Disclaimer: I don't own One Piece Oda Eiichiro does. I don't own the character of Victor Von Doom he belongs to Marvel. I don't own Mass Effect, it belongs to Bioware and EA. I don't even own this brain that I'm using to write really, it was all wrinkled when I got it, I've been wondering "Who wrinkled me this brain?" my whole life.

Author's Note: So, we finally made it to canon. Sorry to disappoint all the people hoping for Doom Guy and got my Discount Viktor Von Doom character. To be fair he is also no Dr. Doom yet, he might grow into that or I might take him in a different direction, haven't decided yet. I will be making some changes to canon as things butterfly out, it will be small stuff at first and then it will be major changes as the story develops. As always please point out any mistakes you find.

I ran full speed all the way to the village without any breaks and thanks to my training I was barely even winded which is impressive considering the distance I had just run was a little less than six miles. My progress in Haki may have been nil and limited in Rokushiki but it didn't mean I didn't get stronger or more durable.

As I neared the village I heard some screams from villagers and saw some of them running my way. Some of them tried to talk to me presumable to warn me but I kept running. As I neared the edge of the village I pulled the cart to the side, in the back yard of someone's home and put my backpack and my giant rifle into the cart and then jumped on the roof of the house.

I jumped from roof to roof and made my way closer to the dock where the ship was now anchored and the where most of the screams were coming from. As I got closer I could see several hulking forms of what I could only assume were fish-men.

As I got closer I got a clearer look at the pirates assaulting this town and laughing and cheering as they did. I reigned my temper in and closely inspected them. All in all I saw eight of them moving in a group making their way inwards towards the village, they hadn't gotten far since I had ran here pretty fast. Some of them I could tell what kind of fish-men they were, like the carp and salmon fish-men that were closest to me the others I wouldn't even know where to begin, I was no marine biologist after all. All of them however had something vaguely off putting about them, the eyes didn't look the right size, the arms and legs were oddly proportioned and the scales glinting off their skins were oddly distracting not to mention the fins jutting of their backs and in the case of 3 of them their heads too. My observations done I jumped down from the roof and in front of the red salmon fish-men who was in the lead was kicking the fruit stand next to him.

Instead of blasting away immediately as I had done with the wild mountain animals I decided to indulge in an old bad habit. I decided to banter before I killed him, this habit had almost gotten me killed a bunch of times before I got it under control in my old world but I decided I could afford to indulge it a bit before the grand line at least.

"Thank you for making my decision easy for me." I said to him. The fish-men turned around surprised and brought his blade around although his reaction looked very slow to me.

"Dude, you are slow. Also, those are perfectly good fruits you just wasted." I observed while keeping the other fish-men that had also noticed me in my line of sight.

The fish-men instead of looking wary for some reason instantly relaxed when he looked at me. I realized it was because he was dismissing me as a threat because I was human and unarmed since my revolvers were hidden by my trench coat.

He turned to the other fish-men and laughed as he said. "Hey look we finally found a brave human."

I just smiled and eyed the other fishman as they slowly made their way over to me and began to ignore the villagers giving them time to run away from them.

One odd looking blue fish-men that had huge lips and what seemed to be a naturally growing collar that was usually associated with Shakespeare in my old world spoke up. "This guy looks pretty rich, he must be the guy who bought all that sea king meat."

I remembered I had ordered some sea king meat three weeks ago because I was curious as to what it might taste like, it was beyond amazing as I suspected and far more nutritional than the wild animals from the mountain. It had lasted me two weeks and the same amount of regular meat would not have even lasted me a full week. "Oh, so that's what attracted you fish heads to this place." I remarked and needled them to see exactly how sensitive that inferiority complex was.

As it turns out extremely sensitive since the salmon fish-men that was closest to me roared. "Shut your damn mouth you human." then raised his cutlass looking sword and charged at me.

He seemed so slow to me that he might as well have been moving in slow motion. I leaned to my right avoiding the slash from his sword and punched him with a small amount of force exerted by the elbow only. He bent over in the middle and bounced back a couple of feet. "Well, that's disappointing." I remarked as I looked at the downed fish-men who was now laying on the ground bent over and clutching his stomach.

I looked to the other fish-men that were looking a bit wary now. "Please tell me you're stronger than he was." I remarked honestly because that guy was far too weak even for fodder.

