Chapter 3

There once was a man named Gold Roger, who was King of the Pirates. He had fame, power and wealth beyond your wildest dreams. Before they hung him from the gallows, these were the final words he said: "My fortune is yours for the taking, but you'll have to find it first. I left everything I owned in one place." Ever since, pirates from all over the world set sail for the Grandline, searching for One Piece, the treasure that would make their dreams come true.

Eight Beams of light shot down from the sky, the Straw Hat pirates flag waved in the wind, while Naruto and Luffy stood side by side each other as they both grinned before throwing up their fists at the bright shining sun.

Arittake no yume wo kakiatsume

Sagashimono wo sagashi ni yuku no sa

One Piece

The Going Merry sailed along the sea, while Mikita and Nami were both relaxing on the deck. Ussop looked off to the bright horizon, while Zorro practiced his swordsmanship slicing off at the air. Sanji stood in the kitchen diligently working away on the stove, as Kurama sat on the figurehead. Chopper stood with his equipment watching as Naruto and Luffy trained against each other, trading rapid punches against each other with excited grins on their faces. Will smiled at this, before she noticed Vivi's forlorn look in her eyes.

The country of Alabasta stood as the sands blew, while Crocodile smirked as he gripped it in his hand as six shadows hovered above him with crimson red eyes.

Rashinban nante juutai no moto

Netsu ni ukasare kaji wo toru no sa

Will unleashed a surging blast of lighting down upon Baroque Works ships. Kurama began blowing away everyone that stood in his bath with a feral grin, and Chopper punched incoming soldiers. Sanji stood on his hands spinning, while kicking away enemies, with Zoro blowing them away with the swing of his swords.

HOKORI kabutteta takara no chizu mo

Tashikameta no nara densetsu ja nai!

Nami swung her staff unleashing a blast of thunder, while Mitika laughed as she hovered in the air before crashing down in a loud thud kicking up dust, as Ussop fired off shots from his slingshot.

Kojinteki na arashi wa dareka no

BAIORIZUMU nokkatte

Omoisugoseba ii!

Naruto and Luffy stood in a whirlpool of sand as Crocodile stood before them, raising up his hook. Luffy unleashed a barrage of punches, which only went through the warlord while Naruto charged in with a Rasengan, but it had no effect before they were both blown away by Crocodile sending them skidding back. Both boys looked at each other, as a white aura covers Luffy and a red one covered Naruto, before they both rushed towards their opponent with loud cries of battle

Arittake no yume wo kakiatsume

Sagashimono wo sagashi ni yuku no sa

POKETTO no KOIN, soreto

You wanna be my Friend?

We are, We are on the cruise! WE ARE!

Hope that you all enjoy the chapter.

(The desert, sometime later)

The Straw Hats were walking through the desert, having left the kung fu dugongs to keep the Going Merry safe.

"Wow, I can't believe that those seals of yours can actually keep us cool" Chopper said with a smile, as he gestured to his desert cloak, which had some seals painted on thanks to Naruto.

"No problem. I'm supposed to help the crew right?" Naruto asked with a smile.

"You call these weights helping?!" Ussop yelled, as he struggled to keep up, because of the bands on his wrists and ankles, which had seals on them.

"I think they're okay" Zoro said with a shrug, as he had some on like Ussop.

"Plus, yours and Nami's are only 10 pounds a limb lightweight" Will said with a scoff.

"Why did you make us wear these anyway?" Nami asked, as she gestured to her own seal weights.

"So we can get stronger, right?" Luffy asked curiously, as he tilted his head at Naruto, who nodded at his captain.

"Exactly. And before you whine Nami, Naruto likes strong girls" Will said with a knowing smirk.

Nami gave a light blush at this, along with Vivi who was not wearing any weights, since she wasn't technically on the crew.

"Relax Nami. I don't expect you or Ussop to be as strong as Luffy or me, but you should at least be able to fight, if you have too" Naruto said

"Well, at least I have my new weapon Ussop made for me," Nami said with a grin, as she pulled out three blue pieces of metal pipe.

"You practice with that at all?" Will asked curiously.

"…..damn it!" Nami yelled, as she threw her weapon on the ground.

Kurama laughed at this, as he walked with his new weapon attached to his back in a temporary holster, until he got a more permanent one.

"Relax, Will can help you train when we make camp for the night" Naruto said, giving Nami a comforting smile.

Nami nodded at this, as she smiled

"So Vivi, how long until we reach the rebels home base?" Sanji asked with a raised eyebrow.

"It will be a long walk. A few days if we are lucky" Vivi said.

"Couldn't we just summon those toads of yours?" Kurama asked with a scowl.

Naruto paused at this. "...huh" he said dumbly, as he realized he hadn't thought of that.

"Oh, you fucking idiot!" Kurama yelled, as he couldn't believe how stupid his friend was.

"Wait, what do you mean summon toads? Is that some new Devil Fruit power?" Chopper asked curiously.

"No no. Naruto has a contract with the toads, and he can summon them" Will said with a smile at Chopper.

"Ok, stand back. I'm gonna give this a shot" Naruto said with a grin, as he bit his thumb and made hand signs, before he slammed his hand on the ground.

"Summoning Jutsu!"

A puff of smoke soon appeared, and when it cleared, they saw what looked like 5 toads about the sizes of large horses standing before them.

"Cool!" Luffy, Chopper and Usopp yelled with stars in their eyes at this.

"Hey! What's the deal?!" an orange one yelled out, as he looked around.

"Gamakichi, is that you?" Naruto asked with a grin

The orange toad looked at Naruto and smiled at this. "Hey big bro! Where have you been? Pops has been worried about you" he said, as he hopped over to Naruto.

"Been busy buddy. Me, Will and Kurama joined a pirate crew, and -"

"Say what?!" Gamakichi yelled in surprise.

"Relax, they are more adventurous pirates, not the bad kind" Will said to the toad with a smile, as she walked over.

