Disclaimer: I don't own anything you recognize Return of the Lost PotterOn Halloween night four schools had gathered together in the Great Hall for the selection of the champions who would compete in the tournament. "Welcome everyone as we're gathered here to await the Goblet of Fire's choosing of the three champions who will compete in the Tri-Wizard tournament. Remember that anyone who is chosen is bound to compete or they'll lose their magic forever. Any minute now the goblet will light and the names shall be drawn." As soon as he finished with that the goblet lit up and moments later the first name popped out."The champion for Durmstrang is: Viktor Krum." That was met with loud applause as everyone was excited at the prospect of their idol getting to compete with the loudest being Ron as he went to antechamber as earlier instructed.Seconds later the goblet lit again and out came the next name with a dainty sort of paper airplane floating the slip of paper into Dumbledore's hands. "The champion for Beauxbatons is: Fleur Delacour." This was met with quieter fanfare as things were a bit mixed with that announcement. Most of the females were either glaring or sulking and there were barely any men who could stop drooling and actually think with their heads to clap for her as she went to join Krum.The final name for the night popped out. "The third champion for Hogwarts is: Cedric Diggory." This got the loudest of the night as all the houses excluding Slytherin of course cheered with the loudest being Hufflepuff at finally having a chance at glory."Well then, congratulations to all the champions and I wish them luck in the coming months. I would like to remind everyone-" before he could finish the goblet unexpectedly lit up once again. Dumbledore caught the note and read it quietly, too stunned by what it said as it was impossible but it had to be true as the goblet would never pick someone dead. "Harry Potter." He said it silently yet the entire hall heard him. "HARRY POTTER!" He yelled it this time as if it would magically make him appear. The whole hall just waited in stunned silence then suddenly,"WHERE THE HELL ARE WE?"Being the first to come out of his stupor Dumbledore raced into the direction of the Quidditch Pitch which is where it sounded like it originated from, with everyone else following soon after. Once outside everyone was once again stunned frozen by a sight they had never seen before, not even Dumbledore with his old age could believe what he was beholding. What puzzled the muggle raised was the was the sight of two Jolly Rogers. One with a Straw Hat and the other, what looked like the traditional skull and bones but in the moon with stars in the background. But even still that wasn't the surprising parts. What was surprising was the gigantic island floating over the pitch where the flag sat on top of a building.Taking another glance Dumbledore saw a sight he though he'd never see again. A young James Potter without glasses but he'd recognize that hair anywhere. "Captains Harry and Luffy we've seemed to have arrived at some sort of castle. The Log Pose is not responding to this area. If I may due to all the residual energy discharge and magnetic pull we were feeling as we left our last battle it may be possible we left the New World entirely and entered another dimension.""That may be possible, this is the New World we're talking about, there have been reports of stuff like this happening but I didn't think it was possible until now, well at least we lost the marines." Said Pirate Empress Boa Hancock, wife of Pirate King Monkey D. Luffy and mother of Monkey D. Harry and Monkey D. Nana."This is very strange indeed. Ralix tell the crew to prepare a landing party and to lock down the island. We'll be heading down but I'm keeping us afloat." Harry said addressing his First Mate."Yes captain. I'll fetch your cloak as well." He said running off with three crew members wearing grey vests with my jolly roger on the front."Speaking of, where's the Sunny? We were on it earlier but now I can't find it." said a as usual panicking Usopp as he frantically looked for their ship."There it is Uncle Long Nose. It's in the lake, but there appears to be another ship as well, strange. It's not marine or pirate so it may be merchant but I don't know for sure." stated Nana who was nearest to where the lake was and had spotted it shortly after we landed. Everyone let out a sigh of relief when they saw it was unharmed."Captain there appears to be people on the ground. Possibly the inhabitants of the castle." I looked over at the monitor closest to where I was as we had all went to the navigational building to try and get a reading and one of my crew spotted people approaching on the sonar."Well then looks like we can greet the people after all and maybe figure out what's going on." said Nami but everyone can see her eyes turning to beli signs and you didn't have to be a genius to know what she was thinking.We all headed out to the edge of the island closest to the hurdle of people and we saw them staring strangely at the flags as if they'd never seen a pirate ship before but then I reminded myself that this was another dimension and that was most likely the case. I noticed an old man staring at me as I put on cloak over my suit (red version of what Luffy wore during Strong World) and after summoning a boulder for everyone to use I floated them to the ground and after they were off I jumped off floating myself down to join them.The old man who looked like a saner version of Garp stepped forward showing he was most likely the one in charge. "I am Albus Dumbledore Headmaster of Hogwarts which is a school of magic which is where you currently are. May I ask who are you people and what are those things you arrived on?" Bristling slightly at the slight on both of the ships it took a while before Reila, one of my fighters stepped up."They are our pirate ships. You see from where we come from there are people all over the world who rule the seas as pirates who set out to follow our dreams. Our captain has set out in order to surpass his father who set out several years ago to obtain the greatest treasure our world has to offer. To answer your other question the floating island is our hideout/ship. Due to our captain's Devil fruit, which is a special fruit that gives a random power depending on what it is, it floats in the sky.""Oh that makes sense. WAIT A MINUTE, how're you talking? You're a white tiger for crying out loud."It's always funny to see people react to the fact that I have a talking white tiger on my crew, it gets funnier every time. My crew wasn't even trying to hold in their laughter and some were rolling around on the ground."Alright old man we've answered your questions, not it's time for you to answer ours. How did we get here and where are we?" My father stepped up voicing the questions we were all wondering."You're in a secret part of England known as the Wizarding World. Here we study to train and hone magical abilities." To prove his point he brought out a weird pointy stick which immediately had everyone on edge and then he summoned a flag with with four animals on it out of nowhere."Oh I see so its a mystery stick then." Everyone sweat dropped at that. Even after all this time and after accomplishing his dream he's still the same old Luffy."Not quite father" said Nana speaking up for the first time, "it's energy manipulation similar to what my Devil Fruit can do but it's controlled by using those weird sticks of theirs."Ignoring the confusing sentence Dumbledore continued "Now then I believe I know the reason you've arrived here." That immediately got everyone's attention. "You see this school is hosting a dangerous tournament this year and using an ancient artifact known as the Goblet of Fire three champions were selected this evening to compete. However there was a fourth drawn. For over a decade there has been a child missing from our world. As a baby he was able to defeat the darkest wizard the world has ever known but disappeared with most thinking him dead. I believe that you are him. The child's name was Harry Potter.""Luffy and his crew gasped at that as that was the name attached to the blanket that they found him in all those years ago. Now it wasn't exactly a secret to him that he might've come from another world or something like that but to find out that this was where he was from was still surprising."Oh so this is where I'm from. Nice to finally know. Well if there's nothing else I'm going back up to my ship." i said dismissively as I didn't really care all that much. Though this may be originally my home, I've already made my home with my crew in the New World, telling me I have to compete in some ridiculous competition because a strange goblet told me to wasn't going to change my mind at all."Wait just a minute." A cranky looking old man said approaching from somewhere behind the other old man. "You've been selected to take part in the Tri-Wizard tournament and it is a magically binding contract. If you don't compete then you shall lose your magic permanently." That peeked my interest. You see with all the strangeness of the blues I've known about this strange ability of mine all my life, I never really knew what it was exactly but I've found a way to hone it and it's become an invaluable resource in pirating."Fine I'll be a part of this stupid competition of yours. But I'm only doing it because I don't want to lose the one thing that gives me an edge outside of my Devil Fruit. Ralix go back up with the crew. So what am I supposed to do exactly?""If you'd follow me I'll take you inside to meet with the other champions and we'll go over what this tournament entails,"With my parents we followed him inside the castle with Relia tailing behind us. A few minutes later we entered the room where the other champions were impatiently waiting. From what little I've seen of the place I've got to say I'm not impressed at all. I've seen better places, heck my hideout is better than this place, everything is so ancient that it's not that impressive. Quite an odd trio of people, a stuck up looking blonde, a surly crocodile looking guy, and a pasty brunette."Sorry for the wait boys and girl, but we had a bit of complication," said a short fat man who is clearly a kiss up with a gambling problem. Since I've spent my whole life on a pirate ship I've become an excellent judge of character."A bit, we've been waiting here for over half an hour, what the hell could've taken so long?" said the surly looking guy. I understand he must be pissed but he doesn't have to be so obnoxious about it."Champions it seems we've come across a very strange situation. It seems that the goblet has selected a fourth champion but not only that, but he's been presumed dead. This boy you see in red is the missing Harry Potter."The three of them gasped in shock as even they knew that Harry Potter was presumed dead about a decade ago. "That's impossible he's supposed to be dead, and now you're saying that this child is Harry Potter.""She shouldn't have said that." All the pirates said at the same time."Huh? What do you mean?" stated a confused headmistress.Sudden;y the stupid french found herself thrown into the wall. "Reverse Grapple. Using the power of my Devil Fruit I can use a specific point to cause a person to be stuck to that part no matter how big or small. Normally this wouldn't be very effective but since I awakened my Devil Fruit I've been able to use my powers on people as well as objects. She'll be stuck there until I will her down. Now then seeing as I have a crew to debrief can we get this over with. Oh and don't even think about using those ridiculous sticks of yours to get her down. The reason why it's called reverse is because it throws anything that comes at it back at the attacker." True to her word each of their spells came back at them throwing them out of the room.Cowardly kiss up was the only one left in the room, his nervousness obvious as his voice was shaking with every word. "Well then as you all know the tasks will be spread throughout the year and that you are to have no outside help. The first task is on November 24 see you then." With that he ran out of the room with his tail between his legs. Me and my parents laughing at his quick retreat."Let's go back to the base see you in the morning, I'm sure Franky has the ship prepared for a long stay by now. Oh and before I forget, have fun sleeping on the wall blondie, I'll come by in the morning to peel you off, if I remember that is. Just remember this is what happens when you cross me. Be glad I've decided to be lenient." This tournament might not be so bad. I might even be able to have a little fun and probably even find some gold along the way. I thought as I step over the bodies of the unconscious adults. This world better watch out, it'll just be another one of my playgrounds.