Five of them immediately charged me while two of them also came my way but were looking towards the guy I had knocked down earlier presumably to help him.

The guy in the lead seemed to be unarmed however this was a big guy, biggest of the fish-men here, easily over seven feet and he had some sort of natural looking shell armor on his body including his knuckles which I could see pretty clearly since he was trying to punch me in the face.

I decided to catch this punch with both hands. As his fist impacted my outstretched hands I felt a slight amount of force not enough to shake me though. So, instead of pushing me back like he expected to the rebound broke his hand and hurt his arm and shoulder which he grabbed painfully with his other hand. I decided to make things worse for him by gripping his wrist with my right hand and threw him behind me by lifting him up with the injured arm.

I decided I was bored fighting the fodder and decided to end this fight early. I ran ahead to meet the four fish-men that had now stopped and were starting to turn around to presumably escape into the water. I caught up to them and punched the nearest one in the back using all of my strength, my fist buried itself deep into his back and even though it didn't break the skin, I felt what was probably his spine crack and push forward into his organs through my hand.

I side-stepped past the now falling fish-men and kicked out twice each time hitting the two fish-men in the hips. The fish-men on my right was the carp fish-men I had recognized the type of and I felt some bones break in both of them as they folded in half which was probably not supposed to happen even for fish-men.

This left only one of the initial five that had charged me and he had now regrouped with the other two who were now standing there eyeing me warily having completely abandoned their injured friend in lieu of saving themselves. I noticed one of the fish-men, the one in the center pull out a flintlock pistol and start to aim it at me.

I snorted and stood still not even bothering to dodge because I could tell his aim was way off and as I expected the bullet went past my right shoulder a good half foot away from it. "You wanna play with guns, fine let's play with guns." I said now completely done humoring these guys.

I pulled out two revolvers one shaded white and the other black. I politely introduced the guns to the uneducated pirates. "This is Ivory she's the nice and kind one, you piss her off she's just gonna hurt you but you'll probably live." I said lifting up the white revolver and to further explain shot the guy standing on the left and he immediately started convulsing from the electric shocks going through his system.

The other two just looked at me in shock(heh) then I pulled up the black revolver and shot the guy that had tried to shoot me earlier and his head promptly exploded. "This is ebony, she is a murderous bitch." I needlessly explained.

The one last standing fish-men finally decided to try and open up a dialog. "You have no idea what you've done, you're dead human, we are par-" He only got that far before I shot a hole through his torso with ebony.

"Part of the Arlong Pirates yeah, I noticed the ugly ass flag flying on the mast." I said to the dead man. I turned around and noticed the villagers had noticed the fish-men were all defeated and dead and were coming out of houses and alleys where they were hiding.

The blacksmith that I had dealt with the most came up to me and said. "Master Doom thank you for rescuing us from these pirates but I'm afraid their friends will now be coming for your head."

I waved away his concern and said. "Don't worry about it Hess, as you know I was planning to head to the grand line soon anyway, I think I'm gonna go clean up these Arlong Pirates on my way out so they don't get any ideas."

I then made my way to all the fish-men I had knocked down but not killed and put a bullet through each of their heads leaving the guy I electrocuted alive. Some of the villagers looked horrified of me casually executing people even if they were pirates and fish-men on top, not Hess though he just nodded, he was cool like that.

I dragged my cart back to me to the dock and put the one unconscious fish-men's body on to the cart and then dragged it on to the ship, the cart barely fit on the ship and it wobbled dangerously for a bit but it held. I pulled back the gangplank and waved to Hess and said. "Keep an eye on the paper Hess, I expect I'll be making news soon enough."

I examined the ship more closely and noticed that it was in terrible condition, I expect the only reason it made it as far as it did is because the fish-men were pushing it manually. It was pretty small, barely above a sloop in size. I put my hands on the deck and willed my power to shape the wood back into shape and strengthen the repairs to the hull by merging them into the hull itself once I was done, the thing looked brand new.

This was another thing I had discovered about my abilities, cut and processed wood which was used to make ships was considered dead for the purpose of my abilities, which meant I could repair any wooden construct to perfection. I had picked technology as my one defining power partly so I could reinforce the Going Merry to prevent it from breaking and my devil fruit ability had made that redundant, though I did still have some other ideas regarding that problem since some issues even perfect repairs wouldn't fix. I briefly considered adding a motorized propeller but decided to wait.

