The world.

What a glorious place!

Seek freedom and it will lie stretched out before your eyes.

If the endless dream guides your restless spirit, seize it!

Raise your flag, and stand tall!

The words of one piece zip by to the right while the Straw Hat Jolly Roger comes zipping through on the left strong wings sweep over the as the Going Merry sails through the vast sea the Straw Hat crew running above it aiming towards their dreams.

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)

Sanji grins with a cigarette in his mouth, Nami smiles widely while giving a wink. Zorro gives a grin as he turns showing his left side, Ussop throws up his fist with a toothy grin, Chopper gave a happy smile as he jumped on Kurama's back the fox sharing a smile of his own Naruto runs up with a smile as Luffy holds up his up with a grin.

Luffy jumped into the air throwing out his punches, Naruto jumped into the air before teleporting and throwing his kusarigama, Zorro readied each of his swords before leaping forward. Nami pulled out her climate tact twirling around breaking it into each of its sections causing white smoke along with the red and blue bubbles to form a storm cloud in the sky shooting off a bolt lighting towards a terrified Ussop running for his life only to quickly compose himself giving a grin as he sat atop a cannon lighting the fuse shooting off a cannonball towards a nearby island. Chopper soars in the sky in his muscle form swiftly shifting to his reindeer form to his Regular form to going into point guard landing in the kitchen as Sanji bounced him on his foot lightly bouncing him up landing on the cooks head holding up plates on his arm catching cutlets of meat on his plates just as the two of them were about to trip Kurama caught them with some vines from his mouth.

The group throw up their hands up towards the sky zooming out to show the vast ocean towards the large sky as a map forms showing the title.

(Fly away glum blue sea)

The Going Merry sails through the ocean seagulls flying through the air. Naruto sits on the crows nest gazing at the sky as Luffy, Chopper and Nami gaze at the horizon.

(Fly away glum blue sky)

Crashing waves erupt as a storm surges Naruto, Ussop, and Sanji pull hard on rope to steady the ship while a panicking Chopper sits on Zoro's head pulling on his ears while Kurama sighs at this

The Merry sails along the side of a massive wave, Luffy and Naruto call out to Nami and rush out to look off into the horizon as they watch the sun slowly beginning to rise as the straw hats look on with excitement. A dolphin swims through the sea jumping and splashing about, Ussop tosses out a fish line as Luffy looks on with a hungry grin as Zorro lifts his weights. The dolphin jumps above the Merry revealing its gigantic body crashing into the water, the shock sending the marry and the Straw Hats flying in an unknown direction but Luffy had a wide grin on his face. The Straw Hat flag waves proudly as the crew looks off towards the unknown ready for their next adventure.

(The Going Merry)

Everyone was in Nami's room after Naruto and Vivi had put her to bed, after checking her temperature.

"What's wrong with Nami?" Luffy asked curiously, as he looked at her, as she rested in her bed.

"It looks like she's got some kind of fever. But it's none that I've ever seen or heard of before" Naruto said with a frown.

"Maybe it was something she ate," Zoro said with a shrug.

"Oi! I make sure that all of her meals are of the highest quality, moss head!" Sanji yelled out in a rage.

"And what about us?" Usopp asked with a raised eyebrow.

"What about you?" Sanji asked with a casual tone.

"...are you saying that you give us the scraps?" Naruto asked after a few moments of silence.

"No, I give those to Kurama - yowch!" Sanji was saying, before Kurama chomped hard on his leg.

"Look, all of you out. Nami needs rest" Vivi said firmly, as she looked at everyone.

"Yea. With Nami being sick, we need to work overtime on finding our way to an island that hopefully has a doctor" Naruto said firmly, as he pushed everyone towards the door.

"Maybe some food will help," Luffy said, as he rubbed his stomach.

"Hmmmm, that's not a bad idea. I'll make her some soup" Sanji said, as he walked towards the kitchen.

"Yea, you do that" Naruto said with a roll of his eyes, as he went back into Nami's room and paused, as he saw Vivi looking at a newspaper that was on Namis desk. "What's that?" he asked, as he walked over.

"Oh! Um, it's from yesterday's paper" Vivi said as she frowned, while Naruto took the paper.

After reading the paper a bit, Naruto frowned. "Damn it. A bunch of your fathers soldiers joined the rebels. She must have hid this news from you, so you wouldn't worry" Naruto said, as he looked at Nami, who was sleeping.

"You think we will find a doctor soon?" Vivi asked, as she frowned slightly.

"I'll make sure we do. I'm not losing anyone else" Naruto said with a scowl.

"Have you lost people before?" Vivi asked curiously.

Naruto paused at this, while Kurama looked at him from his seat on the foot of Namis bed.

"…..I left behind my parents in Wano, when my ojisan made me leave with him. And Luffy and I lost a friend of ours, back when we were kids" Naruto said with a frown, as he thought about the past.

Vivi frowned at this, as she could understand why Naruto wouldn't want to lose anyone else.

"Look, just keep an eye on Nami. And if you need anything, just ask me" Naruto said, as he walked towards the door to leave.

Vivi nodded at this, as she sat down in a chair next to Nami's bed.

(The next day)

It had only been a day, and Nami was not getting any better and currently…..

Nami was outside, insisting that she was fine, much to many protests, checking the Eternal Pose, to make sure they were going in the right direction.

"Zoro! What the hell have you been watching all this time?!" Nami shouted at Zoro, who was sitting cross legged on the railing, lifting weights in one hand.

"What are you talking about? The ships been going straight ahead just like you ordered" Zoro said with a frown.

"Oh yea, straight at a right angle! Look at the Eternal Pose, it doesn't lie!" Nami said with a scowl, as she held up the Eternal Pose for Alabasta.

