Summary- While voyaging through the New World, the Straw Hats pick up a new friend: a little raccoon dog by the name of Pato, who needs to meet someone at the Island of Promises. However, upon getting there, the Luffy's crew is captured by a mysterious villain known as Patrick Redfield, who was once on par with Roger and Whitebeard in his time! With help from Pato, Luffy must find a way to rescue his friends, as well as defeat the old enemies he once fought before! Based off the video game.
Prologue
On a secluded island, somewhere in the New World…General Inspector Sengoku and former Vice-Admiral Monkey D. Garp are having a rather grim conversation. It had been 2 years since the Paramount War, and both have since retired. However, they had just received some rather troubling news regarding the escapees from Impel Down.
"Are you telling me," Sengoku started, "that Redfield, also known as 'The Red Count', was among the Level 6 prisoners released by Blackbeard in Impel Down?!"
"Redfield, you say?" Garp asked. "Ah…I remember him. He was once on par with Gol D. Roger and Whitebeard…he just didn't leave as much of a mark on the times as they did. Do you really think he's worth fussing over, Sengoku?"
"Typical Garp," Sengoku quipped. "You don't realize how much trouble the world could be in for. Redfield is also known as 'Red the Aloof'. Above all else, he hates forming alliances and tends to keep to himself. Do you understand what that means? He works alone! He is a man who was at odds with the likes of Roger and Whitebeard!"

Somewhere in another part of the New World, the Marines are currently under attack. Many soldiers lie on the ground, injured, while others scrambled to fight off the enemy…and it is revealed to be Vice-Admiral Smoker and, for some reason, former Admiral Aokiji- AKA Kuzan- back in his Marine uniform. The two used their Devil Fruit powers in conjunction to bring down their own allies…but why?
As the Marines were being attacked…a mysterious figure appeared on the deck of their battleship. He appeared to be a tall old man with red and white hair that was braided at the sides, as well as a white goatee and circular eyebrows. He has a gold lip piercing that was chained to his earring on his left earlobe. His outfit consists of a purple shirt with a ruffled collar, as well as a red cloak with a gold-and-blue diamond pattern on the inside, complimented by a big blue rose on the side.
"We meet at last, Marines," the man said as Smoker and Aokiji stood besides him. "Sorry to keep you waiting."
"FIRE!" shouted a Marine Captain.
BOOM! BOOM! A battleship fired at the old man, who glared to his left, as if to command Smoker to attack, and that's just what the Vice-Admiral did. He swung his sea prism stone jutte at the captain, knocking him down. As he tried to get back up, Aokiji slammed his icy foot onto his skull, pinning him to the deck.
"W…what the hell are you doing?!" the Marine Captain questioned. "Why are allies with the likes of him?!"
"Allies?" the old man asked as he approached him, holding what looked like a rapier and an umbrella with a bat-shaped handle. "I have no allies. I work alone!"
SLASH! With one fell swing, the elderly man struck the Marine Captain, who screamed in agony…before he fell limp. The man then brushed his cloak of any dust or blood that had gotten on him. He then reached inside his cloak, as if searching for something, only to pause for a moment.
"…Ah…!" he gasped. "I seemed to have misplaced it!"
He then sighed and chuckled to himself.
"The years must be catching up to me," he said, jokingly as he looked up at the sky, which had been blackened by the smoke of the destroyed battleships around him…and Aokiji and Smoker had mysteriously vanished

Meanwhile, in another part of the New World…
"Coup de BURST!"
WHOOSH! The Thousand Sunny shot off into the air, flying through the sky.
"YAHOO~!" cheered Monkey D. Luffy and his younger half-sister, Monkey D. Aika as they sat on the figurehead.
With a mighty splash, the Sunny landed on the water's surface before sailing onward.
"Big Brother!" Aika called, sitting in Luffy's lap. "Look, up ahead!"
"Huh?" Luffy muttered as he looked ahead and saw an island in the distance.
"See?" Aika asked. "It's an island, right?"
"Oh, yeah!" Luffy exclaimed before he glanced back. "Hey, Raccoon! Is that it, up ahead? The Island of Promises?"
