Chapter 1: The Sinking Island
When the king of the pirates, Gol D. Roger was executed in Baterilla, intending to end piracy, he said this-
"You want my treasure, you can have it I left everything I gathered together in one place. Now you'll just have to find it."
With this, he started the Golden Age of Piracy, with all pirates searching for it.
Hachinosu/Pirate Island
Hachinosu is a relatively small-to-mid-sized island whose foundation consists of dark-gray rock. Centrally on it are constructions made of yellowish rock, most prominently a large, skull-fashioned formation in its center, towering over all else. A city of many smaller buildings that were all square, crudely brick-built ones that surround said skull, as does a series of proportionally huge palm trees.
The skull's inside is carved into what appears to be a fortress where the current Emperor resided has been shown to reside, with the "nose" hole being a giant glass window with additional, smaller windows dotting the skull here and there, and both "eye" holes going right through the whole structure. On the outside, the skull is carved to look like it is wearing a bandana, including a rocky protrusion on the left side shaped like the ends of a knot.
It was said the first Davy Back fight took place there and that the now deliberately made unknowable Rocks Pirates were founded.
As of now, the current leaders, the Blackbeard Pirates were planning something...
On the head coach, was an extremely tall man with dark skin. He has a massive build as his body is round with relatively thin limbs. He has a big mouth with several broken or missing teeth, a pronounced crooked nose, and a very large and hairy chest and torso. Long, thick, woolly black hair falls down the back of his neck. He has a long beard that he has split into multiple sections. He also wears golden hoop earrings and the same black tricorne with a yellow bandana with red polka dots. He switches to a light purple shirt with a black captain's coat with red linings. He has a red and white feather with a purple flower on the side of his tricorne. He has an orange plume alongside his coat. He now wears dark blue pants with light blue floral designs on them. He also dons a pair of sunglasses.

An unusually big, tall, broad, broad-chested, broad-shouldered, muscular, tan-skinned, muscular man, with a broad upper body and a thin lower body in comparison. He has curly violet hair reaching down to his shoulders and always wears a dark brown mask with orange decorations on it, which covers the upper part of his face but reveals his eyes and his nose. He has an unkempt beard and wears a vertically striped black and white sleeveless shirt that has the same orange symbol as his luchador mask and he now wears a pair of brown gloves. He is wearing a championship belt around his waist and white pants with dark shoes.
"Champion"- Jesus Burgess- Helmsman/Martial Artist- First Ship Captain- One of the Ten Titanic Captains.
A tan man that was similar to his Admiral in height. a long face with a wide-bridged nose, a full-lipped mouth seen perpetually smoking a big cigar, and a wide, jutting, flat-ended chin. He wears a peaked cap with a dark-blue crown and black, low-set visor, plus a red cap band holding a frontal badge of the winged, crowned Jolly Roger insignia. Below, he wore what resembled a white aviator cap, the earflaps containing built-in hearing aids of sorts, consisting of perforated rings surrounding diaphragms. Below he donned a dark-blue, double-breasted trench coat that was below knee-length, ten-buttoned in gold, and with a buttoned collar bearing a red patch of the Impel Down insignia, but only the symbol on each wing all gold-trimmed. On each upper arm was a red brassard with, again, said insignia, which was further borne as a buckle by the light-brown belt present for the coat. Additionally, he wore brown, color-matching gloves and boots, below the elbow and knee-length respectively, and dark-green pants tucked into the latter. Further part of his uniform draped on his shoulders like a cape, was a light gray overcoat with white trim with a generic Jolly Roger emblazoned on the back. It had fringeless epaulets consisting of red, gold-bordered rectangles with additional golden fringes marked by golden X's next to single gold buttons. The coat's sleeves were plain, lacking turned-out cuffs.

The left lens of the black glasses he wears is a normal, rectangular eyepiece, but the right side is circular and holds what appears to be a crosshair. He sports a large black hat, protruding out to both sides. Its shape bears an uncanny resemblance to an upturned boat's hull. Van Augur is constantly wearing a long black cape, under which he wears a button-up, pale lavender shirt with loose sleeves, and simple black pants, with a maroon belt with an aqua outline that goes over a small portion of his shirt. He also wears black shoes. Due to the size of his rifle Senriku, he carries it leaning against his shoulder.

His mustache is a lighter blue than the rest of his hair, very large and droopy, sticking out about the same length as his shoulders; they resemble a cat's whiskers, fitting in with his feline-like appearance. He has a beard ending in three points and an ornate crown on his head. He also has no eyebrows. Since his debut, his arms so far have always been somewhat obscured, but it can be seen at one point that he has black vambraces with a spiral design; in the anime, it was revealed that he was wearing black and dark bronze metallic gloves.

He has light skin with a red undertone, an extremely wide neck, and on top, an unattractive face that is set most apart by his big, bulbous nose: uniform in its thickness, protruding down over his mouth and slightly frontward, with small, nearly unseen nose wings and a strange placement: its bridge starting higher than his eyes are set. The latter are widely spaced beside his nose, drooping, with purplish-gray irises underlined by black lines that jut upward from the outer eye corners like lashes, and are topped by what seem to be thin, short brows always drawn downward, touching the nose's upper edge. Otherwise, he is seen with a perpetual, drunken smile, his mouth gaping wide, exposing his big, rounded teeth, with his tongue sticking out, salivating, thickening the apples of his cheeks marked by blush marks, and forming prominent chin folds. His tall, rounded forehead is furrowed, with a black jester's hat above whose two cones bend over, and are tipped by white pompoms. Behind, his black, waved hair comes out to go down his back, and placed upon the sides of his neck, three on each, are large, golden ring piercings. He has a braided goatee, which he has grown since his time outside of Impel Down. He is always seen chugging on a large, yellowish gourd of liquor strapped on his back by a brown cord, which has the kanji "sake" on its bottom section.

Author Notes: Since this is heading into the endgame, it was very much time for the Blackbeard to make their move and to set up the next arc. I'll be focusing on the Straw Hats next.
