Sorry, guys for not updating on this story as well as my other stories I've taking a lot of tests for my classes at high school for about month so yeah I've been working a lot and didn't have time update the stories so I'm going to get much done as possible.
Enjoy!
Chapter One: Creepy Ships
In their new ship, the Thousand Sunny, Luffy and his pirate crew, the Strawhat Pirates head for Fishman Island.
However, first, the crew must first cross the Florian Triangle.
"I got one!" Luffy shouted, as he caught something from the ocean.
Usopp exclaimed excitedingly "Wow! You caught a shark! Put it in! Put it in!"
Luffy places the shark into the fish tank.
(Aquarium Bar)
Franky, Sanji, and Robin were in the Aquarium Room, as they saw a shark come into the fish tank.
"...There's another one. A shark, huh?" Robin claimed, as she saw the sea animal swimming, looking angry.
"Hey! Is this room good or what?" Franky asked, taking a seat.
Sanji replied "This room's good, sure, but a shark? Those morons!"
Usopp and Luffy ran at the same time and pace.
Both shouted "Yeah, let's go see it! Let's go see the shark in the Fish Tank!"
Both slammed into the door to the Aquarium Bar loudly, Luffy shouted "Yooo!"
Usopp asked screaming "A shark dropped in, right!? That thing's a beauty, I tell ya!"
Robin took a sip from her tea and replied "Yes, it went in, but all of the other fish you've caught have been eaten by the shark."
Usopp and Luffy screamed "GYAAAAAA!"
Sanji shouted at both of them "Think of what can live together! It's as simple as that!"
Luffy screamed "Goddamit! We're having this bastard for dinner! Sanji! Barbecue this stupid shark!"
Sanji sighed "Hold up, you amateur... This is fresh fish we're talking about here."
Franky asked "How about sushi...? We can make it into yuzarashi... Putting it in spicy vinegared miso would be so good."
Robin said "Tempura would tasty, too."
Luffy whined "Nahoooo...! I'm so hungry now!"
Usopp suggested "...Well, let's eat it, as a snack."
Sanji yelled "Wait until tonight!"
(Bathroom)
Nami exited out of the bathroom. She inhaled and exhaled her breath, "Haaaa... What a nice bath!"
She wipes her wet hair with a towel. "A huge bathtub rocked by the waves! It's the best!"
(Medical Room)
Chopper lies down on the patient's bed, looking a happy, relaxing, and loving the room.
"Hm, this is my room!"
(Crow's Nest)
Zoro is sitting in the Crow's Nest, looking bored, and had already completed training.
He stares at the ocean for awhile, then he notices something.
"Hmm," he definitely noticed something.
"Hey! Something's floating in the water!" He announced to his crewmates.
Luffy asked proudly "What is it?!"
Usopp asked "Where is it?"
Sanji pointed out "Is it that?"
Chopper asked "A barrel?"
Usopp pointed out "It has 'Treasure' written on it."
Luffy asked "Could it be? Something dropped by from a "Treasure Ship?"
Chopper and Usopp cheered "Treasure!"
"Hey, Luffy! Bring it aboard on the ship!" Usopp stated.
After stretching his arm, grabbing the barrel, and bringing aboard the ship. He laid it in the center of where his friends were standing.
Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper were cheering that they found treasure, but Nami interrupted their cheering, "Too bad. It doesn't look like it. It's probably alcohol or reserves inside when we open it."
"Hey, how can you tell without looking?" Luffy mocked.
Nami replied "It says 'an offering to the honourable sea god,' written on it, right? That's a 'Floating Barrel.' Someone was praying for a safe voyage. They offered it to the God of the Seas."
Usopp saddened by this revelation "What the... Then picking it up was pointless."
"Hey, if it's alcohol. Let's drink it." Zoro said, feeling a bit thirsty.
Usopp shouted at him "Idiot! It's probably cursed!"
Nami suggested "It's ok if we pray before we drink it, right?"
