My Little Pirates: Luffy's Adventures in Equestria

by Fullmetal Pony


A beam!

Luffy breathed deeply. Discord was splayed out along the ground near him, unmoving aside from the occasional twitch. “What a weird guy. Wish he’d kept the clouds though.”

A bright light appeared to his left and he raised a hoof to shield his eyes. Twilight and her friends dashed out the light. A golden tiara adorned Twilight's head and necklaces hung around everypony else's necks.

“Princess!” Twilight called out. “We came as soon as we saw th- huh?!” Twilight looked over the bizarre scene in front of her. “What… what in Equestria happened? Luffy, why are you here? Where’s the Princess? Why is Discord beaten to a pulp?!”

“Yeah!” Dash flew over to Discord and prodded him with a hoof. “This guy was supposed to be our job.”

“Oh.” Luffy nonchalantly looked at the ponies and smiled. “He was being a jerk so I beat him up.”

A few of the hairs on Twilight’s head went crooked. “You did what? He’s the embodiment of chaos! He’s an all-powerful entity based on a primordial force of the universe!”

“Um, I didn’t get most that, but it’s not like beating up gods in new to me,” Luffy replied while picking his nose.

More parts of Twilight's mane went crooked. One of her eyes twitched. “How can you act that calm? For crying out loud, he’s Discord! One of the most evil forces to ever threaten Equestria!”

Pinkie happily bounced around doing a victory dance. “Oh, don’t get so mad Twilight. We didn’t even need to use the Elements this time! I say we party!”

“I’m up for that.” Luffy’s tongue wagged like a dog’s. “He may have been a jerk, but he was a tough jerk. It took a lot to knock him out and now I'm hungry!”

“Um, girls.” Rarity trotted forward. “Perhaps we are speaking a little too soon.”

Nearby, Discord slowly tried to crawl away with a single paw. “Damn pirates. So unpredictable, that’s my job! Ugh, I’ll never bother with them again! I’ll just have my own kingdom here and…” Dash's hoof slammed down in front of him and blocked his meager escape. “Of course you’d be here." A white flag materialized in his claw and he weakly waved it. "Uh... truce?”

“Blast him!” Fluttershy yelled. All six piece of jewelry glowed and unleashed a rainbow beam on Discord. In a flash, he was back to being a statue.

Stars of wonder had replaced Luffy’s eyes. “So cool!” He ran up and looked at the statue and then at the girls. “That was awesome! What was that?”

“Elements of Harmony, dear,” Rarity explained. “They’re special weapons we have to use against threats to Equestria. They also make quite nice jewelry on their own.” She twiddled the diamond shaped jewel around her neck.

“Neat! Where can I get one?”

“There’s only six,” Twilight said. “I'm not even sure if they’d work with other ponies. Hmm, guess it would possible for other ponies possessing the proper virtues to use them.” Twilight slapped herself across the face. “What am I saying? You need to explain what happened! Discord doesn’t just break out of his prison on a weekly basis! Also, where is Princess Celestia? I feel she could explain things much more clearly.”

“I am right here… my faithful student.” Celestia stepped out of some nearby shadows with a depressed expression on her face. She glared over at Luffy. “There is much to discuss.”

“You still wanna fight? I may be hungry, but I’ll take you!” A little bit of steam came out of Luffy’s nose. He shifted his stance and braced himself to launch an attack.

The other ponies’ jaws dropped at this. Celestia sucked in her breath and then released a deep sigh. “No, as much as I regret to say this, I am in your debt. Had it not been for you, I am not sure what would have happened to my sister.”

Luffy relaxed and his expression softened. “Oh yeah, is she okay?”

Celestia blinked. “She will be fine. That spell was only meant to temporarily bind beings with my level of power.” She looked at the six mares. “Only the Elements have the power to permanently imprison such powerful beings.”

Twilight nervously trotted up to Celestia. “Princess, could you please tell us what’s going on?”

Celestia had a look of pure stress on her face, but then she relented on closed her eyes. “Yes, Twilight, I deserve to tell you the truth. Your ability to still use the Elements has proven me wrong.” She paused again. “I’m sorry my little ponies, I’ve lied to you.”

“What do ya mean?” Applejack asked.

“I shall tell you from the beginning.” Celestia looked up at the stars. “Allow me to bring light to both the world and your questions.” She closed her eyes and then the dawn came. “To start, we must go back six hundred years to a time when chaos ruled the land.”
