'(It's dark…, to dark. Where the heck am I right now??)'. Came a thought.
Just like that, the thought began to regain consciousness…, only to find itself in a barrel.
'(Why am I in a barrel?!)'. Thought the woken up person.
Just like that, he busts out of the barrel, and out into the open.
He finds himself in what appears to be a kitchen…, on a ship…, in the open ocean.
…
…
…
'Hold on, why am I on a ship?…, and why am I dressed up like Luffy before the time skip??'. Asked the Luffy look alike.

'I guess I could play the part, i mean, sure, I'll be needing to get stronger to survive, but still'. Said Luffy to himself.
Just like that, Luffy hears explosions near by.
'Sounds like I'm on the ship the Alvida pirates are attacking. Guess I'll need to be careful, I don't have much of Luffy's fighting skills, but I think I can just wing it if I'm careful enough'. Says Luffy.
'I wonder what to get while I'm down here?'. Asked Luffy opening the systems stores.

'I guess I could start with observation'. Said Luffy ordering the book.
Just like that, Luffy loses 10,000 character points.
And just like that, out of nowhere, a book appears in Luffy's hands.
'Oh, I see now, I need to learn to use haki, seems fair I guess'. Said Luffy to himself.
Just like that he hears footsteps up above.
Seems they're here onboard'. Said Luffy.
Just like that Luffy puts his book into his item box he appears to have.
He then heads up to the high deck to try and fight off the Alvida pirates.
——
[up on deck]
As he steps on deck he finds the pirates bringing the treasure to the miss love duck.
'That's it boys, keep em coming'. Said Alvida.
Alvida is a big fat lady with a iron spike club.
Just like that, she spotted Luffy near by.
'Who are you?!'. Asked Alvida.
'Monkey D Luffy, your turn'. Says Luffy trying to act cool.
'I'm "iron club" Alvida, captain of the Alvida pirates'. Said Alvida with a smug smile.
'Pirate huh?, how big's your bounty?'. Asked Luffy already knew it.
'5,000,000 berries'. Said Alvida trying to gloat.
'5 mil??, that low?, surely your joking'. Said Luffy.
Hearing this, the crew stopped what they were doing, and looked at Luffy with shock.
'Did he just called the captain's bounty…, low?'. Asked the whole Alvida crew.
'You dare call me a liar boy?!'. Yelled Alvida in rage.
'I'm just surprised by the weak bounty you got, don't you know, a bounty over 10 mil, is a proof true strength?'. Asked Luffy.
'You seem to know your bounty, you a bounty hunter?'. Asked Alvida.
'Pirate'. Said Luffy.
'Pirate?, how big's your bounty?'. Asked Alvida surprised by this.
'I just started today'. Said Luffy.
'So no bounty, ha!. What a joke, if you've got no bounty, then your no real pirate, hahahahaha!!'. Laughed Alvida.
'Just ya wait lady, I'm going to be a big shot one day'. Said Luffy with pride.
'Hmph, seeing that we're both pirates, and we sure no flag together, if only fair, that makes us rivals'. Said Alvida.
'This year way of saying we're going to fight?'. Asked Luffy.
'Don't worry, it'll be over before you know it'. Said Alvida smirking.
'It will be over alright, when the fat lady sings that is. So how about it, start singing'. Said Luffy grinning.
Hearing this, the crew started backing away from their captain.
'You dare…, CALL ME FAT?!?!'. Roared Alvida enraged by the insult.
Just like that, she swung her iron club up, and lands it onto Luffy's head.
'Sisisi, that's it?, I was so ready for my first pirate fight, what a let down'. Said Luffy smiling hard.
'W…, wh…, what?!'. Screamed Alvida in panic.
Just like that, Luffy moved the club off his head.
'(Time to change it up a bit)'. Thought Luffy.
"Gum gum…" said Luffy as he sends his right fist behind while twisting it.
"Rifle!" Yelled Luffy as he sends his twisting fist at Alvida's gut.
'AAHHHHHH!!'. Screamed Alvida.
Just like that she ended up crashing into the ship's mast.
'Oh my goodness, that was awesome!'. Said a young pink haired boy with glasses.
'Holy shit!'. Said the whole Alvida crew.
Just like that the Alvida pirates in fear for their lives, left by the ship, leaving their beaten captain behind.
'Wow, I never seen anything like that'. Said the pink haired boy.
'Thanks, I'm Luffy, but ya probably knew that'. Said Luffy.
'I'm Koby, hey can you help me out, I was kidnapped and enslaved by the Alvida pirates 2 years ago, I'm in your debt'. Said Koby.
'Sure thing Koby, happy to help, oh, hold on a minute'. Said Luffy before,
"Gum gum, hook!" Said Luffy sending his rubber arm off the ship.
it then grabbed onto something, or someone.
'AHHHHH!!'. Screamed a orange haired girl in a panic.
'Please, mister pirate, don't hurt me'. Begged the girl.
'Ok'. Said Luffy knowing he's not going to do it.
'Wait, what?, really??'. Asked the girl in shock.
'Yep'. Said Luffy with a smile.
'How'd you know where she was??'. Asked Koby confused.
'I saw her leaving the ship'. Said Luffy.
'Hmph, will you must be lucky then. Name's Nami, Luffy right?'. Asked Nami raised her hand to shake.
'Luffy, rookie pirate, future pirate king'. Said Luffy.
'You don't look like a pirate truthfully'. Said Nami.
'I know, but I will be king, watch me go'. Said Luffy smiling.
'So what now?'. Asked Nami.
'How about you join my crew?'. Asked Luffy.
'Why would I join your crew??'. Asked Nami confused.
'I hear your a great thief who steals from bad pirates, like Alvida'. Said Luffy.
'Aren't all pirates bad?'. Asked Nami.
'Nope'. Said Luffy smiling.
'Ah huh…, and will I get in return??'. Asked Nami.
'You can keep stealing from bad pirates, as well bad people'. Said Luffy.
'Good enough for me, just keep in mind, I need to make 100,000,000 berries'. Said Nami.
'Why that much?'. Asked Koby.
'I plan to buy a island'. Said Nami gloating.
'Which one?'. Asked Luffy knowing which island.
'I'm, not, telling'. Said Nami Grinning.
'Have it your way Nami. Koby go tell the passengers that they are safe now, ok?'. asked Luffy.
'Um, sure'. Said Koby hoping not to be yelled at for "helping" the Alvida pirates rob them.
'I'll help you'. Said Nami.
Just like that, the two headed into the ball room.
'Now to buy a ship, hopefully'. Said Luffy to himself.

