Cursed

Lumina Island

In the East Blue, there sits an island that was once known for its beautiful sunrises. If you sit at the docks before 5:30 am rolls around, the sun hits the surface of the water perfectly, lighting the island in such a breathtaking manner. This is why it was named Lumina.

Though, for the last 10,000 years or so, no one actually knew that. Stepping foot onto this island was widely discouraged by most, and those who did find the island almost never left alive. Everyone knew the story about The Vampire of Lumina.

It was about a vampire who went mad and killed several humans, causing the other villagers to flee. He had no motive, no justification for going on the rampage. He just felt like it.

About 13 years ago, it was said that he had been slain by the World Government. Many celebrated. They were now rid of vampires! He had been the final recorded vampire to exist.

His name was (Y/N) (L/N).

Leaving Syrup Village having successfully beat Kuro of a Hundred Plans was a rookie pirate crew, only composed of four individuals on a rather small pirate ship, the figurehead being a sheep.

A boy with a long nose stood at the front of the ship, dramatically acting as a captain. "You pathetic little maggots." He steps down from the railing, turning toward the others and taking out a stick. "You unknowingly attacked the invincible fleet of pirates commanded by Captain Usopp of the Going Merry?!"

He jumps down from the forecastle deck, continuing to use his imagination, similar to how a child would play with friends. He slashes the stick a few times, "attack them! Show no mercy! Eh?"

He's met with no response, all the other crew members not paying attention to whatever he's saying. One is sleeping, one is painting the flag, and another is looking at map. The boy known as Usopp sighs, "Jeez, I really expected you guys to be a little more lively than this." He's spooked by the boy who was painting their flag jumping up and yelling, "I'm finished!"

The teenager shows a black flag with a crudely drawn skull and bones, adorned with a straw hat, "look, our pirate mark! Now that Usopp's joined, we've got four people. That's almost a whole crew!" The one who was sleeping sits up, obviously disappointed by the flag, "uhh..Luffy, is that really gonna be our mark?" Luffy grins, "what do ya think? Nice, huh?"

The other three stare at the piece of fabric, the sleepyhead crossing his arms, "our mark should be scary..it should strike fear into our enemies hearts." The only girl on the crew holds her chin, "if our enemies were terrified infants, then this would be perfect."

Usopp clicks his tongue a few times, shaking his head and wagging his finger. "You guys really should've told me about this! Maybe you didn't know this about me," he points at himself with a prideful grin while the others stare at him, "but I am an artist!"

He takes over painting the flag, first revealing a jolly roger that depicts a skull and crossbones that looks a lot like him. Luffy and Zoro knock him on the head, Luffy calling him a jerk. Usopp repaints it, making it look more like Luffy's version, this time much more smooth. Luffy approves it, and Usopp paints it on the sail after the flag is put up.

The crew all settle down, Usopp especially tired after painting so much. After a few hours of travel, Nami is the first to notice that they were approaching an island. As the ship gets closer to the docks, Nami notices that the docks themself were covered in moss on the legs that were submerged in the water. Nami's eyes widen, as she starts to sweat very lightly. "Guys..I think this is Lumina."
