One Piece Bounty Wars

Jack and Luke sailed towards Dawn island at a slow and steady pace for the next few days, not really in a hurry to get there. As they were sailing they spotted one of the ugliest sh.i.p.s either of them had ever seen. It was a pink ship with four sails, one higher than the other three. Each sail has a pink heart, and the ship itself has two hearts on each side. The figurehead is a white duck head with hearts in it's eys. "Who the f.u.c.k would make a ship like that?" Luke asked with a disgusted look on his face. "It's a fat blob who thinks she is the most beautiful woman in the world. Her sense of style matches her looks" Jack said as he visibly shook. "She worth anything?" Luke asked curiously. "$5,000,000 berries and a few therapy appointments. She isn't that strong, anyone with a gun and knew how to aim could kill her pretty easily" Jack stated bluntly. They waited until the two sh.i.p.s were right next to each other, then Luke jumped towards the pink ship while pulling out his two swords. Luke landed on the pirate ship and immediately started to cut people down. After a few minutes Luke walked over to the railing towards Jack's little ship dragging the corpse of a fat lady. "I checked below deck and there is a little bit of gold. Wanna do your thing and get rid of the bodies and store everything?" Luke asked nonchallantly. Jack didn't bother saying anything, he just jumped aboard and stored Alvida's corpse before burning the rest of bodies of the pirates. Jack looted everything before going back to his ship and storing the ugly pink one.

"You know that took a bit longer than it should have for how weak they were" Jack lazily commented. "Oh f.u.c.k you. Killing them took almost no time at all, it was the searching for stuff that took the most time" Luke shot back trying to defend himself. "Yeah yeah. So I think we've been waiting long enough, time to head back to Dawn Island and see if the marines are acting. May as well go in style wouldn't you say?" Jack finished with an evil grin on his face. Luke just shook his head and walked over to the mast before hanging on tight. He rarely could talk Jack out of doing something that he had set his mind on. *BOOOOM!!* Jack and Luke went flying through the air in the direction towards Dawn Island, Jack looking almost bored, while Luke took this time to take in the view. After a few minutes they finally started to decend, and then Jack launched them again when they were a few feet above the water. "You gotta admit I'm getting really good at this!!" Jack said proudly. Luke looked around the area then looked back towards Jack before saying, "Oh Captain... Care to look around you before you say that?" Jack looked around and noticed that there were marine sh.i.p.s not too far away from them. "I take back what I said. I'm not just good, I'm f.u.c.k.i.n.g incredible!" Jack roared excitedly with a fit pump. "How exactly does this make you incredible? Now we gotta deal with them!!" Luke said pointing over to the marine sh.i.p.s that were making their way towards them at this very moment. "We were going to Dawn Island to find the marines, we haven't even reached the place yet and look, there they are. I'm so f.u.c.k.i.n.g good that we landed right where I wanted" Jack replied with a smug look in his face. "That was entirely luck, and you know it. Anyway are we gonna kill them or what?" Luke asked with some hope in his eyes.

Jack continued to stare at the three approaching marine battlesh.i.p.s, trying to decide what would be the best course of action. "We'll see if they want to die in a few minutes" Jack said as he put on a white skull mask, while handing a black skull mask with 2 horns on the forehead over to Luke. "And why exactly do I need this thing?" Luke asked as he looked over the mask. "I'm eccentric. Plus if this goes how you're hoping then we don't need to worry about being hunted later" Jack said happily. "I don't care that I'm being hunted, but I can see your point. We wouldn't be able to cash in bounties if we were WANTED and they knew what we looked like" Luke stated as he put on the mask. "Why are they skull masks, and why does mine have horns?" Luke curiously asked as he admired his reflection off his sword. Jack looked over at Luke's mask before replying, "Because we are death incarnate. We will show the world that the so called "Gods" in Mary Geoise can die oh so painfully. As for the horns... could be a good moniker for you in the future. I can see it already... "The Demon Reaper", "The Demonic Swordsman", "The Swordsman of Death" or something like that." Luke took on a thinking pose for a few seconds before saying, "I could go for either the second or third, but if they give me the first one I might kill a few marines until they change it." The two masked men talked about cool titles clear until the 3 marine vessals dropped anchor right next to them.

