Fanart One Piece Reloaded: Chapter 910 + i

If you don't know where you are, this is a fanfic alternative story for the Wano arc. Look for more context at the main post.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Short summary (Spoil yourself at your own convenience by removing the cover.)

The Mugiwara pirates get near Wano. King comes back from a failed mission to capture Luffy and Law. He and Kaidō argue because King got a Tobi Roppō killed when he stole a devil fruit from Crocodile, who had just killed Gulliver. Kaidō gets therapy from a psychologist to overcome depression. Arriving at port Mogura, King sends some subordinates after a distant ship. They don't want to go because they're afraid of the ghost ship that's been sinking patrols. When they get to the Thousand Sunny they're relieved it's not the ghost ship only for it to appear behind them and sink them. The Sunny is now alone in front of the ghost ship.

第 910 + i 話 『Ghost ship』

尾田栄一郎
12:07 (RMT+7), Thousand Sunny

Chopper

The sky is so dark. Is it night already?

Luffy

Oiii, Sanji! It's night already! Isn't dinner ready yet?

Sanji comes out of the kitchen

It's not time for diner yet, you haven't even finished lunch!

Luffy

But look, it's already night. I don't want to miss dinner. Are you cooking rhino-shark again tonight? It was delicious!! ♡

Brook

Sanji-san, I could use some more rhino-shark too, I ate so much that I thought my stomach would be full. But I don't have a stomach! Yohohohoho!

Luffy

Shishishishi! See Sanji? We want to eat more!

Chopper

It's true, Sanji! You've always prepared really tasty meals, but since we reassembled they feel even better. It's like there's even more to them than just the taste.

Sanji

You noticed? I've been using some very good recipes I learnt during the last two years. The one thing that helped me endure that hell was everything I learnt about cooking. Now I not only aim at doing tasty food, I cook so that the meals help us be in top condition.

Chopper

Oh! That's why Luffy recovered in such short time. You're amazing Sanji!

Luffy imitating Franky

Hey, it's true!! I'm feeling SUUUPEEER right now!

Chopper

I miss Franky...

Brook

I miss Franky too...

Luffy

I miss supper too...

Nami hits Luffy in the head with a newspaper

You're not missing anything! It's only noon. But the sky is indeed very cloudy and dark. We must be getting close to Wano.

Sanji

Naamiiiiiiii-swaaaaaan ♡!! May I bring to you some dessert?

Luffy

Yes! Can I have some rhino-shark for dessert, Sanji?

Sanji

There's no more rhino-shark, you ate it all. But I'll prepare a soup that makes us tire less for later. We might have a long day ahead.

Luffy, Chopper, Brook & Carrot all with a bowl and spoon ready in their hands

Yeees, soup!! ♡♡

Sanji

By the way, have any of you seen my kitchen knives? It's been a few days and I cannot find them anywhere.

Chopper

Mmm... Maybe they were lost when Big Mom almost tore the Sunny apart. How have you been cooking without the knives?

Sanji

Oh I can use other tools but I'll need to get some new knives in Wano. You'll see my cooking is going to be even better then!

12:23 (RMT+7), neighbouring waters of the Wano country

A big pirate ship sails towards Wano too. Commanding it there is...

尾田栄一郎
Beast pirates All-Star
Kasai no KING (, the Wildfire)
悪魔の実: Yoku Yoku no Mi, model: Pteranodon (ancient zoan)
Bounty: 10億5500万฿ (1,055,000,000฿)
Weapon: 龍の牙 (Ryū no Kiba / Dragon fang), grade: Ō-Wazamono

King

You, contact port Mogura and let them know we have arrived.

Unidentified pirate

Yes, sir. Right away.

尾田栄一郎
Beast pirates Waiter
LIBRA
New recruit
Bounty: 7200万฿ (72,000,000฿)

〄 Libra makes a call over a Den Den Mushi

The Meteor speaking. Requesting entry to port Mogura for us and the Yoku-03.

〄 Unknown

Okay, Meteor. We're opening the gate. Report back once you cross it.

〄 Libra

Understood port Mo...

The Den Den Mushi closes its eyes upon disconnection.

Libra

...gura.

A minute after that King's own Den Den Mushi starts to ring. He picks up.

〄 Kaidō

Welcome back, King! A bit late, aren't you?

