[Chapter Size: 1249 Words]

Third Person POV

Orange Town, East Blue.

...

...

Buggy crashed directly into one of the houses, but his impact force was just enough to crack the structure.

Buggy's headless body fell to the ground, and his head, still in the air, displayed all the agony of the impact.

"Damn..." was the only muttered word he managed to utter through the pain, unable to breathe as he felt his bones breaking upon impact.

"Come on, I expected more from you..." Luffy taunted, while Buggy still remained in the air with blank eyes.

Meanwhile, Cabaji and Mohji, with their lion, approached Yamato, unaware of how the battle between Buggy and Luffy was going.

"Huh? So, you guys are my opponents?" Yamato asked calmly.

Neither of the two pirates responded as they advanced. Cabaji was rapidly approaching her on a unicycle, wielding a katana, while Mohji was even faster, riding Richie.

Yamato felt no threat from them. She simply leaned to the side, waiting for the lion to jump at her.

*ROOOOOAAAAAR*

The lion leaped with murderous intent towards Yamato.

Using her kanabo, she struck the lion while it was suspended in the air. Spectators could hear bones breaking, and the lion made a whimpering sound, never having a chance.

*MIAAAAAAUUU*

"AHHHHHHHH!"

The lion flew like a bullet with Mohji still mounted on top, heading directly for one of the other houses in the town.

*BOOOM*

The explosion left all the pirates dressed as clowns wide-eyed, watching one of their main members, along with that lion-monster, easily defeated by this strange girl with red and yellow horns.

Cabaji stopped his advance at that moment, sweating profusely as he was too nervous to continue after witnessing that scene. He began to pedal backward, torn by indecision about whether he could face this incredibly powerful girl.

"Where do you think you're going?" He heard a voice behind him. She had been right in front of him just a moment ago, and he hadn't even seen her move, all while wearing an innocent smile.

"Cabaji-San!" The pirates were horrified to see yet another one of their strongest members cornered.

*BOOOM*

Another house was destroyed as Yamato sent him flying alongside his partner.

"How boring, they're all so weak!" Yamato muttered, making everyone who heard it wonder where this monstrous girl had come from.

Seeing that the fight was over and that the other pirates didn't seem willing to continue, Yamato turned her body toward where Luffy was battling Buggy.

By this time, the sounds of the ship's cannons had already ceased. Most likely, their crew had reached the island and was closing in on this camp.

"And..." Buggy was still making groaning sounds, his head reattaching to his broken body in the wreckage. Luffy let him do that calmly.

He quickly shook himself, spat out some saliva, and looked indignantly at the man in the hat.

"YOU BASTARD, THAT WAS A LOW BLOW!" Buggy shouted with a thin voice.

"They say clowns are funny, and I must admit, you do have a strong body to remain conscious after that attack," Luffy said with a calm smile, trying to provoke the man in front of him.

"YAMATO, CAN YOU HANDLE THE REST OF THE CREW?" Luffy yelled to Yamato.

"WHILE I DEAL WITH THIS BIG-NOSED, UGLY, AND UNSTYLISH CLOWN." Luffy smiled at Buggy, releasing smoke as he said all that once again.

"YOU BASTARD, I'LL KILL YOU!!!!" Buggy, if he had any fear due to the man's strength in front of him, his anger had blinded him to it. His hatred fueled his actions as he charged at the man, his waist separating into halves.

With his leg split, it began spinning toward Luffy, just like in the anime, with a blade attached to the front of his boot.

"BARA BARA...SENBEI!"

Luffy, seeing it coming his way, simply dodged it. Buggy's attacks kept coming, and Luffy easily evaded those spinning legs.

"Huh?" Luffy noticed knives flying his way.

He raised his hand, and a firebolt shot towards the knives. The metal disintegrated upon contact with the scorching substance.

"Purple flames? What kind of fruit is this?" Buggy couldn't help but exclaim.

But the clown wasn't intimidated by this power, as he had a sadistic grin on his face, and his arm had no hand on it.

Luffy had already noticed that the missing hand was still on his back, holding a knife, but he patiently waited for Buggy to make his move.

"DIE!" Buggy screamed as his hand flew toward Luffy.

Buggy, seeing that Luffy was not dodging, smiled sadistically.

However, his grin faded as his daggers struck the man's skin, failing to penetrate despite passing through his pirate mantle.

"..."

"..."

"Is that all you've got?" Luffy's voice broke the silence as he asked calmly.

"EHHH???!! Are you a monster?!" Buggy shouted in fear this time.

"A man like you shouldn't be surprised, considering everything you witnessed before starting your own crew, clown," Luffy taunted, noting Buggy's surprise.