Jack looked up towards the deck of the three sh.i.p.s where he spotted 3 men looking down at him. One man had four X-shaped scars on his face and two on his neck, a curling mustache and brown flowing hair reaching down to his shoulders. Another of the three men was tall with a cold face and eyes that are always semi-closed. He was smoking a cigarette, has long brown hair, and wears an ancient war helmet with a small, traditional Japanese dragon on it, and a long red plume hanging from it. The third man had an extremely long black beard with a head to match, and his eyes looked like they were closed, or atleast half closed. 'Well if it isn't Vice Admirals Doberman, Onigumo and Strawberry' Jack thought. "Who are you and what were you doing just now?!!" The man with the four scars on his face shouted, obviously Doberman. Luke turned to look over to Jack to see what he would do, to his surprise Jack looked deadly serious. "Hey" Jack whispered. "You are no where near strong enough to take on either of those three there. They are Vice Admirals from marine HQ, and they are by no means weak. If push comes to shove, let me handle them. I'm fairly sure you can take on the grunts with them, but don't take this lightly. Got it?" Jack whispered seriously. Luke knew Jack had taken every fight so far til now like it was nothing. The fact that these three made him put up his guard, let him know this was not the time to mess around. Luke just gave a nod of his head as a sign that he understood. "Answer us!!" Onigumo shouted angrily. Apparently he didn't like how they were being ignored.

Jack turned his attention back to the three Vice Admirals after he got Luke's nod. "Greetings sc.u.m of the earth!!" Jack shouted with a vicious grin on his face under his mask. He paused to look at each one of them before he continued with, "Who we are is of no importance to you!! As for what we were doing... taking in the view of this lovely ocean, which you are ruining by the way!! So why don't you get the f.u.c.k out of here!!" Vice Admirals Doberman and Onigumo pulled out their swords, while Strawberry continued to watch them with a raised eyebrow. "WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?!! Doberman shouted angrily. 'Looks like they wanna die' Luke thought internally. Jack replied by launching himself onto the deck of the ship that the three Vice admirals were standing on. Once he landed he shot over towards Doberman using Shave at a speed the three bigshots couldn't follow, then sent a Haki coated fist into the mans gut, causing him to double over. Jack didn't stop there, next he pulled out his sword and pistol and pointed his pistol a few inches away from Onigumo's face, while the tip of his sword was next to Strawberry's juggular. "You've made the mistake of drawing a weapon towards me. I hope you learn better in the next life." At the end of those hate filled words, Jack fired his pistol, killing Onigumo instantly. Strawberry's eyes snapped open, then he jumped away before Jack could thrust his sword at him. Dorberman was still bent over at the waist when he heard the shot, followed by the body of his comrade falling over. When he glanced to the side he saw a big hole in Onigumo's face, and blood pouring out of it.

Onigumo punched towards Jack, while bringing his sword up to try and slice him, but Jack saw it coming and jumped back out of the way towards the lowly cannon fodder. Strawberry jumped over towards Doberman to stand by his side, and it was then he noticed Doberman was breathing far too heavy from just that one punch. "What's wrong" Strawberry whispered in a concerned tone, while trying not to show it on his face. "I don't know how, but that punch ruptured a few of my organs" Doberman replied back, still breathing heavily with a little blood coming out of his mouth. Stawberry looked towards the man in the mask, while thinking 'We need reinforcements!!' Just as Strawberry was about to give the command for all of the soldiers to attack there was a big *BOOOOOOMMMMM!!!!* on one of the other sh.i.p.s. The explosion caused everyone to look over in horror to see the ship in tiny pieces while everyone on it was burned to a crisp. No one had even managed to jump overboard to save themselves. Jack glanced over to see Luke was on the same ship as he was now with a big shit eating grin on his face. "Marines burn way better than pirates do" Luke said in a tone that did not fit the situation. "HAHAHAHA!! That was beautifully said!!" Jack roared maniacally.