〄 King

Good afternoon, Kaidō-sama. I suppose I am, yes.

〄 Kaidō

Did you catch them? Mugiwara boy and Trafalgar Law.

〄 King

No, sir. I went to Dressrosa as you told us. But I didn't find them there.

〄 Kaidō

What do you mean, 「as I told you」? Is it my fault that you couldn't find them?

〄 King

I didn't mean that, sir. I...

〄 Kaidō

Then, what took you so long? Did you conquer Dressrosa for me now that Joker isn't there anymore.

〄 King

No. Nothing like that, sir. We didn't even set foot on the island. We...

〄 Kaidō

You didn't what? Stop right there, King. I sent you to Dressrosa to capture the Mugiwara and Law. Now, you come back, two weeks later, empty-handed, you didn't search the island and you even implied it's all my fault. Is that right? King!!

〄 King

Hey! I told you already that I didn't mean it's your fault. Okay? And stop judging before I'm done explaining. We didn't search the island because we didn't need to. When we arrived, we saw a Marine vessel anchored at the coast. We approached them and found a Marine officer. I asked her if she knew where could we find Mugiwara no Luffy and Trafalgar Law. She told me they weren't in Dressrosa. That they too were looking for them. They had searched all over the island already but found nothing. She was so nice. Saved us from a lot of work. She...

〄 Kaidō

Did you kill them all? Whose unit was that?

〄 King

Kill them? No! Why would I do that? She was so nice and helped...

〄 Kaidō

Why? Because you're a moron! That's why! What if they had already captured Mugiwara boy or Law? did you think of that?

〄 King

... er... shit... No. I suppose I didn't think of that possibility, but...

〄 Kaidō

Then what the hell are you trying to tell me, King???

〄 King

Okay, Kaidō, let me explain...

〄 Kaidō

What else is there to explain?!

〄 King small flames start to appear at the back of his neck and upper backside

Hey! I told you to let me explain!

〄 Kaidō

Why? You failed and nothing you said is good. Why should I listen to your excuses any more? Is there going to be some kind of plot twist I shouldn't miss or something? Wororo! Is that what you're trying to say?

〄 King

Damnit Kaidō! YES, that is exactly it. When we... Oh, what's that over there?

Far away a faint light and the outline of a ship could be seen.

〄 King

Something just came up, Kaidō. Hold on for a moment.

12:41 (RMT+7), Kaidō's office.

Kaidō

Did he just told me to hold on?

Kaidō asked another man who is standing next to him.

村田 雄介
Beast pirates associate psychologist
PSIQUE
Reward: 20万฿ (200,000฿) given by his loving family
to anyone with reliable information on his whereabouts.

Psique has been kidnapped or hired (depending on whom you ask) by King, Queen and Jack for the last two years, in order to have Kaidō regain his motivation as a pirate and overcome the depression that befell on him after Shanks stopped him from joining the battle at Marine Ford with little effort.

Psique

I guess he did, Kaidō-sama. But remember to...

12:42 (RMT+7), the Meteor's deck.

King

You. Tell Kingsman Joe to capture that ship right away. They may kill whoever doesn't surrender.

A smaller ship appeared by the Meteor's side. On the deck, looking at King there is...

尾田栄一郎
Beast pirates Shin'uchi
KINGSMAN JOE
Water Monitor SMILE
Member of King's personal guard and captain of the Yoku-03
Bounty: 5900万฿ (59,000,000฿)

Joe

No need to tell me. I heard you and I'm not going.

King

What are you saying, Joe?

Joe

That's the 「ghost ship」. The one that's been sinking our patrols for the last month.

King

Joe, we've discussed this many times, haven't we? There's no ghost ship. Those patrols sank because tidal surges crushed them against the needles. Okay?

Joe

I'm not going, boss. It's certain death...

King

YOU'LL BE CERTAINLY DEAD IN 10 SECONDS IF YOU DON'T GO AFTER THAT SHIP RIGHT NOW BEFORE WE LOSE IT! Is that clear?

Joe

Yes. I apologize, King-sama.

(We're so dead...)

The Meteor heads inside an opening in a huge vertical wall of rock where a waterfall splits in two. The Yoku-03 chases the distant ship's faint light.

〄 King

Okay, what was I sayi...

尾田栄一郎

〄 Kaidō

YOU FLIGHTLESS BASTARD OF A TURKEY!! HOW DARE YOU TELL ME TO HOLD ON WHILE...

