Luffy stared at the trio that, for absolutely no reason, had appeared onboard their vessel. One of them was wearing a yellow shirt with a red stripe on its right side. He also wore baggy, cyan-coloured pants with a chain attached to it. He was also diminutive and had only three strings of hair on his head. The other one wore an orange T-shirt, purple shorts, red socks and a black hat on his head, which resembled more a sock than some headwear. The last one was wearing a red and white striped T-shirt, covered by a green jacket, plus a pair of purple baggy pants, and little pieces of hair on his head, not to mention the large eyebrow he had. However, Luffy didn’t think of these visitors AS visitors, because he was hungry. “Sanji, can you cook these guys? I’m hungry!” The response came from the whole crew, with a booming “WHAT KIND OF SICKO ARE YOU?!” Because of the commotion, the larger one woke up, and found himself staring at the Straw-hat crew…
“WOW!!! THE STRAW-HATS! I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT I’M ACTUALLY MEETING THE STRAW-HAT PIRATE CREW!!!” shouted Ed loudly and most definitely clearly, sending the pirates flying and Eddy into awakenment. “Ed, do you think you could shout a little MORE loudly?” was what Eddy said after having his eardrums blown to Kingdom Come. The response came almost immediately: “Why, of course, Eddy-my-gee!” Ed started inhaling, before Eddy, Sanji and Franky blocked his mouth, screaming “DON’T ACTUALLY DO IT!” Luffy was just laughing at this whole ordeal; this was the funniest thing that he had experienced since they had left the Florian Triangle to go to Fishman Island. However, they hadn’t actually BEEN there yet.
“Man, you guys are interesting! And we don’t even know you!” And with that, he started laughing again. Suddenly, Ed had managed to wriggle out of Franky’s, Eddy’s and Sanji’s iron grip, to deliver a message in a very cryptic tone: “But I know everything about you guys.” Luffy and Chopper, hearing this, sat down next to Ed, to listen. Surely, he couldn’t know EVERYTHING about them? Nonetheless, this was going to be interesting. “Well, eyebrow-ossan? Tell me about… My powers!” Ed chuckled to himself. Ossan was a term used about someone older than oneselves, and here, a 17-year old pirate captain called a 13-to-15 year old boy ossan! “Well, you ate the Gomu Gomu no Mi, which has turned you into a rubberman, but you can’t swim because you ate a Devil’s Fruit!” Luffy gasped. He really DID know about his powers, and he hadn’t even shown his skill with the rubber-powers that he had attained. Whatever the case, Ed continued: “Also, you’ve had your bounty raised 3 times: the first was when you defeated Saw-Tooth Arlong at Arlong Park, the second was when you defeated Sir Crocodile at Alabasta, in the royal tomb beneath Alubarna, and the third time was when you defeated Rob Lucci of the CP9 at Enies Lobby! Am I mistaken, Luffy?”
“Be quiet, you guys!” shouted Nami. “Gather around here, and see what we’ll make some beri out of!” With that, everyone (except Double-Dee, who was still unconscious) gathered around Nami, who was holding a basket with a blanket covered over. “Alright, in this basket lies the only chance we have to get some good cash, so DON’T SCREW THIS UP!!!” She looked especially at Luffy, Usopp, Chopper, Brook and Franky, them being the main cause of most problems aboard. “Yohoho, you don’t have to tell me! I’m the one who found those trinkets at Thriller Bark!” Ed raised his eyebrow at this. He hadn’t read THIS far. The manga was still midway in Thriller Bark. “Something’s wrong here, Eddy…” Ed whispered to Eddy, who remarked with a grunt, translating into “I really don’t care, so leave me alone.”
Then, Nami removed the blanket, revealing three Devil Fruit’s. “Robin, would you have the honours?” Nami asked gently. Robin responded with a nod, before speaking: “These fruits were found beneath Thriller Bark’s visible surface. From what I’ve observed, it’s one Paramecia, one Zoan and one Logia. I have only found out two fruit’s of the three: The Hika Hika no Mi and the Ougon Ougon no Mi. The third one was hardest, since it’s from ancient times. I suspect it to be the very first Devil Fruit ever created.” Luffy’s head tilted, and he asked: “But how did that Moria-guy get those three?” “I’m not sure, Luffy. He may have found them when he discovered Oz up in the north.”
However, Nami had been lost since the mention of the Ougon Ougon no Mi. “LISTEN UP!!!” she shouted, startling everyone (also waking Double-Dee). “I’ve decided that we only sell TWO of the fruit’s! I’m gonna eat the third one!” Zoro snuffed. “And we ALL know what you’re gonna eat. Money-whore…” This attracted Sanji’s attention, who proceeded to kick Zoro in the head. “HOW DARE YOU INSULT NAMI-SWAN LIKE THAT?!?!?!?!?!” And they started fighting. Again.
