Sorry about the long wait because i had to redownload the entire story one paragraph at a time only to lose motivation halfway. I didn't have the original backup as i continued getting skill. It's a good thing that i was going to re-edit this story, making it into a single. The rewrite and first chapter will be redone using the entire previously written down and downloaded content for better continuity.
This story takes place far later after the events of the Fountain of Youth POTC Movie. I have made up my mind when it comes down to structure when writing so expect a story, Captain Jack Sparrow will still become an infamous character in the story of Onepiece but before anything I want to point out I could not find a complete list of his Crew Members New or Old just that he has around thirty three-ish. Otherwise i will add my uncomplete character notes to the bottom of the Chapter for reference. Another change will be Cannon relevance to the story, my previous attempt had them stuck in the South Blue this story will now take place in the Grand line. The final change will be giving Jack a Devil Fruit or additional power since my past attempt left him weak for a long time, the name will be included on the bottom with the Character Notes already thought of some of the powers.
With all that Onepiece and all it's associated characters belong to Oda Eiichiro, Captain Jack the character and POTC lore belong to Disney, otherwise I still own nothing or else i would have been swimming like Scrooge McDuck.
Jack was dreaming of the time he was chained to the mast of the Black Pearl awaiting the creep of the Kraken by the traitorous Miss. Swan and although he had been tied to a ship betrayed and left alone without any hope for escape he smiled even though the jaws of the colossus began to scream a terrible vengeance only to spit out his hat once again.
Sparrow, Sparrow, Sparrow wake up sparrow where have you gone this time Captain Salazar something long dead from his nightmare's had come. Jack watched the completely wraith like and undead like a soaked man far with pale skin and drowned lips and hair swaying as if he was under the sea. Little Sparrow where have you gone something far too much like a nightmare he felt even the breath on his neck stand on edge.
Fire was what he dreamt of next nothing but heat and pure sweat the sounds of the sea and a monkey. Jack Sparrow was having unpleasant dreams as he lay on a piece of driftwood that had washed ashore some time ago. Sparrow was laying down upon it in the middle of the blasting of the blazing sun's light, Jack awoke as a significant soreness spread throughout his entire body. Even as his layer of sweat drenched clothes baking him from the inside be felt the drench and some slight breeze hit him as he lay atop the sandbed.
Jack's Clothes were wet and stuck on his frame as he went under, a dream, he was in a dream where he'd finally reunited with his long lost ship The Black Pearl. It was a cause for celebrating for the entire crew finally they were reacquainted with his long lost treasure. Sadly the only thing that remained of his once great Ship was a bottle that was his treasure stuck inside like a miniature figurine. Blackbeard's curse had made the once remarkable ship the fastest in all the seas stuck in a bottle his loyal crew would only agonize cause the bottle he carried would not fill the hole of bread and rum his crew of land pirates demanded.
Now he remembered everything that had occurred afterwards with the shattering of Poseidon's Trident he shattered all the curses in the sea. It was a strange thing to remember but he had also adopted Barbosa's little monkey Jack but wait where the bullocks was he now.
He startled himself awake still laying on a familiar enough sandy beach, from what Sparrow could recall of the previous night that the empty bottle in his hand attested towards. Trying to recall what had occurred the previous day Jack stayed still on the beach.
They had brought an entire island's worth of booze from Hector's personal storerooms where they had met with some of his old crew members such as Cotton now happily reunited with his Parrot. Before they had set sail they had also scrounged around Hector's old treasure room aboard his ship luckily not everything was lost since Jack had salvaged Triton Hector's sword that Hector had gained by slaying Blackbeard. Jack had always known Hector to be a terrific guy except for the time he'd gotten Jack horribly and unapologetically mutinized upon. Packing up whatever they found was necessary like all the leftover booze found for instance.
