A Swagnificent Beginning [Yolo Pirates]

[Deleted]

"YOLO, RIGHT?"
"Get the hell out of here, Swaggins!"
"Get the hell out of here, Swaggins!"
"Get the hell out of here, Swaggins!"

Ah, an ordinary day for the life of Yolo Swaggins, possibly the most annoying pirate in the South Blue. Actually, more like the most annoying pirate in all the seas. Unfortunately for him, even in the Pirates' Market, his horrible reputation caught up to him. Despite constant jumps from island to island, he was still being hated for what he loved. It was incredible! The guy arrived from the Grand Line and it was expected that everyone would crowd around him for tales of wonder and awesomeness. What the people got instead were two simple words, "YOLO RIGHT!"" Well, that didn't do jack squat. And the blond haired pirate knew it. It didn't matter though. After all, Yolo was here on a mission to recruit some fellow pirates, not to get persecuted and tortured. And the first clue to where he SHOULDN'T be doing that? The local bar.

"And stay out of my bar, you retard!" Yolo picked himself up off the filthy dirt floor and brushed his brilliant white coat of any impurities. The thing had cost him nearly half of all the money he received from his father. If anyone got it dirty, Yolo would kick the shiz out of them. Huh, guess these guys aren't swagnificent like me! Still...where the hell do I now? The Gold Nuisance took a broad look around him, trying to see if any potential crew mates were within his presence. A few stuck out like a sore thumb but, overall, the Pirates' Market only seemed to be full of ruffians and brutes. Well...shit. Had he come to the wrong island? Was this not the ideal location for creating a bond between pirate brethren? If it wasn't, then why the hell did all the people from the other South Blue islands tell him that? As an act of frustration, Yolo kicked the air beside him. Unfortunately, he missed. As in, he missed the air. What the Terrified Vexation managed to strike instead was a towering pirate captain around 15 feet tall. The man had bulging muscles under his titanic steel armor and the first hint that Yolo should have escaped was the infuriated expression upon the man's brutal countenance. "Uhhh sorry about that dude...I just didn't know you were there hehehe..." Ah, an average day for the life of Yolo Swaggins. "Someone help me!"

[shivdude]

Hugh chuckled as he watched a particularly jovial individual being booted out of the bar. It seemed as if this man was a survivor from the Grand Line, however when asked to speak about his travels and experiences, the man would simply reply with... "Yolo?". Hugh shook his head, what did 'Yolo' even mean? Curious as ever, Hugh stood up and strapped his rifle tightly to his chest, and proceeded to leave the bar. It was a nice day outside, but despite this the Pirate's Market always possesed this thick tension, as if anything could kick off at any moment. And it was no wonder, this was a safe-haven for Pirates, and most Pirates weren't as hospitable as himself.

"...." Spotting the blonde haired imbecile, Hugh decided to shadow him quietly. If he had indeed been to the Grand Line and back, the sniper reasoned that 'Yolo-guy' must be in possestion of some pricey artifacts, or at very least, a log pose. If the Rection played his cards right, he might be able to get away with mugging this fellow for some of his gear, he might even score enough to buy a small ship and start his journey.

However, no sooner than a minute from whence his tail begun, Yolo had already found himself in another spot of trouble. Squinting his eyes to identify the victim of Blondey's kick, Hugh gulped and took a step back. He recognized the captain, I mean, he was insanely big so who wouldn't? Cursing his luck, the silver-haired boy kicked off from the ground, as the Captain spoke out in his booming voice.

"O'er... There seems to be' a lil' bug, Oi, why'd you it' me bug?!" And without waiting for an answer, the behemoth of a man swung his fist down as if he were setting down a jug, aiming to pummel Yolo into the ground by his head. Much to Hugh's surprise however, Blondey evaded the strike, though Hugh wasn't sure whether that attributed to his skill, or just dumb luck. Either way the shock was enough motivation to make him intervene.

Dashing forward, Hugh lazily raised his rifle with one hand and cocked. The tell-tale sound of a gun being loaded made everyone around them freeze for a second. The barrel was neatly placed against the Captain's back, with little Hugh standing on the other end.

