-19 years later-

Sasuke was currently watching the water as he waited to sense the Haki of a familiar and close person he knew long ago.

When they split, they made a promise to meet here at this point of time.

Sasuke wondered if he remembered.

As much of a idiot as he was, Sasuke doubt he would forget about something like this.

Sasuke looked down at his attire.

He had on new clothes he brought a while back. (Sasuke Shiden Clothes.) He thought the clothes suited him well.

On the left side of his belt lay one of the reasons of a high bounty against him, the Shodai Kitetsu. On his right side lay the sword of Ace. These were two of the many weapons he had. He could summon his staff at will so that's why it wasn't on his belt.

Sasuke looked up as he could sense the familiar Haki after all these years.

He teleported to his location.

-Cutscene-

"Who are you guys??" Luffy asked as he just woke up out of an amazing sleep.

The group of pirates repeated it to him.

"I'm starving do you have any food?" Luffy said to a random pink-haired kid.

"Oh so you want to mock us and ignore us huh?! Then die!!" Two of the pirates slashed their swords down at Luffy.

-CLANG-

Their swords were shattered as a new person arrived protectively in front of Luffy.

"Long time no see...brother." A smile was on Sasuke's face, but he kept his attention on the pirates.

Luffy's eyes widened with astonishment. 'Could it really be...' He thought unbelievably.

"Haha you think you're cool hotshot?? W-" The pirate was knocked out with a punch before he could say anything else. The other two pirates gasped with shock before running off terrified.

Sasuke scoffed. What cowards. Sasuke then turned towards Luffy. He grunted as he was hit with a full forced hug.

"SASUKE!!" Luffy said with a wide and happy smile on his face as he hugged Sasuke tightly.

Sasuke smiled and brotherly rubbed his hair. "Nice to see you too. You've grown." Sasuke looked at his revealed muscles. "And finally got big boy muscles. I can still kick your ass though." He smirked.

Luffy released the hug and looked at Sasuke with a competitive smirk. "Wanna test that older brother??"

Sasuke's smirk widened. "Maybe some other time." Sasuke then looked at the pink-haired kid. "Who are you?"

His eyes widened slightly at being addressed. "M-my name is Coby." He nervously said.

"Well Coby, I'm Sasuke Uchiha and he's Monkey D. Luffy. Make sure you stay close behind us so you don't get hurt." Sasuke said and Coby nodded.

"Ugh I'm so hungry. Can we eat something Sasuke??" Luffy groaned as he rubbed his growling stomach.

Sasuke shook his head with a grin. "Always the same Luffy. Let's see what's on this ship." Sasuke said and the three left the room.

The trio walked throughout the ship and eventually found something.

"Yay apples!!" Luffy excitedly said as he could see a crate of apples. He immediately started munching away.

Sasuke grabbed one himself and took a bite. "So those pirates must be raiding this ship right Coby?" Sasuke asked him.

Coby nodded his head. "Yes Sasuke, they are commanded by Lady Alvida."

"Are there any boats on board?" Luffy asked as he continued munching on apples.

"A few I think." Coby said.

"Good because that whirlpool destroyed mine. Are you a pirate or a passenger?" Luffy asked.

Coby then explained to them how he was trapped by the pirates and in exchange of him living, he had to be a cabin boy.

"You don't have to worry anymore. We will get you out of here." Sasuke said.

"Do you both have a dream or goal for setting sail?" Coby asked Luffy and Sasuke curiously.

Sasuke answered first. "My dream is to help Luffy achieve his dream while becoming stronger to protect the weak." He said.

Coby then glanced at Luffy. "Well what is your dream then??"

Luffy adjusted his straw hat and smiled a wide smile. "My dream..is to become the King of the Pirates!! I will reach it even if it kills me!"

Coby's jaw dropped. "But..wouldn't that make you a pirate too??"

Luffy nodded with a nonchalant smile.

"That's imp-" Coby started but then was interrupted by the top of the ship room breaking.

