Its a bit of a shorter one. I tried to fix the grammar mistakes. I'm not very good at writing but I like it so I hope you injoy.

Luffy POV

I knew I should of listened to Sabo when I had the chance about basic sailing now I'm stuck in this barrel. Well good part I'm on a ship now.

I'm just going to sit here a little longer.

At that moment the barrel tips over as if someone is rolling it. Though I can't know for sure since.. well I'm in the barrel.

Then it as fast as it started they stop pushing.

I then hear some talking. Screw it I'm busting out.

As best I can I punch the top of the barrel making the top explode.

When I fully stand I look around. I see two people with swords and one unconscious on the ground all there stats are rather low. Though the kid with the pink hair has an unusually high will stat 150 in the East blue without training Wow.

I look back at the two "Sooo? Who are you two"

They just yell "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU"

I laugh as I put my hand on my hat "Oh. That's easy I'm Monkey D. Luffy"

He stuck his sword at me "Are you messing with us even though we are vicious pirates"

I make a gesture of looking for pirates "Vicious Pirates where. The only one I'd ever be worried about would be the pink haired shrimp over there. If he got an actual training. I'd might get a challenge in the future."

They didn't seem all to happy with me mocking them as they both swing there swords at me in almost slow motion. I use my index finger to stop both swords and because of Tough they didn't even scratch. I frown at all there shocked faces "Shame. Well I'm bored of you two"

With that I use a very weak and concentrated Blast of haki knocking the two out.

I then hear "What just happened"

I turn to the shrimp "Well I knocked them out little Shrimp"

I can almost see the sweat drop on him from that. I laugh as I then start to walk towards a door. As much as he was trying to stop me.

Once in I see a mountain of food. "hahaha I haven't eaten in six weeks. This is gonna be good"

I hear the shrimp yell "Six weeks! How are you alive!"

I look over at him with an expression of 'are you dumb' then once I swallow I tell him "Well through sear will duh. I got a dream I'm not going to go and kick the bucket from starvation. I would of needed another month. Though it is nice being out of that barrel."

He looks at me like I'm crazy "What is the dream that would make you survive a month and a half in a barrel".

I laugh "Well I going to be king of the pirates obviously".

He then goes on some long rant and ends it with something along the lines of 'your going to die give up'

I stand up "Shrimp"

"It's actually Coby"

I continue "Shrimp do you have a dream"

He looks at me "yes. I've always wanted to be a marine. I've always wanted to catch bad guys and protect the innocent."

I crack a small smile "Well then Sh- Coby you should know how I feel. Dreams are something you grasp onto no mater what ANYONE tells you. They are things that you only let go of once you die and sometimes not even that should stop you. Death should have no sway in your decision if it is truly your dream"

When he hears that I see something change in his eyes. They are like my words have light somthing dormant in him. "Luffy do you think I could become a marin"

I bust into laughter "How would I know that Little shrimp. That something you decide for yourself."

He then yells "I've decided. I'm going to be a marine. Then I'll turn around and catch Alveda myself"

I smile once again. Coby you are pretty interesting. Before I could say anything to him. The ceiling caved and a rather large lady fell through yelling "you're going to do what COBY"

I tune them out to look at her stats. Not very high except Strength 190 higher then a lot of east blue pirates and her will 200.

Well might as well end this fast. "Shame. If you weren't such a bitch. I might of even asked you to join my crew"

This pissed her off reel good. Then as she swung her club I just use Haki and made sure it didn't affect Coby. The weird thing is two windows pop up Alvida was failed to knock unconscious and Nami was failed to knock unconscious

This Nami seems interesting. Part of Arlong's crew aye? "Well sorry Alveda"

I then rush forward and kick her high into the sky. Nice and quick... and boring.

This sucks. I then hear canons out side. I grab Coby and hope up to the deck and jump off as I still see Namis window. We land on her boat. Causing it to rock. As it does I catch a glimpse of a tattoo on the girls shoulder when the fabric moved. I only saw half but it looks like Arlongs mark

I laugh and hold my hat on head as we settle down "wow we landed on a boat. Lucky."

Coby then yells "so you didn't know this was hear."

I laugh "of course not. Though now I wonder if I could of gotten her bounty if she ha- oh hello"

The girl has Orange hair, she whears a basic pirate outfit. Then she starts yelling "who the hell are you"

I laugh "currently we should be worried about getting out of here miss thief"

She flinched but we got out of there real fast.

Once we were out of there she then turns to me "NOW WHY THE HELL ARE YOU ON MY BOAT OR IM THROWING YOU OVERBOARD"

I laugh "you should not do that."

