Journey to One Piece

35. Zoro joins

"I was searching for the swords of Zoro and I got them." Ken said as he handed the swords to Luffy.

"Yosh. Now I have the swords and you will die if you don't join us. So what will you choose? Death or life of a pirate? You are already a criminal in the eyes of the navy. Join us." Luffy's eyes shined with dangerous light as he showed the swords to Zoro.

"You!! Are you the son of the Devil or something?" Zoro said but he too had a smile. He was not surprised when he heard that he would be executed soon. People like Helmeppo tended to be too arrogant and would do anything to show their superiority. Zoro had a hope in his heart that he might survive but Luffy came and dashed those dreams.

He really didn't have any other choice.

"Well.. It doesn't matter. I agree to join your crew but on the promise that you won't stop me from achieving my dream."

"What is your dream?" Luffy asked.

"To be the strongest swordsman in the world!!"

"Ohhhh.... I don't expect any less than the crew member of the Pirate King. You don't have to worry, we will be more than happy to see you become one." Luffy said as he brought out a kunai from his bag. He used it to tear the ropes that tied Zoro down. Ken was just standing by and looking at this epic scene. Though there were changes in the plot and Ken had fast forwarded it, the basic plot didn't change.

Zoro had joined the crew!!!

But this good moment was interrupted by one asshole named Colonel Morgan. When Ken raided the base of Morgan with Helmeppo. After hearing the ruckus and understanding the ins and outs of the matter he came to the ground to catch the criminals.

It was there he saw Luffy using his kunai tearing away the ropes.

"You have trespassed a marine base, harmed many marines, besmirched the name of the navy and even brought shame to the name of the Great Colonel Morgan. And for this you three are sentenced to death. Marines... Shoot them to death!!"

Koby, who was looking from the wall and Zoro who saw this were shaken and were scared. Especially Koby. Zoro was thinking that if wasn't able to escape he would never be able to achieve his dream. Luffy didn't seem to care as he tore away the ropes of his left hand.

It was Ken who made his move. It irritated him that a guy like Morgan had so much power that he could execute anyone he liked without a proper trial. Made him remember Enies Lobby. Black clouds gathered overheard at a fast speed with louds sounds of thunder

The clear sky became gloomy as Stormbreaker was sizzling in lightning as he took it out. Koby was excited seeing this. He had only heard Luffy speaking about the magical weapons of Ken before and now he would get to see this in action.

Ken jumped high and landed right near Morgan with the Stormbreaker in his hand. The marines couldn't even understand what just happened. A person just jumped and crossed a few feet in the blink of an eye.

"I wonder what will happen if I break your metal jaw and your metal arm." Ken said.

"Devil fruit? You ate a devil fruit?" Morgan could see the lightning and could tell that this person wasn't simple. But he was Colonel Morgan so he didn't back down and looked at the eyes of Ken who had just threatened him. Ken didn't answer the question of Morgan as he was free to interpret any way he liked. Morgan felt insulted.

"A dangerous person like you should be killed." Morgan said as he used his axe-hand and swung at Ken. Ken too retaliated with his Stormbreaker. And if the audience hasn't guessed the next result then let me say what happened next.

Of course the axe broke into pieces after it touched the Stormbreaker. Morgan stumbled back as he saw his highlighted axe breaking into pieces and blood pouring out from the skin that was attached to it.

"You... You.. How? I made this axe with one of the best metals available." Morgan was horrified.

"Oh!! And my Stormbreaker was made for the metal of a dying star. No metal here could even rival that. Now say goodbye to this base of yours." Ken said as he took his Stormbreaker to swing at the head of Morgan and send him flying away.

But he stopped.

Because he saw that all the marines were pointing their guns at him. They looked dejected and ashamed doing so but they still did it. The marines were under the brutal rule of Colonel Morgan for such a long time so much so that they feared Morgan more than anything else now and for this reason they turned and pointed their guns at Ken.

"You all have quite the courage doing this." Ken smiled.

But this small change didn't affect Ken as Luffy used his rubber fruit and stretched his legs and swiped away everyone with one move just like the original story. Only this time he hit them on their backs.

Morgan was mentally breaking apart now. Two people. Two devil fruits. He was done for!!

"So where was I? Ah yes..." Ken didn't even finish what he was going to say and used the blunt side of the Stormbreaker and hit it right at the metal jaw breaking it apart just like his hand. He coughed up blood from his mouth and was thrown a few meters back.

Helmeppo who had just arrived with a gun with the intention of taking Koby hostage couldn't even reach Koby and his father was lying half dead at the side. He too broke down in tears seeing his father.

When the rest of the marines came and saw that Morgan was defeated they jumped in joy. They were finally free from Morgan. Even those who were hit by Luffy celebrated.