Disclaimer: See First ChapterRude Awakenings"Hey boss, how was your meeting last night with those weirdos?" Asked my first mate who was a bit pissed that I'd left him behind while I went to the meeting last night."Same as usual Ralix. It was like dealing with marines. Tried to have a civil conversation and they pissed me off. Stuck one girl to the wall using Reverse Grapple and everyone despite my warning knocked themselves out trying to free her. I said I'd get her down in the morning but I never specified which. They're probably still waiting for me. I'll get her in down today, maybe. If not there's always tomorrow."That caused the whole crew to break out in laughter as they knew I was being serious, my reputation precedes me even among my crew. As we were laughing the proximity alarms went off and I sensed someone bouncing off the barrier. Swiftly followed by three others."Saw that coming a mile away. The wonders of an awakened fruit. I can control the air around the island so they can neither see in or get in through any means without my allowance. Come on men let's go greet our guests. They should've fallen in the brig by now." That caused more laughter as they knew that the automatic brig was still active as they'd made sure of it the night before as they expected something like this to occur.We went outside to see some of the men using rope to pull the cage on top of the porch of the building that serves as our base. It's crafted as a large pagoda. "Hello idiots. I see you've met our security measures. This base is surrounded by what is more known as an air barrier. Works similar to the prank I used last night. How's the blonde?" I peer down into the cage and see the heads form the night before and a strange creature that looked like something made by the predecessor of my fruit."Captain what is that thing?" It looks like a miniature version of Big Mom." We all cringe at that, though she'd been dethroned from her status as an Emperor for quite some time the mental image of her still lingers on most pirates minds. No matter how many things we've seen and subsequently fought she is still the most ugliest and creepiest of them all. It felt so good to take her down and take her place which landed me with the title as the youngest Emperor in years."Mr. Potter could you be so kind as to let us out of this cage? We only came here to talk, and speaking of can you give us our brooms back?"A confused look went across the faces of me and my men and I looked towards the guards as they held up broken pieces of wood which upon further inspection were brooms. Looks like they used the biggest stereotype of their kind and used flying brooms to get here. "You can have your brooms back, not that it'll do you much good as the barrier tore them to shreds, but I'm curious, why are you asking for help from someone who's not here? That's not my name so I'd appreciate it if you don't call me that. That might've been my birth name but I have a new family. Let them out, but keep them outside."Raigo my helmsman tore open the bars to the cage and let them out. The disgruntled bunch was not happy at being treated in such a disrespectful manner. "Don't give me that look, on this ship your rank doesn't matter. On a pirate ship the captain's word is law. Now then why don't you tell us why you've intruded on my base. I was trying to be nice last night when your student pissed me off." I say addressing the last part to the woman who looked like she could be Akainu's grandmother. She certainly has the height and scowl to look the part."We came here because you still haven't released my student from the wall after your childish stunt last night. You are to remove her at once and then prepare to face disciplinary action for this stunt and hope that we don't decide to take action for acting like such in a neutral zone. This tournament was meant to be a way to promote peace between countries.' For ticking me off again, I shut her into the cage and put the door back on the cage and made sure it'd stay shut tight proven when she tried to break herself out."Don't even try, that cage is made of a metal so strong that even giants aren't able to destroy/break it. Using training I've been able to manipulate it through much difficulty. That metal nullifies Devil Fruit powers. Our only weakness is the sea and that metal gives off the same energy as the sea.""Mr. Monkey you will release her at once and apologize for disrespecting a headmistress." I laughed dead in the face of the old lay as though it was obvious that she has a position of command in the school, but as I stated earlier only I have power on this ship.Having had enough I picked her up and levitated her over the edge of the island. "Better talk fast old man. I don't think captain has enough patience left for any more nonsense. First answer this question, what is that thing?"Looking down at the strange creature that appeared with them which I'd forgotten in all the chaos I notice that it was for some reason bowing at us. "Sorrys for not introducing meself earliers. Pirate masters. My name is Dobby a house elf in service of Professors Whiskers and Kitty. There are many like me who do all the work and maintenance around the school. Professor Giant askeded me to come alongs and use my magic as intimidation." Decided to be funny and give the House Elves terrible speech patterns so I'll be misspelling things on purpose sometimes. "Oh I see. They're the human slaves of the Celestial Dragons, who are the nobles of our world.""Mr. Monkey I implore you to let them go. I understand they've offended you in some way or another but I ask of you to give them a second chance."Begrudgingly I decided to agree with him. "Fine I'll give them another chance. Tomorrow. Now then you've wasted my time with your ridiculous antics so I'm only gonna say this once. Get off of my base immediately. I know the three of you used brooms to get here but this little guy used a different method. If he can get himself up here I'm sure he can get you out."I turned away to go back to breakfast and meet up with dad and the others and try to figure out a way to get back home when the professor called me out again. "Wait Mr. Monkey, i have something for you. It's a letter inviting you to this school. If you'd please take it.""YO HO HO HO.""What the hell is that?" said the giant in the cage staring as Brook jumped onto the spot of land in front of us."Greetings everyone. Harry your parents sent me to come get you." Staring at the fact that there was a skeleton with an afro in front of them they were in the same state as they were last night with the letter halfway towards me. I was abut to grab it when Brook held me back."What's wrong Brook?""I sense that the letter is cursed." Brook cut it up using his sword but the minute he did it disappeared."Liars." Seeing what the old man tried to do to their captain everyone grabbed their weapons seemingly out of nowhere and pointed it at the old man with Reila growling at him showing her overprotective side."Wait Mr. Monkey I'm telling you, we only had the most cordial intent, it was meant as a last resort in case you were unwilling to free Ms. Delacour.""How ridiculous, trying to talk to a pirate about cordiality. You've overstayed your welcome. Get off my ship. Due to your misdeeds you've now prolonged her punishment. The elf can say but you must leave immediately." I released the effect of my powers on the old bat and opened the door but seeing as they won't stop pissing me off I slammed them all into the cage and lifted it up and dumped them out making sure they landed on the bleachers hard."If they try to come back blast them out of the sky. I have a feeling that they'll try again. Let's go Brook." I turned to see the skeleton had ditched when things started getting intense. "Damn cowardly skeleton."It was around lunchtime and I was leaving the Sunny to go explore the grounds with Reila when suddenly I was surrounded by angry as I recently learned French people pointing sticks at us. "Can I help you ladies. Just so you know I don't take well to people pointing weapons at me." I say bristling at the fact that everyone in this school has threatened me in various ways ever since I set foot here. I tug on my cloak as I was wearing the same thing I was last night. I like to wear suits and the color red."Release our champion or face our wands.""Never gonna happen. Besides why are you so adamant on that? From what I observed last night none of you were particularly happy about her being picked instead of you. School pride and everything. Reila."She went on sentry mode which worked on scaring them well enough to clear a path which let us walk through. "Let's go to the school and see that elf we met earlier. Duck." We hit the ground as a spell washed over us. I felt something was over us like it was trying to pull us in. Something similar to Conqueror's Haki but different."You pissed off the wrong pirate. I took down the strongest woman in my world and took her place just little over a year ago." I used Conqueror's Haki and knocked them all out."To the kitchen. I was able to get my hands on a map earlier." By get I meant stole from some cranky old man with a cat. It shows everyone where they are at all times in the castle.We followed the map only to find ourselves in front of a painting of a weird looking pear. Instead of just standing around looking like idiots or waiting for someone to walk by I decided to summon that nice elf from before. "Dobby can you help us out?" As soon as I was done saying that he appeared with a quiet pop."Hows can I help mister pirate and talking kitty?" I snickered at that and filed it away for later. As a pirate I loved collecting blackmail as it only made it easier to steal from targets. A skill I picked up from Nami."We were looking for a place to eat without having to go into that room we were in last night.""Oh I can helps yous with that. Your sister and monkey dad are here as well." That doesn't surprise me in the slightest. Knowing her she'd already tracked down its location the second we set foot in this strange place.The door opened and inside was a massive kitchen, even bigger than mine which was really saying something, which had an army of house elves diligently working hard to cook and prepare hundreds of meals for the greedy wizards upstairs. I spotted my family over in a corner. I had to stifle a laugh as I noticed both my father and sister were sleep eating, if I wasn't so used to it I would've stood their gawking. Me and Reila walked over and pulled up a chair and started digging in to the massive pile.Like bloodhounds, the second we started stealing from their pile they woke up and started gorging themselves. I may not have picked up their extremely insane eating habits but I did get a large appetite so I can eat almost as much as them but I don't act like a starving dog despite what my crew says."So son, Brook tells me that you had a confrontation with the heads earlier. Are they still alive?" He asked with all seriousness as he knows what type of temper I have."Yes dad they're still alive just heavily bruised as I dumped them into the bleachers.""You mean on." Said my brat of a sister always trying to correct me."Nope. The bleachers are made of wood. They crashed and destroyed a large portion of it. I recorded it with a transponder snail. I just don't get why they're so insistent on working my nerves. It seems that they're insistent on making me do things their way.""Make sure you keep him sane Reila. You know how he can get. Ooh bigger meat." He stretches his arm when he sees a large piece of goat heading our way and devours it almost whole. After he finishes it he turns to me and asks, "So what're you gonna do about this tournament? I know the only reason you're doing it it because you don't want to lose your clutch but are you really gonna take part in it?"That's a good question. Part of me says I should but the other part is fighting against that seeing as we're only here because a mystery cup said that I had to. "I don't know. I mean it might be interesting but I'd much rather be in the New World fighting Sea Kings. I have a reputation to uphold as the Lord of the Sky. Which my base being so large and with my vast resources and wealth I'm on my way to making it truly mine. I'm glad that it all came with us but still. At least stealth tech we were working on is active. Imagine the reactions to seeing the whole thing. They looked ready to piss themselves at the sight of the home island."We all laughed at this. In the fashion of my predecessor I've created a massive base for me and my crew free of the nuisance of the marines. And after scaring the hell out of some Cipher Pol agents it is officially recognized as an independent nation."My boy I really hope we may be able to have a civil conversation this time. I promise this time absolutely not tricks. I just wanna talk." I didn't need to turn around to know who it was. The growling at my feet was even more of a dead giveaway."Fine. But be forewarned just because I'm surrounded by meat and my baby sister doesn't mean that I won't react.""Look the reason that I tried to use that charmed letter on you earlier which sent away Mr. Skeleton's sword which I had returned to him. Look the letter was real. It was an invitation to join this school. Students names are put down at birth, and your name is on the list which is why I knew you weren't dead. I want you to join this school as a fourth year. Your crew is allowed to join you at mealtimes but other than that not really much else. If you join we can sort you tonight and you can be part of one of the houses and sleep in their dormitory." "Stop, hold it right there. I've been meaning to talk to you about this for awhile now. I'll join your school and take part in classes but I won't be part of the school completely. My crew comes before anything, I'll continue to sleep on my ship, which no one is allowed access to whatsoever unless I invite them myself. Can you please leave so I can get back to my meal, I'll be down for dinner."With that I went back to my meal as I noticed that most of it had been stolen by my not listening family.Smiling slightly he left without another word. Me and my crew were waiting outside the entrance to the Great Hall to be called in as we'd been instructed by the old lady who I learned earlier was called McGonagall. "What is taking them so long boss? I want to eat something. We've been here for ages.""Just be patient men, eventually they'll call us in. But I'm with you on that, you'd think with all the begging they had to do to get us here they'd be a little more speedy. Especially since once it's over I agreed to let the french off the wall.I'm broken out of my reverie as I hear my name being called."Now then please hold your stomachs as tonight we are to have the sorting of one Harry D.Monkey."Me and my crew walk in to boos from the french and stares and whispers from the Hogwarts students. I spot my family at the table in the far back which had clearly been extended to allow the 11 of them which includes my sister."Mr. Monkey if you would please step up and place this hat on your head, we can get this sorting underway."I walked up to the stool and sat as McGonagall placed a patched, old hat on my head. I felt something enter my mind and something speak to me. 'Welcome young Monkey. No need to worry I'm the Sorting Hat. Let's take a peak inside your head. Oh my there is a lot of potential here. I see intelligence, courage, loyalty, and cunning, Young man you are one of the few who've shown potential for all four houses. But oh my, I can see it now. Your most redeeming trait is your loyalty. Loyal to your family and crew, you'd die for both. I see it'd better be:
'
Hufflepuff.'