Zoro proclaimed clearly "I pray to no god."
Nami revealed "But alcohol that was protected by the waves tastes delicious"
Franky agreed "True! It will have a strong taste."
Usopp cheered "ALRIGHT! LET'S TOAST!"
Robin also mentioned "It's also appropriate that when the barrel is empitied. We should put something else in it's place."
Franky shouted "Open it! Open it! Hurry up!"
Luffy shouted, praying to god, "Hey, God! We're going to take this!"
Zoro growled "A certain somebody here, sent 'God' flying back in the land of the sky..."
Luffy finished his prayer and untied the knots around the barrel, "Great, it's open." When the ropes fell away, he opened the lid, and then a loud BOOM came about.
Usopp screamed "Something flew out!"
A red flash flew to the sky and exploded over their heads, making it look like a firework of some sort.
Everyone stared at it until it vanished away from the sky.
Nami asked "What's going on?" She wasn't the only one, everyone was wondering what the hell was going on in their minds.
Chopper exclaimed "The alcohol... The alcohol flew up and disappeared."
Robin explained "It's a flare."
Zoro joked "Ha, ha, ha! Was that the Sea God's Curse?"
Robin went on to say slowly "If it were a prank then nothing is to be worried about, but... If it was?"
Usopp and Chopper repeated her last sentence, being afraid "If it was?"
Robin continued "Someone may be targeting this ship."
Usopp shouted fearing something might happen, "Don't tell me! It was a trap! A trap triggered by that barrel!? We just alerted someone's presence here!"
He continued to scream "Chopper! Stay on guard!" As he barked the order, Chopper did as he was told and looked at all directions.
"I can't see anyone!" He shouted back at Usopp.
Nami stated "I can't see everyone..." She thought 'But this pressure and the clouds are moving fast.'
She ran and shouted "Everyone to your posts. We're running South-Southeast!"
She continued to shout "A huge storm is coming in 5 minutes!"
Luffy stated "I can't see it, but if she says so, it's coming fast. Nami! What's the heading?"
She replied shouting back at Luffy, "2'O'Clock! Straight ahead!"
As, everyone headed to their posts, 5 minutes have already passed, just as Nami accurately predicted. Dark clouds have covered the once-blue sky; it began to rain so much that it was beginning hard to see.
Franky reminded Nami of something, "Hey! You think that's all this ship can do?"
Nami knew what he was talking about, "Of course! Everyone! Hoist the sails! We're bringing out the paddle!"
As, soon, as everyone raised the sails, the preparations were made. Nami shouted "Franky! We're good to go!"
Franky turned the crank at the wheel, so that the two sides that held the number zero opened and two giant paddle-wheels came out side-by-side, and they flew across the water.
They rode their way through the thunderstorm only for it's rain in such a short amount of time, but the Strawhats still had a feeling of coldness and fear. That feeling of something was wrong.
The thunder and lightening stopped, and the waves were calm. So, what could be so wrong at this time?
Well, for one thing there was a fog and it was still pitch black and dark. It made the ocean look spooky and creepy.
Nami stated "That was scary."
Zoro added to her statement "Scary or not. It shouldn't even be night, yet. It's so eerily and dark."
Nami asked "Could it be that we've reached that part of the sea, already? My heart isn't ready to take it."
Usopp claimed "That we've reached Fishman Island?!"
Luffy whispered close to his face "Oh, no..." He was now speaking in a dark voice "This is where we pass through a sea of ghosts"
Franky also continued this scare to Usopp, as he said in a dark voice like Luffy's, "That's right. Don't relax just yet... No, doubt about it. This area is... That famous. The Florian Triangle. This is the strange sea where almost everything disappears, shrouded in a mystery."
Usopp, now afraid, tried muttering the word "ghost," but couldn't finish it, as, Luffy stated happily to him"Yeah! There are supposed to be ghosts here!"
Usopp yelled "Stop joking around! Why is everyone acting like they've heard this before? I never heard this!"