"Oh, hey Will" Gamakichi said with a smile back, as he liked Will cause she liked toads.

"Anyway, can you and your friends give us a ride across the desert?" Naruto asked, as he looked at the other toads he had summoned.

"Crossing a desert? Hah! And I thought this would be hard" Gamakichi said with a laugh.

Naruto smiled back at this, before he turned to the others.

"Won't the heat of the sun be too much for you?" Vivi asked in worry.

"Nah, we can handle this. Plus, we have techniques to cool us off. Now, everyone load up and don't scratch the paint!" Gamakichi said with a grin.

"Ok. Luffy and Zoro, you get one toad. Nami and Will get one, while Chopper and Usopp get one. Sanji, you get one with Kurama, and Vivi can ride with me" Naruto said to the crew, who all walked to their toads.

"Why do I get to be with the furball ?" Sanji asked, as he got on his toad.

"Cause of that stunt with the belly dancer outfits" Will said, as she and Nami got on their toad.

Zoro and Luffy got on their toad, with Luffy smiling excitedly while Zoro looked at the blade on the toad's back as he sat down.

"…..toads are swordsmen?" Zoro asked curiously.

"No, you can't spar with them," Naruto said simply, as he helped Vivi onto Gamakichi's back.

"Yea. You hurt a wart on them, and I'll fry you!" Will yelled at Zoro, with her hair sparking, while waving in the air.

"How fast are these guys?" Chopper asked, as he and Usopp sat down on their toad.

"We should make good time, if we don't run into any surprises," Gamakichi said, as he was confident in their abilities.

"Ok, lead the way," Naruto said with a grin, as he pointed in the direction they wanted to go.

"Ok men! Follow me!" Gamakichi yelled, before he hopped off.

The other toads croaked at this, and took off after Gamakichi.

"This is awesome!" Luffy laughed loudly.

"Awesome nothing, you idiot!" Nami yelled, as she struggled to hang on, but was caught by Will.

"I got ya" Will said with a grin, as she held Nami close.

"D-don't get fresh with me. Kurama told me your a pervert" Nami stuttered out

"Don't worry, I'm saving that for Naruto. Though I gotta say, you're well equipped. Are those DD cups? " Will said with a cheeky grin, as she gripped Nami's chest, as she hugged her from behind.

Nami went beet red at this. "I should charge you for that" she growled out.

"Hmmm, feels like they are still growing too" Will said with a smirk.

"Unhand me pervert!" Nami yelled, as she tried to get out of Will's grip.

"You love it" Will said with a giggle, as she let Nami go and let Nami grab the back shirt of their toad, so she could hold on.

"Are all you toads so fast?" Chopper yelled at his toad.

"Nope, this is my specialty trained squad, little tanuki!" Gamakichi yelled.

"I'm a reindeer!" Chopper yelled out at the lead toad, who just laughed at this.

Vivi was holding onto Naruto tightly, as they rode on Gamakichi's back.

"Relax Vivi, I won't let you fall," Naruto said with a smile at the desert princess, as he held her close.

"So Naruto, is she another one of your girlfriends?" Gamakichi asked with a grin.

Vivi blushed bright red at this.

"Nah, she's just a friend. I'm not that lucky buddy" Naruto said with a smile.

"Hah! You keep being a sweetheart, and you may lure her into being a filthy pirate!" Kurama yelled, as he laughed

"Vivi the pirate princess. It sure does have a nice ring to it" Will yelled out with a grin.

Before anyone could respond, Naruto spotted something ahead of them in the desert.

"Is that a giant purple lizard?" Sanji asked curiously.

Vivi looked over, and paled at what she saw. "That's a Sandora Dragon. They're the biggest reptile in all of Alabasta. They hide under the desert to wait for their prey. They have razor sharp claws and fangs, but hardly use them, as they swallow their prey in just one go" she said.

"….let's fight it!" Gamakichi yelled with a grin, as he looked at the lizard as he jumped up.

"Be careful, cause they usually hunt in pairs!" Vivi yelled out.

Suddenly, another Sandora Dragon shot out from under the sand underneath the toads, with its mouth wide open.

"WWAAHH!" Nami, Chopper and Usopp yelled out in fear.

"Gamakichi, oil!" Naruto yelled out, as he jumped off Gamakichi.

"On it bro! Ok men, douse them both!" Gamakichi yelled, as he and his fellow toads made hand signs and fired what looked like oil at the two Sandora Dragons.

Naruto made several hand signs, before he took a deep breath and fired a massive blast of fire from his mouth at the oil covered Sandora Dragons.

The Sandora Dragons roared as they were lit on fire, while the toads landed nearby in the sand and watched them burn.

Naruto landed on Gamakichi's back next to Vivi. "You ok?" he asked her, who had a stunned look at this.

"Y-you just killed two Sandora Dragons" Vivi stuttered out

"Well, Gamakichi and his friends helped," Naruto said with a chuckle.

When the fire finally died down, Luffy jumped off his toad and ran over to the charred lizards. "Hey Sanji, can we eat these?" he asked with a grin.

Sanji walked over and inspected the large lizards. "Sorry Luffy, but they are burned to their core. So they won't taste good" he said, as he shook his head.

"Dang it Naruto! They probably would have tasted good too!" Luffy yelled, as he waved his arms over his head in frustration.

"Nice to know you have your priorities straight, captain" Will said with a flat tone.

"Eh, I agree with rubber brain. They probably tasted good" Kurama said, as he sat on his toad.

"Everyone just get back in your seats, we have a lot of ground to cover" Nami said, as she rolled her eyes at this.

"Say Vivi, what do you think about turning the fangs and claws into weapons?" Naruto asked her curiously.

"What, are you thinking of taking up a weapon babe?" Will asked curiously.

"Well, since Kurama's taken the marine captain's weapon for himself, I might as well get one of my own," Naruto said with a shrug.

