*runs into stage at full speed and almost overshoots the mic, skidding back to be able to grab it* but do we realize that Nika form isn't gear 5??? I mean, besides the fact that we know that the technical term is "awakening". All the previous gears aren't so much unlocked by Luffy (besides the fact that both gears 4 depend on him """unlocking""" haki) but something he develops through his own ingenuity? Gear 1 is him manipulating his muscles into pumping his blood faster and more strongly through his body, increasing his power — he's not just making himself hotter through force of will. Gear 2 isn't him increasing his body mass (as a paramecia, he wouldn't have been able to do it, although now we know he's a zoan type), it's him literally blowing air into his body to inflate it. Same thing goes for boundman, a form reinforced by haki mixed with rubber, which is so impressive when you think about it. Snakeman is such incredible control over his body that he can change the direction of his punches several times. I cannot overstate that these aren't forms in the way Chopper's Points are forms — not that he didn't achieve four to five extra forms through ingenuity, too, with his medical knowledge, but there's a difference between unlocking them (they always existed, he just needed to discover them) and developing them. Ultimately, the rumble balls don't elongate his horns or arms or make his hair grow, they allow Chopper to will them to do that, in the same way that, once Luffy awakens his fruit, he can tap into it, even if it takes some effort.
That's why we can't compare "gear 5" with the other gears when it comes to the damage they are/might be doing to Luffy's body (post-time skip, they have little to no effect one him, so he might have become strong enough to handle them... in the same way he's strong enough to rip the mast out of the ship and carry it up a whale). With all his other gears, Luffy's forcing his body to do unnatural things and putting it under enormous strain (isn't blowing air into your bloodstream supposed to give you a heart attack???). Meanwhile, we should look at g5 like we do Chopper's kaiju form, or Doflamingo turning buildings into strings, or Katakuri turning everything into mochi — extremely draining, especially at first, but in the same way a muscle will struggle with a certain weight at first but get better once you've trained it. When he says, "beat loudly, heart!" or "hit that beat!", it's not in response to it stopping, but to it beating normally instead of *battery solo*, aka it's his way of activating his Nika form. It didn't actually kill him, and if it did, it would have been from exhaustion, not from, say, wearing his veins thin and overtaxing his heart because he's trying to push gallons at the speed he's usually circulating liters.
And since I'm talking about his Nika form — it's interesting that while he's using it, he seems to be less affected by haki? Like, being hit with haki by Sanji and Katakuri in Whole Cake Island made him loose a tooth, both times, when we know his bones have to be rubber too or the rest of it wouldn't work. Still, when hit by haki, they react like they're normal. Meanwhile, while it's clear that it causes him pain, he still reacts as if he was rubber, his face molding itself to Kaido's club. I have no idea what that means, I'm just bringing it up.
Also, since I believe that Luffy's gears are not zoan type forms, that means that he was scammed out of either a form or two — compare to Chopper who has his original reindeer form, a middle point (his usual form) and a "full human" form, which he could always access, even without his rumble balls (can you imagine Chopper awakening his df and turning into like. a dude), or Rob Lucci who has a human form, a beast form, and a halfway point (I'm more willing to consider his slimmer, faster point as a form, unlike Luffy's gears, because, while he uses a technique called Life Return to achieve it, that's just another words for extreme control of his body, meaning he's still willing it to happen, like how Chopper needs rumble balls to control his additional forms at first, but eventually develops enough control to access them on his own. Luffy, outside of Nika form, can't will his fist into becoming bigger, he has to blow air into it). Luffy only has his usual rubber form and his awakened Nika form. Again, compare to Lucci, whose awakened form isn't actually a full leopard (that's his beast form) but a powered-up version of his halfway point, Nika isn't the "full" form of Luffy's df (and that awakened zoan types don't become a fuller version of their model in general, and that Chopper's awakening is more likely to be a powered up version of Brain Point). So there's a chance Luffy has a full-human form (no rubber) and a depowered Nika form (rubber, white haired, but without a lot of his abilities like flying and turning other stuff into rubber).
Also, why can he, as a zoan type, turn other things into rubber, when that's supposed to be a paramecia and probably logia type thing? I mean, not that we're ever told that, directly, but I don't see Rob Lucci turning people and stuff into leopards— *yelps* *exits left, pursued by Kuma*

Rising Sun/Reincarnation AU adaptation
Luffy - Nika
Zoro - Enma (at the time, he was a low-ranking demon that Nika Freed and follows out of respect and ambition.)
