Being the son of the Pirate King’s right hand affords you a great many advantages that regular people couldn’t dream of. Lessons in swordsmanship that dojos could only drool over. A grasp of Haki that would make a Rear Admiral proud. An alcohol tolerance that only Red-Haired Shanks could hope to match.

But alas, it comes with a downside more than dark and terrible enough to offset these gains.

Surely Silvers Rayleigh would have the highest bounty in the world if the Government only knew how mind-shatteringly terrible his dad jokes were.

Still, the day has come that you can break free of this terrible torture. The day that your father had finally agreed you’re old enough to brave this world by yourself (or at least without your dad coming in to save your ass from whatever trouble you’ve somehow got into. Again.).

You’ve finally turned

So I read the lastest chapter and metal-cutting/sword-slashes are apparently Armament.

So, uh, Klaus DOES know some Armament, I guess. Oops. Well, not like it affects this thread, anyway!

CALLING FOR
>Silvers Harry
>19 years old

>Silvers Harry
>19 years old

Yeah, that’s right... nineteen years old. You TRIED to leave at seventeen, but apparently ‘something something you’ll be hunted down by Admirals’ and ‘blah blah do you really have to keep announcing your name’, or whatever.

Anyway, the point is that even your dad’s agreed you can sort of handle yourself (by which he means you could beat the ever-loving shit out of a Commodore without much trouble), and now you need real combat experience.

“Try to get a good first bounty,” he says, hugging you tight as you try to squirm out of his grip. “If it isn’t at least a hundred million, I’m disowning you.”

You roll your eyes and try not to be embarrassed by the very public goodbye at the docks. “Ugh, seriously, stop worrying. I’m gonna be fine.”

“... Hi Gonnabefine, I’m-“

NOOOOOOOOOO

You finally manage to shove free (you won’t admit he let you), grabbing your bag and hurtling towards your transport. “I’M GOING NOW, DON’T GET ARRESTED, BYEEEEEEEE~”

You ignore his laughter as you leave, face burning. Silvers Rayleigh is the Absolute Worst!

... But you bet he’d be worse still if he knew you were planning on

Sure, why not. Since we decided to go with "proudly" revealing our name I don't quite want to choose WB or Marines.

>>3426933
>>heading to East Blue and starting from the bottom.
I'm trying to think of ways to get a hundred million right out the gate and the only one I can think of is attacking a fuckton of high-ranked ships (which I doubt even we could handle) or attacking Mariejois like Fisher Tiger and getting outta there real quick.

Or I guess if they see "Silvers" in our name and assume the worst...

>East is easy

East Blue! Weakest of the seas, sure, but actually entering the Grand one rather than starting at Sabondy sounds pretty cool, right? Plus, you’ve always thought going over Reverse Mountain would be fun...

Which first means getting to East Blue, which means going through the Calm Belt. From Sabondy to East Blue is a month long voyage, so you’ve bought passage on a cargo ship heading to

>>3426953
To be fair, I’m pretty sure he’s known to most people as just Garp, or ‘Garp the Hero’. Hiding your surname to protect your family when you’re a big-shot Marine sounds like a pretty normal thing to do.

>>3426949
Also why would we burn bridges with Shanks?
He'd probably like us by default, what with being Rayleigh's son and all.

Starting with a 100mil bounty will be hard anyway.

>Thatchy-boy
>SUPA-SEKRIT

The Calm Belt is Calm only in regards to the weather. There’s Seakings aplenty, and as your cargo ship has apparently decided to go it alone rather than travelling as part of a convoy, that means no-one else to take care of the ravenous beasties.

Fortunately, you’re a certified badass.

Literally. After you got a handle on Armament, Shakky made you a certificate saying you’re a badass, and stuck it to your forehead during the night. It took you an entire day to get it off.

You’re just finishing lopping the head off some idiot over-grown squid-thing that’s trying to eat the ship, when another cry comes from the crow’s next. Not ‘seakings’, but ‘Pirates!’, and a moment later ‘They’re Whitebeards! Coming right at us!’.

... Aw, crap.

Wiping the seaking blood off your blade while the crew rush to haul sail and escape, you watch Sam the approaching ship gets closer and closer.

