AN : I just couldn't stop. Also, I hope yo like my new story.

The man who (almost) died smilling.

With Sanji

The chef walked as his eyes were glued on each and every pretty lady. By pretty, it meant sexy or hot or even cute. Only for his eyes to bulge out as he saw a woman with a very beautiful face. Unfortunately for him, said ladlady dissapeared as he was buying an elephant tuna...

Only to run into Ussop who was buying a whole carton of eggs. Sanji thought that Ussop is some kind of a house wife before he called his comrade.

The two men then walked almost aimlessly.

Earlier with Zoro

The swordman walked in, his two friends further away to leave him alone. They'll get in later and get their second swords.. But for now, they waited.

Inside, the store owner was trying to convince Zoro to sell his Wado Ichimonji. Zoro however had enough.

"Look, this sword is something I'd never sell, not even for my own soul! Even if you give me a billion Berry, it is NOT for sell. End of discussion!" Zoro's tone almost terrified the man. The resolve in it was something else. Something you don't usually see in that neck of wood... Not in that ocean...

"Fine! There's the barrel of scraps! Go get your two sword and get the heck outta here!" The store owner became grumpy again as Tashigi got in.

"Oh hey. It's you again. Oh, you got the Wado Ichimonji!" Tashigi squeeled as she saw the Meito. As she explained it's value, Zoro smirked before he told her...

"Don't get any idea. This sword isn't for sale. Actually, it's going to be in my hand once I die, in my final moments!" Zoro said as he got a sword that peeked his interest...

"You know, there's so many swords crying. I mean, swords that are used for evil. There's a guy I know about, Roronoa Zoro... He uses his swords to earn his food. I want to liberate these swords!" Tashigi said with resolve.

"So you intend to get this one too, huh?" Zoro said with a challenging smirk. Tashigi put her hand up in defense.

" No I don't..." She begun only for Zoro to pull out a sword.

"So, how this about this one?" Zoro asked Tashigi who was shocked.

"A meito of the 50 grade... Sandai Kitetsu. This sword is worth a few hundred thousands! Why is it in the barrel of the 50,000 berries?" Tashigi asked with shoc literally written on her face. The store owner panocked.

"Hey, don't even think about buying this sword. It's..." The store owner yelled at Zoro who smirked.

"It's a cursed blade. I can feel it. I can feel that I really like this one..." Zoro smirked as he tossed the sword up in the air before he outstretched his arm.

'Curse Vs Luck. Who will win?' Zoro thought as he closed his eyes. Tashigi and the store owner's warnings fell on deaf ears as the sword descended in a high speed only to...

Completely aboid Zoro's arm. Tashigi fell backwards, the store Owner almost had a heart attack and Zoro? He just grinned as he pulled the sword out of the ground where it was burried almost to it's hilt.

"I love it! This one is gonna be very fun to use. Say, could you help me finding another sword?" Zoro told a stoll shell shocked Tashigi.

"Wait please! This is my best sword. Yubashiri. It's a light long blade with and amazing handling. You'll get along very greatly." The store owner offered Zoro.

"So, how much do I owe you?" Zoro asked only for the man to shake his head.

"On the house! The sword choose his master, and I think they just did!" The man offered the swords to Zoro who bowed gratefully and went out. Yusaku and Johnny waited until Tashigi got out and entered the store. They settled for two different swords. Johnny choose a light blade, while Yusaku choose a heavy blade. While not very sharp, once they said that the man who was out is their older brother, the man offered them a whetstone for free. That would be great for them... They sooo gonna need it...

Meanwhile with Nami and Nojiko

The two sisters bought a lot of clothes. More than they needed actually, but they decided to give some for the crew should need arises.. After all, their captain ordered them, no? However, Nami asked for a vhenil bag as she explained to Nojiko that it os their time to get outta dodge and fast, as a storm is approaching and fast. Very fast...

As they all walked, they soon found each other... In a crossroad of all things. Soon enough, they found out that their captain was missing. Zoro and Sanji opted to go and get him. The others however hurried to the harbor.

With Luffy

"So this is what the late pirate king saw in his last moments... That's cool!" Luffy said as police officers asked him to come off the platform, only for an iron mace to hit them.

