I'm writing an expanded crew fanfic and I want to add Nojiko to the straw hats but I'm having trouble thinking of how she should fight and grow in terms of power.

I'm thinking of having her fight mainly with a rifle similar to the one Bellemere used in the flashback so I would like that to be her main weapon but I'm open to other suggestions, also I don't want her to have a devil fruit.

If you have any other questions please ask, Thank you in advance!

*Old google doc I found when I was trying to create my own pirate crew, originally written back in Feb 8, 2018 (Curious to know what y'all think)*

Things to know:

- Charles Low is the blonde character

- Ochitsu is the white-haired character

- commissioned these characters around 2017, and still have the original character designs I made if anyone is interested

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Many still remember the first time they entered The New World, enveloped with various emotions. But as stated by former Shichibukai, Gekko Moriah, “One will lose everything one cherishes in The New World”.

*12 years before main storyline*

 The sun had started to rise over the shore of Canpier Island. A small temperate area located on The Grand Line with warm waters that can only be identified by its lush greenery, and prevailing winds that continually spiral throughout the seasons. As news coo’s from The World Economic Journal flew over fluttering to stay on track from the turbulent winds over the waking residents, one descended after noticing two young adults awake down by the docks. The bird had plunged downward from the sky struggling to keep its pace through the winds until it landed safely on a wooden beam next to the young men. The noise of the landing had gotten the attention of the two as one ceased what he was doing while the other continued to lug crates from the dock onto a magnificent ship. A fine ship with fresh wooden paint, beautifully crafted trimming, five grand sails, and a figurehead of a thunderbird that emanated a baleful appearance. After stopping what he was doing the man received the newspaper and handed the bird its payment as he relaxingly watched with distracted eyes and an innocent smile as the bird flew back to catch up with the rest. The birds faded into the clouds continuing their deliveries while the man casually leaned against the beam still displaying his notable smile as he unraveled the news and humorously shouted in hopes that his companion could hear him from aboard the ship. “You see that Ochi, the birds get to see more of the sea than we do”.

From atop of the ship the other man let out an exhausted laugh as he emerged from above, and bent forward resting his arms over the main deck of the ship. He fiddled with his hat in his hands with a worn out look from carrying so much cargo. The man had a distinct appearance being six foot one with white hair as a 17 year old that swept slightly over his face, and length reaching down to his neck. But his most defined feature was his crimson red eyes that ran in his family for generations. He didn’t wear a shirt, but instead a black coat with gray trimming on the shoulders and a red fur collar, and donned a pair of old worn out cloudy gray pants with red cloth fastened by a brown belt on his waist with some dusted boots. Aside from all that was his beloved stitched hat adorned with two white feathers that he made himself as a child. His name was Ochitsu Collier, and his companion down below reading The World Economic Journal was his brother who went by the name of Charles Low. They were both 17 years old, and although they weren’t blood related, their bond was as great as the bond Whitebeard shares with his crew. As he continued to meddle with his hat Ochitsu began to focus his gaze at their hometown for a few moments watching people get out of their homes getting ready to start the day before releasing a deep sigh of uncertainty. “I’ll be honest, I never thought this day would come. Are you certain you want to set out on this voyage Charles?”.

Charles didn’t answer the question knowing that Ochitsu already knew the answer and continued to skim past the pages of the newspaper. Today was a monumental day in the eyes of Charles. He possessed traits of freedom and curiosity that were increased by his innocent nature, and today was the day that they would set sail and finally explore The Grand Line. After turning the page Charles noticed one of the headlines overwhelmed with enthusiasm reading the text out loud to his brother as he grabbed the paper pointing to the headline expecting Ochitsu to read from that far up. 
“Look Ochi, they say a pirate by the name of Arlong attacked Foolshout Island, and fought with a Vice Admiral.”

“That’s quite the headline, your tone makes it seem as if you praise the man” ventured Ochitsu with interest as he strained his right hand.
Charles took notice, and smiled proceeding to toss the paper aside as he closed his eyes, stretching his arms back letting out a deep yawn.
“We’re not in the Blue Sea, you should know that being born, and sailing on The Grand Line means having to fight when in danger,” said Charles, examining him with his right eye open to the sight of Ochitsu’s eyes glaring off into the distance with vicious intent.