"What are you thinking?" Kurama asked with a cocked eyebrow.

"No idea. Not really a blade guy, if I'm being honest. Maybe some kind of bo staff" Naruto said.

"Are you copying the Third Hokage?" Will asked, as she remembered the stories he had told her about the old man.

"Hey, a bo staff is cool, woman!" Naruto yelled, as Luffy and Sanji got back on their toads.

Will laughed at this. "Hey, I'm not judging. I'm thinking of using senbon needles myself" she said.

"That plus electricity ouch" Usopp said with a flinch, at the idea of being stabbed by an electricity charged senbon

"Me, Ace and Sabo used metal pipes as weapons when we were kids," Luffy said with a fond smile, as he remembered using ordinary pipes to fight bandits and pirates.

"Whose Sabo?" Chopper asked.

"I don't wanna talk about it," Luffy said with a small frown.

"Ok, let's get moving," Naruto said, as he nodded at Gamakichi.

Gamakichi nodded at this, before he and the other toads took off hopping again.

(Later)

The sun was now setting over the desert, and the crew were still making their way across the desert.

"We should find a place to make camp," Nami yelled out.

"How much further until Yuba, Vivi?" Sanji yelled.

"Not far" Vivi said as she looked around, and paused as she spotted something in the desert.

Usopp was able to spot it too, thanks to his new eagle eyes. "Hey, is that a town?" he asked.

Vivi looked at this, and after a few moments of looking her eyes widened. "That's Yuba!" she yelled happily.

"Wow. we made good time" Will said with a grin.

"Ok men, that's our destination. Let's go!" Gamakichi yelled, as he hoped towards the town with his fellow toads following.

Soon they arrived outside the town, and the toads let everyone off.

"Ok everyone, let's set up camp and start dinner" Nami said, as she and Will got off their toad.

Naruto jumped off his toad and helped Vivi down, before he looked at Gamakichi. "Thanks for the ride" he said with a nod.

"No problem bro. If you need a ride again, call us. Oh, and call pops soon. He is worried about you" Gamakichi said.

Naruto nodded at the toads at this, before they all disappeared in large puffs of smoke.

"Uh Vivi, are you sure this is the right town?" Ussop asked, as they all looked at the town.

Vivi nodded at this. "Yes, I'm sure of it," she said.

"Really? It looks like a hole to me" Kurama said, as he looked around.

"Watch it. It's not their fault, it's Crocodiles fault" Naruto said with a glare, as he looked at the town.

"Is anyone here?" Luffy yelled, as he looked around.

They all heard something to the side, and they all turned and saw an old man approaching them. He was dressed in desert gear, while carrying a lit lantern and a shovel.

"P-princess Vvi?" the old man stuttered out, as he looked at Vivi.

"Toto, is that you?" Vivi asked, as she recognized the old man before she ran over to him.

"It is you! I'm glad you're ok" Toto said as Vivi hugged him.

"Ok everyone, let Vivi talk to her friend. We should set up camp and -" Nami was saying, before she was cut off.

"I'm on it" Naruto said, as he made some Clones, who all walked over to the bags of supplies, and got to work.

"Good. While Sanji makes dinner, you two are coming with me!" Will yelled, as she grabbed Nami and Usopp and dragged them off.

"Hey! What's your problem?" Ussop asked, as he was dragged away.

"Time to train you two a bit. Welcome to hell!" Will said with a mad grin at the navigator and sniper.

Usopp paled at Will's grin, before he changed into his full eagle form and tried to fly away, but Will's grip kept him in place.

"Hey brat, mind giving me some Shadow Clones to spar against" Kurama yelled out.

"Spar with Zoro. He's a better sparring partner for you" Naruto yelled back, as he followed Vivi along with Luffy.

"That's true, but I don't want to wrangle the eternal lost samurai," Kurama said with a snicker, as he drew his new jutte off his back.

"Oi! Do you want some of this, fluffy?!" Zoro yelled, as he drew his katanas.

"Oh, I don't want just some of it. I want the whole thing!" Kurama yelled, as he and Zoro clashed and started to fight.

"Hey! Take that shit somewhere else!" Will yelled, as she looked back as she dragged Nami and Usopp to a makeshift training ground that some of Naruto's Clones had set up.

"Bite me Wilma!" Kurama and Zoro yelled, as they looked away from each other, as they clashed.

"I'll kill you!" Will bellowed, as she attacked both Kurama and Zoro with electric charged fists and feet.

"…..this crew is nuts," Chopper said, as he watched Will fight Kurama and Zoro.

"Yup. Now come on and help me set up the campfire" Sanji said, as he lit a cigarette.

Nami and Usopp tried to leave, but some of Naruto's Clones grabbed them, and pulled them over to the makeshift training ground.

≤0o0o0o0≥

(Later)

The crew were all sitting around the campfire, eating some food while Toto was sitting with them, eating some stew.

"Thanks. I haven't had a meal this good in a while" Toto said to Sanji with a smile, who nodded at him.

"I can't believe things are this bad" Will said, as she frowned and looked at the abandoned town.

"Yeah. It's also why Koza and the others left for Katorea" Toto said with a frown.

"So we just wasted our time coming here?" Nami asked with a groan, as Vivi had explained to them where all the towns and cities were in Alabasta.

"This whole thing is Crocodile's fault" Naruto said with a growl, as he saw what his actions had done to this town, and he couldn't imagine how many people were suffering because of Crocodile and his plans.

"So, what's the plan now?" Kurama asked.

"We go to Katorea and -" Vivi was saying, before she was interrupted.

"Nope," Luffy said, as he finished his food and shook his head.

"What do you mean nope?" Sanji asked with a scowl.

"I mean no. I'm not going" Luffy said simply, as he sat back with his arms crossed.

"Why would you -" Vivi was saying, before she was interrupted.

"This is a waste of time," Luffy said simply with a shrug.

