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!

It had been several weeks since the goodbye to MewMew and the whole Emerald Peninsula as a whole. It had officially hit winter, it was currently snowing on the Grand Line, however, Hera had warned them hours before.

With her super sensitive skin, they didn't have to worry about the harshness of the Grand Line's anomalous and unpredictable sea.

The events of what happened on that island had changed them entirely, they were way stronger than before, but, seeing the dark truth of what lies ahead for them, made them a bit anxious.

All of the future threats seemed to be so far ahead in power that they seemed unreachable. Muffet knew that too.

It was 3:00 in the afternoon, Susie was taking a nap on the deck, her back leaning against the railing. She had a wooly purple and pink coat and yellow mittens.

Undyne was having a snowball fight with Hera. She wanted to show more of her mother's side, she had been mainly fostering it to Ralsei, although Ralsei didn't mind it.

Undyne had a red beanie and a dark blue wool jacket.

Hera had a light blue one.

Ralsei wore her regular dark green hat and cloak, her thick set of black fur made up for the temperature. To her, it was always warm.

Muffet wore a purple and black wooly jacket with dark purple mittens. She was just sitting on the figurehead like always, looking forward to the new lands and islands they were set out to discover.

The spider girl couldn't help but think about Marigold, she pets Fuhu who was nuzzling in her lap.

I hope you're alright, that Gaia lady was extremely tough...

She shook her head at that thought and head towards the mast from the port. Fuhu followed her along the way.

Everyone noticed her.

"Hey, Muffet! Show us again! Please!"

Susie even batted an eye at her captain. They loved seeing her captain do her new little transformation. They had been pestering her about it. Even engaging spars with it on.

Muffet sighed.

"Guys I appreciate your concern, but I've shown you it countless times already."

Hera came up to her and tugged at the bottom of her coat.

"Ms. Muffet...I wanna see it please..."

Hera said in a slow and adorable voice.

How can she say no to that?

Muffet got down in a crouched position with her knees bent outwards. Placing her left set of hands-on her left quad, while placing all of her right set of hands onto the teal and orange grass. She balled her right set into a fist against the ground and pushed onto it.

This made her entire arm pump blood into herself, making her blood circulation faster. Her skin started to glow a bright purple, steam emitting off her body, melting the nearby snow. Her eyes gleamed purple too.

Everyone watched in awe again, as their captain's transformation still looked mildly cool to them. Muffet immediately turned it off.

Undyne chortled.

"We need a power like that if we are going to last in the Grand Line!"

She gave her captain a hearty slap on the back. Muffet looked at Undyne with confused eyes.

In reality, with her unlocking Armament Haki, she was able to extremely harm Muffet. That Haki completely ignored her Devil Fruit effect, on top of that, once she truly learned how to sustain her Determination and found a better use for her Kindness, she would definitely be stronger than her captain, even against her new form.

Muffet secretly knew that, and although she was all for the increasing strength in her crew, she didn't like to be weaker than someone on her team. She would somehow want to be continuously stronger than her crew, she had to pump up her game.

She would have to find a different way to exploit her Devil Fruit.

Susie was even catching up to them, on top of her having almost complete mastery of her Justice, she now possessed an incredibly strong Devil Fruit, and even Observation Haki.

They had also learned that Hera was a powerhouse of her own. Her strength was above human, but nothing near the strength of Susie, Undyne, and Muffet. However, she was without a doubt, the fastest one on the crew. Able to move, when actually trying, faster than the eye could blink.

Her superpower was also tricky to handle, whenever they would hit her with a weapon, she would essentially become a humanoid version of the weapon, even capable of mimicking its properties.

Ralsei had also been practicing her Yo-yo techniques and trying to maintain her Armament Haki. Her Yo-yo strikes felt like a whole pile of anvils were being dropped on you after terminal velocity.

The crew stopped being the crew that was barely able to get by on islands. Muffet had found a whole new confidence in her team of five.