She just yells at me once again "And why not"

I laugh "I can't swim. I since like a rock so I'd die.. oh and I'm Luffy and I'm a... Well technically a bounty hunter"

She just glares "Explain now"

I let out a soft chuckle "Well I need money for a ship three million would do so I was going to take out all the big shots like Kreg and Arlong"

She flinches at Arlong's name. So not willing.

She then glares "So you're in it for the money but you said you only need three million."

"Well kinda. I would of taken care of them when I first heard of them like Arlong. I heard he took over a village eight years ago but unfortunately do to a promise to my deceased sister I had to wait till I was seventeen."

She looks at me like I'm crazy "you expect me to believe you can beat him. Also what you mean by technically you are a bounty hunter."

"Well from what I plan to do I will be either labeled a revolutionary or a pirate. And of the two I rather be a pirate. NOT like the bastards I have mentioned though."

She narrows her eyes "and what DO you plan on doing"

I smile "well first im going to hunt down and kill a Celestial dragon then I'm going to be the pirate king. Both obviously after I gather the majority of my crew"

She then comes down from the shock of what I just said while Coby is passed out.

She then asks "How many crew mates you have"

I smile "I got one" She looks at coby. I laugh "No. Not shrimp. Unfortunately he wants to be a marine"

She looks around "then were are they"

I just point at her "you. I've decided you are going to be my thief. Best part is since I don't care about money you get 80% of what I get while I beat other pirates"

She just ignores the fact I said she was my crew member for the part about money "Do you think you can do 85%"

I scratch my chin. "fine but only after we hit the three million for a boat. Since we will be robing a lot of pirates blind and I really only need enough to feed the crew and repairs. so I gues you can take 85% of my cute as well as the 80% you will make stealing"

She stuck her hand out "deal"

I shake her hand "welcome to pirate my crew then"

She then seems to take in everything that's been said before she yells "YOU TRICKED ME"

I tillt my head. I don't remember tricking her I just remembered making a kind of contract.

I look at her "I.. dont think I tricked you. I remember going over your condition to join my crew."

She looks at me funny. I just ask "what"

"You weren't tricking me since I hate pirates into joining you"

My eyes widened. Now that I think about it it did say somthing about that in her summary.

I frown "darn looks like its just me still then"

She raises an Eyebrow "what do you mean"

I open my mouth about to say her name when I remember she didn't say it. "well before we continue may I please have a name"

She hesitates like she is debating something. "my name is Nami"

I then see a pop up.

A Trustable strange man. (Secret quest)

A somewhat handsome strange up beat man has fallen into her boat claiming to be able to have been able to beat arlong since he was young. Against her better judgment she has decided to take a leap. To see if this man that gives an aura that seems to just screams he will die for her will be able to save her.

Reward 1 Queen when Status affect Dense but not Dumb no longer applies

What the hell. I shake my head ill think about it later I'm explaining . "Well beautiful Nami"

when I say this she blushed and says "are you flirting with me"

I tilt my head "What's flirting. Is it food" I shake my head "doesn't mater Anyway I was saying its just me since I refuse to have you in my crew. If you hate pirates I won't let you become one ever. I won't take away freedom and if you don't have freedom I'll get you it. My sister died never experiencing it. I'll be damned if I let someone suffer like that if I can help it. While I won't look for people like that. That what threvolutionary army is doing, but if they cross my path I will help them even if it sets me back years to my own goals."

She looks at me funny "you sure you want to be a pirate"

I nod "to me being a pirate means. No laws keeping me down. Keeping me from doing what I want. Nothing from being free. The king of the pirates is just the person with the most freedom. I don't believe there's a one piece. I believe that its freedom thats the one piece"

She just stares at me moth agape. then as if taking long thought "If that is what it means to be on your crew then I'll do it. Also I will be your navigator and your thief"

I chuckle "okay kitty"

She growls "dont call me that"

I then hear coby "Don't bother once he gets a nickname for you then you might as well give up if"

I give a bright smile "See little Shrimp gets it"

... "Hey, Kitty"

she looks up from her compass and map she was looking at during the pause "yes.. Damn it"

I chuckle "Where are we headed"

She sighs "A marine base."

Coby freaks out "I know which one that is its the one the pirate hunter Zora is at"

I sit up "is he strong"

Coby looks at me "first it's a she and two she is is a monster as strong as they come. She is a Demon in a human body"

I raise my eyebrow "Well looks like we are getting a nother crew mate Nami."

She looks at me hesitantly before nodding


We arrive at the base and I look at Nami "I assume that you need to get somthing so ill try to hurry so we can leave fast"

She nods after a small pause. I smile she will come around eventually.

I look at coby "Come on little shrimp lets go make you a marine"

He just shakes his head "I don't think I'm ready to be a marine."