"My, my, I was looking for you, Luffy." That sexy lady said.

"Who are you? I don't know any beautiful women." Luffy replied.

"Why, a flatterer. I don't remember that. I still remember how you handled me so roughly. You punched me that hard." The woman continued. "Tell me, who is the most beautiful woman in all of the seas?"

"It's definitely you!" The whole crowd chorused.

"Lady I assure you that I only hit one woman... Wait a second, that's you Alvida? How did you swap bodies?" Luffy asked in confusion.

"I guess that it did change me.. My frickles diapeared after all..." Alvida commented only for Luffy to yell.

"That's not what I meant! You whole body did change!" Luffy replied.

Before he knows, someone put a shackles over his head and arms.

"I guess you remember me then!" A clown said.

"Oh, it's only you Buggy!" Luffy said in boredom.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT'S ONLY YOU?" Buggy screamed in anger.

Meanwhile with Smoker

"Smoker-san, the pirates are executing another pirate!" A marine reported.

"Let them be. Once they're done, we'll move in!" Smoker ordered.

With Luffy

"Any last words?" Cabaji said only for Zoro and Sanji to start kicking and slashing their men left and right.

"Damn! Go stop that Roronoa." Buggy ordered as he picked up the sword. "It doesn't matter..." He said as Luffy sucked in a huge gulp of air.

"I'M THE MAN WHO WILL BE THE PIRATE KING!" Luffy yelled as everyone was shocked. "SO EVERYONE, SET SAILS TOWARD YOUR DREAM!"

Buggy yelled in rage as he brought the sword downward.

"Zoro, Nami, Ussop, Sanji, Nojiko, Yusaku, Johnny, sorry I died!" Luffy said as he closed his eyes and grinned.

"He smiled at the face of death?" Smoker asked himself only for a lightning bolt to come down crushing on Buggy, completely burning and obliterating the platform.

"Oh, I'm still alive. Thank Goodness!" Luffy smiled as Sanji turned to Zoro and asked...

"Do you believe in God?" Sanji's only logical question.

"Now isn't the time. Let's go!" Zoro told them as they hurried toward the harbor. Speaking of which.

The harbor

"Heh, just a lion and a coward!" Yusaku muttered.

"Even us would be insulted by this!" Johnny said as he shook his head. They were on the ship. Richie and Mohji laid in a pool of their own blood...

The streets of Loguetown

Luffy, Zoro and Sanji were running toward the harbor. On their way however, Tashigi intercepted Zoro. As she challenged him, Luffy dragged Sanji.

"Zoro won't hurt her. He's a good guy actually. But that guy in front of you is out of your league. Just go get Zoro!" Luffy said as he observed a certain Marine Captain.

"So, you're a pirate, huh? You have no bounty but... It is my duty to arrest you!" The man known as Smoker said. Luffy however smirked.

"Sorry but... You better go to sleep now!" The captain smirked as he dissapeared. One good Haki enhanced punch on the stomach later, and Smoker was out.

"Next time you better learn Haki!" Luffy said as Smoker fell into the bliss of unconsciousness. "And you, the strong guy, what's your name?" Luffy said.

"Dragon. You?" The tall cloaked man replied.

"Luffy. Nice to meet you." Luffy replied.

"Luffy, I'm your father. Tell me, want to join the revolutionary army?" Dragon begun.

"No. I want to be the pirate king!" Luffy said. "True, I missed everyone on Fuusha but... Yeah, the sea is amazing!"

"I was in Goa ten years ago." Dragon replied.

"I lost my brother Sabo ten years ago." Luffy told his father before he sighed.

"I have someone called Sabo but he lost his memories but his name." Dragon said only for Luffy to jump at him.

"He's a blond man with wavy hair, twenty of age?" Luffy asked and as Dragon nodded, Luffy smirked. "Tell him he have two brothers. Ace and Luffy. I don't care how, but he's gonna remember us!" Luffy said only for Dragon to laugh.

"Shishishishishi! The least I expected from my son. Now, here. These will help your crew. Anyways, now time for you to go. Go and fullfil my dream. Go and set sail, if that's what you want." Dragon grinned as Luffy was sent away by a gust of wind. Green hurricane class wind.