"Don't tell me you know..." Buggy was now nervous, as his past was a delicate matter for him.

"Buggy, you're a disappointment. Attacking and robbing civilians in the weakest sea? And to think you were once aboard that ship..." Luffy spoke in a serious tone.

"Huh? WHO ARE YOU!? HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?" Buggy seemed even more nervous now.

"I've already told you who I am. My name is Monkey D. Luffy! The man who will conquer the seas! Do you see this hat?" Luffy took it from his back.

"I made a promise to Shanks, and I intend to keep it!" This statement made Buggy widen his eyes considerably.

"That's the same hat Shanks used! No wonder it looked so familiar!" He exclaimed with his voice in a high-pitched tone.

"While Shanks is an Emperor in the New World, you're here, abusing civilians..." Luffy was genuinely disappointed in Buggy. The clown had become just another pirate, caught in the cycle.

Without saying more, Luffy grabbed Buggy's hand that held the knife, which was still suspended on his back, and slapped it.

"OUCH! That hurts!" Buggy couldn't help but cry out.

Shaking his head in disappointment, Luffy advanced toward Buggy, who didn't even have time to react before taking a punch to the face, immediately knocking him out.

All the pirates present were left stunned as their captain was sent flying into a city building once again.

*BOOOM*

"WHAT?! CAPTAIN BUGGY WAS DEFEATED!" The chorus of voices erupted.

"Yamato, finish off the rest." Luffy ordered Yamato, who was still taking down the fleeing pirates with ease, moving faster.

Yamato, now using all her speed, disappeared from the area and began moving among the remaining

, unconscious pirates, swiftly knocking them out.

In a short time, the whole place was filled with pirates on the ground, unconscious and groaning in pain.

Luffy, satisfied with that, turned his gaze to the cage where the girl named Nami was. The girl had a bewildered look, not fully comprehending what was happening.

"Yo." Luffy announced his presence as he walked over to her, pulling her out of her dazed state.

Nami, still extremely surprised, looked at the tall man in front of her without knowing what to say. She had been expecting her death just moments ago, but now she was alive, facing these strange people who had appeared out of nowhere and defeated the pirates with such ease.

"Hi... Hello?" She stammered in front of this relentless man.

Chapter 19: Chapter 18 - Orange Town 3.

[Chapter Size: 1285 Words]

Third Person POV

Orange Town, East Blue.

...

...

"What's your name?" This was the first thing Luffy asked as he greeted the girl in front of the cell.

"Na-Nami," she replied with a hint of nervousness.

"Well, Nami, you're free now," Luffy said as he unlocked her cell and opened the door.

"Hey, why is everyone already defeated?" A frustrated Zoro's voice echoed as he rushed in, ready for a fight, scanning for any standing enemies.

"Hahaha, sorry, it seems we were faster," Luffy said, freeing the girl with an embarrassed smile.

Seconds later, the place was filled with the entire crew, appearing one after another.

"It looks like you took care of everyone without any problems," Kuina grumbled, observing about 30 unconscious bodies on the ground and some damaged buildings.

"So strong...? Luffy-Sama and Yamato-Sama took care of all the bad guys?" Shirahoshi asked in amazement. She hadn't witnessed their battle.

"A mermaid?" Nami noticed Shirahoshi, who had flown in with the group.

She recognized her as a mermaid because Shirahoshi's tail was partially visible beneath her dress at the moment. Nami studied the princess for a moment before she noticed the other peculiar members of the group, such as Bepo, the bear dressed in beach attire, and Megalo, the shark that floated in mid-air, encased in a bubble of air, seemingly breathing oxygen just like any land-dwelling animal. Nami's full attention remained on the timid girl with a tail, as her previous experiences with fish-men had not been positive, and she had heard the stories about the mermaids that Arlong and others had told.

Seeing a hint of anger in Nami's eyes as she glanced at Shirahoshi, Luffy decided to speak up.

"Yes, she's one of our crew members. We are the Straw Hat Pirates," Luffy confidently declared with a smile, expressing his pride.

Nami, now outside the cell, couldn't help but give the peculiar group an odd look before Luffy's words sank in. She realized that, aside from the mermaid, there was a bear walking like a human and a shark floating in the air in a bubble of air. The shark seemed to be breathing oxygen just like a land-dwelling creature. When Luffy's declaration about being pirates finally registered, Nami's gaze turned icy, but the earlier confusion had left her too disoriented to process it properly.

"Wait, where do you think you're going?" Luffy asked as he suddenly interjected with an amused smile, sensing Nami's desire to distance herself from the group.

