1. Chapter 1

Hello everyone! This is BadBoy1992, with another story of my own.

I wasn't really planning to start and write this until after I finish my Pokemon story, but sometimes I get bored of writing that story, so I started writing something else, and as of right now, this one has advanced the farthest, so I have decided to start uploading it.

This story is a big crossover mainly between One Piece, Fairy Tail and Naruto, though, there is a bit of Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic and Dragon Ball in here as well.

The schedule for this story is once a month, or better said, every 5th in the month. The Pokemon will stay on every 10th and 25th every month.

Warning:

The main characters in this story are Luffy, Natsu and Naruto after which comes everyone else. The three of them will be extremely powerful from the start so if you don't like that, and would want them to start weak and then become stronger as time goes, you should skip this story as you won't like it.

This story is also harem story, and Luffy, Natsu and Naruto will have their harems, but will also have some situations with woman who won't be with none of the three. So again, skip the story if you are not a fan of that.

If you are not a fan of a lot of destruction, death and dismemberment, along with some heavy sex scenes, though, it wont be very descriptive, then you won't like the story. There will be character death, lemons, cheating, nymphomaniacs all over the place maybe even incest if there is a situation for that.

I'm giving this warning so that no one will start to read the story and then when they reach a part which they don't like, they will start to write crap in reviews, so I'm saving your time and mine as well by giving this warning.

Now, on to the story.

Chapter 1:

In a small place called Foosha Village, which is on Dawn Island, on the part of the World called East Blue, lives a 17 year old boy called Monkey D. Luffy, who ever since he was a 7 year-old-boy, wanted to become a pirate, and travel all the way to end of the Grand Line to find the greatest treasure in the World, the One Piece, which would make him a Pirate King, only the second in history with the first being called Gol D. Roger.

For the past 10 years, Luffy has trained himself as much as he could so he can be prepared for the day he starts his journey.

At first he was trained by his grandfather, and then at some point, his grandpa took him from the Village, and up on the mountain, where he left him with the Mountain bandits, who took care of him.

That's when Luffy met another boy who is about three years older than him, and that boys name is Portgas D. Ace.

At first the two didn't get along very well, as Ace didn't want to hang out with Luffy since he thought he is just a little kid, and was a little creped out by Luffy's look, which quite frankly, scared Ace, though he would never admit it. Ace also had another friend called Sabo, with whom he spent a lot of time, and they were also planning to one day leave Dawn Island, and travel the world as Pirates.

It took a while, but eventually Ace and Sabo accepted Luffy after there was a skirmish between Ace, Sabo and some pirates, which ended with Ace and Sabo being captured and then Luffy came in to save them, ending up electrocuting the pirates in the process.

Ace and Sabo were of course surprised with what Luffy did, and after they escaped from the place where they fought the pirates, and came back to where they live, the two older boys questioned Luffy.

Luffy ended up explaining how few months ago, when a certain Pirate crew was visiting the Foosha Village, he ended up accidently eating a Devil Fruit which the crew's captain was carrying with him in a wooden box.

Luffy also said that he doesn't know exactly which DF he ate, since not even the crew knew, but it was obvious that it gave him the ability to use and control Lightning and Thunder, and has also changed his appearance a little.

The Pirate crew thought for a moment that it could be a Goro Goro no Mi, which is a lighting Logia DF, but then they remembered Luffy's appearance and immediately ruled that out, and realized it was a Zoan DF. Though, which one, they never found out, not even after they checked DF encyclopedia cover to cover.

Ever since that night when Luffy saved the two older boys, the three became best friends, and sometime later, they shared cups of sake, and became brothers in all but blood.

Unfortunately, that didn't last long, as one day, Sabo was in an accident when the small boat he was using to start his journey as a pirate, was shot down by a ship on which was one of the Celestial Dragons, one of the descendants of the creators of the World government.

Sabo wanted to escape from his family, who kept coming for him, but he ended up dead, at least that's what Luffy and Ace assumed after they saw Sabo's boat destroyed. It won't be until over a decade later, when it will be discovered that Sabo is in fact, still alive.

After Sabo's apparent death, Luffy and Ace stayed together in the mountains, and trained together, until the day after Ace became 17 years-old, when he started his journey to become a pirate.

That was the day that Luffy stayed alone, but apparently, the fate, or maybe it was some other higher power, had other plans, so in a span of week, two boys came to Foosha Village, one 13 year-old boy with blonde hair and three whisker marks on each chick, which everyone found almost as weird as Luffy's look, and the other was a 18 year-old with pink hair, which, again, many found weird as none has ever seen a guy with pink hair.

The three met each other, and somehow became friends, after which, the two new boys, whose names were Naruto and Natsu, even agreed to join Luffy as his first crew mates when he becomes a pirate.

The three spent the next three year's getting to know each other, as well as each other's power, and found it amusing that in a way, each of them has some connection to some beast.

In Naruto's case, he had a Nine-Tailed Fox sealed inside of him, in Natsu's case he was a Dragon Slayer, and in Luffy's case, it turned out that he ate a Zoan DF, which allows him to transform into some huge ass, human/dragon hybrid, with blue skin, two giant blue dragon like wings on his back and two horns, which Luffy had from the moment he ate the DF, coming out of his forehead, and can manipulate lightning.

Right now, Luffy, Naruto and Natsu were standing at the shore, and were about to start their journey to the Reverse Mountain, and then across the Grand line to its end, where the Island with One Piece is.

Luffy is 17 years old boy, he is 6 foot 5 inches tall with relatively bulky and muscled body, has unruly black hair which is covering his ears and falls a little across his face. From his forehead, there are two white horn coming out, which go straight up, then curve a little to the front, and then up again for about five inches, after which they curve again, backwards for about an inch. Slightly on top and more on the back of his head, Luffy has a straw hat, which was a gift to him from Shanks. Luffy also has dark blue eyes, beneath which there are two black lines going from below his eyes, across the cheek's and come to the jaw, somewhere in the middle between the ears and the chin. There is another black line going from below his lower lip downward to the chin. He wears dark blue pants, black boots, black muscle T-shirt with opened neck, black and dark blue belt, as well as black and dark blue glows on both of his hands. And finally, he has a long double-edged sword strapped on the left side of his pants.