I lifted the anchor and set the sail to catch the wind and draw us away from the dock. I had learned some sailing during the last year by going out to fish with the fishermen from the island though I couldn't devote too much time to it since I had to focus on my training

I examined the boat and noticed a table with a map and compassed nailed into it. I examined the map, it was an incredibly well made map with a clear route from Conomi Island to here. "This is obviously Nami's handiwork." I observed as I looked at the map which made my temper spike, since I could just picture her slaving away at this map for her mother's murderer.

I decided to harness my anger and interrogate the one surviving fish-men I had brought with me. I was going to wake him up when I realized an unrestrained fish-men on a boat with a devil fruit ability user like me was probably a bad idea so I quickly fashioned some metal restraints around his arms and legs and then slapped him hard to wake him up.

Once he came to and realized he was alone with me and restrained he snarled despite the fact that he was likely scared out of his mind right now. "What the hell are you doing human?! Where are my friends and what are you doing on our ship?!"

"They're dead." I calmly replied his eyes widened and he was about to say something else when I reached out and grabbed his left forearm and squeezed breaking the bone.

He screamed as I continued. "Now answer some of my questions and you might get to live."

"I am not telling you anything human!" He screamed in my face. At this point I realized I could most likely make him talk but that would take some time and unfortunately my temper was getting the best of me. I was planning on asking him about Arlong's forces, the precise situation on the island and all the other important little logistics canon didn't explain but as I said my temper was getting to me so I decided I would wing it when I got there.

"Screw it, if the rest of Arlong's flunkeys are as weak as you lot then I don't need to know anything else. You're a waste of time and air." I said and pulled up ebony and aimed between his eyes as I manhandled him against the edge of the ship.

"Wai-" he started to say before I interrupted him with a shot to the head, which with a .50 cal bullet meant that it pureed his head and he promptly fell overboard.

I looked at the compass and map to adjust my heading with the rudder and started to sail towards Conomi Islands then I remembered the flag of Arlong Pirates hanging on top of the main mast. I looked up to see it was still there, I jumped up making sure to be not hard enough to destabilize the boat and Geppo-ed once to reach the top of the mast and ripped the offending flag and turned it to threads with my ability. This was the most destructive use of my ability that I had found, using Shaping to reduce something into smaller parts, like turning stone to dust and since I wasn't Transmuting it into anything else, the energy drain wasn't all that high, mostly it scaled with the size of what I was Shaping.

I made it about three hours of constantly adjusting the sail to catch the wind before I gave up, pulled out some steel plates from the bags I had brought with me and made a propeller and stuck it at the stern of the boat, secured in place with some steel screws and nuts. I also made a standard lead acid battery by transmuting some Tungsten plates I had brought with me for the motor since I could just charge it up with transmutation.

I started steering the ship with a steering handle attached to the propeller and started to sail much faster and much easier than earlier.

I neared the main island in the Conomi Islands chain, about five hours later, making this an eight hour journey, thankfully I had packed some food with me and managed to eat a decent meal on the way. I could see that there was a village there on the island with upturned houses.

"If I'm not mistaken that should be Gosa Village, the one Arlong destroyed for shits and giggles." I observed passively.

I then heard some screaming coming from my right so I made my way over and saw a half sunken Marine ship with some marines struggling in the water.

'This must be the marines from that battleship that kissy face, karate kid and pointy head sunk, it seems they left the marines alive and just walked away. Sloppy work assholes.' I'll use his name once he stops being a dick, that's assuming I don't murder him in a rage.

"Hello there idiot marines, need some help?" I called out to the marines trying desperately to stay afloat after presumably having survived a whirlpool recently and dead tired.

"Hey you, there are pirates on this island. I am ordering you to hand over your ship for mar-" this was as far as the suicidal marine got before one of his level headed friends decided to shut him up by punching him in the head.

"Ignore him sir, I think his brain is waterlogged. Yes we could definitely use some help, please." He asked politely.

'Huh, a decent marine, miracles do happen.' I thought with some amusement. 'Or he noticed me getting pissed and reaching for my gun while his friends was running his mouth,'

"Fine, hang tight there, I will have a raft ready for you in a bit." I called out cheerfully. Then looked at the half sunken battleship which was sinking even further as I watched and judged the distance between it and my ship and decided it was more than close enough to reach from here.