At that people were shocked. Looks like once again people were expecting something completely different of me. I walked over to the yellow and black banner where I noticed someone waving me over.'Seems like things will be heating up again very soon.' I think to myself as my crew cheers for me in the silent hall.
If only people would stop expecting me to be what they think life would be so much easier.

Lost Potter Return
I was quite surprised by what I saw when I looked at the paper which had been delivered by Dobby who I recently hired, earlier this morning. Being the son of the Pirate King as well as an Emperor I'm used to this kind of thing but that doesn't make me any less annoyed. I decided to read it to see what they put. I do wonder who gave them permission to use my name in this manner.
This reporter was surprised to learn that the long presumed dead Harry Potter has returned to us on what as eyewitnesses has reported as the what appears to be a floating island. Clearly driven mad by the loss of his family at a young age he has led himself to believe that he has spent all this time in another dimension being raised by criminals and is one himself. I know that I speak for everyone when I say that he should be taken away from these people and turned over to St. Mungos for psychiatric care.
Not even bothering to read the next word I tore up the disgusting piece of dribble. I swear whoever wrote this better pray I don't meet them down a dark alley."Boss, you've got some guests. It's the heads, they say they have a request for you." I follow him out to the deck where the heads are but am confused seeing the dungeon bat and midget teacher. Sprout and McGonagall I expected but not the two of them. Doesn't make sense for those two to be here since if they're asking for a favor they have no reason for being here."What are you two doing here? Sprout as my head and McGonagall since she's the deputy Head, but you two have no reason or authority to be on my ship. I've made it clear that no one no matter what standings or reasons are allowed on my ship without my express permission. Now tell me this, why are any of you here in the first place and who authrized this pathetic excuse of a paper?"Before they could retort the next thing anyone hears is "Gum Gum Rocket" and an arm attaches to the top of the Pagoda and suddenly my family comes crashing in. Quite literally as they crash into the ground. "Has had his Devil Fruit his whole life yet still sucks at landing." I mutter to myself as they pick themselves out of the hole."Oi stick people tell me where I can find the disgusting reporter who wrote this crap so I can kick her ass. How dare they say that about my family. Harry is my son and no one is gonna take him away from me." Sighing dejectedly but not disagreeing Hancock gave the back of his head a good slap to get him to calm down."I'm with dad on this. There's no way you stupid stick wavers are taking my big brother away from me. I'll fight whoever I have to in order to keep him away from you." Showing her rarely seen overprotective side Nana voiced the same thing we all were thinking."Ms. Monkey just calm down. The headmaster has assured us that he'll talk to Fudge about it. The reporter who wrote it, Rita Skeeter does this to everyone but she's gone too far this time. Now then onto the reason we're here this morning is,""Cut the crap Pomona, we're not here asking about anything. Listen up you spoiled brat, we came here to tell you to immediately move this deplorable hubble of a rock at once. We need this field for the tournament and your stupid over sized glorified rock is in our way. I don't expect a stupid brat like you to understand but you need to do so now."Okay now I'm pissed, screw the pact. I drew my sword and am about to activate it when my mother beats me to the punch and kicks him in the ribs causing that area of his body to turn to stone. Won't kill him but it'll hurt like hell. To add fuel to the fire I stuck his arms in a chicken dance position and his wand to his nose. I'm not Trafalgar Law but I do take after him in devilish Devil Fruit powers sadistic ways."Never disrespect me again stupid bat." I slashed his shoulder with an air blade and then kicked him in the face knocking him out. "Be glad I didn't use my Lux as that would've hurt you even worse. Luxes are the special weapons of my crew. We all have our own personal ones that we got from Asterisk Island. Mine is the most are as I'm it's first and only wielder. Now then is someone going to actually ask me or just act like a stupid bitch and act like they can demand anything from me."I start to walk away seeing everyone hesitating. "Wait Mr. Monkey." My head of house called out to me in her usual respectful manner. Hufflepuff loyalty pride for ya."Please forgive the rudeness of my colleague? The reason for us being here today is to ask if you would kindly move your base from the field. We're planning on using it for the first task so for the time being could you place it somewhere else?"I thought about it, not really that big of a deal as i was planning to do that anyways. I'm sick of people trying to spy/sneak on my ship. "Fine. I was planning on doing that anyways. Despite my warning people are still trying to sneak onto my ship. My defenses have a three part package which is what I used against my predecessor Big Mom. I'll have the ship moved by about the end of the week, with all the stealth tech we're using I can't afford to do it further. Now leave my ship at once as I've already stated none of you are ever welcome here. If you'd like I could have my dad bring you down."Seeing the family grin on his face they panicked and called the elf that brought them there and after picking up the still unconscious Snape remembering to hand me my schedule they were about to leave when I reminded them of another thing I wanted to talk to them about."Wait, I almost forgot that I have another thing I wanted to talk to you lot about. I assume that you all got my notes and snails. For those who haven't read the notes yet let me tell you as I know the other professors can hear me, the snails each of you received are automatic transponder snails. Throughout my time at this detestable institution there are times where I won't be able to be in class so these are set to automatically record during the times where I won't be able to take part. They'll automatically record the classes when I would normally be there but not and send the feed back to the control room for later. That is all."With that they finally left. "Bout time. Hey baby sister are you gonna join in on training today? We've got about an hour and a half until breakfast. We're just doing laps today because of the time crunch."officially she's just a normal citizen who happens to be raised by pirates but unofficially she's my navigator whose skills are on par with Nami."Yeah big brother I'll be joining you. Someone's gonna have to help you out old man. Looks like all this time here has made you soft." She stuck her tongue out at me and ran off to get changed."Come on men there's only five more laps to go until we break for water." I yell at them as I finish the last lap and wait for them along with the stragglers who joined in at about half way through. Mostly Durmstrang with one or two Hogwarts. I laugh as I see my sister struggling a bit. The reason why I'm holding back is because of the time crunch, normally I would take it easy after a while of non action but since we can't exactly start going into combat training at the moment this is the only option."Whose getting slow baby sister? A little longer and you look like you would've pulled an Uncle Zoro and get lost just to get out of training."Through her panting she was able to muster up the energy to glare at me and throw a rock at my head which was easy to dodge even without using Haki.The rest of the men started trickling in and as they grabbed the water I had brought down. Just to have a little fun I made sure there was enough for the men but not enough for the extras."Good work today everyone. Let's head back to the house base and reattach so we can go shower and change before breakfast. We'll start combat training on the field later tonight once dinner's over. Oh and Nana before I forget Dad says he has some news for us so he wants to meet with him after lunch. Today I want you and Ralix with me during classes. The rest of you split into two groups. One will do research and the other will stake out the town. I heard about near the train station."Aye aye." As we headed back to the house ship ignoring the extras nearly passed out on the lawn we headed back up to prepare for breakfast. As we went through I sensed a great annoyance in my future. I don't know what it is but I do know that it might make me draw my weapon.This world might not know about Luxes but what's great about mine is that I'm the only person whose wielded mine, Wole-Zain. Its power to cut through space is invaluable.As we were walking towards the entrance to the Great Hall we heard lots of talking which must've meant that it already filled up with people. Some of my men were probably there as well.I walked in and immediately when I did it got as silent as the grave. Probably because of my threat on the night of my sorting.
