Of course things go wrong when things are just looking good for Law. Just as he was about to propose an alliance with Straw hat Luffy, a bright light appeared out of nowhere, and everything went black.
When he woke up he almost had a panic attack looking at all the different people in the room he awakened from. The room was pretty spacious with different types of chairs and couches, there was also a large black rectangle in front, facing the seats– that looked really comfortable to Law. He had to take a moment and calm himself, when he realized he was the only one awake– thank god. As he observed the powerful uncious bodies, he spotted pink feathers, and immediately tried to attack him– key word 'tried'. When he tried to activate his devil fruit power, nothing happened, that's when he noticed that Kikoku was missing. When he tried to use other means to try to dispose of the feathered freak, an invisible force held him back, and prevented him from moving any further.
So, that leads him to where he is now, silently watching the other occupants in the room– that Law's tried to escape from– only to find out that there's no exit. He's slightly worried when the other's will wake up, because he knows it's not going to be a pretty sight. Law's just hoping, for when they wake up, that the invisible force will work on them too.
As if on cue, he heard a low grunting, and immediately tensed. It seemed like everyone decided they wanted to wake up together, because everyone was slowly opening their eyes, and looking around. He did not want to be the center of these strong- and possibly insane- people's attention, so he tried to hide himself against one of the walls in the room, and watched the others try to figure out what was happening.
"What the hell- where the hell am I?!" asked an angry red head.
Law immediately cringed when he noticed that it was Eustass Kid who shouted. He was glad he wasn't in his shoes right now. Thankfully, Eustass-ya seemed to understand his situation once he looked around the room and noticed the overpowered people in the room, and immediately tried to access his devil fruit power with no success. Law noticed that Eustass-ya looked around the room in confusion- and a little fear- before his eyes settled on Law. He seemed a little relieved, and made a beeline for him- and Law couldn't blame him. He himself was secretly reassured that someone of the same power level was with him, but would never admit it outloud. As Eustass-ya made his way to Law, he took note that the others in the room didn't notice Eustass-ya move or ignored him in favor of figuring out where they were- which he was thankful for. When Eustass-ya reached him, he didn't say a word and they both watched the conflict that was about to erupt.
"Eeh- Rayleigh, I think I had one to many drinks last night, because I'm pretty sure we were on the Oro jackson when we went to bed."
"Don't worry, you're not going mad captain. We were definitely on the Oro jackson."
"Then explain why we are in a room, full of random people- oh hey look, it's Newgate."
"You're right, I wonder if he has any idea how we got here."
"Hey Newgate! Do you know what's going on or how we got here?!"
"Oh Roger- of course you would me in the middle of this mess- and no I don't know what's going on, I was on the Moby Dick last time I checked. It seems like we're in the same boat."
"Aww that sucks. Oh, hey Marco."
"Hey."
There was an awkward silence. It seemed the other individuals in the room were as baffled at the exchange as he was.
Suddenly there was a bang, and everyone tensed and looked around for any threat. Everyone turned their heads towards the noise and noticed a puff of white smoke was above their heads and a piece of paper was falling from it. Everyone watched as it gracefully floated down and landed in the pirate king's hands. He seemed to make a decision in his head, because he nodded to himself and unfolded the piece of paper and read it. There was a tense silence then- WACK!
"Ow! Rayleigh what was that for?!"
"Read it out loud dumbass!"
"Oh."
The pirate king cleared his throat and read,
"Welcome everyone. I know y'all are confused and wondering what's going on."
There were some scoffs and grunts, in agreement or in exasperation, Law didn't know.
"I have gathered you all here for an important viewing, but first, as I'm sure you've noticed, there are some people here that are from different times. So, first things first, I need y'all to introduce yourselves, and tell what time period you're from. And please just cooperate, because I don't have time for you complaining about how you're busy or you could be doing something more important than this. In any case, time has momentarily stopped from the outside world so there should be no complaining. And before you ask how I am able to do this, let's just say it's my devil fruit power. After you have introduced yourselves another paper will appear and give y'all more details about what y'all will be doing."
There was silence until-
"Ok, I guess I'll go first. My name is Gol D. Roger, captain of the Roger Pirates, and I am from XXXX period." grinned and overly happy pirate king, considering his situation.
Law guessed that's who he was, but he was still shocked when it was confirmed. It seemed that others in the room agreed with Law, because some people seemed to shift around in uneasiness.
The next man rolled his eyes and stepped forward,
"I'm Rayleigh, first mate of the Roger Pirates, and I'm from the same time as him."
There was less shuffling at the statement, but still some uneasiness.
"I'm Whitebeard, captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, and I'm from the same time."
"I'm Marco, and I'm the first division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates."
Marco looked really young, and it was really weird to see an almost naive look on the man, Law thought.
"I'm Monkey D. Garp, a vice admiral for the navy, and I'm from after Marineford."
"Doflamingo, or Joker, one of the seven warlords of the sea, and I'm from the same time as the marine."
Law gritted his teeth as the feathered freak smirked. Acting like nothing was wrong, and was just enjoying the show. He calmed himself down as the next person introduced themselves.
"I'm Shanks-"
"SHANKS?!" interrupted the pirate king. "What the heck- are you telling me that this man right here, is also the little brat who was scrubbing my deck last night?!" Roger-ya sounded totally confused and skeptical that this grown man-who's almost as tall as him- was his apprentice. As for the red haired man, he looked exasperated if not a little embarrassed and his old captain's outburst.
"Yes captain, that's me." grinned the red haired man. As for Roger-ya he had a dumb expression on his face, while his first mate had a thoughtful one. Law was seriously doubting that this man was the pirate king.
"As I was saying, I'm Shanks, one of the four emperors of the sea-"
"WHAT?! How the hell did-" WACK!
