So here is the first chapter in what is now my most ambitious crossover to date. The idea came to me a while back and I couldn't shake it so I decided to, in my spare time from my other stories, work on it and it's reached the point where I feel like I can upload some chapters. Due to the nature of this story and my other works it is going to be a monthly upload or so, at least early on but it may pick up or decrease depending on how the real world treats me. For contest, this is a massive crossover set within the One Piece world and featuring four of my five favorite animes (One Piece is the 5th) and one of my favorite anime-inspired shows (RWBY is not an anime) in a deeper crossover where each of the added franchises are now pirate crews in their own rights. As the title of this first chapter shows, they are all rookies at the same time as the Straw Hats and several are Supernovas who will be part of the Worst Generation with this chapter introducing the 5 new crews and the members who have bounties over 100 million with the introduction being like the others. The goal for this is to see how the new crews interact with each other, the Straw Hats, the other members of the Worst Generation, the World Government, Marines, Emperors and the others from their own franchises who are brought in as well for their own roles which will be expanded upon in chapters to come and show changes to the One Piece world. This means that in addition to additional Supernovas and crews, there will now be more Warlords, Emperors, Admirals, Supreme Grade swords, Devil Fruits, Celestial Dragon Families, etc. to accommodate the vastly increased cast.
I don't want to reveal too much here other than that the added franchises are My Hero Academia, Black Clover, Fairy Tail, Akame ga Kill, and RWBY and when it comes to the powers of those franchises be they Quirks, magic, Imperial Arms, or Semblances, they have been adapted as best I can into the One Piece lore which does mean that for the most part they will be Devil Fruit powers. I've done my best to adapt them but some have been altered due to what exists in One Piece and others have slightly different bases but I think I've done a good job and I've already listed out all the powers of the crews though I will not be revealing the non-canon fruits I made for them all at once, rather they will be introduced over time starting with the next chapter. In addition, while I've tried to make them as close to their personalities as possible due to various factors such as the deep nature of this crossover and the powers some of them have there will be times where characters are more intelligent or better informed than they seem to be in their original series so that they can function better in the One Piece world.
The only other thing to mention is pairings as I am sure there will be questions about them so I will try to address them at the start. I do not do cross franchise pairings so that will not happen though if a character is particularly amorous/perverted/aggressively flirtatious like Sanji, Mineta, Lubbock, Yang, or Finral they will hit on, creep out, or flirt with other characters in keeping with their personalities. When it comes to the pairings within the series, I do not do any One Piece ships (though I do love Hancock's crush on Luffy) as that is not what Oda goes for while with the other series the only ones it will predominantly be canon/one sided canon/implied canon ships with two exceptions as they are two of the four non-canon ships I ship. The former ones that may happen, romance is not my primary goal in this story but I won't ignore feelings, are IzuOcha, Astelle, NaLu (those are my top three anime ships of all time), Gruvia, Gajeel x Levi, and Jerza. The one non-canon ship that will be heavily implied and probably the most likely to happen is Tatsumi x Akame, I do not ship Tatsumi with Mine, while the other one that may happen in White Rose.
Lastly, and just as a formality, I will use dub terms for the characters not sub though I do know what most of the sub/Japanese names are so I won't be confused if you prefer to use them. Anyway, that is enough rambling in this long opening note so sit back and enjoy the first chapter in The Ultimate Worst Generation.
Disclaimer: I own nothing related to these great franchises.
Chapter 1: The 22 Supernovas
"Adding Monkey and Roronoa to the list there are now 22 rookies with bounties over 100 million berries on the Groves." Shakky said to Luffy, Chopper, and Brook as they sat at the bar in Grove 13 on the Sabaody Archipelago. "Seems like all the top rookies are here at the same time which is quite unusual but almost certainly a sign that things are about to change."
"There are 22 people with bounties that high!" Chopper exclaimed shocked at the news he was getting. "And they're all here!"
"Yup, including your Captain and crewmate there are 20 others who have become notorious enough to garner such a high bounty before crossing the Red Line into the New World, for the most part." Shakky said as she took a puff of her cigarette. "When you entered the Grand Line you had a choice to make from the 7 sea routes that would take you here and you followed your Log Pose after you picked it you until you made it here, right?"
