CH.1 FOREST THE NEW ACE
"There it is land ho!" Yelled Luffy to Nami who was standing next to their daughter .
The two where hard to see one form the other . Rain almost a splitting image of her mom when she was 15 . they all were wearing their desert gear being that they would be at Alabasta soon.
"Great anything else you see Dad." Yelled back Rain as she looked toward land.
"Hey Luffy have you heard the rumors ?"Asked Zoro as he walked to the mast.
"Zoro what are you talking about?' Questioned Nami with a puzzled expression.
"Ok look I heard in the last port that somebody has raiding any ship even marines that tries to enter the Alabasta Port but doesn't steal the whole cargo." Replied Zoro
"Ok and if we do we'll just knock them off." Said Luffy flexing his muscle .
"Ya dad we'll get them." Said Rain agreeing with her dad with a smile.
"you two are all the same." Exclaimed Nami as she stormed off to the stern of the ship.
Robin was leaning on the rail looking down on the events . " you know she acts and looks just like you but yet she is Luffys daughter still the same . " Said Robin as Nami came beside her.
"I know I love the both of them but they can be just annoying sometimes." Replied Nami with a sigh . the two started to laugh about Luffy and the memories they have had.
About two miles off the Thousand Sunny was a boat with three people on it . one was a dirty blonde boy looking about 15 . He had no shirt on and orange and black short that went down to his knees. He was wearing a small cross around his neck and goggles . The other boy also looked to be 15 was chestnut brown hair with a white shirt and tan short . the shorts had two sabers and one daggers hanging from the loops . The last was the captain of the boat.
"Hey forest looks like our info was right that is the Thousand sunny and that means loot." Said the Brown haired boy as he leaned against the mast.
"Yep Kad , hey you want to steal or be distraction?'' Questioned Forest as he put on the goggles .
"I'll steal besides you know that you are a much better distraction with your flames ."Replied Kad as he slapped forest on the back.
"ok see ya ,Caption be beside the ship in thirty minutes." Commanded Forest.
"Ok you boys be careful if the stories are true you're in for a fight." Replied The Caption with a smirk .
"Good luck here I good Flame Rocket!" Screamed Forest as his feet exploded into flames and he rocketed sky forest flew toward the Thousand Sunny he noticed a girl about fifteen orange hair and in a dancer outfit. "wonder who that is ?"Thought forest as he rocketed forward . Forest neared the ship at break neck speed with the blood pounding in his ear. " This is going to hurt !"Screamed forest as he plowed into the deck of the Thousand Sunny.
"What the hell just hit us?" Exclaimed Nami as she looked at the smoke where whatever had landed .
"don't know but it wasn't a cannonball ."replied Sanji as he got form when he fell form the impact.
"Man that was not my best landing little too hot( no pun intended ) ." Said the thing that landed on the ship as the smoke cleared revealing a boy no older than 15 with dirty blonde hair and no shirt.
"Ace ?'Question Luffy as he went beside Nami form the second floor rail.
"no not quite I'm forest A. Brooks the best thief of pirates in Alabasta ."Declared Forest as he glanced around at the crew ."I guess you most be monkey D. Luffy I hear that you have a family now and a growing crew but that has no concern with me I just came for the treasure." Remarked Forest slid his thumb under his nose and smirked .
" GUM GUM PISTOL!" Screamed Luffy as he shoot his hands out at Forest . forest skillfully dogded the punches with grace .
"So is that all you have I was expect more form the coming king of the pirates ." Smirk Forest as he took a boxing stance .
"Luffy let me take this guy." Said Zoro as he put his sword in his mouth .
"Ok Zoro ."replied Luffy as he stepped back.
"You chose the wrong pirates to miss kid." Said Zoro thorough his sword .
"Ok bring it old man ."remarked Forest with a cocky tone.
"Prepare to die!" Screamed Zoro as he charged forest . As Zoro slashed forest rasied his arm to block the swords . "you idiot ."Remarked Zoro as the blades landed. The whole crew was in amazement as they looked on at the two fighting . Zoros blades had been blocked by flames covering forests for arm. "You're a devil fruit user." Exclaimed Zoro as he jumped back .
"Yep I am so you know my secret o well ."Replied forest shrugging . Forest resumed the boxing stance that he had before .
" Luffy you want to take care of him?'' Asked Zoro as he put up his swords .