Flashback
"Listen up stick people because I'm only gonna say this once. Although I may be sorted that doesn't mean I'm a part of this school. I'm not here to make friends, I'm only here because i have to be. I'm a pirate and proud of it. Mess with my crew and you deal with me. Under no circumstances is anyone allowed on or near my ship without my express permission. Get on my nerves enough and I skewer you."
They all just stare blankly in shock with no idea of what to say or do. They didn't even realize that during my little speech I released the stupid french and she was limping and a bit hunched over as she walked up from the antechamber.
Flashback End
I fiddle with my activation jewel which brings out my secondary weapon. I have three forms of combat which come at both close combat and range. What makes things even better is with permission I've made the locations I got them from part of my base. They've all consented to being part of my island ship and by extension my crew. There's portals all over the ship which allow them to continue with their normal routines. Little Garden 1 & 2 along with Asterisk are just two of the islands which are part of my base. With all the technological advancements which are far beyond that of even the New World.Because of my advancements in research and my Trump Card I've discovered a way to traverse dimensions, mostly to find out where I'm originally from, don't get me wrong I love my family but I've always been curious."Hey captain over here. I saved you a seat." One of my men called me over from the table with a lion over it. I gathered a lot of attention by going to another house's table but I knew I wasn't breaking any rules as I checked."Captain meet the twins. I met them earlier and these guys are hilarious. They're pranks are legendary they're pretty much the prank kings of this school." As I reached my seat there were still a few moments of silence but after awhile things went back to normal."Captain meet Fred and George. Don't other asking which one is which they'll just mess with your head.""Nice to""Meet you""Mr. Monkey.""We have""Some questions for you." they both say at the same time.The one on the left who I'm gonna assume is George said "Is it true that in your world you're one of the strongest due to your strategic skills as well as the militaristic weapons you've gotten from traversing the dimensions?" Why am I not surprised they know about that. Truth to the matter is I'm not the slightest bit mad."Yeah that's true. We've traveled to several dimensions and after a grand success I've added a few of them to my base/crew. It'll make more sense in a week." I wasn't lying because after some light training in what I've been told is known as the Forbidden Forest full of numerous dangerous monsters including gigantic spiders. "It's not only the weapons and army that give me my strength, it's through my own skills and merit that I was able to gain and use them to the level that I do. It's because of those I was able to take on the strongest woman in my world and win.""Minister for the last time you cannot just barge in here like this. At least wait until they finish eating.""Absolutely not Dumbledore, you read the paper, we must do something about this atrocity at once.""Someone's trying to manipulate me again. Fred, George who is it?""Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge. Our father works under him in one of the departments of the ministry. He's most likely here to be seen as doing something by "rescuing" you from a group of criminals, even if they're not of our world.""Men stand down. Time for some entertainment. Reila stay at my side. They may try to attack you. From the data we've collected on this world if something doesn't look fully human to these fools then they attack and even kill on sight. Although this'll be over quickly I'm not taking any chances." I say fiddling with one of the spare Luxes I keep hidden with my cloak. I always have it on when I leave the base. Force of habit you might say, I have it charmed to protect me from all forms of attack so it's a wonderful barrier.At that moment the doors slammed open and in walked a portly short man in a bowler hat and a shorter woman who looked like a frog. "I didn't know there was a Zoan type in this world. Looks like she ate the Toad Toad Fruit." I said it loud enough so that everyoen heard it which caused all the pirates in the hall to burst out laughing.Ignoring the slight on one of his subordinates he strode forward. "You must be Harry Potter I presume. Now then take off that ridiculous cloak and follow me. My name is Minister Fudge. Aurors arrest the two at the table.Semi-reluctantly the aurors moved forward to the table. If they were Mairnes normally I would've attacked them but with my Observation Haki I sensed someone walking through the still open doors to the hall. "Aurors stop at once. I didn't authorize you to do something like this. Cornelius, do not go around thinking that you can boss around my Aurors. Aurors I know that you were just following orders but for your disobedience you are all on temporary leave without pay. I'm sorry for this Monkey family, please know that Fudge tends to do this a lot, even when he knows that he has no authority for something like this Minister or not.""Amelia what're you doing, you read the paper. These people are dangerous criminals who've corrupted the sole survivor of the Ancient and Noble house of Potter. This cannot stand.""Minister I've told you a thousand times that ninety percent of what's in that paper are lies. Even if they are criminals it's out of our jurisdiction. As I told you before we need to try to establish a bit of a relationship with them, who knows what could prosper from this collaboration.""Funny enough one part of that paper is true. Where we're from we're some of the most wanted people in our world. Long story short pirates exist, I found a legendary treasure in the most dangerous part of the whole world and became Pirate King. My whole family has a bounty minus my daughter. Harry is captain of his own crew and became recognized by the government of our world known as the World Government as one of the Emperors, the four strongest pirate captains who rule the part of the sea we were at when we left known as the New World. Weirdly enough he got that rank at the age of 12."That left them flabbergasted. "Excuse me Mr. Monkey but it sounds as if you expect us to believe that a mere 12 year old child could hold the position of adults. That's preposterous." said the pink toad."Knew you'd say that. Hence why I brought this along with me." I reached into my cloak and pulled out my wanted poster:
WANTED
SPACE MAN HARRY
BOUNTY:
1,000,000,000
They all stared shocked at the fact that a 14 year old could be worth so much. After causing a few spells Amelia verified that it was in fact very real."In my world there are objects called Devil Fruits, there's three categories without going into too specific detail one makes you made of an element. For example there's one too that if you eat makes your body Lava." We all shuddered at that. "With one exception there's not much that can harm them without the opposing type. There's another one which makes you turn into an animal like an elephant and vice versa sorta. But also objects as well, don't ask. There's also a mythical category with things like Buddha and Phoenix. Last one is the miscellaneous category where everything else falls. Mine allows me to make objects float and because of a power up people. It says no matter what until I will it not to hence my bounty and other reasons. Now if you'll excuse me I have food to be getting back to."I was about to walk away when Fudge made the stupid mistake of grabbing my wrist. "Hold it right there Mr. Potter you are coming with us right this instant.""He shouldn't have done that." Stated by every pirate in the room and my men who were closest to me back towards the nearest wall."Frog Grapple" With that Fudge, the toad and the people he tried to get to arrest me wound up stuck upside down in the rafters. Not in a way that could kill them by leaving them up there too long, just in a way that makes it extremely uncomfortable. "You'll stay up there until I feel you've learned your lesson, or I feel like it whichever comes last. Now if you'll excuse me I've got lessons to get to."I walked out of the hall with Ralix and Nana following suit with my father taking this opportunity to steal all the meat from people as they weren't paying attention to him only to the sites of the stills struggling minister and his cronies.I hate the fact that I was right about that being a massive headache. When are these people gonna to learn when to leave me alone. I wish I'd done that sooner, he insulted my pride as a pirate and tried to boss me around. For that the next time we meet I won't be merciful.Looks like I finally found a way to have some fun in this world. This'll be good.
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
And Lo, A Fight Shall ComeI was walking around the grounds as I had a bit of a break after double Transfiguration and lunch so I decided to go for a stroll and hope that I don't get ambushed again. "Captain wait up." One of my subordinates Elliot Forster called out to me probably asking for a spar."Hello Elliot, I'm surprised to see you down from base so quickly. Need something from me?""I wanted to ask you for a quick spar. It's been forever since we've had combat training that I wanted to make sure I wasn't getting rusty in my sword skills.""I'll take you up on that offer my young friend. Though you may be top of your school do not forget I'm your captain and my skills are above yours. To make this fair I"ll use a watered down version of my Lux." I say as I activate my Lux in a rapier form with him doing the same. When sparing I have a long standing order that whilst in a spar unless I allow it the use of Orga is forbidden.After doing a few practice swings and spinning it around in my hand I got into my battle stance. "Don't forget by the way we have battle practice tonight and I want all squads to participate. Use of Orga form will be allowed. Now then, come at me with all you got." We charged at each other starting with a standard slash."Come on, really come at me." He charges at me again and I parry his sword strikes. I can tell he's been improving as his movements are swifter and closer. I jump back as he tries to go for a kick. I notice a tree further a further back so I use the trunk to launch myself forward and try an overhead slash fakeout and then kick him in the face landing behind him and put him in a headlock with my sword at his throat."Looks like you win boss.""Don't sell yourself short Elliot. You lasted longer than last time and your swordplay has gotten much better, I could tell the moment we started. Besides you did catch me off guard, I only stopped when I felt it touch my skin slightly, point to you my boy."We looked down at the small dagger aimed at my stomach. We both deactivated our weapons and stepped back and shook hands. I looked down at my watch and noticed I had about ten minutes before I had potions with batman. "Gotta go, see ya later tonight. I gotta go mess with a bat." I waved goodbye to him and headed for the dungeons. After all the stress I"ve had to endure over the last few days I needed this spar which was probably why he challenged me to it. As I was walking I saw some of my men talking with the twins, probably discussing another prank. As pirates messing around with pretty much everyone and joking around is pretty much in the job description. As an Emperor's crew we sometimes forget to have fun so it's moments like this we live for. "Today we are working on a transformation potion. The instructions are on the board and none of you are to help the new students. You have til the end of class." What an ass, doesn't provide any safety gear at all or anything besides instructions and vague statements. One thing that's for sure is he's setting me up for fail, clearly still not happy about earlier. I know my mom released the effects of her fruit but he's still super grouchy, much like a certain vampire slaying subordinate of mine. I picked up him and his group after they defected from their military when their leaders tried to butcher them. We've managed to steal some of the stuff they use for their weapons and soon we'll start testing people. I'm not expecting everyone to be compatible but you never know."Alright you two grab the ingredients and I'll write down the instructions.Everyone did as instructed and soon we got instructed. Observation Haki sure comes in handy when your teacher wants you to fail for the sole purpose of harassment and has his students try to sabotage you.It was close to the end of class and we were adding the last steps, and just when we were bottling it up I sensed that the cauldron behind us was about to explode. I quickly bottled up two samples and told my partners to duck under the table and I covered myself with my captain's cloak as I straight up refuse to use the school uniform.There was a faint BOOM and then everything within a 20 foot radius got covered in the failed potion. Which was the contents of my cauldron and two people who were next to the fool that caused the explosion."Longbottom you fool, how do you always manage to destroy my cauldrons? Oh my Mr. Potter it looks like we'll have to clear yours out as well." Unbelievable, if there was an award for bad acting he'd win. The only reason I"m in his class of Gryffindors and Slytherins is because my schedule is not fully developed yet."No problem