Sitting on the railing, a little raccoon dog wearing a pink raincoat and blue pants is seen, writing on a leaf. His tail, which is golden yellow with brown stripes, seemed to be in the shape of a pen's tip.
Once the little raccoon dog finished, he threw the leaf into the air, and in a puff of smoke, it transformed into a blue spyglass, which fell into his paws before he looked through the lens.
"Ah!" he chirped, eyeing the island through the spyglass. "There's no mistaking it! That's the island, all right! Nukiki!"
At that moment, Brook walked up to the little raccoon dog, tipping his hat to him.
"Mr. Pato," the skeleton said. "Although it was regrettably brief, it appears your journey with us ends here."
"Oh, yeah!" the raccoon dog, known as Pato, agreed. "I suppose you're right!"
"Just don't forget who fished you outta the sea, little buddy!" exclaimed Usopp.
"And don't forget who also saved you from becoming raccoon dog stew," Nami added, playfully poking Pato in the forehead, causing him to giggle sheepishly.
Nearby, Tony-Tony Chopper, Blizzard, and Kumi lie on the deck.
"I'm gonna miss having Pato around," said Kumi. "He was a lot of fun."
"Yeah, but he did say he had to meet someone on this island we're going to," replied Blizzard. "It's for the best."
"Yeah, I guess so," agreed Chopper. "Still, I'm glad we got to make a new friend!"
"Hey, Chopper," said Sanji as he approached the little reindeer and knelt down to his height level. "I know it's gotta be tough for you, but it's time for you to say goodbye to your brother."
"I AM NOT A RACCOON DOG!" Chopper barked angrily.
Nico Robin and Franky sat by the helm, chuckling at Chopper's ranting, but then, Luffy and Aika jumped down from the figurehead in front of them.
"What's wrong, Luffy?" Robin asked. "You seem rather chipper, for some reason."
"It's the smell!" Aika answered.
"The smell?" Franky repeated.
"Yeah!" Luffy replied. "Can't you smell it?! That island…I can just smell an amazing adventure coming from it!"
"An amazing adventure, eh?" asked Roronoa Zoro. "I guess it pays to help out a raccoon dog, huh?"
"It sure does," Aika answered. "Shishishi!"
"Nukiki!" Pato giggled as he walked up to Luffy. "So, have I repaid the favor?"
"Yeah!" Luffy and Zoro answered.
"DAMN RIGHT!" Usopp and Nami shouted, comically angry.
"Get ready to disembark, Franky!" Usopp ordered.
"You got it!" Franky answered.
"Sanji!" Luffy called with Aika riding shotgun on his back. "Make me a Pirate Lunchbox, on the double!"
"You got it," Sanji replied.
As the Straw Hats prepared to disembark…they had no idea they were in for yet another exciting adventure.

Soon, the Straw Hats moored on the sandy shore of the island, and as usual, Luffy, Usopp, Chopper, Blizzard, Aika, and Kumi, as well as Pato, were the first to eagerly go ashore. Not long after, Nami and the others soon followed.
"All right! First things first!" the navigator exclaimed. "While we're in town, we're gonna need some supplies. Sanji and Brook are in charge of grocery shopping."
"Leave it to me, Nami-swan~!" Sanji swooned with hearts in his eyes, happily swaying back and forth.
"Time to put these old bones to work!" Brook added.
"Usopp and Franky are in charge of getting whatever we need for ship repairs," said Nami, looking to the sniper and shipwright.
"OW!" Franky exclaimed. "SUPER leave it to us!"
"Chopper is in charge of medicine detail," Nami added, glancing at Chopper.
"Makes sense, considering I'm the doctor!" Chopper replied, eagerly.
"As for Zoro," Nami began, "well…you'll get lost the first chance you get, so you're staying here with Blizzard to guard the ship."
"HEY!" Zoro barked while Blizzard snickered at him.
"Oh, Zoro, it's not that bad," Robin said. "You can use this chance to catch up on your training."
"…I guess," Zoro muttered.
"As for Robin and I," Nami said, "we're going window shopping~!"
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!" Usopp questioned.
"What?" Nami asked. "Clothing is important, too, you know…especially the kind that leave little to the imagination." She stuck her tongue out in a teasing manner at this.
