Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or One Piece..

A/N: I'm not actually going to apologize for being late in updating... Because the main reason is I lost my grandfather early in October. Also, My P.C quit on my and I had to get a new one. Got weather from Hurricane Matthew that caused my internet to act up as well.

But I am updating all of my stories so I can just explain all of this just once.

Chapter X.

Last Time.

Luffy grabbed it with his right arm stretched out and grabbed Sanji with his left. Luffy laughed as they dangled before Naruto pulled having them fly up and land on the deck. Suddenly, they started falling down as the octopus shrunk completely. Usopp put on his belt and suction shoes before swinging to the bottom of the Ship.

He started putting Breath Dials on and the Merry slowed down. Only for the octopus to shrink down to Chopper's size having everyone look up in shock. And they started to fall faster and landed on the water. "Holy crap." Naruto said as water splashed them. "Everyone alright?" He asked as they nodded.

The octopus landed on Luffy's face having him pull the octopus off. Everyone looked to the night sky to look at Sky Island before Sanji lit a cigarette and went to make coffee. Suddenly, lights went off revealing a Marine Base with alarms going off.

It's a large mountain with a rock formation around it like a ring and a large bridge.

"I hate my luck." Naruto said sighing as he leaned his head back to look at the sky. "Does anyone know... Just where the heck we are?" Luffy asked as more lights came on.

Now.

G-8 Base, A Few Minutes Before The Merry Fell.

An orange haired man with black eyebrows and mustache is fishing by the shore. He's wearing a typical Marine Uniform with a overcoat with medals and a feathered tricone folded beside him.

He threw his line out hearing more Marines at the base and bridge. He also heard hammering from the bottom of the base where they repair their ships. Later, he hummed just as e heard a large splash and the sirens go off. "Well I'll be. Someone's invaded from the sky."

He said recalling his line in. Once he hook came up with a yellow and red floater that had 'G-8' on it, he saw Usopp's goggles on it and blinked. He took them off before looking to the Merry as the lights shown down on it. He saw his men surround the ship from the bank as several Marine ships sailed to them.

Inside; Kitchen.

A bunch of cooks are preparing dishes whiles several cleaned dirty plates and utensils. Two were talking about the commotion outside, only to be hit to the floor with a ladle. They looked up to see it was a woman who hit them.

She is a young and tall woman with blonde hair and dark green eyes. She's wearing a Marine kitchen outfit with a cooks hat.

"No chit chatting in the kitchen!" She said holding a pot. "Look here, it is our duty to prepare a warm and delicious meal for 1,000 hungry Sailors!" She put the pot on one of the stoves and continued. "And we've got to get all that done before the night shift starts in two hours!"

"Does it sound like we have time for fooling around?!" They shook their heads no at that before continuing their jobs.

Vice Admiral's Office.

Jonathan walked in his office and saw another man near his desk.

The man has brown hair with mutton chop sideburns. He wears a marine cap with an overcoat draped over his shoulders, over a blue suit.

"Commander, finally. Where have you been?" The man asked before catching Jonathan's fishing gear as Jonathan put his coat on his desk and walked to the window. "I didn't catch anything." Jonathan replied looking down at the Merry. "What, again?" he man asked as Jonathan sighed.

"I had such a big catch yesterday." The man placed the gear down before looking at Jonathan. "That's not what I'm talking about. Commander, if you're constantly absent..." Jonathan looked back before speaking. "Don't lecture me. My fishing isn't necessarily a waste you know."

A knock on the door interrupted them before a Marine walked inside. "Commander, I have a report. according to the Watchmen, as well as the maintenance men on the dock who saw the enemy ship up close. THey reported they saw ghosts, sir!"

Drake, and Jonathan interviewed each person who saw the Merry land for several hours before leaving to investigate the ship.

The Merry.

Spotlights shown on the Merry as canons on the base turned to the ship. A group of Marines ran on board and wrapped the ship up in caution tape as they looked around. They saw eight cups of coffee on the deck as they took pictures before Jonathan wearing his coat picked the blue pot up and took a whiff of a cup.

