One Piece: The Emperor Luffy

Chapter 1: Ch 1 - Life and Death



Somewhere in a forest, a young child slowly opened his eyes, feeling some cool wind on his face.

'Hmm... where did this wind come from?... Did someone dares to leave the window open?... I am going to kill those bastards!...'

But the next moment, he was jolted awake, jumping up in shock.

"What the fucking hell..." He couldn't help but cry out, looking at the scene in front of his eyes.

In front of his eyes was a sea of forest that towered above him.

The trees towered above, their branches twisting and gnarled like grasping fingers. A thick carpet of leaves muffled under him as he stared at everything with a dumbfounded expression, his eyes threatening to jump out of their sockets.

'W-Where is this place?... Wasn't I sleeping on my bed with that Russian girl?' The young boy thought of the turn of events, just how he reached this unknown place. 'Did she do this?...

No, this is not possible. Since my men are standing outside, protecting the room... But then, how is this...'

The young boy tried to move his small frame when he realized something.

'Wait a minute! Why are my hands so small?... And what type of clothes are these... Am I still dreaming or something?'

The young man pinched himself hard until tears formed in his eyes.

"Awoo... this pain is real. There is no doubt about it. So... not only I am in an unknown place but for some reason, I have also become small. Hmm... this is... so absurd." The young man barked before laughing out madly.

"Haha, hahaha... I must have lost my mind. Hahaha... or how else I can answer this shit."

He pulled out his slipper and smashed it on the ground.

"Fuck! Just what is going on here? Who did this to me? Which motherfucker is responsible for this crazy ass shit?"

The young man raised his head and cursed with a menacing facial expression, wanting to devour someone whole.

It took him fifteen minutes to finally calm down as he plopped down on the ground, exhausted.

*Growl* *Growl*

His stomach made weird noises with his intestines twitching uncontrollably.

He was very hungry and needed food!

"Where is the damn chef? Tell that bastard to cook something for me!..." He shouted angrily.

*Silence*

But he only gained silence in return.

*Sigh!*

He sighed, realizing that he was not in his mansion but at some unknown location.

Picking himself up, he dusted his clothes before moving forward in search of anything to eat.

The sunlight broke through the cracks, lighting up the dirt path ahead of him, decorated with outgrown roots, wildflowers, and fallen leaves that crunch beneath his small feet.

*Tut!*

While he was walking in a straight path while panting and trying to press down his hunger, a weird voice came from the bushes.

He stopped in his tracks and slowly moved his head to the side, seeing a glimpse of an orangish color.

It was only for a moment but he was sure that there was something in the bushes.

The young man had a very bad feeling in his heart as he narrowed his eyes to look closely.

But the bushes were too heavy or one could say dense.

It was not until the sunlight illuminated the bushes for a moment that he saw a glimpse again.

'Oh my fucking god!'

The young man cursed in his heart as his back was drenched in a second. His hand instinctively moved to his right hip.

'Fuck! I do not have my gun!'

The young man was startled, remembering that he had for some reason become small.

He needed his gun desperately at the moment because...

A massive tiger was hiding in those bushes, staring at him. It had spotted him and also recognized him as its prey.

The tiger was staring straight into his eyes, drolling while its breaths scared the young man.

'Run! I HAVE TO FREAKING RUN NOW!!' He shouted in his mind and turned around, running with everything he had.

The tiger also realized it as it pounced at him, chasing the young man.

'Oh my God! Oh my God! OH MY GOD!!'

The young man screamed while moving in a zig-zag fashion. It was his instinct that he had honed in his previous life after experiencing many life-threatening situations, during battles with gang members.

The young man could try to take on the tiger but only if he had a weapon or something of that sort.

Clashing with a ferocious beast directly with no weapon was nothing less than foolishness.

*Roaaaaar*

'Fuck my luck!' The young man gritted his teeth. 'I will haunt the guy who is responsible for my this state.'

While he was running with everything he had, something caught his eye.

If not for his sharp senses, he might have never discovered it.

Not too far away, he could see that the ground was not hard. It was soft and wet with weeds growing around the place.

If not for him running in a different direction to save his life, he might have not discovered it on his previous straight path.

'It seems God is still watching me...'

He gritted his teeth since it was going to be a very dangerous gamble.

If he missed even for an inch, he would be dead for sure.

*Roaaaaar*

But the roar of the beast at his back awakened him as his expression hardened, he had finally made his decision.

The young man again changed his direction once more, running straight for it.

The beast also followed behind with the distance between them shortening.

The young man could literally feel the breaths on his legs but he gritted his teeth and jumped.

The tiger raised its claws to grab the young man but he jumped in the air and grabbed a vine, escaping its clutches.

On the other hand, the tiger failed to stop its momentum due to the force of inertia at work and landed on the soft ground which was actually a swamp. Just as the giant beast landed, it fell into it, its life doomed.

The young boy landed on the ground and rolled over before he could stop, groaning in pain.

Even though he was successful, the claws of the tiger pierced his back and left a wound, fresh blood flowing out.

He groaned in pain, gritting his teeth as he watched the tiger trying to escape, moving its limbs.

The young man sighed and took a sigh of relief, catching his breath. 

However, at that exact moment, something happened.

*Tti-ring*