"Yeah we did." Luffy said with a nod. "Well other than to Alabaster, we used one of those Eternal Poses for part of the way there but it was on the route Nami was following regardless."
"Well, the other pirates who are here picked one of the 6 routes that you didn't take and they went though almost as much trouble as you did to reach here though none of them attacked Ennis Lobby." Shakky said. "Regardless, whichever route your take they all converge on this archipelago when you reach the Red Line again. This is the final stop for all who hope to get past the wall before you and enter the New World. That said, it's a bit crazy that the all of the world's best rookies managed to get here at the same time and what a notorious lot at that. At the top of the pile you've got Yami, Kid, yourself, Izuku, and Natsu. I'm guessing you must have read these names in the newspapers alongside your own."
"I don't read newspapers, that's what Robin does." Luffy admitted.
"Information is a weapon, don't forget that." Shakky said with a sigh though her contacts' reports on Monkey D. Luffy had revealed that he was like this, which made his accomplishments all the more impressive in a way as he just seemed to do what he wanted. "At the very least learn the names of your rivals, that's the smart thing to do especially now that you're likely to run into them while here, and probably in the New World as well."
"Ok so the big ones are Kid, Yami, and er Izuku and Natsu, right?" Chopper asked. "They're the ones who rank the same as Luffy as you grouped them with him."
"Correct, they're the ones with the highest bounties as all 4 of the others have bounties that exceed 290 million berries." Shakky said as she held up three fingers. "And of them you're right in the middle of the 5."
"Hold on there are two people here with bounties higher than Luffy?" Chopper exclaimed slamming his hooves on the bar top as Brook's jaw fell open. "Who are they?"
"Well the other 20 Super Rookies, or Supernovas as they're being called, are…" Shakky began as she explained who the Supernovas were.
"RUN!" A citizen screamed and panic shouts reverberated around Grove 19 as the people there fled trying to get as far away from a massive blast of fire shot down the center of the settlement in the Grove, burning the ground as it flew and scorching the walls of the buildings as it went. "The Captains of the Fairy Tail and Black Bull Pirates are going at here for some reason!"
"Not bad but I've seen the flames of Kaido and you've got a ways to go before you can even hold a candle to them." A tall, broad, tanned, man in a white tank top, gray pants, and black boots with a matching black half cape over his right shoulder said as he slashed down a katana that glowed with a roiling blackness and then shot off his blade in a projected slash that cut through the flames parting it and sending the fire either side of him to crash into the buildings behind them and utterly demolish them while the cigarette he was smoking never left his mouth. "Keep it up though, show me why they think your little crew can compete with my misfits when it comes to utter destruction."
"Destruction God, Yami Sukehiro, an exile from the Land of Wano in the New World and Captain of the Black Bull Pirates." Shakky said as she described the cigarette smoking man to Luffy, Brook and Chopper in her bar unaware of the fight that was going on right now following on from mentioning the Surgeon of Death, Trafalgar Law, the Captain of the Heart Pirates. "He's the only Supernova from the New World though several of their crews have members from it. His bounty is 350 million berries."
"Not bad, so what they say about your power is true though I didn't expect you to sound like one of my friends though somehow you're less buff than he is, which given your physique is saying something." The source of the fire, a lean but muscular teen around Luffy's age with messy pink hair said as the embers of the fire came from his mouth and he leapt over the black slash that proceeded to cut a building in two behind him as the tattoo of his crew's Jolly Roger seemed to glow on his exposed right shoulder. "Every time we do something news worthy we hear of your crew and how we're not on your level yet. I look forward to proving it wrong and showing your that that dragon's got nothing on me!"
"Dragneel 'Salamander' Natsu." Shakky was saying in her bar as she described the pink haired teen. "Captain of the Fairy Tail Pirates originally from the West Blue. His bounty is 294 million berries."
"Oh I'm just getting started." Yami said grinning as darkness cloaked his blade and he took a puff of his cigarette as the civilians continued to flee the area. "This is going to be fun."