Alvida stood with a scowl on her face and looked at Luffy. "You don't look like Zoro the pirate hunter." She then looked at Sasuke and her face expression changed. She gave him a good once over. 'O-oh m-my am I-I dreaming??" She thought flustered. She lowered her club a bit and nervously played with her hair. "H-Hey I'm the beautiful Alvida. Y-You a-are??" She asked Sasuke.

Luffy looked at Sasuke with a teasing smile. "Hey older bro, I think the fat lady likes you hehe."

Everyone's jaws dropped with surprise. Sasuke shook his head with amusement. Classic Luffy.

"Why..YOU!!" Alvida swung her club down at Luffy.

It was suddenly stopped by..a staff??

Sasuke lifted the club with ease with the Ruyi Jingu Bang and looked at Alvida.

"It's Sasuke Uchiha..Extend." Sasuke held the staff in Alvida's direction and it hit her in the...nether region and extended.

"OH SASSSUKEEE!!" Alvida moan-yelled as she disappeared in the sky.

Coby looked at it with surprise and shock. Luffy was laughing his ass off.

"N-Nice one haha Sasuke. Let's all head to the top." Luffy said and the two followed him.

Sasuke looked at the group of pirates and narrowed his eyes.

"Your leader is gone. Give us a boat and we'll be on our way." He said.

"Tch! Who does he think he is?! Got rid of Alvida and think he can order us around?! No way! Get him!!" One bald, tall, and strong pirate said and the group ran at them.

"AHH!!" Coby screamed.

Luffy smirked. "I handle the left side and you the baldy and right older bro??"

Sasuke nodded his head and got ready.

"DIE!!" The bald pirate slashed his sword down at Sasuke.

Sasuke blocked it with his forearm and it shattered.

The man's eyes widened. "W-What??"

Sasuke grabbed the man by the scruff of his shirt and then easily launched him in the air off the ship. Sasuke then ducked under 5 horizontal sword slashes aimed for his head and leg swept each of the pirates. While they were falling, Sasuke gave fast side-kicks to each of them and they landed hard against random spots on the ship.

'Finished with my side.' He thought as he looked at Luffy.

"Gum Gum Pistol!!" Luffy shot his arm at the group of pirates and they launched back and disappeared in the sky.

"Nice one Luffy." Sasuke said as he approached him.

Luffy chuckled and rubbed his head. "Thanks Sasuke."

Coby looked at the two with an unbelievable face expression.

plus 50 REP with Coby

"What??" Luffy said as he Sasuke and Coby turned their heads to see Marine ships.

"We have to go now." Sasuke said as he went to get a boat.

Coby thought back to what Sasuke and Luffy said.

"But..I now decided that I want to join the marines." He said with determination.

"You can't join them now. They will think you are a pirate. Now let's go." Sasuke said with urgency as he dropped down an extra boat. The three then hopped on it.

Sasuke and Luffy noticed an orange-haired young woman on an extra boat. She looked surprised seeing them.

Luffy gave her a wide friendly smile. Sasuke looked at her and nodded.

He noticed a tint of red on her face as they left.

"So Luffy.." Coby started. The boat was now far away from the Marine ships. "If you're searching for the One Piece then you have to be heading for the Grand Line right??" He asked.

"Right and that's why I want to create an extra strong crew. I heard Alvida mention..Zoro??" Luffy asked.

"Oh yeah Zoro..he's being held in a Marine Base. What makes you ask of him Luffy?" Coby asked.

"Well if he's strong as you all say, I want to ask him to join my crew!" Luffy smiled.

Coby's jaw dropped with shock.

Sasuke himself have heard of Zoro before in his travels. He looked forward to meeting him.

"So older bro, can you tell me some stories of your travels?? I know you have a lot of cool ones!!" Luffy excitedly asked.

Sasuke smiled as he started to reminisce. Indeed he did. He then began to tell Luffy and Coby one of his many fond memories.