Nami - Njor (not related to Nika, but instead was abandoned by a different pantheon and was found by a mortal and raised as such. Nika saw potential in her and demanded she join him by Freeing her homeland)
Usopp - Antonio (a mortal prophet that Nika gave the Freedom of Speech and Truth, allowing anything said to become reality, but it's a retroactive power to the world, so it's never really noticeable)
Sanji - Troien (initially a damaged mortal from a noble family. But Nika gave him the Freedom of Movement and now is a God of Hunters and Love)
Chopper - Caeronn (an odd beast that always tried to nurture and help others, despite protests of others and not understanding what was needed. Nika granted the Freedom of Knowledge, Memory, and Reason so he could do everything he desired.)
Robin - Imu (before you get snippy, this makes more sense. Imu decided to join Nika out of personal ambition despite the others' initial protests. Nika allowed them to come along. When they betrayed the crew, Nika Freed them from Divinity and Immortality, leading them to later deception of others)
Franky - Sevvr Jetsm (a natural creator Nika clashed with a few times, granting him the Freedom of Expression. In time, he was deceived by Imu to develop the Great Weapons)
Brook - Whelpül (a Ferryman that lost his mind in isolation. Nika Freed him from the Imposed Duty to allow him to express himself. As gratitude, he became the God of Talent, ingraining skills into ones' very Souls.)
Jimbe - Blüshankl (the First Fishman. Titan of the Depths. He distorted the waves so no one could leave their place of being. Nika Freed him from Loneliness and brought forth new life.)
Law - Hostaal (one of Nika's Rivals that clashed with him because of Freedom of Life meant Freedom of Pain and Suffering. He tries to fix that. He was deceived by Imu to create the Eternal Youth Surgery)
Zuneisha - (Nika's pet elephant. Always protected Nika from Imu's feral leopard)
Okay I really love that and I don't where start so I will talk a bit of each. First of all I need say...I love your ideas and the changes are spot on so...
Zoro: Enma being a low status demon actually works better than he being a high one since start. I really want to keep the 'King of Hell' thing so making him starting from the bottom until the top on the Underwood would give even more impact to Nika's death. To Enma all he got now is because Nika was kind and now he is gone.
Nami:I can't change Njor relation with Nika because this is part of her deity character and has a great influence on this au(like how Bellemere got her and Nojiko in middle of storm). Now, about the abandonment I can see this happening too, now....even though she was Zinabi"s daughter she wasn't part of his pantheon...because she was popular and know by another people so she was part of THIS pantheon...somehow she started losing believers with let her be forgotten on the pantheon an left behind where she is taken care by humans...Nika feel her and save her and the rest is history...
Usopp: first of all, I love the name Antonio(I am Brazilian and this name is popular here so...I love it) . I can imagine the people not believing on Antonio at first just like how people didn't belived in Usopp, Nika probably would have gave his gift when Antonio was telling a story and Niks loves stories so he was there to listen and saw a man with good heart to make this world better.
Sanji: is perfection, I doesn't even know what to say just how to make this more complete...Troien was a 'broken human' to his family. He couldn't walk and his hand are always shaking, one day his father got tired and asked to drown him on the sea. Nika couldn't let this happen as he hears the pray of Troien's mother and blessed Troien freeing his legs and arms asking his grandfather(The god Mar) to guide the man to a Island...
Chopper: the monster that become a SPIRIT of protection? Yes I am in this. Every mythology has a monster and this is not different, Caeronn was a beast that some would says be merciless...but he was kind, Nika saw a creature that should bring fear just wanting to cure...he had to help
Robin: now we got the problem, I really like your interpretation of Robin as Im. I Just doesn't know how this could work? Like we still have Im in canon so would those be two different people or two halfs of the same? Would Im's actions affect how Robin see loyalty?
Franky: Sevvr Jetsan being the one to make the Great Weapons is actually brilliant and I don't know how I didn't thought on this...seriously. Also Sevvr using Nika's blessing to build something he would be against hurts...like being forced to betray a friend..(also the detail of Franky burning the blueprints...the own creator destroying something that should never exist...)
Brook: I have nothing to say about Brook, seriously...this is perfect. This summons perfectly Brook's character..also making him go through loneliness twice is sad.