"Same!" Natsu roared as he charged at Yami but already Shakky was moving on to the next Supernova.
"Not bad, the tales of your sword skills are as good as I've read." A brown haired teen in a white jacket over a cream jumper and black shirt with matching pants and silver boots said as his silver one handed sword clashed against a similarly sized black and rusted one with a clang as the combatants pressed against each other trying to break through the other's defenses. "And your strength is no joke. We're similar but that power of yours is just what I heard or else I'd have the upper hand."
"What can I say, it was fate that I got it." A gray haired, shorter, teen in a blue jacket and white shirt with blue pants and a black half robe over his shoulders said as he pushed the other male back showing that he was stronger though the brown haired teen backflipped from it to put distance between them while avoiding a swipe from the black sword as it broke through his block. "I'm guessing that preventing your own power is a good thing right now, whoever you are."
"You bet but I prefer this, a more manly clash of steel." The brunette said as he landed in a crouch and pushed off the ground in a direct lung towards his opponent that he'd challenged the moment he'd run into him as the gray haired kid held his ground ready to intercept the attack. "I try not to use my power unless I have to."
However before he could reach his opponent there was the sound of rushing footsteps and a flash of red as a third teen roughly their own age suddenly leapt between them a pair of one handed swords out and intercepting both blows before the boys could clash again. That was made clear by the pair of clangs as all the swords classed while the newcomer held firm in the middle.
This newcomer may be the same age but had long red hair that swept over one eye and more noticeable, was female. She wore a simple blue skirt, boots, and white bouse but she had a steel breastplate on along with bracers and greaves as she pushed the two boys back though she could tell their strengths were no joke.
"Then allow me to join so we can see who's the best with a sword but now is not the time." The girl said as she held her blades out point first at the two boys and the brown haired one saw the Jolly Rodger tattooed on her left forearm denoting her affiliation though the center was blue where her Captain's was red. "We all have to get past the Red Line first. We can settle this duel in the New World. I'm sure that our Captains would be more than happy for that."
"Scarlet Erza, aka the Fairy Queen Titania, swordswoman of the Fairy Tail Pirates originally from the South Blue." Shakky said unaware that this scene was going on as well but with all these strong rookies chaos and battles were to be expected whenever they clashed, or not depending on their personalities. "Her bounty is 175 million berries."
"Yeah that's fine, we're going to have stuff to settled regardless." The gray haired boy replied as he sheathed his sword on his back where a second one that was just as black and rusted was. "And I know my Captain is causing a scene, should probably go find him before we get unwanted attention."
"Black Devil Asta, swordsman of the Black Bull Pirates from the North Blue." Shakky said describing the gray haired kid to Luffy, Chopper and Brook. "His bounty is 290 million berries, that's the highest of any non-Captain present by the way."
"Yeah I can work with that." The brown haired boy said also sheathing his sword on his back before he turned and walked away. "Besides, I've got to go see what mess my partner is in, I don't think this place agrees with her and she's not exactly restrained so close to the Holy Land."
"The Adaptive Monster, Tatsumi, swordsman of the Night Pirates also from the North Blue." Shakky said as she described the brown haired boy. "His bounty is 237 million berries."
"Monsters like you don't deserve to live." A raven haired girl the same age as Tatsumi said as she pulled her bloody katana from the chest of a stunned Celestial Dragon that she'd just impaled through the heart causing his body to fall lifeless to the ground as his outfit and the ground around him was stained red. "I hate being back here but if I'm going to be then I'll make sure some of you don't return to your fancy palaces built on the backs of slaves."
Around the man were the bodies of his attendants who had all been cut down with a single strike to either the neck or chest after the raven haired girl had let them lead her to this deserted area of Grove 25. The Celestial Dragon that she'd killed was notorious for coming to Sabaody once a month and selecting more women for his harem in Mariejois and the girl knew that she was just his type so it was no surprise that she'd be chosen.
From then it was just a matter of going to a quiet place with a promise to show the goods and maybe even let him have some fun as well, something the Celestial Dragon couldn't say no to, and then killing the monster and those with him. It was too easy really but the girl didn't mind as one less Celestial Dragon was a good thing.