Naruto is a 16 year old boy, who is about 6 foot tall, yellow hair falling almost to his shoulders, with two bangs falling on each side of his face, and a third bang falling between his blue eyes. He's wearing black pants, with black boots. On his upper body he has an orange long-sleeved blouse that is zipped at the front, and a black cape wrapped around his neck that goes down to about his waist level.

And finally, Natsu is a 21 year-old man, who is as tall as Luffy, standing at 6 foot 5 inches, though slightly less bulky. He has long pink hair tied in a bun on the back of his head, as well as pink beard that covers most of his face, but doesn't go too far below his jaw, he also has black, slitted eyes, wears white pants tied with black belt, with black boots, while on the upper half, he wears a black sleeveless muscle shirt, and black cape attached by buttons on top of his shirt just below the neck. Finally, on his right arm he has his old guild symbol, and he has both of his arms wrapped in bandages all the way up to above his elbows, and that includes his fingers as well.

As they were making last preparations, and were stocking their small boat with food, water and other provisions, many people from the village, which Luffy knew since he was a baby, and who Naruto and Natsu met when they first came to a Dawn Island, were there to say good bye to them.

"Good luck on your journey boys," said a smiling, green haired woman, whose name is Makino, and who is maybe about 10 years older than Luffy and Naruto, and about six years older than Natsu. Not that that has prevented her from giving all three of them a very hot send away present last night. Of course, even if someone was to find out that she had sex with two underage boys at the same time, along with another one slightly older, no one would care, since Makino, as nice and as loved by everyone she is, is also a well-known nymphomaniac. "And be careful with what you're doing. I don't want to read newspaper and find out something happened to you." She added with a stern voice.

The two teens and one young man, looked at Makino, and smiled at her, before Luffy said. "Don't worry, Makino, nothing will happen to any of us, as we all have our goal's in life, and we will not allow ourselves to fail before we reach those goals."

"I know, Luffy," Makino said, with a smile on her face, though there was also sadness seen in there. "But I can't help but worry for the three of you, just like I worry about Ace."

All three boys smiled at Makino, and then, after they were finished with packing their stuff in the boat, they boarded it, and were off on their adventure, while waiving back at Makino, and the other villagers, who were waiving back and cheering for them.

"There they went." Makino sighed.

Next to her a village mayor, an older man called Woop Slap, stood silently for a few seconds as he didn't know if he should be angry that there are more criminals coming out of their small village, or scared at what would happen when Luffy's grandfather comes to visit, or hears that Luffy actually went and became a pirate.

"I'll tell you one thing, Makino," Woop Slap said. "I defiantly don't want to be here when Garp finds out that Luffy actually went and became a pirate."

"I wouldn't worry about that," Makino said with a smile. "He knew that Luffy will became a pirate all along."

"Actually, I think he thought that he would be able to make Luffy change his mind, and become a marine instead of pirate," Woop Slap said. "And now not only Ace, but also Luffy and those two boys went and became pirates, and I don't just fear what Garp would say or do, but I also fear what those three will do to the world, considering what I've seen them being capable of doing."

Makino didn't say anything to that, as she also knew perfectly well what Luffy, Naruto and Natsu were capable of doing, and she wasn't referring to their skills in bad. She knew that they have some issues because of the things that happened in their lives, with Luffy never really getting over his desire for revenge against those who killed Sabo, and Natsu and Naruto, because of the things that led them to leave their home regions and come on Dawn Island in the first place.

As the three new pirates left Foosha Village, they traveled for the rest of that day, and through the night with no problem. They were making good time on their way to the first stop on their journey, which, according to Luffy, who is acting as a sort of a navigator, is supposed to be in Shells Town, which has a Marine base, so they decided right away not to cause trouble so early on their journey, since it's not worth it.

On the second day of the traveling, while Luffy and Natsu were taking a nap, and Naruto is awake and watching where they were going, Naruto noticed another small boat approaching them, and on them appeared to be three man.

Naruto thought about telling Natsu and Luffy, but since he knows that they are heavy sleepers and hard to awake, he decided to live them be, and take care of any problems by himself.

That is, if there is any problem, as he doesn't know who the three people on the other boat are, and maybe there won't cause him any trouble.

Few minutes later, that way of thinking went straight to hell, because as soon as the other boat approached Naruto and the others, Naruto saw that all three man, who by the way, look ridiculous, at least in Naruto's opinion, they all have guns pointed at Naruto, as well as Natsu and Luffy, who were sleeping peacefully.

"You better have a damn good reason to point those guns at us, because if you don't, it will not end well for you three." Naruto said in a voice just loud enough for the three man to hear him, while his eyes glowed red and turned to slits.

The three man almost backed away a little bit in fear, but regained their composure, and laughed for a few moments, before one of them, the one with pink hair, said.

"Our names are Danny, Denny and Donny, and we are known as the Hyena Three." He introduced them to Naruto, who looked at them with deadpan expression.

"Of all the ridiculous names…" Naruto thought in his head, while Kyuubi was laughing his ass of inside Naruto head.

"And they even came up with the name for their little group." Kyuubi said, while laughing.

"I don't give a damn about your names," Naruto said with an edge in his voice, while trying to ignore Kyuubi's laughing, thought it was not easy as he was getting on his nerves along with these three morons, who think they can just point the guns at him and his best friends! "I want to know what do you want, and why are you pointing guns at us?"

The three man frowned at Naruto, until one of the other two said. "We are a part of a pirate crew, and were on the way to a nearby island to meet with the rest of the crew, when we saw your boat, and decided to take everything valuable you have."

"And if you want to live, along with your two friends, then you will give us everything you have on that boat, and that includes any money, food and everything valuable you might have." The one with pink hair said.

Naruto looked them for a few moments like they have fallen from Mars, and then before they could even blink, he disappeared from where he was standing on his boat, and appeared right behind the three morons on their boat.

Naruto then grabbed two of them by the back of their heads, and before any of them could react, his hands glowed orange, and he squeezed their heads.

The squeeze alone was very strong, but when Naruto used chakra to cover his hands, it was so strong that both of their heads exploded in blood, gore, and brain matter.

The dead and headless bodies of two of the three Hyena Three, fell on their both, and just then the third one noticed what happened, and his gun fell from his hand, and he fell on his knees, after which he started puking his guts out because of what just happened to his two brothers, while at the same time as he was puking, tears were flowing from his eyes and down his cheeks.

"You have two options," Naruto said after he let the guy puke for a few minutes.

