Chapter 3: New Abilities

It had been a few days since the Thousand Sunny has become haunted… everyone had grown used to it… well almost sometimes Chopper and Usopp almost had heart attacks when a sprit popped up unexpectedly from nowhere… however good things came too… such as Sanji finding a girlfriend… sort of… kind of… there was something going on between him and Hanako… it was rather creepy and with Natsume's help, Zoro came up with the new nickname "necrophilia man"… Sanji wasn't the only one that developed a friendship with one of the guardian ghosts, Robin and Nino had become very close and often chat for hours about books they read, Zoro and Natsume also had developed a friendship as well, while Natsume does have a fan girlish crush on Zoro it didn't go as far Sanji and Hanako, however they did become rather close, Natsume also pulled some strings and did a favor for Zoro by getting on of the best dead sword makers to repair Yubshiri though it would take a few days… in return Zoro began to teach Natsume to become a better swordswoman. Another thing was that Luffy was given all 7 badges of the Guardian Sprits for some reason... Also there were some touching reunions, both Bellemere and Dr. Hiruluk came for visits… while Bellemere didn't approve of Nami becoming a pirate or her bounty she did approve of the crew and how close they were… while Dr. Hiruluk was amazed how much Chopper had grown and was proud that Chopper had become a fine doctor… though did sweat drop at Chopper's bounty…

However not everything was okay… one day it happened… an evil sprit wanted to fight… the fight wasn't going well… the only ones fighting were Luffy, Sanji, Zoro, Franky and Natsume while Mirror girl helped out with defense as her abilities allowed her to act like a shield… the 5 weren't doing too well, while Zoro did managed to get in a good few hits in. The other Straw Hats, Guardian Sprits and Bellemere who visiting.

"They… can't… fight… like… this…" said Chairman who was in pain for some reason.

"But what's wrong?" said Robin who noticed that Chairman was pain.

"I'll explain later.." said Chairman.

"You can pull though…" called Hanako who seemed to be in pain as well.

"Yes I can!" called Sanji happily.

"Do you think they really can?" said Bellemere.

"I hope so…" said Nami.

The weevil sprit who looked like a monster prepared for it's final attack… that's when a miracle happened!

"Super special exorcism!" came a voice in a blinding light. Everyone was blinded by the light… they heard the evil sprit cry out in pain once the light died out they saw a miko with long orange hair put into a ponytail and holding a gohei standing where the evil sprit once stood.

"Well I guess I can't handle amateurs to deal with evil sprits…" said the miko, "But I think I might need to teach my daughter a thing or two…"

The miko turned around and she looked just like Nami… but a little older in her mid to late twenties… she could pass of as her older sister… or…

"Could she be my…" said Nami.

"That's right Nami… I'm your mother…" she said then looked towards Bellemere, "I mean your birthmother…"

Later in the meeting room Chopper was banging up the injuries from the fight while Franky recharged his batteries. They of course talked with Nami's birth mother Sakurako.

"I'm sorry hat it took me so long to arrive… I didn't know that the swordsman had limited knowledge on his sword…" said Sakurako.

"What?" said Zoro.

"Oh yes I forgot to tell you… the three Kitetsu can fight demons and evil sprits but it will only do so for it's true owner otherwise it will kill him… and since you're not dead yet you're that true owner…" said Chairman.

"That does explain why Zoro was the only one who could hit it…" said Luffy.

"Before I explain more…" said Sakurako, she bowed before Bellemere, "I like to thank you for raising my daughter to be a strong young woman…"

"You're welcome…" said Bellemere.

"Now as I was saying that people in our family have extremely strong spiritual powers and Nami is no exception…" said Sakurako.

"The down side is that Nami rarely does anything…" said Zoro.

"What's that supposed to mean!" yelled Nami.

"But he's right…" said Sakurako.

Nami sweatdroped at her birthmother.

"You can't go though life and just do nothing and fight when you have to yo have to…" said Sakurako. She stopped during her speech… when she felt something touch her butt, she crew angry vein, "Stop it you perv!"

She grabbed the person from behind her and threw the person onto the table… the person was a man with black hair in his mid thirties and was dressed like a monk, "I take it you're the cook's antecessor…" said Chairman.