"Stop." Of course, the sniper was a man of very few words. He refused to waste words when needed, aslong as he could get his point across. And nothing gets your point across than a big gun pointed at your back.

Ren looked up to the bright blue sky, his journey as a pirate started today at the pirate market in the south blue. He had just arrived and enjoyed the breeze as it went through his hair. Right from the start Ren knew their would be trouble at any places with pirates but this was more then he thought. Ren was at the local bar, though he wasn't really the biggest drinker he figured it be the best place to find a pirate crew. A Blonde haired man, who for some reason repeated the word "Yolo" had been kicked out, he somewhat brightened the mood in the bar and figured to see where he'd head next.

When Ren exited the bar, The blond haired man was searching the area for something and what seemed like out of frustration kicked a large pirate Ren had seen before on a poster. "I feel sorry for that blonde guy, that big guys going to destroy him." Ren thought as the pirate yelled at the man and tried to attack him by slinging his ginormous hands at the unlucky fellow. To Ren's surprise the blonde guy was able to dodge with ease as it seemed.

Ren was about to help as he he heard the cocking of a gun, Ren jumped somewhat at the unexpected noise, the man yelled to stop. Ren couldn't help but speak up, even with the risk of being shot he felt it was the best thing to do. "Hey look pirate guy, it looked like an accident from my angle so why don't we just let bygones be bygones and pretend like this never happened and go are own ways. How does that sound?" Ren said to the large pirate with his hands raised trying not to make sudden movements, setting off the gun guys instinct could get himself a bullet put in him.

Whoaaaa, who is this guy?
A stranger had managed to cease the rather one sided brawl between Yolo and the large man before him. It was the perfect chance for escape and it was obvious that the Blonde Pirate wouldn't get another oppurtunity like this again. With that in mind, Swaggins sprinted off as fast as he could, separating the distance between the gunslinger and ruthless captain. It seemed like today wasn't the best day to start finding some new friends.

When the men were no longer in sight, Yolo stopped dead in his tracks, luckily, in one of the most hospitable spots on the island. Here, he was sure there would be some fellas to get some adventuring on. With a glowing white smile, the Blond Pest strutted through the streets with style, constantly whispering to himself his favorite song (that he wrote, by the way).
"I used to rule the seas, made everyone bow down on their knees~ Now every morning, I eat alone. With no chef to make filet mignon....I hear Marineford bells-a-ringing! Devil Fruits users drown while singing! Be my mirror, my sword, my shield! A woman that won't mind when I cop a feel~ For some reason I can't explain, my word 'YOLO' is the bane- that infuriates, aggravates, oh all the rage~" Ah, that song was the best he had ever written. Then again, the Annoyance wrote only one song in his entire lifetime so it couldn't really be called the best. No matter.

By the time Yolo finished singing, he had arrived at a restaurant by the name of "Dick's Meats." An uncomfortable place for someone who wished to experience new things in life. He would have passed if the bar hadn't kicked him out before the food arrived. The meal cost him a crapload too. Seeing as how there would be no way to think on an empty stomach, Yolo reluctantly entered Dick's Meats. Hopefully, this wouldn't be a horrible choice. After all, no one wants to shove bad meat down their throat for big money right?

[Menma]

During Ren's speech, apparently the blonde haired fellow started to escape without anyone knowing. For some reason that guy interested Ren, he seemed like quite an interesting guy. After his speech he quickly scurried off to find that blonde guy, while the sniper guy still had everyone scared to death. Usually he was one to stand his ground against any opponent, not to disgrace the abilities of the gale fist, but this is an exception.

Ren finally caught up to the guy who was oddly enough going into a place called Dick's Meats... Ren got a bad feeling from this place, but remembered he was kinda hungry when he arrived on the island, this probably wasn't the best place to eat but he still wanted to meet that man. He walked into Dick's Meat, to see it wasn't as bad as he thought, he looked for the blonde haired guy who was sitting at a table and seemed to be humming something, he then approached the man with his arms at his sides. "Hello my name is Ren Lee, I wanted to greet you and ask why you ran from that pirate, from what I saw you could have beaten him with no sweat." Ren said bowing to him, as that is how they greeted people from his temple.

