This story takes place after the Silver Age of Monkey D. Luffy as Pirate King and “The Hero” Coby as Fleet Admiral. Following an age of romanticism, adventure and relative peace, this age is a fairly dark one. This new age of piracy came along with it new waves of pirates, criminals, and outlaws, ravaging the seas like never before. The Tenryuubito, frightened with the changes in time and the world below them, sought security and protection. With a mutual agreement with the Gorousei, they ordered the World Government to announce that the last stronghold of justice, the Marines, were to flee and begin to rebuild themselves within the confines of the Red Line; thus leaving the Four Seas lawless and unprotected, their only option being to fend for themselves as best they can. Separating themselves from the rest of the world, the ties of the World Government and Tenryuubito with individual kingdoms slowly disappeared.

If one would think that without an organization to protect and govern over the seas, crimes and other unlawful acts would send the world into a complete state of pandemonium ruled by pirates, they would be right. Yet silently lurking in the shadows, was the formation of an organization of elites. Rumors of their presence were whispered within all realms and circles of power: Piracy, the World Government, the Marines, and Kingdoms of any affiliation alike; the Pirate Hunters. Upon the ordered reformation of the Marines, despite their lack of sufficient manpower and resources, they were forced to step out of hiding, revealing themselves openly to the world as a worldwide police force rather than a company of powerful soldiers for war.

Your Role In the Story
Now 50 years into the future, you find yourself within the ranks of the Black Flags, an uprising organization that has only existed for just over a decade. Members of the Black Flags range from former marines, ex-pirates, reformed criminals, bounty hunters, and other individuals from all walks of life who have banded together to achieve one common goal; to prevent the world from plunging into complete chaos. Your role in this story is to play a freshly enlisted recruit who will eventually rise through the ranks of the organization. Hopefully, you would be able to contribute to the restoration of peace throughout the seas or at least make a name for yourself in the process.