As he said that, the only surviving member of the Hyena Three, looked at Naruto, and was shaking like a leaf in fear and rage.

"Option number one," Naruto started again. "You tell me everything about this pirate crew you three were apart off, and where this island you were going to is, and if you do, I will kill you quickly just like your brothers."

The guy started shaking even more, and Naruto noticed that he actually pissed in his pants.

"It's a good thing he didn't piss himself on our boat." Naruto thought in his head, while Kyuubi was also thinking to himself at how good of a job he did in training Naruto if he can scare people half to death just by threatening them.

"Option number two," Naruto went on. "You refuse to tell me what I want to know, and then I will torture you until he tell me everything, then I will torture you some more for making me waste my time, and only then will I kill you."

This time, the guy actually took a crap in his pants, and Naruto had to back away a little, since his sense of smell was higher than normal because of Kyuubi being sealed inside of him, and because of the changes he went through after he left his former village.

The guy was looking at Naruto, thinking that he must be a demon of some kind, and didn't even seem to notice that he has soiled himself in his pants.

It didn't take him long to realize that Naruto is serious, and then he decided that quick and painless death is always better then slow and painful one, so for the next few minutes he told Naruto about the Eldoraggo, who is a captain of the crew he and his brothers were a part of.

He also said that Eldoraggo is obsessed with gold, and that he was looking for a legendary Isle of Gold, and has actually found it few hours from where they are right now.

Naruto listed to everything the guy said, and when he was done, Naruto aimed his right index finger at the guy, and then fired an orange beam from his finger which flew straight through the guys' head, killing him instantly.

Naruto sighed, and then picked up what little gold and food the Hyena Three had on their boat, and went back to his own, after which he left the gold and food on the corner of a boat, before he went and fired a simple fire jutsu he learned from Kyuubi, which set the enemy boat on fire.

"Wasn't that a little too much?" Naruto heard Luffy's voice from behind him, so he turned around and looked at one of his best friends and currently the captain of the new pirate crew he is a part of.

"Would you have done it differently?" Naruto asked back, and Luffy was quiet for a few moments, thinking about the question, while his eyes were still closed as if he was sleeping.

"No, I would have probably done the same thing." Luffy said, without opening his eyes.

"Then there is no need to question me." Naruto said, and went to sit on the same spot he was on before the three brothers interrupted their journey, while the boat was back on track.

"Are we going to that Island that guy mentioned?" Luffy asked.

"Do you want to?" Naruto asked back.

"Sure, why not," Luffy replied back. "If there is really an Island of gold, we will be as rich as those bastards in Mary Geoise, and even if there isn't one, we can just take everything that pirate crew has."

As it was decided, Naruto changed the course, and they went toward the east, where they knew the island was supposed to be since that's where one of the brothers pointed before his death.

While Naruto was dealing with the brothers and had the talking with Luffy, Natsu was apparently sleeping, and didn't move a muscle or said anything, but Naruto and Luffy weren't fooled and knew he was awake but just quiet.

He thought about what Naruto did, and what Luffy said, how he would have done the same thing, and after some thinking, he realized that he as well would have done the same thing.

Now that he thought about it, it was funny, but even more then funny it was sad, considering how until three years ago, he never would have thought about killing another human being, even if they were his worst enemy, but that all changed the day his best friends and the only family he ever had besides Igneel, were all killed by Acnologia on Tenrou Island, and he wasn't able to do anything.

In fact, the only reason he was even alive and not in heaven with his family is because during the battle against Acnologia he was somehow launched in the air from the explosion and flew all the way from the island and into the ocean, where he passed out just moments after Acnologia used breath attack to destroy the entire Tenrou Island.

When he woke up, Natsu found himself in the boat, with Ultear and the pink haired girl from Grimoire Heart, he thought her name was Meredy. Apparently they fished him out of the ocean, and were now on the way back to the mainland.

That was the day everything changed for Natsu and his happy personality was all but gone, died with his family and friends.

Natsu also swore that day that he will kill Acnologia no matter what even if it's the last thing he ever did, but he also decided that he can't go back to the guild, as he won't be able to face the other guild members who were not on the Island, and tell them that everyone else is dead, and that he is the only one alive.

The last thing he decided was to live Earthland, and to go and explore the outside world, and train himself to the brink of death until he is strong enough, when he will come back and kill Acnologia, thus avenging his family and friends.

And so, he told Ultear and Meredy to tell no one that he is alive, that they never saw him after they escaped Tenrou, and that for everyone, Natsu Dragneel has died on Tenrou Island along with the others.

Ultear wanted to protest, but one look from Natsu, and she literally saw herself burn to death until there wasn't even ash left, so she decided to keep quiet and said neither she nor Meredy will say anything about him.

"I'm a Dragon Slayer who was unable to slay a Dragon, and had to watch my friends die. I can't go back to the guild and face the others, not until I'm strong enough to kill Acnologia and avenge everyone."

And with those parting words, Natsu walked away from Ultear and Meredy, and left Earthland, heading north toward the part of the world he has never heard anything about other than few rumors here and there that there is no magic out there, but that there are other types of power.

Later, when he came to Foosha Village, Natsu would realize that there is magic in the air, it's just that no one can use.

As Natsu finished remembering about his past, it has surprisingly already been several hours since the run in with the enemy pirate crew, and Natsu heard Naruto calling him and Luffy to get up as they were approaching the Island they were looking for.

XXX

As the three were approaching closer and closer to the island, they saw smoke coming from it, as well as some dead bodies on the shore. On top of that, they were able to hear some shouting, sword clashing and the sounds of gun and rifle shooting.

Docked on the shore, the three pirates were able to see a whole slew of pirate ships among which, one of them is attached to a Plesiosaur, who is probably dragging it.

"It looks like there is a war going on here between several pirate crews," Luffy commented, as their small boat docket near the shore and the three jumped from it, landing near several dozen dead bodies of pirates.

"Yeah," Natsu agreed, while rubbing the sleep from his eyes, and yawned a little. "I guess they are all after the gold that guy mentioned earlier."

Naruto didn't comment anything, but noticed some movement from one of the ships, the one which has a shape of a heart and has painted hearts all over it. "Talk about the ugly." Naruto commented in his head, and Kyuubi groaned as he saw an eyesore through Naruto's eyes.