"That's right…" said the monk getting up, he looked towards all the girls in the room, "She's hot (Nami), she's hot (Robin), she's smokin' (Hanako), she's cute (Natsume), she's hot (Sakurako), she's um… too young (Mirror Girl), she um… moving on (Bellemere)…"

"Hey!" yelled Nami, Bellemere, Sakurako and Natsume hitting the monk in some way.

"Now as I was saying…" said the bruised up monk, "I am Sanji's grandfather… his father is still alive… much like the hot chick's family…"

"Nami…" grumbled Nami.

"Right… Nami… we can fight evil ghosts using spiritual powers but unlike Nami's family it take different forms with each person…" said Sanji's grandfather, "That's why I plan to train you and teach more about our family's history…"

"I can tell it in a second… Sanji ancestry is full of lechers…" said Sakurako, "It's a very famous family in the sprit world…"

Everyone sweatdroped in the room.

"So is this meeting over?" said Luffy.

Wait one more thing!" said Chairman.

Chairman hit Luffy in the head with a chair… all the Guardian Sprits in the room flinched with pain.

"Ow what was that for…" sauid Luffy getting up.

"Just showing that if you get hurt, us Guardian Sprits get hurt since you're the keeper of the Badges!" said Chairman.

"Oh…" said Luffy.

"That does explain the pain I saw you in earlier…" said Robin remembering what happened in the fight.

"But if Luffy takes off one of the badges before he gets hurt then that Guardian Sprit won't get hurt…" explained Nino.

"That's good…" said Sanji, he could easily trick Luffy by taking off the pink badge then kicking him the face… he looked at the looks Natsume, Nino, Mirror Girl and Red Mantle were giving him… they all knew what he was thinking.

"The meetings now over…" said Chairman.

"Okay Nami… the training starts now…" said Sakurako.

"Okay…" said Nami.

"Nami… I'll vista in a few days…" said Bellemere.

"Okay…" said Nami.

Bellemere disappeared causing Usopp and Chopper to nearly have another heart attack. Nami and Sakurako left the room.

"Okay Grandson… time for you training as well…" said Sanji's Grandfather pulling on his ear to get him to leave the room.

"Luffy I have to show you something…" said Chairman.

"Okay…" said Luffy.

And both left the room.

"We should keep as far away from Luffy while he's learning to summon us…" said Nino.

"Learning to summon you?" asked Usopp.

"Yeah…" Mirror Girl.

Not too long later by the Lion's Head…

"Okay Luffy I need to tell you why you were chosen to keep those badges…" sauid Chairman.

"Because I'm the captain?" asked Luffy.

"Well also because your Grand Father… because of you're the third of the Spiritual Triangle, it also mean you're the weakest as ministers don't have that much spiritual energy… but that dos mean that you can summon the sprits… it will help if there's an emergency…" said Chairman.

"Really! That is so awesome!" yelled Luffy, "Hey how do I do that?"

"Okay... with the other 6 badges you between your fingers…" said Chairman.

He began to show Luffy where to hold them…

"Now repeat after me…" said Chairman.

"Okay…" said Luffy.

"There's an emergency by the Lion's Head! Everyone, come forth and help out. WELCOME!" said Chairman.

"Right…" said Luffy, "There's an emergency by the Lion's Head! Everyone, come forth and help out. WELCOME!"

The 6 badges began to glow and emitted lights form them… that's when Hanako, Red Mantle, Mirror Girl, Natsume, Nino, Haruo and Bones appeared out of nowhere.

"What wrong?" asked Hanako.

"He was just trying it out…" said Nino, "So what try was it?"

"My first…" said Luffy.

"Amazing…" said Red Mantle.

"Yeah… usually someone only does it on their 3rd though 7th try…" said Natsume, "Oh so I've been told…"

"If your training is going this good… then I wondering how good the others training is going…"

Elsewhere on the ship Sakurako was intrusting Nami on her powers.

"Okay how am I surprised to test it?" asked Nami who gotten all the details.

"I know you shouldn't do it the Guardian Ghosts… I'd love to stick it to Sanji's grandfather…" said Sakurako, "Wait I got it… is there any sprits that been bothering anyone but isn't considered evil…"

"Well there is a disembodied voice that's been messing with Usopp…" said Nami.