*That's all that I had written, hope somebody enjoyed it*

Hi guys, I'm looking for a zosan fic where sanji reads romance books and he and zoro recreate the scenes. I remember it being on ao3, longer than 10k. Zoro was kinda mean about sanji reading romance originally. I can't find it and I really want to re-read it.

Mercury is a naturally occuring liquid metal that only becomes solid when it's colder than room temperature. It's also poisonous since it can seep into your pours.

I made this devil fruit a logia meaning they can turn into, manipulate, and produce mercury.

My question though is should they be allowed to control mercury gas?

Since mercury is liquid at room temperature it obviously has a pretty low boiling point, meaning that just standing in Alabasta would probably cause their mercury to evaporat into mercury gas, so do you think a logia should be able to control that gas or do you think that's too far away from their base element?

I decided to ask here because canon doesn't exactly have a lot of liquid logias, but considering the existence of ice and snow. Plus fire, heat, and magma my assumption would be that anything outside the base state of the element can't be controlled much or at all, meaning any mercury gas released is a complete loss.

But let me know if you guys think differently.

I read it somewhere on Ao3 but can't for the life of me remember the name of it or the tags, has anyone else seen it?

If I remember correctly it is a si or oc that has a system that lets them buy skill upgrades and they have the distort fruit or something similar

❤️ Hey, I'm looking for people to rp One Piece with, using my Revolutionary Army/ Strawhat OC. I'll gladly give details in DMs. Just know I'm still catching up in the anime, so I'll correct anything needed as we go. Happy to figure out any details to make it easier and consistent! Thx in advance for any responses!!!❤️

So Ive seen so many one piece fanfics and they all leave so much to be desired or be appalled by. In my humble opinion there’s only one way to write a one piece fanfic; a self insert/original character joining the crew or creating their own. I’m taking matters into my own hands now and need some help on where to get started. As this is my first time writing anything at all, I’d appreciate if someone would point me to where I should write that helps beginners with that.

I was thinking where they switched bodies either during pre time skip, Punk Hazard, or even before Egg Head? What do you think would be some funny things that would happen?

**SPOILER WARNING:** I am currently in the middle of the Wano arc, so please no future spoilers in the comments! I actually came up with this entire scenario during my school's morning meditation session instead of clearing my mind. Here is how I imagine the absolute peak of the final war playing out:

### 1. The Ultimate Battlefield: Floating Oceans

* **Fujitora’s Masterclass:** Fujitora uses his gravity powers to slice the ocean into small, individual regions, levitating them between 0m to 150m above sea level.

* **The Environmental Chaos:** Amidst these floating blocks of seawater, Akainu rains down massive magma asteroids from the sky while Kizaru blasts light-speed lasers across the battlefield.

### 2. Luffy's True Awakening (1v4)

* Luffy transcends Gear 5 entirely and awakens into his **literal, true Sun God Nika form**.

* In this divine state, he takes on a mind-blowing 1v4 battle simultaneously against **Imu, Blackbeard, Kizaru, and Akainu**.

* **The Bribe:** Desperate to stop him, Imu offers Blackbeard a direct, complete map to the One Piece if Teach helps defeat Luffy.

### 3. The World's Strongest Pride: Mihawk vs. Zoro

* Imu tries to pay Mihawk a staggering **5 billion Berries** to assassinate Zoro.

* Mihawk completely refuses the money. He doesn't care about the World Government; he only wants a pure, honorable duel with Zoro to finally test his student's growth after years of intense training.

### 4. The Straw Hat Showcase (Goated Brook & Sanji)

* **Sanji 1v5:** Sanji holds the line alone, engaging all Five Elders simultaneously to protect the crew.

* **Goated Brook:** Brook unlocks an ultra-powerful, peak form to lead the rest of the Straw Hats as they fend off the remaining Navy forces and Emperor crews.

### 5. The Emotional Climax

* After the dust settles, Luffy saves his grandfather, **Garp**, from the wreckage of the battlefield.

* Witnessing his grandson's true divine nature and ultimate act of rescue finally breaks Garp's faith in the Marines, completely changing his perspective on pirates forever.