"I don't need to look at it. I've been using that big cloud over there as my guide" Zoro said, as he pointed up at the sky.

"You moron! Clouds move and change shape constantly!" Nami yelled at him, before she turned away while holding her head, as she gave a cry of pain. "Ow. Geez, my head is killing me."

"So leave the navigating to me and go to bed" Zoro said to her.

"I wish that I could, but I'm here because I can't leave this to you!" Nami said with a frown, causing Zoro to scoff at this.

Nami then looked up, as she moved to the side of the ship. "The air has changed," she said.

"What do you mean? The weathers been nice like this all day" Zoro said, as he looked around.

"Never mind! Just get the others!" Nami said with a scowl.

"Hey, get your butts out here! Right now!" Zoro yelled out, as he got off the railing.

Everyone came out onto the deck, before looking up at Zoro.

"What do you want?" Usopp asked curiously.

"Yea, what's going on?" Naruto asked with a raised eyebrow.

"You know, I find it hard to get motivated when you're the one giving the orders," Sanji said, as he scowled up at Zoro.

"Shut up and get moving! Take the seat and catch the portside wind!" Zoro said.

Sanji looked over at Nami at this. "Nami, what's up? It's a perfect day, the sun is shining and the waves are quiet" he said.

"The wind," Nami said absently.

"Huh, the wind?" Sanji asked curiously.

"There's a powerful wind and it's heading right this way. I think…." Nami was saying, as she turned around, before she stopped, as Luffy placed his hand on her forehead. "Luffy, what are you doing?"

Luffy kept his hand there for a moment, before it turned red, causing him to take it away with a yell. "Your heads on fire! You gotta stay in bed and we need to get you a doctor!" he yelled out, as he held his burnt hand.

"And maybe you need to mind your own business! This is my normal temperature! Now quit being so stupid and pull the ropes!" Nami yelled back at him.

"Nami, I know that you're trying to be brave for Vivi, but if you keep pushing, then you won't have a chance to heal" Sanji said, with Karoo nodding in agreement.

"I told you guys that I'm fine, so let it go!" Nami yelled out, as she placed her hand on the railing, to catch her breath.

"Whoa. Nami, take it easy" Usopp said.

"Not another word, damn it! Now hurry up and move the ship!" Nami yelled at everyone.

Everyone nodded at this, as they began running to move the ship, as Nami gave a sigh at this. "Sheesh. Something I don't know, but something is heading this way. And soon" she said, as she looked at the ocean.

Zoro and Sanji pulled on the ropes on either side of the ship, with Naruto and Kurama helping, while Usopp and Karoo turned the ship, as Luffy ran to the Merry's figurehead to sit on, with Nami watching the Eternal Pose, to make sure they got back on track.

After making sure that everything was safe and secure, the crew relaxed for a moment, before Vivi came out of the cabin. "Everyone, I have a favor to ask!" she yelled out, causing everyone to look up at her, as she rested her hands on the railing.

"What is it, Vivi?" Naruto asked curiously, as he held onto Kurama.

"As a passenger on your ship, it's not my place to ask this, but I have no choice. My homeland is in jeopardy of being destroyed, so I'd really appreciate it if we could move even faster! Every minute I'm out here puts more of my people in danger of losing their lives! We need to head for Alabasta at full speed!" she said with determination.

Everyone looked up at Vivi with determination of their own on their faces.

"Of course we will! That's what we promised, after all" Nami said with a weak smile, as everyone else gave small nods at this.

Viv gave a sigh of relief at this. "Then it's settled. Let's find an island with a doctor on it right away" she said with a smile.

This caused Nami to look surprised at this.

"First things first, we need to hurry and get Nami healthy again, then we head straight for Alabasta. After all, we need her at the helm to move at top speed" Vivi said with a grin.

"Yep. No one makes this ship move like Nami does" Naruto said with a nod, as Kurama barked in agreement.

"Princess, are you sure about this? Won't finding a doctor for Nami take time that the citizens of Alabasta just don't have?" Usopp asked with a cocked eyebrow.

"That's right! So the sooner we get Nami a doctor, then the sooner we can get to Alabasta!" Vivi said with a nod.

Sanji smirked at this, as he breathed in some smoke from his cigarette, before taking it out of his mouth and blew the smoke out. "Those are wise words, Vivi. You're both beautiful and brilliant" he said.

"The girls got guts," Zoro said with a grin.

Nami shakily walked over to Vivi, using the railing to keep her upright. "Thanks, Vivi" she said, as she leaned over.

"Don't overexert yourself, Nami!" Vivi said, as she placed her hand on Nami's shoulder.

Nami looked up, sweating and panting for breath with a weak smile on her face. "I-I-I'm sorry, but I may need to lie down" she said, before she collapsed against Vivi.

"Nami!" Vivi said in concern.

"AAAAHHHH! WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!" Luffy screamed out in terror, as he pointed behind them.

"It's a cyclone!" Vivi exclaimed in shock, as everyone looked at a huge cyclone that had formed.

"It's huge!" Luffy yelled out.

"Wait, that's the same path we were heading in!" Vivi yelled out, as she held Nami.

"Vivi's right. That's the exact same direction" Sanji yelled, as they all tried to keep steady.

"It would have been a direct hit if we'd kept on going straight. We'd be dead by now!" Usopp yelled out in worry.

"You guys see that? That was way too close! We barely missed it!" Luffy yelled, as lightning struck the water, causing a water crater to briefly appear.

"Incredible! Cyclones in the Grand Line are said to be impossible to predict! But somehow, Nami did. However she does it, it's obvious her technique isn't based on any conventional method. It's as if she's detecting the weather with her body" Vivi thought in amazement, as she looked at Nami with wide eyes. "It's beyond reason. A miracle."

