Luffy, the girl who is going to become King of the Pirates

Chapter 1

She was merely three years old when her mother had died and her father had left to go out to sea. Not that she could help it. For Monkey D. Luffy was the daughter of the most wanted man in the world, Monkey D. Dragon. It was the day after her third birthday her father had left, not before he could mark her with his signature tattoo he had on his face that instead he plastered around her upper right arm. But that's a whole other story to be told. It was about an hour after Luffy's father left when the marines came. They had learned about Dragon lying low here for the past three years and were prepared to catch him and kill all of his associates at any 's when they began to slaughter the village. For they had no idea who Dragon associated with so the had to slaughter them all. Man, woman, child, it didn't matter to them. For all they knew, they could have been a part of Dragon's crew.

Luffy and her mother lived outside of the village in a small little house which gave them time to prepare. Luffy's Mother knew there would be no survivors,so she did the only thing she could do to save her and took her and ran into the woods, its was nearly midnight so there was hardly any light except for the frequent gunfire and the fire being set to the village. Then there were voices and running footsteps coming after them, and shouts of " There she is" or " Don't let them escape". as they were nearing the duo, Luffy's mother knew they wouldn't have much time, so she looked around and found a hollow tree, stopped and put Luffy inside.

" Why did we stop Mommy?" A confused Luffy asked.

" Mommy's going to go and talk to the nice men following us," she replied, hoping she wouldn't press matters more for they had very little time as it is.

"Then I want to go with you Mommy," Luffy said trying to crawl out from under the tree into her mothers arms.

" No, you can't Luffy," she said hugging her precious daughter, knowing quite well she would never see her again. " You have to stay here and keep quiet, its like a game."

" Like Hide-and- go-seek," Luffy asked.

" Yes, just like Hide-and-go-seek," her mother said, tears streaming down her face. The marines were getting closer.

" I love you so much Luffy," she said squeezing her tighter.

" I love you too Mommy." Then, her mother let go and put her back in the tree.

" Luffy, no matter what happens, you can't come out from under this tree." Luffy nodded in understanding.

" Goodbye." That was all she said before running out into the woods waving her arms in the air to ward of the marines from Luffy yelling " I'm over here! Come and get me!" Then there were two gunshots and it was over. Luffy's mother was dead and Luffy knew it. Luffy then started to cry, and after what seemed like an eternity, Luffy cried herself to sleep.

Around six in the morning, a woman with dark green hair with a bandanna came to a stop at the hollow tree to find a sleeping, tear stained Luffy. The woman ran to her and scooped her up into her arms which startled a sleeping Luffy.

" Mommy! Please don't go Mommy," screamed a startled Luffy who was thrashing her arms and legs in protest.

" What's your name?" asked the calm woman still holding Luffy.

" Its Luffy," she said relaxing a bit.

" Hello Luffy, my name is Makino. What happened to you," asked the woman now known as Makino. Luffy then began to cry.

"Mommy got hurt by a bunch of white men." Makino gasped at this.

' Is this girl the only survivor of the marine attack from the next village over? I thought they left no survivors,' Makino thought. " Do you have a Daddy," asked Makino doubtingly.

" Daddy went out to sea," said Luffy, now crying even more.

' At least she still has a parent, even if he is most likely a pirate,' thought Makino, but was snapped out of her thoughts by a crying Luffy.

" I know I am not your real Mommy, but if you want you can come and live with me. I can take care of you if you want. Luffy perked up at that.

" You mean that?"

" Of course I do," said a smiling Makino.

" Ok," was all Luffy could say. Makino then stood up and helped Luffy up.

" Alright then Luffy, lets go home," Makino said, happy with the decision she had made that will change her life forever. Luffy, would always and forever be Makino's only child.

Three years later...

Luffy was now six, living with Makino who now worked in a bar, where she sat in her special seat, next to her favorite person, red-haired pirate Shanks.

" It didn't hurt one bit," said Luffy who was referencing to her now stitched up cut under her left eye, a little bit of tears forming in her eyes.

" Yeah right," replied Shanks. " And don't you do anything that stupid ever again," he said with concern present in his voice. He then shivered at the thought of what Luffy did, stabbing herself under her left eye just to proof to him that she was strong. He was then snapped out of his thoughts when Makino put a plate of food in front of Luffy.

" Don't worry Makino, I'll pay you back with my treasure," said Luffy proudly.

" What treasure," Teased Shanks.

" The treasure I get when I become a pirate." Shanks laughed.

" Ha, you don't have what it takes to be a pirate. You can't even swim!"

" Then I will just make sure I don't fall off the ship and I will be fine," Luffy proclaimed in protest. " And besides, my punches are as strong as pistols," she said doing the motions with her arms, remembering the training Gramps made her do.

" Pistols? Really," Shanks said in a mocking manner.

" What kind of tone is that!" Shanks and his crew laughed at her comment.

" Come on boss," the sharpshooter Yassop said. " Let her come with us just this once."

" Yeah boss," the pirate Lucky stated then shoved a piece of meat in his mouth. " No harm can come from bringing her along for just one trip." Then a bunch of the other crewmates seconded the idea with a hopeful Luffy bouncing in her seat.

" Well if thats how you feel, one of you will have to give up your place on the ship," replied Shanks. after he made that comment, the pirates went back to drinking and eating.

" You traitors," stated Luffy.

" Hey Luffy, calm down, no matter how strong you are, you are still too young. Wait at least ten years and I'll reconsider taking you to be on my ship." Luffy pouted. ' She's so cute when she's upset,' Shanks thought then had an idea.

