Yohohoho Yohohoho~! Greetings readers, watchers, and subscribers! After taking a year off to work on getting a beautiful new girlfriend and possibly getting a promotion at my job, I am announcing that I am back baby! Sorry to all my readers who have waited patiently on me finishing up my stories but rest assured I am still writing but for now let me whet the appetites with a new story!
This originally began as a crossover shipping story for Izuku "Deku" Midoriya and Marinette "Ladybug" Dupain-Cheng, a ship I've been obsessed with all year and have written, erased, and rewritten over and over again until I found a story to help me flesh out the idea.
On AO3 there's a three way crossover fanfiction called He's A Hero that crosses My Hero Academia, One Piece, and Xenoblade Chronicles 3 into such a fun adventure to read about. So it inspired me to rework my ideas.
This is a three way crossover between Miraculous Ladybug, My Hero Academia, and One Piece.
Also there will be as little salt as possible if you Miraculous fans know what I'm talking about. Can't think of anything else to say for now.
So, all rights belong to the creators of all three characters and I have no right to say anything is mine, save for a possible future OC down the line. Supreme_King_Nero made one after all.
Chapter 1: We Are…
Walking up a flight of stairs…The last flight of stairs he would ever walk up.
A man, tall and imposing, wearing a red pirate jacket with gold epaulets, his shaggy black hair obscuring his features save for his prominent, bushy mustache, a wooden handcuff around his wrists, walks up these stairs surrounded by guards, his executioners.
It's sunny and humid, a normal day at sea in this town.
'Loguetown sure does look lovely today…The town where I was born and raised…Fitting for an execution.' The man thinks.
At the top, he looks around, sees his two students crying in the crowd, most of whom are sweating bullets in his presence. Even the guards are sweating. But not the seven, and he wondered about a simple thing.
"Any last words?!" One of the guards asks.
"Yeah, can we take these shackles off? My wrists are getting sore and it's not like I'm gonna run off." He requests.
"Out of the question." The executioner tells him.
"Geez, make a guy feel lonely." The dead man grumbles as he sits on the ground crossing his legs, "All right, let's get this over with."
As the men were about to stab him in the heart, someone in the crowd couldn't take it any more and had to ask an important question.
"Hey! Roger! You're the King of the Pirates! Where did you hide your treasure!? Is it in the Grand Line or someplace else?! You found it, right?! Did you find the treasure called One Piece?"
"Shut that man up now!" The captain of the executioners shouts to his men.
Hearing one man in a crowd of hundreds ask the one question he's been waiting to hear…Made Roger laugh. Laugh so hard his hair finally got out of his eyes and Gold Roger, King of the Pirates shouted at the top of his lungs one thing with a smile on his face going from ear to ear:
"You want my treasure?! YOU CAN HAVE IT! I left everything I own in one place! Now you have to find it!"
With those final words, the King of the Pirates was executed, but nobody in the World Government could have predicted how those words would inspire men and women across the world to take to the sea to find the One Piece. Thus, the Great Pirate Era has begun.
Eleven years later…
"Oi, Deku, you really wanna hang out with those pirates?" asks a young boy, probably six years old, wearing a black t-shirt with bleach blonde hair spiked in every direction like a bomb exploded and piercing red eyes.
"W-Well, they're not all that scary like those pirate stories we heard, and they are good customers to my mom, so I gotta show gratitude, Kacchan." says a boy the same age with curly forest green hair and big green eyes with freckles across his cheeks, wearing a white t-shirt.
"Tch, Deku you're a bleedin' heart. You go help your mom out, I'm gonna go explorin' with the two bakas." The boy called Kacchan tells him as he runs off.
The boy called Deku rushes over to the Party's Bar where his mother works. The bar is full of various pirates drinking fine grog and some smoking tobacco. One of the pirates with a rotund body dressed in a green and white striped shirt, bandana, and goggles munching on a hunk of meat on a bone, calls out, "Oi, Captain! Miss Inko! Little Izu is here!"
"Izuku!" Two people call out.
The closest is a man in his late twenties wearing a white button up shirt with a black coat draped over his shoulders, a yellow straw hat sitting on his ruby red hair, a bit of stubble to his innocent face, though a trio of scar runs across his left eye.
The woman is a little bit older, in her mid thirties with green shoulder length hair shaded like the boy, and kept in a ponytail wearing a pink sweater with an apron wrapped around her. Izuku walks up to hug the woman, "Hi, Mom."
"Yo ho ho ho~! Yo ho ho ho~!" The pirate crew starts singing.