Naruto disappeared in a burst of speed, making Luffy and Natsu look at where he run of to, and saw him standing at one of the ships, looking at something on the deck, so the two also went to see what Naruto has found.

When Natsu and Luffy arrived on the ridiculous looking ship, they saw Naruto standing over a boy with pink hair and round-frame glasses, who looks like he is few years younger than Luffy and Naruto.

"Who's the kid" Natsu asked, as he was looking at the boy, who looked like he is about to start crying in fear.

"I don't know," Naruto replied. "I spotted something from the shore, and came to check it out, and found him."

Luffy then asked. "So, kid, who are you? And what are you doing on this pirate ship?"

"M-My name is K-Koby," the kid stuttered his name. "And I'm not a k-kid. I'm around the same age as you guys." He added with some bravery, which soon went through the window so to say, when Luffy, Naruto and Natsu narrowed their eyes at him, and Koby backed away in fear.

Naruto sighed. "I doubt that, but never mind that now. Will you tell us what you are doing here?"

"I-I was captured by one of the pirate crews that are now fighting on this Island," Koby started explaining on how he ended up on a pirate ship. "The captain of this ship is called Alvida, and she made me a chore boy on the ship and refused to let me go after I made mistake on boarding it about two years ago.

"I can't even escape as I'm week and I have no skill, and she is not someone who would just let me go easily even if I do escape, as she would hunt me down and kill me."

Naruto and Natsu groaned in disbelief, while Luffy just looked at the kid with a raised eyebrow.

After a few moments of silence, Luffy said. "Fine, I guess we can take you to Shells Town since it's our next destination, but first tell us what's going on on this Island. Why are there all these pirate crews killing each other?"

Koby perked up when he heard Luffy say that they will take him to Shells Town, and then sighed when he heard a question.

"They all heard the legend about the gold that a pirate called Woonan, left here years ago, and somehow all ended up coming here at the same time to take it," Koby explained.

"And now they are killing each other to see who will get to it in the end." Naruto said, and Koby nodded.

"That's about it." Koby said.

"So, do we join the battle, or we wait for them to kill each other and take out the remaining few before we take the gold, if there is any gold, that is?" Natsu asked.

"Hm," Luffy hmed, and after few moments, he asked Koby. "How many among them have bounties on their heads?"

Naruto, Natsu and Koby raised their eyebrows at Luffy's question, and after several moments, Koby answered. "Well, there are seven pirate crews here, and each crew's captain has a bounty on their head. And there are several others who also have bounties, but are not captains. There is one crew called Trump Pirates, and I think there are like five members of the crew including their captain who have bounties on their heads."

"That's good," Luffy said with a small smirk, and the others looked at him, before Natsu said.

"You want us to capture them and take the bounties on their heads." It was a statement, not really a question, but Luffy nodded.

"Yes," Luffy said. "Which is why I want to capture them alive, and not dead, as the government drops the bounties by 30% if they are dead. But if they are alive, we can take the full bounties."

"That' actually not a bad idea." Naruto said, and Natsu agreed.

"Are you guy's bounty hunters?" Koby asked.

"No, we are pirates," Luffy answered and Koby's jaw dropped and his eyes widened.

"P-Pirates!" Koby squeaked out.

"Yeah," Luffy said. "We only started yesterday from my home village, so we still don't have a ship, or a Jolly Roger, and there are only three of us, but trust me, we are enough to deal with any crew in East Blue, and many of the crews on the Grand Line."

"And since we are new, we can use the opportunity that the marines don't know about us and cash in some heads for an easy money." Natsu added.

"I-I though pirates don't capture other pirates and hand them over to the marines." Koby said, as he was surprised.

"Well, they usually don't as marines won't pay other pirates for the bounties even if they were to hand over some heads, so pirates mostly just kill each other," Luffy explained. "But sometimes new pirate crews do this to earn themselves some money so they can buy or build a ship, and so they can have for anything else they need."

The three pirates then decided to split up, and take care of the pirates, while capturing the ones with the bounties.

Koby helped them by showing them the bounty posters of the ones who have them, as apparently for some reason, Alvida has a bounty poster of every pirate in East Blue.

"She must want to keep an eye on the competition." Naruto said as he, Natsu and Luffy were looking at the bounty posters of the pirates who are on the Isle of Gold, and were trying to memorize them.

Koby was just standing on the side.

"Koby," Natsu called Koby, who looked at him after he heard his name called. "Take all the bounty posters that Alvida has, and any personal belongings you have, and go to our boat. Then wait for us there. This shouldn't take long."

After that, Natsu, Luffy and Naruto left Alvida's ship, by jumping of off it and landed on the shore, after which they went in different directions to kill and capture some pirates, while Koby stayed behind, and did as Natsu told him, while hoping that the three will be ok, and won't get killed, because if they do end up killed, he will most likely follow them, as either Alvida will kill him if she survives the war, or some other crew will kill him if they have no use for him.

After Luffy, Natsu and Naruto split up, Luffy went straight ahead, while Natsu went on the left side of the Island, and Naruto on the right, as they could hear the noise of the battle from all three sides.

Not long after he split from his two friends, Luffy came upon the sight of a battle between two pirate crews, and after he looked at some of the members, he recognized the captains of the crews from the posters Koby showed him and the others.

The first captain he recognized is Billy, the captain of the Yes Pirates, who is also known as the Orca Killer, at least according to the poster that Luffy saw.

Billy is a tall guy, probably over 7 feet tall, thought he was not very muscular, and was very ugly. He has a cut across his right eye, and down his cheek, which doesn't really help him to look better when you add it to the rotting teeth one could see when Billy opens his mouth. He doesn't wear any shirt, but has arm guards on both of his arms from the wrists up to his elbows, and wears black pants, which look very old as there are rips all over them along with some cuts.

Luffy also noticed that in the battle he is currently in against the captain of the other Pirate crew, he is using a katana with a green hilt, and a black guard between the hilt and the blade.

The sword looked familiar to Luffy, and he was sure he knew which one it is, but he couldn't exactly remember, though he was sure it is a named sword. Luffy knows about named swords because there is a blacksmith who leaves near Foosha Village who is so obsessed with swords that he has spent a great deal of his life trying to find all named swords, and even has a book with the pictures of all the named swords in the world.

It is through the research of the named swords that the old blacksmith found, that he was able to create one of them, which he then gifted to Luffy, as he was sure Luffy will make good use of it. It is the same sword that Luffy now carries with him.

