Me and my dad, Batman, were playing volleyball. My dad, Batman hits the ball over and I miss. “One to nothing!” shouts Benjamin. I go to hit the ball again but I'm interrupted by Goku. “Oi, do you see that ship heading for us? Bit strange, innit?” Goku points out. “It's gonna crash!” my dad, Batman, shouts, grabbing us all and pulling us away. It hits the ground with a crash. 

My Dad, Batman, quickly rushes over, pulling a girl with black hair out of the wreckage. “Are you Batman…?” she asks. “No. I'm Corbin's dad, Batman,” he responds. “Is anyone else on the ship?” I ask.

Suddenly nine pirates jump out. “Looks like the Thousand Sunny is wrecked,” a muscular cyborg states. “Dangit, Jinbe! It's all your fault!” Nami shouts. “Man, I'm hungry,” says a pirate in a straw hat. “Is there a Krusty Krab around here?” he asks.

SpongeBob bursts through his door. “Sure thing, Straw Hat Luffy!” says SpongeBob. They all go to the Krusty Krab. “A Krabby Patty might be a good idea, dad,” I suggest. “Mind if we come with you, Luffy?” asks my dad, Batman. “Sure,” Luffy responds.

We all go to the Krusty Krab. “Man, what should I get for a drink?” asks Luffy. “Oi, bruv, you should order a kelp shake. Second best drink, first being tea!” recommends Goku. Luffy drinks the Kelpshake and gets disgusted. “This is the worst drink I've ever had!” Luffy exclaims. “Oi mate, that's a bit disrespectful,” Goku responds calmly. Luffy tries to throw it out but Sanji kicks him. “Don't waste food, stupid!” Sanji shouts, taking the Kelpshake. He sips it. “This sucks,” Sanji says, throwing it out. “Oi, you can't just insult the second greatest drink, the first being tea!” Goku complains. “Tea sucks too!” Luffy yells, punching Goku through the wall. 

Goku stands up and stretches, taking out his epee. “You've made a mistake, blud.” Goku slices through Luffy. “Owie!” Luffy exclaims, punching Goku. Goku grabs Luffy and throws him all the way to the Blue Lagoon. We all ran over there, watching the fight continue.

Luffy gets a counter attack on Goku and almost knocks him out. He hits him with a Gum-Gum Pistol and Goku falls to the ground. Luffy grabs Goku's epee, pointing it at his neck. Goku smiles at him, saying, “I'm only using 5% of my power, innit.” Goku throws Luffy into the Blue Lagoon and he quickly starts drowning. “Help! I'm drowning!” screams Luffy. Luffy throws his arms around desperately. “I need to save him!” shouts Chopper, going into Heavy Point. “Wait for me!” Brook shouts. 

They pull him out as my dad, Batman, calms down Goku. Goku breaks free from his grasp and approaches Luffy. “Don't do it! It's not worth it!” shouts my dad, Batman. Goku shakes Luffy's hand. “That was some skilled dueling, bruv,” he says. “Same to you,” Luffy responds. They become friends.

“What brings you to Bikini Bottom?” I ask Luffy. “We were following a treasure map and we crashed,” he answers. “It's because you failed to follow my instructions,” Zoro mutters. “Allow me to introduce you to our navigator, Zoro,” says Luffy. “We're looking for a treasure,” says Zoro. “If you would like to find it with us, we promise you will get a cut of the treasure,” Nami says. “We're up for the challenge!” said my dad, Batman. “I might as well join as long as it won't cut into my teatime,” Goku says. “Well then, join my crew,” Luffy says with a smile.

Franky, the cyborg, builds a new ship called the Going Merry. We hop on board and start our journey. “Where to first, Zoro?” asks my dad, Batman. “Rumor has it there's a man at the Salty Spitoon who knows where the next map is,” Jinbe says. “Then allow me to lead the way,” says Zoro. 

