Hey everyone one, welcome to crystal Coby.

I do hope you like this storyline, ok?.

I'll try to make this story great for you lot, ok?.

let's go.

xxxxxxx

it's a nice day in shells town. The day ax hand Morgan rules over the whole town and the marine base, has come to an end.

ax hand Morgan is behind bars, and his son Helmeppo, is forced into joining the marines.

everything is finally at peace again.

[town pub]

Luffy's eating a lot of food. Zoro is relaxing in a chair. The whole town's people are happy.

as for Coby... he's in his own world right now.

(I wonder what to do now. After the fight, I don't think joining the marines is a great idea anymore. I can't be a pirate either, I don't want to be a criminal thought Coby).

as Coby thinks up a plan. He see's the people enjoying Luffy's time.

(he may have saved the town... but he's still a pirate. If I join him, I'll someday become a wanted pirate as well. What would dad do in this type of situation? Thought Coby).

as he thought about his dead dad, who was a great man... Coby knew, what to do.

hey Luffy called out Coby. Yeah Coby? Asked Luffy stopped eating (for now).

I know my dream was to be a marine... but if I become one... who's to say I'll never be like ax hand Morgan? Asked Coby.

if you don't want to be a marine anymore, then what's your plan? Asked Zoro.

that's for Luffy to decide. Luffy, can I trust, that while I help you become king of the pirates someday. That you'll help me change the marine ranks from half evil, half good. To fully good? Asked Coby.

sure. Welcome aboard my pirate crew Coby said Luffy with a happy smile.

I thank you then, captain Luffy said Coby.

just like that the marines showed up.

I'm Lieutenant Ripper. I hear you lot are pirates. Is that true? Asked Ripper.

yep, just me, Zoro and now Coby said Luffy.

I see, as thanks for saving us we'll not tell HQ about you three. But you are still pirates, so I ask you to please leave at once said Ripper.

ok, let's go you two said Luffy to his crew.

[at the port]

so where to Luffy?. We've got plenty of places to go to before heading to the grand line said Coby.

how come? Asked Luffy confused. We are just three people. It doesn't count, we're going to need more people to be a true pirate crew. We'll also need a map to the grand line, a real ship. Supplies. And whatever else I can think up said Coby.

whatever you say Coby said Luffy. So what's your role on the crew kid? Asked Zoro.

I guess until we can find a real navigator, I'll just have to do. While that, I do believe Luffy's in need of a advisor. That's going to be my main role on in the crew said Coby.

so what are we calling ourselves? Asked Zoro.

we're the straw hat pirates said Luffy smiling.

that's dumb said Zoro. I like it, it matches your style captain said Coby.

just like that the three set sail to the great unknown.

[a few hours later]

Luffy's cloud gazing. Zoro's taking an nap. And Coby is reading some maps of the east blue islands.

let's see here, if my calculations are right. Orange town island is this way. I think I found a good place to stock up on food and drinks for awhile guys! Said Coby to the captain and vice captain.

great, it's about time we find an new island said Luffy happily. Better have good booze on it said Zoro half asleep.

as the three set sail to orange town, they wondered what's on said island.

there it is, orange town. A perfect place, for perfect people said Coby.

I wonder how much food they have said Luffy.

[orange town port]

you sure you want to stay here in the boat Zoro?. You could come with us said Coby.

na, someone's got to keep an eye on the boat. Besides, you two can handle a little shopping without me said Zoro as he lays down in the boat.

come on Coby, let's go check out the town said Luffy calling out to Coby. Be right there captain! Said Coby before catching up to Luffy.

[in the town]

man, place looks like a ghost town said Luffy. I don't get it. This town is rumored to be a happy go town... I have a bad feeling about this captain said Coby in fear.

just like that out of nowhere a girl with orange hair came running to them in a hurry.

boss!, your here. They've been on my track since I got it said the orange haired girl.

hmm? Asked Luffy confused. Who... said Coby before getting cut off by the girl.

no time little sidekick, their almost here said the girl. Who the hell are you calling sidekick?! Yelled Coby being offended.

there she is!. And look here, she's got friends, how cute said one of three men with swords.

your in big trouble. That map belongs to us, the Buggy pirates said pirate 2.

B...B...Buggy pirates... said Coby in complete fear mode right now.

quick boss, you have to stop them said the girl as she ran behind Coby. What are you...? Asked Coby confused. Play along ok?! Whispered the girl.

I've got this said Luffy cracking his knuckles.

you sure Luffy? Asked Coby in fear.

let's see what ya got kid. Put 'em up said pirate 1.

just like that Luffy sucker punched pirate 1 out.

you son of a... roared the other two before pirate 2, got punched in the face and sent to the ground.

as for pirate 3. He got a head but.

the three Buggy pirates were out cold.

wow, your pretty strong for a skinny guy said the girl. Thanks I try said Luffy with a smile.

can someone please tell me what's going on right now? Asked Coby.

sorry, I'm Nami, the three there are one of Buggy the clowns men said Nami.

you sure about that, cause last I heard. The Buggy pirates are pretty tough. These guys were easily taken down said Coby.

will it seems they were the weak link of Buggy's crew said Nami with a smile.

Will I'm Coby. This is Luffy said Coby.

yo said Luffy. So what's the Buggy pirates doing here? Asked Coby.

this town is their base said Nami looking a little ticked off. I take it your no fan of pirates huh said Coby seeing it in her eyes.

their evil, every last one of them. Why can't they just all die? Asked Nami.

because not all pirates are evil said Luffy.

Luffy? Asked Coby confused by that.

how can you say something so dumb?. Their evil, every last one said Nami mad.

I'm not evil, I'm good said Luffy with a smile.

your a pirate too? Asked Nami surprised by this.

yep, I'm going to be king of the pirates said Luffy still smiling.

Nami looked at Coby to see if Luffy was serious or not. It's true, had not been from him, I'd still be a slave to the Alvida pirates said Coby.

you were a slave... to pirates... and now your one to said Nami. It's complicated said Coby.

how is it complicated? Asked Nami.

he saved my life. As well a town from a evil marine captain, I own him that said Coby.

a pirate... saving lives, yeah right said Nami in disbelief. It's the truth said Coby.

what are you doing here pirates? Asked Nami in a hateful manner.

we're here to shop, nothing more said Luffy still smiling.

yeah right. If you are here for shopping, then how about you help me shop for some treasure said Nami. Sure, where to? Asked Luffy smiling.

there's a bar their hanging out in. Your going to help me steal it from them said Nami.

what?! Asked Coby in shock. Sure said Luffy smiling.

thanks said Nami. Anytime said Luffy happily.

out of the question! Said Coby out loud.

why? Asked Luffy confused.

this is Buggy the clown... Buggy, the, flipping clown. A pirate with a bounty of 15,000,000 Barrie's. The same pirate who kills people, be it an innocent person or a fellow pirate said Coby.

yeah we know said Nami. Not me, I just learned of him today said Luffy. Are you that dumb? Asked Nami.

it seems like it said Coby. What are we waiting for. Let's get going said Luffy ready for anything.

you heard your captain. Best follow me said Nami with a smirk.

(damn it, I can't believe I'm doing this thought Coby).