Luke had apparently snuck onto the other ship while everyone was focused on Jack and ignited all of their gunpowder and other explosives. He made it back to the other marine ship before it went off, and without none the wiser. It probably wouldn't work a second time now that everyone was focused on him now, but with that one idea he had managed to kill over 200 marines. Strawberry was losing his shit. They had confronted a small vessal that fell out of the sky and within a few minutes they had already lost one Vice Admiral and another was badly wounded, and to top that off they had lost a battleship with over 200 marine soldiers on board. "All marine soldiers!!" Stawberry yelled getting the attention of everyone on both remaining sh.i.p.s. "Attack!!' Strawberry roared. Upon his order all of the marines started to charge towards Jack and Luke, while at the same time he charged them as well with a severly injured Doberman in tow. Jack faced the two admirals with a smirk under his mask, while Luke charged in towards the cannon fodder. Jack shot towards the two Vice Admirals at a blinding speed with his sword and pistol at the ready. Jack blocked Strawberry's sword slash with his own Haki coated sword, while his pistol fired in different spots towards the injured Doberman, causing the man to halt his charge and block the blindingly fast projectiles. Doberman might have been able to dodge or block the bullets when he wasn't hurt, but with the ruptured organs, he was moving slower than usual, and one of the shots got him in the leg making him drop to one knee.

Strawberry tried to rush to Doberman to block, but he was too late. Two shots were fired in quick order, one in each of Dobermans eyes and out the other side of the mans head. "It would seem as though you are the last one left Vice Admiral Strawberry" Jack stated with a hint of laughter in his voice. Strawberry was angered beyond belief, but he was also terrified. Never before had he ever been in a position like this, not even against the Four Emperors, and he was here in the East Blue. "Why are you doing this?" Strawberry asked in a trembling voice. "You marines are quite pitiful you know." Jack stated. "You go out and kill people, take them as slaves, and claim to protect. You kill your own people on a whim if that it wins a battle, and yet you still claim to be the good guys. I know there are some marines who are good people, but you three are not. Over some words, you were going to let your other two comrades attack, and probably kill me without a second thought, and now that I fight back, you are asking why I'm doing what I'm doing. I'll admit that I too am quite hypocritical, but no where near the marines level." Jack said in an amused voice. "It was you wasn't it?" Strawberry whispered. "You were the one that attacked the Goa Kingdom" He finished. Jack tapped the chin of his mask like he thinking about something before he said, "That was just the start. The World Government will bleed slowly until no one will do anything for them, and it all starts with the marines. It was me, but there will be many more to come!!"

Strawberry used Shave to charge towards Jack, but his attack was blocked and diverted to the sh.i.p.s deck where his sword burried itself. Jack didn't waste the chance and fired a shot into Strawberry's shoulders. Strawberry let go of his sword and jumped away trying to gain some distance, but to his dismay Jack followed him. "You were all more pathetic than I thought" Jack said disdainfully as he removed one of Strawberry's legs with a swing of his sword. "Lets hope that your Admirals can do better!!" Jack finished as he swung his sword once more, causing Strawberry's head to fly through the air. The marine soldiers that were trying to get past Luke witnessed their comanders head fly from his shoulders, and it was only then that they noticed that the other two Vice Admirals were on the floor of the deck dead. The marines called for retreat and started to run back to the remaining ship. Luke was breathing heavily when Jack got over to him, he also had a few cuts and bruises, but nothing life threatening. "You take a break for a minute, I'll go finish our busniness." As soon as Jack finished his words, Luke dropped to the ground and was laying on his back. Luke raised one of his swords in the air as he shouted "Give'em hell Cap!!" Jack just smirked to himself before he started walking slowly towards the retreating marines.

Not all of the marines had managed to get across to the other ship when they noticed the masked man that had killed the three Vice Admirals walking towards them with his weapons drawn. The marines started to panic, and Jack heard someone on the other ship give the command to just leave their comrades to their fate. Jack appeared on the other ship so fast that no one even noticed him until he killed the man that gave the order. All of the marines froze, as the masked man turned his gaze towards them. "Attention!!" Jack shouted causing all comotion and movement on both sh.i.p.s to stop. "I am going to give you all a choice here and now!! You can give up on being marines and keep your lives or you can all die!! I will not let you pretend to help the people and be my enemies!!" Jack shouted once more causing many to look confused. After a few seconds of silence someone finally asked, "W-What do y-you mean "Pretend to help the people?" Jack looked over to the one who had asked the question before he said, "Do you really not know? The marines only purpose is to keep the world in check for the World Government. Thousands of innocent people get killed every year for the sole purpose of amusing the nobles. Why do you all think you are here?" Jack asked in a questioning tone. "We were sent here to find and apprehend the people responsible for killing hundreds if not thousands of people in the Goa Kingdom" Another marine said proudly. "All of the people that were killed that night were slavers, drug dealers, rapists and murderers. Why would you all care about finding whoever it was that killed them?" Jack asked them. His words brought a wave of confusion on their faces, while some of the older men on the ship just hung their heads in shame.