"Alright! What are we waiting here for? Let's find Nami a doctor!" Luffy yelled out, as he thrust his fist out.

"Yeah!" everyone else yelled in agreement, as they also thrust their fists out, with Karoo and Kurama quaking and barking, while thrusting out a wing and a paw respectively, as they sailed away from the cyclone.

"And it's snowing now" Zoro said, as he looked up at the sky, where snow was starting to fall down on them.

"Well it's progress, seeing as changing weather means a different area" Naruto said, as he came out of the ship's cabin and passed some winter coats out to everyone.

"Here, help me get Nami comfortable" Vivi said, as she helped get her back to her room, now that the ship was more calm.

Naruto nodded at this, as he followed Vivi.

"Why does he get to help take care of Nami-Swan?" Sanji grumbled under his breath, as he put his coat on.

"Well he's not a desperate loon" Zoro stated matter of factly putting his own coat on, making Kurama snicker and Sanji growl in annoyance .

"Hey, I see something!" Usopp yelled from his spot in the crows nest.

"Is it an island?" Luffy asked, as he put his coat on.

Everyone on deck looked out at sea and saw what looked like a man in a jester's outfit standing on the water.

"Hey, what's your deal?" Sanji yelled out to the man, as the ship approached him.

Suddenly the jester was lifted up out of the sea, as what looked like a large metal ball appeared, before the metal plating folded away, showing a ship. It was a large round ship, with a hippopotamus as a figurehead.

"Woah! It's a giant submarine!" Luffy yelled, his eyes wide in surprise.

Suddenly, what looked like a bunch of men all wearing green army like outfits stepped onto the ship, and they were being led by what looked like a man with a big afro and what looked like afro glaves on his hands.

"Who the heck are all of you?" Luffy asked curiously as he looked at the soldiers, as they surrounded them all, aiming their rifles at them.

"I am Kuromarimo of the Bliking Pirates" the man with the afro said with a smile.

"And I am Chess," the jester said, as he jumped onto the ship, along with another figure.

Said figure was a large fat man with violet hair, who had a hippo-like cape on his back. He wore tin like plate armor and had a cylinder-shaped jaw made up of tin plates.

"And introducing the captain of the Bliking Pirates, Captain Wapol!" Kuromarimo said, as he introduced the man, who was eating a piece of meat from a dagger, before he ate the dagger too.

"Just seeing that makes my mouth hurt" Naruto said with a grimace, as he came out to see what was going on.

"You guys are pirates too?" Sanji asked curiously, as he looked at the crew of pirates.

"You guys looking for a fight?" Zoro asked, as he narrowed his eyes and gripped one of his katanas just in case.

"Eh? Nah, we just wanted to ask if you guys had an Eternal Pose to the Drum kingdom" Wapol asked, as he dug into his ear with his finger.

"Sorry, we've never heard of it," Usopp said.

"Ah well, that's too bad. Oh well, guess it can't be helped" Wapol said as he nodded, as he approached the side of the ship, before he took a big bite out of it.

"Oi! What are you doing to our ship?!" everyone yelled at this.

"Don't interrupt the captain during a meal!" Chess yelled, as the rest of his crew pointed their weapons at the Straw Hats.

"Indeed. Our captain ate the Munch Munch fruit, so he gets very hungry" Kuromarimo said with a smirk.

"…..that's fucking stupid and I'm including Buggy's powers when I say that" Naruto said with a flat tone of voice.

"Hmmmm, not too bad!" Wapol said, as he chewed on the ship's railing.

"Get lost! Gum Gum Pistol!" Luffy yelled, as he slugged Wapol in the gut, sending the huge man flying off the ship.

"Captain!" all of the Bliking Pirates yelled in surprise at seeing this.

"Quick, after him before he falls into the sea!" Chess yelled to his crew.

"Next time we see you, you all will pay for this!" Kuromarimo yelled, as he and the rest of the pirates quickly ran back to their ship and went after Wapol.

"Well, that happened" Zoro said with a sigh, as he let go of his katana.

"Look what that guy did to Merry!" Usopp yelled, as he looked at the destroyed side of the ship.

"I'll get the repair supplies," Naruto said with a sigh, as he went below deck.

(Later)

A few hours later, the ship was making its way through a snowstorm, after Usopp had done what repairs he could.

Soon the ship made it through the snowstorm and the wind stopped.

"Island dead ahead!" Usopp yelled from the crows nest.

Everyone came out of the cabin and looked out to sea and saw an island covered in snow, with what looked like tall cylinder shaped mountains.

"Finally! A new island!" Luffy yelled with a grin at this.

"Hopefully they have a doctor, as Nami isn't doing too well," Naruto said with a determined look on his face.

"Yea, so no starting anything on this island" Vivi said to the crew with a hard look and tone.

"Right!" everyone yelled, as they guided the ship towards the island.

Soon, they arrived at the docks of the island. But before they could approach….

"Freeze!" a voice yelled, as a crowd of people made their presence known, before they took aim at them with some rifles, while others held a variety of weapons in their hands.

"Looks like they don't like visitors" Zoro said, as he looked at this with a calculating eye.

"Go away, pirates! You're not welcome here!" one of the people yelled.

"Look, we don't want any trouble!" Naruto yelled out.

"Liar!" one of the villagers yelled, before one of them fired at them.

Naruto blocked with his kusarigama, before he glared at the man who had fired.

"Hey!" Luffy yelled, not happy seeing this.

"Luffy! Remember what we're here for" Vivi said firmly.

