==Short Summary==
This is a story of Luffy in an alternate reality. While sailing on the sea by himself, a strange bird crashes into his small boat. He looks up to find a giant ship where a girl named Ann has been captured. The bird turns out to be the girl's lifelong companion that is being hunted for its magical blood.
==Long Summary==
The early beginnings of Luffy's pirate adventure are reiterated, set in a similar world, but with notable differences. For instance, this Luffy was inspired to become a pirate by his grandfather, who is a pirate himself rather than a marine.
Luffy is out at sea, when he encounters Ann and her pet, Balloon. They are both captured by Shupeal, a warlord equipped with psychic powers. Imprisoned on Shupeal's ship, Ann explains to Luffy that the maniacal captain is after Balloon's magical blood and that she intends to save her friend. Luffy breaks both of them out of jail using his ability.
Ann fights the crewmates for Balloon's freedom, only to be cheated by Shupeal. Luffy intrudes upon the main deck, stopping Shupeal's scheme before he can attack the girl. In a last-ditch effort, Shupeal destroys his own ship with his powers, and flies off with the captive Balloon.
Ann grieves over her failure to rescue her friend, before Luffy catapults himself away, and gives chase to the villain. He rains down onto Shupeal's flying broom, delivers a final Gomu Gomu no Pistol attack, and recovers Balloon. Luffy returns to the wrecked ship and reunites the two at last. As he and Ann part ways, Luffy sails off to new horizons.