It’s not the Moby Dick, just a regular one, but you suspect a Whitebeard ship is still gonna be a looooot faster than a bunch of merchants hauling linens, china and spices.

This... could be a problem.

“Hey, mercenary!” The Captain’s call alerts you to his panicked face. Since displaying your seaking-stabbing abilities (but lack of bounty) the crew’s been assuming you’re a mercenary, and you naven’t seen reason to disabuse them. “You’ll help defend the ship if they catch up to us, right?”

I accept payment in money or candy.

>pay me you bitch

“Sure! .... If you pay me.” You smile brightly at him, giving your broadsword a happy spin. “Sounds like a good way to test myself, too!”

“R-right...” The Captain’s eyes flicker to the approaching ship, still closing in. You can see a ‘4’ beneath the Whitebeard Jolly Roger... 4th Division, then. If the Commander’s aboard, Well, you maaaay be screwed - you’re pretty sure they’re at all least Rear-Admiral level - but you never know. “How about... five million beli?”

All right, back.

Welcome to me fucking about with the combat system more as I use a non-canon thread to experiment with different rolls! Much like with the rest of it, we're going fast and loose (like Rayleigh).

>Guts and Griffith
>HELLO

You can't help but grin.

Around you, the civilian crew does their best, but you can see the fear on their actions, even if your Haki wasn't telling you the same. The Whitebeard pirates, though - they look and feel like cheerfulness and a low level of excitement. Not a hint of anxiousness. Hell, some even feel bored!

It's time to put a stop to that.

Grin still widening, you crouch down slightly, before kicking off, picking up speed towards the railings, flinging yourself up and forwards, swords angling towards your targets.

Yeah, they're a pain to carry around sometimes, each of them half again your size and all, but they sure do make for a dramatic entry onto the surprised Whitebeards.

>still flashy at heart

You COULD slam your adorable blades down into the Whitebeards - they're all GOOD, sure, but you could probably chop off a couple of limbs.

However, there's something far more important than removing your enemy from a fight - presentation! Style! Flashiness!

This is your first real fight against serious opponents, rather than idiot muggers or that one Yakuza gang you accidentally pissed off, and you're damn well gonna look like a badass for it!

You set your sights on an empty section of deck, further from the railings than he Whitebeards, ignoring their cries of, "Enemy comin' at us!" They don't feel worried yet, just interested.

Let's see how long that lasts.

You slam down, crouching onto the deck with a solid crunch of the planking under your boots. Yeah, that's gonna leave some cracks. Especially when your blades drive down into floor either side of you, sending small explosions of splinters in their wake.

Then you stand up, hefting the swords from their self-made holes, still grinning widely as you see most of the pirates at least spare a look in your direction, others turning to face you entirely.

Looks like most of them think just a few of their buddies can deal with you.

Rolled 69 (1d100)

>d-d-d-duel

The pirates who've turned to face you - and you recognize a few from bounty posters and the news, but most are unfamiliar - don't feel threatened, or even threatenING. They feel like they want to slap you around to get you out of the way while they rob your ship.

That kind of changes when you gleefully yell, "I challenge you!", feelings flowing to a spike in interest and mild amusement.

Someone calls out, "Which one of us, kid?"

"All of you!"

That gains some more looks from the pirates waiting to board the merchant ship, but the ones who've turned to you just glance at each other in rapidly increasing mirth.

You get the feeling they're not taking you seriously, as one guy shrugs.

"All right then, kid. Lemme show you what a Whitebeard pirate's capable of!"

Cutlass in hand, the guy throws himself at you, feeling like casual ease and mild impatience.

That black vest is nice. I believe we used the white suit one for Flashman so black can be all thematic and shit for this alternate version. And then top it off with a long coat like >>3427683 and we'd be the most stylish pirate on the seas.

He isn't taking you seriously, so you decide to fix that.

Your blades are in your hands, but at this angle, no-one can see the chains attached the pommels. The chains that curl and wind up around your arms, under your sleeves.

The chains you can send bursts of Armament Haki down; to strengthen as normal, or to make tiny pulses. Ones that don't fluctuate outwards like a sword slash, but ripple down the chain and into the sword, allowing you to control their movement perfectly with carefully-applied, rapid bursts of the power.