Vivi froze at this while Naruto, Kurama and Zoro said nothing, as they realized what was going on.

Vivi soon gave a scowl, before she walked over to Luffy and slugged him in the face.

"What do you mean this is a waste of time, you idiot?!" Vivi yelled out, as she raised her fist again to slug Luffy, who was unaffected.

But Naruto was behind her and grabbed her wrist, stopping her.

"Vivi, stop. Luffy doesn't mean saving lives is a waste of time" Naruto said, as he knew what Vivi was probably thinking.

"Then what does he mean?" Nami asked, as she wasn't getting this.

Will nodded at this, as she finally understood. "He means this isn't gonna end, unless we defeat Crocodile once and for all" she said.

Zoro and Kurama nodded at this in agreement.

"We can stop the fighting, if we get to the rebels and -" Vivi was saying, before she got cut off.

"Princess, you're a moron," Kurama said as he scoffed.

Sanji went to kick Kurama, but he blocked with his jitte.

"How dare you insult Vivi, you stupid fox!" Sanji yelled at him.

"Back off, or I'm taking your other eye!" Kurama yelled back.

"What do you mean, Kurama?" Chopper asked curiously.

"I mean, do you really think Vivi will get anywhere near the rebel's leader? Crocodile probably has agents in the rebel army that have a kill on sight order on you" Kurama said, as he looked away from Sanji.

Naruto gave a nod at this. "And he probably has some in the royal army to stop her getting to her father too" he said.

"So the only option is going after Crocodile," Will said, as she nodded.

"I don't want to sacrifice you all fighting Crocodile" Vivi said in worry.

"Vivi, stop. We're your friends, and friends do this. So stop worrying, and leave this to us" Naruto said, as he patted Vivi on the head, comforting her.

Vivi stopped at this, before she started to cry and nodded.

"Ok captain, what's the plan?" Will asked Luffy with a smile.

"Find Crocodile, and beat him to a pulp" Luffy said, punching his fists together with a grin.

"I like this plan, simple and easy to remember. The first one that didn't make me think I was on the short boat of pirate crews" Kurama said with a fanged grin.

Zoro snorted at this, while Usopp laughed, as Nami and Will rolled their eyes, with Sanji ignoring this.

"I don't get it," Chopper said as he tilted his head in confusion.

"He's calling this crew retarded" Will said flatly.

"I'm not fireproof" Luffy said simply.

Kurama, Usopp, Sanji and Zoro fell over at this, and started to laugh hard at this, with Kurama slamming his fist into the ground, while Usopp was on his back, kicking his feet in the air.

"Oi" Nami groaned, as she slapped her forehead.

"You are lucky you're likable captain," Naruto said with a chuckle.

"Ok crew, let's rest up. For tomorrow morning, we head for where Crocodile is" Luffy said.

"Where is that?" Naruto asked Vivi, as he figured she would know

"His main base of operations is in Rainbase, in the Rain Dinners casino" Vivi said as she dried her eyes.

"A casino?...I smell an opportunity" Naruto said with a smile, as he rubbed his hands together.

"Oh jeez" Will said with a chuckle, as she had an idea what Naruto was thinking.

"We're gonna bankrupt a warlord of the sea? I'm in!" Kurama yelled with a grin.

"How're you gonna do that? Steal all his money or something?" Sanji asked with a cocked eyebrow.

"I'm gonna go in and gamble and keep winning, drawing attention to myself. Meanwhile, Will and Kurama will go into the back, and steal all Crocodiles money" Naruto said with a smirk.

Nami's eyes widened at this, before she looked at Vivi. "How much does Crocodile make with his casino?" she asked calmly.

"Uh, on average? About a quarter billion berries a month" Vivi said.

"Oh Naruto!" Nami yelled with a smile, as she was instantly next to Naruto, and hugged his arm.

"Yes Nami?" Naruto asked with a smile.

"If you steal me some money, I'll go on a date with you" Nami said, as she batted her eyelashes at him.

Sanji looked at this in disbelief, before he slumped to the ground. "Why Nami-swan? Why?" he said, with a cloud of depression over his head.

"Sorry bud, but it looks like you have to look for love somewhere else" Ussop said, patting Sanji on the shoulder.

"Are there women that desperate?" Kurama asked with a raised eyebrow.

"So you're all gonna try and beat Crocodile?" Toto asked with wide eyes at the crew.

"You bet old timer" Will said with a grin, as she gave him a thumbs up.

Toto smiled at this, as some tears fell down his cheeks.

"Ok, let's all rest for the night. We have a fight tomorrow" Naruto said to the crew, as he separated himself from Nami.

"Ok, women over here, and you guys can fight for the other rooms" Nami said, as she dragged Vivi to one of the better looking houses.

The guys all went to some houses nearby, while Will locked eyes with Naruto, and smirked as she gestured to the girls house.

Naruto smirked back at this and nodded, knowing what his girlfriend was thinking.

≤0o0o0o0≥

(Later with Nami)

Nami and Vivi were in their room ready for bed, and were laying down in their beds.

"I wonder where Will is," Vivi said, as it had been half an hour since they all went to their rooms.

"Hmmm. Let's go find her" Nami said, as she got up off her bed.

Vivi nodded at this, as she got up to follow Nami.

As they left the room, they walked past a room that had its door ajar.

"Ah!~" Will's voice was heard moaning from inside the room.

Nami and Vivi paused at this.

"…..you don't think?" Vivi asked Nami, as she blushed a little at the implications of what they heard.

Nami said nothing, as she approached the slightly open door and took a peek inside, which made her eyes widen, while she blushed deep red.

(Lemon scene)

Inside, she saw a naked Naruto on top of a naked Will on a bed, thrusting away at Will, who was holding Naruto's back as she scratched him while moaning with no shame.

"Ah! I missed this" Will panted, as her tongue hung out of her mouth.

"Fuck, me too" Naruto groaned, as he didn't slow down.