Luffy laughed, as he jumped off the railing, and stated "Old Lady Kokoro told us. She said there were living skeletons here, as well."
Usopp, now scared shitless, and shaking from powerful fear. He muttered "Living... Skeletons...?"
Sanji lit his cigeratte and stated "That's all your imagination. Don't scare him like that, you guys."
Though, Sanji wasn't any better, as he spoke in a chilling tone "Listen, Usopp. Every year in this ocean, over a hundred ships vanish mysteriously... What's more is that ghost carrying corpses wander these vary waters, or so they say..."
Usopp screamed "NOOOOO! Nobody said this before!"
Sanji asked "And if someone had?" Again in his chilling tone voice.
"I gotta protect myself!" he cried. "I gotta find something to protect me from those evil spirits!"
Chopper asked for the same stuff for Usopp, as well.
Then a voice was heard, rather a song...
"Yohohoho..."
Usopp was spooked with Chopper hanging around his back, and he asked "What... What's with this music?"
It was heard again, this time a bit louder, "Yohohoho..." A dark, gloomy, scary ship appeared before their eyes. It was like a giant shadow covering them in darkness. There was a hint of sadness in this ship. Reeked of depression and guilt. Smelled of death and a bit of tea for some strange reason.
Everyone was looking for the singer of this strange melody. He sounded sad and dark. Usopp was looking uneasy and scared, then he grabbed everyone's attention by shouting "IT'S HERE!"
Everyone screamed, except Robin, who looked calm, "GHOST SHIP!"
The song continued "Yohohoho..."
"Yohohohooo!"
Everyone was shocked, aside from Robin, jaws dropping, eyes in the back of their heads, and feared what was coming from this ship.
"Yohohoho..."
"Yohohohooo"
"W..." Nami stuttered "What's with this song?" Usopp clapped his hands over his ears and cried "QUICK! EVERYONE COVER YOUR EARS! IT'S A SAILOR'S DEITY OF THE DAMNED FROM HELL! IF YOU LISTEN WE'LL BE TRAPPED HERE, FOREVER!"
Chopper screamed and covered his ears desperately as Usopp continued on "IF YOU LISTEN TO THE SAILOR'S DEITY, DON'T ANSWER, OR THE EVIL SPIRITS WILL DRAG YOU DOWN TO THE SEA! EVEN WORSE JOIN THEIR CREW!" Chopper screamed even louder and rammed his hat down to where his shoulders were.
Robin questioned "This ship... Is someone riding it?"
Zoro proclaimed "Heh, if it's an enemy, I'll just cut him down."
Sanji whispery stated "Something's there."
The ship slowly passing by, none of the Strawhats said a word, till they noticed a figure staring at them.
The figure was singing to himself, as the Strawhats was staring at him scared and shocked.
"Gather up all the crew..."
"It's time to ship out Bink's Brew..."
When that ended, he took a large slurp of his tea, and continued to sing his creepy song. The Strawhats gawked at him for awhile.
Snapping off the fear that he was in, Luffy asked his crew mates, as if he wasn't dreaming "Hey, did you guys see that? That skeleton was singing."
Usopp and Chopper cringed out of fear after hearing such a statement, Usopp shouted "Idiot! Skeletons don't just sing!"
He continued to rant "It was a spirit! A spirit!"
Liffy, no longer listening, asked everyone "But you heard it, right? Let's go! Let's go, now!" He was about to run off, but Dmaji grabbed his collar, and stated "Hold on. Hold on. Don't rush, Luffy."
Zoro held out a few straws to Usopp, Nami, and Chopper. "Alright, we'll see draw straws to see who goes with Luffy."
"WHAT?!" The three of them screamed at him.
"Why?!" Usopp asked and continued "He's fine with those who want to go with him."
Nami screamed "He's right! Let them do it." Chopper climbed on top of Zoro's head and shouted "Let them do it!"