Still, this was a major no-no and they needed to get rid of the bodies and fast. Thankfully the girl had already told her Captain the plan and as the Celestial Dragon's body hit the ground her Captain, a taller, older woman with short silver hair, an eye patch over her right eye, and a green mechanical right arm, in a simple black suit stepped out from behind a tree a black cigarette lit in her mouth.
"Well that was as efficient as ever." The older woman said clearly unphased by the death before her as she approached and pulled out a small transponder snail. "But we need to move quickly to avoid an issue. They'll notice soon enough but missing is better than dead and given the fear these bastards instill in people, especially those who serve them, they won't contact him for a bit just in case he's 'busy' with his latest acquisition."
"'General' Najenda, Captain of the Night Pirates, a former Navy Vice Admiral who defected after she was passed up for Admiral in favor of a sadistic rival and became a pirate to permanently eliminate the corruption of the World Nobles and Marines." Shakky said describing the older of the two women. "Her bounty is 289 million berries."
"Don't worry, when I'm done they'll never find the body." The raven haired girl said as with a swift slash of her katana she cut the hair off the Celestial Dragon and then began to set to work dismembering him into small, manageable, pieces with a cold, practiced, ease. "By the time they realize he's gone and not whoring here we'll be in the New World."
"The One Strike Murderer, Akame, assassin of the Night Pirates whose origins are unknown but she was sold as a slave as a child to the World Nobles before being rescued by Najenda." Shakky said describing the raven haired girl. "Her bounty is 255 million berries. It would be above 300 million but they've not found all the bodies she's left in her wake."
"Not going to buy a hot chick a drink." A tall, voluptuous woman in brown leathers with a mane of shiny blonde hair said seductively as she rested a gauntlet clad arm on the bar of a shady drinking establishment in Grove 6 and looked over at an angry blond teen male with spikey hair and red eyes wearing a black tank top, combat pants, and boots who was enjoying a drink by himself before she arrived. "You look like you could use some company and I'm thirsty. Get me something and we can see where it goes."
"Buzz off Top Heavy." The man said as he took a generous slug from his drink not even bothering to look at the woman who was trying to get free drinks out of him like he was some loser simp. "I'm here to drink while my Captain sorts some shit out, I'm not here to deal with some bar floozy after booze while giving nothing in return."
"Oh hell no did you call me that." The girl said her eyes flashing red and her hair glowing as she clenched her fist. "You'll…"
Before she could finish the teen raised his left hand to her face before it glowed and suddenly there was an explosion that blew apart the bar and send the blond woman flying through the wall and into the area outside the establishment. She hit the ground and bounced off it before flipping and landing on her feet to slide back over the it all the while glaring at the now dusty hole in the bar's wall. As she did the blond guy stepped out of the rubble and grinned at her his hands to the sides palms facing her as he walked.
"You can take a hit from me, impressive." The blond guy said as his hands began to glow again. "I don't discriminate based on gender so if you can give me a good fight then let's go. I was getting bored on my shore leave anyway so entertain me until my Captain needs me again."
"Great God Explosion Murder, Bakugo Katsuki, first mate of the Might Pirates from the East Blue." Shakky said as she described the blond man. "His bounty is 268 million berries."
"Oh it's…" The blonde said but before she could there was a flash of red that tore in from down the street and suddenly a girl with short black hair that had red tips wearing a black skirt and corset with a hooded red cape on and a large red device on her lower back appeared before the blonde with red rose petals fluttering around her for some reason.
"Stand down Yang!" The new girl, who was clearly half foot shorter than the blonde, said a slight order in her voice. "Now is not the time to be fighting. The ship is almost ready and Blake wants us to head to Grove 1 just in case we can do something there. If you really need to fight save it and any hits you've just taken until then."
"Captain's orders, Yang, those are final and you know it." A new female voice, this belonging to a prim and proper girl with snow white hair wearing a white dress and jacket with a rapier strapped to her right hip though a small scar over her left eye broke up her beautiful face while somehow adding to it at the same time. "You know better than to pick a fight with a thug like that anyway even if you're a thug yourself."