The second pirate captain Luffy recognized is called Ganzack, and is a captain of Ganzack Pirates.

Ganzack is a normal sized man, who wears a red shirt, blue pants, and a blue cape. Ganzack has purple hair tied into a pony tail and a purple beard. On top of his head is a black pirate hat with his jolly roger on it.

Luffy also noticed that just like Billy, Ganzack is using a named sword, and this one, Luffy easily recognized as it is not just named but also cursed as well, and its name is Shichiseiken.

The Shichiseiken is considered to be the world's most beautiful sword and a valuable treasure, despite its cursed legends. It's a two handed double edged sword, with an eight-petaled design guard and a somewhat elaborate hilt and a red tassel at the end. The blade itself is emerald green, with a wavy design and seven glowing points spread evenly across it; these design glow green when the blade is active.

As Luffy was watching the battle, he noticed that Ganzack has an advantage over Billy, but not so much because he seems to be more skilled in swordsmanship, but because Shichiseiken gives immense power to its wielder, and heals any wounds that Billy inflicts on Ganzack, so as much as Billy is trying, he won't be able to defeat Ganzack unless he is much more skilled then his opponent, which he is not.

Luffy looked at the other members of the two crews, and saw they are just killing each other, without showing any real fighting style, or swordsmanship, and none of them seem to have any weapon that is worth something, or any Devil Fruit powers.

Luffy looked back at the captains, and saw that Billy has been defeated, and Ganzack is standing over him with an insane look on his face, which Luffy knew it is because of the effects of the Shichiseiken.

Knowing that if Billy dies the bounty on his head will drop significantly, Luffy decided to interfere, so he pulled his sword, and just as Ganzack was about to kill Billy, Luffy disappeared from where he was standing, and appeared in front of Ganzack, blocking the slash that would have killed Billy.

Luffy's sudden appearance shocked everyone who were close, and stopped the battle between pirates, who all looked at him.

"Who the hell are you," Ganzack asked after few moments of looking at Luffy in surprise. His voice sounded angry and deranged, and Luffy actually wondered how much of it is because of the influence of the sword he is wielding and how much is his real personality.

"I'm someone interested in the bounties on your heads," Luffy replied, while holding his sword nonchalantly, while Ganzack was pushing with his own, trying to overpower Luffy. "Which is why I interfered, as if you kill Billy here, then I will get 30% less of his actually bounty."

"You damn brat, do you know who I am," Ganzack yelled, and pulled his sword back and then the sword got surrounded in green flames and he swinged at Luffy again, this time with more power, as he wanted to cut clean through Luffy's sword, and kill Luffy at the same time.

"Your name is Ganzack," Luffy said, as he again blocked Ganzack's slash with little trouble. "You are captain of the Ganzack Pirates, and you have 10 mil bounty on your head. That's all that matters to me, nothing else."

Ganzack sneered at Luffy. "Well, you might want to know that I'm the strongest pirate in East Blue, and with this beautiful sword in my hands, I'm invincible!" Ganzack yelled, and started swinging his sword at Luffy, and tried to cut of his head, or any limbs before he gets to his head.

"You are neither strongest pirate in East Blue, not you are invincible," Luffy said, as he blocked another slash from Ganzack, and then in a burst of speed, he slashed at Ganzack, and cut open his torso, which started spilling blood all over the place, and nearly brought Ganzack to his knees, but due to the influence of his sword, Ganzack's wound healed quickly and the blood stopped flowing from it.

"What you are, is insane," Luffy said again, not really bothered that the wound he inflicted on Ganzack just healed itself. "You are week minded, and have no power at all. You have allowed your sword to control your mind until it completely corrupted you. That sword you are using is a cursed sword, of great power and ability, but only someone with strong mind can use it to its full potential without being affected by its curse, and you are not that person."

As soon as he finished his speech, and before anyone could react or even see what's happening, Luffy cut of Ganzack's right hand, right above the wrist, and the hand, along with Shichiseiken fell on the floor, with Ganzack following after and fell on his knees, while holding his right arm with his left right above where it was cut off.

Not wanting him to bleed to death, Luffy grabbed Ganzack's hand, right where it was cut off, and his hand got surrounded in blue electricity, which cauterized Ganzack's stump, making him scream in pain for a few moments, and then his eyes rolled back into the back of his head, and he passed out.

Luffy sighed, and then turned around and saw that Billy has also passed out from the wounds he got from Ganzack.

This only left few dozen no named pirates from the two crews who just had both of their captains defeated, and since none of them had bounties on their heads, Luffy decided that they have no value, so in another burst of speed, he disappeared, and two seconds later dozens body parts of now dead pirates flew all over the place, as blood flowed from where they were cut, and created pools of blood under the dead bodies and body parts.

"Well, that takes care of that," Luffy said, as he flicked his sword to clean of all the blood, before he returned it to its guard on the left side of his body.

Luffy then picked up Shichiseiken, and then the named sword that Billy was using along with the guard for Billy's sword, and also sheeted them next to his own. After he picked Billy and Ganzack by their hands, he started walking back to the shore, while dragging the two captains without care if they get few more injuries here and there, as they won't be life threatening.

On the right side of the island, where Naruto went after he split up from Luffy and Natsu, he run into three way battle between Tulip Pirates, Gally pirates and El Eldoraggo's crew, and among them, Naruto recognized four people with the bounties on their heads, them being the captains of the three crews which are Yurikah, the captain of Tulip Pirates, Gally, the captain of Gally Pirates, and Eldoraggo, the captain of Gold Pirates. The only other pirate with a bounty in the three crews is Golass, who is a mercenary, but is apparently working with Eldoraggo.

Naruto watched the battle for a few minutes, and saw that none of them, including the ones with the bounties on their heads are worth his time, so just stood on the side and watched as the three crews' just killed off each other.

After about 20 more minutes of waiting, and after Naruto saw that the only ones left alive or in battle condition are the three captains and Golass, along with few other members of each crew, who are incapacitated, he decided to just send some Shadow Clones to deal with the ones with bounties before they kill each other.

Naruto created four Shadow Clones for four targets, and they rushed at unsuspected pirates, and each clone punched his target right in the face, sending them flying dozens of meters away from them.