Zoro asked clearly "Are you sure about that?" As Usopp, Nami, and Chopper looked and saw Luffy, Franky, Robin, and Sanji were standing on a railing and each willing to go to see for themselves.
"You, guys ready?" Luffy asked as he stretched his legs-looking ready to jump off.
"SUPER ready!" Franky cheered.
Seeing this was working against them, the Weakling Trio fell to their knees in defeat as if they knew that they had to draw straws or risk being left all alone. However, Zoro was walking towards the others, the trio clung to his legs, making it look like a chain, and begged to draw straws.
Luffy stated to them "Just go, I'll be fine by myself. If we don't hurry the ship will be gone."
Sanji turned and spoke to him "That's right, and then you can't go."
Zoro held out the straws and said "Well, pick one already. Two of us will go with him. To prevent Liffy from doing something idiotic."
After that, the two people that were going with Luffy, were Sanji and Nami.
They came down onto a little boat to go over to the side of the "ghost ship."
Nami was in the boat, crying, and looking scared shitless. "Why me? Why did I have to go? I wanna go back! I shouldn't be here! I'm so screwed."
Luffy called down "Nami, you coming or what? Hurry up!"
Nami retorted "SHUT UP!"
"That's why I wanted to go alone." He stated.
"Forget it!" Sanji snapped at him. "If you do something stupid and lose the ship whhat are we going to do?!"
Nami climbed up the rope ladder, muttering about the draw.
Sanji proclaimed back at her "Nami-Swan! It's all right! I'll protect you!"
She muttered "Even if you say so..."
Luffy called down again to Nami. "Nami! I thought you believed this was a treasure ship!"
She retorted back at him "This is not a treasure ship! You saw it, didn't you! That living skeleton!"
Luffy remarked to her "I'm sure that guy is the treasure guard. Anyway, I'm going to look for him."
They continued to climb, till they noticed the skeleton. Nami screamed very loudly for the others to hear her.
Back on the Sunny, the others watched, especially Usopp, who prayed for Luffy to rest in peace.
They continued to climb up up to the deck, where the skeleton was. All three stared at him for awhile, an extremely tall skeleton dressed in a little teared clothing, a large Afro on his head, and carried a a cup of tea in his hand, while having a cane hooked into his arm.
Luffy just stood there, next to Sanji with Nami cowering behind him. For about a minute, the skeleton just stood there and stared at them all. Then, he broke into a laughter of joy.
"How are you? Yohohohoho!" He laughed. "My apologies for my rudeness earlier. Our eyes met yet I did not greet you properly! I scare you..! How many decades has it been? Since I've met a living person..? Ship after ship, they're so afraid of the ghost ship!" He kept saying to himself. "Please! Come inside and make yourselves at home here! We'all be able to talk more relaxed."
Luffy cheered like a little kid getting a birthday present, "Look! It talked! The skeleton is talking from his Afro!"
Sanji was in disbelief "I can't believe it..." The skeleton noticed Nami then he chortled "My, my, my! My lady, you're a sight to behold! Beautiful!"
Nami was shaken and backed away a little, shaking her hands a little in front of her, trying to tell the skeleton that she wasn't that beautiful.
The skeleton continued "My eyes have never seen such a pretty woman! Although, I'm a skeleton, so my eyes don't see much. Yohohohoho!" He put his tea on a dead looking table, along with his cane, fastened his front, and shined his shoes. He went up to her and asked her in a very polite voice, "Pardon me, miss, but may you be so kind as to show me your panties?"
And like that she kicked the skeleton to the side of his skull and shouted "LIKE HELL I WOULD!"
"YOHOHOHOHO!" He laughed as he fell to the floor with a huge bump on his head. "Now that was harsh! You bruised me even though I'm only a skeleton!"
Nami retorted "SHUT UP!"
Luffy stared at this for awhile then started to laugh. Sanji questioned "How come this skeleton is an idiot..?"