So you fling your giant fucking broadswords at the suddenly-confused pirate, chains spiralling out in their wake, and send a burst-burst-burst of Haki down them to send them both chasing him as he tries to dodge, slashing through the air like they're possessed, nudging them into new positions or angles as he tries to evade or parry.

"WHAT THE FUUUCK?!"

You can't help but enjoy his bewildered scream as you stand there, motionless but for an occasional gentle twitch of your arm muscles.

The other Whitebeards are definitely paying more attention now, considering eyes turning to you, as one of your swords scores a deep cut along your opponent's side.

You have their attention.

... 'Flashy' may not have been the best plan.

That's a sick technique. Is this the "can see the future" level of bullshit that Armament can reach?

>>3427892
Are we still able to get Captain Gol D Ace with First Mate Silvers Harry?

>pick on a ship your own size! wait, no

Okay - the main aim is to stop them from robbing the merchants' cargo ship, NOT to get in a massive fight, as cool as that would be. Yure not quite dumb enough to take them all on at once, and...

Well, this guy is a liiiittle better than you'd thought he'd be. You're doing your best.to make it look nice and casual, like you're just playing with him, but he really is keeping most of your attacks at bay. Sure, he can't approach, but you can't keep this up forever, especially if one of his crewmates joins in.

It's time to bluff.

"Still think attacking this ship is a good idea?" You keep your voice even. Hopefully they'll decide there's easier picking elsewhere.

"Pretty much," someone replies. Confidence rings in their tone, and you can feel their playful nonchalance permeating through the air.

Ohhhhh, shit.

You recognize the guy stepping forwards, arms crossed and cheery smile on his face. That's the 4th Division Commander himself, Thatch.

At the very least, the guy you're fighting backs off. Unfortunately, that just means the Commander gets even closer, still smiling at you, like he can afford not to give a damn.

"All we want is the Devil Fruit you guys have got aboard," he says amiably. "Just hand it over, and no-one gets hurt, all right?"

>I don't know anything about a Devil Fruit, and I don't care. You're not getting aboard that ship.

>no u

You'd shrug, but you're busy keeping the swords moving in a lashing circle around you, just in case anyone gets any bright ideas, and too blatant a movement might interfere with that. You'd risk it against East Blue trash, but not these guys; they'd spot a sudden weak point in an instant.

"I don't know anything about a Devil Fruit, and I don't care. You're not getting aboard that ship."

The Commander keeps smiling, but you can already feel him looking forward to... something.

"You've got balls! And swords... a lot of 'em." He stands in a casual, loose slouch, the picture of relaxation, eyes moving smoothly over your visible assortment of weaponry. They're not ALL swords, of course, but you do like your blades. "However much they're paying you, it's not worth fighting us."

>I already agreed to the job! If we're going to fight, then stop messing around and fight me!

And if it really is the Yami Yami no Mi that we eat Blackbeard won't kill Thatch which won't set off Ace to go after him so The Abs will be safe! It's the perfect plan!

If we eat that fruit and manage to escape/jump into the ocean holding the fruit, canon dies.

>nothin personnel, pirates

You nod, swords still sweeping around you. "You're right, you're not worth my time. I'll accept your surrenders."

There's a distinct pause.

Then the Whitebeard pirates explode into laughter, the main bonus of which is that no-one's eyes are on the merchant ship now. The cannons have stopped firing as the civilians try to make more preparations as discreetly as possible.

"Hey Commander, this guy is fun!"

Another one calls out, "Don't kill him, Thatch!"

Commander Thatch himself is recovering from his own laughter, smile turned into a blinding grin, a certain levity in the air. "Kid, seriously... just surrender. One last chance. There's no shame in backing down from a fight like this."

You guys just want to eat that damn Fruit, don't you?

>>3428042
>>When I give my word, I keep it.

>>3428042

It's the only way to protect it from falling into pirates hands.

Best for an upstanding citizen like us to take it instead, there's probably a spy on the ship too.
Hahaha.

>>3428061
See if we eat the fruit, the pirates will stop attacking the merchants! Really it's their fault for not being specific enough about how they wanted us to protect them

>>3428061
Hey now! I'm sure a devil fruit is probably worth like... 5 million anyway, right? So it's perfectly fine!