"Congrats, you defeated Alvida: reward: 500 cp. congrats, you gained Nami as a crew member: reward: 300 cp.

The captain's room has a king's size bed, a dining table, and a large fireplace.
There's food for 10 days.
—
'Yep, looks like it's going to do'. Said Luffy before buying it.
Just like that, out of the mist, the black pearl appears.
Just like that after the two were done, they then spotted the ship.
'What's that??'. Asked Nami in shock.
'That wasn't there before!'. Said Koby in fear.
Just like that, Nami saw the flag on it.
The flag had a smiling skull with a straw hat on it, and cross bones.
'Is that your ship?'. Asked Nami confused.
'Yep, cool huh?'. Asked Luffy smiling.
'How do you have a caravel?'. Asked Nami.
'I just do'. Said Luffy.
Nami was silent hearing that.
'It's called the black pearl'. Said Luffy.
'Your an oddball captain'. Said Nami.
'Sisisi, come on, and bring her with us, we need to collect on her bounty'. Said Luffy.
'How?'. Asked Nami confused.
'We pretend we're bounty hunters, they'll fall for it. Hopefully said Luffy whispered the last part.
'I heard that'. Said Nami.
'Sorry. Let us set sail you two'. Said Luffy excitedly.
'Where to Luffy?'. Asked Nami.
Shells town'. Said Luffy.
'Perfect, think I can join the marines there?'. Asked Koby.
We'll see what we can do'. Said Luffy happily.
Just like that after tying up Alvida, she's put behind bars.
The three set sail, to shells town.
'(Look out Zoro. I'm on my way)'. Thought Luffy.