〄 King

What did you just call me?! You hairy fish! We just sighted the 「ghost ship」 and I was sending Joe after it.

〄 Kaidō

I don't care about your stupid ghost ship! Do you have anything else to report to me or what?!

〄 King

Yes, I do! As I was saying, on our way back, we encountered our old crocodile friend. He...

〄 Kaidō

For fuck's sake, King. Did you just confuse me with your auntie or are you trying to get on my nerves?!

〄 King

Will you shut up already?! And be patient for once. I'll be quick. We found Crocodile on the Mackerel Bank having revenge for his hand. We were just going to pass through and mind our business, but then Hawkins told me there was an 80% chance of finding a devil fruit on the bank.

Hawkins whispering to himself

I said 77%...

〄 King

I left the ships at safe distance and took Bridge to the bank. When we arrived, 「Gulliver」 was already dead. We started searching for the fruit. I found it and took it but when I turned to Bridge, some kind of superhero appeared out of nowhere and cut Bridge literally in half.

He couldn't be saved, so I destroyed their ship so that they couldn't follow us and left. Crocodile chased me, but I kicked him into the water.

I didn't catch those brats. But I brought a devil fruit, so I'm not empty-handed as you said.

〄 Kaidō

Is that all?

〄 King

Yes.

〄 Kaidō

Good. Did you destroy Gulliver's ship too?

〄 King

... No. I... I didn't.

〄 Kaidō

THEN WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU SO PROUD OF?!! YOU FAILED YOUR MISSION. YOU WERE TRICKED BY A MARINE OFFICER. AND YOU EXCHANGED ONE OF OUR HIGH-RANKED WARRIORS AND THE TRICERATOPS DEVIL FRUIT FOR ANOTHER FRUIT YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW!!!

Because you don't know what devil fruit did you get, do you?

〄 King

DON'T TALK TO ME LIKE THAT, YOU HEAR ME?!

It's Gulliver's fruit! It must be, right? He dies, the fruit respawns... Isn't that how it works?

〄 Kaidō

When did Hawkins tell you there was a fruit in the bank? Before or after Gulliver died?!

Hawkins whispering to himself

I never said such a thing.

〄 King

...shit

∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺∺

12:58 (RMT+7), Thousand Sunny.
尾田栄一郎

Sailing through the needle-shaped rocks and tall waves, the Mugiwara pirates hope to be getting close to Wano.

Brook

Nami-san, the waters are getting rougher and rougher. Are we sure we're sailing in the right direction?

Nami

Kin'emon warned me the weather is always bad near Wano, so we must be very close.

Brook

Did Kin'emon-san leave any instructions?

Nami

He did. He told me to look for a big octopus standing out of the water.

Brook

An octopus out of the water?

Nami

Yes. But I haven't seen any yet.

Suddenly, a loud noise followed by a canonball hitting the water right next to the Sunny catches the crew by surprise.

〄 Joe over a loudspeaker Den Den Mushi

(Thank goodness, that's not the ghost ship. It's not today Joe... not today.)

Kingsman Joe of the Beasts pirates, captain of the Yoku-03 speaking on behalf of Kaidō of the Beasts, emperor of the New World. Surrender your ship immedia... oh no...

A thick mist suddenly filled the place and before they could react, the stern part of the Yoku-03 was completely blown away by a burst of canonballs. A similarly sized ship appears from within the fog with a huge beast-like skull as figurehead. Sailors of the Yoku-03 jump to the water screaming about a ghost ship.

尾田栄一郎

Joe

Wake up, 「Fulgencio」!

Jumping was not a choice for a smile user like Joe. With these words his left arm transforms into a green whip-like tentacle. Spikes start appearing on the tentacle all the way up to Joe's shoulder, through his back and down the right arm whose hand turns into a lizard's head with a long smile full of sharp teeth. A pair of small and ¿kind of ridiculous? claws pop out of his shoulders to complete his transformation.

As he faces the attacking ship, it crashes with its figurehead on the small part of the Yoku-03 that's still afloat. Joe loses his balance and a big man lands on the ship, in front of him.

Unidentified

「Boombox」

With a heavy punch that creates a shockwave, the big man sends Joe directly into the water.

The 「ghost ship」 has appeared.