"That sounds-"

BYE FUCKERS, you're already hurtling in the direction of the ship, slamming aside a couple of Whitebeards on your way, and -

(Perception autopass due to going towards the ship)

- wait wait wait wait wait, is the ship LEAVING? They haven't gone all that far, just stealthily separating a few more meters by now, but were they planning on leaving you as a nice, convenient distraction for their escape? While you faced down like, sixty-odd Whitebeard pirates?

Woooooow. That's assholery, right there.

You're good at jumping. Hell, you've already proved that once today. You're even good at jumping while your head is turned over your shoulder, keeping your senses peeled to block or avoid any attacks from behind, as you hear the Whitebeard pirates clamoring at your sudden escape.

Then your smugness vanishes to confusion as their cries to catch you turn to ones to... watch out?

You turn your head forwards, just in time to see the figure aiming a gun at you - and the bullet already in flight, sound of the shot ringing out.

Blood freezing, you try to swing Guts and Griffith around to block the bullet. You might as well have done nothing.

The bullet hits.

Shock and pain fills you, shattering your remaining calm, Haki vanishing in an instant as you fall down, into cold and water and darkness.

The last thing you hear are new shots ringing out, dulled beneath the waves swallowing you.

>H e a d s h o t (via the power of SHENANIGANS, while you remain a prettyboy, you now have amnesia. Gosh, that bullet sure was aimed conveniently!)
>Gutshot (you're not going to be fighting or running around {or escaping} for a while)

These are the only two options, depending on what kind of shenanigans you guys want. It's... also looking pretty Whitebeard route? I doubt this is the only non-canon thread there'll ever be, if you guys want to do Strawhats some other time.

ooooowwwwww

Ow ow ow ow owwwww

You manage to groan, just a little, through dry lips. Your body aches in general, but your head...

You repeat: oooowwwwwww.

When did your eyelids become ten tonne weights? Eeesh. Not fun. You manage to drag them open, squinting up at the ceiling of a well-lit room.

On a ship, judging by the sway and the sounds of waves and creaking wood.

... Why are you on a ship?

Why do you feel like shit?

Who the hell are you?

Clacking footsteps (heels?) approach rapidly, and you realize some sort of monitor wired to your arm is giving quick, steady beeps.

A woman's face, bored, appears in sight, inspecting you. "So you're awake. How do you feel?"

>... This is Hell, right?

>>3428316
Don't worry, just get hit in the head with Garp's cannonballs.

>check out this convenient injury

"What... the hell... did I drink?" And why does alcohol fill you with existential dread?

The woman stares down at you, still utterly uninterested. "About five pints of seawater, mixed with your own blood. I'll assume you're in pain right now. Rest assured, I don't care."

... That's not very reassuring.

Even so, the woman (in what you realize is a really weird pink nurse uniform (or costume? Someone has a fetish...) removes some kind of bandage or gauze from the side of your head, poking (painfully) at some kind of wound there.

"Healing," she declared, slapping a fresh cover on. "Don't touch it."

"... I wasn't going to," you mutter, having by now recovered the strength to take a few sips of water from a glass by the bedside.

You're definitely in some kind of medical bay. Good work, Sherlock. You also kind of feel like you're missing something - and that there's someone you should be stabbing.

Huh.

Nurse-lady pauses in checking your monitor's readouts. "You're in the Moby Dick's medbay, same as the last three days, since you got shot in the head. Oh, and behave or you'll be cuffed."

... Wait, what.

Moby Dick? That's the Whitebeard Pirate ship, right? And you're a prisoner. And you got shot in the head.

To sum up: Whitebeard pirates shot you in the head and took you prisoner.

You don't know why, but you know you sure as crap aren't sticking around here.

>Take the nurse hostage! You can bargain your way to land!
>Wait for the nurse to leave, then STEALTH your way out! Maybe you can find a weapon or steal a boat...
>"Um. Actually, I'd like to leave, thank you."
>"Ah, okay. Also, who am I?"
>Other?

Clearly a man currently hooked to seveal machines, recovering from a head wound, with amnesia, has the best possible chance to escape the boat of the second most famous and strong pirate of all time!