Jimbe: about Jimbei's name I just need say I loved it. So...him being a kind of titan is amazing and him being responsible of the dangers of the seas is also good. But somehow I just feel the urge to give him a relation to Mar....maybe both created the sea kings? Or something like that....s
Law: let be honest, only Hostaal saw himself as Nika's rival...to Nika they are friends. Hostage having a problem to how Nika sees life is spot on, just yes..also Hostaal being forced to make the Youth Surgery....this was one for the few things Nika and him agreed...this shouldn't exist...immortality is not the answer.
Zunesha: nothing to talk about, just yes. NEED BE THAT

3 Part One Piece Trash Theory!!!
Tumblr media
To preface my fallacy, I’ll remind everyone of the character Mother Caramel; whom we were introduced to on Whole Cake Island. She was the figure that in a way ‘raised’ Big Mom and a bunch of other kids, and we know she was on Elbaf at some point. As it turned out, her kind and motherly nature was a rouse. She was actually a figure of the criminal underworld who sells kids off to the government. 
Tumblr media
Now into my new theory that has to do with Shanks. Also another kind character who seems to be not only well known, but loved wherever he goes. In recent chapters, we see him in Elbaf where he seems to have some history. And there is a child who, like Luffy, wants to go to sea with Shanks. As he did with Luffy, he teases him and says there’s no way he’d make it with him. In the last panel, Shanks is cast in a shadow. We know who it is, but they chose to hide him in darkness. There’s many ways to reintroduce a known character, but they chose to cloak him in the shadows....
Tumblr media
Going back to the first episode of One Piece, Luffy and Shanks seem to already have had some history. He seems to be a well known and well liked pirate in the area. At first, when luffy mentioned how he wanted to go out to sea Shanks laughed and said he wasn’t strong enough. Luffy then says he can swim; since pirates are on the sea it would make sense to be able to swim in case you’re thrown overboard or whatever. Makes sense in the first episodes with the knowledge of what normal pirates do. Shanks replies with something like, you’ll need a lot more than that to make it as a pirate. 
Around this time Shanks’ crew have already obtained the gum gum fruit and left it out in the open on the counter (they must have some serious gall to keep something that valuable out in the open!) So Luffy is sulking at the fact Shanks doesn’t seem to think he’s cut out to be a pirate so he eats his feelings... and the closest thing happens to be that devil fruit. Now, i don’t know if it was a coincidence or not, but Luffy now has the power of the devil fruit. That we now know has the power of Sun God Nika when awakened. 
So tying together the character of Mother Caramel to Shanks, maybe instead of selling kids off to the government, Shanks pushes kids to be pirates. Seems plausible. We’ve already seen at least two instances (in the first episode and newest chapter) that he seems to have a strong influence on kids and them wanting to be pirates after meeting/ spending time with him. And we’ve seen him waltz right into mariejois like he’s done it a dozen times before. While he’s there he also TELLS the elders that something needs to be done about Teach! I don’t care if he’s a yonko, what pirate tells the government what to do?? I’ll wait.
BUT! Why does Shanks seem to have invested so much into Luffy? Why give him that oh so infamous yet mysterious Straw Hat? Well I’ll tell you since you didn’t ask! This is the 2nd part of my theory! 
Tumblr media
We all know the iconic scene where Shanks saves Luffy from the sea king, thus losing his arm. Ignoring the fact that Shanks is clearly great at treading water, he goes out of his way to lose his arm while saving him. I’m not gonna go into detail as to why this is cuz honestly I couldn’t tell ya. Could just be part of him gaining his trust for the long con. These underground/ gov affiliated types (*cough* CP9) seem to like playing the long game in order to achieve their goals. Anyway, I’ll focus on what comes after.
As Shanks is leaving, he actually does a 180 and INVITES Luffy to go out to sea, become a great pirate and physically give the straw hat back. Like bruh, you just called him a weak punk 5 hours ago! 
But now, Luffy has the devil fruit power. And we all know devil fruits can be awakened when wielded by an exceptionally strong user. Shanks has nudged a goal unto him by telling him to be great enough in order to give this straw hat back. Don’t show your face around me until then. Luffy’s main goal is to be the freest. In order to do that, you have to be above the law- a pirate and the strongest; in order to protect what’s yours and in order to obtain the freedom; the world you want. And to Luffy, the pirate king is his ideal of the freest. I don’t remember if Luffy declared being pirate king before eating the devil fruit but if he did, great! Even better for my theory. If not, it was a huge gamble on Shanks’ end. From Egghead, we know devil fruits have wills tied to them and the gum gum fruit seems to tie perfectly to Luffy. This is just an observation, idk if it has anything to do with shanks or if it had anything to do with how Luffy ended up with it. But judging by their reactions after Luffy ate it I’ll think not. That might be when the plan changed...