"Hey, I heard that Princess! Say it to my face if you've got any guts!" Katsuki shouted. "Now back off so I can pound Top Heavy into the ground."
"I'd like to see you try." Yang replied her eyes going red as the white haired girl failed to hide a little snicker at the nickname. "I'll dish it back to you twice as hard."
"No, no fighting not when we're in the shadow of the Navy." The girl before Yang said. "We've come too far to get their attention right now."
"Kacchan, she's right, this isn't worth it." A new, male, voice said and Katsuki turned to the green haired teen his own age clad in a simple black hoodie and jeans with red boots, though he at least had the iron soles on them just in case, walking towards him alongside a boy in a blue outfit with half his hair white the other half red and heterochronic eyes. "Stand down, that's an order. The ship is almost ready so we can leave soon. Save your energy for the New World, we'll need it there."
"Fine, Captain." Katsuki spat before he glared at Yang. "But this isn't done. Find me in the New World, Top Heavy, we'll settle it there."
"That's fine but save it until then." The green haired kid said looking towards the shorter girl and offered a small bow. "I apologize for any trouble that my first mate's actions might have caused you."
"Midoriya 'Deku' Izuku, Captain of the Might Pirates hailing from the East Blue." Shakky said describing the green haired kid. "His bounty is 298 million berries."
"It's fine, my sister and crew member is probably equally to blame for this, she has a habit of destroying bars." The short girl said bowing as well as her sister started to object and then closed her mouth as the bar destroying thing was true. "We'll be on our way, see you in the New World and we can determine if we have to be friends or enemies there."
"The Red Reaper, Ruby Rose, Captain of the Rose Pirates from the West Blue." Shakky said describing the smaller, short haired girl. "Her bounty is 272 million berries."
"What caused this?" The teen with Izuku said looking at Katsuki. "What did you do this time?"
"Nothing Icy-Hot, I was enjoying a drink and she bothered me so I blaster her way." Katsuki said. "Come one, let's go. I take it Ponytail is done then."
"Momo has the ship almost ready so Tenya wants the three of us back to go over how the whole thing works for underwater travel." The teen who'd just spoken said. "I was just getting Deku so we can head out. I've got a bad feeling and I don't like being so close to where my father might be able to find me."
"Icy-Hot Todoroki Shoto, second mate of the Might Pirates and originally from the Grand Line." Shakky said describing the final supernova, the two toned teen. "His bounty is 278 million berries."
"Well there you have it; those are the other 20 Supernovas that have made it this far." Shakky said as she finished her explanations while stubbing out her cigarette before lighting up a fresh one. "Countless crews have entered the Grand Line but only a small handful have made it this far and only 14 of them have Captains with bounties exceeding 100 million berries and almost half of those Captains have crewmembers who exceed that number as well due to their own actions along their journeys to this point."
"That's a lot though." Brook said. "To have that many make it this far with those bounties is quite impressive."
"The number is the surprise as usually there are only a few Super Rookies, rookies who's bounties exceed 100 million before they cross the Red Line, that make it this far because the Grand Line is basically an enormous survival tournament." Shakky explained. "Regardless of the paths they took, those who made it here, be they the 22 Supernovas or their crewmembers, are the cream of the crop for this half of the Grand Line."
"Clearly." Brook said. "Back in my first life I don't remember that many getting bounties that high."
"For the first half of the Grand Line it is rare to reach 100 million." Shakky said. "But it is commonplace in the New World where 100 million is probably week. As such I'd go as far as to say that one of these 22 Supernovas might go on to become the leader of the next generation of pirates. Fair warning, with this many top tier rookies passing through the Red Line and to the New World at the same time, things are about to get ugly."
"I bet; the numbers are astronomical." Brook said. "Over 3 billion berries and that's just the top tier ones."
"It's a lot for sure and in case your curious as to why the bounties of Kid and Yami are higher than yours well it's for two different reasons." Shakky said as she ashed her cigarette. "For Kid it's because he has no qualms with attacking innocent civilians, not the most charming man out there for sure, while for Yami it's because he has a bad habit of causing way too much destruction for his own good while also beating one of the 11 Warlords, twice, though at least he doesn't attack innocent civilians. Still, the Black Bulls, and Fairy Tail for that matter, cause way too much wanton chaos whenever they end up someplace so I prefer you boys, you can count on my support. I'll be cheering for you to come out on top."
