History Fanfic / AceLives

These one-shots shift between genuine, serious ForWantOfANail situations to humorous [[CrackFic Crack Fics]]. For the latest chapter though, the alternation happens less.

** Blackbeard, who is as a big a ButtMonkey as ''Akainu''. Usually whatever thing that allows Ace to live also screws over Blackbeard in turn.

** Ancient Weapon Uranus, Luffy's straw hat. After it mutilates Doflamingo, the Marines basically ignore Ace and Whitebeard in favor of destroying it.
*** Because Luffy mentioned how Nami had worn Uranus as well, for all the Marines to hear, they assume she is some sort of nightmare herself to be able to withstand the Ancient Weapon. So to her horror, they massively raise her bounty to ''315 million'' and give her a new epithet: "Witch Queen" with the photo changed from Nami posing in a swimsuit to her angry face with burning red eyes and oversized fangs on her mouth.
*** Luffy's own bounty jumps to over ''one billion'' (something he didn't manage in canon until after the Whole Cake Island arc) over the TimeSkip, due to publicly using his Conqueror's Haki to quell Uranus after reacquiring it at the end of the battle.

* EnemyMine: In Chapter 19, the Marines and Whitebeard Pirates band together in an attempt to destroy Oden's journal (which is in Yamato's ownership) for their respective reasons: the Marines at Sengoku's command - to erase another piece of Roger's legacy, and the Whitebeards under Marco and his fellow commanders - to preserve their crew's dignity no matter the cost. [[EpicFail They do not succeed.]]

* YearOutsideHourInside: The Mafia Whitebeards only spend a couple of hours in the canon One Piece world to save Pirate Ace, but when they return home, they find out that ''six months'' have passed. This caused a massive shift in the BalanceOfPower in their world that eventually culminated in '''''the Mafia Straw Hats taking over America'''''. And it's implied that they stopped Russia from taking advantage of America's weakened state by helping Trafalgar Law take it over.

* BerserkButton: Buggy is enraged after overhearing Yamato claiming to be Oden, seeing it as an insult to his friend's name. Until Yamato reveals Oden's death

* AllYourPowersCombined: Uranus acquires a portion of the 'essence' of any who wear it that is trusted by its current owner, including the owner themselves, and in turn assimilates that person's abilities, which can then be used by anyone it uses as its host. Upon realizing this, Mihawk immediately picked a fight with its current host, the unfortunate Captain Randal Querrion Narlini, correctly deducing that it had all of Shanks's sword skills, in addition to its host having the left arm that Shanks lost. Uranus' power also keeps the host together until Luffy reclaims the hat which the Marine captain's body messily fell into pieces.
