Four Horsemen of the Sea (One piece x male reader fanfic)

Chapter 1: Introduction

Far from the shore of Foosha Village, a mighty flag flew high with the emblem of a Jolly Roger; Pirates were approaching the small seaside town and yet those who inhabited the houses there didn't seem scared or threatened as they saw the mark of a famous crew that often visted them, the Red Haired Pirates, a small boy: Bright smile and gleeful eyes sprinted to the shore to see those coming in and waved to them as he stood by the dock and waited for the boat to lay anchor.

You: " Luffy can we please go back? "

Another boy asked, this was you; you had short, curly black hair, you had a couple bandaids on your face and hands and you wore loose fitting clothes. The other boy, Monkey D. Luffy, was shorter than you and had messy black hair and wore a simple t-shirt and shorts. You often avoided the pirates, it was not that you were scared of them but you always had an uneasy feeling so you tended to avoid them; they eventually lay anchor which was when you snuck away to the local church again and slipped from the crowd.

The church was old, mainly abandoned apart from the few nuns that live there- you pushed the door gently to open it with a creak and slipped inside, the place was always dark and damp but an awful smell filled the air again which only meant the unfortunate; you walked forwards as two nuns were left praying over a body, coffin lid open but they remained distant from it.

You: " Another one? "

Carimile: " Oh hey (Y/N), yes unfortunately another one has been taken- it's just us left now... "

Mother Rika: " You shouldn't speak during mourning.. who am I kidding, god has abandoned us "

The two nuns were actual mother and daughter, the mother having been impregnated by the priest when he was still there- the younger one and a friend of your's was forced into being a nun which she hated but now they were the only two left. Mother Rika slowly pulled out a cigarette and lit it, smoke filling the space as she watched the body before she kicked the coffin lid shut.

It was an odd sight, a nun with such a disgusted look on her face and so openly smoking a cigarette in a church; she sighed and tore off her veil before stomping it under her foot- she walked to the living quarters of the church and left you and Carimile alone in front of the altar, a dead body resting on the stairs and empty seats radiating a melancholy air.

Carimile: " Guess the church is done for huh? "

You: " Looks like it... "

Carimile: " Hey (Y/N), what do you plan on doing in the future? "

You: " I intend to look after Luffy like I promised Ace, so probably become a pirate? "

Carimile: " Won't that upset Garp? "

You: " Well what other options are there, stay in this slowly dying kingdom, join the corrupt marines, join the chaos causing revolutionary army or simply just be free as a pirate- you should join us "

Carimile: " I'll think about it... "

There was soon a commotion outside and the two of you ran out the door, people were talking about Luffy being taken by bandits and it seemed he might be in danger- you looked back at Carimile and she nodded before you ran off and the villagers saw you, a kid, running to save Luffy. You knew where the bandits were since you've found there base on accident a few times but now you needed to handle them and save Luffy- little did you know that one who took Luffy wasn't there.

You walked into the base calmly, ignoring all signs of danger and simply entering the base to stand in the middle and wait- bandits noticed you and watched, confused on why a child walked into their base; one big looking bandit began to reach out towards you which was when his hand began to sprout boils that flooded up his arm and around his body- he made a choking noise as he grasped at his throat for air, blood came from almost all his orifices before he died choking on his own life juices on the floor.