We park the ship and hop out, approaching the Salty Spitoon. “How tough are you?” the bouncer asks. “This tough,” Usopp says, pulling out a handgun. “Come on in,” the bouncer says, moving out of the way. We enter and look for the man matching the description. We found him.

“Hello,” says old man Jenkins. “Where's the map?” asks Luffy. “To know where the map is, it'll come with a price,” says old man Jenkins. “Doesn't matter to us as long as we can get to the treasure,” Nami says calmly. They pay him 500 berries and he leans in close. “The map be in the jellyfish fields, guarded by the King Clam. He is a powerful clam that can eat ye in but a second,” old man Jenkins whispers. “I know the place,” says Zoro. “Let's go then,” says Chopper. “Hold up a moment. I wanna try a drink,” says Luffy, going up to the counter. “One order of jellyfish milk please,” Luffy says. 

He takes a sip and gets grossed out. “This drink is horrible!” Luffy screams. “Hey, bub, keep your mouth shut, huh? Okay?” a man growls at him. “Who do you think you are?” asks Luffy as he breaks a glass over the man's head. “BAR FIGHT!” someone screams before the whole building goes into a war. “Gather around me! Hold onto me and stay close so I can use my Germa 66 ability, turning us all invisible!” Sanji instructs. We all grab onto him, except for Luffy who fights his way through. We all get out safely. 

“To Jellyfish Fields!” shouts Benjamin. We set sail, leaving Salty Spitoon behind us. Nico Robin looks over at me. “Hey there,” she says with a smirk. “You single?” she asks. “I'm sorry, I already found the love of my life. But Goku seems interested,” I responded calmly. Goku sips his tea as he looks her up and down. I look out at the open sea. I sometimes think of her even though we don't talk anymore. I begin to realize I'm missing school for this, but decide I don't care. Being a pirate is cooler than education. 

We stop at Jellyfish Fields and get out. We look at all the jellyfish. They're beautiful. “Follow me, everyone,” says Zoro. We enter a cave covered in clam shells and pearls. Amongst the pearls lies a map. “Grab it quick!” I say. Luffy grabs it and looks at it. “Looks like the right map. Zoro, come take a look,” Luffy says. “Watch out!” my dad, Batman, shouts, pointing at a huge pearl coming for us. We start running for our lives. 

We make it out of the cave just in time, but we're not safe yet. The giant clam roars at us. “Stay back!” Sanji says. “I'll kick this clam to death! Watch this! Diable Jambe!” he shouts, jumping into the air and kicking the clam as hard as possible. Its shell cracks into a million pieces. Sanji pulls out a cigarette (which is super bad for you) and lights it. (Don't smoke.) 

“Robin, Nami, if you're scared, feel free to hug me,” Sanji says. “No time for that, Sanji. We need to get going,” says Zoro. “Zoro is right,” says Luffy. “This map is taking us to a place really far from here. Tortuga,” Chopper says, reading the map. “Then let's sail,” I say. 

We get on the ship and set off on our journey. It seemed like smooth sailing, but trouble was brewing.
I slept in my room on the ship, dreaming of all kinds of wonderful things. Suddenly, a loud bang woke me. “What's going on?” I ask, panicked. “The ship is being attacked!” yells Robin. “Everyone to their battle stations! It's the Wet Bandits!” shouts Luffy. We rush to the cannons and return fire, but it's no use. They pull up next to us, jumping onto the ship to duel us as it sinks. “We be the Wet Bandits!” says Captain McAllister. “Give us ye booty!” demands Marv. 

We try fighting them, but they are incredibly skilled. Even Goku struggles to use his epee. When all hope seems lost, we hear three gunshots. The Wet Bandits fall, dead. As we turn to see our savior, we are greeted with the sight of a legend. 

He smiles as he looks down at us, taking a swig of apple juice. He is none other than Captain Jack Sparrow. “Welcome to Tortuga,” he says with a smile, pulling me up off the ground. 

And welcome aboard the Black Pearl.”