PART 3!! 
Tumblr media
Shanks obtained the gum gum fruit from a government ship that we know from Who’s Who from Wano. Assuming this giant straw hat is one of the ancient weapons...I think the gum gum fruit is a type of key to unlocking the power of this weapon. BUT the only way for it to work is if the devil fruit is awakened to  Sun God Nika for it to actually be effective. 
Now, maybe Shanks isn’t directly related/ working with the government, and I might not have a clear idea of what his goal is, but he definitely knows the secrets. Especially about this weapon. I think he knows that this is in mariejois and what it takes to unlock and use it. That’s why he keeps Luffy close, keeps updated on his whereabouts. AND he seems to be on the move, like something clicked after Wano. After Luffy awakened into Nika. Since his wanted poster is now updated to his new form. Luffy has finally become the great pirate Shanks needs. He finally saw what he needs to complete his goal. 
WARNING!! THIS NEXT PART MIGHT BE TMI, IDK IF IT’S TRUE, BUT ANOTHER THEORY I CAME ACROSS
Whatever it is. He said it’s time for him to get the One Piece. Maybe he’s going to break the red line or whatever (there was another theory where something happened with the weapons that breaks the red line, in turn destroying fishman island but also bringing them to the surface, and since all the seas will be connected; creating the all blue as well)  
END OF WARNING!
So in summary: Shanks is up to something, needs Luffy since he ate the only fruit he needs (idk who he was gonna give it to before or if Shanks was gonna eat it himself but here we are, gotta roll with it), Luffy became what Shanks needs (awakened the devil fruit to unlock the super weapon), and is now on the move. But it also seems like Im is after him too, sooo whoever gets to him first

My Nika || ZoLu
Law and the straw hats arrives in Dressrosa. Luffy has flashbacks of her argument with zoro two years ago.
• • •
 "You did what?!" Nami and chopper screams in unison, fear taking over their features. As zoro sits next to luffy with an unfazed expression plastered on him. Luffy laughs as she folds her arms, Sanji handing her a piece of fresh cooked meat. Brook throws his hands in the air as he slightly shakes in fear. Fanky and Robin laughs it off. 
"You did that?" Luffy questions, her inner thoughts saying something to her but she's blocking it off by ignoring it.
But oddly, law would've ignored straw-hat by now, but it appears that his seriousness and his victory over snail-phone had gotten to him. Zoro noticed it though, as he smirked to himself. Mumbling a few curse words under his breath. 
"It had to be done, not to mention he needs ceasar alive to continue making those fruits." 
Luffy takes a huge bite out of the meat she's currently scarfing down on, almost as if she's trying to understand the situation better and eat at the same time. Which makes zoro snickers at her. 
Luffy hopes that whatever's law is planning better work, her original goal is to take down one of the four emperor's. Kaido. Even if it means death, though she doesn't want to risk her friends being in danger. Nor dying trying to save her, though she'd definitely die for them. 
Two years ago wasn't what luffy expected, the disturbance of her brother's death flashed before her. Her almost dying in the process of trying to save him, having the rest of the straw-hats finding out of the terrible situation from others or the newspaper. Everyone was concerned for the younger, especially zoro. He knew luffy wouldn't take it lightly.
Those two years were a traumatic experience, luffy lost her dear brother, not only did she lose her brother she was separated from her crew—her friends. Her nakama. 
She remembered how her and zoro use to share romantic moments when they were alone together whenever they had the chance. Until zoro began to distance himself from her and the others, and whenever they went into battle he'd always fuss over luffy being so damn reckless. Usually he'd just shrug it off, but his irritation and fear of losing her only grew. 
Until eventually he snapped.
She could remember that day when her and zoro got into a terrible argument a heated one too. Luffy remembers it like it was yesterday. 
Zoro steps closer to her eye's boring into hers as they stare each other down, no room for understanding or even hearing the other person out. Luffy jabs a finger against zoro's broad chest. Frowning deeply. 
"I told you i was fine, im still alive aren't I?!" The raventte shouts, utterly confused as to why zoro was even mad in the first place about her risking her life to save camie and her friends from being killed. 