"Happy hunting~!" Sanji and Brook called, the former still having hearts in his eyes.
"Big Sis Nami," Aika said, "you're gonna get me those sunglasses I always wanted, right? The ones with the heart-shaped frames?"
"Of course, honey!" Nami replied as she gently pet Aika on the head. "Anything for my little sister!"
"Hey, Nami!"
Nami looked over at Pato, who looked up at her eagerly.
"What about me?" the little raccoon dog asked. "What can I do, huh? Huh?!"
"Didn't you say you were meeting someone on this island?" Nami asked, crouching down in front of him to meet his eyes.
"Ah…that's right!" Pato replied, realizing.
"Well, I guess this is it then, Pato," Nami answered. "We'll be in town, restocking our supplies, so if you need us, just come and find any of us, okay?"
"Yes, Nami!" Pato answered before he bowed. "Thank you for bringing me this far! Nukiki!"
"Now then," Nami began as she stood upright, "as for you, Luffy…"
Luffy, who was just about ready to walk away, froze upon hearing his name being called in a stern tone.
"Yes, oh loveable navigator of mine?" Luffy asked with a sheepish grin.
"I know this is probably too much to ask from you," his fiancé said, "but PLEASE try and stay out of trouble, this time, okay?"
"Oh, please," Luffy muttered. "When was the last time I caused trouble?"
"There was one time last week when you-" Nami started, but she was quickly cut off.
"Okay, that's nice," Luffy said. "C'mon, Aika! Kumi! Time to go exploring!"
"Coming, Big Brother!" Aika replied as she and Kumi prepared to follow Luffy, but not before Nami gently caught the former by her shoulder.
"Aika," Nami said, "keep an eye your brother, okay, sweetheart?"
"Yes, Big Sis Nami," Aika replied.
"Good girl," Nami praised as she kissed her on the cheek.
"Come on, Aika!" Luffy called as he stretched his arms and grabbed the sign post with Kumi already holding onto his shoulders.
"Right! Wait for me!" Aika called back as she ran over and climbed on, as well.
"Luffy!" Nami called. "When we're done shopping, meet us at the inn! And don't you wander off without telling someone, first!"
"Yeah, I know Nami!" Luffy called before he Gum-Gum Rocketed himself into town.
"WOO-HOOOOOOOOO~!" the D. Siblings cheered while Kumi had comical tears of terror in her eyes.
"I HATE THIS RIDE~!" she howled.

Later on, Luffy, Aika, and Kumi soon landed in the middle of the town…which did not seem very developed. Sure, there are a bunch of people, young and old, cheerily walking through the streets, but there are also old crates, shelves, and buildings that seemed not to be open yet. Still, it didn't seem to matter to Luffy. He and Aika were focused on one thing and one thing only: exploring.
"What do you think we should do first, Big Brother?" asked Aika.
Luffy was about to answer her, but instead, his stomach gave her his answer for him in the form of a low, angry growl.
"Shishishi!" Luffy chuckled as he rubbed his empty belly. "I guess the first thing we should do is find someplace to eat!"
"Maybe the townspeople can recommend something," Kumi suggested.
"Good idea!" Luffy answered. "Let's ask around!"
"Hey, Mister! Come here!"
Luffy, Aika, and Kumi looked up to see a little boy sitting on a barrel.
"What's up?" Luffy asked as the three walked over to him.
"How'd you do that, back there?" asked the boy. "You know, the thing with your arms? I wanna see that super speed of yours!"
"Super speed?" Aika repeated. "Oh! You must mean by Big Brother's Gum-Gum Rocket, right?"
"How about some grub, first?" Luffy asked, patting his stomach. "I'm starved."
"If you're hungry, go and talk to Yadoya at the inn," the boy replied. "Her place is just east from here."
"Thank you!" Aika answered.
"No problem!" the boy answered. "Now, show me that super speed of yours!"
"You got it!" Luffy exclaimed with a cocky grin. "Check this out! Aika, Kumi! Climb on!"
Aika and Kumi nodded before they did just that. Not long after, Luffy stretched his arms up and grabbed the roof of the building in front of him.
