What if the Whitebeard pirates met Luffy but he already made a crew early on but is in hiding. They only met him 'couse he crash landed on the Moby Dick. No one knows about the crew since they didn't make a public appearance. P.s Jinbei already joined the crew. Everything is happening before the time-skip like before Teachs betrayal and after Luffy sailed out but still didn't make himself known. All ten strawhat members already joined. Jinbei is staying with the Whitebeard pirates after he retired from being the sun pirates captain, he didn't really have much of a choice since his captain ordered him to. Whitebeard wouldn't mind since he considers him as family even if he didn't join the crew.

whitebeard got a call from Marine hero Garp requesting a meeting saying it was important, in the end the meeting concluded in whitebeard getting another son and the crew getting a younger brother. Meeting the boy wasn't really exciting since the boy was in a coma, bandages around his head and mostly the chest, carried by Garp. Chaos aroused not long after when the fifteen year old boy woke up. Secrets and mysterious about the boy made whitebeard and the ones who noticed worried, alot.And trying to figure it out isn't easy as the boy was good at hiding it. I do not own One piece Credits to Eiichiro Oda this is just an au I have in mind.