(Flashback)

Usopp was out one of the room when a voice suddenly boomed.

"Your cadaverous pallor betrays an aura of foreboding…" said a very creepy voice.

"What?" said Usopp.

Natsume just happened to enter the room… and see Usopp shaking…

"What's wrong?" asked Natsume.

"Almost as though you sense a disquieting metamorphosis…" said the creepy voice.

"Hey I recognize this speech…" thought Natsume.

"Just go away…" said Usopp.

"Is this haunted room..." said the very creepy voice.

"You're from Earth… aren't you! Because this sounds suspiciously like that thing from Haunted Mansion at Disney Land…" said Natsume.

"Actually… hey wait a second you know where my speech came from… how…" said the voice.

"Don't worry Usopp it's cool…" said Natsume, "He's just some weird Disney Land fanatic just messing with you…"

"What?" said Usopp.

(End of flashback)

"We don't know a " Disney Land" is but everyone's annoyed by him…" said Nami.

The entered the room and the creepy voice but in a stereotypical pirate voice began to speak.

"Psst! Avast there! It be too late to alter course, mateys." said the creepy voice.

Nami rolled her eyes and said "Um… I'm going to exorcise you…" said Nami.

"What? Why?" said the voice.

"Well as a test… my daughter needs to learn how to exorcise sprits and well…" said Sakurako.

"Sure why not…" said the voice.

Both Nami and Sakurako sweatdroped.

"What?" said Sakurako.

"We both know that it's only temporary do the powers of your daughter and two other guys… and who knows… maybe I temporally be sent back to earth and I can mess with the Imaginers who messed with Pirates of the Caribbean because of some movie with Johnny Depp…" said the voice.

"What?" said Nami and Sakurako with sweat drops.

"Just ask that girl Natsume… she might explain a few things…" said the voice.

"Whatever…" said Nami.

Sakurako handed Nami a gohei and Nami focused on her spiritual energy… she felt a power surge within her body… she began to emit a bright light… she moved the gohei around and when the light was gone Sakurako called "Hey voice you still here?"

There was no answer… "Well I'm surprised… you needed little training… but…" said Sakurako.

"What?" asked Nami.

"You didn't name that move…" said Sakurako.

Nami anime fell.

Elsewhere on the ship… Sanji and his grandfather were trying to meditate…

"Why do we have to do this?" said Sanji.

"Because… even if the Guardian Ghosts… there needs to be more people fighting evil sprits…" said Sanji grandfather, "And if you don't do this then those girls will be in trouble… Nami… Robin… Natsume… Hanako… no matter if their alive or dead… they are counting on you… and you don't want that swords man to get all the glory… that sword of him allows him to do an insane amount of damage to sprits… now do you want those 4 to cling all over him…"

Sanji just got the mental image of Nami, Hanako, Robin and Natsume fawning over Zoro…

"No! Of course not!" yelled Sanji.

"Hook, line and sinker..." thought his grandfather, "Now meditate and focus your spiritual energy…"

"Right…" said Sanji.

Both began to meditate after a few minutes a strange light appeared in the sky… and beamed down on Sanji.

A few minutes earlier…Nami and Sakurako were discussing their training.

"It's very rare for someone to get this far in training… sally since I was trained as a child… I died… when you were just an infant so you never had any of the training but…" said Sakurako.

"But what?" said Nami.

"Perhaps it's your friends… the will to help your friends is making you're training to help your friends…" said Sakurako who sweatdroped, "Though maybe it's the fact that she's been staying on this ship for a long time with ghosts that made her training to go so well…" she thought.

That's when the light hit the ship…

"Looks like Sanji's training had ended…" said Sakurako.

Meanwhile Natsume and Zoro were walking and talking…

"Really… Yubshiri will be able to fight sprits too when it's fixed?" said Zoro.

"That's right… thanks to the guy who fixing is dead it will have spiritual properties…" said Natsume.

That when the light the ship… both were blinded by it for a second.

"Was that normal…" said Zoro.

