《Reality Check (One Piece Fan-Fiction)》Chapter XXI: Mt Colubo
Advertisement
Third Person POV
Lyon yet again decided to leave the crew & visit Luffy this time, in person & not on the line of a transponder snail. Leo noticed that Marco was trying his hardest not to look worried or concerned but, that didn't work out for him. Everyone were saying their tearful goodbyes again & it made Leo laugh a little bit
"Have fun with that brat of yours!" pops yelled, Leo grinned & waved
"I will!" he stretched his legs before spreading his wings
"Wait a sec!" he did & turned to see it was Thatch & Marco rushing towards him "Don't forget these, chief!" it was his bows & arrows, he looked over to see he didn't leave them where he supposedly left them
"Thanks." he hugs them then flashes a grin "Call me if anything happens, I wanna know." Thatch ruffles his head & laughs
"Alright, maybe I'll be calling if I pull a massive prank of Marco."
"That will not be happening Thatch-yoi!" everyone laughed this time while Marco started strangling the poor man "Have fun Leo, I'll... try not to worry & come flying after you." Leo nods as he sweat drops
"O-Okay."
"We'll make sure he doesn't." he smiles & hugs them before whistling for Sil to come, he spread his wings & flew off with Sil on his back, he waved them goodbye before flying off to where his log pose was pointing him towards
"You think I should get him something?" Sil thinks for awhile
"Nah, you basically tagged the Marineford wall for him, I think that's a big enough gift, Leo." he nods his head
"Yeah, your right." it took at least 2 days & a few hours to get to Dawn Island, he was going to greet Makino but he saw that the bar was closed & no one was there. He shrugged to himself before flying off to Mt. Colubo & landed right on a stump, right next to a dog, It jumped in surprise & looked up at Leo before barking happily & rubbing against his leg

When Leo would occasionally pop up out of nowhere, he would run into the dog. At first he would be barking viciously at Leo but then actually warmed up to him, but Sil & Pochi don't seem to be getting along at all, he rolled his eyes when they were growling at each other
"Please no fighting, get along." they both huffed while he sighed & ran a hand through his hair, he looked back at the door & lightly knocked on it. When he got no answer he knocked a little louder this time but he still didn't get an answer, he was now losing his temper & he actually banged on the door, the door opened to a woman with curly orange hair
"WHAT DO YOU WANT?!?!?" she practically screamed at him, he looked up at her with widened eyes until he calmed down a bit
"Um... is Luffy here?" she calmed down, but only a tiny bit, she then raised an eyebrow
"Are you a pirate?"
"Yes...?" she was shitting bricks now, she remember then ASL telling he that pirates most likely be after them... so-- she started screaming, which made him panic "W-Why are you screaming?! Are you okay ma'am!"
"Dadan, why are you screaming?" Leo heard a voice, he looked behind her & saw someone that made him grin "Leo!!"
"Luffy!" he dashed over to Leo & tackled him into a hug "How have you been?"
"Great now that your here!" Leo then cuddled him into his chest, Dadan was staring in disbelief & soon enough the others came walking out
"What is going on?!" he looked over to see children, a blond wearing a top hat with goggles while another had raven black hair & familiar looking freckles, with also piercing black eyes that could send shivers down your spine

"Ace, Sabo! This is Lyon, the guy I've been talking to you about!" Luffy cheered as he jumped out of Leo's arms & pulled him towards the two children "This is Ace, & this is Sabo!"
Ace just glared up at Leo as he tsked while Sabo awkwardly waved, he rubbed the back of his neck & sat down on the ground, which Luffy hap & smiled up at him, which he smiled down at him as well
"When did you start smiling, Leo?"
"Well, after I left Dawn Island actually, & what Makino said to me really hit me like a... ship."
"What she say?"
"That I seem like a older brother to you." his eyes widened at that "So what do you say? Do you want me as your older brother, Luffy?" Leo sweat dropped when Luffy was smiling ear to ear & had stars in his eyes "I... take that as a yes?"
"YES!!!" everyone saw that Luffy stretched his arms around Leo multiple times as he kept on saying yes
"Now look what he did, he made Luffy so happy he won't shut up!"
"Now that's not nice kid, he's just happy." Leo said as he ruffled Luffy's head, Ace merely rolled his eyes but winced in pain when Sabo smacked him in the back of the head "Now we haven't formally been introduced, I am Stoneheart D. Lyon, but everyone calls me Leo." he introduced himself to Dadan, she however marveled at his politeness
"... he's so polite..."
"Pardon?" she then shuffled away as Magra & Dogura away from the four, he looked down at them with a weird look
"Is she usually like that?" they shrug
"Probably yes." suddenly they hear Dadan yelling about something so they look over at her
"Then I'll remind them that this is the Dadan Family not the Brat Family! In other word they're outta here!! Garp can suck it, he doesn't know me--"
"Hey!!" a deep voice said, which made her pale
"FORGIVE ME!! I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WAS SAYING!! I LOST MY MIND!"
"We're sorry to trouble you but we were told that a boy named Luffy lives here now."
(meh, sorry if short or boring)

From Nothing
Rejoice Humanity! You have been invited to join the Galactic Hegemon. It is time for our Centenary Caste Competition. The best 1% of humanity will be given a 1 cycle tutorial before the 5 cycle contest. Be brave, be bold, but most of all, be strong and earn your place and privileges. Burning red letters hung large in the vision of everyone on earth that knew a written language. At the same moment that smartest, fastest, and strongest people on the planet disappeared with nothing to mark their passing. After a cycle of training and growth they would compete to earn their place in their suddenly expanded galaxy. This is not their story. Joe did his best to take care of his parents house and stay healthy. He was the only one of the four family members not chosen. The societal upheaval made by the announcement made the inflation and purges of the 20's seem pleasant by comparison but he keeps his head down and survives. Once the next message arrives 11 months later about the contest starting, even that society broke down into city states around large population centers. Joe tightened his belt and looked forward to the day that his family returned. Two years later burning red letters once again filled his vision. Humanity, the last of your competitors have been eliminated. Your determined caste level is 13 of 13. As such your planet has been claimed and will be repurposed for ideal resource production. Rifts will be seeded across the planet to increase resources and mana density. Your orbit will be corrected to ideal Hegemon standard. Do not interfere with any Hegemon activity, as the bottom caste you have no rights. Rejoice that all castes receive at least the basic Hegemon Growth System. Better luck next century. Joe didn't comprehend any of it. His family was dead. Everything he cared about was gone.
8 133Vylt: The New Dawn
Mankind finds a way to use magic, but this great power comes with a price. A transaction that can't be refunded. Nora Hayes is a simple girl whose only worry was graduating high school. That is, until she faces this new reality. How will she, her family, and her friends deal with the aftermath of such event? Currently revising all the existing chapters. New ones coming after that! _________________________________________________________________ Sneak Peek: Next to the kitchen, there was a small squared table and two wooden chairs, each made from different wood. The bookshelf behind those contained a decent amount of books. I stood up to take a closer look at them and even opened a few out of curiosity. While I could read most of them just fine, some of the oldest-looking books were written in a language I didn't recognize. "Hm? Was my hand always blue?" I didn't remember. In fact, I couldn't recall anything about myself, not even my name. Inspecting the rest of my body, I found that it was the same all over. I didn't feel sick; quite the opposite. Still, my blue skin felt out of place for some reason. Trying to find an answer to my situation, I kept investigating the odd room. _________________________________________________________________ Big thanks to Alice Griffin for helping me out with the cover.