"Now Gum-Gum…ROCKET!"
WHOOSH! Luffy flew through the air with Aika and a once again terrified Kumi on his back.
"WHOO-HOO!" Aika cheered.
"WOW~!" the little boy exclaimed as he watched them soar across the town and jumping across rooftops like a monkey. Eventually, they reached the east side of town, thanks to Aika pointing the way.
"Those lessons with Nami have been paying off, huh, sis?" Luffy asked.
"Yep!" Aika answered. "Shishishishi!"
As they looked around, they spotted the local inn nearby, with a man standing out front.
"Yo!" Luffy greeted as he approached with the two youngsters tailing behind him.
"Good day, sir!" the man said. "Looking for some lodgings?"
"Yeah, and a bite to eat, too!" Luffy said, rubbing his growling stomach, once more.
"Well, sorry, but the owner's not in, right now," said the man. "Her name is Yadoya."
"Well, where is Miss Yadoya?" asked Aika.
"Last time I saw her, she went down to the square, down there," the man replied, pointing to some stairs leading to an open area.
"Big Brother, you think we should go look?" Aika asked.
"Did you even have to ask?" Luffy asked as he went down the stairs with the little Wolf-Girl and her Akita puppy following behind. As soon as they reached the bottom, the spotted a young woman, about Nami's age, maybe at least 2 years younger than she is, and she has fair skin, wide brown eyes, and light brown hair that had been tied up in a bun, as well as two bangs on the side that curl upwards. She wears a pair of round-framed glasses on her face, a teal dress with a geometric pattern on the collar and the sleeves are rolled up to her elbows, and a pair of brown sandals. She also has on a yellow-green tie and an orange apron with a maroon woven pattern on it.
Standing in front of the woman are two tall, certainly questionable men, both holding sabers in their hands.
"What's going on here?" Aika asked.
"Aika, you and Kumi stay back," Luffy said before he went over while the two youngsters stayed behind.
"What do you two punks want?" the woman asked.
"What else?" asked one of the men. "We're the protectors of this island, and we demand payment for our services!"
"No way!" the woman answered. "I don't need any protection from the likes of you!"
"Is that so?" asked one of the thugs. "Well, in that case, maybe we should trash your inn, just to show you what happens to those who don't wanna pay!"
"Hold it!" shouted Luffy, who stood between the woman and the two thugs. "How are we supposed to eat at that inn if you trash it?!"
"Uh…what?" the woman asked, both surprised by Luffy's appearance and confused by his statement.
"Who the hell are you, you little punk?!" asked one of the thugs. "Piss us off, and you'll pay the price!"
"Go get 'em, Big Brother!" Aika cheered while Kumi barked wildly.
The thugs roared as they both raised their sabers and charged at Luffy…who just disappeared in the blink of an eye!
"What the-?!"
"W-where'd that brat go?!"
"Hey! Over here!"
The two thugs turned and saw Luffy, who stretched his arms back, causing them, as well as they young woman to gasp.
"He's got Devil Fruit powers?!" they all questioned.
"Gum-Gum…TWIN PISTOL!" Luffy roared.
POW! Luffy slammed both of his fists into the thugs' faces, causing them to fall to the ground with bloody noses and missing teeth. They stood up and looked at Luffy, who glared at them, causing them both to gasp.
"W-wait!" said one of them. "That…that black hair…and that straw hat!"
"That X-shaped scar on his chest…it's…it's…!"
"STRAW HAT LUFFY!" they both cried before they got up and scrambled out of there as fast as they could!
"Bye-bye!" Aika called as she waved after them.
"And don't come back, you jerks!" Kumi added.
"Shishishi!" Luffy laughed.
"Wow!" Yadoya exclaimed. "You're THE Straw Hat Luffy?!"
"That's right!" Luffy answered as Aika and Kumi approached him. "And this is my little sister, Aika, and her dog, Kumi!"
"Hello," Aika greeted, politely while Kumi yipped happily.
"Nice to meet you," said the woman. "I'm Yadoya. Thank you for helping me. I don't know what I would've done without you! Is there anyway I can repay you?"