Luffy didn't see what was wrong with that, she was pissed. Camie was her friend so why wouldn't she risk her life for them. Zoro didn't seem to understand, in luffy's opinion. It seemed as if he wasn't trying to understand, like he was never interested at all. 
"You could've gotten yourself hurt, or worse. Do you ever listen?!" Zoro shouts, making luffy and the others flinch. 
"I didn't think—" luffy began, but zoro cut her off before she could even reply. 
"That's your problem, you never think. You just do what you want and expect everyone to be okay with it." Zoro says, fists clenching together as he looks at luffy with so much irritation and anger. 
Luffy is lost for words, usually she'd be in defensive mode about her being careless. But she couldn't help but feel the lump in her throat, tears threatening to rip from her eyes as her heart beats fast. She feels guilty and sad, the image of her brother dying before her eyes as she sits there, traumatized. Unable to do anything but cry and scream, waking up from her deep coma expecting it to all be a dream. But it wasn't. This was reality. 
"We should break up," luffy barley whispers. Zoro looks at her for a moment, he sees the pain in her eyes. She doesn't mean what she says, but it's probably for the best. 
"Yeah, yeah we should." 
• • •
"Mugiwara-ya." Luffy snaps from her daze. 
She looks up at law to only find everyone staring at her with concern written on their faces. Her eyes land on zoro who's already staring at her, eyebrow raised as she smiles a little and shakes her head repeatedly. 
"Luffy-san, are you alright?" Chopper asks as he hurriedly rushed over to the raventte and landed his raindeer paw on her forehead. Luffy just smiles, nami takes that as a yes as she continues to listen to law about the plan to take down doflamingo and the SMILE factory.
But little to much of their dismay, they weren't expecting to arrive at Dressrosa so soon. Everyone got into action, hide their faces and blended in with the crowd. Until it was time. 
Of course luffy can't stay still for the sake of everyone else, she smells food. Meat. And boy she was starving. She bolted away from the rest of the crew including law. Having Sanji, Zoro and Franky, Kin'emon chase after her. In order for this plan to work properly. But luffy never turns down the smell of freshly cooked meat or anything type of food for that matter.
"Oi. Luffy don't run off like that, we don't need any attention being drawn to us because you're hungry for food." Sanji say's sighing, before lighting up a cigarette, taking a puff. 
Kin'emon nods, putting his hand on luffy's shoulder as he sends her a small smile. "He's right luffy-san, we need to lay low." 
Luffy nods, and she smiles. Brightly a little too brightly because she knows that they are only trying not to get caught. If she was using her observation Haki, she would've sense zoro was staring at her. He's been doing that a lot lately, it's like he's been dying to say something to her but is afraid. She's not ready to talk to him just yet, she can't afford for them to start back to square one. They both would hate that.
"Oooh, there's a restaurant nearby. Let's eat there!" Luffy declares, excitement filling her voice as she sprints towards the restaurant. The boys follows behind her with an amused look plastered across each of their faces. 
Zoro though had noticed a blind man approaching with a wooden stick, or so it seemed. The green swordsman was hesitant as he carefully walked placed his hand on his sword. Ready to attack at any moment. But the blind man simply walks past him, though he comes to a stop which makes zoro clench onto his sword tighter. 
The blind man turns around towards zoro, "Excuse me, do you know a place that gambles?" There's no danger in his voice. It's quiet soft but husky at the same time, he doesn't seem like a threat. But looks can be deceiving.
Zoro shrugs, "Don't know." 
The blind man was silent before his lips formed into a small smile, "I see. Well, thank you." 
And with that, the blind man walks into the restaurant where luffy and the other's were waiting at for him so they could eat. 
• • • 
"Ahh, this is so good." 
Luffy voice is muffled due to the food stuffed into her mouth all at once, her pink cheeks are huge since she has so much food in her mouth. Sanji and Kin'emon smiles at luffy satisfied expression written on her face. Franky chuckles as he shoves a pice of sushi into his mouth. Sighing in content. 
Zoro only chugged two huge botles of sake, asking Kin'emon if he drinks. Which ended up with him drinking as well, luffy wanted some sake too, her never ending fake glare goes to zoro as he proceeds to drink the sake and not notice her staring into his soul. 