"I know you did stud. So you better be good to go all night" Will said with a saucy grin, before she moaned as Naruto gripped her high DD cups and licked at them, as he continued to thrust into her pussy.

Nami pulled away from the door, blushing deeply at what she saw.

"So she's?" Vivi asked with her own blush.

"Yea. Her and Naruto are in there" Nami said, as she left to go back to their room.

Vivi didn't move, as she was surprised at this, as she thought about what could be happening in there.

"Ah! I'm almost there!" Will moaned out from inside the room.

"Ugh, me too. Agh!" Naruto yelled out, as more thuds were heard.

"Let's do it together" Will was heard moaning.

Vivi went red at this, before she ran after Nami, while covering her ears as she did.

(Lemon over)

≤0o0o0o0≥

(The next day)

Everyone walked out of their houses, ready for the day.

"Morning everyone" Naruto said, as he and Will walked out of their house.

Everyone nodded at them, except for Nami and Vivi, who were blushing and avoiding looking at them.

Kurama gave a slight sniff at Naruto and Will, then smirked at Nami and Vivi, knowing what was going on. "Why do you two smell like sweat and shame?" he asked.

Naruto groaned at this, while Will rolled her eyes at the fox Minks immaturity.

"Huh?" Chopper asked curiously, not understanding.

"Don't you dare" Will said with a glare at Kurama, who scoffed at this, while some of the other crew members realized what was going on.

Naruto coughed into his fist at this. "Ok everyone, let's get going" he said, as he readied himself to summon Gamakichi and his team again.

"Wait! I have a gift for you, Luffy!" Toto yelled, as he ran over holding a small barrel with a straw in his hands.

"Toto, did you spend all night digging for water for us?" Vivi asked with a frown at the old man.

"Well, Luffy helped a little," Toto said with a slight shrug.

"So that's where you were," Zoro said as he looked at Luffy, as Toto gave him the barrel.

"Make sure you save that for an emergency Luffy" Naruto said, as he summoned Gamakichi and his team

"Sure thing" Luffy said with a nod, as he used some rope to tie it round his neck.

"Ok, where are we heading?" Gamakichi asked, as Naruto and Will got on his back, while Vivi went with Nami.

"Change of plans. We're gonna go after Crocodile, and kick his bitch ass teeth in!" Will yelled with a grin as she smiled.

"Yeah!" Luffy yelled as he held up his arms in excitement, as he and the others got on their toads.

"Now that's a plan!" Gamakichi yelled with a grin, as he and his fellow toads took off hopping.

Toto smiled at this, as he had a feeling the rain would return soon.

≤0o0o0o0≥

(Later)

The crew and their toad steeds were making their way across the desert, and soon they spotted a town in the distance.

"Is that it Vivi?" Will yelled over her shoulder at Vivi.

"Yes, that's Rainbase. And the big building in the middle is Crocodile's casino" Vivi said with a determined look.

"Ok Gamakichi, stop here. We can walk the rest of the way" Naruto said, as he looked down at his summon.

Gamakichi and the toads stopped just outside town, and let everyone off.

"So what's the plan?" Zoro asked curiously, as he jumped off his toad.

"We kick Crocodile's ass!" Luffy yelled.

Bonk!

"We need a plan, you moron!" Nami yelled, as she hit Luffy on the head.

"But that is the plan. Find Crocodile, beat him up and that should save Vivi's home" Luffy said, rubbing the bump Nami gave him.

"This is a warlord Luffy. He's more dangerous than Arlong, and he was a Fishman" Usopp said, as he shivered a bit.

"Relax. I have a plan that should work, and he won't even see it coming" Naruto said with a grin.

"Uh oh, I smell a prank" Kurama said with a snicker, as he recognized this look on his friend's face.

"Well, you know pranks are my specialty," Naruto said with a wide smile.

Gamakichi laughed at this, as he knew Naruto's pranks were legendary.

≤0o0o0o0≥

(Later)

Naruto and the rest of the crew walked into the casino, and saw that it was actually a very nice place.

"Huh, not bad" Sanji said, as he smoked his cigarette.

"Yea. Too bad it's run by a jackass" Will said as she looked around.

"Let's just find this asshole, and kick some ass," Kurama said as he gripped his jitte.

"Well, I'm surprised you all headed for here, instead of going to the rebels" a female voice said.

Everyone looked, and saw a woman that was slightly older than Naruto, who was dressed like a cowgirl. She was wearing a purple hat, a purple cleavage-exposing corset along with a matching miniskirt, both which had white ornaments hanging from them, and purple boots.

Naruto looked at her, and his eyes widened in surprise as he looked at her, but quickly composed himself.

"Hello!" Will said with a grin, as she checked out the woman.

"That's Miss All Sunday," Vivi said with a glare at the woman.

"Yea, so stop being a thirsty freak," Kurama said with a roll of his eyes.

"You're not gonna stop us from getting to Crocodile" Zoro said, as he gripped his katana and glared at Miss All Sunday.

"Oh, on the contrary, Mr Bushido. You're his special guests" Miss All Sunday said with a smile.

She then pointed at a door in the back room. "Just go through that door, and follow the arrows," she said with a smile.

"Let's do this!" Luffy yelled, as he took off running.

"You idiot! It's obviously a trap!" Nami and Usopp yelled, as they and the others followed.

Miss All Sunday chuckled at this, before she noticed Naruto wasn't following. "You're not following your friends?" she asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I am. I'm just curious why you put on a fake facade of being happy, when you're obviously not" Naruto said simply, as he walked past her and followed his crew.

Miss All Sunday froze at this, before she watched Naruto, surprised he saw through her so easily, before she quickly composed herself, not noticing some shadowy figures running on the ceiling, and heading for the vents of the building.

(With the crew)

Luffy was running down a hallway, with his crew behind him. Luffy was running towards a sign that pointed left that said VIPs this way.