Grrrruuuuuuuuuurrrmgh…! Luffy's stomach growled once again in response, and Luffy laughed sheepishly.
"Well, I guess you could start by making us something to eat," he said.
"Sure thing!" Yadoya answered before she walked back to the inn with the D. Siblings and Kumi following behind her. "I hope you guys don't mind something simple. What'll it be?"
"Well…" Luffy began.
XXX
Inside the inn, Yadoya watched in shock as Luffy sat down at the table, surrounded by stacks and stacks of plates, and they just kept getting higher as he ate more and more. Aika sat next to him, with about half as many plates stacked around her. Of course, she didn't eat nearly as messily or noisily as her older half-brother.
Kumi stood on the floor, eating a bowl full of rice, eggs, and meat.
"You…certainly have healthy appetites," Yadoya noted.
"Shishishishi!" Luffy laughed, his stomach as big as a hot air balloon.
XXX
Meanwhile, on the Thousand Sunny, Zoro, Franky, and Blizzard are out on the deck, keeping watch. Well…Blizzard was keeping watch. Zoro and Franky were just sitting by the mast, drinking.
As they did, Sanji came by and picked up their messy plates before he walked away. However, Blizzard watched him with a suspicious glare.
'Something's not right here,' the wolf-dog thought. 'First of all…I thought Sanji was supposed to be out with the girls, getting food…and second…what's up with his scent?'
As Sanji walked, Blizzard spotted him…making a wicked grin.
'…That's not good,' he thought.
XXX
Back in town, Nami and Robin are walking down the street with Sanji and Brook, carrying their recent purchases. However, while Sanji continued his relentless shower of compliments to the girls, Brook looked absolutely exhausted.
What was strange, though…is that Sanji was just seen at the ship, earlier.
As they walked, they didn't notice Usopp, standing around the corner…holding a Pop Green in his hand and a wicked smirk upon his lips.
XXX
Concurrently, at the docks, Chopper is seen talking with Usopp, who is regaling him with another one of his tall tales. As they talked, they spotted Robin approaching.
"Oh! Hey, Robin!" Usopp called. "You done with shopping, already?"
As Robin drew closer, neither Usopp nor Chopper could see the same suspicious grin upon her face.
What was going on here?
XXX
Later that day, Luffy is still at the inn, only now, he is snoring away with Aika and Kumi lying curled up on his stomach. After they had eaten so much, they had decided to take a nap to sleep off all the food they had ingested.
"Hey, you three! Wake up!"
Luffy snorted as he sat up, muttering to himself as he rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. Aika and Kumi soon woke up, as well.
"What time is it?" Aika asked.
Luffy then looked over to see Yadoya, who stood by the bed with her hands on her hips and a glare in her eyes.
"Eh?" Luffy muttered. "Who're you?"
"I told you!" Yadoya said. "I'm Yadoya, the owner of this inn!"
"Oh," Luffy said before he looked and saw other people in the inn. "What about those people?"
"They're other customers who have come to eat and rest up a bit, just like you," Yadoya answered, "which leads us to our food and lodgings bill. We don't do credit, so you'll have to pay cash if you wanna stay."
"Uh…oops," Luffy muttered. "Sorry, but I don't have any money on me."
"Me either," Aika added.
Kumi just shook her head, as if to agree, causing Yadoya to sigh.
"Maybe if you wait for the rest of my crew, we could work something out," Luffy suggested.
"Well…maybe I can forget the bill as thanks for your help, earlier," Yadoya said, "but only on one condition!"
"A condition?" Luffy repeated.
"What condition?" asked Aika.
"LUFFY! COME QUICK! WE'VE GOT A PROBLEM!"
"Eh?" Luffy muttered. "Who's that?"
"LUFFY! WHERE ARE YOU?!"
"That sounds like Pato and Blizzard, Big Brother!" Aika said.
Confused, Luffy stood up from the bed and walked outside to indeed see Blizzard and Pato rushing over to the inn.
"Luffy!" Blizzard cried. "Is this where've you been?!"
"Yeah," Luffy said. "Nami said we'd all meet up here, later."
"Well, it looks like she and the others aren't gonna get here anytime soon!" Blizzard shouted.