I laugh "well if you don't join know you will never be a decent marine"

"Luffy don't you mean good" I look at him confused.

"You want to be someone that catches someone no matter the situation whether its moral or not. Someone who follows the world government blindly and kills all pirates weather they surrender or not"

He looks shocked "What do you mean"

I laugh as I look up and see we are about half way to the entrance of the base "well that is a GOOD marine first and a human after. You seem like someone who will do the right thing FIRST and whats ordered second. so you would be a decent marine. A decent human first and a marine after. The Same thoughts can be used on pirates. A GOOD pirate is one who rapes pillage and plunder like Arlong or Kreeg. A decent pirate can tell and only does it to GOOD marines and GOOD pirates. A decent pirate helps people in need and pillaged the corrupt. Do you understand Cody. I will never kill someone who is decent but I will always kill a Good marine and a Good pirate. We need more decent people in the world and less good ones"

we reach the gate and when we due a pop up is infront of me.

one permanent crew

The curious theif wanted to know more about you. To make sure you weren't like the rest. While she did not believe there are decent pirates. She does now. But she only believes one exists you. She is still weary of you, but now she is willing to give you a shot.

God I love having 200 wisdom still don't know how it effects this but these pop ups really started to be more common when I hit it.

I then jump up on the wall much to Coby's protest. I look around and I see a green haired girl with a Dark green hood covering the top of her head and her thick green hair comes out of the side and goes just below her above average size breasts. She has on a white tanish Collared shirt that was unbuttoned at her mid chest and A green Haramaki and tight fitting black pants. She has clearly toned muscles in her arm but not enough where it looks bulky. Her legs you can't see muscle but can assume that she has some or she just has thick thighs.

I hope down to Coby "come Little Shrimp. She appears to be out side lets go and get a better look."

As we round the bend we see a ladder. Me and Coby look at each other then the wall.

We both look over it to see a pompous prick yelling at a marine "throw her over the wall or I'll tell my father"

The marine takes the girl and chucks her over the fence at the pricks order.

I soru and quickly catch her. Then when I land I set her on her feet.

She looks up "Thanks mister"

I nod "Well looks like we are going to be pirates a lot sooner"

The girl backs up a little "Your a pirate"

I look at her "Not yet. Tell me are all the marines in this base cruel enough to almost kill a kid"

She shakes her head. In response i raise an Eye brow normally from what I know from gramps if the corruption is so visible they are all corrupt. She then starts to explain "no. They are just afraid of captain Morgan"

I nod. "well then i can promise by the end of the day he won't be a problem"

Coby comes and starts to care for her. I smile. "Make sure she is ok, little Shrimp."

Before I jump the wall I hear the girl ask "your name is Little Shrimp"

I laugh as I jump over instantly catching the attention of Zora. "Your the one who was up on that wall just a bit ago"

I nod "oh and the girl is safe." I see her relax. "So how long you been been here for"

"21 days. Why? What does it mater to you"

Her will stat is incredible 250. I decided to awnser her question. "I am looking to challenge all the big fish in the world the warlords.The emperors... The Dragons. I plan to become king to. To do that I need the strongest. While you are not the strongest now. Just looking at you. I believe you can. So I wanted to know if you'd join my pirate crew"

She laughs "not a chance in hell"

I shurg "You are never going to grow stronger if you stay hear in the East doing nothing. I'm only rookie grand line pirate skill level and I could beat you"

She just says "as if"

I sigh "oh well." I start to walk away when she says "Stop"

I stop and turn to her. "What is it"

She looks to the grown and blushes "feed me that rice balls"


We are now at the girls mom's restaurant and Nami even met up with us.

The girl just finished telling us how Zora saved her and her mom.

I look over at Nami "Since you are our navigator where are we headed Nami"

She looks up as if in thought. "orange island"

I nod "ok"

Coby says "isn't that where buggy the clown is. he took over that island"

I scratchmy chin "well if we get his bounty or not we are going to take him out since he is a big name pirate. Either wa-"

I was cut off by a ruckus in the restaurant and as we enter i hear the prick from before yelling "I'm so bored what to do. oh I know ill execute Zora after I have some fun"

I walk up and punch him. Not enough to break through a wall or anything. Coby tries to restrain me with little affect.

Then the prick speaks again "You hit me. You actually hit me. Just wait till I tell my dad about this."

I scowl "no need." Everyone looks at me as I continue "He will be six feet under by the end of the day"


After that I head straight for Zora. I arrive pretty fast.

She looks up "you again. I told you I won't join your pirate crew"

I laugh "well its that or they are going to execute you"

Her eyes widen "But they"

I interrupt "They lied"

She just makes a 'tch' sound the speaks "fine then I'll join you're crew. Just get me my swords."