Luffy clenched his fists at this, before he nodded. "Please, we just need help! Our navigator is sick!" he yelled, as he bowed his head to the crowd of people.

"And why should we trust pirates like you, huh?" one of the villagers yelled.

"Yea, what makes you so different from other pirates?" another villager yelled.

"Look, we just need help for our friend. She's really sick, we promise we are not here to hurt anyone" Naruto said, as he looked up at the villagers and held up his hands in a peaceful manner.

"Liar!" one of the villagers yelled, as he took aim with his rifle, before a man grabbed his shoulder, stopping him.

This man was quite an imposing tall man, with slicked hair and a goatee who wore a green winter coat with white fur around the neck. He also wore armor plating on his arms and what looked like an extra large spade on his back.

"Let them enter the village," the man said with a firm look.

"Dalton, are you sure?" one of the villagers asked with a look of shock.

"They don't seem like the other pirates who attacked before. Plus, we can keep a watch on them while they are here" Dalton said, before he looked down at them.

"Thank you," Naruto said as he nodded at Dalton.

"OK, so who is staying with Merry?" Usopp asked, as they got the Merry close to the docks.

"I'll do it, seeing as it needs protection" Zoro said with a shrug.

"Not alone, you're not. Kurama, you stay with him" Naruto said to the fox.

"You stay too, Karoo," Vivi said to her duck companion.

Kurama and Karoo both barked and quacked at this, as they approached Zoro.

Naruto nodded at this as he picked up Nami and carried her, as the ship approached the docks.

(Later)

A little later, Dalton had shown them to a house where Nami was now resting in a bed, while they talked

"So you guys were attacked recently by pirates?" Luffy asked curiously.

"Yes. It was one of the worst attacks in our country's history" Dalton said with a nod.

"How did you guys drive them off?" Sanji asked, as he smoked his cigarette.

"We didn't. They just left after they got bored" Dalton said.

"So they just killed your king and just left?" Usopp asked curiously.

"No. Our king left as soon as the attack happened, taking all of the soldiers with him" Dalton said with a scowl, as he clenched his fist tightly.

Naruto paused at this, before his eyes narrowed and he also scowled at this.

"Do you have a doctor here, Dalton? Nami really needs one" Vivi said, as she put a wet washcloth on her forehead.

"I'm afraid that we don't. The king also took the 20 doctors that were the pride of our kingdom" Dalton said, as he shook his head at this.

Naruto growled at this, as he broke the railing on the chair he was sitting against.

"Well, I sure hope that this king doesn't find his way back," Usopp said.

"There has to be a doctor somewhere around here" Sanji said, as he looked at Dalton.

"Well….we do have one. But she's more of a witch" Dalton said after a moment of thought.

"Whatever it is, we will take it," Naruto said, as he looked at Dalton with a determined look on his face.

"Very well. She lives on top of the mountain, inside of the castle" Dalton said, as he pointed out the window towards a castle that was on top of the mountains.

"How often does she come down?" Usopp asked with a raised eyebrow.

"And how do we get up there?" Vivi asked curiously.

"She only comes down when she needs supplies and the only way up is the rope way, which is being repaired and should be fixed in a few hours -" Dalton was saying, before he was cut off.

"Nami doesn't have time to wait. She needs a doctor now" Luffy said firmly.

"Well said, captain. We can take her up the mountain" Naruto said, as he nodded in agreement.

"Guys, maybe we should wait a bit," Usopp said, as he looked at them.

"Yea. We don't want Nami to get even worse" Sanji said with a nod.

"I-it's ok. I trust you guys" Nami panted out, as she looked at them with a smile, while raising a hand in the air.

"OK then. Who's going with me?" Luffy asked his crew, as he gave Nami a high five.

"I'lI go" Naruto said firmly as he nodded.

"I'll go too" Sanji said with a firm tone, as he too nodded.

"You two stay here," Naruto said to Ussop and Vivi, as Luffy put Nami on his back, before tying a jumper around her, so that she stayed in place.

Usopp and Vivi nodded at this, as they left the house and started to make their way towards the mountain.

"Be careful of the Lapahn's!" Dalton yelled after them.

(later)

The group was making its way through the woods towards the mountain and had just gotten done running from some large rabbits that were the size of bears.

"Jeez, those guys are such a pain. We should just fight them" Luffy grumbled, as he continued to run.

"NO! Nami-swan might get hurt if you fight" Sanji yelled.

"Hold it right there, Straw Hat!" a voice yelled out, getting their attention.

They turned around and saw Wapol, Kuromarimo and Chess a bit behind them, riding on what looked like a hippo with long legs.

"I owe you for attacking me, Straw Hat!" Wapol yelled, as he pointed at them.

"You ate part of my ship! I say we're even!" Luffy yelled back at him.

"The king has the right to eat whatever he wants. Especially some no name pirates ship" Kuromarimo said with a smug grin.

Naruto paused at this, as he narrowed his eyes at them. "And I suppose you have the right to flee during an attack, along with taking protection and doctors that your people need with you?" he asked.

"Of course! Why should I care what happens to them? They made a good distraction, while I fled" Wapol said with a dismissive wave of his hand.

Naruto's eyes dilated at this, as he thought back to his past, seeing his people suffer under the foot of Orochi and Kaido, before he looked at Luffy and Sanji. "Guys, get Nami to the top of that mountain. I'll handle this overweight jackass and his goons" he said.

"Eh? What makes you think you can handle all three of them, whiskers?" Sanji asked, as he raised an eyebrow.

"Because if those Lapahn's come back, Luffy needs someone to watch his back. Now go!" Naruto yelled at Sanji.