Luffy stopped laughing and asked "Hey, can you poop?"
Sanji snapped at him "WE GOT A MILLION MORE QUESTIONS BEFORE WE ASK THAT!"
The skeleton got right back up, calmly went to dead looking table to get his cane and tea then he walked back to stand in front of them again and answered "Yes, I can poop."
"DON'T ANSWER HIM!" Sanji cried.
"Nevermind," he continued and pointed his finger at the skeleton to ask him questions "You're a skeleton and yet you live and talk! Just who are you?! What are you?! Why are you here? What's going on in this ship? And what is happening on this ocean?! We need answers now!"
However, Luffy walked up and said "Wait. Before that... I like to ask him my question! Would you join our crew?"
Sanji and Nami exclaimed "What?!" As if they knew something was wrong in this picture, and it was that Liffy did do something idiotic.
Taking the skeleton back to the Sunny, like as if nothing happened, the skeleton greeted everyone, and introduced himself as 'All Dead Bones' Brook.
Zoro, Usopp, and Franky exclaimed out of anger "ARE YOU KIDDING? WHO THE HELL IS THIS GUY?"
Chopper held up a silver cross, holding it in front of him like it would protect from the evil spirit/skeleton. "It's... A talking... Skeleton?" He whimpered, looking scared shitless as his eyes were pulled into the back of his head.
The other Straw Hats were just staring at him. Unsure of what to do or even say. Robin came up to him looking interested into seeing what this individual was.
Brook came up to her and asked "My, you're beautiful. Would you mind showing your panties?"
Nami outraged threw her shoe at him and yelled "Shut up!"
What was even weirder was when Usopp came out of nowhere dressed in a purple cape and fedora, wearing a prayer beads necklace around his neck, while holding a golden cross and a necklace of garlic. Takin a few shaky steps, he stammered "o-kay, you s-skeleton thingy! We d-don't want a-any trouble! J-just leave us be! E-evil spirit be gone!"
"Hey! Look it's working! Chopper cheered "You're awesome, Usopp!"
"Of course, I am awesome!" Usopp pridefully stated in all honestly, "This is my own Evil Dispersion Kit, this will protect us from any evil spirit coming to harm us."
"What evil spirit?!" Brook cried "Where? I don't see it?"
"It's you, stupid!" Chopper and Usopp shouted at him as Brook screeched in horro as if he had no idea he was the evil spirit.
Usopp cursed "Damn it! There is no way a skeleton can walk, talk, or even have an Afro! This has to be a dream."
"It's a dream! What a relief..." Chopper said that as he fell onto his back and closed his eyes trying to wake up from this nightmare.
Until Brook asks "Um, excuse me. Wake up." Chopper opened his eyes only to see Brook's face and he screamed in horror.
"THAT'S ENOUGH!" Zoro yelled at Brook before he turned to Luffy and asked "Luffy, who the hell is this guy? And why did you even bring him back here?"
"Isn't he funny?" Luffy asked eagerly "He's gonna join the crew."
"LIKE HELL HE IS!" Zoro yelled "YOU CAN'T JUST BRING ANYTHING YOU WANT TO JOIN US!" Zoro then thurned to Sanji and Nami, berating them "You two! We sent you with him so he wouldn't do something like this stupid! What the hell happened?!"
Nami and Sanji both apologized "I know we messed up."
"Now, now. Let's not argue," Brook began as they all formed a circle and cheered "How about we get into the gallery and have some dinner?"
Zoro, Nami, and Sanji yelled at him "YOU DON'T GET TO DECIDE THAT!"
[Meanwhile in another part of the Florian Triangle]
It has been too many hours for Alucard to count, he doesn't know how many days have gone by, or whether where the hell was he even anyway. He knew he wasn't in the Thames River that's for sure. But now he wonders if he is in his own world. One could only as to why he's as that blue light and what was the purpose of bringing him here?
He knew he was in a new world, and he was getting excited on who he was going to prey upon.