"Thanks but I'll be honest with ya." Luffy said. "I'm just trying to have fun and live free, that's why I became a pirate. I am a little afraid for the coating mechanic guy, though, this place sounds rough."
"Don't worry there, I know for a fact that Rayleigh will be alright, he's been through a lot worse than what you see on this archipelago." Shakky said with a smirk. "He's a hundred times stronger than you. None of the Supernovas stand a chance against him and none would be stupid enough to try it if they met him."
"Did she say…" Chopper began his eyes wide.
"A hundred times?" Brook asked finishing Chopper's line though as he didn't have eyes they couldn't go wide.
"Yes I did so he's going to be alright." Shakky said. "Now before you head out there to find him there is one more bit of information you should know regarding the caliber of crews currently present."
"And that is?" Luffy asked though he was still rattled by what Shakky had said about the coating mechanic.
"That yours is not the only crew where every single member has a bounty." Shakky said getting another surprised look from the trio before her. "That's right, there are 5 other crews where all members have a bounty and all but one have at least one crewmember who's also a Supernova, if not two in some cases."
"5 other crews are as wanted as us?" Chopper asked.
"More as your collective bounty is 700 million and 50 berries while all but one of the other crews' collective bounties exceed 1 billion though the one that doesn't is only just above yours at 714 million so if you'll indulge me, as my way of showing support, it's time you learned who the other notorious crews are." Shakky said as she reached under her bar and pulled out a stack of papers. "I'm sure you've guessed but you should know who make up the Black Bull, Might, Fairy Tail, Night, and Rose Pirates because they're all going to be rivals one day and none of these people are going to be easy to face when you reach the New World."
"They have collective bounties that high!" Chopper exclaimed his shock increasing. "Are they all strong or something?"
"Pretty much." Shakky said. "All but one of them have also publicly defeat a Warlord and forced the Navy to strip that Warlord of his status."
"Wait what?" Luffy asked. "I thought I was the only to beat a Warlord, two actually."
"I was unaware of the second but if you've beaten 2 then you're above these crews." Shakky said. "But yes, all but the Night Pirates have beaten a Warlord which raised their profile while the Night Pirates are there because of their ruthless dispatchment of corrupt government officials and a lack of qualms killing navy soldiers."
"Damn they do sound strong." Luffy said with a grin. "My kinda rival then."
"They certainly will be that." Shakky said. "And in addition to their accomplishments, almost all of these people are Devil Fruit users. Well, the Captains and top crew members are at least."
"That's not common though." Brook said. "We only have four on the crew and my first crew I was the only one."
"True it's not that common in the first half of the Grand Line which is why these crews have been successful, at least to some extent as Devil Fruits alone aren't everything in battle." Shakky said. "That said they are useful in the right hands and to add to it, all types are represented. Several are Logia users which if my information is correct includes a fabled Logia in their number, some have strong and rare paramecia types including a legendary paramecia that has yet to be confirmed so I won't speculate on that one, and there are even a handful of Mythical Zoan users. Only Ancient Zoan types aren't represented with these 5 crews though one of the other Supernovas, Drake, is an Ancient Zoan user."
"Hold up this is hurting my head." Luffy said trying to keep track of it all though he'd likely forget most of it once they went to the amusement park. "What do you mean by all this? I get the stuff with Logia powers, I've had issues facing a few of them before, but not the others."
"Yeah what even are Ancient and Mythical Zoan types?" Chopper asked. "I've not heard of those."
"I too am intrigued." Brook added. "I've heard of the types but nothing described as legendary nor do I know what a fabled Logia is."
"The fabled Logia is one that has been theorized but until recently there have been no concrete sightings of it, though as with all Devil Fruits it will have the same weakness to water." Shakky said. "It is just a rumor but if it is true then one of those 5 crews has the person who ate it."
"Intriguing." Brook said. "It really could be anything then as the range of Devil Fruits does seem infinite and esoteric at times."