"A raft? What-" that suicidal marine decided to open his mouth again but I wasn't paying attention I instead jumped up and then Geppo-ed in the air three times to reach the sinking marine ship and immediately put my hands on the deck.

Most of the front of the ship had broken off and sunk including the mast, so this thing wasn't gonna sail any time soon, but it could float. I Shaped the wood from the ship into a serviceable raft as quickly as I could and the ship changed and lurch under me as it changed shape. When I was done I was standing on a fairly large raft with some jagged edges sticking out. I frowned at that, 'It seems my Shaping is still rough when it comes to large structures like this.' I thought grumpily.

I decided to fix my mistake by removing some wood from the edges of the raft to make some oars. I then looked up to see the marines all staring at me wide eyed, some with awe but most with fear and suspicion. 'Right, east blue marines, they have probably never seen a devil fruit ability user before.'

"What the hell are you waiting for? An engraved invitation? Or maybe for some of those fish-men to come back and finish the job?" I called out and the marines survival instincts and training finally kicked in and they started swimming to the newly made raft.

Once all of them had made it on board I walked over to the marine I had talked to earlier that was now tending to a wounded marine that looked like an officer with some really funky hair. I remembered his name was Purin something.

"Nice hair, must be murder on the sea though, marine regs don't have anything to say against that?"" I asked the guy, he was clearly not in a chatty mood.

"Is this a joke to you?! Good people, good marines died today to those fish-men pirates!" The guy snarled while still clutching his wound.

"Don't take your idiocy out on me. You're the idiot that decided to fight a pirate group made up of fish-men from the comfort of your ship. That's like rule number one hairdo, don't fight fish-men on the water. Whatever, my good deed for the day is done, if you're smart you'll hide somewhere in that wrecked village till you can call for backup or you could get another bright idea and get the rest of your men killed too." I said as I shrugged.

He made to say something else but I had already jumped off the raft and Geppo-ed my way back to my ship. "Don't worry about Arlong either, I'll deal with him and his flunkies. It's why I came here in the first place." I called out and turned my engine back on and starting making my way to the shore.

Once I was on the shore I unloaded my cart and dragged it through the town with me looking for a place to stash it. As I walked through the town I saw the upturned houses with furniture spilling out on the street. I stopped as I noticed I was stepping on a teddy bear of some child and took a good look around. This was a town full of people once, not just some characters on a screen but people with lives. "Yeah Arlong's gonna die slow for this." I said through gritted teeth.

I found some dense forest, retrieved my rifle and slung it on to my back and hid my cart under some bushes, there's nothing irreplaceable in there but it would still be a pain to lose it. I then started walking down the road in the general direction of Arlong Park that I could see from here.

After I had made my way into the island some fair bit I finally ran into the people I was looking for. I spotted Zoro, Sanji, Usopp and Luffy standing up ahead. They looked fairly close to what they looked like in the manga/anime but a bit more realistically proportioned except for Usopp's nose that thing was huge. I walked up and leaned against a tree just as Usopp finished explaining how Nami had saved his life by pretending to kill him at which point I interrupted.

"So you finally set out to sail and got yourself a crew huh half-wit? Though it seems you got yourself into a bit of a pickle here." I called out to Luffy.

At which point they all turned to me, except for Usopp who jumped straight up in the air, screamed and then backpedaled away. I chuckled a bit at that. "Well, that one will be entertaining for you if nothing else huh Luffy."

"Who the hell are you?" Zoro asked me as he kept one hand on his sword, even with the bandages covering him I could tell that was one heinous looking wound.

"You know this guy?" Sanji asked Luffy who looked at me and simply said. "No idea."

"Yeah, you wouldn't really remember would you, it was eleven years ago. Here's a hint your grandfather came to visit mine with you and the other two in tow, you all stayed for two weeks during which your grandfather repeatedly tried to kill me. Oh, and I kicked you down a cliff for call-" which was as far as I got before Luffy interrupted me.

"Dumb Guy! It's you. What are-" at which point I interrupted him by running up to him with a speed close to Soru, pulled Ivory out in my left hand and put the barrel up to his forehead and said. "What I was saying was I kicked you down a cliff for calling me Dumb Guy, how many times do I have to tell you my name is Doom before it goes through your thick rubber skull to your rubber brain?"

