In Ace meets Shanks fanfiction, how would their relationship develop?

Maybe Ace is on a mission for the Whitebeard Pirates and Shanks is just sailing around. They meet at a port town. Shanks recognizes Ace's potential and tries to convince him to join his crew for a short - time adventure. Ace is hesitant at first but is intrigued by Shanks' laid - back yet powerful leadership style. They end up going on a treasure hunt together, with lots of banter and friendly competitions as they search for the hidden loot.

They could start with a big hug. Then Shanks might tease Luffy about his still - crazy appetite. Luffy, in turn, could show off his new crew members to Shanks.

Their relationship could start off a bit awkwardly. Hinata would be very shy and respectful towards Kushina as she is Naruto's mother. Kushina, on the other hand, might be a bit taken aback by Hinata's quiet nature at first. But as they spend more time together, they could grow to understand and respect each other. For instance, Hinata could show Kushina her determination to protect Naruto, which would earn Kushina's respect.

At first, Ash might be in awe of Mew. He has heard so much about this rare and powerful Pokémon. Mew, on the other hand, would be curious about Ash's determination and his bond with his Pokémon. As they spend time together, Ash would start to learn from Mew's unique abilities and wisdom. Mew might show Ash how to communicate better with his Pokémon on a deeper level. Their relationship could develop into a sort of mentorship, with Mew guiding Ash in his Pokémon training journey.

Their relationship often develops through shared experiences. For example, they might go on a quest together. During the quest, they face challenges and have to rely on each other. This builds trust between them. Natsu might start to see Lisanna in a new light, not just as an old friend but as someone he could have deeper feelings for. Lisanna, on the other hand, might become more confident around Natsu and show her true self more often.

The relationship could start with curiosity. Naruto would be curious about Kite's skills and Kite about Naruto's strange ninja powers. Then they could become allies, fighting side by side.

In the original story, Luffy has a sort of idol - worship relationship with Shanks. But in a fanfiction with Female Luffy, there could be a more emotional and complex relationship. Maybe Female Luffy has a crush on Shanks when she's younger, which adds a different layer to their interactions. She might be more eager to prove herself to him not just as a great pirate but also as someone worthy of his attention.

A powerful new pirate group could be the main antagonist. They might be after the same treasure or territory as Luffy and Shanks. They could have some unique and dangerous abilities, like the ability to control sea monsters. Their leader could be a former crewmate of a well - known and feared pirate, who has his own vendetta against both Luffy and Shanks for some past reasons.

One possible plot could be that Luffy, while on a new adventure in a mysterious island, accidentally discovers a hidden treasure map that leads to a place Shanks has been looking for. Luffy decides to find Shanks and share the map. When they meet, they team up to face the various pirates and obstacles in their way to reach the treasure. Along the way, Shanks teaches Luffy some new combat skills and they strengthen their bond as friends and pirates.

In this fanfiction, perhaps Luffy has become much stronger. He might show Shanks his new skills and powers. They could also talk about their adventures since they last met, like Luffy sharing his experiences on different islands.