"Roger, shut up, and let him finish or we will be here all day."
"Oh right, sorry." There was a moment of silence then, "please continue."
Shanks-ya looked exasperated, but there was some fondness in his eyes, then continued, "I am from after Marineford."
"Kaido, captain of the Beast Pirates, one of the four emperors of the sea, same time."
Law noticed that Kaido seemed very disinterested in what was going on.
"Mamamama, I'm Big Mom, captain of the Big Mom pirates, one of the four emperors of the sea, and from the same time as Kaido."
Suddenly all eyes went to Law and his shoulder buddy. He felt himself and Eustass-ya tense, and straightened up at all the judging eyes on them. Before Law could even say anything Eustass-ya beat him to it- and he silently cursed the other, because that means he would have to go last.
"I'm Eustass Kid, captain of the Kid Pirates, and I'm from after Marineford." Everyone seemed underwhelmed by his title and appearance and moved their eyes to Law, and he thought he might as well get this over with.
"I'm Trafalgar Law, one of the seven warlords of the sea, captain of the Heart Pirates, and from after Marineford." Law felt relief when he didn't have to speak anymore. Some of the others in the room eyed him, but eventually their attention was moved elsewhere when another piece of paper appeared out of nowhere and floated onto the pirate king's hands. He cleared his throat and read,
"Ok, since we got that covered, we can move on. So, as I said before, y'all will be watching an important viewing. These viewings will show the past, present, and future– and don't act shocked, all of you have been to the New World, nothing's impossible. The viewing will show a certain pirate crew, and their journey. The viewing will be shown on the black rectangle on the wall, and y'all can sit down on those chairs and couches. The viewing will contain music, and footage of this pirate crew and their adventures. Also there is no fighting. As some of you noticed, you can not activate your devil fruit powers, and your weapons are gone. If you try other ways to inflict violence, then an invisible force will hold you back, and you will look dumb, while everyone else will laugh at you. Ok, have fun. Bye."
There was another awkward silence then–
"Well this is better than sitting in my office, so I'm in." said a clearly bored Garp.
"I wasn't doing anything either, and possibly watching the future sounds interesting." Red hair Shanks said with a grin.
Kadio-ya suddenly moved towards the couches and charis, and plopped in a chair– that somehow grew to fit his size– and grunted, "Whatever."
Roger-ya followed his example to the seats, and shouted, "Hey, Shanks! Come sit next to me and Rayleigh!"
Shanks-ya shook his head in exasperation, but started to walk towards his old captain, and sat next to him on one of the couches. It was a weird sight to see Red Hair Shanks being sandwiched between the Pirate King and Dark Silvers Rayleigh. They seemed to be happily talking together, acting like this was normal.
"Gurararara, let's go Marco."
Marco hummed an agreement and they sat on a couch next to the Roger trio. Garp sat in a chair a few paces away from them, and somehow found a package of crackers and was now happily chomping on them. Doflamingo was already seated in a chair near Kiado, and Law made a note to sit far away from him. Big Mom was also seated in a chair near Kaido, and was also somehow snacking on some sweets. Eustass-ya and Law shared a glance, shrugged, and moved to a couch near the Roger trio.
There was sounds of talking and crunching sounds of people eating when–
"Did the note say what pirate crew we will be watching?" asked a confused Marco.
Some people had a look on their face that said, "why didn't I think of that." But then Roger-ya spoke up and said,
"Aah, no, it didn't say." the pirate king stated kind of dumbly.
There was a ruffling sound and then an exasperated sigh, "Roger, there was a P.S at the bottom of the note." Rayleigh-ya looked like he was about to end it all. As for Roger-ya he had a sheepish smile on his face, and said a simple, 'Oh'. Rayleigh-ya rolled his eyes and read the note out loud, "P.S the pirate crew y'all will be viewing, are the Straw Hat Pirates."
"Bawahahahaha, of course it's my grandson!" Garp exclaimed loudly.
Law himself was curious as to why it was Luffy-ya and his crew that would be shown. And it seemed that his couch buddy was confused, and possibly a little angered by this. Then Shanks-ya said something that shocked Law and some of the other occupants in the room.
"Aah we will be watching Little Anchor, ehh?" He seemed to have a fond look on his face.
His couch mates had the same confused, but interested expression on their face when the pirate king asked, "You know this pirate crew Shanks?"
"Well, I know their captain, Luffy," said Shanks-ya with a grin. Well, this was news to most of the people in this room. Red hair continued, "I met him when he was just a kid, and I gave him my straw hat. He actually reminds me a bit of you, captain." He said with a laugh.
The pirates from the past looked interested, and Law was shocked to be informed that Luffy-ya's hat previously belonged to Red Hair Shanks.
"Gah! If it wasn't for you, Red Hair, my grandson would've become a great marine!" Garp-ya stated, but didn't seem to be too entirely upset about the matter. He seemed to accept that his grandson was a pirate, and nothing could change that.
"Stop your squabbling, and let's get this over with." Grumbled the captain of the Beast Pirates.
"Mamamama! I agree, let's start this viewing so I can go back to eating my treats. Although, I don't know what's so special about that Straw Hat," huffed Big Mom, "He only causes trouble, and he's just a pestering fly that I will soon crush, because he ate all my candy."
Ok, Law did not know that Straw Hat already had an emperor on his bad side, and was now questioning his alliance proposal to Luffy-ya. Although it seemed Luffy-ya had another one backing up, so he would wait on his decision until after this viewing was over. After all, it will show the future, and Law was curious to see what Luffy-ya will do.
Suddenly the lights dimmed, and everyone went quiet. Law guessed that the viewing was about to start, and was eager to know what will be shown. It seemed the others were too, because they all turned their eyes to the black rectangle.
