'''''Shinobi of the High Seas''''' by Kenchi618 is a [[Crossover]] [[Fan Fiction|fanfic]] between [[Naruto]] and [[One Piece]] that takes a rather cliche and overdone idea and takes it in a completely different direction than expected, resulting in something both original and highly awesome.
 
The story's premise is that a semi-immortal Naruto, many ''many'' years after ending the Fourth Shinobi War and bringing peace to the Elemental Nations, decides that there is no longer any place for him there and sets out on a small merchant's ship to explore the world. After running into and capturing a pirate crew, he sails to a small town to collect the bounties, he finds the town empty save for a lone dog in front of a pet shop and a strange ship similar to a carousel...
Line 6:
While most crossovers simply just have Naruto join Luffy's crew from some point in the orginal manga's storyline--in this case, the Buggy arc--the author of this fic tries something different. While Naruto does travel with Luffy at first (Luffy calls him his ships' resident hobo), he soon splits off and gets his own ship(which is orange, of course) and crew (which consists of main characters from certain arcs of One Piece) together to enter then Grand Line. While he does come across Luffy and Crew during some of the more major plot points (such as Alabasta), Naruto and his crew have their own adventures, running into many familiar faces from the One Piece-verse along the way.
 
It should be noted that, while Naruto is essentially a [[Gary Stu]] in this fic, being both semi-immortal and much more powerful than the majority of characters in the fic, this is one of the ''very'' few fanfics out there that actually does the concept right. Naruto does not simply jump in to every single fight and leave the others to just stand and watch, nor does he handle every enemy with no effort whatsoever.
 
The story is currently just past in the "Shabondy Archipelago" arc and 41 chapters in, and is easily one of the best crossover fics out there. It can be found [https://web.archive.org/web/20120424133231/http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6314806/1/Shinobi_of_the_High_Seas here].
 
{{tropelist}}
----
=== This fanfic contains examples of: ===
* [[A God Am I]]: Naruto ''hates'' being refereed to like this.
* [[Action Girl]]: {{spoiler|Nojiko}}, {{spoiler|Miss Valentine}}, and {{spoiler|Vivi}}, due to Naruto's relentless training. {{spoiler|And then Vivi is hit with the [[Distress Ball]].}}
Line 24 ⟶ 23:
* [[Early-Bird Cameo]]: Naruto & Crew come across {{spoiler|Boa Hancock}} much earlier in than Luffy did in the series.
** {{spoiler|Kizaru}} arrives at the end of Alabasta to go after Naruto. {{spoiler|And again after successfully rescuing Vivi and stopping the slave auctions.}}
* [[Elephant in Thethe Living Room]]: A literal case, in which Naruto gives his ship's doctor, {{spoiler|Muret}} Spandam's sword Funkfreed. For those of you unfamiliar with [[One Piece]], that's a sword that ''can turn into a freaking elephant!''
* [[Embarrassing Nickname]]: Miss Valentine is too fond of the nickname given to her by the Marines: {{spoiler|"Human Albatross".}}
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Even Kidd is disgusted with the slave auctions. Keep in mind, this is a guy who {{spoiler|killed everyone on an entire island}} [[Disproportionate Retribution|because they laughed at him]].
Line 42 ⟶ 41:
** "Human Albatross" Miss Valentine
** "The Plague" Soren
** And last but not least: "Seed of War"/"God Sage of Anarchy" Uzumaki Naruto
* [[Oblivious to Love]]: Suprisingly averted, given the character in question. Naruto is fully aware when one of the girls likes him for the most part. He just plays dumb until they are actually up front with him about it.
* [[Older Than They Look|Older Than He Looks]]: Naruto, obviously, though its recently been revealed that {{spoiler|he's only about 90 and not over 120}} like he's been saying. Turns out he was just bored of keeping track.
{{quote| '''Naruto:''' "Keeping track of time is useless if I can't die of old age. I forgot. I might as well be older. It doesn't matter, what's the difference? Old is old."}}
* [[Oh Crap]]: Naruto's crew, anytime their captain wants them to learn something. See [[Training Fromfrom Hell]] below.
* [[Poisonous Person]]: [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Soren the Plague]] can turn any of his body fluids into acid.
* [[Protectorate]]: C'mon, he wouldn't be Naruto if he wasn't like this to his precious people.
Line 53 ⟶ 52:
** Naruto's quest to find someone who knows how to make Ramen.
* [[Tenchi Solution]]: Seems to be headed toward Type-2.
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: All of Naruto's crew are much strong than their canon counterparts, thanks to Naruto's relentless training regiment.
* [[Training Fromfrom Hell]]: Naruto rountienly increases {{spoiler|Johnny}} and {{spoiler|Yosaku}}'s chakra weights, given to them to incease their speed and strength, whenever they adjust to the added weight...and to punish them....and to teach them something... [[Overly Long Gag|and whenever he feels like it]]...
* [[Tranquil Fury]]: Naruto reaches this after hearing everything Arlong put Nami through. [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown|The results ain't pretty]].
* [[Wanted Poster]]: Naruto is fairly indifferent when he sees his first wanted poster, save for that he's given the nickname "{{spoiler|Seed of War}}". His ''second'' poster and nickname "{{spoiler|God Sage of Anarchy}}", on the other hand...
Line 60 ⟶ 59:
* [[Weaksauce Weakness]]: Kizaru has been beaten twice by {{spoiler|using a mirror to reflect him away}}.
* [[Who Wants to Live Forever?]]?: While Naruto isn't ''too'' overly angsty about all his friends and loved ones having long since passed on, he does come to realize how boring being immortal is.
{{quote| '''Naruto (literally the first line of the fic):''' "*sigh* Boooreddddddddaaaaa!"}}
* [[World of Badass]]: To such an extent that in chapter 41, Naruto decides he's going to need {{spoiler|Kurama's help}} if he wants to continue sailing.