Jack decided to try out whether or not the sword still functioned or if it became a regular blade, he picked up the sword and tried to control the Ship's rigging. Just as he was about to give up and set the finely crafted sword in the shape of a fish fin down a rope snagged itself on one of the crew members launching him overboard. "Ah.. So it does still work" Jack said while his crew hurriedly tried to all save the man overboard while calling "Man overboard". Of course it would work when Poseidon's Trident was destroyed it only destroyed every curse in the sea other material objects that were enchanted like his compass or this magic sword for example had not been rendered useless by the Trident's own destruction.
Before they had set off on another voyage they had deemed it necessary to have a party and speak of the next stop, it was Master Gibbs who had mentioned to have memorised the entirety of the Mao Kun Map but so had Jack, they were off to be officially visiting the Isles beyond far far from any understanding to sailors home home of a gigantic said to be filled with mystical treasure the Rainbow Mist. It held the attention of the crew members it had an unknown nature and is said to only occur once every thousand year's in a random location.
"But how will we know where it's going to pop out if it always happened to have had a random location" Pintel had asked. "With the map we had memorised we know that the place it will pop up is sometime between now and the next day, but listen up this mist is said to completely stop the aging and hunger of those who venture inside. With very limited time he used Triton to quickly ready the ship. If the legend of it was real he may want to study the effects it had.
"This Mist is unnatural Captan" Said Marty as they ventured inside. Already they could see the shipwreck's of the Pirate Graveyard everywhere they looked. At first they found the treasure they had been searching for within every single large and abandoned ship. Yet no people had ever been found. The some Ship's were left with food and supplies just left there as if they had left mere moments ago. Almond Water was practically the only thing they had in abundance the strange clear containers that held the water were a marvel to the crew a single staple of positivity in the endless mist. Because of the abundance of clean water the crew actually showered with the clean almond water leaving them smelling better than before as they tried to escape the mist with the treasure. "We've run out of food captain" Master Gibbs said to the Captain, "How so, i haven't felt any hunger in many wretched week's if that clock we fashion is correctly working" Jack responded as he pointed to his crew member's counting while spinning Scrum on a Executioner's Wheel. "It was the monkey captain he had gotten into the storeroom a while ago and had eaten all of our spare food" Gibbs. "Look around Master Gibbs we are surrounded by the sea and all the food and water we can drink are you not content with what we have" Said Jack. "Aye. That's true but what about the rum" Gibbs said. "What about the Rum?" asked Jack. "Jack the real reason i pulled you aside is that we've run out of rum" Gibbs replied.
"I'll kill that Monkey" Jack started pulling out his pistol. "Jack, stop it wasn't the monkey we have just been sailing around in this infernal mist but you have to stop and realize that we've been here longer than any of us realize to have drunk their ship's cargo worth of Rum"
Jack realized it too nothing ever aged down here not even the food. A place you can never leave once you've entered and nothing was left here but a ship's graveyard, don't get Jack wrong it did wonders to improve the overall hygiene level of his crew but all of these Ship's probably split in half because of their quality didn't match the Pearl's once the mediocre ship's broke the only escape was only the bottom of the ocean for them. The mist was so bizarre he wanted a way out of here as Jack pulled out and looked at his compass once again. By magic the Compass stopped it's eternal spinning because Jack wanted a way to escape.
Once Jack had woken up from his sweat he remembered how he had gotten out. Jack had ordered his crew to set sail he didn't know for how long they set sail but it was only in a single direction his crew during had gone and learned how to sing and Ragetti learned how to write in cursive it sent many shivers up his spine to have many of the dimmest crew learning. It left him wondering many nights how long they been stuck inside.
"Way hay up, he rises. Way hay, up he rises. Way hay up, he rises. Early in the morning" The crew sang What Will We Do With a Drunken Sailor as wind's continued to blow and the Pearl continued to sail. They had learned many more song's that they hadn't known before and the crew ignorant of it all had started asking questions about their sober streak.