While Yurikah and Gally were rolling on the ground, and were actually sent much farther then Eldoraggo and Golass, the captain of Gold Pirates and the mercenary managed to bounce of the ground, and landed on their legs, or better said, Eldoraggo landed on his legs, and was only dripping blood from his busted lip and nose, as for Golass, he was on his knees and was holding his face, which was bleeding a lot as it seems that the punch from Naruto's Shadow Clone opened a wound right next to his right eye.

Two of the Shadow Clones which punched Yurikah and Gally went after them, then when they were closing in on their lying bodies, which were barely conscious, the two jumped in the air, and did a front flip while up there, and then fell right on top of the two pirate captains, with their right knees first and drove them straight into the stomach of Yurikah and Gally, which made both of them fold a little, legs and head up, and back into the ground, and then they spit out blood from their mouths.

Few seconds later, both captains were passed out, half buried into the ground from the vicious attack by Naruto Clones which were standing next to them.

"Well, that was easy," said the real Naruto, as he was leaning on the tree, and looking at Eldoraggo and Golass, who were still trying to get ahold of themselves.

The two managed to look up, and saw two clones that punched them coming toward them, and also saw the real one in the background leaning on the tree and looking like he is without a care in the world.

"W-Who the f-fuck are you," Eldoraggo managed to spit out, while glaring at the real Naruto, but also at the two clones who were coming toward him and Golass at the normal pace and without hurry? "I haven't seen you with any of the other crew's earlier, so where did you come from?"

"Oh, I'm not a member of any of the crews that are in the middle of the war for the gold on this island," Naruto said. "I'm actually a part of a crew that started out yesterday, and was on the way to Shells Town, when we accidently run into some members of your crew, some three brothers, and after some questioning, they told us about their crew, about you and how you are here for the gold, so my crew decided to some here and check it out.

"Though I admit that we weren't expecting any other crews." Naruto finished his explanation.

"And you are attacking us to get to gold, right?" Eldoraggo hissed at Naruto, but Naruto didn't even blink at Eldoraggo's dangerous voice.

"Yeah, that was the plan at first," Naruto confirmed. "But then when we found out about all the pirates that are fighting here and that about a dozen of you have bounties, we decided to capture you alive, and then hand you over to the marines, so that we can get some quick cash."

"And you think I will lose just like that and allow you to hand me over to the marines." Eldoraggo made a question sound like a statement, while glaring at the original Naruto, but also keeping watch over the two clones which are now standing about a dozen meters from him and Golass.

"It's not like you can do anything to stop me," Naruto said, completely calm. "I have watched the battle between you and the others for about 20 minutes before I sent my clones, and I haven't seen anything that will make me doubt in my ability to take you all down."

"We'll see about that," Eldoraggo yelled, and stood up straight, before he was surrounded with yellow aura, and then he opened his mouth and fired a bluish white beam of sound from it, which went straight at the original Naruto as that's where Eldoraggo fired it assuming that if he can take out the original the clones would just fall apart.

What Eldoraggo wasn't expecting was for the clone that was in front of him to vanish in a burst of speed, before he reappeared in between the original and the beam, and then with a simple flick of the back of right hand, he slapped the beam and sent it slaying into the sky where it eventually vanished.

Eldoraggo just stood there after he saw this, and his jaw has practically dropped on the ground, and his eyes were bulging out.

"Is that all," the clone asked, and then he disappeared again, and punched Eldoraggo in the gut, making him fold in half and spit out blood from his mouth.

Naruto then pulled his right hand from Eldoraggo's gut, and grabbed him by the face, and pushed him backwards, which made the back of Eldoraggo's head hit the ground, and caused a small crater to be formed from the force of the impact.

With his head now practically buried underground, that back of his skull most likely cracked, Eldoraggo's legs which went up as his head went down, fell on the ground, and Eldoraggo stayed there now completely unconscious.

The clone sighed. "Pathetic." He then looked and saw that the other clone has already taken care of Golass, and was dragging his body, griping him by the ankle.

"Well, that takes care of that," the original said, as he stood up from the place under the tree, and walked toward the shore, with the clones dragging the bodies of three pirate captains, and one mercenary. He didn't even bother to kill few other pirates who were still alive from all three crews, as they are not a threat, and will most likely die soon, as they were all injured a lot and if not threated, they will die by the end of the day.

On the left side of the Island, where Natsu went, he encountered who he recognized as Trump Pirates and Alvida's Pirates, and from what he was able to see, it would seem that Alvida's crew was defeated as Natsu saw her lying on the ground, still alive, but unable to continue to battle.

The rest of Alvida's crew also seem to be defeated or dead as there is no battling, and the pirates that are still standing are seen with the captain of the Trump Pirates who Natsu recognized from the wanted poster, and he also recognized four other members of that crew who also have bounties.

Seeing as one crew is already defeated, and there is only one left, Natsu decided to get it over with, and deal with them immediately, so he won't waste time.

As Natsu was approaching to several hundred members of Trump Pirates led by Bear King, they spotted him, and all of them at the same time glared at him.

"Who are you," Bear King asked, as he moved in front of his crew, and stared at Natsu, immediately on high alert, as he was feeling something inside of him telling him to run away and not look behind as it could very well be the last thing he will ever do? "Are you another member of Alvida's crew who she was keeping secret, or are you with some other crew?"

"Oh, I'm not a member of Alvida's crew," Natsu said after he stopped at about 20 meters from Bear King, and was looking at him with a boring look on his face, which made Bear King and some other pirates who noticed it, angry, as they assumed that this new guy is underestimating them, and they don't like that.

"I'm a member of a completely different crew who has arrived on this Island not even an hour ago," Natsu continued. "My crewmates and I heard about the gold that was supposed to be hidden on this Island and decided to check it out and see if the legend was true, but then when we came and found out about all the pirates who are already here, fighting for the gold, we decided to capture those with the bounties and hand them over to the marines."

Natsu stopped speaking then, and was looking at all of them with narrowed eyes, letting it all sink in, and see how they will react.

He was not disappointed when he heard Bear King and a bunch of other growl at him.

"Who the fuck do you think you are," Bear King bellowed at the top of his voice! "You think you can just waltz in here, threaten us like that, and hope you will come out alive! "Do you know who we are?"

"Yes, I heard about you crew and saw your bounties, and I'll tell you, I'm not very impressed." Natsu said, looking even more bored then before, while Bear King and the others looked even angrier, which made Natsu smile inward as his taunting was working.

