Beginning Arc
Chapter 1 – Brand New World
The sky was blurry as the young boy opened his eyes, he couldn’t remember anything that had happened to him or where he was. He groaned and saw the clear blue sky as he opened his eyes fully. “where am I?” he muttered. He sat up and saw a straw hat to his side, he grinned and placed the beaten hat on his head, as he did his memories came racing back to him. “That’s right! Damn it I’ve got to find my friends!”
Luffy spun around to view his surrounding, there was nothing but trees, he was standing in a small clearing which seamed to sparkle in the sun, the leaves blew gently in the breeze.
“I’m gonna beat them next time.’ Smiled Luffy as he picked any random direction and headed into the forest “But first I need food.”
Luffy pushed his way through the undergrowth, using his nose to guide him for any trace of food, he tripped and fell down a large hill, he then came crashing to a staop against a large boulder, or at least what he thought was a large boulder, but whatever it was started moving.
Luffy fell of the moving boulder and landed on his head, he looked up and saw that what he had assumed to be a boulder was a giant creature, it had dark green skin, thick legs like tree trunks, pure muscular arms, its body was plastered with little grey lumps that looked like stone, the beast had dark greasy hair and pitch black eyes, it had long razor sharp finger nails and it smelled like it hadn’t bathed in its life.
“Oh crap” laughed Luffy “Sorry about that.”
The creature roared in fury and swung its huge arm at Luffy who leaped over it and glared at the creature “So you wanna fight?”
The creature roared again and clasped his hands, he brought them crashing downwards towards Luffy who stepped to the side, but the creature’s blow shattered the ground on impact and Luffy stumbled as cracks tore across the ground, the creature swung its arm and slammed Luffy in the chest, he soared through the trees until he ventually smashed into one and slammed into the ground.
“That huuuuuuuuuurt!’ wailed Luffy as he slowly rose to his feet.
The giant creature leaped into the air towards Luffy who was shocked at its mobility, he leaped into the trees as the creature came crashing to the earth again tearing inro the ground.
“Wow that thing’s strong.” Grinned Luffy “But I’m gonna win!”
Luffy leaped from the trees and landed on the creatures back, he pulled back his arm and called “Gomu Gomu No” he snaped his arm forward driving it into the creature back “BULLET!!”
The creature howled in pain and began to thrash, it slammed its back into a tree, crushing Luffy in the process.
Luffy stretched and grabbed on to a tree, he began to run backwards leaving his arm trailing, the creature gave cahse.
Luffy laughed as he stopped and leaped of the ground “Gomu Gomu No Rocket!” he cried as he soared back towards the beast and slammed head first into its chest, The monsters eyes snapped open in pain as it felt its ribs snap beaneath Luffy’s blow, it roared in pain as it coughed green blood.
“Take that!” laughed Luffy as he landed on his feet a few feet back.
“KILL YOU!!” roared the monster as he thrashed towards Luffy
“You can talk!?” cried an amzed luffy who was too stunned to dodge, he was captured in a few monsterous blows from its swinging arms and sent crashing into some nearby bushes, the sunlight from above shoen down into his eyes “OWWW!” he squealed
The beast laughed as it approached Luffy and towered above him “Kill you.” It breathed.
A nearby village shook as the ground trembled, this village was made of a tavern, a large house with mayor posted on the front, a few houses and a small market place, it looked poor and some farming fields lay behind it.
“Oh no!’ cried the villager “The Jikininki is rampaging again.
“What if it destroys the village” cried a young woman.
“Damn that beast.” Said an old man “If only we had the power to stop it.”
“I’m gonna investigate.’ Said a young man with shaggy red hair, he ran out of the village and towards the forest.
Some villagers feeling braver followed him.
“What if we die?” cried the old man as he hurried to keep after the red haired man
“Then go back old man.” He answered “We live in fear of that thing, perhaps its rampage can reveal a weakness, it may be hurt from something that we can exploit.”
“Well aint you smart, Red.” Smiled the old man
a young woman and two more men followed after them.
Luffy stretched out his legs, wrapped them around the Jikininki and spun around to its back, he grabbed its shoulders, leaped into the air and called “SPEAR!”
Luffy’s clasped feet drove into the back of the creatures neck, it howled and fell face first into the ground, again causing the ground to tremble.
The village people then arrived and saw the creature fall, they stared in disbelief as the boy fighting it grabbed its legs and amazing began to swing it.
Luffy struggled with the monsters weight and threw it as far as he could, it slammed into a tree causing it to collapse, its roots tore out of the ground and one scratched the creatures back causing green blood to spray across the ground.
“How is that boy fighting it?” asked the old man in disbelief
“I’ve no idea.” Answered Red
Luffy huffed as he saw the creature rise once more “damn it.” He breathed
“The boy can’t win.” Groaned the old man “Run boy, or it’ll kill you.”
Luffy looked towards the old man and laughed “Hey old timer.” He waved.
The Jikininki stomped towards Luffy, Luffy grinned and began to pump his fists back and forwards, his fists became blurrs and rained down apon the monster. “Gomu Gomu No Gattling Gun!”
The fist pummeled every area of the creatures massive body and forced it back into a tree where the blows gained a graeter effect, the bark began to crack before eventually he was smashed right through it, the creature flew backwards and slammed into the ground.
“No way.” Cried the old man “Impossible!”
Red stared in awe at this boy who had just defeated the creature that he himself had once fought and was almost left crippled, it had taken him five years to recover from that battle.
“He won.” Laughed the old man as tears of joy ran down his face.
“See I won.” Laughed Luffy “I told you I would.”
“Boy you have done as a great favor, you have killed the beast that has destroyed our village so many times, thank you.” Smiled the old man as he grabbed and shook Luffy’s hand.
“I did?” smiled a confused Luffy “Any food?”
“Of course.” Answered the old man “I’m Bira, I own the local tavern, I shall treat you to the finest meal I can and a nice warm bed for tonight.”
Luffy left with villagers.