"You're Revie-Revie Fruit is proof of that." Shakky said. "So yeah and that's just the start. There are other Logia types reported in these crews as well as a potentially legendary paramecia and some Mythical Zoans."
"Yeah back to that." Chopper said. "What is a Mythical Zoan?"
"It is what it sounds like, a sub category of Zoan Devil Fruits that allow the user to transform into a beast, or a hybrid of that beast and a human, that is from myth or legend." Shakky said. "This is different to Ancient Zoan types which are extinct animals line dinosaurs. Of all Devil Fruit types Mythical Zoan Fruits are the rarest with only 3 confirmed to be in circulation before this crop of rookies appeared on the scene but I've heard of a few others."
"What are they?" Chopper asked. "The known Mythical Zoans that is."
"They are the Fleet Admiral Sengoku's Human-Human Fruit, model: Buddha, Kaido of the Four Emperor's Fish-Fish Fruit, model: Azure Dragon, and First Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates Marco's Bird-Bird Fruit, model: Phoenix, so all three are used by extremely powerful individuals." Shakky said. "Those are the three that have been seen in use enough to know that they exist until this new crop showed up with a good few more though the precise number has been hard to pin down as the World Government likes to keep this hushed up."
"So we don't know how many there are?" Chopper asked.
"No though I do suspect I know a few." Shakky said. "And some aren't as strong as others but if what I've heard is true, some of the Mythical Zoans out there could give Kaido's power a run for its money. Well, providing they're used right and trained up properly."
"That's fine with me, bring on the strong rookies." Luffy said with a grin. "I'll beat all of them."
"In that case you should know who they are though I won't tell you about any Devil Fruits they use as I actually don't know all of them and some likely don't have one." Shakky said. "But it's a good thing that know who your rivals are, all of them as these are the people who will support their Captains."
"Alright." Luffy said, he was going to be the King of the Pirates so he may as well learn who the rivals were that he'd have to beat along the way though whether he remembered who they were was another story. "Who's first?"
"Best to start with the largest crew, the 22 person strong Might Pirates as they're the largest of the crews." Shakky said as she pulled the top wanted poster off the and showed a bloody, determined green haired kid just as she described, though he had glowing lines on his body for some reason, followed by the posters for the first and second mates who were also in the 200 million berry bounty range. "I've already described him a bit but this is their Captain Midoriya and his two chief officers. These are their posters but let's move onto the other people starting with this girl, the helmswoman…"
With that Shakky began to explain the other crews that had a bounty on each member. It was a lot to take in and she didn't expect Luffy to remember it, which was why Chopper and Brook being present was really useful as they'd likely remember so it would sink in. Information was key and so long as they knew that these rivals were out there then they'd be prepared for the New World though something told Shakky that things wouldn't wait for the New World.
Well there is the first chapter in this massive crossover. As you can see, several key members of the other franchises are Supernovas with each crew having at least two other that the Rose Pirates and they're pretty hefty. In some cases it was hard to decide who deserved it but in the end the focus was on those who were selected as Captain along with either a main character from their franchise (Asta/Akame/Tatsumi), or a major supporting character who's fighting skills and reputation were enough to merit a bounty over 100 million berries (Erza/Bakugo/Todoroki). Do not worry, all the crew members have bounties and yes I have them written out along with their powers where applicable and the next chapter will focus on the aftermaths of these events, introduce more crew members, a few of the new Devil Fruits, and set things up for the next part of the Sabaody Arc and where the various players will be when Luffy inevitably and justifiably causes a scene. For the most part I am sure you can guess who's on each crew though one has more than expected (only a few but they were necessary) and the same with the Devil Fruit powers but I will not confirm or deny what they are. That said, when a new fruit is revealed, if you have a suggestion for what it should look like do tell me as I've only come up with one fruit's appearance at the moment. Same applies for ship designs, suggestions there are more than welcome. Anyway, that's all I really have, there isn't much more to say about this chapter as it's just a taste of the various players and the crews that are added so I will leave this chapter off here. If you liked this please favorite, follow, leave a review, or let me know in a PM and if there are any questions will posed in reviews and PMs I will try to answer them as best I can. Until next time.