[shivdude]

"Hey look pirate guy, it looked like an accident from my angle so why don't we just let bygones be bygones and pretend like this never happened and go are own ways. How does that sound?"

"Yeah... that pipsqueaks right boy-o, you dunno ho' yer messin' with."

Annoyances both of them, had they realized that their interruptions had scared off Hugh's prey, maybe then they would feel the weight of his anger. Nevertheless, the Yolo-guy had sprinted off into the distance, apparently he was used to scarpering in a tight spot. Narrowing his eyes, the sniper swiftly removed his rifle from the back of the Captain, and aimed to the side. The landscape of the market meant that alleyways separated each stall. Without a moment of hesitance, Hugh fired in the direction of an empty alley, and was thrown in the opposite direction into an adjacent one.

He flew a meter or so before finally catching his foot against a crate of supplies. A large smashing sound ensued and Hugh was sure the owner would be around soon to tell him what an asshole he was. Not waiting around for both the Captain and others, Hugh picked himself up off the floor and dusted his clothes lightly. The alley he was in seemed to have footholds which made traversing the side of the wall easy. Lifting his foot up and scaling the side, the sniper found himself in a comfortable position, the roof.

Dashing in the direction he had last seen Yolo run off towards, eventually Hugh caught sight of the Blonde haired man. It was an easy feat as he stood out, not to mention the advantage of elevation that Hugh had over him. Though something made him stop in his tracks. In order to make sure that his eyes were working properly, Hugh propped his rifle up too his shoulder and got down on one knee, peeking through the sights located on the top.

"Dick's Meats." Hugh whispered outloud, mostly out of surprise. Who in their right mind would willingly walk into a meat shop owned by someone called dick? It was.. too on the nose for Hugh, he decided to keep his gun trained on the entrance and wait for him to exit. Apparently Hugh would be proven wrong yet again, as one of the annoyances from earlier had also followed Yolo here. He was a braver man than Hugh, as he actually went into that place. Things were getting interesting, but Hugh wouldn't move. They'd both have to leave at some point.

"It was the wicked World Government, blew down the doors to let me in. Shattered Seastone and the sound of guns, people couldn't accept what I'd become. Revolutionaaaaries wait for the time that I'll save the day. Just a victory of emptiness...not even fit to become a princess...I hear Marineford bells-a-ringing! Devil Fruit users drown while sing-"

The Golden Pest's masterpiece was interrupted by the approach of a stranger named Ren Lee. From what the Vexation could dechipher from Ren's greeting, it was clear that the pirate admired him. The fact that Lee had thought of Yolo as a worthy adversary against a monster like that captain was a huge compliment. Donning on his trademark grin, a typical smirk full of affable arrogance, he replied back to the honorable stranger, Well, obviously I didn't want that guy to lose face, y'know? I mean come on! Everyone around here knows who the real boss is!

Swaggins stated this remark with a triumphant pose, spreading his arms and nodding his head as if he was answering his own question (which he was totally doing). Around him, pirates turned to catch sight of the cocky bastard that claimed superiority over them. Shi* was about to go down.

Unfortunately for Yolo, the restaurant crowd didn't seemed pleased by that conceited exclamation. Even worse was that Yolo didn't notice the 'gentleman' standing near him with a spike club aimed at the skull of the white coat pirate. "So Ren, what are you doing here anyways? Lookin' for a crew, perhaps?" Swaggins said this with a hopeful smile, expecting the young man to say 'yes.' Could this be the chance to gather up a crew? Well if not...Yolo, right?

[Menma]

Ren grew a surprised look on his face, he was in fact looking for a crew to join and didn't think he would find one to join so soon. "Yes I am in fact looking for a crew to join, are you a pirate captain?" Ren asked moving his head, whipping his ponytail over his right shoulder, Ren was pretty sure he knew the answer to the question but figured he might as well ask. He took a look over his shoulder and noticed all the angry eyes staring at the blonde haired man. Sure he did talk himself up some but they looked like they wanted to knock him down a few pegs or worse.