"Left!" Luffy yelled, as he turned left.

"This so screams trap" Will said with a scowl.

"That's what happens when your captain is stupid" Kurama said with a scowl of his own, as they all turned left with Luffy.

And soon they reached a dead end.

"Huh?" Chopper asked in confusion, as he looked around.

"Is this for VIPs?" Usopp asked curiously.

"Wait for it" Will said with a scowl, as she saw what was coming.

The floor underneath them all suddenly opened up, and they all fell into the hole.

"I'm gonna kill you Luffy!" Nami yelled, as they all fell for this obvious trap.

"And I'll help her! I'll even hide the body!" Will yelled.

They all fell into a new room in a pile.

Naruto, Will and Kurama landed on their feet, before they looked around and saw they were in a jail cell.

"Welcome to my casino princess" a voice said in an amused tone.

Everyone saw a man sitting at a table, with a cocky look on his face. His black hair was slicked back, and he was wearing a large overcoat over a suit. They all saw that he had a hook where his left hand should be.

"Crocodile" Vivi said with a growl, as she glared at the warlord of the sea.

"And you must be the pirates that took pity on the princess, and decided to try and help her. It's too bad your adventures end here" Crocodile said with a grin at the crew.

"Wow, your a cocky fucker aren't you?" Kurama asked with a grin.

"Well, I have you all trapped in a seastone cell, and you have nobody to save you. So I think me being cocky is warranted" Crocodile said with a shrug.

Naruto smiled at this and laughed lightly, before everyone else started to laugh with him.

"And what do you find so humorous?" Crocodile asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Oh, nothing really. I just didn't expect this to be so easy" Naruto said as he smiled.

"It's been 10 minutes since we entered, and everyone in the casino should be moved out by now" Will said with a grin.

"What are you on about woman?" Crocodile asked with a slight scowl.

"Ok, quick question, you do know me and Usopp can fly right?" Will asked.

"Yea yea, Mr 2 told me" Crocodile said, waving his hand dismissively.

"So here's the question jackass; why didn't me and Will fly away, when you used that trap door trap?" Usopp asked with a grin.

Crocodile paused at this, as he thought about this "…..you wanted to be here" he said, as he glared at them.

Naruto nodded at this, as he and everyone else started to emit smoke from the top of their heads …..almost like a fuse.

Crocodile's eyes widened at this, as his prisoners all flashed brightly.

(Outside)

Naruto and the others were outside the town, sitting in the sand while playing cards as they waited.

"Are you sure this plan is gonna work?" Sanji asked, as he took a fresh card.

"Yea, I don't like the idea of doing this, while the casino is filled with civilians" Vivi said with a nod, as she looked a little worried.

"Relax princess. I sent some Clones in to knock everyone out, and drag them out" Will said, as she took a new card.

"And, 3 2 1" Naruto said, as he counted down and pointed at the casino.

BOOOOM!

The casino blew up in a massive explosion, sending debris everywhere.

"I hope that you got all that money out, before you blew it up blondie," Nami said, as she gave Naruto a piercing look.

"I sent Clones to do that, so don't worry" Naruto said as he got up.

"I still say we should have confronted him ourselves" Luffy said with a pout, as he crossed his arms.

"Don't worry, rubber brain, you will get your fight" Kurama said with a grin, as he pointed at the sky, where what looked like sand was making its way to them.

The sand soon formed into a body, and turned into Crocodile, who was glaring at them with a look that could kill.

"Heh, so you do have a Logia power. I owe you a cola, Will" Kurama said with a grin, as everyone got ready to fight.

"I'll paint the sands red, with your blood for destroying my base" Crocodile growled out, with a fierce glare.

"Then let's do this!" Luffy yelled, as he launched himself at Crocodile. But when he clashed with him, he turned himself into sand, causing Luffy to almost stumble as he fell through Crocodile.

Naruto made a hand sign, and bit his thumb before he slammed his palm on the floor.

"Summoning Jutsu!"

A massive cloud of smoke engulfed the rest of the crew, while Luffy was fighting Crocodile.

When the smoke cleared, a large red toad with a blue coat, a katana in his webbed hands and a smoking pipe in his mouth was revealed.

"About time you summoned me brat!" Gamabunta yelled with a booming voice, before he blew some smoke out of his mouth.

"Talk later, old man. I need you to get my friends out of here!" Naruto yelled to the massive toad.

"I am not gonna help you just like that you brat -"

"Oh wow, he's so cool!" Will yelled with a smile at the massive toad.

"Yea, this guy is cool!" Usopp and Chopper yelled together with smiles.

"…fine. But I want saki later brat!" Gamabunta yelled, deciding he liked these guys as he chuckled.

"Now that's my kinda toad," Zoro said with a grin.

"Will, you know the plan. You get Vivi to her dad" Naruto said, as he looked at his girlfriend.

"You got it. I'll stick with Vivi, and if anyone so much as looks at her wrong, I'll fry them" Will said, as she gave him a thumbs up.

Suddenly Crocodile was behind them, with his torso turned into sand, so he could fly up to them.

"You won't escape me so easily-" Crocodile was yelling.

CRACK!

Before Kurama swung his jitte at his face, and sent him flying back to the ground below.

"Let's do this, sand bitch! My brother has more street cred than you!" Kurama yelled, as he jumped down after the warlord.

Naruto chuckled at this, as he jumped after Kurama to help him.

"Ok, hold on!" Gamabunta yelled, before he took off hopping away from the city.

Naruto and Kurama landed on the ground, and saw Crocodile picking himself up, while wiping the side of his mouth, giving them a glare.

Luffy was next to Naruto and Kurama and scowled at this.

"How did you get a hit on him?" Luffy asked Kurama.

"Seastone, rubber boy" Kurama said, as he held his jitte with a smirk.

Crocodile growled at this, as he didn't expect new pirates to have Seastone weaponry.

"Ok everyone, stay alert and don't -" Naruto was saying, before he got cut off.