Izuku tries to sing along, but his eyes are big like saucers, a clear sign of nervousness. This catches the redhead's attention.
"Hey, Izuku," he says to get his attention, "relax a little, it's not like we're making you walk the plank."
"Y-Yes, sorry Shanks-San." Izuku apologizes.
"No, no, Izuku. You're doing it wrong. When among friends, you don't get nervous. You gotta be like… I don't wanna say be like Katsuki, he gives everyone nicknames… Oh, how's this? 'You Got It Shanks!'" He poses with a finger pointed to the sky while laughing.
All of a sudden, one of the saloon doors is kicked open.
"Excuse us, we just wanted to see what passes for pirates these days. Hate to say it, but I'm not impressed." Says a man in a red jacket with a rapier at his belt with a bearded face with a scar on his forehead, and hair in a ponytail.
"A fatso, an old man, a dope smoker, and some guy who looks like he's going fishing." The man continues on while taking a seat next to Shanks, who is enjoying his meal.
"Welcome, sir. How can we help you?" Inko asks politely.
"I'm Higuma 'The Bear,' leader of these mountain bandits, and we want ten barrels of sake." Orders the bandit.
"I'm sorry sir, but we sold our last bottle of sake for the day. If you come by tomorrow we'll have a fresh shipment." Izuku's mother apologizes.
"I'm guessing these pirates bought the last bottle?" Higuma scoffs.
"We have some bottles still available. Here." Shanks offers him a bottle of sake.
The bandit punches the bottle, drenching the affable man in sake.
"I'm a wanted man with a bounty of eight million Berries on my head. One bottle isn't enough to be a nightcap, so don't insult me." The older man threatens.
"Oh, shoot, sorry Inko, but the floor got pretty wet. Can I borrow a rag?" Worries the straw hat wearing man.
Higuma brandishes his rapier and slashes against the bar, breaking a plate and glass.
"A place with no sake is no place for us. Let's go." Orders Higuma.
"Shanks-San, are you alright?" Asks Inko.
"Not a problem in the world, Lady Inko. Though it is pretty funny." Shanks assures her before he starts laughing.
The crew joins in, with an older man with creases in his forehead and white streaked hair with a white button up shirt slapping a table.
"Man, Shanks, you know how to make an old man feel alive." He blurts out between laughs.
"Yeah, yeah, don't choke on your laughing, Hide. You have granddaughters to think of." The captain tells him.
Izuku, however, wasn't laughing, and spots what looks like some kind of purple fruit with swirls and grabs at it and starts eating it.
'How can they be able to brush off a bully like that? I'd like to know.' Izuku thinks to himself.
"Eating out of frustration, kiddo?" Shanks asks with curiosity, before he sees what the boy is eating since the small box next to him was open…And empty.
"Wait! What are you eating?! Did you seriously eat the fruit inside that box?!" The chill man is now in a panic.
"You gotta spit it out now!" He warns while grabbing his ankles and leaving him dangling.
However, during the shaking, Izuku's legs stretch, until his face lands on the ground.
"W-W-What the-?" The boy doesn't get a chance to finish.
"Izuku, you just ate the Gum-Gum Fruit! One of the many Devil Fruits in the world! Eating one makes you superhuman but you'll never swim again! You're now made of rubber! YOU DUMBASS!" Shanks screams that last part till the whole village shakes.
Later That Day…
The mayor of the village, wearing a simple yellow button up shirt with a red and white striped fishing hat and pants with glasses, and a beard's stubble was just resting in his home with a cane close by when Inko rushes through his front door, "Mayor-San, I need your help! Those bandits took Izuku and Katsuki!"
The mayor starts running when he spots a taller woman nearby, looking like a female Katsuki save for the lavender dress. She ends up joining them.
"Inko, Mitsuki, what happened exactly?" asks the Mayor.
"My dumbass kid heard from little Izu how Higuma's punks were bullying Shanks and he thought they should go and call them out." Responds Mitsuki.
They get to the center of town where a crowd is springing up. They spot Higuma standing there with a foot on both boys' heads.
"You two should really watch where you flap your gums, kids." He warns, "Nobody has ever talked down to me and lived through it."
As he brandishes a sword, the mayor panics.
"Wait, please! Let those boys go!" The old man calls out, "I don't know what those boys said to upset you and I don't intend to fight over this. But if you stop I can pay you whatever amount you want!"
Watching the mayor get on his hands and knees made Izuku start to cry.
"These kids made me angry, nothing can save them." Higuma tells him before brandishing his rapier.
