Chapter 1
"Oi, Sanji is it ready yet" Luffy asked his favorite crewmember, at the time.
"Calm down Luffy, it take a while to cook seaking meat this good" Sanji said.
"So Nami, what is the island we are coming up at?" Kai asked.
Kai was the newest Strawhat. After the shichibukai Kuma sent each of the 9 pirates flying to random islands, She helped Sanji, who just happend to get sent flying into a marine base. Kai was in the prison there and Sanji landed right into her cell. She helped him out and they escaped. Kai said she would be glad to come with Sanji and join the crew since she had nothing else to do. She's an excellent fighter. She ate the Wood Wood Logia devil fruit. It allows her to turn into a wood person, it also allows her to control trees.
~Flashback~
"Damn it, I'm starving and thirsty, I can’t get down, how long has it been, 3, 4 days? I just want to go kick that bear's ass!" Sanji said to himself as he flew threw the sky at a speed that the average human couldn’t see.
"Wait, is that, a marine base!" Sanji said astonished. He soon started to realize that he wasn’t just gonna fly over it, he was gonna land on it.
Before Sanji knew it, he was lying in a cell of a marine base. "Fuck, hey, that, that didn’t hurt at all. What the hell's happening?" Sanji asked.
"Hey, are you alright Sir?" A girl, about 18 years old asked. She had long brown hair and blue eyes. She was wearing a black and white prison uniform, and no shoes.
"Oh, it seam’s fate has brought me right into the arms of this beautiful young woman, I'm sorry to cause suck a mess, I'm Sanji, your true love, and what is this angels name?" Sanji said giving her a rose.
"Uhh, I'm Kai, nice to meet you" Kai said backing up a little.
"So, is this really a marine base" Sanji asked. That’s when some marine soldiers came to see what the huge explosion was.
"Yep, Hey, I cant use my ability's because of this mean old seastone cell, think you could do me a favor and help me out Sanji-san" Kai asked, just like Nami would.
"Of course Kai-chan" Sanji said. He jumped out of the hole in the roof of the prison and landed on the roof of the hall next to it. Sanji delivered a kick straight down and fell in.
"Hey, that’s Black Leg Sanji, he's wanted for 77,000,000 Belli" one of the marines said. "Get him" another one, said.
"Your loss" Sanji said as he jumped on the heads of one of them. "Party Table Kick Course" Sanji said as he span on the marines head kicking all the others unconscious. He got of that one marine’s head and then kicked him in the stomach as he fell. "Here I think this is the key for your cell" Sanji said taking a key from one marine and unlocking the cage. Kai ran out and hugged Sanji, making his eye a heart again.
"Thank you Sanji-san. Look, I've got no were to go, that marine said your a wanted pirate, I'm wanted as well so, why don’t I join your crew" Kai said.
"YES! YES!, IT'S A DREAM COME TRUE!" Sanji said as they left the marine base and followed Sanji's piece of Rayleighs Biblecard.
"So, You said you ate a Devil Fruit, which one?" Sanji asked.
"I ate the Wood Wood fruit. It's a Logia Devil fruit that allows me to turn into wood, and control the wood around me. Watch" Kai said as she transformed into a tree, then on the ground around them more tree's grew.
"Wow, impressive" Sanji said. "So, how did you get your bounty?" Sanji asked.
"Well, My father is a pirate wanted for 20,000,000 Belli in the west blue, here. He took me and my mom with him. We raided a ship a couple of years back and found the devil fruit, I thought it was a normal Orange and ate it," Kai said.
"After that I mastered my ability's. I learned how to for my wood into different shapes, like hammers, blades, Axes, anything. My only weakness besides the sea is that if I become to dehydrated, I cant transform good because the wood needs water" Kai said.
"I helped my father fight plenty of times. Eventually, they gave me a 40,000,000 belli bounty because I killed a marine Captain" Kai said.
Eventually, Sanji and Kai made there way back to the Saboady Archipelago on the grandline. They met the others and Luffy was glad to have Kai aboard. Nami was glad to have another girl on the crew, as was Robin.
"Well, the next island unfortunately is another one of those long log pose islands, it can take up to 9 months for this one to set" Nami said sighing. They have been getting close to the end of the new world. They found out why the Yonkou have been at the same places for months, almost all the last islands take months to reset. The Strawhats last island took a year.