But she quickly lets go of the subject, as the pile of food takes over her mind and vision, the sound of people chatting comes to a halt when the delicious smell of meat fills her nose. She couldn't take it, it was too much. Kin'emon had asked her a question about her brother ace, which made franky, sanji and zoro tense. Waiting for her answer or reaction as she eats. 
"Luffy!" Zoro says, catching her attention. She gulps down the rest of her food as she looks at him in confusion. "Eh? What is it?" 
"Kin'emon asked you a question. About...your brother, ace." Luffy tensed at her brother's name, it's been a while since she's ever brought him up into any conversation. 
No matter how much guilt she felt about what happened two years ago, it was still haunting her, trying to escape it was almost impossible. It's impossible, she has nightmares every night so she stays up as an excuse to keep herself awake. Zoro use to comfort her all the time. 
But not anymore..
"He was a good brother to me, and he was a total badass. In a good way." Zoro already knew what to expect, luffy's not the type to lay out a whole list just to describe her brother to someone. She never like talking about him, and she damn sure won't hesitate to point out that you're making her feel uncomfortable and gloomy. That's his captain for ya. 
Luffy takes a huge bite out of the meat in her hands, "Don't wanna talk about him anymore." 
It wasn't harsh nor dry, her voice wasn't filled with anger or frustration. Just tiredness, from losing people the she holds dearly. 
Kin'emon nods, as he studies luffy for a moment. The realization coming to him in an instant, as he puts a hand over his fake white beard. "Oh, I see." 
Zoro whishes that he could comfort her, he really does but he's disappointed in himself, he let the fear of losing his nakama—his captain and lover, what they had was once beautiful. Zoro whishes that it would've never ended, but luffy still loves zoro, even if they aren't together anymore, she still loves him the same.
Suddenly luffy stands up, feeling the huge lump in her throat as she blindly fights the battle between her tears and showing her vulnerable side of her. Zoro knew whenever she'd did that she was going somewhere to cry alone, to let all her pain that's been balling up inside of her out. 
He wants to go with her, but he isn't sure if she'd want him there. Fighting the urge to follow her was to hard, he needed to be there with her. But she probably hates him. 
And since when he was familiar with a slamming door?
• • •
Luffy sits outside on the side of the restaurant, she silently lets her tears fall from her tired eyes, she doesn't even know why she's crying. But she couldn't help the feeling but miss her dear brother ace, that's two brothers she's lost. And now she has no one. Though she has her nakamas, but they almost died because of her. It was very reckless of her, but she didn't care at the time. She didn't think.
That's your problem, you never think. Zoro's voice echoes through her mind as she sniffed, maybe he was right. She's always been reckless, almost causing harm to herself and others. 
Maybe she shouldn't be captain or the future pirate king, maybe it's time to put an end to becoming what she wishes for. 
Luffy hears footsteps approaching her, but she's too tired and sad to even look up at whoever's walking towards her, though she manages to speak up. "Who's there?" At first there wasn't any responses, though they had stopped walking. 
"You really shouldn't be out here in the open like that, luffy." Oh it's just zoro. 
"Zoro?" The way his name rolls off her tongue like sweet honey makes him want to kiss her until she can't breathe. But he fights the urge to kiss and touch her, he knows she wasn't expecting him maybe at least franky or shit cook, is what zoro likes to call sanji.
He sits down on the ground next to her as he puts his three katanas next to him, luffy looks at him for a moment before focusing her gaze on the ground again, she's nervous. She honestly doesn't want to talk to him, but eventually she knew that this was going to happen. Sooner or later. 
"Can we talk?" Zoro wasn't sure if she'd want that, after all that's been happening. She never brought up the argument they had nor did she seem to hold a grudge against him for it either, she acted as if it never even happened. 
Luffy finally looks up at him, her eyes fully of guilt and sadness. But she thinks Zoro doesn't sees that, though he already had noticed. 
She sighs as her lips form into a deep frown, she couldn't help but scoff. Though Zoro knows she's not good with having serious conversations like this but zoro knew that they eventually would have to talk it out. Luffy tries her hardest not to sniff, but she couldn't help it since zoro was there. And he would always tell her that it was okay. Though this time is different.
"I want to hate you," luffy starts. As she looks at him, she can barely process what's she's saying because of the tears overflowing in her eyes. Making her vison blurry. 
Zoro slightly tenses up at her words he knows that it's hard for her, he wishes that none of what he said to her back then wouldn't have happened. They probably would've been happy together, more than they will ever know. 
