Chapter 5 by The-Drunken-Bandit The-Drunken-Bandit

Where do you look?

One Piece

You know, you actually went to this world for a short period of time but eventually left to avoid getting dragged into the politics of this ocean fairing world.

However, during your brief stay in this world, you enjoyed a great deal of adventure and excitement and of course, met some beautiful women along the way. Also, during your stay you picked up several items of varying value. The two crowning objects of your collection, however, was a poneglyph and a devil fruit…

You lean back in your chair as you lose yourself in a feeling of nostalgia as you recall the two items in question. The poneglyph was something you grabbed from right under the Yonko Big Mom’s big old nose when you paid her candy-coated archipelago a visit. This naturally incensed big mom so badly that she actually sent some of her children after you, to which you single-handedly defeated using your Advanced Technology and your magical prowess. After all her children failed in capturing you and bringing you to her, Big Mom decided to do it herself and went into a violent rage that would’ve customarily destroyed most islands in order to catch you. Unfortunately for poor old Yonko, you had an ace up your sleeve in the form of a shrink ray that made the colossal woman’s strength and size completely useless when she was shrunk to the size of an ant. Eventually, the effects of the drink Ray did wear off in time, but your last little spat with Big Mom made the insane old woman have second thoughts anytime she thought about trying to chase you again.

Sigh… An now you’re rambling to yourself again. No matter, anyway on to the second object in your collection that is a large melon sized raspberry that is dotted all over with swirly reds, dashed blues, and crossed whites was the mighty logia type devil fruit known as the atom-atom fruit. You actually found this fruit by complete chance when you went out to forage for some food. When you did find the fruit, you naturally had no idea what type or what power the fruit contained. Which is par for the course when it comes to devil fruit’s as most of them are documented or written down. You eventually found out what the fruit was using some advanced tech to id what mutations it would cause in a person.

Moving onwards, the atom-atom fruit does what the name implies, gives someone complete and total control over the very atoms that exist around them and inside of them. You were highly tempted to eat the devil fruit when you first found out its actual name and powers, but decided against it and have since kept the atom-atom fruit in your pip-watch as an emergency Bork button should the need ever arise.

(Bork: when things get so bad, you break the very words to describe it!)

However, you’re not here to discuss your exploits in the world of one piece; you’re here to find a henchman to aid you in bringing balance to the multiverse. So you reopened your eyes and leaned forward to begin entering commands into your central computer, and in response three possible choices appear onto the TV screens.

1. Perona: The annoying brat of a ghost princess, man, do you have some annoying memories of Perona from before the time skip. All of which have to do with the ghost girl tagging along with you during your series of misadventures in one piece world, wherein she would often use you as a form of shield and then eventually as a weapon, after you defeated big mom, to scare people into following her orders.

Though you will say that it wasn’t all bad having the ghost girl tag along with you as despite her bratty nature and obsession with the gothically cute, it was fun to have someone to tease and pick fun at when you hopped island to island, hell if you didn’t know better you’d say Perona enjoyed your company just as much at times. You say this because when you had to leave this world eventually, Perona actually broke down in tears and actually begged you not to go! A part of you wanted to take the lonely Ghost princess with you, but you decided against it at the time. For you didn’t know how Perona would take the weirdness that was the greatest multiverse.

Though now when you think back on your time with her, you note that she would always get mad at you whenever you went out on a date with a girl. She would always blush and yell at you before running off to god knows where during which you would note the odd things that would happen during your dates while in this world. Most of which you chalked up to bad luck and just the inherent weirdness of the one piece world at work, though you do note Perona would look happy whenever you mentioned a failed date when you came back to the ship…

Ehh… its probably nothing. So, do you want to bring back your favorite tag along back into the fold?

2. Amande Charlotte: Amande, a stone-cold killer to her core and perhaps one of the funniest people to mess with during your time in this world. You say this because Amande was the first of Big Moms daughters to actually begin to chase you across this world in order to kill you. Though to no avail as every time you would outwit and outpace Amande both in tactics and speed, much to her frustration. As after the first defeat Amande came back for a second round a few days later, only to meet the same result. After her second defeat, she came back a third time, and then a fourth time, and on and on this game of road runner and coyote went.

Though despite her attempts to kill or maim you, you often made time after the fights to actually talk with the long neck woman and try to connect to her. Much to her chagrin as she would often just grit her teeth in silence and frustration until one day she lost control and just yelled at you and asked why you kept leaving her and her siblings alive despite the fact they’ve been trying to kill you for the entire duration of your stay in this world. In response, you told her you believed that they could do better than working for their insane and ever gluttonous mother. This naturally pissed Amande right off as, after this, she tried even harder to kill you over, and over again.