"Why?" Luffy asked. "What happened?"
"Uhh…well," Pato muttered. "How else can I put this…? EVERYONE'S BEEN CAPTURED?!"
"Everybody?" Luffy asked, surprisingly seeming unconcerned.
"How can you not be shocked about this, Luffy?!" Blizzard questioned. "Everyone's gone!"
"Yeah!" Pato agreed. "Umm…Zoro and Sanji…and Nami, Robin, and Franky…and Chopper, Usopp, and Brook, too! Basically, everybody besides you, Blizzard, Aika, and Kumi!"
"So everyone's been captured?" Luffy asked. "Seriously?"
"YES, YOU NIMROD! EVERYONE!" Blizzard barked.
"We don't have much time!" Pato cried before he ran off. "Hurry! Follow me!"
"Right!" Luffy said before he jumped on Blizzard's back, preparing to follow the little raccoon dog.
"Wait a minute!" Yadoya cried. "W-what about me?!"
"Oh, yeah!" Luffy said. "You said you had a favor, right? How about I get back to you on that?"
"Seriously?" Yadoya asked. "A man's word is his bond, you know! You promise you'll come back to me on that favor?"
"Sure I will!" Luffy reassured. "Just do me a quick solid and look after Aika and Kumi while I'm gone. Just keep an extra special on Aika. She likes to wander off sometimes and get herself in trouble."
'Not surprising, considering whom her brother is,' Blizzard thought.
"Aww, come on, Big Brother!" Aika complained. "Can't I go with you, this time?"
"No, Aika," Luffy told her. "Wherever we're going, it's probably dangerous. I need you to stay here with Kumi and Yadoya, where it's safer."
Aika pouted and looked away, causing Luffy to sigh.
"Look, Aika," Blizzard said. "We need you and Kumi to stay here, okay? What if the others find their way back while we're gone?"
"So…you're saying you want me to be lookout?" Aika asked.
"Yeah! That's it!" Luffy said.
"Oh! Okay!" Aika said, eagerly. "Yeah! I'll be the lookout!"
"Good girl," Luffy praised.
"Luffy! Blizzard!" Pato called. "Come on!"
"Right, sorry!" Luffy called back. "Blizzard! Let's ride!"
With that, Blizzard galloped off after Pato with Luffy atop his back while Aika remained behind with Yadoya and Kumi.
"I hope they find the others," Aika said.
"I'm sure they will," Kumi reassured. "Who knows? Maybe Nami or anyone else might find their way back to us."
XXX
"So…you're really sure they all captured, just like that?" asked Luffy as he, Pato, and Blizzard sat near the entrance of Trans Town.
"I'm certain of it!" Pato said. "I saw it with my own eyes! It was…err…that guy! He took them all out of town and further inland!"
Blizzard couldn't help but notice that Pato sounded a bit unsure of his own words, but he simply shook it off and looked to Luffy.
"Luffy, I also noticed something odd," he said. "Sanji…he was acting kinda weird. I mean, first of all, I saw him go with Nami, Robin, and Brook earlier, and yet, he was also at the ship with Zoro, Franky, and me."
"Maybe he finished shopping early," Luffy said.
"There's more," Blizzard said. "His scent…it was different. I don't know what it was, but it definitely didn't smell like him, and then, as he picked up Zoro's and Franky's dirty dishes and headed to the kitchen…I saw this weird grin on his face, like he was plotting something."
"Yeah?" Luffy asked. "What happened afterwards?"
"Uh…I'm…not sure," Blizzard admitted. "After I ate my lunch…I fell asleep. When I woke up, Zoro and Franky were gone, and so was Sanji. Then Pato comes and tells me everyone's been captured, so we both left to find you."
"All right, then!" Luffy said. "I guess we'll just have to go inland and find them! Lead the way, Pato!"
Pato nodded before he scampered off with Luffy and Blizzard following behind him…unaware that a mysterious figure seemed to be watching from afar.
TO BE CONTINUED…
Okay, so...I kinda had this in mind for a while, especially now that I have the game. I considered that since Dressrosa's not gonna be over for a while that I might as well get this up.
So, read and review, and no flames or hate, please!
