gomugomunopwn | [Action] Enter Akimichi D. Luffy!

[Action]

BAIKA NO JUTSU!!!

[Anyone who’s near the edge of town might hear the echo of Luffy’s voice before a huge boulder sized ball comes rolling through town at high speeds, accidentally crushing anything that isn’t an actual living squishy being in it’s path.]

MOVE! MOVE MOVE MOOOOOOVE! [Yes. That giant boulder thing is actually talking. And the voice that's coming out of it is Luffy's. Luckily he has enough control to the point that he won’t accidentally crush anyone. Well. Hopefully. He might just... nearly crush a few people that’s all.]

I NEED TO GET TO THE STORE!

[Luffy actually had a somewhat valid reason for his brashness this time though. He was starving and as a member of the Akimichi clan, that was never a good thing. Especially in his case. But feel free to try and stop him, wtf, or whatever. He might even slow down and try to talk to some peeps if they're consistent.]

[Voice]

[Well after that whole mess is over, Luffy is at the grocery store, happily munching on whatever foods he can get his hands on. He decides to go ahead and open his journal to ask the general public a rather general question.]

Guys! [He says with a mouth full of food.]

If you could only eat one kind of meat for the rest of your life... what kind of meat would you eat?

[OOC: Luffy has been AU’d to Naruto’s world for the event! And has become a member of the Akimmichi clan. If you aren't aware the Akimichi clan are basically a family of people from Naruto's world who converts their body fat into Chakra to use special techniques. The problem with Luffy is that his metabolism is way too fast for him to properly gain weight. So in this AU he's considered a failure amongst his clan, and instead of trying to gain weight, he constantly eats throughout the day. Attempting to convert what little fat that does manage to stick into chakra.

Naruto "Castmates": To keep things simple, he probably doesn't have... that big of a relationship with any of you guys. He managed to become a Chuunin after timeskip, but during the first half he was put on a fail Four-Man Team (since they were too fail to three man) that didn't really get anywhere. =I

He might not be the best Akimichi around, but his Taijutsu techniques are effective and his strength is far above average for his age. His ninjutsu is okay, but his genjutsu is terrible. His chakra pool is huge but of course it's not as stupid as Naruto. As far as what KIND of jutsu he uses I'm thinking short to mid range.

As a side note, I'm still doing Script Frenzy so I'm gonna be slow!

Edit: Oh yeah! I forgot about this but Luffy has been staying at Community Housing Building 1, Floor 7 and rooooom #35. If that hasn't been taken. If not any other room on the Seventh floor.]

What happened to Garp and the Straw Hat crew?

...

I know the Strawhats, but.... Garp who?

Monkey D. Garp. The "hero" of the marines. Ace's and your grandfather.

...

Oooooh! Yeah you must be talking about the "Other Me's" family! Nah I have different memories from that guy now, so I don't remember what you do.

Oh, I see. [Instantly assumes Shift.]

Must be weird, eh?

You'd think so but nah! I don't even remember any of the other stuff so it's fine!

I hope I didn't have to forget what I know now but eh. I doubt the Malnosso let's me keep it all.

No, why not?

Because that's what those bastards do. They never let anyone have or keep the stuff they really want.

Annoying. But Ace is here... that counts for something I think.

Heh! That's true. He's always been a pretty good friend to me!

[Shakes his head. That was just unnerving.]

Yeah. He's the best kind of friend you can have.

Hehehe! I guess that means you two have been friends for a looong time.

Only about four years actually. Well, almost five now I guess.

But he's the only one in my crew who likes fire as much as I do, and he's kind of impossible not to like I think.

Ah, that's still a long time!

Wait, why do you like fire so much? Do you got fire attacks too somehow?

I'm glad you think so. [It makes him feel way less guilty about keeping Ace around.]

No, my flames can't harm, only heal. But I'm a phoenix. So a predisposition towards fire goes hand in wing you might say. [Yes because Luffy will obviously understand all of that =\]

A phoenix? How did you become something like tha--

[Oh wait. Hmmm.]

OH! Did you eat the Phoenix Phoenix Fruit or something? [Since Ace was talking with him about a rubber rubber fruit earlier.] And what's with your fire? Isn't it weird for it to heal instead of burn people? Seems like burning would be cooler.

Yes.

Unfortunately, I can only heal myself. I'll leave the burning to others, eh.

Only heal yourself? Wow, but isn't it kinda weird being that way? Phoenixes are supposed to represent fire right? Like the burning kind? You don't you feel just a little cheated from that?

[Yes. Yes he does. Though mostly for the living and surviving when his family can't.]

Not for a lack of being able to burn things.

And I can take a lot more damage than anyone else can and try to protect my family that way. [If only he could be everywhere at once he could, but then he wouldn't be a phoenix. /le sigh]

Yeeeah, I guess so...

It still seems like you got the short end of the stick though...

I really wouldn't trade with Ace if given the choice. I'd just carry a lighter, I guess. Though since we're both brothers, I just point him to things and say, "Light it up," and he's usually pretty good about obliging.

Ahh, wow you're brothers? I didn't even know that. I wish I had one of those, I bet they're awesome to have!

That they are, little matey.

Maybe you'll find some someday.

Yeeeah. I hope so...

WHELP! Anyway, it was nice talkin' to you Marco! I'm gonna head out and try to restock on more meat! I'll talk to you later alright?

Sure thing Luffy.

Have fun eating tons!
