In the trailer parking lot, Lucci is on his way to his trailer muttering, "First one to Raftel gets One Piece all to himself. Oh, we'll see who gets there first, Doffy."
Lucci found the spot where his trailer was supposed to be to see it gone. "Huh?" Lucci said, confused.
Then, a very large man with brown hair tied in a ponytail on the back, and a light-brown beard walked up to him. He was wearing a pair of crimson elbow-pads, knee-long pants and standard shoes.
"Hey Lucci! Congrats on the tie!" the man shouted.
"I don't want to talk about it, Tilestone. What'd you do with my trailer?" Lucci asked.
"I parked it over at your sponsor's tent! You got to make your personal appearance!" Tilestone exclaimed.
"No…NONONONO!" Lucci shouted, looking over at his sponsor's tent.
Inside the tent, a bunch of people were crowded around a TV with an ad with Lucci on it.
"Yes, yes, yes! Rob Lucci here! And I use Risky Medicated Face Ointment, new face cleansing formula. Nothing soothes an acne-scarred face like Risky. Bottle of Risky," Lucci stated.
A bottle of Risky Medicated Face Ointment goes by a random person's acne-scarred faces, and the face becomes smooth and shiny.
"Wow, isn't that amazing! Use Risky, and you too, can look like me!" Lucci exclaimed, before doing his signature growl.
Two men stood under the TV, one was tall and thin and the other was short and fat. They were the Risky Brothers, the owners of the Risky Medicated Face Ointment company.
"I hate people with acne scars, or scars in general!" Lucci grumbled.
"Well, you got to thank them! These guys gave you your big break!" Tilestone exclaimed.
Lucci did an exasperated sigh and said, "Okay, just go get your truck hooked up to the trailer."
"Summer is a grand old time," the taller Risky brother stated.
"As if there are no ifs or buts," the shorter brother added.
Lucci grabbed a cardboard standee and tried to use it to hide him from the people in the tent.
"But all that summer heat can cause oily skin," the taller one said.
"And can lead to a case of acne and possible future acne-," the shorter one started to finish until Lucci dropped the standee, revealing himself.
"Look, there he is!" he shouted.
"Our almost champ! Get your rear end up onstage, kid!" the taller one shouted.
Lucci sighed and made his way through the crowd. He smiled nervously as he observed the people around him. They all had acne scars, some with a few small ones, but some people had very severe acne scars, the ones that made him feel freaked out and sick.
"You're my hero, Lucci-san!" a tall man wearing heavy make-up on his face exclamed.
"Yeah, thanks, um…" Lucci said, until he saw the man's nametag that said, "Bentham." "Bentham, thanks," Lucci said.
"He knows my name!" Bentham shouted, starting to do pirouettes.
Lucci finally made it to the stage and the shorter Risky brother said, "Thanks to you, Lucci, we had a banner year!"
"We might even clear enough to buy your car some headlights!" the taller Risky brother added.
"His car doesn't have headlights?!" the shorter brother said, surprised.
"Yeah, the headlights are just stickers!" the taller one stated.
"Racecars don't need headlights because the track is always lit," Lucci stated.
"So's my brother, but his car still needs headlights!" the shorter Risky Brother exclaimed.
The people in the tent laughed at the joke.
"Now ladies and gentlemen! Rob Lucci!" the Risky brothers exclaimed, as the tent lights went out except for the one that was shining on Lucci.
Lucci took a deep breath and said, "Thank you everyone, for a fantastic year, and remember with a little Risky…" He then muttered to himself, "And an insane amount of luck." Then he said aloud, "You too can look just like me." Lucci then did a weaker growl toward the people.
Everyone cheered as the race car driver entered his trailer.
"Oh man, buddy, you're great!" the taller Risky brother said.
"And we're looking forward to another great year, just like this year," the shorter brother said as Lucci shut the door to his trailer.
Lucci then muttered to himself, "Not on your life."
The truck then pulled away from the tent. "Don't drive like my brother!" the shorter Risky brother shouted.
"Don't drive like my brother!" the taller one repeated.
"Raftel, here we come!" Tilestone shouted.
"One Piece here we come," Lucci said to himself.
He turned on the lights in his trailer, revealing that he shared the double-wide with his race car. There was also a wall with posters of Lucci on it, a shelf of bobble-heads of him, and other merchandise of him decorated the room. Lucci laid down on his bed, clicked a button, opening the cover on the roof, revealing the night sky, and looked up. Tilestone drove the trailer out of the racetrack and onto the highway.