One Marine ran out with the Skypeia gold as more walked out with the rest. "These treasures are quite old." Jonathan said with his hand on his chin. "Get them to the lab!" Drake said having the man nod. "Well then, let's have a look inside shall we?" Jonathan asked walking to the kitchen.

Only to stop hearing a Southbird. He looked up and smiled. "Easy there.. It's just a Southbird. Sailors of old used them to navigate as their heads always pointed South.. despite their silly appearance." Jonathan said and was attacked for his insult by the bird. They went to look at the kitchen and saw several kunal and scrolls around the room.

"The kitchen's well maintained..." Jonathan said before a Marine brought out multiple History and Medical books on the table. "Interesting, seems these 'Ghosts' study a lot." Jonathan walked out and explained the Merry was a ghost ship to keep the base calm. He walked with Drake talking about the supplies and Southbird being from Jaya.

Later, he sat in his office thinking about the Straw Hat Crew. "'Straw-Hat' Luffy, 'Pirate Hunter' Zoro, and 'Elemental Sage' Naruto.. We can count that woman with multiple hands and hairy beast is aso a part of their crew. All in all.. There are eight Pirates. Among them are..."

"A talented gourmet cook, a knowledgeable ship's Doctor, and possibly a Historian as well."

Chopper And Naruto.

"Where did everyone go?" Naruto, who was looking at the Merry from the forest, turned to see Chopper hiding backwards from a tree. "It'll be easier if we separate for now.. Easier to rescue anyone that gets caught." Suddenly, Naruto grabbed Chopper and jumped in the trees as a spotlight came over to them.

"Damn.. We should find their laundry room and get uniforms for the other to blend in. Naruto looked to see a person swim in the water as he jumped along the treetops and sighed. "And I thought my sense of directions was bad." Naruto said before continuing towards the Base.

Naruto jumped through a window and put Chopper down. "If we stay quiet, we'll be fine.. I can hide us with my Genjutsu. (Illusion Technique.)" Naruto said before hearing footsteps running towards them. "AH-!" Naruto silenced Chopper with his hand as they shimmered out of sight as Marines ran past them.

"Well, let's look for uniforms to hide."

Nami.

"Good thing we still have this Waver." Nami said hiding her Waver in a corn field with before falling down as two Marines walked past where she walked up. "Security is tight." She whispered standing up. "I'd better find every body and get out of here right away."

She looked at the mountain surrounding the base and widened her eyes. "Oh no is this...?" She trailed off before going to one mountain ledge and started climbing. Once she got halfway up, she panted before turning around to look at the base. "This is bad... It's enclosed by land in all directions."

"Then where are we? Did we land in a lake with no way to get out?!"

Sanji.

Sanji crouched on a tree limb as two Marines walked under him. He took his cigarette out of his mouth and grinned. "Well, would you look at that. We've landed in another fine mess haven't we? I hope Robin and Nami was able to get out of the ship ok."

Bang!

A bullet whizzed past his cheek having him lose his balance before hearing one of the Marine speak. "I thought I saw a light up in the tree." The Marines left having Sanji jump down and put his cigarette out on the tree. "I can't even smoke in peace."

Luffy.

Luffy stood in front of four entrances to the building and looked at each. "Beef, pork, chicken, fish." He said before sniffing. "I know there's food inside. And one way or another, I'm going to find it." After taking a big whiff, he ran in one entrance.

Robin And Usopp.

Usopp found his goggles and sighed as he looked at the Merry. "Can't get anywhere near the Going Merry. THey have our ship under a freakin microscope." Robin crossed her arms in front of her and closed her eyes. After a few minutes, she opened them. "The Marines think the Going Merry is a ghost ship."

"That'll buy us some time.. They won't look for anyone then." She finished walking to the woods.

Chopper And Naruto.

Naruto crouched against the wall of a turn into another hall. One Marine walked by and Naruto grabbed his arm, pulled it forward, and hit his throat. The Marine gasped before Naruto put his hand over his mouth and pulled him to the ground.

Naruto slammed the man's head down hard knocking him out before tossing the Marine in a room and took his clothes. Putting the hat on, Naruto saw he was in a guns locker room before taking out a sniper rifle and a flintlock pistol.

Usopp And Robin.