professor, I knew that the cauldron was about to explode so I took two samples just before." Well that ends my classes for today so now its time to meet up with dad before dinner. "Here you go batman. Oh and don't even try breaking the bottles, they're charmed to be unbreakable." I walked out ignoring his growling and muttering.I can't wait to see what dad has in store for me. "Ah there you are son, how were classes?""As expected the bat was insufferable but transfiguration will be useful. Even though I wouldn't normally be put in the middle of the crossfire classes I'm still dropping it. I'll have Dobby retrieve the transponder snail and wipe Snape's memory of the snail so he doesn't try anything. Now then father you said there was something you wanted to talk to me about.""Oh yeah, your sister already knows so I'll get straight to the point. This morning we had a breakthrough." I was surprised by that as everyone's been working nonstop with no luck. "Early this morning Bartolomeo contacted us through a transponder as he was trying to give a report on the status of Fish Man Island. We're not sure how, but he was able to get through to us but not the other way around though. I've given the Grand fleet transponder to your men so that if anyone else calls they can try to get a reading.That was great, no doubt they'll have the data soon so we can at least be ready to leave immediately when the third task is over. "I'm sorry father that we can't get home the normal way. SInce we don't know how we got here we can't risk using the usual methods for fear of something going wrong.""It's alright son I know you'll figure it out. robin and your team should be able to find something soon."I got a depressed look at that as I just go the bill. "Why I thought it was a good idea to send a bunch of pirates to a village when I knew there was a bar yet had forgotten about it is beyond me. Remind me to pull a Xinglou later. Oh yeah how's Franky doing with the whole forced pants thing?" After scarring the entire population of three schools and adults for life he's been given a permanent pants order."He's Frnaky. He's still crying over it." We both laugh and sigh at that as he's too melodramatic for his own good.We head up on deck to continue when we see some strange looking men appear followed by the headmaster. "How can we help you Mr. Whiskers and mystery men?" I chuckle by my father's absolute refusal to address anyone by their actual name."Mr. Monkey I've told you a thousand times to call me Albus or Dumbledore at least. These men are here about the minister. It seems he stil hasn't returned to the ministry.""Oh that's easy to expxlain. See I dolled out my special brand of punishment on him. He and his cronies tried to arrest my parents and kidnap me so they've been making friends with the bats for the day. Don't worry I'll let them down soon, if I feel like it."That got them on edge and they pointed their wands at me. Then a bald black guy stepped forward. "You are to release the minister at once. For attacking the minister you are to come with us for questioning.""If you think pointing weapons at me is suopposed to be intimidating then you are sorely mistaken. This is a daily occurrence for me, now then your minister will be returned to you when he is so for now stop worrying. He'll be unharmed, probably starving but unharmed. If you wanna do your job then you can sleep in the great Hall as I'll release him once breakfast is over. Now then I've got a combat session to get to. Don't even try following me. See you tomorrow dad."With that I flew back to my base, ignoring the shouts from the aurors to come back. Today should be fun. I'm having all groups participate and go full out. I think I'll use my secondary weapon today. Oh yeah I almost forgot that she'll be watching today. Good for her, I know she's been depressed lately since she hasn't been able to come down but I promised her that she'll be able to join me after today."Alright then is everyone ready? Remember this is joint training so feel free to go all out. For those of you who racked up all those charges, you'll be against me when we start. Everyone else go against whoever. Time to begin "Hundred on."With that a light flashed over me and then green shoulder guards appeared and my Hundred which like for Emilia is an innocence type. What's unique about my hundred is that I can change into whatever form I choose. My men decide to be brave and rush me all at once so I went into Dragoon mode and decided to be sadistic and blast them all at once. A few managed to dodge and tried again but I used sword mode to finish them off.I stick my arm out when a projectile comes at me. "Nice job sis but you are a terrible distraction." "Seems to work fine to me."I was about to ask what she meant when I looked up as Saya and Claudia came at me from one direction. Behind them were Ikki and Stella. "Nice trick baby sister, time to test that new trick I was working on." I smirk as I feel Moroha starting a charge clearly having finished his fight.I summon my personal circle which is how I do all my magic. "LIght Chamber Full Envelop." I open my eyes as I finish my chant and lines started to encompass the area of my attackers and started closing taking them with me with my shields as they guessed what was happening and soon they were trapepd and as soon as I made sure they couldn't escape I spread my arms out and they were trapped in a light cube."I win again." I turned around and see that everything is finishing up. "Alright everyone that's enough for tonight." I clicked my fingers and six of them were unceremoniously dropped on the ground. "Everyone except the commanders head to your quarters. Me and the commanders are going into the forest. Oh and best prepare for tomorrow. We're dropping the shields. I've said it before and I'll say it again, we have nothing to fear. THey're the ones who are to be afraid.At that everyone yells in agreement, fully supporting me in this as it was this competence which got me where I am. "Alright then off with the lot of you. As for the rest of you, let's see what's so scary about this forest. Time Skip...The next morning me and the other commanders walked into the Great Hall, slightly dirty as we cleaned and repaired our clothes but there was still dirt and blood on us a bit. "Told you there was nothing to fear from the forest." Me and my 8 commanders were grinning as we remember the huge fight against some giant spiders in the forest. We didn't make them extinct but we did get their leader."Mr. Monkey!" A voice screamed from behind us. "Please don't tell me that you and your men weren't running around the forest in the middle of the night.""Well I would but then I'd be lying. You should be thanking us though, we got rid of your spider problem. With the leader gone I don't think you'll be worrying about them for awhile." That caused everyone who was aware that giant spiders were roaming around the forests gasp at the casual way I stated as if they were nothing which they really weren't."You killed Aragog?" Said in a shocked coice which I turned to see it was Hagrid with barely concealed tears in his eyes. "We had no choice Hagrid. We were just planning to explore and he sent his men after us and it escalated from there."He ended up rushing out of the hall almost running us over in his haste. I can see that I might've made a bit of a mistake but honestly I hadn't wanted to kill him. If I hadn't he would've speared Pisti, the fifth division commander.I was about to head to my seat when I hear "Boss look out." And feel a spell slam me in the gut, just barely getting Armament up in time as I knew Iron Body wouldn't really help.I look up to see who it was and see the youngest Weasley, Reggie I think it was, pointing his wand at me. "What the hell Reggie? Why'd you try to hex me." He didn't answer and tried to shoot another one which I caught using my device. Weirdly enough I have two of them. The one I just used is called Judgement Rings. Left absorbs and right throws it back. I was able to improve it though, but I'll use first form this time though out of respect for the twins.I sigh as I bat the next spell away. "Would you quit it with that already and just tell me what's going on already.""Because of what you did to Hagrid. Aragog was his friend and you killed him like it was a game, you damn criminal."'So that's what this is about.' Regardless of his reason this is still an unprovoked attacked and that just won't play. I use Shave and when I'm in front of him I flick him in the head hard enough to knock him and out and as payback putting the energy from those spells, which wasn't much, into it."Now you've gone and ruined my breakfast. Come on men let's head back to the ship and begin final preparations. You can come too if you want Dumbles, you said you wanted to see the hideout and now you can." With that I walked out of the hall with my men and the twins following me.After a second of silence everyone followed suit. With my parents and their crew just shaking their heads and my father stealing everyone's food. "Everything's ready to go captain. Ready when you are."Using my Devil Fruit to keep me and the other casters afloat I began the chant. "Begin. Spread around and envelop. By my command I give you permission to shine upon the world once more. Appear!" Me and the others yell at the same time and then like a curtain rising, the cloaking spells were removed.It was clear that they weren't expecting what they saw. Then again the site of ten giant objects such as ships and islands and pools of water floating around and seemingly attached to each other is a strange sight to behold the first time around."Hey captain.""Bout time captain I was getting bored.""Looks it's the stick people."Those were the general responses from the people who weren't at training last night. Everyone on the various land masses were a part of my crew. I made sure that bystanders would get swept up in the connection as I call it which is when we add a new place."Everyone meet the students of Hogwash school. Where's Shirahoshi?"I say not caring anymore at the gawking students and looked for my fiancee. "Over here captain." I smile as I see my fiance the crowned princess of Fishman Island. After Big Moms defeat I was able to convince Neptune to let me have her hand after proving my worth by beating the former. Using my sisters Matter Matter fruit we were able to shrink her to my size."There you are my queen. Sleep good?""It was fine, would've been better if you didn't run off to fight monsters and leave me all alone." She had an adorable blush on her face as she said that. (Just so things are clear I deaged Shirahoshi so that she's three years older than him)"Come here you." I bring her down for a kiss when a mortar shell flies past us. "What the hell?" I yell as it explodes harmlessly against the shields."Down there." I look down and see at least two dozen marines. "What the hell? How'd they get here? They must've followed our trail. Nevermind that, keep the students safe while I deal with the pest problem."They nod their heads and while the crew prepared defenses in case someone tried something the commanders went down to corral the crowd."Well if it isn't Captain Chikyu. Surprised to see you here, though I can sense that this is only a temporary chat. Your Devil Fruit is going haywire and soon you'll be booted back to our world, but fortunately the same can't be said for your men though."Captain Chikyu, my biggest stalker within the marines who ate the Earth Earth fruit. Giving her the power to manipulate the ground and various relatable things such as plants and certain animals."Damn you Space Man, you have three seconds to tell me what's going on here.""I don't know honestly. You must've picked up on our dimensional trail and ended up here. Luckily for you the rebound is about to happen and can leave but I'm stuck here for awhile. Lucky for me you won't remember any of this."Before she could respond she was knocked out with a blunt arrow tipped with memory erasing potion which is what we were working on earlier this week. Before she hit the ground the rebound sent her back but left her men who were shaking in fear, and rightfully so. I am an Emperor, young or not so of course they'd fear me."Don't be scared me he's just a child." Bad move I hate being called that."But sir he's an Emperor, we don't stand a chance against him.""I don't care, Emperor or not he's still a pirate and it's ourjob to take him down.""How cute, Reila." I casually say and she slashes the two marines dropping them dead on the ground."Oh no its the second division commander, Yin Yang Reila!""Don't worry she's just the lookout, your real opponent is me. But don't worry this'll be quick. Now Wole-Zain." I summon my Lux and charge at them as they do the same. I quickly cut through their weapons as I'm holding back so as to not cause civilian damage. Reila's got my back as she takes care of those trying to sneak attack since even with my Haki ti's still possible to catch me slightly off guard if they're lucky."Reila get clear, time to end this." As she jumped up and out of the way I stuck my sword into the ground, cutting down another marine and slicing another shell and their two cannons in half, and then the ground started shaking and the soldiers were swallowed up by cracks that appeared in the ground. I sigh as I hear their voices go out."CAPTAIN!" Shirahoshi says as she hops from her water bubble into my arms. Before we can get too comfortable the teachers come back to their senses."WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED?!"