"Damn whiskers. Trying to look cool" Sanji grumbled under his breath, as he ran ahead of Luffy, who was right behind him.

"Kick their ass, Naruto!" Luffy yelled over his shoulder, with a grin at the blonde.

"This won't take long" Naruto said with a sneer, as he glared at Wapol and his two minions, as Luffy and Sanji got away.

"Heh, you think you can take both of us on, kid?" Kuromarimo asked with a confident grin, as he readied his fists, before he threw what looked like hairballs at Naruto.

"Don't think insulting the king is a light sentence" Chess said, as he took out a bow and arrow, which he lit on fire, before he took aim at Naruto.

As the attacks got close to Naruto, he looked up and gave them a menacing death glare ,before he was gone in a puff of smoke.

"Eh? Where did he go?" Wapol asked, as he looked around in confusion.

"He must be hiding in the snow like a coward," Kuromarimo said, as he looked around for any sign of the blonde, as the wind started to pick up.

"It must be a Devil Fruit. I'm assuming a Paramecia type" Chess said, as he kept his eyes out for any sign of Naruto.

"Come on out, you coward! Or are you just gonna run away?!" Kuromarimo yelled, as he looked around for Naruto, not seeing Naruto appearing behind him with his pistol out and putting it to Kuromarimo's head, before……

BANG!!!!

Wapol and Chess turned to look at Kuromarimo, as he fell to the ground, the snow around him turning red from the hole in his head, as Naruto stood over his body, while his pistol was smoking after the recent shot.

"I am not a coward, unlike you fat boy" Naruto said with a cold tone, before he disappeared again in a puff of smoke

"What the hell just happened?!" Wapol yelled in surprise, at seeing one of his lieutenants killed.

"Your majesty, get back - hurk!" Chess yelled as he got in front of Wapol, before the blade of Naruto's kusarigama was suddenly thrown into the side of his throat.

"Chess!" Wapol yelled in shock, as his minion fell to the ground, as the blade was pulled out of his minions neck by its chain into the snow storm nearby.

He then started to look around in a panic, trying to find any sign of Naruto. "Get me out of here!" he yelped at his hippo, who started to run away.

But it didn't get very far, before Naruto suddenly appeared beside Wapol and kicked him hard in the side of the face, sending him tumbling into the snow, while his hippo continued to run.

"A-are you g-going to kill m-me too?" Wapol stuttered out in fear, as Naruto approached him

"I probably should, but I believe I've already made my point" Naruto said, as he held his arm behind him at Kuromarimo and Chess' bodies. "So I'll tell you what; you take your soldiers, leave the doctors you forced into servitude here and leave this kingdom for good" Naruto said, as he glared at Wapol.

"Y-yes! Of course! I'll leave and never come back!" Wapol yelled, as he rapidly nodded his head at this.

"Good. Cause if I hear that you have returned…." Naruto said, as he let the threat hang, as he raised his kusarigama, showing that it still had blood on it.

Wapol nodded at this, before he ran off in a panic.

"Pathetic" Naruto said with a scoff, as he calmed himself down, before he looked at the bodies of Kuromarimo and Chess and sighed. "I may as well bury them, before I catch up with Luffy, even if they were scum" he said, as he remembered that even scum didn't deserve to be left to the scavengers.

(Later)

Later on, after burying the two guards of Wapol's, Naruto had made his way to the base of the mountain and looked up at it.

"Jeez, that's a long way up," Naruto said with a sigh, as he looked up, before he reached into his pocket and pulled out his telescope and extended it, before looking through it.

After a few moments, he paused as he spotted Luffy making his way up the mountain with his bare hands, with Nami and Sanji on his back and he was almost to the top.

"Luffy!" Naruto said surprised at seeing this, but before he could think of anything to do, he saw what looked like a furry figure with a hat grab Luffy's hand, as he reached the top of the cliff.

Naruto, seeing this, quickly teleported up to the top of the mountain behind the furry figure.

"Hey, let my friends go, you - gak!" Naruto yelled as he turned to look at the figure, before he grabbed his sides and fell to his knees in pain.

He then looked up, as the figure approached him and saw a furry creature with a red hat, brown pants and what looked like a ring of fur around his neck.

Naruto looked into the creatures eyes and saw that there wasn't any ill intent, before he sighed in relief and passed out with a grunt.

"Chopper, what's going on?" an older sounding voice asked.

The creature looked towards the castle, as what looked like an old woman with a navel ring, a shirt that bares her midriff, a purple blazer and purple low-riding pants walked over, drinking a bottle of booze. This was Doctor Kurreha.

"A man just suddenly appeared up here, when I was helping this guy, after he climbed up the mountain with these two, Doctorrine" the now named Chopper said, as he gestured to Naruto, then Luffy, Nami and Sanji.

Kurreha looked at the four newcomers with a raised eyebrow, as Chopper suddenly became smaller, with his hands turning into hooves while small antlers appeared through his hat.

"This one climbed the mountain with his bare hands? Plus, he is frozen to the bone, so make a hot bath and throw him in it" Kureha said, after inspecting Luffy.

"Hmmmm. This one has several broken ribs and a cracked back. Shall I operate on him?" Chopper asked, as he inspected Sanji.

"This one is just exhausted, so just put him to bed and get a meal ready for him when he wakes up. And as for the girl, she needs our help, as it looks like she's dying" Kureha said, as she took a quick look at Naruto, before he looked at Nami and suddenly turned serious as she grabbed her.

Before her wrists were grabbed by Luffy and Naruto.

"They are m-my friends" Luffy stuttered out, as he looked up from the snow.

"D-don't you dare let her die" Naruto said, as he forced himself up a bit, as he shivered a bit from the cold.