" Here kid, have some juice." Luffy's face lite up. " Wow thanks Shanks!" Then Luffy accepted the drink and drunk it happily. Then Shanks and his crew burst out laughing.

" Ha! I never heard of a pirate who drinks juice," said Shanks slamming his fist on the counter laughing his ass off.

" Hey! That was a dirty trick!" But that didn't stop the pirates from laughing. Then Luffy got off her her seat and went to go pout somewhere else when Ben, Shank's first mate called her over.

" Luffy, you should try to understand how our Captain feels," said Ben leaning down to the little girls height while smoking a cigar.

" Understand how Shanks feels," questioned Luffy, clearly not getting it.

" Yes," replied Ben. " He is our leader after all, he knows the life of a pirate is fun and all, but he also knows the dangers of being a pirate due to the fact he became one at such a young age, so he doesn't tease your ambitions on purpose." Luffy gave it some thought.

" Nah, Shanks just takes me as an idiot." They both turned to look at the red-haired captain.

" Can't swim," teased Shanks, sticking his tongue at her . Luffy frowned.

" See," Luffy said matter-factally. Ben Sweatdropped. Then Makino came by while cleaning a glass with a rag.

" You seem to be happy, Captain," Makino said happily.

" Teasing her is my joy," replied Shanks. Luffy frowned.

" Luffy, would you like something to eat," asked a giggling Makino. Luffy's face lite up.

" Yeah! Thanks Makino, I will pay you back with my treasure."

" What treasure?" And right before they were about to start that whole argument again, a group of bandits came bursting in, breaking the swinging doors and Shanks' crew went silent.

"So, this is what people pass as pirates these days, looks pretty sad to me," said what looks to be the leader of the group, smashing the door with his foot and shoving passed Shanks to the counter.

" Hello gentlemen, is there anything I can do for you," asked Makino in her usually calm voice. The leader smirked.

" We're mountain bandits, but we don't want to cause any trouble, we just want ten barrels of sake and we will be out of here."

" I'm sorry gentlemen, but I am completely out of stock right now.

" Well, what are these pirates drinking, is it water I see in their glasses?"

" They actually drank all of the sake I had left," replied Makino. Shanks stood up.

" Sorry fella's, it seem me and my crew has drunk this place dry," Shanks then picked up a unopened bottle of sake. " But you can have this if you want, it's the last one and we haven't opened it yet," Shanks offered kindly. The leader took the bottle and smashed it on top of Shank's head. Shanks fell to the ground.

" I'm wanted, I have an 8 million beri bounty on my head, one bottle of sake isn't enough for a nightcap,"said the bandit, waiting for Shanks to start a fight. Shanks looked down at the ground.

" Great, now the floors all wet," Shanks then got on the ground to pick up the mess,"You got a rag so I can clean this up Makino?"

" Here, I'll take care of it," replied Makino coming from behind the counter, But before she could, the leader drew his sword and smashed all of the stuff across the counter.

" You like to clean up messes do ya, then this mess will be most satisfying. Come on boys, a place with no sake is no place for me, later pansies. Then they were was an awkward silence until Makino went down to help Shanks.

" Are you alright Captain, are you hurt?"

" Not a trouble in the world Makino," said Shanks raising his arm and took of his hat then gave a small chuckle, and that was like a cue for the whole crew to burst out laughing.

" That fellow really got you good boss," said a hysteric Yassop as he continued laughing his ass off.

" Talk about a loser," said Lucky Roo then also continued laughing. Shanks also joined in on the laughing until one angry Luffy interrupted.

" Why are you all laughing!" The whole crew stopped and looked up at Luffy standing on her chair screaming at them. "What is so funny! You should have fought back Shanks! If you just laugh it off you're not a man or a pirate!" Shanks then looked at her sincerely.

" Look Luffy, I know how you feel, but the guy just spilled some booze on me, it's nothing to get worked up for," said Shanks trying to calm the hot-headed six year old down.

" Whatever," said an upset Luffy looking away from Shanks when she notices an odd looking fruit in a chest by the counter. She took it and starting eating it. Shanks and Makino were giggling about what just happened then saw Luffy eating something. Shanks stood up.

" Heh, you shouldn't eat out of frustration Luffy."

" Shut up," replied Luffy still devouring the fruit. Shanks the gasped as he just realized what she was eating.

" Wait, what are you eating?" Luffy stopped eating to turn and see a very pissed off Shanks.

" Uhh," was her only reply.

" Don't tell me you at the fruit that was in that box, tell me you didn't!" Again, "Uhh" was her only reply. Shanks then grabbed her by the legs and started shaking her upside down.

" Spit it out, right now, every single bit of it!"

" Stop! Why are you shaking me!?" But before anyone could reply, Luffy began to stretch and her face hit the floor. Everyone went silent.

" What's happening to me," asked a very confused Luffy. Shanks then lifted her up to meet his face.

" Luffy you just ate the Gum-Gum fruit, part of the group known as the devil fruits and eating any of them takes away your ability to swim forever, but the one you ate also turns your body into rubber!"

" What! No way!"

" You dumbass!"

Author's Note: Hello readers, this story was writing by the one and only Viviny. This storyline aka version of One Piece was written by me alone and not by me and my sister Vandit. Any way, what I am doing for this I'm going through Luffy's past then skip to the grandline with snippets of how she met Zoro, Nami, Usopp, and Sanji ( In a awesome way you all will have to wait and see). We will also be having an alive Sabo with an awesome devil fruit power, to be seen later. Finally, this will most definitely be a ZoLu pairing, I am absolutely in love with this couple so if you like, read and review.