"We're on a ship that's haunted… I'm a ghost from a world called Earth… I think that this ship lacks a definition of normal…" said Natsume, "And besides I think Sanj was training his powers nearby…"

That's when Sanji on all fours came running through…

"Okay… now that's weird…" said Zoro.

"Even by ship's standards…" said Natsume.

That's when Sanji approached Natsume and did the unthinkable… began to hump her leg.

"Looks like he won't be alive for much longer…" said Zoro.

Natsume whacked Sanji in the head good… she didn't notice the sprit of a dog with triangle hat come out of his body…

Sanji did know what was going on… last thing he remembered was the light hitting him as part of his training and the next he knew was that Natsume grabbed him the collar and was shaking him to death.

"Natsume… what's… wrong…" said Sanji as he was being shacked.

"you know what you did you stupid perv!" yelled Natsume.

"Sanji-Kun!" cried Hanako as she appeared.

"There he is!" yelled Sanji's Grandfather, "Stop it! I don't know what he did but it wasn't his fault!"

"Like fun it wasn't!" said Natsume.

Sanji's grandfather grinned… there was only way to get her stop shaking his grandson to death… so he pink her butt… of course that made her let go of Sanji and sock him in the face.

"You pervert!" she yelled.

"I can explain…" said Sanji's grandfather.

"Really what?" said Natsume.

"Emergency crew meeting!" he yelled.

"Why?" said Zoro.

"Because it is indeed an emergency…" said Sanji's grandfather.

A few minutes later once again there was a meeting in the Meeting Room…

"What's wrong?" asked Luffy.

"Well you see I should examine our family's powers…" said Sanji's grandfather.

"Why?" asked Luffy.

"Oh don't tell me…" said Sakurako trying to hold in her laugh.

"You see our family has amazing power some such as myself can exorcise demons with a powerful hit… some like Miroku my son can simply exorcise evil sprits with a sprit ward while others like Sanji…" said Sanji's grandfather with a heavy sigh, "Have the ability to get possessed by ghosts, spirits and other things and often at the worst time…"

"What?" said everyone in the room with sweat drops.

"Yes... while in some cases it's good… such as coming many demons into one place it or having someone say their good byes but most of the time it gets annoying…" said Sanji's Grand father.

"How so?" asked Franky.

"Like getting possessed by an animal at a bad time… in fact I think he's possessed right now…" said Sanji's grandfather.

They all turned to Sanji who was cooing like a pigeon, everyone sweatdroped even more.

"How do we get him back?" asked Luffy.

"Just a simple knock on the head or having a cute girl glomp them…" said Sanji's grandfather.

"Sanji-Kun!" said Hanako glomping him.

"Oh Miss Hanako!" said Sanji becoming normal again as the pigeon's sprit left his body.

Sanji's Grandfather sighed and explained it all over again… Sanji looked like he wanted to kill his grandfather… which was impossible… as he was already dead.

"Great…" said Sanji.

"Don't worry…" said Zoro with an evil smile, "I'll make sure that whenever your possessed and Hanako's not around that you won't be possessed any more…"

"Me too…" said Natsume with same evil smile.

Sanji sweatdroped…

"Don't worry Sanji-Kun… I'll make those two won't hurt you too badly…" said Hanako.

"Okay…" said Sanji's Grandfather, "I'll just take my leave…"

Sanji's grandfather disappeared before anyone can do anything.

"Don't worry… you'll have your uses…" said Sakurako, "I'll be seeing you around since Nami's all done with her training… bye!"

Sakurako disappeared… Sanji gave a heavy sigh…

"What's wrong… upset that fate gave you an ability that sucks while I was destined for a sword that would help us?" said Zoro with a smirk.

"Not at all…" said Sanji glaring at him.

The two began to fight and argue while the others with the exception of Hanako just ignored them and left the room… well one thing was for sure… things have changes drastically…

Next Time: Something strange happens to Luffy! Yes strange by this ship's standards... He's suddenly 7 years old again! Not only that but a sprit caused it. Why would a sprit want Luffy to be 7 again? Does it have to with something from Luffy's past? Find out next time...

A/N: The ghost that Nami exorcised will return and will be among the OC ghosts that will appear every now and then... and yes his lines are from Disney Land rides...