Natsu was thinking at that moment how he was never one to taunt his enemies, and if Acnologia didn't attack and killed his family, he probably never would have started doing it in the first place, but that was long time ago, and he has changed a lot in the past three years, and has started doing things he never did before.

"We will show you what we are capable of, and before you die, you will realize the mistake you made by challenging us," Bear King growled, but wasn't yelling. That is, until he looked behind himself at his crewmates and shouted. "KILL HIM!"

Every member of Trump Pirates except Bear King, and the four other strongest members of the crew, who also all have bounties, run at Natsu, some of them with swords high up and ready to cut him in pieces, and others without weapons but ready to use their fists to beat him to death.

Natsu looked at them, completely calm and unimpressed by their shouting and desire to kill him, and just lifted his left arm up, and to the right side, with all of his fingers next to each other, and then simply called his attack.

"Fire Dragon King: Slash!" Natsu said, and then moved his hand from right to left, like he was slashing with a sword from one side to the other, and from his hands came out a giant slash made out of crimson fire, which incinerated all the no name pirates before they could even comprehend what happened.

The flames didn't stop there thought, because even after they went through hundreds of pirates and incinerated them, the slash then continued forward and went after Bear King and the four remaining members of the crew, who stared at what happened for only a second and then somehow managed to just as high as they could, which was just enough to make them go above the flaming slash, which then went behind them, without incinerating them on the spot, though it did cause them some burns on the lover part of their body, and melted some of their cloths, as the flames were incredibly hot.

When the five surviving members of Trump Pirates fell on the ground, they all winced in pain from the burns, but did turn around to see where the flaming slash went, and what they saw almost made them have heart attacks.

The five remaining Trump Pirates were looking at what used to be a forest, and rising above the forest a relatively tall hill, that was covering most of that part of the Island, but right now, there is no forest, as it was completely burned down, and there isn't even ash left, and the hill was literally cut in half, with everything above and below the cut being set on fire, and the top part of the hill slowly falling back toward the island, as it was apparently lifted up by the slash. (Think of it how Mihawk cut that iceberg in Marineford)

They could also see in the distance between the upper and lower half of the hill, and through the flames, that the slash went outside of the island, and was still going in the distance, causing the upper part of the ocean water which was affected by the heat to evaporate.

It took few more seconds before the flaming slash was no longer seen by anyone as it went all the way to the horizon and disappeared from view.

Then, it took about five minutes for Bear King and the others to turn back and look at Natsu, with jaws on the ground and eyes few inches out of their sockets in disbelief.

Natsu on the other hand just stood there and had a bored look on his face.

"So," Natsu started after another minute of silence. "Do you still want to fight, or are you just going to give up and come with me, so I can hand you over to the marines and get your bounties?"

Half an hour later.

Natsu was walking toward the shore, without really in any hurry, while behind him, he was dragging five members of Trump Pirates as well as Alvida all tied up with some rope he found on one member of Alvida's crew.

As he finally came down to the shore, he saw Luffy and Naruto seating on the sand, and enjoying the sun along with Koby who was seating next to them.

Not far from the three, he saw several bodies all beaten up, unconscious and tied with rope, just like the ones he captured.

"So, I'm the last one," Natsu said, as he approached them. "I was sure I'd be the first here as it didn't take me long to capture all of them."

"Hm, maybe it took you longer to get to them, as the ones Naruto and I encountered were not far from here." Luffy said.

"That could be it," Natsu said, after he dropped six bodies among the pile where the rest were, and came to sit next to the others, ignoring Koby, whose eyes were bulging out after he saw Natsu bring in six pirates with a total bounty of over 40 mill belly. "It did take me over half an hour to get to them, as I wasn't really in a hurry."

"So, what now," Naruto asked? "Where do we even look for the gold? This island is not that big, but it's also not small, and it would take us long time to search it all."

"Hm," Luffy hmed, and looked at the pile of captured pirates and then at Koby. "Hey Koby, did Alvida have some map or something that can point at the location of the gold?"

"No, she didn't," Koby said, and Luffy sighed. "But I heard her mention that Eldoraggo did have one, so if you search him, you might find it, or he could have potentially hid it on his ship if he memorized it."

"Ok then, let's see," Natsu was the one who said that, and stood up from the set, and went to check Eldoraggo, who was still unconscious, just like all the others, and after less than a minute, he pulled out a piece of old paper from inside of his shirt, and then he returned to sit with the others, so they can check the map.

"Well, according to this map, the gold is supposed to be underneath the tall mountain on the right side of the island," Luffy said, while they were all looking at the map, and where the x mark was on it, and then they all looked at the mountain. "It's in the direction where you went, Naruto." Luffy added after he remembered that Naruto went there.

"Didn't you found Eldoraggo there?" Natsu asked, and Naruto nodded.

"Yeah, but he didn't get to the mountain, so I can't tell exactly where the entrance might be," Naruto said. "We will still have to search for it."

"I wonder," Natsu suddenly said, and before anyone can say anything, he went back to Eldoraggo, and then started sniffing him, making Naruto and Luffy raise their eyebrows, and Koby's eyes bulged out and he almost gaged at seeing Natsu sniff Eldoraggo.

"W-What are y-you doing," Koby stuttered, after Natsu continued to sniff Eldoraggo for a full minute?

Natsu didn't say anything, and just continued to sniff Eldoraggo, well, that's what it looked like to the others from where they were seating, but he wasn't actually sniffing Eldoraggo, but the gold he was wearing as an armor.

Half a minute later, he stopped, lifted his head up, and started sniffing the air, making everyone wander, what the hell he's doing? Even Naruto and Luffy were confused.

"Come on, we need to get closer," Natsu said, and started walking away, while the others looked at each other, and followed after him, thought Naruto did leave two Shadow Clones to keep an eye on the captured pirates.

"Closer to where?" Luffy asked after Naruto, Koby and he caught up to Natsu.

"Closer to where the mark on the map is pointing," Natsu said, and then started explaining after he saw three confused expressions. "Even though I'm not natural born Dragon, I am a Dragon Slayer, and that gives me the same sense of smell as the real dragons, so I thought that if I can get a good smell on the gold that Eldoraggo is wearing as an armor, I might be able to sniff out the one on the Island."

"Can you even do that," Naruto asked in disbelief, as he couldn't pick any scent from the gold even though his own sense of smell in higher than normal human because of Kyuubi, but what Natsu is saying goes beyond anything. "It's not like the gold has any particular scent that can be followed."