This was gonna be a long morning.
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
Apologies and RevelationsAfter the whole debacle in the Great Hall with the spiders last week I was feeling very guilty. I didn't mean to hurt Hagrid honestly, but if I hadn't stepped in then I would've lost one of my crew. My crew is my family and I can't afford to lose any of them. I understand that the same must be for Hagrid so I've made agreements or him. Apis tells me that it should be ready for today."Monster.""You should go back to your floating world.""Leave us alone.""You should just die."These were just some of the numerous things that have been thrown at me since the incident. With the first task coming up in two weeks I can't afford to be distracted by all this nonsense. "Captain, it's ready." APis said as I was resting on a chair on the deck."Let's go then." She said as she handed me an egg. Hopefully it works, although my sources are shifty but people but nonetheless this should work, I hope."Come on Hagrid, please come out. I promise that I'm not trying to hurt you, I have something to make it up to you. Just give me a chance.""Go away. You've hurt me enough."Screw formalities. "Ralix open the lock but don't break the door."Using his Devil Fruit he opened the door. Hagrid backed away in shock as his door suddenly opened and he aimed an umbrella at us.I hold my hands up in surrender to show I didn't mean any harm. "Hagrid please hear us out. I am sorry for killing the spider but I am sorry for hurting you. So as an apology I did some digging and brought you a gift. You see on the mountainous area of my island there are special creatures who are rarely seen. After gaining their trust they came to live with us. Once they die they're like a phoenix and get reborn so we brought one here."As soon as I said that the egg started shaking and Hagrid crept closer and once he was about a few feet away from me the egg hatched and out popped a baby millennial dragon. "The twins told me how much you've always wanted a dragon and since we have some on our hideout I thought that I'd bring you one as an apology. Here he's all yours."I hand him the dragon as he diligently takes it and you can see it starting to imprint on him. "Thank you Harry. This makes me so happy. I forgive you for Aragog, I understand now that you were just trying to protect your crew. I think I'll name ya Aragog II."With a smile and a wave we walked out. Pirates we may be but we're not the people who enjoy deliberately harming people. We're like my father's mentor Shanks, we're pirates yet at the same time we do not good as well."Glad that's over with. Time to move on with the plan. Everything should be ready. Our crew inside the ministry and the bank are ready to move on my command. Those marines from the other day worry me. I've done a check and only that group appeared and it seems that if there'll be more o them then they'll end up here like us. Not like they'll be a problem as they're just stupid marines but if any of the higher ups appear then I'll be concerned.""Don't worry boss things'll be alright. By the way I think I know of a way to tell when people'll show up. I set up everyone's personal Den Den Mushis to go off when the signal appears.""How will we be able to tell the difference between a usual warning and the apparition warning?""Don't worry you'll know. I set it in a different tone.""GUAH GUAH GUAH!" I look down as the snail on my wrist go off."Like that." It took a few seconds for us to realize what was going on."UH OH!" We both say at the same time.There was a flash of light over in the courtyard."Let's go. Apis you too."The three of us rush off to the courtyard to fight the invaders.When we got there though we were surprised by who we found. "Harry senpai it's you. We finally found you guys after so long.""Malaia, what are you doing here? I thought you were with your ather." My face scrunches up at my version of Bartolomeo. Like father like daughter."Father told me that you guys went missing a while ago so I followed your last trail and now I'm here. But on the way we got followed by some marines. I think we were able to shake them though."I face palm at that. Knowing her she failed at losing them. "3,2,1.""Freeze pirates.""Caotain look it's Wind Arsenal Monk Ralix, Whisperer Apis, and Space Man Harry, one of the Four Emperors.""Looks like we've got a big haul. Oh look we've also got Bard Malaia, once we catch them we can use them as bargaining against the pirate king. Get them men."I see something coming at us with my Observation Haki and order everyone to get down just as an outstretched leg flies at us. "Gum Gum Whip." Knocking away about half of them."I'll take care of this captain.""Run.""Grand Gattling." Suddenly bullets of sharp air flew at each of the marines, even the ones who'd bene caught by my father earlier.The power of the Wind Wind Fruit is like Baby 5's fruit as he can summon any weapon he chooses. Unless you have a high level o Observation Haki though you can't see it. It works just like a regular weapon only deadlier.I signaled him to stop firing so I could interrogate the captain. "Well then Mr. Captain looks lie you and I are gonna have a little chat." I gain a sadistic smirk as I step up to him."Put him down and back away Mr. Potter." I sigh as I didn't want to be dealing with this right now."Hello Ms. I don't think I caught your name last time. Thank you for dealing with those incompetent Aurors of yours. Oh I see you've brought some more friends.""Mr. POtter you are hereby under arrest under the charge of murder and assault of a pure blood."That little weasel."Look I don't want to fight right now. I have a prisoner to interrogate." Seeing it wasn't gonna work I got on the ground. "Don't say I didn't warn you."Before she could contemplate what I'd just said next thing you hear is, "Step away from my son you heathens. Slave Arrow." Suddennly heart arrows flew at each of them from the forest. My parents know to stay out of my way during a fight but tend to give support from time to time. Soon there were only three people left as they were all too caught off guard to protect themselves."What'd you do to my Aurors?""The Love Love Fruit turns people to stone along with a few other tricks. Now then unless you want to get hurt I suggest you gather your men and leave. Once you do my mother will release her powers, maybe."As I say that my commanders surround her and the other two as well as my father and his crew."I am the head of the DMLE, doing actions such as this is criminal. I have enough to charge each and every one of you.""HAHAHAHA, as if a woman who submits to the will of the pathetic species such as man can presume to command pirates. We're some of the most powerful people in our world though we play on the wrong side of the law, so do you really want to face us?"Seeing they were vastly outnumbered she holstered her wand in defeat. "Madame Bones don't give up we can take them. Most of them are just muggles." A woman who I later learned was Nymphadora Tonks boldly stated although her wand was shaking."Stand down Tonks, we're outnumbered and we don't know what kind of powers they have. It'd be wise to take a strategic retreat while we still can. This isn't over Mr. Potter." With that she activated her emergency portkey and left taking the statues with her."Such a sore loser. Oh look the tool is trying to escape." We see the scared witless marine trying to escape. "Devil." Usopp yelled and he was trapped by his Pop Green which looked like a giant Venus Fly Trap."That is just a sample of my power as the Greatest Sniper in the world." He started singing his weird Sniper King song again as we noticed the crowd that had gathered. I saw a flash of red making a run for it. I was about pursue when Malaia stopped me."Wait captain, there's something I totally forgot to tell you. The marines are starting to investigate the sudden disappearance of their men. It seems they're starting to link you with them. Soon more and more will start showing up but it looks like it'll take a while before anything like that happens.""That's good to know. You said earlier that your men came with you, did your ship come as well?""Yep it's in the lake.""Good link it up with the island later and I'll brief you there. Now if you'd excuse me I have a rat to chase.""Already got him big brother." Said Nana who was dragging him with green energy ropes. "Let me go you stupid muggle.""Now Ronald, unless you wanna end up like that marine you see over there," I say indicating the still struggling marine, "then answer me this. Why did you try to get me arrested?""I saw you kill those men in cold blood. After what you did to Hagid I realized that a half blood like you shouldn't be allowed to go around like he has free reign of the place.""Oh I see, that's what this is all about." You're jealous." He grew red and vehemently denied it but I could see it in his eyes. "Your brothers told me you have a breathtaking jealousy streak, seeing my base, power, and my fiancé must've driven you a bit overboard. Let him go Nana." She releases him and I help him up and once he's on his feet I backhand him."Grow up. Life is full of unfairness and unjust, I've just learned to get used to it." I walk away having had enough of this."I'm through here. I've made up my mind, no more of this school shit until after the first task. We're going back to the island for training."With that we used Shave and went back to the ship to prepare for the show tonight. Everything is going to plan. This only sped it up slightly."And afterwards we meet in Knockturn Alley located here." I say pointing to a map as I finish hashing out the details for tonight's raid. After sitting on our thumbs for the past week since we got here I decided it was time to get back to doing what we do best, piracy. I decided to do something extremely crazy and yet so much fun at the same time. "Remember no killing anyone, just use these flash bombs and it'll hypnotize everyone. Group 1 is with me and will head to Gringotts to steal all the gold and any valuable non cursed items from every vault including my own and will put them in these bags which are tied to our stash here on the island. Group 2 will go to the ministry and teach them our special brand of justice and steal anything useful, be it information or objects. Let's do some piracy."With that there were yells from my crews of about 4 thousand. Having several items from numerous dimensions comes in handy. We've all grown very close so there's nothing to worry about whenever I go out with them. I trust them with my life."And remember that the parents must not find out. Until they put it in the papers of course." I smirk as that was also a target I gave to Apis and her division. "Let's move out. This is a moment that is sure to go down in history."Is everyone in place?" I whisper into my Den Den Mushi which I kept on my wrist for things like this and it is also connected to the ones used by the commanders as well. I had to make sure everyone was in place otherwise this could go sideways very quickly."All set captain." They each said simultaneously."Begin."With that me and my group took out our grapples and used it to reach the roof. As my intelligence told me there was a meeting today with all the managers so the bank was empty of humans and about a hundred or