I nod. Now where should I start. Oh ill start at the top.

I use gear second to make the jump. I land on the edge of the roof and I see a dude with an axe about to hit someone. So he is the captain.

I soru right in front and stop it with one finger his strength is no where near as strong as mine so he has no hope of damaging me because of Tough let alone if I mix it with Haki. I hear gasps all around the roof. Then I hear the prick say "Thats him he is the one who hit me."

hmm I'll do this quickly "All right great captain Morgan. I'll give you a free shot. One free hit"

This seems to enrage him beyond belief. Its pretty funny really. He lefts his axe hand and goes for a slash. Yet when it connects it just stops nothing happened. I frown "Shame seems no one can give me a fight. Well I hope you had a good life."

I flatten my hand and cover it in Haki. Morgan brings his hand up again even more enraged then before.

As he swings it again I thrust forward using gomu gomu black hand spear I made it to quickly hunt but unfortunately its quite effective against humans. My hand spears right through his heart and out his back. He died instantly. "Shame he doesn't have a bounty. Then again I guess I'm a pirate now"

I then look at the prick "Hey prick take me to Zora's swords"

He slowly nods. I look around I see that the faces of the marines are a mix of happiness and shock. "hold up prick"

He freezes, almost like he was suddenly cased in ice. I then say "which one of you is in charge"

One slowly raises his hand. I look to him "ok then there is someone that is joining the marines and as much as I'd love to have him on my crew he is a determined little thing.. So get a hold of Garp the fist and tell him that Luffy said he found someone special." I got half way turned when I remember something "oh and tell I'm in these words Your getting old grandpa. You should retire soon before I make it hard on Seengoku.then he can't blame you"

I then start laughing hard as I see the shock in there face. I then turn and grab the prick and drag him to get the swords.


I walk into the execution yard with the swords. As I do I seethe Coby undoing the rope.

I yell over "don't worry Shrimp I'll get her out"

They both look shocked to see that I'm alive. "Why so shocked."

Coby then points at me "Your hand there is blood"

I look at it to see that there is blood.. oh yah "its captain Morgan's he was weak. I didn't want the chance of him hurting my crew. I don't know where Nami is right now and it would be best to get ride of her biggest threat at the moment"

I then hear Nami's voice "Aw I didn't know you cared so much Luffy"

I smile over to her "Of course the crews life is be for mine. That's how it should be. A captain should always have the crew in mind"

permanent crew

the strange man jumped over the wall and asked you to join his crew. At first you rejected. You would never drop down to be a filthy pirate. But as you thought on his worlds you know that he is right. You have to leave the East for the grand line. So what he happens to be cute or that he truly seems to be a good person or he saved you from execution. This is just for your benefit.

I smile I don't know why and I hate that I can't figure it out no matter how many damn tries I do to solve it, but when I read that they thought I was cute or slightly handsome my haert felt like it skipped a beat for a second. I know its not an illness I'm immune to illness and poisons since I experienced both for the first time. Its the Immunity Ability. Still feels like cheating a little.

As I aproch Zora I hear her speak "I'm joining, but on one condition"

I nod "sure"

She looks shocked "You not going to ask what it is"

I shake my head "If its something I have to get or do I'll do it. So I don't care. What I do care is if you have a dream. So do you?"

She stares at me then nods "Its to be the best swordsman in the world"

I raise an eyebrow "Good I wouldn't have any less. Though I thought that the term was swordswomen for you. Or is the Word gender neutral"

Before Zora could speak Nami who is now standing next to me awnsers after a quick giggle that made my heart skip again. seriously what is this. "Luffy its gender neutral"

I nod at her "thanks" I look back to Zora "Then I will do everything within my power to help you Achieve it. The one thing I'll give up my dream for my crew and their dreams"

Her mouth falls just a little and her cheeks turns slightly red. I hear Nami laugh a little before she spoke "I was a little shocked when he said that to me on the way over. He truly has ever intention to lay down his life if it help." Her cheeks turn red as well while she looks at me. This seen makes my heart feel so fucking weird. The one thing that this system gives me that is negative is the only thing that has to do with my feelings. Even wisdom barely affects my thoughts and feelings. I mean sure compared to the feelings I had with.. Sabo. I shake my head. Either way there nothing compared to that.

I sigh qnd quickly cut the ropes. I look at Coby "ok coby just ask to be in the marines. If they do what I asked you will be a very strong and decent marine"

I then look at Nami and Zora whosecheeksare now there originally colors. "come on I have no clue if they are going to follow us so let's get out of hear before the marines can follow."

They nod and I hear Zora say "Yes Captain"

While Nami says "ok. Luffy."
