One Piece: The Emperor Luffy

"Hey brat, why such a long face? Are you so sad because you are going to be separated from Grandpa?"

After the sparring session, Garp took a look at Bogard's injury and saw that it was just a small physical wound, not too big. He brought Luffy to the deck while scolding him but Luffy could still see the big proud smile plastered on the old man's face.

Garp was really proud of his grandson's talent, laughing happily but glancing at his dear grandson's facial expression, Garp saw Luffy was somewhat gloomy and sad. The old man thought that his grandson was sad because he had to leave him alone once more and his heart softened.

Luffy, on the other hand, felt his facial muscles twitching listening to his grandpa's words.

'It seems rather than decreasing, Grandpa's misunderstanding is just increasing even more...'

Luffy could not believe how could a character like Garp would become such a fool from time to time.

But since he didn't want to receive a fist of love, Luffy smiled bitterly and nodded his head, faking a tear.

"I am going to miss you, Grandpa."

"Bwahaha... what a filial grandson!" Garp laughed, rubbing Luffy's head.

Luffy had changed very much compared to around a year ago. His height had increased quite a bit, reaching a whopping 135 cm, a total increment of 44 cm. Not only that but he also developed some crazy muscles on his skinny body, especially his arms and chest, giving the vibe of a dependable person. Luffy was also radiating the aura of a mature adult, combined with his charming face, he could easily cause every girl and woman to turn their heads at him.

Speaking of charm, Luffy was always gloomy about his Incubus King Physique that he received as a reward for special reward six months prior.

It happened right after the Tiger attacked the Holy Land's incident.

When Garp brought him to the Marineford, Luffy received a Special mission. He was training in the room when the system notification voice attracted his attention.

*Tti-ring*

Luffy raised an eyebrow, clearly surprised, and opened the mission.

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Special Quest:

Save the three poor souls from their darkness and guide them to the light. 

Reward: (Hidden)

Penalty: Strip the current stats

(Hint: Open the GPS, it will guide you to your mission.)

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Reading the description left Luffy dumbfounded. He had never seen such a harsh penalty ever.

Luffy had worked very hard to achieve his current level, he could not just let everything go in vain.

He clenched his fist and decided to complete this special quest.

Well, he didn't have a choice since the system blackmailed him.

Luffy closed his eyes and activated his Observation Haki, sweeping through the entire ship and the surrounding place. He knew that it would be absolutely impossible to leave the ship without getting discovered so he had no choice but to use his devil fruit ability.

Luffy found a relatively safe spot close to the ship and activated his devil fruit ability 'Warp'.

The space around him distorted and his body seemed to become lighter.

'Now!'

Luffy cried and his body disappeared from his original spot, appearing out of the ship on the solid ground out of thin air.

*Phew-!*

Luffy wiped the non-existing sweat. Since it was the first time for him to use this ability to warp at places that he could only see or observe with his observation haki, he was taking a huge risk and could have harmed himself or someone else.

Because of the monitoring on him every day, he had been unable to train his devil fruit ability at all.

Shaking his head, Luffy opened the GPS and a holographic imagination of the world appeared in front of him. He could see the presence of certain people with that just like Grandpa, Bogard, and himself. Aside from that, he could also see the islands that he had visited with his grandpa during their voyage.

And now there was an extra spot on the GPS, clearly the location of his target.

Luffy closed his eyes and again observed the Marineford since he had to look out for Marines soldiers especially ones who were on patrol at the moment.

He moved slowly and carefully, avoiding as many marines soldiers as possible.

After a struggle for twenty minutes, he finally entered the city.

*Phew*

"Now, I can move quickly." Luffy grinned and used Geppo to walk in the area and then dash forward, running in the sky with ease.

'Sorry Sanji. But I can use Skywalk better than you. I will be sure to train you properly in the future.'

Luffy left the city area too and moved towards the outer area, resting on the massive red line to catch his breath.

He had to finish this quickly and then return back to the ship before he got discovered.

He quickly checked the location again and soared into the sky, running on the empty air. And finally, after another ten minutes, he arrived at the location.

Looking ahead, Luffy could only see rocks as far as he could see with no people in sight.

Furrowing his brows, he closed his eyes and closely observed the rocks, finding three signs of life hiding in the cracks.

Luffy was overjoyed and dashed toward that crack.

*Creak!*

Just as he landed, the rocks made a soft sound but it was enough to alert the people hiding inside.

"W-Who...? Who is there?" A stuttering yet cold voice echoed from the insides.

Luffy quickly raised his hand and slowly walked inside while shouting.

"Please don't attack me. I am just here to help."

Suddenly, a figure dashed towards Luffy from behind the darkness.

A light flashed in front of Luffy and he quickly moved a few feet backward, avoiding a blow. He raised his head to look at the attacker, only to be left speechless.

The one who attacked him was a young girl, barely 180 cm in height. She had a head full of long black hair and was tied in pigtails. Her dark brown eyes with long, voluminous eyelashes were staring at him in vigilance. She was quite skinny, so much so that the rags she was wearing seemed loose.

There were two more figures behind her. One on the left was half a head taller than the black-haired girl with a head full of long and disheveled orange hair. Her dress was also worn out just like the other two.

The last one was the tallest of both, almost a head taller than the first. Her large sea-green eyes had fear in them as they reflected his face. Her hand was full of long green hair.

'Ehh, The three Gorgon Sisters! They are the target of my mission!' Luffy was speechless to find the three of them on the location.

"A man?!" Boa Hancock gritted her teeth in anger and barked coldly, like a wild beast. "Are you here to capture us?"