"I was wondering why the bar was so empty during the lunch rush."
Everyone turns to see Shanks and his crew standing guard.
"Oh Mitsuki. Haven't seen you in ages, how's Masaru?" Shanks asks nonchalantly.
He walks up to the bandits with open hands away from his own sword on his belt.
"Now then, I must ask you to let those boys go. They've dreamed of being heroes since before I came to this island. Little bomber over there is dead set on being a marine, which I can respect. And Izuku, well, Marine, Pirate, whatever he'll be, he will do it without hesitation." The Pirate captain tells the Bandit Leader.
"Is a floor cleaner like you giving me orders?" The older man asks with a twitch of rage visible on his forehead as a blood vessel becomes visible, "If you wanna give me orders, let my gunslinger over here put a bullet through your ear."
Shanks looks over and sees a man putting a revolver to his temple. But Shanks smiles.
"Have you ever pulled the trigger without risking your life?" He asks with darkened eyes.
"What are you blabbering about?" Wonders the confused gunman.
"Now you've pulled the gun, can you pull the trigger? They're not for threats but action after all." Shanks points out to him.
BANG!
The fat green and white striped pirate shoots the man in his own temple without even looking away from his meat.
"Who do you think you are!? Think you can get away with fighting dirty like that?!" Demands one of the bandits.
"Dirty? You forget who you're fighting? Do we look like saints?" Asks Hide.
"You fellas are staring down a crew of pirates after all." Points out Shanks.
"Why do you even care? We just want the boys!" Another bandit points out.
"Pour sake on me or ruin my food, hell I can handle being spit on and laugh at it all being a joke. But if you hurt my friends, you'll pay." Shanks warns with a scowl now visible.
"We're gonna pay? Lousy pirates. Kill them all, men!" Higuma orders his people.
When the men charge, the smoking man in a black tank top with his hair pulled back in a ponytail grabs his gun and beats them all back with the handle of the gun. With Higuma the only bandit left standing he panics.
"You gotta be kidding! The brats attacked us!" He lies.
"Aren't you a wanted man? Have some dignity." Shanks doesn't hesitate to point out.
The coward grabs a smoke bomb and throws it down to the ground.
"Oh No!" Shanks dramatically calls out gripping his head, "What do we do!?"
"Boss, don't worry we can find them in no time." Hide assures.
Out at sea, Higuma stole a rowboat and is now holding the two boys by the shirt before he throws them into the water.
As soon as they hit the water, Katsuki starts swimming for the surface, but sees Izuku isn't coming up.
"Dammit, Deku! Did Auntie Inko never teach you to not eat random shit?!" He screams before diving back under.
While Higuma is laughing at the pair, a giant red eyed eel monster rises out of the water and swallows the boat whole with the Bandit still on board. By the time Katsuki got his friend out of the water, he already saw the King of the Sea barreling towards them. But at the last second, the two boys find Shanks hugging them with his right arm and glaring at the sea monster. When they made eye contact the monster swam away in terror. With it gone, Shanks looks at the two boys and smiles.
"Izuku, Katsuki, I owe you two so much for this. Your mothers told me how you stood up for me. Especially you Katsuki, a boy wanting to be a marine protecting a pirate." He can't help but say.
Izuku is crying too hard to pay attention, while Katsuki is on the verge of tears.
"Ginger Hair, don't say such cool things." Katsuki blurts out, "You should be crying out in pain."
And why would Shanks cry out? Well, the King of the Sea had bitten off his left arm right below the shoulder.
"It's just an arm. A scratch, flesh wound even." Shanks assures, "I've got another, and I'm just glad you two are safe."
After that day, the pirates began packing up all their belongings onto their ship and set sail once more.
"That was a nice vacation but now we gotta set sail once more." Shanks will tell the villagers.
"Don't go losin' the other arm, Ginger Hair." Katsuki tells him, "Cuz since I'm gonna be a marine, it'll mean a hollow victory for me when I catch you."
"Oh, listen to the pomeranian, already knowing he'll catch me." Shanks starts laughing, with even the little boy joining in before he realizes what he's been called.
"What was that?!" He screams.
"Shanks-San!" Izuku suddenly calls out.
"What is it, Izuku?" The one armed man asks.
"I'm gonna set sail, find a crew of my own, be a great pirate, and I'm gonna find you to say thank you! In a way as equals, not as a little kid and his teacher!" The little boy shouts with gusto.
"Oh really? And how will you know when that time is?" Said teacher asks with wonder.
"I'll find One Piece! I'll be King of the Pirates!"