Chopper froze at this, as he saw these two humans were pretty much desperate to save their friends.

"Don't worry, you two. She's in good hands now" Kureha said, as she nodded at them.

Luffy shivered a bit at this, before he finally passed out.

"T-thank God" Naruto stuttered out, as he slightly cried a bit, before he too passed out.

"Chopper, let's get to work. We have a lot of work to do" Kureha said, as she carried Nami towards the castle.

Chopper nodded at this, as he turned back to his bigger form, and dragged the others into the castle.

(Later)

It was a bit later and Nami groaned, as she finally woke up and looked around, seeing that she was now in a bed, in what looked like a room, that was filled with books and doctors equipment.

"Ah, you're awake. That's good" Kureha said with a grin, as she entered the room.

"Where am I?" Nami asked, as she looked at Kureha with a raised eyebrow.

"You're in my home. Me and my apprentice just got done patching up your friends" Kureha said, as she leaned against the wall.

"My friends? Are they alright?" Nami asked curiously, as she knew that Luffy, Naruto and Sanji had gone through a lot to get them up here.

"They will be fine, it's you that still needs bed rest, girlie" Kureha said, as she approached and pulled up Nami's shirt a bit, showing her the bug bite from Little Garden. "Do you know what this is, girl?" she asked.

"Uh, a bug bite?" Nami asked, wondering what this old woman was getting at.

"It wasn't just a bug bite, girlie. It's from a bug that should have gone extinct over a hundred years ago. What, were you walking around without a shirt in a jungle?" Kurreha asked, as she stepped back and took a drink from her bottle.

"Uh….." Nami said, as she thought back to what happened in Little Garden.

"Still, you should be glad that I had the antidote, otherwise you'd have died in a few days," Kureha said, as she sat in a chair.

Nami went silent at this, as she didn't think she was that close to death.

"Your friends went through hell to get you here. I'm almost impressed, though that blonde looked the most upset from what I saw" Kureha said, as she looked at Nami.

"Sanji" Nami said with a sigh while shaking her head, as while she appreciated him trying to save her, she really wasn't in the mood for his flirting right now.

"Nope, the other one. The one with whiskers on his cheeks" Kureha said, as she shook her head.

Nami paused in surprise at this, as she looked at Kureha. "N-Naruto?" she asked curiously.

"Yea, if that's the one with the katana and ninja weapon. The kid was exhausted and almost frozen to death and was practically crying over you, when he got here" Kureha said with a grin, as she took a drink.

Nami's eyes slightly widened at this, and she lightly blushed, before she quickly composed herself.

Before anyone could say anything, they both heard a crashing sound outside, before the door burst open as Chopper ran into the room, with Luffy and Sanji close behind him.

"Come back here, meat!" Luffy yelled, as he ran after Chopper.

"Hold on, Luffy! Let me cook him first! Oh, hey Nami-swan. Don't worry, I'll have a great venison stew made soon!" Sanji yelled, as he ran after them, before looking at Nami with a smile.

"Hey! No trying to eat my apprentice!" Kureha yelled, as he stood up and chased after them.

Nami sighed at this, before she laid down in her bed. But soon she felt a chill and got up to close the door.

"Stay in bed," Naruto said, as he appeared in the room in a puff of smoke.

"Ah! Don't do that!" Nami yelled, as she threw a book at Naruto, who ducked.

"Glad to see you got your throwing arm back" Naruto said with a smile at the navigator, before he approached the door to close it. But before he could close it, Chopper walked into the room

"Gah!" he yelled, before he hid behind the door…..by sticking the edge of his head behind the door, exposing the rest of his body.

"Uh, it's supposed to be the other way around," Naruto said with a cocked eyebrow.

"I know how to hide, human! Don't make fun of me!" Chopper yelled up at him.

"I'm not making fun of ya. And don't worry, if you want, I'll tell Luffy and Sanji to leave you alone if you want" Naruto said, as he waved his hand dismissively at this.

"Huh? You don't want to chase me?" Chopper asked in surprise.

"Why would I? You helped cure me and my friends, right?" Naruto asked curiously.

"Wait, he's a doctor?" Nami asked, surprised at this.

"Yup. A pretty good one too, from what I can see" Naruto said with a smile.

"Saying things like that won't make me happy, you big jerk," Chopper said with a smile, as he did a weird little dance.

"Not that good at hiding your emotions, are you?" Nami asked with a knowing grin.

"So, um, are you actually pirates?" Chopper asked curiously.

"You betcha," Naruto said with a smile at the reindeer.

"With a ship and a pirate flag?" Chopper asked curiously.

"Why? Are you interested in pirates?" Nami asked curiously.

"Um…." Chopper said, as he thought about this.

"You know, our crew needs a doctor," Naruto said with a grin at Chopper.

"Yeah. You could join us and see the world" Nami said with a nod, as she smiled at him.

"What?! But I'm a reindeer with a blue nose. I can't go on adventures with humans!" Chopper yelled.

"Eh? Why not?" Naruto asked, as he tilted his head to the side.

Before Chopper could answer, Luffy suddenly barged into the room, along with Sanji.

"There you are!" they both yelled, as they pointed at the reindeer.

"Gaaaaaah!!!!" Chopper yelled in a panic, as he quickly ran off, with the two pirates close behind him.

"I want it pointed out, that next time you call me stupid, I'm gonna remind you of this" Naruto said to Nami with a flat tone of voice, as the captain and cook chased the reindeer.

"Noted" Nami said with a sigh at this.

"Where are those two that want to eat my apprentice?!" Kureha yelled, as she came into the room.

"They went that way, Baa-chan - gah!" Naruto said before he yelled, as Kureha smashed a bottle on his head.