The blonde haired man also noticed the attention he was bringing and didn't seem to pleased about it. Though same as earlier he would help out just because it would be pretty much a massacre. While waiting for the blonde haired guy's response Ren took a look real long look around Dick's meats which still made him feel awkward, it had a tough look with some flashy signs and it was fairly dirty just like most of the people in here. He looked back at him who seemed ready to answer.

[Deleted]

Awwwwwwww Yeaaaaaaaaah. "Yes! A new crew mate! Though I still can't believe I managed to find one in a place like this..." Despite an effort to hide his uncontainable ecstasy, Yolo couldn't help but to stretch an incredibly pleased and satisfied grin. After all, the search for a crew member started so long ago the Blonde Douche couldn't even recall what his father's face looked like. Though that may have been due to the Vexation's forgetfullness than anything else.

After an ephemeral period of smugness, the Captain realized that his prior statement provoked quite a few of the customers of Dick's Meats. Excluding the armed gentleman behind him, there were at least a dozen or two approaching the pair of potential mates, a disadvantage Yolo found was highly unfair. The brawl would have been 2 vs. at least 20. Wow, are these guys suicidal? I'm betting Ren's got some decent skills to dish out some of these haters but I'm pretty sure these guys won't even be able get the full deal from moi. This time Swaggins only flashed a small grin, one hidden under the ominous shadow of his lowered head.

It seemed strange that today would be the day his adventure started. After all, today he had been booted out of a bar, stumbled upon a titanic captain, retreated from a potential massacre, and acquainted with a potential crew mate in a restaurant named "Dick's Meats." Fate sure did have some very strange methods.

While Yolo pondered of destiny's complex tendencies, multiple battle cries resonated through the dining establishment and the first strike was aimed at the back of Yolo Swaggins' skull. Obviously, the assailant was the same man with the club who had been standing over the awesome blonde ever since the conceited remark echoed through the restaurant.

As the weapon 'slowly' descended to Yolo's vulnerable skull, the white coat pirate decided to take action. "Alright, enough of this noise." With a quick jerk to the side, Yolo barely managed to evade the wrath of the furious pirate. After evading the attack though, the pirate captain knew that more would approach to challenge the almighty Gold. It was going to get messy in Dick's Meats, real messy. Luckily, he was with Ren so a chance of survival didn't seem too far out of the question. Yolo stood himself up, tall and proud like any other Captain would do and exclaimed to all his enemies, "Come on ladies, bring it on!" Something swagnificent was gonna go off in this joint.

I suck. I know. I'm sorry. T_T

[Menma]

Seemed the blonde haired man was over joyed that Ren would join his crew though the men around them started to seem like they wanted a fight. At least 20 people surrounded them the odds are way against the two but Ren is known to do well at a disadvantage. Also Ren is gonna go all out, he wants to earn his new captains respect and most certainly not doesn't want to lose in front of him. "Well guys if it's a fight you want to fight then i'd be happy to oblige." A smirk grew on Ren's face as he stood in his fighting stance where his right arm stuck out and his left stayed behind his back.

Since they where at a large disadvantage Ren decided to use one of his stronger techniques. He ran at one of the guys and delivered a powerful kick to his stomach knocking him into another guy then both of them hit a table.

A guy came from his right with a sword going for a slice at the side of Ren. He easily dodged doing a back flip and landed on his shoulders, then swiftly twisting the guy fell over being knocked out. Four guys came at him all going for a punch at once, Ren jumped into the air with his feet out and spun kicking each of them in the face as they all fell onto the ground.

"Five down, I hope my captain is a little impressed." Ren smiled giving an intimidating look at a group of them then stuck out his hand telling them to come on. He picked up one of the tables and threw it in the air some. He spun and kicked the bottom of it sending it at the group at a high speed, which took out another five.

One of the guys tried to sneak up on Ren with a club and slammed it down aiming for his head. Ren jumped forward landing on his hands before the club hit him, He pushed off from the ground with his hands giving the guy a kick in the chest sending him back about seven feet. Ren swiftly turned around and sprinted at him clenching his fist tightly. Then yelled his the name of his strongest punch. "Gale Fist!" The punch went straight into the face of the about six and a half foot man, which had enough force to slam his head into the ground. He then looked over at his new certain to see how he was doing.