The little monkey just laughed. "Shishisshi, you're still an angry guy huh, getting angry at nothing."

At which point I noticed that Zoro was standing to my left and had unsheathed his sword and put it at the back of my neck and Sanji was on my right, he had a leg raised and pointed at my back. "What? You two wanna get in on this too?" I challenged them and at this point Usopp finally remembered to pull out his slingshot and aim at me.

"You are pointing a gun at our captain, now he may be bulletproof but that doesn't mean you can get away with something like that. Old acquaintance or not." Zoro said menacingly staring at me.

"What the shitty mosshead said." Sanji agreed.

"You look half dead on your feet already, pretty sure long nose's gonna miss because his hand's shaking so much and I think I'm tough enough to handle swirly brow's shitty kick oh and I have two hands." I pointed out shaking my right hand with the gun pointing right at him.

At this point Usopp piped up and said. "Luffy who the hell is this scary guy?!"

"Oh, he's the grandson of a friend of my grandfather. I met him once a long time ago." The monkey replied completely ignoring the tension in the air or somehow judging my intention not to start a fight and acting accordingly.

At this point Nojiko decided to interrupt our little standoff and walked up to say. "Aren't you all on the same pirate crew? Why are you trying to kill each other? I thought you all got along."

"I am not in their crew."

"He is not in our crew."

We all said simultaneously. At this point I decided my point had been made and holstered my guns, after which Zoro looked at his captain, nodded and sheathed his sword, Usopp sighed a sigh of relief and looked like he had escaped death's clutches and Sanji backed off to do Sanji things.

"Hello~ pretty lady! How can this humble and single cook be of service?" He crooned out zipping over to her and kneeling down with hands clasped in front of him.

I looked at that strangely for a bit then turned back to Luffy and said. "My name is Doom, learn the damn name already or next time you call me Dumb Guy I am setting you on fire. You have been warned."

"Shishi, sure thing." The monkey agreed with obviously no intention of following through.

Nojiko ignored Sanji and asked me. "If you're not with them then who are you? Are you with the marines that Arlong and his crew sunk earlier? I thought they all died."

I snorted. "No, I am not with the marines, I did help the survivors reach the island safely though. If they're smart they should be hiding and recovering in the village with the upturned houses somewhere. As for me, I am just a wandering mass murderer here to kill Arlong because he pissed me off." I explained.

Zoro and Sanji quirked a brow at the murderer comment, Usopp looked like he had a heart attack and Luffy just laughed stating. "You're still a funny guy."

"I was never a funny guy, it's your damn brain that's funny half-wit. I blame too many fists of love to the head for that one." I deadpanned.

Luffy actually flinched, it seemed the trauma from the fist of love ran deep. Nojiko at this point decided to ignore me along with Sanji's pathetic attempts at flirting. "No matter if you're pirates or whatever else and whatever you do, Arlong's rule won't come to an end." She stated as if she was telling us the sky was blue. She was that convinced that it was impossible to beat Arlong, I suppose that's what years of oppression and repeated reinforcement of fish-men superiority by Arlong's crew would do to someone.

"Yeah, I'm definitely gonna kill Arlong slowly and painfully, I had already decided on that after seeing that village but now I think I'm gonna get creative too. Maybe an acid bath? I'll think of something." I said out loud.

At which point Usopp shrieked. "Luffy get him to stop saying scary things!"

Luffy just replied. "He was like that back then too." And shrugged. Luffy pointed at Nojiko and asked Usopp "Who is she?"

Usopp replied "That's Nojiko, Nami's older sister." At which point Sanji did some more Sanji things.

"She's Nami-san's older sister?! No wonder she's so pretty." Sanji squealed.

"What do you mean it's no use?" Zoro asked Nojiko.

"Please don't get any more involved with this village and leave Nami alone. I will explain the circumstances. You'll feel like leaving the island once you hear it." She asked us.

"I'll pass." Luffy said immediately. "I will pass too since I have no idea who this Nami is, I am just here to kill Arlong cause he pissed me off by sending his flunkies over to where I lived." I added

"And I don't care about her past." He said walking away.