Everyone was just conversing about the moments on The Emerald Peninsula, just from their perspectives. The more they revealed their perspective, the more they gave MewMew props for everything she did. They all hoped her travels were safe.

While they were talking about Nidus, who was talking and preaching about this woman named Lillian, Susie began to brainstorm. Her being the archeologist meant that she had to keep notes and memory on everything she read, and she would have to read immensely and passionately.

"I think I've heard of this Lillian chick before...I believe she is a woman on Vortanya's crew."

Everyone groaned.

"Wait, you all had experiences with Vortanya?!"

Susie sounded a bit more excited than she should.

Ralsei spoke for the other three.

"We nearly had a heart attack, but surprisingly she knew Muffet and Undyne because of their lineage."

Muffet and Undyne gave a proud nod.

Hera spoke up.

"She was the woman that helped design my ancient partner Gaia."

Everyone took note of that too. There was something sinister and secret about Vortanya that they weren't seeing. Or atleast, had no evidence of.

They all heard the cawing of a bird over their heads, they looked up in the misty afternoon sky and saw a newspaper descend onto them.

This time, Undyne caught it.

"Let's see-!"

Undyne opened the newspaper and eight wanted posters came out. Undyne quickly picked those back up and began to read them off. They were hoping their bounties were raised.

They all didn't care about how much attention from bounty hunters or marines that they'd attract.

There sorta was a bragging rights game in the ship, Muffet was winning with Hera as a close second.

"Ancient weapon, Gaia, awakened with the ties tracing back to the Soul Parlour Pirates! Fighting the beast was the third in command of the Revolutionary Army, Mariposa Marigold! The fight ended in a...draw?!"

Everyone was shaken by that news, what did that mean for them?

Was Gaia still in the East Blue or did she somehow snake her way into the Grand Line? Was she after them?

These were things they chose to ignore and let Undyne finish.

"A giant man-made passage was made through the Grand Line along with the East Blue, a never before done feat in the history of the world! Done by Muffet D. Baker, Captain of the Soul Parlour Pirates!"

Muffet smugly rubbed her knuckles against her chest, everyone still remembered that part of that day, she had buzz sawed herself through the Grand Line vertically just for a petty finisher move.

"Admiral...Red Von Suitel? Has ushered a more thorough hunt for the Soul Parlour Crew!"

Muffet choked on her spit when she said that name.

Red?! Red from the tavern?! Was she really an Admiral before her maternity leave?!

Muffet kept that inner turmoil to herself.

Ralsei and Undyne felt Muffet tense up, that was a talk for the dinner table.

"The Emerald Peninsula, a once-rare phenomenon in the world, now reduced to complete rubble and anarchy...On other news-! Frisk D. Reemurr and GoldenBeard, have clashed and met along the West Blue's Red Line, locals say the battle made the sky split!"

Everyone was at peak curiosity for that bit of information. What exactly did they need to speak about?

"Dark Queen Susie...retires as a pirate along the Archipelago, however, still retains her active bounty of 8, 767, 000, 000 dollars!"

Everyone got utterly shocked at that bounty price, and also the name of the person. It Seemed Susie was an important name.

"Jesus! What did she do?!"

Undyne just shrugged.

"She was the first mate and right-hand person to W. D. Gaster."

Everyone sorta accepted the reason why, but still wanted to know what got her that high of a bounty.

"The Jester Devil now resides on the Island of Giants, the World Government does not know whether to make heads or tails of the situation. Fleet Admiral Grillby claims he wants to initiate a Buster Call of the Jester Devil!"

Everyone grew wide-eyed at the bits of saucier news that were being revealed.

The Jester Demon from the Legend of Deltarune was still running amok, causing chaos wherever he went. Muffet seemed all too infatuated with this being. According to Ralsei, the Jester Devil could beat Gaia and Marigold simultaneously with only slight difficulty.

This made her even more excited to see the guy.

Undyne cleared her throat.

"Now this is the fun part! The Bounties!"