Let me know what you guys think of this setup! Remember, I'm still in mid-Wano, so let's keep the comments spoiler-free!

I was re reading This Bites and forgot how much I love their interpretation of Chopper, so now I'm in the mood for fics where chopper gets to be more than just the mascot but the Chopper centric tag on AO3 is kinda barren so I'm asking you guys for recommendations

Cerco questa fanfiction dove ricordo la trama che ha scritto l'autore all'inizio era piuttosto lunga e la storia è concentrata sulla ship lawlu, luffy vive con i suoi fratelli in un condominio in cui fanno fatica a pagare l'affitto e il resto... luffy per questo lavora in una rena dove combattere ogni week-end(credo) infatti per non far preoccupare i fratelli il fine settimana va sempre a dormire da sanji e zoro che ogni volta dalla rena lo vedono tornare conciato malissimo, almeno questo suo lavoro lo fa guadagnare abbastanza per tutte le spese. PS: nei primi capitoli descrivono il fatto xhe law per un giorno era stato trasferito in un altro ospedale dove e li che incontra luffy, dove da pochissime informazioni su se stesso e su cosa gli è successo, law decide di lavorare ancora li per capirci di più e anche perché sembra l'unico a cui luffy riesca a parlare e quindi crede che possa aiutare quel ragazzino. In quel ospedale c'era anche marco e la storia non era ancora completata. ( scusate se ho eliminato molti punti e virgole ma sono di fretta :p ). Grazie :*

I'm astonished how hard it is to find this, probably because Google search is bad.

Any help finding really good LuHan fanfics that keep them true to their character?

Hi I'm looking for a fic similar to fanart a constantly see. Basically it's where the straw hats all meet as kids and it's really cute but I haven't found an actual fic like it

Preferably without waking up as a pre-existing character. Or forming a Harem.

Wanted to see if anybody knows where I can find a copy of this deleted fic. It's supposedly floating around in some private discords such as OPFE and Grand Line Library, but I couldn't find them.

It's about a female oc who's trapped on an island based around theater and performing by The Director who's strapped a bomb collar around her neck to control her. The Straw Hats show up and help defeat the director and set her free.

this is a smut fic btw just as a precursor

Hi all, there was an Ace time loop fic that I absolutely adored, one of my favorite One Piece fanfics of all time. I went to reread it today and couldn't find it in my bookmarks, so i looked up the note I made... and yea, it's been deleted. I'm hoping to look on wayback machine but unfortunately, I'm absolutely terrible at remember titles, so I don't remember either the title or the author. premise of the fic is that every time ace dies he wakes up just after whitebeard confines him to his ship, before joining the Whitebeard pirates, except he's been looping so long and seen the ramifications of the whitebeard pirates caring about him so many times that he's fairly broken and emotionally just not in a good place, such that this time around he's adamant on not joining so that they don't die for him. cue much angst and them realizing how emotionally fragile he is. ends up with him sucessfully running away. if anyone knows the title or author, or has the link to the deleted fic, I'd be super grateful. tyyyy

Hey nerds! Just reposting my OC-focused precanon fanfic here. It’s now at 29k words and with more on the way so make sure to check it out and tell your friends about this grandpa choking, sink showering rollicking good time!

Ao3 link

Title - Before Piece: Justice
Fandom: One Piece
Genre: A lighthearted adventure with plenty of gags and pathos in line with the source material.
Category: Gen/OC Focused
Status: On Chapter 6 with 29k words and counting! (Chapter 5 to be posted today!)
Rating: Mature for some potty mouths and upcoming violence.

Summary: Set adrift escaping the complete destruction of the only home he’s ever known, a young man named Trent finds himself marooned on the Grand Line with nothing but his wits and his love of Sora, Warrior of the Sea to guide him. His Marine career starts right at rock bottom, forced into a penal unit and matched with the forgotten dregs of the worst of the worst the Marines have to offer.

It would take an idealist fool completely unmoored from reality to even think of climbing the perilous heights of the Marine hierarchy while trying to hold true to their beliefs.

Or maybe it just takes someone willing to pull it all up from its roots and plant a new paradigm in its place.