"Well, normally it's impossible, but like I said, my sense of smell is just like pure dragons, and there is nothing with better sense of smell then Dragon's."

"W-What's this about Dragons, and enhanced sense of smell?" Koby asked as he was confused and didn't know what's going on.

"Hm, maybe I'll tell you some other time," Natsu said, while not even glancing at Koby, as he was focused on trying to pick some scent of the gold on the Island that's not coming from Eldoraggo, or any of the ships on the shore.

Koby wanted to press and find out what they are talking about, but seeing what the three were capable of, he didn't want to push his luck as they might turn against him, and kill him, as even though they seem nice, they are still pirates, and have killed a bunch of people from the other crew's.

Eventually, the four found a cave which led them underneath the mountain, and after about 10 more minutes of walking through it, the three pirates and a former pirate slave entered into a big chamber, and once they did, the four almost had heart attacks at what they saw inside.

The first few minutes after they entered into the chamber, none said anything, and were only staring at the mountains of gold all around them, and few times they also cast glances at the skeleton dressed in pirate clothing along with a hat, seating on the chair at the far end of the room, which would give the person that was seating there the full view of all the gold along with the entrance. That is, when that person was alive, and more than just dried up bones in a pirate suit.

The first to speak was Luffy. "You know, I had my doubts that there really is any gold here and that it is all a legend, but now seeing it with my own eyes, I almost can believe it."

"I agree," Koby said, his eyes still bulging in disbelief, as he was looking around. There was also some drool running from his wide open mouth, as seeing all this gold, makes his imagine what he could do with all of it. Even a small piece of it would be enough to set him for life without having to do anything, and live good life. "This is more gold then I ever thought I would see in my life."

"Yeah, though I guess what that guy said about Woonan stealing a third of all the gold in the world might be too much." Naruto said, and the other three looked at him, their eyes now back to normal.

"What do you mean?" Koby asked.

"Well, I don't really know how much gold there is in the world, but I seriously doubt that what we see here, is a third of it," Naruto said again. "There is definitely a lot here, and I can't even estimate how much as I don't know the value of gold, or how much there is here, but it was strange to me from the beginning that one person, even with his whole pirate crew and no matter how good or strong they are, would be able to get his hands on the third of the world's gold."

"I guess you are right," Natsu said, as he looked at all the gold, again. "But tell me something."

When he said that, Natsu was quiet for a few moments, and the other three looked at him, until he continued. "Does any of you have any idea how we are going to get all of this gold out of here, and where will we put it?"

There was a complete silence after that, as all four looked at each other, until. "Fuck," came out of Luffy's mouth. "We didn't think of that. There is no way we can take this gold with us, even if we put some of it in some bags, we wouldn't be able to take more than three or four bags since out boat is not big enough."

Another round of silence, and this time it was broken by Koby. "Well, I know that once Alvida heard about this, she was planning to move all the gold from this Island to another Island where she has a base," Koby said, and the three looked at him, listening to what he has to say. "The Island where her base is has no human population living on it, and as far as I know there never were any humans living there, so she was sure no one would be able to find the gold there since no one would know it is there, and would be safer then here, where it can be found by some other pirate once they hear the legend and are able to find the Island."

"Ok," Naruto said. "But we can't even do that, as we don't have another island where we would put it, and even if we did, it would take us forever to transport it all from here to there as we have no ship."

"Actually, there are a bunch of ship's docked on the shore," Natsu said. "We can use them."

"We could do that if there is more of us," Luffy said. "But with only three of us, four if you count Koby, we wouldn't be able to take and handle more than one ship, and there is enough gold here to fill four or five of them."

"Hm, maybe we can take two of them if one is the one that's being pulled by that beast, whatever it is," Natsu said.

"It's Plesiosaur," Koby said, but Natsu just shrugged.

"If we can… convince it, to work for us, then it can pull that ship, filled with gold, and we can take another one. It probably won't be enough to put all this gold in them, but we can probably take at least half of what's here, which is still better than nothing."

"Ok, that's not a bad idea," Naruto said. "But even if we do that, we would have to drag all that gold with us wherever we go, and I don't know about you, but I would want us to have our own pirate ship, and not use the ones from another pirate crew. Shouldn't our ship, just like out Jolly Roger and our crew's name, represent us, represent who we are?"

There was another silence, as everyone was thinking about what to do.

"Can't we cash in all the gold we take?" Koby asked, practically including himself in the question, as the one who can have some gold.

"I doubt there is enough money to cover all this gold in all the banks in the entire East Blue," Luffy said. "But I guess we can exchange some of it in Loguetown, as that is the biggest Town in East Blue, and has the biggest bank in this part of the world."

"How about we go back and see if there is something on the ships on the shore to help us carry this gold there, and then start to fill two ships which we will take with us," Naruto suggested. "After that, we can think of what to do, and maybe while we are East Blue we can find some place where we can hide the gold so we won't have to take it with us all the time."

The other three agreed, and went back to loot the ships of the other crews for anything that can be used for carrying all this gold, and surprisingly, they were able to find a ton of bags, as all the crews apparently came prepared, not that Luffy and the others will complain about that, as they didn't have shit with them that would help them in transporting all the gold.

Counting all the bags from all ships, Naruto, Luffy and Natsu each took two bags, Koby took one, and Naruto created a slew of Shadow Clones, making Koby's eyes pop out of his head, and each clone also took two bags, until there was none left, and then all of them went back to the chamber and started the tedious job of dragging the gold back to the first ship, which was the Trump Pirates flag ship.

Once that ship was full to the brim with the gold, and there was no place left to put more, unless they wanted to sink the ship, that is, Natsu went to 'talk' with Plesiosaur about helping them with pulling the ship for them.

At first the beast was less than willing to do that as it was not working with them, but Ganzack, so Natsu 'convinced' it, by roaring at the beast, which scared the hell out of Plesiosaur, and made it agree instantly, otherwise it would lose it head to this monster, as that is how Plesiosaur saw Natsu from then on, as no human should be able to give a roar like that which shook the entire Island and even the sea itself.

After that was over, Natsu and the others took a rest, as it was already starting to get dark, and very soon the night has fallen, so it was decided to fill the other ship tomorrow morning, and then continue their journey after lunch, as they would be able to finish by then.