As she brought the newspaper higher, two more bounties fell out of place. She gathered those too.

She shuffled the bounties in her hand and read the first one, everyone gathered, including Fuhu, waiting to see who has the highest bounty now out of the remaining five of them.

"For the association of the Soul Parlour and Mad Mew alliance, wreckage upon the Emerald Peninsula and help the defeat of Marshall Bronzio, pending Warlord, Witch Doctor - Ralsei Lightner, Wanted Dead or Alive, for 60, 000, 000!"

Everyone clapped for Ralsei, this was a huge leap.

Ralsei actually blushed in disbelief. She didn't believe she could make an over 40,000,000 dollar jump of importance.

"Known reader of Poneglyphs, great demolisher of The Emerald Peninsula, Second commander of The Soul Parlour Pirates. Brutal Queen - Susie D. Barnabie, Wanted Dead or Alive, for- 100 Million?!"

Everyone looked at Susie in surprise, not for the massive starting bounty, but because she had 'D' as her middle name. They needed to have a talk with her about that.

"'Jevil The Chaos Clown, Wanted Dead, for-"

Undyne choked on her spit.

"4, 850, 000, 000!"

Everyone's mouths gaped open, this Deltarune Demon was indeed a force not to be reckoned with.

Muffet snatched the wanted poster and eyed the man in the middle of the page...she tucked the poster into her jacket.

Everyone eyed her strangely...

Undyne gulped.

"Uh, Oh-! Mad. D. MewMew, for-?! ABANDONED POSITION OF WARLORD?!"

"WHAT?!"

Everyone was shocked at that news, why would she do that?!

"Her new active bounty is...850, 000, 000!"

Everyone was still flabbergasted by the amount of money she was worth and why she abandoned her title.

"Nidus Domes...250,000,000..."

Everyone just nodded.

"Oh! The Newly awakened Weapons, Hera, and Gaia now have bounties...They go for 750,000,000 each!"

Hera proudly nodded, so far, hers was the highest bounty in the crew.

"And now, Mariposa Marigold...1,000,000,000!"

Everyone clapped for her, they owed her atleast that.

"For the betrayal of the World Government, the destruction of a few Navy Warships and a Marine Captain, for the great assist on the defeat of Marshall Bronzio, pending Warlord, destroyed the Emerald Peninsula, First commander of the Soul Parlour Pirates, and daughter of Morial the Immortal... Punisher - Undyne Marie Undying...Wanted Dead or Alive...136,000,000 dollars!"

Everyone cheered for Undyne, that was a major leap in bounty.

"Finally...Our Captain...whose achievements shall go, unspeakable~"

Everyone was buttering Muffet up.

"Our Captain's new bounty is..."

Undyne kept staring at the page as if there was a typo.

"Uh, Muff...your bounty went down."

Muffet immediately grasped the bounty paper, everyone was curious too.

.

.

"Um Muffet, why does your bounty only say 'N/A'?"

Muffet cringed onto the wanted poster, why would her bounty go down? It should be going up if anything, way up!

Undyne read the newspaper again, and her eyes bubbled. She seemed...happy?

"G-guys?! Gwehehe! Look!"

Undyne turned around the newspaper, everyone couldn't read the small text so they looked back at her for confirmation.

"Pfft-! Muffet's Bounty got froze!"

Everyone gasped, Muffet looked the most flabbergasted.

"Why would they freeze her bounty Mama?"

Undyne still shook the paper happily.

"Spit it out Undyne, why is her bounty frozen, don't make me bop ya!"

Susie exclaimed.

Undyne slowly showed Ralsei the paper and pointed her finger at the part she wanted to read.

Ralsei adjusted her glasses.

"Because of the needing to fill the slot of Warlord...Mad D. MewMew ushered a 'confirmed' recommendation and validation of-"

Ralsei jumped to her feet in an exciting fright.

"MUFFET D. BAKER FILLING THE SLOT OF THE SEVENTH WARLORD?!"

"WHAAAAAAAAATT!"