The duo walked to the base and hid behind a tree as a Marine walked by. "At any rate, obtaining any information we can for escape is our first task." Robin said looking around.

"Let's do this Long Nose." She said getting Usopp to stiffen.

Inside, Dawn.

Luffy walked behind a Marie while walking in the rock hall. The Marine stopped and looked behind him before continuing. Luffy turned around and grinned as he sent a peace sign. Sanji looked past the rock he was hiding behind and sighed. "That baka. (Idiot.) can't he take anything seriously?"

Sanji heard more people running before dashing to Luffy. He grabbed Luffy before jumping up to an air vent and went inside.

On the other side of the base, Zoro walked behind a large gear in the dock as Marines ran in the opposite direction. "This base is huge." Zoro said looking at the Marines running to the other side of the dock as he past the gear.

Nami.

Nami walked against the wall of the hall before coming to a corner. "Who decided this base should be a maze?" She whispered as Marines ran past her at the end of the next hallway. "We need to get out of here, and soon." She went down the next hall and to a door.

Opening it, she saw she came out to a walkway showing the Merry was gone and a red bridge. "No way!" She gasped holding onto the guard rails. "Jeez its enormous. Hey, where's the Merry? What did they do with our ship? And where's our gold?" She asked before walking down the walkway.

She looked to see destroyed Marine ships at the docking area before blinking. "THey weren't there before. So this place is connected to the Sea instead of a lake like I thought. Ok, so I just need to find the others.. If I can go undercover..." She said before the door opened again.

"Man this place is like a maze." Nami stiffened as she looked to see two men behind her.

One is taller than the other and is a thin man with short purple hair, a wide mouth, and a well-trimmed mustache. He's wearing a purple suit over a blue shirt with an orange and black tie.

The shorter man is a round body-shaped man with brown hair and a beard. He has a black shirt under a standard Marine chef uniform.

"Excuse me miss, do you know where the kitchen is?" The tall one asked before the short one continued. "Yeah we just came in off those ships and we can't find a thing." Nami chuckled nervously before speaking. "Oh yeah, same thing happened to me. But that must have been five years ago."

She took the men inside and gave them random directions before walking away herself. She found a room before putting on a Marine cleaning uniform with the kanji for 'On Duty' written on it and a baseball hat that she put on backwards.

Picking a pail of water and a mop, she walked outside and started mopping as two Marines walked past her talking about taking care of Naruto and Zoro. Just as Zoro walked in from another hall as they turned a corner. "Gonna make me regret what?"

Crack!

Nami hit him with the mop having him turn to glare at who hit him. "Oh, it's you." He deadpanned as she glared. "How the hell can you just stroll around a hostel fortress?! You'll be caught in no time walking around with those things!" She yelled taking his swords and ran to a door beside her.

"You'll get me caught too." As they got outside, they saw they were on a balcony several stories in the air. "Stay here. You have no sense of direction and I can't keep my eyes on you while looking for the others as well." She put his swords on a tree beside the balcony having Zoro reach for them.

Only for them to fall down to the ledge under the balcony having him jump off to get them while holding onto the railing.

Sanji And Luffy.

Sanji pulled Luffy inside a room just as Marines past them before seeing chef's clothing. They both got dressed in the uniforms as Luffy wrapped his hat up to hide before they walked in the kitchen.

The cooks stopped to look at them before hearing Jessica speak. "So you're the big shot cooks H.Q. sent here? Listen up, I don't care about that, you don't live up to my standard syou won't set foot in here again!" She put two frying pans down and looked to them. She brought out food and had her cooks prepare meals as Marines came in.

As they finished, Sanji looked at the unused food scraps and bones before scoffing and cook meals out of the scraps having the Marines flock to his meals. "This is a battlefield, right? It's important to use everything, and making sure your food storage lasts. 1,000 or 1,000,000 Berries."

"You should never waste food. It is our duty as chefs to use every bit of ingredients with love and skill.. Like loving a woman... A wise old geezer once told me that."

A Few Hours Later, Naruto And Chopper.

Naruto slid against the wall hearing Marines talking about just capturing Zoro in the water. "Zoro got captured? What do we do now?" Chopper asked having Naruto look down. "Look for the others. Zoro should be fine.. I didn't see any execution platform, so this must just be a place for holding prisoners only."