"Though I can't, I can't hate you because i still love you. It hurts zoro, it really does. And I don't think i can recover from that." 
Zoro is luffy's first love, first kiss and touch. They never slept together though, because zoro wanted to wait for the right moment. Before any of this happened, maybe there was a reason zoro wnated to wait. Good thing they did, or luffy was really goona be messed up.
"Im sorry, i know that won't be enough but just know that im your nakama and i will never leave your side. I love you with all my heart." Zoro says gently, his hands tangled in her short black locks as she leans into his touch. Normally he would've scolded her for not keeping a low profile because of the white beard on the ground next to her. Though he doesn't mind, not one bit of it either. 
Zoro looks at the raventte then at her lips, he wants to kiss her as tempting as it sounds but he doesn't, he wants her to feel ready. He's not even sure if they are together again, they should take it slow anyways. 
"I want to kiss you," luffy murmurs. Already leaning in close and Zoro doesn't protest. 
God he missed this, and he missed her...
• • •
Nami and chopper sits on the green grass on the sunny, momonosuke rest in between her thighs as he looks at chooper whos sighs, clearly stressed. Nami smiles a little, as she gently rubs his head soothingly, Making the little boy lean into her touch. Brook leans against the edge of the sunny, looking up at the sky as he hums a soft melody. 
"Do you think Luffy and zoro will get back together again?" Chopper asks, his eyes gazing up at nami patiently waiting for an answer. 
Brook turns around to face nami with a knowing look, luffy and zoro have been avoiding each other on the ship after they all reunited on Sabaody, sleeping in different places on the sunny and avoiding eating at the dinner table if having to face each other or even be in the same room together. 
Especially when they had to battle someone, though they were still the same when it came to them having fight side by side. But nami knows they both still love each other very much, they just needed to talk it out. And eventually they would, and they will. But at the meantime they have bigger problems to deal with. And one of them is taking down doflamingo and the SMILE factory. Then the emperor kaido.
"I hope so, though they shouldn't be avoiding each other for too long. There gonna need each other in battle, otherwise, this whole plan of laws isn't gonna work." Nami says, looking up at the sky. Then down at momonsuke and chopper, brook. 
For whatever reason nami had a bad feeling about this whole situation, law planning on taking down the SMILE factory and Doflaming was just too much, though luffy agreed to help him if it only meant that she would get to take down on of the four emperor's of the sea. Which is Kaido. She has a very bad feeling about this, as much as she wants to protest there's no changing luffy's mind at all.
Chopper sighs as he looks at brook then back at nami with a smile on his face, "Good thing they didn't mate with each other yet." This caught nami and brook off guard, as they both chocked on their spit.
"N-NANI?!" They both screamed in usion, with a blush on their faces. Making chopper laugh.

If my OC was in One Piece (Page 2)
"Wait how do I know all this information?", I throw the remaining pieces into the ocean and sigh again. I turn my head and look at the sky while covering my head with my right arm, "Wait, the only person that ever had a tie and fought the sun god was the moon god", I look at the mysterious book that was on the floor faced flat. I open the book and looked at it and my whole body freezes and my mouth stays open. I blink a few times but calm down and take a break for 3 minutes I then grab the book and look at it, "This book tells the real history of the past and it even mentions Sun god Nika and the people who worked, fought and pledge their loyalty to him. But it doesn't mention Sana" I looked through the pages and nothing seemed interesting but as I was looking a page caught my attention. It had a riddle so I read it out loud, "Lightness only falters when thus dark beauty awaits the bridge under moonlight.", "Okay this riddle is very confusing. Like i don't understand shit" I closed the book and placed it on the floor, "*Sigh* I'm going to have to focus on how to work on my power" I look at my hands then the boat. I put my hand on the floor and think something out loud, "Store-Store Space" I open my eyes and see nothing, 'I can't believe i just said a random word now look where this got me.' I then feel something weird under my hand so i look down and shock was obvious across my face, "Woah, what a weird way to open up a space storage" I stick my head in the storage and found all sorts of stuff like weapons, gadgets, food, snacks, candies, blankets, clothes, pillows, beds, games, electronics, a Tv, fridge, a clock, a calendar, cherry blossom tree, a log pose, cash, ancient or normal gold, and doors that teleport you to other places Like Alabasta, Skypiea, the Germa Kingdom, the Flower Capital/Wano country, -Coming soon- The thousand sunny, the going merry and, many more places, "Oh~" I smirk and jump in and close the portal, "I'mma stay here for a bit" I stretch and jump on the bed face flat, I turn to lay on my back and just realized that the walls and floor looks like space well it is a space storage. I closed my eyes for 3 minutes and was about to fall asleep but then remembered I left the book on the boat I whine and but got up anyway. I then open the portal and walk through it, I look down and sigh in relief that the book was still there. I sit down and noticed that there was a ship coming my way. I looked closer and it had some trees on it and 7 people were abroad on the ship. I then gasp, "AH-. My shitty shit shit. That's luffy and his crewmates.", I panicked and kept running back and fourth on my boat while thinking. But while I was left in my thoughts, I forgot I left the book on the floor and slipped. I grunt and slowly get back up, "Piece of shit" I say while looking at the book. I then remember, 'If they're coming this way then that means robin will-....' I open up my portal and throw the book inside and close it. I sigh and wipe the sweat off my face and breathe. I then look at the direction the ship was coming and my eyes almost popped out from my body.

