His First Love ( Shanks X Reader )

Chapter 1 : A Chance Encounter!!

The Roger Pirates had docked at a lush island, the forest around it thick with greenery. Young Shanks, 9 years old,curious and adventurous, wandered deeper into the forest, enjoying the solitude. His exploration was abruptly interrupted when he accidentally crashed a tree and a figure fell from the trees, landing right in front of him.

Shanks is petrified by the beauty of the stunningly beautiful girl with long, white hair and striking red eyes. She looks like his age too. Her pale skin and graceful, agile build give her an elegant appearance, but there's a dangerous edge to her presence, reflecting her guarded nature.

Yuna, with her striking white hair and red eyes, stood up and stared at Shanks, her expression a mix of surprise and irritation. The sudden collision caused their lips to brush together, and Yuna's face flushed with anger.

"What the hell?!" Yuna exclaimed, her voice a fierce echo in the quiet forest. "Who are you, and why did you just-"

Before Shanks could respond, Yuna's rage boiled over. She summoned a shimmering sword from thin air, its blade catching the sunlight as she pointed it at him. Her eyes were cold and fierce, reflecting her distrust.

Shanks raised his hands in a defensive gesture. "Hey, calm down! I didn't mean to intrude. I'm Shanks, just exploring."

"Exploring my space?!" Yuna shouted, her anger manifesting in a swift, aggressive attack. She lunged at Shanks, her sword slicing through the air with precision. Shanks barely managed to dodge, his reflexes sharp but his surprise evident.

"I said stay away!" Yuna pressed her attack, forcing Shanks to retreat step by step. His heart raced as he realized the seriousness of the situation.

"Okay, okay, I'm backing off!" Shanks called out, dodging another strike. He turned and ran towards the shore, his speed fueled by both fear and the need to get back to the ship.

As he burst through the treeline and onto the beach, the other Roger Pirates looked up, puzzled by the commotion. They saw Shanks sprinting towards them, Yuna hot on his heels, her sword ready for another strike.

"Shanks? What's going on?" Roger Pirates shouted, their curiosity turning to alarm as they noticed Yuna's fierce demeanor.

A white haired girl with Ruby eyes was seen by them. They swore they saw swords around her as the swords keep hitting Shanks but were dogged by him until he reached Rayleigh and hid behind him.

Shanks skidded to a stop near the ship, breathing heavily. "We've got a situation! This girl's not too happy with me!"

Gaban stepped forward with his axes, concern etched on his face. "Who is she?"

"No idea," Shanks panted. "But she's got some serious power and a temper to match."

The sword was about to hit Shanks until Rayleigh flicked the swords away from Shanks with his arm that was covered with haki.

Yuna arrived at the edge of the beach, her sword still raised, her eyes fixed on Shanks and the crew. "I warned you! Don't think you're off the hook just because you're with a pirate crew!"

The Roger Pirates quickly formed a protective barrier around Shanks. "Alright, let's talk this through," one of them said, trying to defuse the situation. "There's no need for further violence. We're not here to fight."

Yuna hesitated, her anger still simmering but her senses slowly taking in the situation. She lowered her sword slightly but remained on guard. "I don't trust easily, especially not with strangers."

Shanks, catching his breath, gave a sheepish grin. "Well, you've made a strong impression, Yuna. But if you're willing to listen, maybe we can sort this out."

Yuna's glare softened just a fraction. "I'm listening, but don't think this means I trust you or your crew."

With that, the tension between them remained palpable, but at least for now, the immediate danger had passed. Yuna watched the Roger Pirates with wary eyes, while Shanks, relieved but still on edge, hoped they could find some common ground.

Timeskip

Yuna sat on the deck of the Roger Pirates' ship, still wary but no longer attacking. The crew had prepared a simple meal, and though Yuna was reluctant, she accepted the offer to sit and talk. The atmosphere was more relaxed now, with the crew doing their best to make her feel at ease.

Shanks, still catching his breath, sat beside her, offering a friendly smile. "Alright, now that things have calmed down, how about we start over? What's your name?"

Yuna took a deep breath, her guard still up but her demeanor softening. "My name is Yuna. I possess the Requip-Requip Fruit's power. I can summon and switch between various weapons and outfits at will."

The crew listened intently. Roger Pirates were well-versed in the world's many powers and abilities, and they were intrigued by Yuna's unique ability.

One of the main crew members, a tall, rugged man with a serious expression, spoke up. "I'm Rayleigh. We've heard of many abilities, but yours is quite fascinating. It must be quite versatile."

Yuna nodded, though her expression was still cautious. "It has its uses, but I'm still getting the hang of it. I've only recently come into this power, so I'm still learning."

Rayleigh's eyes lit up with interest. "It sounds like you've got potential. We don't often encounter someone with your abilities. But that's not the only reason we're here. We're only here for our food supplies and all."

Just then, a commanding voice interrupted their conversation. "Is this where the party's at?"

The crew turned to see Gol D. Roger himself approached, his presence commanding and charismatic. His long dark hair and distinctive beard made him stand out, and his smile was both warm and confident.

"Captain Roger!" Shanks exclaimed, standing up and gesturing towards Yuna. "We've been having an interesting conversation with Yuna here. She's got some impressive abilities."

Roger looked at Yuna with a keen interest. "I see. It's not every day we meet someone with such unique powers. I'm Gol D. Roger, the captain of this crew. It's a pleasure to meet you."

Yuna, slightly taken aback by the captain's arrival, nodded respectfully. "I'm Yuna. I appreciate the warm welcome, though I'm still cautious about strangers."

Roger chuckled, his eyes twinkling with amusement. "Understandable. We've come to know that trust takes time. We're not here to cause trouble. We're merely interested in filling our food supplies and needed here."

Rayleigh stepped in, adding, "And if there's any way you can help us to show where the town is?"

Yuna looked at them as she sigh, " Guess I had no choice... "

The crew loud as the evening progressed, Yuna found herself more at ease in the company of the Roger Pirates. The captain's presence, while formidable, also exuded a sense of camaraderie that gradually broke down her initial reservations.