Eventually some gracious light had decided to shed light on where exactly they been setting course by showing his compass pointing backward. "Stop the ship turn around" Command Captain Jack. "Tree ahead Captain" a man on the mast with a telescope shouted down to Jack who had been steering. Surprise was written on the faces of all the crew since they haven't seen a tree in the mist before but sure on rare occasions they happened to see huge rocks. When the Crew all gathered to witness the tree standing alone on a big rock. Jack used the compass all while walking back and forth just to check it was here his Compass pointed to.
"The way out of this mist is on that Island with nothing but a single tree" Jack accidentally said aloud. It was a small island with not much on it except for a few thousand leaf's. "Has Jack gone mad" the rest thoughtfully began to think. "Wait that tree has fruit" Ragetti happily contributed towards the conversation. "Men pick the fruit" Captain Jack Ordered. "Aye, Pick the fruit" they all shouted. Jack watched as Ragetti crossed onto the tree with a rope the tree was able to support his body weight.
One by one Ragetti sent over the tiny fruit's and one by one Jack started checking them in case it was what he was looking for they were tiny little things almost like cherries or grapes. If it wasn't the fruit he would begin to check the leaf's next. He stood there checking them one by one until his compass pointed to a specific one. The color or rather colors were different than the rest "This was what he'd been searching for this entire time a way out" it looked incredibly poisonous and rotten. Showing it to the Crew they didn't have much to say seeing as how it only looked pretty. "What if it's poison?" Mullroy asked. "Captain we talked it out amongst ourselves and decided we rather like it here food and water isn't scarce and we still have plenty of Rum insist if this fruit is the only exit out of here we talked it out amongst ourselves and we think it best that you have em, eat it" Gibbs said.
"Worry not lads, ill find a way to get the rest of you out" Jack spoke. Jack looked closer at the fruit in his palm it had a glossy blue color with spotted color surrounding all sides around it. "Do i eat the fruit" He thought as the crew and pets watched in anticipation. "Master Gibbs, if i die you are to be in command as for the rest of you we long since run out of of Rum but be safe"
He swallowed the little fruit whole, he gave a painful expression by holding his throat breathing agonized. Why because it had tasted awful rotten and bitter at the same time he wanted to vomit but couldn't like he tasted everything the sweaty garments of all his past crew wrung out and all the sweaty socks.
The crew watched hat's off in respect as The great Captain Jack Sparrow breathed his last on the floor. Looking away tear stricken and distraught no one except The Monkey Jack noticed as the very mist surrounding him slowly vanish him from the realm. With a small jump the monkey landed on the captain and disappeared with him.
Not to have judged some of his crew for their lack of manners but strangely Jack awoke in the sweat of his own filth. With sand definitely in place's where the sun never shined for decades at a time. He layed there sprawled like it was some regular occurrence.
Laughing at finally feeling the sand again he looked around but found no one. His crew had probably gone and left him on the sand at their party but they managed to fail him yet again by leaving him here. Wait where was here understandably he had no specific order in place to return drunken pirates to their ship, but it was practically an unsaid order for crew to return him a Captain someone of a much higher standing position than them to the Captain's Cabin.
Was his ship probably just surfing off the coastline along the sea of the beach catching pleasant waves or was it simply prodding in the shallow territory and waiting whilst he awoke. His thirst was high, his tongue felt dry, his body boiled and he needed water in the direct sunlight awake and aware, "when was the last time he remembered the last time partaking in a drink of water, not rum" he spent the entire night drinking or had he.
Jack felt entirely too tired in the sand he felt like a boiling pot it was almost a reasonable thought to stay unmoving. "Almost there" he thought trying to regain his bodily function and sense of direction again. "sniff sniff" Jack sniffed something wonderful hitting his senses "Aha it was the sea, the most beautiful and vast body of water streaching out over in each direction for millions of Kilometer's. It's water spanning in every direction until it became each horizon touching every sunset. He felt heavy headed at the moment but that smell gave him strength and yet, no the smell was vastly different but not entirely wrong either. It was just a tad different than the sea he'd known while he was a young apprentice serving under a Captain, sweeter than what he was usually used to. Jack could feel the difference in the wind as well as the clouds that passed him overhead.