ONE PIECE CHAPTER 1045 SPOILERS
no because I can't believe how it FLEW over our heads that the gomu gomu no mi is actually a version of the hito hito no mi
think about it,,,
the gomu gomu no mi was introduced as a paramecia type devil fruit, one that gives someone inhumane, superpower-like abilities. people who carry paramecia devil fruit powers include kidd, law, buggy, doflamingo, and whitebeard, for convenience's sake in this lil analysis
comparing these guys to luffy, we can see how the difference between their paramecia fruits and luffy's now revealed zoan fruit was quite obvious in hindsight
let's use doflamingo first. his power, using strings as both a weapon and means of transportation, is insane. we even see him using his awakened power as transforming other things around him into strings. but notice how both his regular and awakened form didn't affect his body itself. even though one could point out how he can make a clone of himself using his power, his awakening and his devil fruit abilities did not give him any sort of physical change or power or anything
looking at kidd next, his power to control magnetism is also really cool, I personally mark kidd's power as one of my favorites, especially with his awakening. but again, we see that his powers don't give him any sort of physical form change, advantage, etc, whatever you wanna call it (him using his power to build himself an arm doesn't count in this case because it does not give him a set physical change, he can alter the shape and size of his 'arm' but at the end of the day, it does not give him any bodily physical changes)
you can see that with everyone else as well. even an argument about Buggy can't be made considering his devil fruit, while also having THE MOST POTENTIAL THAT I WILL NEVER SHUT UP ABOUT, doesn't give him any sort of core bodily physical change during use. the same can be said with robin and brook's devil fruits
why do I keep mentioning physical changes specifically?
Because we have Luffy's gears.
Gear 2 and 3 are both powers that one could see a regular rubber paramecia fruit user having, right? using your body to pump your blood faster, that has relatively rubber-qualities, as well as pumping up your bones to go giant as your skin stretches with it.
but Gear 4 got me thinking,
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Gear 4 physically changes Luffy's body to be overall bigger, his muscles blown, his hair doing that cute little floaty thing, etc, the bottom line is that his physical body changes
the specification of Gear 4: Bounceman and Gear 4: Snakeman is a REALLY BIG note to take here, considering it's the same devil fruit, same gear, but different specifications behind them, both in usage and physical form (ie Bounceman being better for raw strength, whereas Snakeman is better for speed)
when have we seen a paramecia devil fruit user physically change their body to the point of them having different 'forms' with the usage of their devil fruit????
answer: we never have.
but you know one devil fruit user we've seen using their devil fruit to give themselves different 'forms'?
Tumblr media
THE ABSOLUTE KING HIMSELF
think about it:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
we don't talk about kungfu point
CHOPPER HAS THE HITO HITO NO MI AND HE HAS ALWAYS BEEN ABLE TO USE HIS POWER TO CREATE DIFFERENT FORMS, DIFFERENT 'POINTS', DIFFERENT 'GEARS'
this is why anyone who says that the "hito hito no mi: model nika" reveal was 'sloppy' or 'out of character/out of story' or whatever, because in reality it was in our faces FOR SO LONG, and it's a GREAT FUCKING TWIST THAT WAS BUILT UP SO PERFECTLY YET NOBODY SAW IT COMING
Oda just knows how to tie his shit together and I honestly can do nothing but applaud
