesn't say anything as she continues to stretch.

Undyne gets off from the mast, stretching her back. That little knockback woke her up all the way. She looks at the woman who blew her away and gets both excited and angry.

The woman stops stretching.

"Oh? My name dearie~? Well, it's-"

Undyne scores her on her left cheek. The shockwave from that punch moves everything around it back a couple of feet.

Everyone was shocked...and so was Undyne.

Because the woman just stood there, with her cheek being squished by Undyne's fist, but remained there unphased.

"That won't work dearie~" Undyne backs up by doing a couple of recovery backflips.

This catches the woman's attention, she looks at Undyne with all 5 of her eyes.

"I'm mostly immune to all physical damage, so you're going to have to try a lot harder than that. Fuhuhuhu~"

Not only did those words piss her off, but she completely stole her laugh too. She wasn't going the let that slide.

"So, you're a Devil Fruit holder?"

The lady looks at Undyne with a look that tells her yes.

"I ate the Gum-Gum Fruit! I'm a rubber person! I can stretch my body as if it were rubber and that also makes me immune to blunt attacks."

One of the soldiers looks confused. He looks over to his fellow soldier.

"I'm still confused about the whole Devil Fruit thing. What are they?"

His teammate fills him in.

"Devil Fruits are these randomly growing fruits all around the world. One bite from it grants the user an ability from the sea devil itself! However, if you eat more than two, you die on the spot, and if you are super weak against seawater. One-touch seawater, and you'll drown and lose your powers. There is only one of each kind of Devil Fruit. So as long as those two stay alive, no one else can get those abilities."

The man nods with all this new information.

Another teammate speaks up.

"If I'm correct there 4 types of devil fruits. Zoan, allows the user to become an animal hybrid, allowing the user to have the naturalistic talents and enhanced abilities of that animal. Paramecia, Undyne, and that woman are both Paramecia Devil Fruit holders, their fruit allows them to have an ability that they can either shoot or use from their body." He tries to remember more.

A little kid speaks up.

"There are Logias-" When the little kid speaks, the other men look in shock and yelp.

It's Monster Kid, he made a full recovery but seems to be still weary from the operation.

"Kid you're not supposed to be here, at least now! You might get hurt, Undyne is fighting a true monster right now!"

Monster Kid looks up at the deck of the ship.

His eyes gleamed with hope.

The men try convincing him to leave but Monster Kid refuses to.

They all sigh in defeat, but if this kid means a lot to Undyne, and they know that they are out of their league trying to participate in the fight. They owe it to her this much to shield Monster Kid from harm.

The original soldier who asked the question asked Monster Kid quietly,

"Uh...what were the other types?"

"Oh-! There are logias! They allow the user to become an aspect of nature itself, having an intangible body making them hard to defeat, for example, someone can be flame itself! But those devil fruits are super duper rare! Then there are Gencios, which give the user a powerful passive ability. It's not an ability that they can activate or become, but it's on constant activation!"

The man looks enlightened, the other men too. They look at Monster Kid.

"Hey kid..um..what else do you know?"

Monster's Kids' eyes glow up.

Undyne power marches towards the woman.

"I want to know the name of my opponent before I massacre them. So! What is it?!"

The woman tilts down her cowboy hat.

"Muffet D. Baker!" She grows a wide toothy smile.

"THE FUTURE PIRATE QUEEN!"