"Did Lil Midoriya just say…" The mayor stammers ready to drop dead.
"Little Izu…" Mitsuki smiles with tears in her eyes.
"Izuku~!" Inko starts to cry herself a river. That's not a metaphor, she literally cried a new river into the island.
"You got balls, Deku." Katsuki smiles with manic eyes.
The pirate crew starts to laugh. But Shanks takes off his straw hat and puts it onto Izuku's head.
"In that case, hold on to this for me. This hat is a very personal treasure so give it to me when you do find the One Piece." Shanks tells him.
Watching them sail away, everyone smiles warmly. But Mitsuki smacks her son's head.
"What did I tell you about given' people weird nicknames. Where'd you even get 'Deku' from?" She demands.
"His name is Midoriya D. Izuku." Her son explains, "The D Stands For Deku. And Deku, if you're gonna be King of the Pirates, I'll be the Grand Admiral to catch you."
The two bump their fists while watching Shanks sail off.
Ten Years Later…
"Next stop, Loguetown!" A ticket taker shouts out at a boat about to set sail.
Several men, women, and children line up to board the ferry, heading off to parts unknown. Save for one, a now teenaged Katsuki, who is wearing a black tank top with a skull made out of squares across the chest and green cargo pants, a duffle bag hanging off his shoulder.
His father Masaru, a man with shaggy brown hair, glasses and a scruff of hair on his chin, is crying tears of joy while Mitsuki is shouting at him.
"Katsuki! You better be writing to me you dumbass! I do not want to be forgotten until your CO comes here to tell me a mom's worst nightmare!" She screams at the top of her lungs.
"Shut up, you old hag! You're embarrassing dad!" He shouts back.
Watching this in the distance is Izuku and his mother, the age now prominent in the two. Izuku matches his mother in height, wearing denim shorts with sandals, a green button up vest and Shanks' straw hat on top of his head, smiling proudly at his friend. His mother has put on some weight in the last ten years, with a softer face and wider hips, but still considerably quite beautiful.
"Aren't you gonna say bye to Katsuki, Izuku?" His mother wonders.
"We said our goodbyes earlier. Not a good career choice for the future Grand Admiral to be shown to be friends with the future King of the Pirates." Her son explains.
"Is that why you're not getting on that boat with him?" Inko worries, since the only other bay off the island leads to the King of the Seas den.
"That, and plus…That overgrown tadpole owes Shanks an arm." He assures with a smile on his face.
"My sweet baby boy…Leaving to be King of the Pirates…Fighting sea monsters…" The poor woman whimpers in between tears.
He hugs her before heading over to the opposite pier, watching Katsuki sail off for Loguetown. Before he remembers something.
"Oh, and mom, I forgot the third reason. Going straight to Loguetown skips over a dozen islands! Where's the fun in going straight to the finish line?" Izuku says as he walks up to the mayor.
"Are you sure you want this fishing boat? We can get you something bigger to get to another island, Midoriya." The Mayor wonders.
"This'll be fine for now. I need a proper pirate ship, and I can't take a ship needed by the village." Izuku assures him.
So with that he starts sailing, with several villagers standing at the pier to wave goodbye and him waving as well. That's when he saw it, the King of the Sea rose out of the water.
"Hey! Remember me?" Izuku screams at it, "This is for the arm you took from Shanks-San!"
"Gum-Gum…" He shouts as his arm stretches out over two, maybe three, meters, "Pistol!"
His right arm stretched so far it came back at lightning speed, hitting the overgrown eel in the jaw. Izuku watches as the monster sinks into the water, knocked out cold.
"To all my friends, my family," The boy tells himself, "This is the day! The day I begin my adventure to become King of the Pirates!"
…Though we have to have some pity for Izuku, because he just sailed his tiny boat right into a whirlpool. In the distance, a woman is watching high up in the sky. She has bright pink hair with a white domino mask on her face with white rabbit ears poking out. She's dressed in a white bodysuit with baby blue stripes with a parasol of the same color floating in the sky.
"Oh, hello there readers." She greets with a curtsy bow.
"My name is Alix. Kubdel Alix, but please just call me Bunnyx when I'm in this costume." The girl introduces herself.
"Don't be alarmed, or confused. I'm just here as a Watcher. Now if you're worried about little Midoriya there, don't be. He's already tucked himself away into a barrel to be picked up sooner or later." Alix assures while looking around before worrying, "...There is supposed to be a ship here right?"
…
…
"Oh man! Future me's gonna kill me!" Alix shouts at the top of her lungs, though none in this world can hear her.