"Gum Gum Rocket!" Luffy yelled, as he launched himself at Crocodile, but this did nothing as Luffy went right through him.

"Looks like unless we can discover his weakness, we're gonna depend on you Kurama" Naruto said with a scowl, as he threw some kunai at Crocodile, which went right through him.

"Leave it to me!" Kurama yelled, as he charged at the warlord and swung his jitte at him, while covering it with Electro. But he instantly dodged to the side, and swung his hook at Kurama.

Kurama blocked with his jitte, while Naruto ran to Luffy and pulled him out of the sand

"Grrr, I really hate this guy. He's just like Smokey!" Luffy yelled.

Crocodile swung his hand at Luffy, sending what looked like a sand blade at him but Luffy dodged, barely being touched by the attack.

"Ahhh, my leg!" Luffy yelled, as he saw one of his legs was now dried out like a mummy.

"Fuck" Naruto growled, as he glared at Crocodile and charged at him.

Crocodile readied his hand to fire another attack at Naruto. But the sand in his hand vanished, right before Naruto slugged him in the face.

"Heh, got ya moron" Kurama said with a fanged grin, as he was revealed to be behind Crocodile, holding his jitte onto Crocodile's back, causing him to not be able to turn into sand.

Crocodile growled at this, as he swung his hook at Kurama, which caused him to jump back, giving the warlord his powers back.

"You're getting annoying mink," Crocodile growled out.

"Good, then I'm doing my job, punk ass," Kurama said with a grin.

"Yeah, cause he does love to annoy people" Naruto said with a nod, as he threw a kunai at Crocodile.

"Gum Gum Gatling" Luffy yelled, as he ran over while throwing rapid punches at Crocodile.

Crocodile just turned into sand, and took the attacks like they were nothing.

When Luffy stopped, he jumped back to Naruto's side.

"...how did you fix your leg?" Naruto asked him curiously.

"I drank some of the water Toto gave me," Luffy said simply, holding up the small barrel.

Naruto and Kurama paused at this, as their eyes widened slightly before Kurama started to laugh while Naruto smiled, as they both realized something.

"So that's your weakness" Naruto said with a confident grin at the warlord.

"Well, it does make sense if you think about it," Kurama said with a snicker.

"Ok, I'll give us the opening, and you two lay a beatdown on him," Naruto said with a grin, as he went into Sage Mode and made some hand signs.

"You got it! Let's kick his ass Kurama!" Luffy yelled as he readied his fists.

"I'm right behind ya!" Kurama said, as he readied his jitte.

Naruto jumped into the air, and took a deep breath before he opened his mouth and unleashed a huge torrent of water down on Crocodile.

Crocodile's eyes widened at this, as he was engulfed by the wave of water.

When the water subsided, Crocodile was coughing out some water, while soaking wet.

"H-how is this -" he was coughing out, before Luffy slugged him in the gut, making him keel over

"Water plus electricity equals bad news!" Kurama yelled out, as he swung the Electro charged jitte at Crocodile's face.

"Yaggghhhhhh!" Crocodile yelled, as he was engulfed in electricity, which was worse since he was covered in water.

When the electricity subsided, Crocodile was smoking as he was still standing, but was on his last legs after such an assault.

"T-this is impossible. How can I lose to unknown pirates?" Crocodile growled out, as he tried to stay on his feet.

Naruto then grabbed him by his throat, as his Rinnegan eyes were activated.

"You have a good Devil Fruit…..I'll take it" Naruto said with a glare, as he grabbed Crocodile's chest as his hand glowed.

"Oh shit. You must have pissed him off" Kurama said with a grin.

"What's he doing?" Luffy asked curiously, as he was unaffected by the electricity.

"He's gonna rip out his soul" Kurama said simply, as he knew Crocodile had pissed Naruto off by hurting this country.

"He can do that?!" Luffy yelled in surprise.

Crocodile growled at this, as he tried to pull away from Naruto. But with a mighty pull, Naruto pulled back and ripped out the warlord's soul.

As Naruto held his soul in his hand, he saw what looked like a cactus with swirls on it fall from the soul onto the ground, before Naruto let go of the soul and let it fade into nothing.

Crocodile's dead body then fell to the sand.

Naruto sighed at this, he powered down out of Sage Mode, before he looked to the side and spotted Miss All Sunday approaching them.

"Hmmmm. So you actually beat him. I'm surprised" she said as she approached them.

"Are you here to avenge him?" Kurama asked, holding his weapon in case she attacked.

Miss All Sunday chuckled at this, as she shook her head. "Of course not. I have no chance against a man that can rip out someone's soul. What fruit is that, if I may ask?" she asked Naruto.

"Not a fruit. It's more of a sage power" Naruto said.

"Yea, he's a sage ninja" Luffy said with a nod, while smiling widely as he crossed his arms.

"Hmmm, interesting" Miss All Sunday said, as she observed Naruto with a calculating look.

"Are you looking to fight, or jump on him like a stalker or something?" Kurama asked with a snicker, before an arm appeared on his shoulder, and smacked him in the back of his head.

"Hey! What the fuck!" Kurama yelled, as he looked around for who hit him

"Cool!" Luffy yelled with a smile as he saw this.

"So what do you want Miss All Sunday?" Naruto asked curiously, as he picked up the Sand Sand fruit.

"Well, since you all killed my boss, and from what I can tell you're gonna clean up the rest of Baroque Works, I have nowhere to go now and I am wanted by the government" Miss All Sunday said nonchalantly with a shrug.

Naruto thought about this for a moment, and then looked at Luffy. "Kurama, you stay here. Me and Luffy need to talk" he said, as he pulled Luffy to the side.

"What's going on?" Luffy asked curiously, as Naruto pulled him to the side.

"I think you should ask her to join your crew," Naruto said seriously.

"Huh? Why?" Luffy asked curiously, as he tilted his head in confusion.