"Let's look for clothes that'll fit your human form." Naruto grabbed Chopper just as Marines walked in the hall in front of them. Naruto dashed down the hall, and passed Nami who blinked before hiding as Marines started yelling. Naruto hid in a large storage room just as two Marines in coveralls walked in and moved boxes.

Naruto jumped in one before covering his mouth after landing in a bunch of deer antlers before feeling the box move. After a few minutes, they stopped before hearing the men talk to a woman about them being used for medicine before hearing a group of nurses come in and take the woman out for the Marines that are injured.

"But I'm a Pediatrician!" Chopper picked the top up before stepping out. So, this is a Med Lab... Can she handle that?" Naruto stepped out and fixed his rifle over his shoulder before speaking. "Not the ones who would need surgery." He saw Chopper walk in the same direction before following after.

Once getting to the large room with Marines on beds before Chopper transformed in his human form. He picked out a coat glasses with a moustache and shoes. He started ordering the nurse around before Nami bumped into Naruto wearing pink nurse clothes.

"Naruto-kun? Chopper?" Naruto saw a woman sitting on a stool get up.

She is a woman of average height with purple hair and round glasses. She wears a white Doctor coat, over a red jumper.

"Doctor? I'm so glad you're here! I can't do this!" She explained she's a kids Pediatrician and has a fear of blood before Chopper spoke up. "The man who taught me, told me a story. There was once a man who was told by several Doctors he would be dying in weeks."

"Distraught, the man went to the wilderness to die. Once there, he came among an amazing sight. The entire mountain was covered in cherry blossoms. When he went back to his doctors, they were astonished to learn he was cured. A healer must never give up. There is no illness that can't be cured!"

"You're the last person that can help those men!" Naruto stayed in the room as Chopper, Kobato, and a sighing Nami left to go to the operating room before looking out the window. "Well.. He and Sanji keep to their morales of not letting anyone go hungry and healing them."

Robin And Usopp.

Robin looked at the base from the treeline with a telescope as Usopp moved holding a bush to hide. "Marine Command Branch 8." Usopp said before Robin spoke up. "That's the official name. But it's more commonly known as Navarone, the Marine's most powerful stronghold."

"The Command Center is likely in that central tower." She pointed to the mountain in the middle of the lake. "Enough with all the technical talk already. We need to find the Going Merry." Usopp said as Robin sighed. "Knowledge is power. Or have you forgotten we're in an enemy fortress."

"How will we escape? Or do you think they'll just let us go? We need to find out all we can about this place." Usopp stood up to walk away, only for Robin to use her power to grab him, and hid him behind a tree as Marines walked by.

Later.

Robin hid behind a rock looking at the dock after Usopp ran off to get Merry and save Zoro. She looked to a ship as a Marine walked down.

He is a grayish skinned man with a black ponytail. He's wearing the official Marine over coat, purple clothes, and a pair of purple eye glasses.

He yelled at another Marine to see Jonathan to investigate the base before the man walked away to a hallway. Robin followed before using her powers to knock him out and take his clothes to disguise herself. She walked to Jonathan's office and saw Usopp in a Marine uniform being yelled at by Drake.

"Oh, hey there fellow Inspector!" Usopp said with a grin. "Remember me? I'm Usopp in your Division." Jonathan looked to Robin before speaking. "Major Sheppard, you know this man?" Robin just smiled before speaking. "I've never seen him before in my life." Usopp was taken out as Robin talke with Jonathan.

When they walked outside,, Naruto, now wearing a black mask covering the bottom half of his face walked out of a room. "Oh, Arashi." Robin said walking to him. "Do you know this man?" Jonathan asked having Robin nod. "Yes, he's with me." She replied wrapping her arms around Naruto's right.

Naruto blinked before hearing the Marines mutter. "She's dating one of her men?" One said before another spoke up. "Well, the Commander's married to Jessica." Naruto blinked at that missing Robin move one arm lower as the Marines moved passed them. Naruto jumped as she left after pinching his ass before sighing.

"I'll never understand women."
