## Stories 
### Romance Dawn (The start of adventure) 
Once upon a time, "The King of Pirates", *Gol. D. Roger* attained all things the world had to offer. As he was being executed by the Marines, he gave a speech regarding his treasure, which he left on an island in the Grand Line called the "One Piece". Many pirates wish to claim the ¨One Piece¨. This has caused what is called "The Great Pirate Era". Then, a boy living in Foosha Village, *Monkey. D. Luffy*, made friends with "*Red-Haired" Shanks*. *Shanks* is a powerful pirate, given the title of *Yonko* (Four Emperors, consisting of four of the strongest pirates) staying in the town. One day, *Luffy* ate a *Devil Fruit* that *Shanks*´ crew had stolen from a Marine ship, called the "*Gomu-Gomu no Mi*" (Gum Gum/Rubber Rubber fruit), giving him the ability to stretch like rubber, in exchange for taking away his ability to swim. At one point *Luffy* had gotten angry at some bandits for insulting *Shanks* and attacked them. The leader of the bandits was going to kill *Luffy*, but *Shanks* helped save him by defeating the bandits. This angered *Higuma* (the leader of the bandits) so he threw *Luffy* into the sea. *Luffy* was nearly eaten by a *Sea King*, a sea monster similar to a Sea Serpent, but *Shanks* helped him, losing his arm in the process. When *Shanks* left Foosha Village, he gave Luffy his straw hat. In exchange, *Luffy* had promised *Shanks* to become the *King of the Pirates* and deliver him his straw hat.

This gives *Koby* enough courage to stand up to *Alvida* with *Luffy*. *Luffy* ends up defeating *Alvida* and sails to *Shell Town* with him because it is the nearest *Marine* base.

#### Shell Town (part of East Blue saga)

However, *Luffy* overhears *Helmeppo* telling his Marine bodyguards that they´ll execute *Zoro* tomorrow and break his promise. *Luffy* becomes enraged over this and punches *Helmeppo*, who runs to go tell his father, Captain *Axe-Hand Morgan* to get him to beat *Luffy* up, but Captain *Morgan* is too busy raising a statue of himself on top of the base. Luffy accidentally breaks the statue, and Captain *Morgan* orders his guards to kill *Luffy.* *Luffy* grabs *Helmeppo* to find out where *Zoro´s* swords are located and *Koby* starts untying *Zoro* from the post; which gets him shot in the armpit by Captain *Morgan*. *Zoro* and *Luffy* join up to defeat Captain *Morgan*.