Jack could see that the marines began to whisper to each other and some even had disgusted looks on their faces. "I can see that some of you already know what I am talking about. The marines are finished in East Blue, and soon to be the world. A new organization is being formed this very minute that does what the marines should be doing, but better. Their goal will be to go around and protect everyone, and punish the wicked. They do not allow slavery, **** or murder. If that you truely want to continue and protect the people, then go join them, if not, then make your choice. Stay with the marines and die, or quit and live. I will annouce to the world the same thing I've just told you, and after that, anyone wearing a marine uniform will be killed on sight!!" At Jacks declaration someone in the marines asked, "Where is this organization?" Jack didn't actually know if the Revolutionaries would build their own navy, and if they didn't then he probably would. "I cannot say that as of yet!! If the World Government knew of them they would send the marines to destroy them, but it will be announced to the world soon!" Jack answered to the best of his ability. Some of the marines looked genuinely interested in this organization, while there were a few who looked like they had given up fighting entirely.

Almost everyone on the ship dropped their weapons and took off their marine coats. There were only about a handful of people that didn't make a move at all, and Jack had a plan for them. Jack gathered everyone that he found that refused to quit the marines, stating that he was lying to them. Everyone watched as the dozen or so men were brought to the front of the ship in cuffs, where a video transpoder snail was recording them. Jack proceeded to get ropes and throw them over the mast and loop the ends around the necks of the marines that were cuffed. Some of them tried to plead with him, saying they changed their minds, but Jack didn't listen to them. Jack walked over and announced that they were all guilty of defending murderers and rapists and other such crimes before he kicked the barrels out from beneath them. After they all stopped moving, Jack put the transponder snail away then turned his attention back towards the spectators. "All of you board this ship and leave here. You can go back to marine HQ and tell them you're leaving or you can go and join the kingdoms around here and protect people. But know this, if I ever see any of you in marine uniforms again after today, you will not get as good as they got!" He yelled as he pointed to the still hanging marines. Everyone nodded their heads and got ready to leave.

Jack jumped back to the ship where Luke was sitting, before he walked down below and looted it of anything of value. When he got back on deck the other marine ship was already quite a ways off into the distance, heading back towards the calmbelt, and most likely back to marine HQ. "Well that was quite the show you put on there!" Luke called out with a smile on his face. "It was wasn't it!! Now I could use a drink!" Jack declared as he sat next to Luke and pulled out 2 bottles of Rum and tossing one to Luke. After a few minutes of silence Luke asked, "What now?" Jack thought for a few minutes before he said, "We'll head to Foosha and train for about a week or two, give you a rough estimation on where your strength is in the world. Then we'll make our way to Loguetown and cash in the bounties, while trying to find some other crew members. I imagine we get maybe 1 or 2 more people before heading to the Grandeline or the other Blues and clean them out of pirates and nobles." "That sounds great and all, but is that our only goal? To kill people. I'll admit I want my vengence against the marines and nobility, but that can't be it right?" Luke asked curiously. Jack paused for a few minutes lost in his own thoughts before he spoke, "I think this world has so much potential to be greater than it is, but the current rulers are ruining it. I wanna have fun and see what the world has to offer, but I've seen so much coruption here that I get sick just thinking about it. I fully intend to at least try and enjoy myself when I can and not have killing everyone be the only thing I think about." Luke smiled as he took a drink of his Rum, "Suits me Cap."

By the time they made it back to Foosha Village it was already late into the evening. Stepping onto the docks, Jack stored his boat before making his way to Makino's bar with Luke standing beside him. They would stay the night there before doing some training. "Get some rest Luke, you're gonna need it" Jack said evily as he closed the door to his room.
