The king is back and it's here to conquer

Chapter 9

Four years later

Somewhere in the East Blue

Luffy POV

It's been four years since Luffy come back to East Blue. Since then, he has been training even more and of course, trained Usopp and Kaya. He didn't have luck finding Zoro in that time, so, we if the timeline follow his course and he didn't screw up anything, he will be in Shells Town. As he had guess, the credit for defeating Kuro was given to Morgan, who was close by when Luffy took care of him but as Morgan is a coward, he didn't even mention Luffy at all. Well, time to meet Coby. This he will take him with him and turn him into his apprentice. In the last timeline, Coby at some point was brainwashed by the absolute justice followers and was the one that killed Nami and in turn Luffy was the one that put him down. Luffy could see he didn't know what he was doing and there was no way to save him. He won't let him be turn into a drone and as for the son of Morgan, he heard Coby killed him as a test to his new way of seeing things.

"I am seeing a ship attacking a civilian cruiser!" Said Mari "your orders, captain?"

"Let's see who it is, shall we?" Luffy said "after all, today we start to conquer the East Blue?"

"Ohh, that's sounds like a challenge" said Hancock "besides, I think our dear Nami is having fun robbing whoever is captain of that ship". So, for now the timeline is playing the same way. Nami hasn't ask him for help yet and Luffy knows is because she thinks Arlong is unbeatable. Well, he will wait until she is ready. The only thing that changed, is that they hadn't use Merry, as they had the Sunny with them from the beginning but Franky been Franky, had make it part of the Sunny. It was a ship they can use for emergencies, which was amazing

"Get ready to battle!!!!" said Luffy as he started to took out Ace and all the pirates in Alvida's ship froze in an instant

"Holly shit!!!" Said one "is Monkey D Luffy!!!!"

"What the fuck is he doing in the East Blue!!!!" Said another "but who cares!!. Every man for themselves!!!!"

"Stop right there!!!!" Said Alvida but the crew was still running like headless chickens "why are you afraid of a brat!!!!"

"This brat has a bounty of eighty five million, hag" said Hancock. Alvida was pissed off and Luffy saw as she try to attack Hancock but she just kick her away, sending her flying far away

"Well, that was easy" said Luffy sweet-drooping. Alvida's crew froze at what happened. He then felt Coby with his haki and he had forgotten how weak he was "you, the one with the pink hair"

"Me???" Coby said shaking in fear

"Well, I am for an apprentice and you are perfect" Luffy said smiling. Coby's eyes widened at that and he just went to Luffy "Nami, I know your there" Luffy said "come on, we will take you with us if you want"

"How did you know?" Nami ask annoyed

"Well, if you had come to train with us, you would have known" said Sonia

"But you decided reject our offer, remember?" Mari ask

"Yeah, yeah" said Nami "I accept your offer of going with you for a while". Luffy knew what was going to happen. Although her chances of stealing the Sunny, were very low for her and besides, she knew Luffy was very strong and probably didn't want to piss him off, even though Luffy would never hurt her, but it didn't mean he couldn't punish her with what hurt her the most. Money. Luffy chuckled when Nami shivered

"So, what's our next destination?" Luffy ask

"Shells Town, Captain" said Nami "I will take you there, no problem". Did she just call him Captain?. Luffy saw Nami blushed a crimson red "I mean, Luffy!"