so goblins were having a meeting in the area where they would normally have the humans waiting. It took a while but we finally cut enough holes in the roof to throw the flash bangs through."Drop the payload." I whisper to the people holding the flash bangs as we all put masks over our eyes as the blinding light was the hypnotic spell.Several seconds later we hear a lot of groaning and soon lots of thuds. Once I was sure that everyone had been affected me and the others dropped in.They were all unconscious since they hadn't been given a command yet. "Come on everyone get up. You'll each be merging all the vaults in the bank into three separate vaults and once that's done you'll be unconscious until morning and won't remember a thing."Once the command was given they started chanting in a strange language and the whole building started shaking and after twenty minutes it finally stopped."It has been done master. The other levels are no more. The residential areas still exist but all the vaults have converged to one point which is just beyond that door.""Good, and what of the dragons?""I suspect that it might start going out of control from all the noise.""Excellent. Your job is done now." To add extra effect even done I already queued it into the command chain I decide to blast them with Conqueror's Haki as a bonus."Team 1 with me to take care of the dragons. Everyone else clear the weapons and priceless jewels vault and then once you're done with that join in on the lower levels. We'll steal the gold once we finish up. I have a hunch that the dragon is guarding something previous, and as pirates it's our job to steal it."We broke off to do our jobs. I had my sister with me as her powers will be crucial in this attack. Though there is only one it'll take a lot of effort in order to take it down."Cosmic Bind" She said as she used the power of the Matter Matter Fruit to tie it down using green chains of light which appeared from the wall and brought it to the ground.Her fruit allows her to create any object she pleases but it's made of light and not actually created although it has the effect of the actually object itself."Keep back from it but attack it with everything you got." This is why I took the long distance attackers as I knew we'd have to take the dragon down. "Hundred on" I activated my hundred Yggdrassil as I hear others do the same and bring out their Luxs and Blazes."We need to take it down quickly otherwise we'll run out of time before we take our prize." I push my arms out in front of me and my cannons blast it with explosive magic as a distraction and I see the others do the same. As soon as we see that it was starting to get agitated the long range attackers jumped back and the close range fighters moved in for a frantic assault."Captain, it's thoroughly distracted go." This was another part of my plan. I purposefully ordered everyone to hold back on their attacks so I can sneak off and steal the prize kept deep within goblins caverns is my target, the Staff of Merlin."I'm proceeding with the next stage of the plan. Once I give the signal kill it and head back up."I feel my transponder snail start to ring and I pick up the receiver and Apis speaks to me through it. "Captain our part of the plan is done, the Daily Prophet is yours. Rita Skeeter has been captured as well.""Excellent, right on schedule. Head back to the base immediately. Keep my parents in the dark for awhile longer so they don't start snooping. They always muck up my plans when they think I'm going overboard.""To be fair all your plans are a bit overboard." I glare at the snail as I know that she can see it as I hang up."HALT! Humans are not allowed passage." Heavily armored Goblin guards appeared and pointed spears in my face. "You know I really detest weapons being pointed at me.""How'd you get in here this is a restricted area, goblins only?""Nighty night." I knock them out once again. As I said I wouldn't be killing anyone, minus the lizard."My lord I have come to back you up." Yuuhi, younger brother of Akira who works with Mina one of my commanders, said as he appeared out of nowhere. Yuuhi was assigned to me as one of my personal guards."That won't be necessary Yuuhi but I appreciate it nonetheless. It's only a little bit further. We should hurry though as I sense the others are getting impatient with having to hold back so much. Then again that's what i get for having a bunch of hhot headed teenagers work at my side."As we enter the final chamber where the staff is stored we're surrounded by several goblins riding wyverns. "Looks like it's time to break the promise. I ordered no killing but that doesn't mean i was planning to keep it. Cover my 6 Yuuhi, I'll take care of the brunt of their forces." I decided to be a bit flashy and take out most of them with a single attack. This attack is very dangerous so some of them might die due to the roughness of the walls of the cavern so they might get crushed on impact.I summon my second device, Ryuuzume, which is in the form of a Nodachi. "Wind Barrier" I say as I rush forward and when I'm in roughly the center of their fores and as they were converging on me I stabbed the ground, creating a massive tornado which sucked them all in. After a few seconds I released it and they were forced out and impacted with the walls, most of them ended up being crushed as I earlier surmised and died on impact."I'm counting on you Yuuhi." I rush forward and abruptly stopped as I reach the patch of rock which is where the staff was sticking out of. "So this is the legendary Dragon Staff used by Merln himself during Arthurian times."I grasp the handle of it and pulled it out without any fanfare. I can feel it hum with power. Magic has always been my angle in the pirate world, it can magnify my powers as well as my magic circle giving me even more of an edge.I shrink it down to make it wand size. As I see Yuuhi finish off the last guard I nod to him and we rush back to see our forces bring down the dragon. "Mission complete men. Grab the gold and let's head off." Still high on adrenaline they all yell with excitement at their first successful mission after being on hiatus for so long and flew or Moon Walked out."Go with them Yuuhi, I don't want you to get caught up in the blast." He nods and using Moon Walk heads up to the gold vault like everyone else."Now then goodbye Mr. Dragon." By the power of the sun and moon Nova Burst."I attacked with a controlled explosion equivalent to that of a supernova at its weak spot and the cavern walls bringing it down on him. Using Shave I was able to avoid any damage."Has everything been transported?""Yes captain, everything has been stolen.""Good our group at the ministry said they were successful as well and are ready to proceed with the final phase." We'll show the minister why he shouldn't mess with us and why he shouldn't have so many guards at night. I may have said no killing but I gave specific targets on who is not to be attacked in all this carnage.Various people both inside and out of the target locations were brutally attacked on this night. It was a sign to the people of Britain why they should fear us, I left the minister untouched but the same can't be said for his Under Secretary."Let's go back to the Ministry of Magic. It'll be nice to see the fireworks. Make sure to take a picture so we can have it ready for tomorrow's headlines." The purpose of these attacks is to impose fear and send a message. The rendezvous at Knockturn is to pick up a certain hostage. He might be dangerous so it'll only be me and the commanders, even in a weak society dark magic users are nothing to scoff at.
Gringotts Bank Completely Emptied
&
Ministry of Magic Burned to the Ground
This reporter is disturbed to report that last night at roughly 10 pm, both the Ministry of Magic as well as Gringotts were attacked. Various workers were violent attacked and the building was completely burned to the ground, even the lower levels. We have a pure blood household lord who was taken hostage by the perpetrators of the attacks. They forced him to give us a message which we were threatened to report as were attacked as well:
"They said that they were sending a message to those who would cross them, no one would be safe no matter who they are or what their rank is."
He then handed us a picure which he said was their way of sending a message. It was the Former Under Secretary of the Minister of Magic, dead.
As usual the newspaper is exaggerating the reports. Aside from the Under Secretary we didn't kill everyone. She was the only deliberate casualty. They're lucky we didn't do anything worse as believe me I wanted to. Since the goblins don't have any memories, I made very sure of that, nothing could link us to them. They're luck we held back as much as we did. I'm not trying to make any enemies while I'm here but I'm not going to stand idly by as they try to slander my name."Mr.Monkey, can I speak to you about something real quick?" A week after the incident and by extent a week before the task I look up to see a voice shakily from behind me.I turn to see-
----- CHAPTER BREAK -----
It's the day before the first task and I am completely prepared but am totally shocked by what it is. Neglecting to mention that I can tell whenever something new enters the surrounding area is the reason why. I can't believe they're having us fight dragons for the first task. I may not know the whole story but whatever it is, says that they're putting a lot of blind faith in their students. Hermione told me that the tournament was cancelled a long time ago because the death tole for this tournament is vey high. I'm not afraid but I'm concerned for the others. I considered the options in helping my fellow Hufflepuff as I'm well aware that the others are in on it as I sensed the Durmstrang and Beauxbatons Heads going into the forest roughly around the time they arrived, so there's no doubt that their champions have become aware of it. Which is why I'm having Hermione do it in as discreet a manner as possible."Captain, Hermione radioed in, it's done.""Thank you AKira. Send in Ralix and Yuuhi." They're my most trusted advisers and have proven themselves many times in battle. Ralix is my first mate and Yuuhi is my best friend."You wanted to see us captain.""Yes, I wanted to hear your opinion about two very important mattes.""Does this have anything to do with tomorrow's task captain?""No. The first is with a Ravenclaw I met not too long ago. Her name is Luna Lovegood. I want her to be guarded." They gasped in shock and rightly so, although I don't outright hate them, the people of this world have been getting on my nerves constantly. "Hold your questions, I've been observing her for awhile now and from what I've seen I don't like it. I want you to send three men to tail her. If you can convince him have Wolfgang send a few members of the Earth Clan if at all possible."They nodded in agreement as they could see the possibilities of such an action and they've been noticing some of the things I have as well. "Next is the Hogwarts Itter Alliance." This surprised them even more as this as brought up not too long ago by Hermione Granger herself.
Flashback
"Mr. Monkey can I speak to you about something real quick?" A week after the incident and by extent a week before the task I look up to see a shakily voice from behind me.