Jack now able to move his head he felt like it was enormously heavy and hard to turn. He saw that nothing was around him except for a Jungle and obviously he smelled terrible from the amount of sweat he produced on himself before he woke up. Jack was lurching his back straight trying to up right himself up off the ground. Jack felt the strained clothes sticking to his body as soon as his feet were underneath him and his bearings returned to normal.
Now that Sparrow awoke to the sights all around him his sensory skills began returning again. In all honesty looking down at his bed the Sand, Small Rocks, Broken Planks, and Clamshells all around wasn't really the most practical thing to fall asleep on.The first thing he would do once he returned to the ship would be finally setting sail towards Tortuga to quench his thirst for Sea Wenches and more rum.
To find his ship and sail off, Jack checked his pockets and opened up his compass. The Sea Witch Tia Dalma had bartered this Compass for a personal favor. Once the Compass was opened it would begin to spin stopping only to the one thing you want most. The two things Jack wanted most was his ship and crew
Opening it the compass starts rapidly spinning and pointing to the Jungle. Eventually he shuts it quickly after shaking it a few times. Jack thoughts strayed looking on out into the sea again showing no signs of life.
Jack desired the shade from the nearest canopy of trees to protect him from this inferno of sunlight. Just as Sparrow was nearing the canopy of shade he noticed something look at him hanging like a Monkey. It wasn't just any Monkey it had a vest so it had to be Jack the Monkey. Sparrow tried to look around again with the help of the Compass for more crew but this wasn't the tiny island Jack remembered he had decided to rest upon, no this was a Beach with a clear view of the Ocean before him. The Compass was uselessly spinning and the Monkey was of no help either. Jack had sat down thinking of his most recent memories inside the mist.
Looking around once again Jack could remember that this was not an island he recognised, the air seemed fresher the fruits much larger. Many more fruit's that hung had looked more exotic than what he would ever consider to be standard and normal. Some fruits looked to have wildly diffrent colored flowers hanging as well.
It was the same with the animal's that he seen around the beach, the one's that he could spot as everything around looked somewhat familiar yet it wasn't. Now that Jack had a chance to examine them closely again the birds that just made an interesting noises looked like easy game. Somehow this cross between a Hen and Parrot made rooster sounds with a Parrot voice. The fat thing sat atop a giant palmtree with strange eyes that looked of in different directions for dangers. It looked quite stupid looking.
Changing targets Jack witnessed the Native Monkey's here weren't bothered by his presence that showed they didn't experience any Human interaction in their ecosystem. They were in fact a type of jungle monkey completely normal except for the fact that the older they looked the more tails they owned. It was all just highly unusual due to the fact that he never heard of any creature like them before.
Jack began making his way deeper into the jungle just to find some civilization or a vantage point when he heard a roar like a lion. The Monkey Jack took off at the sign of trouble not wanting to become it's next meal. The next thing Jack knew he was trying to get out of the dangerous Jungle he did not wish to become a meal. Walking back toward of the forest entrance a Lion had found him all alone. Jack slowly pulled out his sword just as two more thuds had sounded off behind him
Wih Jack's back turned the lion went in for the kill the two sounds behind him had only been more lion's ready to ambush him as well. Jack simply reacted by stabbing the first lion, his adrenaline began pumping into his system helping him survive the situation. Whenever the lion's would bite scratch or try and maim Jack the attacker would pass through him slightly wet like passing through a light mist.
In Jack's mind he had been jumped by three aggressive animals and needed to survive the encounter. High with adrenaline he slashed and shot back, only when a lion had bitten his head off that he noticed he wasn't feeling hurt.
That attack should have finished him off but it didn't Jack couldn't believe it but he sustained no damage. Watching closely he noticed that his limbs were reforming from a reflective colored mist that jogged his memory. Eventually everything he blocked out suddenly started returning everything from the time within the mist.