After one day, Lucci was lying on his bed as some sort of machine massaged his back. Then, his phone rang.
"Hello?" Lucci said.
"Is this Rob Lucci, the World's Greatest Race Car Driver?" a voice asked.
"Is this Harv the World's Greatest agent?" Lucci replied.
"And it is such an honor to be your agent!" the man named Harv said. "What a race, huh champ? I didn't see it but I heard you were great."
"Yeah," Lucci said, taking a remote and looking back at the footage of him, Rayleigh, and Doflamingo crossing the finished line at the same.
"Listen, they're giving you 20 tickets to the tie-breaker thing in Raftel! I'll pass them onto your friends. Just shoot me the name," Harv stated.
"Friends? Yes, uh…" Lucci said. Truth be told, Lucci had never really had friends. He never had time to make friends when he was trying to be a race car driver and he never had any during this season.
"Okay, I get it, Mr. Popular. So many friends you can't narrow it down. But hey, when you get to Raftel, you need to make time for your best friend," Harv said.
"Yeah, we should totally-," Lucci started saying, until Harv said, "I gotta jump. I'm out," he hung up.
Lucci sighed, and looked outside the window, where he saw a minivan drive by the truck.
"What? A minivan!" Lucci muttered. Then he grabbed the intercom that connected to Tilestone's truck. "Tilestone, what are you doing? You're in the slow lane," Lucci said.
"Just stopping for a quick breather kid, old Tilestone needs a rest," Tilestone said, about to drive into a truck stop.
"No, we're driving all night to Raftel," Lucci said.
"All night!" Tilestone shouted.
"Yeah, I got to get there before Doflamingo and hang with One Piece," Lucci explained.
"I don't think I can survive the entire night," Tilestone said.
"Come on, it'll be easy. I'll stay up with you," Lucci offered.
"All night?" Tilestone said, happily.
"All night long," Lucci said, climbing inside his race car.
A few hours later, Lucci had dozed off, and Tilestone was still awake, but was struggling. He was close to falling asleep but, he immediately woke up and shook his head, in an attempt to stay awake.
At that point, four tricked out cars came driving alongside the truck.
"Zehahaha, hey Burgess!" the leader with a scruffy black beard shouted to one of the other three that had a wrestler mask.
"What is it, Blackbeard!" the man called Burgess shouted.
"We got ourselves a nodder," the bearded man named Blackbeard said.
Burgess snickered as he turned on a soft ballad in his car.
"Pretty music…" Tilestone said before drifting off.
The four tricked cars and their drivers started to move the truck around the road, until they got into part of the outside.
"You going on vacation," Vasco Shot said as the group laughed.
As the truck bumped along the road, one of Lucci's bobble heads fell off the shelf and landed on the button that opened up the door where the car rolled out of the trailer. Lucci's race car slowly rolled out of the trailer and was just sitting on the door, which was scrapping on the road.
Then, Vasco Shot did a very loud sneeze, causing Tilestone to wake up immediately.
"Gesundheit!" TIlestone shouted.
The gang drove away very quickly Lucci in his race car ended up off the trailer and into the high.
"One should never drive while drowsy!" Tilestone shouted.
Cars started to go around Lucci and it wasn't long until Lucci woke up in his car just to see a big truck coming at him!
"WHOA!" he shouted, moving his car out of the way and started driving in the wrong direction of the road. It didn't take long for Lucci's car to end up spinning into the dirt.
Lucci watched as he saw a truck drive down the road.
"Tilestone!" he shouted as he drove back onto the road to go after his truck driver.
He saw there were several trucks on the road, which would make it difficult to find his own truck. Lucci went by truck after truck, trying to find Tilestone, until he saw a yellow truck make a turn onto a road branching off of the highway.
"Tilestone! Wait for me!" he shouted.
He followed the truck and followed it down the road, until he caught up to it at an intersection.
"Tilestone!" Lucci shouted as he drove alongside the truck. He drove up to the truck that was pulling the trailer…to see it wasn't Tilestone. "You're not Tilestone," he said.
"Tilestone! I ain't no Tilestone!" the truck driver shouted. "Turn your headlights on, you moron!"
The truck drove away, leaving Lucci alone on the road.
"Tilestone…the Interstate!" Lucci said, turning his car around and started to drive down a road with an old sign with Route 66 on it.
So, if you've seen the original Cars movie, you know this is the part where Lightning got separated from Mack, and the next chapter is where he's going to end up in Radiator Springs, but remember, I'm recasting the Cars characters with human One Piece characters, and I'm renaming the small town to, so stay tuned.