"Several reasons actually. She seems to be smart, and she has information we may need for our adventures. Plus, information is always useful" Naruto said, as he knew as a ninja, information was sometimes the most valuable.

Luffy tilted his head at this, as he looked back at Miss All Sunday curiously.

"Plus, I think she could use some actual friends," Naruto said, as he felt while Miss All Sunday put on a good front with her emotions, her eyes said differently to him.

"Hmmm, ok. Hey, Miss Sunday! You have nowhere to go right?" Luffy yelled, as he ran over to her and Kurama.

"Indeed I don't, thanks to you" Miss All Sunday said with a nod.

Luffy smiled and giggled at this.

"Oh god" Kurama groaned, as he could tell what was coming.

"Join my crew!" Luffy yelled at Miss All Sunday, as he smiled widely.

Miss All Sunday raised an eyebrow at this, and laughed lightly at this. "Very well. You're the best option I have at the moment. I offer my services to you and your crew" she said, as she nodded and bowed her head.

"Ooh, kinky" Kurama said with a snicker, before again an arm appeared on his shoulder and smacked him. "Oi! Cut that shit out!"

"If you're gonna join, we should know your name," Naruto said with a chuckle at Kurama.

"The names Nico Robin," Robin said with a smile.

"….pretty name" Naruto said after a brief pause and a nod.

Robin nodded at this. "Ok, since you all have business at the capitol, I'll meet you back at your ship" she said, as she walked away.

"Tell the dugongs you're friendly!" Luffy yelled after her.

Robin chuckled at this as she nodded, finding it funny that this crew kept kung fu dugongs as pets.

"That woman is annoying" Kurama growled as he rubbed his head.

"I don't know. I kinda like that she doesn't take your shit" Naruto said with a grin.

"Please, you just like she's an E cup," Kurama said with a scoff.

"Oh, shut up. We need to get to the others and help clean up the capitol" Naruto said, as he summoned Gamakichi to give them a ride, with Naruto picking up Crocodile's body and sealing it into a scroll.

Meanwhile, above them what looked like rain clouds were forming above them, before it started to rain.

"Huh, looks like beating the sorry excuse of a sand master brought the rain back" Kurama said with a grin, as Gamakichi hopped off to the capitol.

"What are you gonna do with Crocodile's fruit?" Luffy asked Naruto curiously.

Naruto thought about this, as he had an idea but he wasn't sure yet.

≤0o0o0o0≥

P.O.M and Kfbanime87 were sitting down to relax, when the office door was blown to pieces, which began moving in slow motion, while Deadpool calmly walked into the room with a grenade launcher, hitting the broken door pieces away

Papa's home, and he's not happy: Deadpool said, as he tossed the grenade launcher away

What is it, Wade? Kfbanime87 asked with a groan

I'm grounding you, because you can't seem to make you mind up on what fanfic to do next, young man: Deadpool said, as he pulled a nail gun from behind his back

Oh, for fucks sake! I was having trouble, because the guy I normally go to for help was in the hospital. And before you start, he's fine you mental case! Kfbanime87 said with a frown

Oh. Then I won't need this to nail your feet to the floor, until you made your mind up: Deadpool said, as he tossed the nail gun out an open window

Anything else, you mental case? P.O.M asked with a roll of his eyes

Yeah. I'm looking forward to the She-Hulk series, as I'm glad someone else, other than me, is breaking the fourth wall: Deadpool said with a double thumbs up

We mean fic wise, you moron: Kfbanime87 said with a scowl

Well, I hacked into your guys account, and found out that you plan of giving the Sand Sand fruit to -: Deadpool was saying, before he was cutoff

Bang!

Kfbanime87 then shot the merc in the head.

You think he would learn by now: P.O.M said with a sigh, while shaking his head

That shit hurts! You sap! Deadpool yelled at Kfbanime87

The fuck you call me?! Kfbanime87 yelled, as he got in Deadpool's face

I called you a sap, Mr fan of fruit basket! Deadpool yelled back, before Kfbanime87 grabbed him by the neck and started to choke him

Hey, no shame in that: P.O.M said with a shrug

You choke like my grandma: Deadpool said, as Kfbanime87 slammed his head on the ground

Do you know what you're planning to do next? P.O.M asked curiously

Titans, or we could start Sailor Moon finally. Did you catch up on the information on the anime that's not the first dub? Kfbanime87 asked P.O.M

Sailor moon's first name is Usagi Tsukino: P.O.M said with a proud smile

And Uranus and Neptune? Deadpool choked out, as he was still being strangled

Oh, for fucks sake. They are lovers, not cousins! Kfbanime87 yelled

Yea. Even when I saw the original dub, I was thinking they had a more lover vibe, despite what they were saying: P.O.M said with a roll of his eyes

I think Pluto would be a good mother figure to Naruto: Deadpool said, as he tried to escape Kfbanime87's grip

Noted, but probably won't be doing that. So stay tuned: Kfbanime87 said

What's the pairing? P.O.M asked.

Kfbanime87 sighed at this. Ok, he's gonna be with ….. really Wade? Kfbanime87 asked, as he saw Wade was playing a drum set

Too much? Deadpool asked

Ok, fuck this. I'll tell you later: Kfbanime87 said, as he picked up Deadpool and threw him out of the window, breaking the window in the process

Punk ass! Deadpool yelled, before a crash was heard from cars crashing

P.O.M looked at Kfbanime87 and opened his mouth, before Kfbanime87 pointed a gun at him: Tell me please? P.O.M asked nervously

.fine. It's gonna be just Mercury, Mars, Jupiter and Venus: Kfbanime87 said

Ah. Ami, Rei, Makoto and Minako. Good choices: P.O.M said with a grin, and a thumbs up

..wow, you actually did your research: Kfbanime87 said with a smile

Of course I did. Anyway, later folks! P.O.M said as he waved at the reader, along with Kfbanime87