“Oh, my,” Double-Dee said drowsily, still feeling woozy after the unwanted speed-trip they just had, “what is with all the noise?” He stumbled over the deck, accidentally tripping over the fighting pair, and crashing into Nami, still holding the basket, which flew into the air. “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!!!!! THE FRUIT’S! SOMEONE GET THEM!!!” Nami screamed, frightened of what could happen to her only chance of making some cash. Double-Dee, waking fully up after the screaming (not taking into account where they were), began to panically sprint around the deck, trying to catch the fruits. Soon, everyone but Nami and Robin was doing so too, because you NEVER want to piss of Nami in ANY way.
“I got it!” Double-Dee said, having gotten one of the fruits. “I got one too!” Eddy shouted, jumping on Double-Dee’s back, grabbing the other fruit. “Hopsi-daisy!” Ed shouted, before grabbing the last fruit in mid-air, landing on Eddy and Double-Dee in the process, making them fall on top of each other. When the dust had cleared out, all crewmembers on the Thousand Sunny had some kind of expression on their faces: Luffy was excited, Zoro just stared, Nami gaped in disbelief and fell on her knees, Usopp didn’t quite grasp the situation at once, Sanji dropped his cigarette, Chopper gasped in awe, Robin just smiled, Franky merely blinked, and Brook was on the verge of laughing, crying and going into an angry fit at the same time. Why, you ask? Because when the dust cleared, all Devil Fruit’s had one bitemark on them! And the three newcomers were trying to choke the bites up, because of the horrid taste.
Nami stood up. She walked calmly towards the three Eds. “Listen up, you three. I’m going to hate one of you, despise another of you, and wish the very worst for the last one’s three afterlives, which I will personally make sure happens. Don’t take it personally.” She said calmly, before turning to Robin. “How do you activate your powers, Robin?” Robin responded with a calm “I only think of what to do with the fruit’s powers, and then it happens.” Nami nodded, before turning back to the Eds. “Think of light shooting from your hands.” She said. The Ed’s just looked at each other. “NOW!!!” she shouted, startling the Eds. Then, they closed their eyes, and concentrated. Suddenly, light shone from Double-Dee’s hands. “Alright, you ate the Hika Hika no Mi. Lucky you, I’m only gonna hate you.” Nami said. Double-Dee felt his heart go up three levels. This woman was even more frightening than the Kanker Sisters!
Suddenly, Ed’s shape began to change. His skin became darker, and he became taller than he was before. He also grew horns, small wings, a tail and most notably, a chin with a spike at the end. However, his shape didn’t change more than that. “GAH! Ed, you look like a devil!” Double-Dee blurted out. “How did you do that?!” Ed just looked at the shocked Double-Dee, then replied: “Well, I just thought of a devil, and I became this! Cool, isn’t it?” Nami looked at Robin. “Well, since it is the first Devil Fruit, I think we can call it Akuma Akuma no Mi.” Luffy’s head tilted. “That’s confusing.” Nami paid him no heed, and looked at Eddy. “Just to be one hundred percent sure, in case your friends ate more than one fruit.” Ed suddenly gasped. If he or Double-Dee had eaten more than one fruit, then they would explode! Nami continued: “Think of gold forming out of your hand.” Eddy did so, and gold DID pour from Eddy’s hand, much to his joy. “Hey, this is gold! Ed! Double-Dee! We don’t have to scam anyone anymore! I’m a wandering credit card with infinite credit!”
However, his joy was short-lived, as Nami was standing next to him, with death and things worse gleaming in her eyes. “YOU!” Eddy shrank many feet down, thanks to Nami’s loud display of one word. “YOU BETTER PREPARE YOURSELF, PIPSQUEAK, BECAUSE I’M SENDING YOU INTO THE OCEAN, AND YOU’LL STAY THERE!” Eddy just looked at her, before replying dryly: “So? What’s the big deal? I mean, I CAN swim!” He looked at Ed. “Right, monobrow?” But Ed simply shook his head. “And neither can we two, Eddy.” was what Ed said, causing Eddy to shrink even lower than he did the first time. “NOW YOU GET YOURS, YOU LITTLE…” “WAIT!!!” Eddy blurted out, desperately trying to find a way to save his hide. “Erm, a-ain’t the any way I can, you know, “repay the debt?”” Nami took those words into consideration, before replying “Sure, I know of a way!” Eddy sighed, thinking that his life was saved. “You just have to pay me 10,000,000,000,000 beri! Then the debt is gone.”
“Great!” Eddy said. Then he turned to Ed and asked “How much in dollars IS that amount?” “Ed did some quick thinking, before replying: “I think it’s about 10,000 dollars!” Eddy gaped and then fell to his knees. “T-t… TEN GRAND?! HOW THE HELL ARE WE SUPPOSED TO EARN THAT AMOUNT OF MONEY?!” “I have a solution.” Nami said. “You can use your devil fruit’s power to make me loads of gold. Once we’ve reached an island, I’ll take the gold and check its value. Once I’ve received my amount, then your debt is repaid.” Eddy gulped really hard before replying “Okay.” Ed and Luffy just laughed. “Man, this is awesome! Oi, Sanji! Let’s have a party so we can celebrate with these new guests! Oh, by the way, what are your names?” The Ed’s looked at each other, before replying: “We are Ed, Edd and Eddy!” “Edd with TWO D’s, call me Double-Dee.”
