Set Me Free

Summary:

Luffy has been a slave for 7 years. She was just given to a new owner when a strange man in an orange cowboy hat comes and wants to cheer her up. Will she finally be saved from her solitude.

Notes:

Hello! This is my first ever fanfiction. I may have written some before but it is from a long time ago. I love the Acelu ship and I wanted to get them some romance. Luffy will be a girl and she will still have the Gum-Gum fruit power. She will be uncharacteristically sad and gloomy for a bit, but Ace is going to make her like herself again. :) I am sorry if the chapters might be too short, I am not a very good writer. But I will keep trying and trying. I hope you enjoy it.

Disclaimer: I do not own One Piece or any of the characters. :)

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Chapter 1: Chapter One

Chapter Text

(3rd person POV)

 

A girl who looked no older than 15-16 with long black wavy hair, big empty emotionless onyx eyes, and an expressionless face was walking with a plate of sandwiches towards two big doors. 

 

She was wearing a white tank dress that ends at her mid-thigh and hugs her curvy body and big boobs. She had a collar around her neck and cuffs on her arms linked together. But her most noticeable feature is her small crescent scar under her left eye.

 

She stood in front of the door and knocked softly. A male voice tells her to come in and we see in the room there is a group of four men who seem to be talking about the arrival of a famous Pirate group. 

 

She set the sandwiches on the table and made her way to leave when a man at the head of the table, the one who was hosting the meeting, told her to stay and come towards him. 

 

He then takes the cuffs off her arms. “Gentlemen, this here is my favorite slave.” says the man. “She is not only beautiful but holds a special power.” 

 

He then roughly grabs her cheek and pulls hard while the skin stretches inhumanly possible. “She ate the Gum-Gum fruit which can come in handy at certain times,” he said with a mischievous smirk

 

“Hansuke, you sly dog.” said one of the other men. “She has been a slave for about 7 years. My grandparents gave her to me as my birthday present 2 weeks ago. I am pretty sure she can sing and dance as well, she can be useful.” says the man now known as Hansuke. “I’m thinking of making her sing at my party tomorrow.” “oh yea, who is coming again?” said a different man.

 

Hansuke got up and was showing the poor slave off to his friends so they can “play” with her stretchy body. And throughout these whole interactions, she kept her emotionless face. “All the upper-class people from the entire island, of course. Only high-class citizens are allowed to join my party.”

 

After all the men had a turn and were done with her Hansuke then said, “Luffy, right? You are free to go, go straight to your cage.”. The woman now known as Luffy walked up towards Hansuke. And he put the cuffs, which were made of seastone, back on her and she made her way out of the room. 

 

She then walked towards the garden where her cage was. A slave manager opened the cage and pushed her in. The cage was not very big, but not very small. There was a blanket and water for her. The cage had metal bars on one side, and cobblestone walls for the other 3 walls. The cage was outside and she could feel the warm summer wind on her skin. She was also given an amazing view of the sea, where she can see the docks. There was a ginormous boat that stood tall with a large whale as its figurehead. 

 

For the first time in years, there was a tiny bit of emotion that flickered in her eyes when she saw the flag. Surprise. The flag was black with a skull and a very cool-looking mustache, with 4 bones coming out of the skull. Pirates. Luffy had always wanted to become a pirate. But it does not seem likely anymore. She then looked back at the sea laid down as the sun started to set. Dreading for what is coming tomorrow she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

 


(Ace Pov 1st person) 

We docked at this no-name island to restock and rest for a while. Pops says we might stay for 2 weeks because we have been on the sea for a while. We have nothing important coming up so why not. Plus they have a firework festival on our last day here which sounded fun. I was walking through the small village with Thatch and Marco. 

 

We found a bar and decided to get some food and drinks. While we were drinking I heard a drunk guy a couple of tables from where we were that the nobles were throwing a party tomorrow. I absolutely hate nobles, those snotty stuck-up jerks. I had a mischievous grin on my face and turned to Marco and Thatch, seeing that Thatch had the same grin as me. Then we both turned to Marco who started shaking his head and looking displeased. 

 

“Please Marco,” we both said at the same time. He looked at us with a serious face and said “NO!”. We kept begging him and poking him in the face and stomach to annoy him. This went on for like 10 minutes till Marco Yelled, “UGH FINE. Just stop being annoying already.” Thatch and I broke into large grins. 

 

We paid the tab and dragged Marco to the nearest tailor place to get some fancy suits. We got our suits and made our way to  the Moby Dick. It was already dark outside, the sun had just finished setting. The three of us went to our respective rooms and put our suits away neatly. 

 

Then I headed to the dining room for dinner. I met up with Thatch, Marco, Haruta, and Izo. We told them our plan, though they said they did not want to get dragged into it. But they told us to have fun. After we finished eating we went to our rooms to go to sleep. I was excited for tomorrow. It is going to be a good day.