Nami stopped for a moment, expecting the pirates, including Luffy, to do something to her. With a mischievous smile, Luffy continued, while the others observed the interaction, curious about their captain's intentions.

"Don't worry; you can go, but you have to go in that direction. Everything related to the pirates is now ours," Luffy declared, well aware that Nami had been heading toward the pirate ship to steal their treasures.

"But the pirates have my things!" Nami protested, raising her voice in alarm and dissatisfaction.

"As I said, the pirates' belongings are now ours. You're free to leave, and we'll take their things as our spoils of victory. That's how pirates operate," Luffy stated matter-of-factly.

He didn't seem to care much about what Nami thought. He was convinced that, no matter how noble her cause might be in saving her village and its inhabitants, she would betray him in the end. Luffy thought the original Luffy had been too soft on her.

Kuina and Lami raised their eyebrows at this, as they had heard Luffy mention earlier that Nami would be a member of their crew. However, before they could raise the issue, Nami spoke up.

"Wait! You are pirates, right?" Nami suddenly found herself with only one option.

Luffy looked at her indifferently, but there was a hidden gleam of amusement in his eyes.

"Yes, I just said that," Luffy said plainly.

"Why don't you let me join your crew? I'm a great navigator!" Nami announced.

This piqued everyone's interest.

Some could see that Nami was more interested in the treasures, but they kept quiet, waiting for Luffy's response.

"A navigator," Luffy mused, rubbing his chin.

"I don't know... I think we actually need a housekeeper... If there were one around, maybe I'd take them under my flag and onto my ship, where we could conquer a lot of gold and money," Luffy muttered aloud.

'We clearly need a navigator!' the entire crew thought simultaneously but refrained from speaking out, hoping to see what Luffy had in mind.

"A housekeeper!?" Nami's face contorted with anger.

"Anyway, everyone, let's gather all their treasures," Luffy ordered as he redirected his attention to his crew, seemingly dismissing N

ami.

"Lami and Bepo, collect all the treasure from the ship. I heard they have a map of the Grand Line," Luffy instructed, and they headed to Buggy's ship, which was parked at the port and hadn't been damaged by cannon fire.

"I'm a great housekeeper!" Nami quickly shouted when she heard this, rushing toward Luffy.

"Great, we have a new crew member!" Luffy announced, his voice dripping with irony. But nobody said anything, patiently waiting for their captain to reveal his plan for the girl who obviously had her eye on their treasure.

"Show more enthusiasm!" Nami scolded him, noting the sarcasm in his voice.

"We have a housekeeper!" Bepo was the only one who spoke, earning an angry glare from Nami.

"Sorry!" the bear quickly replied, cowering under her disapproving gaze.

"Why are you apologizing so easily!?" Nami was bewildered, shouting as she wondered why this talking bear was so quick to apologize just from her glare.

Kuina sighed, wondering whether Nami was really seeing anyone as normal in this group. Luffy had now "recruited" this woman as a housekeeper, but it was clear he was teasing her while she clearly had her sights set on stealing their treasure. Nami couldn't decide who was worse among them.

Luffy received no system notification, realizing that Nami hadn't genuinely joined the crew but had merely spoken in the heat of the moment.

'That's good. It means that everyone who has joined the crew has genuinely put their faith in our flag... Will you eventually put your faith in me and our crew, Nami?' Luffy pondered internally, even as he looked at the girl in front of him.

"Now, while Lami and Bepo are getting the treasure, Yamato, Zoro, Kuina, and Nami, you should tie up all the pirates, including Buggy. Zoro, he's a Devil Fruit user, so I want you to lock him inside a reinforced barrel, as simply tying him up won't help much," Luffy said.

Luffy could have purchased Sea-Prism Stone handcuffs in the system's store, but they were expensive, and he wanted to save money.

"Yes, Captain," Zoro replied, and everyone nodded in agreement—well, almost everyone.

"Wait! Let me help collect the treasure!" Nami exclaimed, earning dubious looks from all of them who were aware that her real intention was to steal the treasure.

Luffy smiled at the woman, who was nicknamed "Cat Burglar" in the original series.

"No, you're the housekeeper now. I'll leave the treasure to the ship's doctor and the crew's assistant," Luffy said calmly.

"Wait..." Nami was about to speak, but Luffy ignored her and continued.

"Shirahoshi, come with me. Let's visit the town so you can see how humans live on the surface!" Luffy declared as he walked ahead.

"Yes, Luffy-Sama," the excited mermaid followed her captain, eager to visit a human town for the first time. Megalo followed closely behind.