I turn to see Hermione Grange, a Gryffindor although from what I've been told should be for all intents and purposes a Ravenclaw.
"What can I help you with Ms. Grange?" I ask politely because from what I've seen she doesn't show any disdain from me or my men and sometimes I catch her conversing with Reila about our world but she's never approached me directly before.
"Is there anywhere we can talk in private?" I consider it for a second and after quickly nodding to Ralix with an unspoken message that he's in charge while I'm gone for a while.
"Sure. I think there's an unused classroom near the kitchens. I'd suggest using the kitchen itself but drunk elves love to gossip." I chuckled at the little joke, it's true but still.
We find one and enter after casting about a dozen temporary cleaning spells as I don't want to get my suit dirty. I lost a bet and now I'll be changing up the color of my suits every now and then. To show off a bit for the task, instead of wearing what they sent me as it was insulting how they added a badger to it but neglected my Jolly Roger, I'll be wearing a blue suit but keeping my cloak red.
"Now then Ms. Granger what is it that you wanted to speak with me about?"
"This might sound weird but I have a proposition for you. I wanted your help in building an Itter alliance."
I'm shocked by that as despite not really being in this world I do know about that battle. It's not really well known but it was a battle just before v day. It was a surprising battle during the last months of the second world war.
"I'm not sure if you're aware of this but it was the only battle where the Americans and Germans, two sworn enemies, fought together to free French prisoners from Nazis who were the main opposing force despite their leader being dead."
Seeing she was about to continue the history lecture I held up my hand to stop her. "I am aware of that battle. It was amazing to know that something as unexpected as that could actually occur. Funnily enough something similar happened once with my father and an ally of his generation. A marine who swore to bring him down and chased him all over the Grand Line, even following him into the New World, banded together with my father and a warlord. Before you ask a warlord is a government sanctioned pirate although that doesn't mean they get along. To be truthful the warlords still can't stand each other or the marines so it's a forced cohabitation. They'll never be true allies."
She was surprised by it, to be honest everyone is, even those involved. "Trust me when I say that it's difficult for most to believe the fact that a strong follower of Justice who isn't corrupt to partner up with two pirates to take down a Gas Clown, I'll explain later, is a shocking thing. Even with my generation that is something of an impossibility."
"To answer any possible questions their mutual enemy is literally named Caesar Clown, well really the other way around, but for the sake of conversation I'll keep it in the way of my world. As for the other part, he ate a fruit which literally made him made of gas. In my world there are fruits which make people's bodies literally made of a specific element. Trust me when I say that the people of my world have very strange names and in some ways even stranger abilities. Anyways care to elaborate on this alliance."
"Oh yes sorry, I got so wrapped up in your story. Anyways from what some of your men have told me, and from my own observations, it seems like more of those men might show up, so I ask of you to help me form an alliance between the houses and your crew to help defend our home."
This was something which I'd been contemplating for some time now. This is their home too, even if they're not here for the entire year, but the longer we stay here then the more likely the rift between worlds will stay open. It's obvious that the rift won't stay in the same place but that only worries me more.
"Alright I'll help. I can see why you want me to be middle ground. With the actions of my crew and the cold war between the Slytherins and the Gryffindors and the actions of the last war, there is pretty much no chance of anybody working together without a third party getting involved. But it seems like you're sitting on something. What is it? Trust me I'll listen to whatever idea you have."
"I was thinking that maybe if it's at all possible you could recruit some of those marines as I think you and your men call them, to help with this alliance. Before you reject let me add this. They're stuck here same as you are so you could at least try to reason with them instead of killing them all outright and try to get some of them to work with us so you can all return home."
I weighed the options before voicing my thoughts and told her what I think. "It's certainly a possibility, but it doesn't seem like it'll happen. In the marines an alliance, even a desperate one, would lead into being annihilated by Fleet Admiral Akainu. Or as my generation call him, Mad Dog Magma. He ate a fruit which was similar to the one that Caesar did, which turned his body into magma. He's very violent in every sense of the word. Once there was a war to save an uncle I never knew from the marines clutches and Akainu killed one of his own men just because he wanted to leave in order to not leave his family behind."
"Trust me when I say what me and my men do to them is mercy compared to what their leader will do. But it doesn't mean we can't try. My generation is known as the Bold after all. I'll see what I can do. Today marks the beginning of the Hogwarts Itter Alliance."
We shook hands as we smiled at each other and agreed to do our best to build it up.
Flashback End
"I want to know how recruitment has been going. Any luck with the houses.""Sir, it's been reported that in total we have about twenty people. About four or five of them being from Slytheri House with surprisingly barely any from Gryffindor. Aside from the twins we only have about one other, their little sister who I believe goes by the name of Ginny."I'd heard about her from the twins. She has a hex that can be quite painful with enough power behind it and was the youngest and only girl."That's intriguing, it's certainly more than what I'd guessed that we'd get for a startup. Have Hermione meet me in the room where we did before and alert the allies from the houses. Have Nana bring Chopper and Brook as well. That is all for now."With a quick salute for no apparent reason, they left the room.It was about five minutes before the scheduled meeting with Hermione and the other 20. I was waiting in the room I expanded with Brook and Chopper in his default form. I'd also asked Margaret and my mother to join.At about nine o'clock on the dot the door opened ad in walked the twenty allies. "Welcome students of Hogwarts, you're no doubt aware of why you're all here. So let me be the first to welcome you all to the first official meeting of the Hogwarts Itter Allaince, or H.I.A. for short. This alliance was formed to promote peaceful cooperation between the four houses. For too long have there been a bit of a cold war going on between you all, but all that needs to end.""Long story short, danger is coming to your world. For various reasons people from my world are showing up out of the blue and for some inexplicable reason are popping up here. So me and Hermione proposed an alliance between the five of us and it was created in order to work on keeping everyone as safe and have as minimal damage as possible to both the school and its surrounding areas. There are numerous others, myself included, who could wipe this entire country off the map with a snap of their fingers." They gasp at this major shock. They knew that the reason for a creation of something like this may be for a big reason but they never expected something of this scale."I know this may scare you but think about this. Me and my men will train you to fight and get stronger to help protect you and your friends. Think that if you're scared now, then imagine how your friends, and by extent your family, will be if more dangerous people keeping popping up like this. I'm just as, if not more dangerous as they are but I'm holding back. Those attacks from awhile back were done by me and my men. We broke into Gringotts and killed the dragon and some of their elite guards and stole all the gold and priceless jewels and artifacts." They gasp as they still haven't found the culprits responsible for either of those."Before you start jumping to conclusions let me tell you this. Aside from general piracy and my inability to resist a challenge, the reason I did it was to teach a lesson. The ministry had completely underestimated our abilities and believed that despite all the intel that was no doubt leaked to them, they still believed that they could actually beat and probably kill me without having to take any precautionary measures. Their ignorance is a sign that your minister believes that by throwing his nonexistent influence around he ca get away with anything as he pleases. Thinking such as this cannot stand. If thigs like this were allowed to continue it could be extremely dangerous if there was ever any real threats in the future."That brought them out of their stupor as it finally hit them. "This is why I brought these four from my father's crew as an example of why I think this could work. The skeleton you see with me was left by himself in a dark corner of the world for fifty years after he and his crew had died but was forced to be reborn and was left all alone. My father took a leap of faith and trusted him and after awhile he did too and he stuck by them to this day. The reindeer is from a winter island who was abandoned by his own kind for his blue nose and hunted by humans until a kind doctor took him in and gave him his name and now he's the best doctor in the world.""You jerk, flattery won't work on me." Going through his usual deniability reaction he held back from swearing in front of the children. Most were gawking at the sight of a talking reindeer, those were the ones who don't go near Reila very much."YO HO HO. Ladies may I please see your panties." My mother took Nami's job and kicked him into the far wall, causing a massive crack to form."Pervert." We all muttered in embarrassment and shame."Lastly these two who you see are my mother and my aunt. They are from an island of only women., They absolutely hated all men until they met my father. They tried to kill him several times until his nature won over my mother and as they say the rest is history.""Why the hell are you giving us a damn history lesson? We came here because we were told you'd teach us how to fight, so why are we sitting around here listening to this shit?" Rudely shouted Zacharias Smith, a fellow Hufflepuff who I absolutely can't stand."I was getting to that Smith," I withgo all forms of formality as he doesn't deserve it in the slightest, "the reason I've stated that is because I want to show you that nothing is impossible. That even in the most extreme of the unlikely situations can come out of it. I brought you here today to establish the leaders of the four houses. Not counting Gryffindor because as co founder she takes the role for that house. Since I'm not kicking you out right this minute. For Ravenclaw I've already chosen Luna Lovegood, Slytherin Astoria Greengrass, and finally Hufflepuff Susan Bones. They've been chosen because of their loyalty and ability to interact with others. If you disagree then tough luck. The four of you shall receive a transponder snail at the end of this meeting and it will be the way for me to relay messages for when the time is necessary. The four of you will also serve as observers for potential members as well as judges to make sure no one acts against the alliance. Now that I've said my part I believe Hermione has some things to address as well."I lay back in the couch as I knew that this wouldn't last for much longer, but more than likely I'll be facing some questioning afterwards."Okay then, as Mr. Monkey has stated once we get more members we'll begin training within the Forbidden Forest in order to face off against the potential threats that continue to leak in. But this is also to help promote piece between the houses. There's been so much bad blood and it continues to grow, I was hoping that something like this may be able to end, or at least quell, it."Wait a minute, why're we doing it in the forest? I thought that since he was training us so why aren't we using his freaky island to train. He trains his crew so doesn't that mean he thinks less of us.""How dare you insolent man question my son. I have half a mind to turn you into stone." While she's mellowed out a bit she'd never stand idly by and let someone insult he family."Please calm down mother, he's just another Kizaru, nothing but a pesky nuisance."Ignoring his blundering I just nod to Hermione to continue. "Before you go I'd like to have everyone put their names on this piece of parchment.