Everyone backed away from Muffet as if she had explosives strapped to her chest. Though they didn't do it because they were afraid, it was because they were so filled with sudden shock they had to express it through movement.

Muffet kept reading the newspaper.

"Muffet D. Baker! The Seventh Warlord!"

She could get used to that title. Although, she knew that she wasn't strong enough to become a Warlord...was she?

"'M'! This is huge!"

Undyne caught her in a headlock and noogied her. Muffet laughed cheerfully, still wondering...what does she do from this point?

"We have immunity from the World Government!"

Susie, Ralsei, and Hera, who didn't know fully what that meant, held hands and danced in a circle.

Fuhu jumped on top of Undyne's unruly luscious and fluffy set of crimson hair. She had gotten used to that.

She was the only one who didn't celebrate that much.

Muffet was still cramming the newspaper.

Undyne sat next to her.

"So...kinda bites for my uh, goal...what do you think of this change?"

Muffet had thought about that. She would be removed from being a Warlord if Undyne went around attacking the marines at any opportunity she had. Her ambition was to defeat all the Admirals.

"I...don't know dearie~...I feel like something is off. I'm not entirely on the boat about being a Warlord, frankly, I prefer I don't...but I don't think they'll take no for an answer."

Undyne nodded.

They sat there in more silence.

"You know the purpose that Warlords serve, right?"

Muffet gave a weak nod, which Undyne knew meant that she didn't entirely know.

Some part of Undyne was glad she was a Navy Captain for as long as she did, she had all this knowledge that really seemed to finally be useful to her.

"Well, Warlord's main duty, above all else, is to essentially stop other pirates at certain checkpoints...you think you can handle that?"

Muffet shook her head, her first mate gave her a raised brow.

"I'm conflicted right now dearie~...I also have to look out for Hera. If we have Marines after us, she'll eventually be forced to fight, and if we do, Mariposa will come and take her away...On the other hand, if I decide to stay as Warlord, that'll hinder our progress as a crew. Either way, we lose...I'm asking for advice."

Undyne stood up with Muffet. Susie seemed to notice and wanted to join their conversation, but Undyne gave her a quick eye. Susie knew what that eye meant, so she went back to Ralsei, giving the fish lady a nod of agreement.

They walked up to the Parlour at the port of the ship and perched themselves at the railing behind it. They looked off into the ever-spanning blue ocean.

"By 'hinder our progress as a crew', you mean it'll stop my dreams...don't you?"

Muffet gave a heavy sigh that meant that Undyne was right.

She looked at her first commander.

"I just...you mean a lot to me Undyne. Our first encounter, our first fight, you were my first true friend on these seas, my first mate. As a Captain, your position speaks volumes to me. I trust you the most out of everyone, we have grown to be best friends over the course of months. We've been through quite a lot together...The last thing I want to do is prevent you from living your dreams...as a Captain, on a ship named 'The Field of Hopes and Dreams'...I wouldn't live with myself if I did..."

Muffet hung her head in shame.

Undyne had to soak all those words in, her captain was rarely open like this. This was the most she revealed too.

She wasn't aware that Muffet actually thought about their bond that much.

"Listen 'M', I knew what I signed up for when I accepted your offer to join your crew...I'm an idiot, but not a fool. I'd stick by any decision you make...Honestly, I rather we all be together and struggle together than stand the thought of losing someone."

Undyne patted her back, looking back to Hera. She seemed to happy and delighted being a part of their ship.

Muffet took another deep sigh.

"You're right dearie~...Hopefully, I won't be in the position of Warlord for too long. I still prefer I shouldn't, but I'll bear with the title."

Undyne nodded and began to walk away, she was stopped by a stretched hand to the shoulder.

"Hey, Undyne dearie~...You're a great mother...runs in the family I presume, huehuehue~"

Undyne's heart got warmer after hearing that. She looked back a Hera, who was just playing with Ralsei's thick fur.

Hera The Undying...like the ring to it!
