The era of pirates is upon us and in this era lives a boy who wish's for nothing but to be the strongest in the world. That boys name is Michael D. Zero brother to Monkey D. Luffy and member of the Straw Hat crew. How will his journey unfold tune in...
The Shandorian warriors move forward striding full speed towards God's Shrine. Making good pace they all suddenly freeze in mid air.
Shandorian: What the?
Braham: I can't move!
Kamakiri: What's happening? Why'd I stop moving.
???: Greetings, my Shandorian friends. You're looking well.
They look up and sitting atop a rock formation is Shura one of God Eneru's 3 remaining priest along with his bird companion Fuza.
Shura: I'm glad you could come to my party.
Shandorians: Shura!
Shura: Now now, I appreciate your enthusiasm but honestly, I know my own name. Hahaha, I'm afraid I've got some very bad news. There have been a few changes made here on Upper Yard since last night.
Kamakiri: Err...
Shura: Can't move, can you? Too bad. You only have a 3 percent chance of surviving The Ordeal of String.
Kamakiri: No, not the Ordeal of String.
Shura: I would've warned you but then I thought, why ruin the surprise for them?
Reflecting light at just the right angle it's possible to see that they are all being tied up by thin threads.

Kamakiri: It's string cloud.
Shura: Oh, very good I'm impressed. It's spread throughout my area. Too thin to be seen but so tough not even the strongest man can break free once entangled. My mighty string cloud. You fools have been wrapping yourselves up in it since the moment you stepped foot in this forest. Take a look around your bodies are covered in string. You've all become puppets near playthings at my disposal. And here comes another!
Jumping out from the tree a blur smashes into the rock formation Shura was sitting on however before the impact he'd jumped onto Fuza and took to the skies. As the dust from the impact settled the man responsible for it comes into view. Zero who had tracked down Shura now stares at his found prey.
Shura: Hmp, so you survived after all. Nice of you to join us Blue Sea dweller.
Zero: It was easy to track you. That feathered friend of your stinks.
Shura: However, you got here doesn't matter. This time I won't be leaving without your corpse. I'll finish you!
Fuza: WAHH!!
Fuza blast a galleon of fire down at Zero who jumps out the way and up onto a tree branch above. Now being on equal level with Shura.