However, despite all of this aggression and hatred towards you, Amande over time (and after many failed attempts, mind you) eventually started to respect you as an equal. Overtime and more failed attempts _(Which you note were becoming less about killing you and more about catching you) _Amande even began to enjoy the fun of the chase and the challenge you presented to her. This respect and enjoyment eventually became a form of affection, as many of her siblings who helped Amande chased you noted a glimmer of life and love in Amande’s eyes whenever she saw you.

Hell, eventually when you defeated Big Mom, Amande still chased you! Though it was no longer on the order of big mom or of one her siblings, as Amande eventually declared that when she finally caught you that she would marry you! This announcement eventually led to another series of chase’s were instead of coming at you with a sword Amande would try to take you down with a whole different assortment of outfits and a series of her trying to seduce you! The strangest thing was when you were spotted by Amande on a date she would often say it didn’t matter who you kept on the side, so long as she was your one true love.

You… You had no real response to that declaration and simply ran like hell whenever she would say that, much to her joy…

Anyway… if you bring Amande into the fold, you may have to worry about her regaining her memories, because if she does, then the chase will begin all over again…

3. Nico, Robin: The macabre Archeologist of the straw hat pirates and perhaps one of your closest friends in this wacky ass world of overpowered maniacs. You and Robin met each other during the period when she was separated from the rest of the straw hats by the navy warlord Bartolomeu Kuma and was trapped in a massive prison island. You, of course, freed Robin and asked her to help you navigate this strange and wacky world for your time spent in it. She agreed after she saw Luffy's message about training for the next two years and decided that by taking part in your wacky misadventures that she would eventually become the woman her friends needed her to be when shit hit the fan.

During your travels with Robin, she would often pick the next destination and more often than not, these destinations would be often fraught with trouble! During which Robin kept her cool and calm outlook on life and even had some of her dark humor rubbed off on you. Eventually the two of came across Perona who freaked out at the sight of the devil child, but eventually got along great with the macabre woman as if she was her teasing older sister.

Though your own personal relationship with the devil child was a rather odd one, not bad, just really odd at times. When you first met Robin and began traveling with her, the two of you became fast friends who enjoyed history and the ancient stories of the world. Though this changed after your victory over Big mom and the subsequent defeat of several high ranking navy personnel, one of whom you remember being an admiral at the time. It's hard to remember, but you definitely recall beating a powerful navy officer who used light as a weapon. You succeeded in this endeavor by primarily using his power against him by trapping him in a giant disco ball if you remember right.

Ehh… it doesn’t matter, like you were saying, after your defeat of such dangerous and powerful enemies, Robin actually asked you to teach her to become stronger! You had some hang-ups on the idea of teaching Robin, but after some thought and a rather lengthy argument with the stubborn woman, you conceded and began to the straw hat how to better control and manipulate her power to a terrifying degree. An excellent example of the level of skill Robin gained under your teachings was her powers over the flower-flower fruit growing and gaining the ability to make multiple clones of herself. The limit of which was unknown, but Robin always limited herself to only having 5 active clones at a time. Otherwise, the backlash from receiving the overwhelming amount of knowledge the clones gain during their short existence would knock her out cold.

Though this teacher and student relationship with Robin wasn’t the weird part, no the bizarre part was how Robin kept flirting with you! This started after you became her teacher and it became progressively worse as time went on and Robin starting getting weird whenever you went out on a date. Part of your mind looks back on your past experiences in this world and question whether or not Robin played the voyeur whenever you had sex with whoever you dated at the time! You ask this because the next morning after such events, Robin would have a Chesire smile and would be extra flirty for some unknown damn reason!

Despite her obvious flirtations, you and Robin never persued a romantic relationship. Mainly due to the fact you couldn’t tell whether or not Robin was serious about wanting said relationship or if Robin was simply being Robin and was just playing with you. Despite this, you and Robin kept a close friendship, and as a result, Robin was slightly sad to see you go but understood and agreed that she too should leave to return to her friends and continue their journey.

If you recruit Robin, it would be right at the time when you initially met her after being separated from the rest of the straw hat crew. She may not like the idea of taking over worlds at first, but if you offer her the chance to not only grow beyond any possible limit she had back in her world but also the opportunity to look at and study other worlds, she may just join. Also, It would be nice to have an old friend watching your back during your crazy and wacky journey to bring balance to the multiverse…