"Don't Baa-Chan me, you little smartass! I'm still young at 139! And what's with you trying to lure off my apprentice, girlie?" Kureha yelled at Naruto, before she looked at Nami.

"Holy crap! She's not just old, she's ancient! Gah!" Naruto yelled at this, before a hatchet slammed into the wall next to his head.

"Next one won't miss," Kureha said with a glare.

"Relax, he's harmless, along with the rest of us. You don't need to worry about Chopper getting hurt, once Luffy figures out he's a doctor" Nami said to Kureha.

"Oh yea. He will instantly find him cool and want to be his friend" Naruto said with a chuckle, as he nodded at this.

"Friend, huh? You have no idea how much that word hurts Chopper" Kureha said, as she sat down in her chair and grabbed a new bottle of booze.

"Well then, enlighten us" Naruto said, as he and Nami looked at Kureha.

Kureha looked at the two pirates and nodded at this, before she started her story.

(One explanation later)

Kureha had just finished telling them Chopper's backstop about his past with his adopted father Dr Hiriluk.

"Now I'm really glad that I killed the fatass's two minions, before kicking him out of the country" Naruto growled out.

"You did what?!" Nami yelled out in shock.

"Killing a king's elite guards. You like to live dangerously, don't you kid?" Kureha asked, as she raised an eyebrow at Naruto.

"I don't like bullies," Naruto said with a glare, as he thought about his past.

"…..ha! Fair enough kid" Kureha said with a laugh at this.

"This isn't a good thing! Do you have any idea what could happen, if he reports you to the World Government?!" Nami yelled at Naruto.

"Aww! Are you worried about me?" Naruto asked with a teasing smirk.

Nami growled at this, before……

POW!!!

She slugged Naruto in the head, sending him to the ground with a lump on his head.

"Gaaah! Leave me alone!" Chopper yelled out, as he ran into the room and hid behind Kureha, as Luffy chased him.

"Come on! Join our crew!" Luffy yelled with a smile at Chopper, as he tried to get closer to the reindeer.

"Don't talk crazy!" Chopper yelled, as he shook his head.

"Huh, looks like you and the blonde had his reaction pegged," Kureha said with a chuckle at Nami.

"Told you" Nami said with a chuckle at this.

"Hey Naruto, Nami. He's gonna join our crew!" Luffy said happily, as he pointed at Chopper.

"Good, cause I need a medic. I have a headache" Naruto groaned, as he stood up while holding his head.

"Eh? Medic? Luffy asked curiously, as he tilted his head to the side.

"Another name for doctor, brat" Kureha said, as she shook her head slightly.

"Yea, Chopper is a doctor, Luffy," Nami said.

"Eh?! That's great! You have to join our crew now!" Luffy yelled, as he smiled at Chopper.

"If you didn't know he's a doctor, then why did you ask him to join?" Nami asked, raising an eyebrow at this.

"He's a transforming monster," Luffy said casually.

"Reindeer, get it right," Naruto said firmly, before he looked at Chopper and nodded at him.

Chopper blinked at this, as he rubbed the back of his head sheepishly, before he paused as his nose twitched. "Some other people are here," he said, as he looked at Kureha.

"Don't tell me that fatso's men have come here," Naruto said with a scowl.

"No, it's a small group from what I smell," Chopper said.

"Yo Luffy! Are you here?!" Usopp was heard yelling from outside.

"It's my crew! Come on Chopper, come meet them!" Luffy yelled as he smiled at Chopper.

"B-but I'm a reindeer with a blue nose" Chopper stuttered out.

"Eh? So? Why does that matter?" Luffy asked, before he grabbed Chopper and dragged him towards the door.

"Nothing phases him, does it?" Kureha asked with a chuckle at this.

"Nope. I'll go make sure the others take it slow with Chopper. You stay here and rest a bit" Naruto said, as he went to follow after Luffy.

"Hold on. We need to get out of here and get to Alabasta as soon as -" Nami was saying, before being cut off.

"Just relax, Nami. We will leave as soon as we can. You just rest and make sure you're ok" Naruto said, as he looked back at Nami for a moment, before he left the room.

"If I was you girlie, I would make a move. Men that caring are rare in this world" Kureha said with a laugh, as Nami blushed at her words.

(Outside)

Outside the castle Zoro, Usopp, Vivi, Kurama, Karoo and Dalton had arrived and were talking to Sanji, while Luffy ran out to greet them.

"Hey guys!" Luffy said, as he smiled at them in greeting.

"What's got you so happy? You finally catch that reindeer and eat him?" Sanji asked curiously.

"What reindeer?" Usopp asked curiously.

Kurama's ears twitched, as he looked at the castle entrance and saw Chopper hiding behind the door…..and doing it badly once again.

Kurama barked and pointed with his tail at Chopper, getting everyone's attention.

"Hey! I'm not stupid! I know how to hide!" Chopper yelled at Kurama

"Wait, you understood him?" Naruto asked, as he appeared behind the reindeer in a puff of smoke.

"Gah!" Chopper yelled, as he looked at Naruto in surprise.

"Hey guys, this is Chopper! He's gonna join our crew as our doctor!" Luffy said with a smile, as he introduced the reindeer to his crew.

"Huh? He's a doctor?" Zoro asked, raising an eyebrow at this.

"That's fantastic! We could definitely use one after the scare with Nami" Usopp said with a smile at Chopper.

"That's wonderful news! Naruto kept telling you to recruit a doctor" Vivi said with a smile, as she recalled Nami mentioning this to her.

Chopper's eyes widened at this, as everyone smiled at him, before he blinked in surprise, as Kurama sniffed him curiously.