"Okay Guys come get it while its hot" Sanji said as he finished cooking the seaking that they killed a day ago.
"~Yawwwwwn~" Zoro yawned as he awoke. "I hope this is better then your last meal" Zoro said. "Hmph" Sanji said, simply ignoring Zoro's comment.
Don’t listen to him Sanji-kun, I love your meals" Nami said. Sanji's eye turned into a heart, as did his eyebrow and the smoke coming from his cigarette. "Thanks Nami-san" Sanji said in "love cook mode". The truth was that, as Kai puts it, "Nami's falling for him. face it, over time she's grown to him. At first he was just drooling over her like me and Robin, but now I think the two are truly falling in love" Kai said to Luffy
boom
The loud sound of an explosion can be heard.
"Someone fired a cannon" Usopp said.
Brook looked outside of the kitchen and saw 5 marine ships coming.
"It's the Marines!" Brook shouted back to his crew.
"Damn it, there dead set on catching us ever since we beat Kaidou" Franky said.
"Usopp, get the Gaon cannon ready, that can take care of at least 3 of those ships. The rest I'll take care of" Luffy said.
"Yes sir" Usopp said. Usopp prepared the cannon as Sunny's mouth opened and the Gaon cannon came out. The 5 cola barrels pumped into Sunny as the cannon fired and 4 of the ships were destroyed, and the other one was sent to the right from the waves the explosion caused.
"Wow it took out 4 of them" Usopp said. Luffy sent his arms to the Sunny's railing as he jumped to the back of it.
Gomu Gomu no-Rocket!" Luffy said as he launched himself toward the remaining ship.
"You marines are really pissing me off lately" Luffy said.
"So, we meet again Strawhat" a familiar voice said. Luffy looked behind him to find a tall man sleeping on a bed on the deck of the ship.
"Aokiji?" Luffy said.
"It's not nice to wake someone. I see you journey is going good" Aokiji said.
"Yea, It's a blast, so what exactly are you doing" Luffy asked.
"I'm here to tell you about something classified, I'm not here on duty, I used those other ships as a cover and to draw you over. There is no one else on this ship. Luffy, the great pirate era is coming to it's climax. There are 6 people who will compete for One Piece. The remaining Yonkou, Shanks and Whitebeard, Eustass Kid, Trafalgar Law, and Marshall D. Teach, Blackbeard"
"Blackbeard wanted the position of Shichibukai so the marines wouldn’t hunt him. That way, he will be strong and no one will suspect when he goes after the One Piece"
"So?" Luffy said.
"So, Ever since Ace was sent to Impel down it's marked the end of this era. Ace is dying, before we could execute him Whitebeard and Shanks teamed up and saved him. They took him back but Kizaru was able to take him back. His new execution date is in a month, but the truth is, that is a false date, he is going to be executed this week, the point of the fake date is so we can capture Whitebeard and Shanks. If that happens then the pirate era is officially dead, no pirate will be able to sail these great sea's"
"Without them the World Government will focus all of it's power on you, Kid, and Law. After your all taken down the government will head for the One Piece." Aokiji said.
"What does the government want with the One Piece?" Luffy asked.
"They don’t know what it is, they though, they assume it is treasure, like gold and billions of billions of Belli, but I know the true treasure in the world isn’t money. Luffy it's up to you and your crew to stop the government. Blackbeard cant become the Pirate King, you have to" Aokiji said.
"why are you telling me this" Luffy asked.
"Because, I don’t believe in "absolute justice" Like Lucci and my fellow admirals do. If Teach gets the One Piece it means that the world ends, the world will turn to hell. The same will happen if the Marines and Government get to it. You have to do it. The truth is your father has double agents placed in the marines, I am one of them. So is Kuma, he sent you flying for a reason, to make you stronger, you also did meet a new friend. Dragon is helping shape the future of the world, and it involves you becoming the king. I will save Ace,and make sure he lives, I will keep Shanks and whitebeard away"
"Luffy, take this Log Pose, it is two islands ahead of yours, follow it, it will give you a lead, you will be caught up with Kid and Law" Aokiji said giving the pose to Luffy.
"Thanks" Luffy said to the marine as he went back to Thousand Sunny.
"Dragon, Dadan, You have one hell of a son," Aokiji said to himself.