"Where are you going Luffy?" Sanji asked Luffy to which he replied "A walk"

I followed him out. "I will have a little chat with him and then pack up Arlong and his little buddies in a jiffy don't worry about a thing." I said to Nojiko as I walked past her.

I heard Nojiko ask "Who the hell are they?" with Zoro replying "No idea about the guy in the coat but our captain is just how he is." Their conversation continued but I couldn't hear them anymore as I followed Luffy.

"So, finally set out to sea huh, you were constantly bragging about how you'd gather the strongest, I will say you've gathered an interesting bunch for yourself." I remarked to Luffy.

"Shishishi, yeah they're the best." He replied with a big smile and I couldn't help but return it.

"Tell me about them." I asked and Luffy told me the Luffy version of how they all met.

I smiled and nodded along, it was hard not to get caught up in his enthusiasm. I soon noticed we had reached a town and my smile disappeared as I saw the rat looking marine officer marching off the other way.

"I don't like the look of that rat. Luffy, I'm gonna go check that out, you go on your walk." I said without looking at him, still tracking the marines. I left Luffy standing there and ducked into an alley and jumped on the roof and followed the marines through rooftops.

I eventually tracked them to a house with a tangerine orchard. 'This must be Nami and Nojiko's house.' I saw as the rat made his little speech about confiscating the stolen goods and I wanted to rip that smug little smirk straight off his face. I took a breath and got myself under control with the reminder that this was necessary for Nami to finally realize that Arlong had no intention of honoring his bargain. I saw Nojiko arrive and try to talk some sense into the smug little rat in human clothing without realizing that some people are beyond sense. This guy was reminding me an awful lot of the kind of people I made an example out of, those were the crooked cops and feds that were on the payroll of the mafia family I had hunted down. I had always killed those guys in particularly gruesome ways if I could manage it and this rat bastard was pushing all my buttons.

I somehow kept myself under control by gripping my fist hard enough to draw blood, I waited as he finally found the blood stained money and starting salivating over it and as Nami ran at him to stop him physically he started to pull out a gun and that was it, I had reached my limit, I was not letting this rat bastard shoot anyone. I jumped off the roof and landed in front of the gun just as it shot, the bullet hit my chest with a thunk and I barely even noticed it, I had received countless injuries over the past year fighting monstrous animals, hell I had even been gored by a rhino once and my inhuman exercise routing was also extremely painful so I had become used to pain. I think even if I hadn't my absolute rage would have carried me through at the moment.

I looked up to see the shocked look on the rat bastard face right before I kicked him in the knees and broke them with a crack. "You stay put, I will make my way back to you once I have killed all your men." I told him. At this point I was beyond caring if these assholes were just following orders or whatever else, right now I wanted blood and these assholes would bleed.

I vaguely registered Nojiko or Nami saying something but I ignored them and focused on the marine to my left within arm's reach, I put my hand in a claw shape and swiped it at his throat and came away with most of his throat in my hand. His friends saw what happened and started drawing weapons, I charged at them I straightened all my fingers out and pushed my hand straight through another marine all strategy forgotten for the moment and started ripping through the marines, they tried shooting and stabbing me and some of them even succeeded but none of it saved them from getting ripped apart.

By the time I had regained my sense I was holding some marine's arm, covered in blood with three swords sticking out from me and marine bodies laying around in pieces around me. Ignoring the swords and leaving them where they were, I walked to the rat. He was just staring at me in shock and fear.

I picked him up with his neck and he shrieked at me. "What the hell are you, you monster?!"

"My name is Viktor Von Doom and I absolutely despise people like you. See if you wanted ill-gotten gains you could have become a thief, a pirate or even a bandit but you chose to wear that uniform and then act like a fucking thief. You collude with pirates, you ignore the suffering of these people and then you act like it is JUSTICE!"

He had the gall to snarl at me. "So what?! You think you're some kind of hero of justice then you freak?!"

I chuckled. "Oh not at all, I am much more about revenge than justice, I am also a monster that murders as easily as he breathes but above all that I am a selfish asshole that does what he wants, when he wants and what I want to do right now is squeeze your neck until your head pops off your shoulders. So I will do just that." I replied and started squeezing until with a wet squelch his neck turned to goo in my hands.

Edit Note: Fixed a mistake where I called Nojiko, Makino instead. I made a similar mistake earlier and called Clover from Ohara Crocus instead. Names are hard.