"Now don't be rude, Kurama. He's just like you. He ate a Devil Fruit, only he got a Zoan type, right Chopper?" Naruto said to the kitsune, before he looked at Chopper.

"Oh, um, yes. I ate the Human Human fruit, so I can do whatever a human can do. I normally have three transformations, but if I use this special medicine I made, then I can use seven transformations" Chopper said as he nodded.

"Seven?! That's so cool!" Luffy yelled, as he looked at Chopper with stars in his eyes.

"Y-you all don't think I'm scary?" Chopper asked, as he looked at the crew.

"Compared to the rest of us, nope," Sanji said, as he smoked his cigarette.

"Yea. Kurama's more scary than you, kid" Zoro said with a chuckle.

Kurama nodded at this, before he held out his tail to Chopper.

"Huh?" Chopper asked, confused at this.

"I think he's offering you a shake, as a fellow animal member of the crew," Naruto said with a grin.

Kurama barked at this and nodded.

Chopper looked at the offered tail, before he held out his hoof and let Kurama wrap his tail around it and shake it a bit.

Kurama smiled at this and barked at Chopper, before he pulled his tail back.

"Oh, OK" Chopper said, as he nodded at Kurama.

"What did he say?" Usopp asked curiously.

"He said that he's counting on me to translate for him, so you guys know when he's calling you stupid" Chopper said casually, as he pointed at Kurama.

Usopp face planted into the snow at this, while Kurama snickered.

"So this means you're joining the crew?" Naruto asked with a smile at Chopper.

Chopper froze, as everyone looked at him. "Um, well, if you're ok with having me," he said nervously.

"You're a step up from Kurama, from what I have seen," Sanji said, as he lit a new cigarette.

Kurama barked at Sanji at this, clearly not happy with this.

"He said; say that to my face, you moronic skirt chaser!" Chopper said, as he pointed at Kurama.

This got a big laugh from Zoro, Luffy and Usopp.

"Oi! You think you can take me on, fluffy?!" Sanji yelled at Kurama, as he got in his face.

Kurama barked at this with a smirk.

"Bring it on, you cuck!...What's a cuck?" Chopper translated, before he looked at Naruto curiously.

Naruto groaned at this, as he pinched his nose, feeling a headache coming on from the fact that Kurama could now have his barks translated.

(With Jiraiya)

Meanwhile at the Revolutionary Army headquarters, many of the members of the revolutionary were looking over maps and going over plans for liberating certain countries, which included Jiraiya, who was there to help with strategies.

Sitting at the table, was a man in a green robe with a tribal tattoo on one side of his face. This was Monkey D Dragon, the leader of the Revolutionary Army.

Also sitting at the table, was a young teen boy, with a scar over one eye and a black top hat with blonde hair. This was Sabo, Dragon's second in command.

"Sir! We just got a major update!" a man yelled, as he ran into the room, while holding some wanted posters.

"What is it?" Dragon asked, as he looked at the man.

"We have intercepted a report that Jiraiya's grandson has forced the King of Drum Kingdom to leave his throne and leave his 20 doctors with the people there, after killing his top men" the man said, as he placed Naruto and Luffy's wanted posters on the table.

"Oh jeez. The brat must have heard what kind of king Wapol was and decided to scare him into leaving" Jiraiya said with a groan.

"Hmmmm. It would seem your grandson has taken to your teachings more than you thought,"Dragon said, as he looked at Naruto's poster.

As Dragon and Jiraiya talked, Sabo looked at Luffy's poster and as he looked at it, he started to breathe rapidly, before he grabbed his head and yelled.

"Sabo? What's wrong?" a young teen girl with orange hair, a red hat and goggles on her head asked curiously.

Sabo didn't answer, as he fell to the ground as he held his head.

"Sabo!" everyone yelled, as they ran over to the second in command to check on him.

"What's wrong with him?" a yellow fishman in a white karate gi asked.

"Get a doctor!" Dragon yelled to his men, who quickly moved to get Sabo some help

The sun slowly rises off as the night winds blow through the desert of Alabasta giving it almost a purple color from the sky. In the middle of the desert alone stood Vivi she looked down at the sand picking up a jeweled necklace holding onto it

tightly the cold winds flowing as she looked at the necklace with a forlorn look on her face as she thought of the danger awaiting her people.

Vivi thinks of her father, Igaram, Chaka, Pell, and Kohza beside a young Kohza protecting a young Vivi.

Back in the desert Karoo looks at his friend sadly knowing the burdens she holds. When she suddenly picks up something and turns to see the straw hat crew ready to support her.

She thinks back to all the adventures the group have had meeting the giants, fighting against Mr 3, crossing through the desert.

The group walks towards the princess Luffy patting her shoulder gently while Zorro simply struts by Sanji puts a hand on her shoulder while Ussop gives a grin, Nami passes giving her a wink, Naruto two finger salutes her with Kurama rubbing her head with his tails and Chopper waving by as the sun begins rising up into the sky and with it washing away all Vivi's doubt as she knows she has friends who will support her.

P.O.M and Kfbanime87 were both at their desks, before….

I am a warrior! Deadpool yelled, as he barged into the room, in a bad Knuckles costume

……no, your an idiot: P.O.M said, as he shook his head at this

Yea. How high are you? Cause you know the rule, share that shit - oi! Kfbanime87 was saying, before P.O.M slapped him on the back of the head

What? I can't be excited for the Knuckles show? Deadpool asked

Eh, it was OK. Kinda annoyed that Knuckles was kinda underused, if I'm honest: Kfbanime87 said with a shrug

Anyway, next from me is my Justice League fanfic: P.O.M said

See you soon, people: Kfbanime87 said with a wave at the reader