"sure I mean he may now were some good meat is ."Replied Luffy as flexed his muscle. "GUM GUM bullet !" yelled Luffy smiling as he throw his arm . Luffy shoot his fist forward as forests hands burst into flames . Luffy tipped his and said. "So now that you have pulled out your gun are ready and will to use it. Guns are for killing ."
"I guess I have to be ."Replied Forest as he tightened his stance.
Forest dodged Luffys punch over his right shoulder and ran up to luffy giving him a punch. Luffy stretched out like a blanket . " CROSSFIRE!" Screamed Forest as the fire on his right hand formed into a cross and forest throw the punch directly in Luffys Stomach. Luffy fell to the deck on his back. " GUM GUM HAMMER!" Screamed Luffy as he twisted his arms and grabbed Forest.
"Crap." Mumbled Forest as he was thrown to the mast . Forest landed with a thud and fell face down into the lawn .
"Hey dad let me take him ."Said Rain with a mischievous smile.
"ok but make sure you don't kill he is your first devil fruit user." Replied luffy as he stepped back from the law.
"Let go!" Screamed Rain as she flicked out her staff .
"So this is the power of the strawhat pirates , oh who are you ?" Questioned Forest as he got up off the lawn .
"Ya you awake? "Asked Rain as she tapped Forest on the head with her staff .
"Ya I'm awake girl now you die!" screamed forest as he lit his hands and swong at Rain . Rain blocked it with her staff then with a swing of the other tip she knocked forest backward. "so is that the best you can do?" Exclaimed Forest as ran at Rain full throttle.
Battle soon ensued into all out war as the two went at each other . Forest burned Rain several time and he himself was getting a good amount of cuts and bruise .Forest was bleeding form his right check . While Rain was form her arm. Forest after an hour got the upper hand put Rain into a head lock.
"Looks like this is over." Hissed forest as he held Rain by her neck , not noticing that Nami was sneaking up behind "Ugghh."Groaned forest as Nami smacked him on the head knocking him out cold. As he fell he let go of Rain .
Suddenly the door leading to the lower levels flew open and Franky, Chopper, and Brook came out with a brown haired boy with sabers .
"Hey Luffy we found a thief belo what happened up here?' Questioned Franky looking at the damage to the crew and ship.
"We had a bit of a fight with this thwart and I guess that this is friend ."Replied Zoro as he got the other kid. "Hey Luffy what do you think we should do with them?' asked Zoro as he walked over with the kid on his shoulder.
" Just put them against the mast ."Replied luffy as he propped forest against the mast.
"Ok but don't you think they would try to escape?" Asked Zoro as he placed The kid by Forest .
"No I don't think that they are that dishonorable and beside is just have a feeling that fate has given us a few new crew members ."Answered Luffy with a smile looking at his wife and daughter .
"you ok ?"Asked Nami to Rain as She helped her up.
"Ya just a few scraps and bruise , Uggh."Groaned Rain as she collapsed over the rail.
Luffy shoot out his arms catching Rain in his arms. He pulled Her into a loving hug. He set her down beside forest .
" man this he looks peaceful I mean he and I were just fighting no more less than ten minutes ago." thought Rain as she looked at her arm . It was bleed slowly.
"Rain hold still." commanded Chopper as he rapped the wound.
"Thanks chopper." Replied Rain she got up . "Hey look I'll take care of them when they wake ."offered Rain as she saw that chopper was still tried form wills stomach flu last week.
"Thanks Rain here is the supplies if you need anything I'll be in the sick bay." Replied Chopper as the clopped off.
"Ummmh." Groaned both the boys as the wake up. Forest rubbed his head while kad just looked around confused .
"Hey Forest I don't think that we are going to be able to pay Ryan's bill this month and I don't think that we will be seeing them for a long time." Said Kad as he tried to get up .
"Nope I think you're right but if we have to we can fight our way out , we did get through that marine ship." Replied Forest as he got up. "Uggh."Groaned forest as his leg wound began to bleed. Forest fell over on his face .
"So I was wondering when you two would wake up ." Said a voice that sounded likea girls. Forest looked up to see an orange haired girl that he had been fighting earlier .
"so who are you?" Asked Forest as he meet her eyes.
"Me I'm Rain D. Luffy the pirate princess!" Declared Rain smiling .
