Authors

akurosa

Recommended by: Zephyr 7, Niniviel
Pairings: None. Focus is on friendship.
The author's style is very well-written. The focus is on Luffy and Zoro friendship, with a good helping of the other Straw Hats and other characters on the side. Breathtaking In So Many Ways is an excellent story of each of the crew (all of them involving Luffy in some way)'s reaction to finding Zoro after his Heroic Sacrifice from Kuma. Moments Like This are an amazing collection of Luffy and Zoro moments throughout the series. Next Time Won't You Sing With Me has sweet and short one-shots based on the alphabet relating to the Straw Hats' interaction (with others like Ace and Vivi) with each other.

Recommended by: bakafia
Pairings: Mainly focus on friendship, except for a few Zoro/Luffy old stories.
The author never fail to deliver sweet, heartwarming nakamaship one-shots. Through stories like A Funny, Traveling Tale or Chasing Flowers or even Perpetuate Warmth, and obviously Grateful-day; you can almost feel the crew's love for their captain (and vice versa) melts in your mouth.

Recommended by: Zephyr 7, Pezt
Pairings: None. Focuses on friendship.
The author really does their research when it comes to things and their writing style is just delightful to read. Velkyn Karma does a great job writing the Straw Hats in-character and their interactions with each other. Fortunae Gauntlet is an awesome story where the crew gets involved in a fight-to-the-death combat challenge. Mindshattered is another amazing yet heartwrenching story where Sanji has to help a severely starved and tortured Zoro. Muzzled was a hilariously entertaining one-shot where Zoro, Nami and Usopp get captured by the Marines and Zoro makes sure that no one separates them by resorting to biting any Marine that comes near them. And Velkyn Karma's latest completed story Asteria Nightmare has the crew fighting for their survival and to get their dreams back that were stolen by the monsters inhabiting the island.

Recommended by: Polaris
Pairings: Zoro/Sanji
If you have any interest in this pairing, this is the author to read. There are a number of interesting and well-thought out AU universes, such as the Medival AU and the Merman 'Verse, some interesting one-shot A Us like Renegade Queen (Sanji's mother lives and tries to save all of her children) and First Breath of Air (Sanji never escapes Germa, Zoro rescues him when the Straw Hats come into conflict with Judge anyway), and a number of canon-adjacent works. The author enjoys taking common tropes and spinning them out into long and thoughtful stories. Only one or two stories approach a 'Mature' rating; everything else is PG-13 or below, so if you want to enjoy plot and characterization over smut, these are a safe bet.

General Fics

Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance. Arranged by alphabetical order.

Castle by mNakahara98

Recommended by: CandySodaQueen
Status: Dead; last updated December 2019
Synopsis: Vinsmoke Sanjina's no damsel-in-distress. For she was trained by Owner Zeff who raised her as his daughter. This is the story if Sanji was a woman from the first place. What her life will be? The story begins when Sanjina was taken to Whole Cake Island and what if she determines to change her family, her siblings within several days before getting "hitched"? She wants to escape and for once, she has become a damsel-in-distress as her crews are determined to save her. But her older twin brother Ichiji once told her: "Princess cannot be with pirates."
Comments: This is a Fem!Sanji AU story. However, unlike other gender-bend AUS, this isn't just a replacement of pronouns. Instead, Sanjina is a different person with different decisions. It also somewhat humanized the Vinsmoke Brothers.

Characters: Sanji, Gin, Strawhats, Red-Leg Zeff
Comments: I love the writing style and the way it makes me want to see Sanji grow healthy and happy and all (like honestly I did not care for him that much before). It made me cry a lot but its a story about growing and healing, and the love feels very warm. It is tagged with: #zeff's story is the story of an immigrant parent and you cannot convince me otherwise - and that's why I read it no lie - totally worth it.

Synopsis: That one time that Rayleigh got drunk and crashed Ace's execution. A mixture of crack, humour and heartwarming fluff all-around. Ghosts, ships landing onto the platform and medical wizardry applies.
Comment: There is an OC in this, but she fits well into the One Piece world and fills a role that we know exists or once existed. This role: Garp's ex wife. Well worth reading once, because you ain't never read a fic like this.

Lionheart by cyan96

Recommended by: eeveelutionlover2000
Status: Hiatus
Synopsis: The light overhead isn't from Minion island's overcast sky but instead a steel plated ceiling shining down fluorescence, glass and plastic bottles rattling on shelves against the walls. Everywhere there's monitors and familiar machinery and the distinct tang of antiseptic, sharp beyond the memory sense of blood and snow. For half a second Law looks at it all very blankly and thinks, What The Hell. Is he dreaming. Is he hallucinating. Is he just plain dead. His sight-line completes the rotation of this impossibility to fall upon speckled jeans and a long sweeping coat. And the man standing in front of Law has the blankest expression Law's ever seen. And the man standing in front of Law has Law's father's face.

Underneath Law's blood-slicked fingers, Cora-san's pulse shudders.

(This is a story where the past and the present collide. Wherein thirteen year old Trafalgar Law and twenty-six year old Rocinante tumble sideways through time-space via the blue desperation of a newly eaten devil fruit, from Minion island to a future distant. Right, unwittingly, onto the submarine deck of a another Law shortly after Doflamingo’s fall.)

The story starts when the ASL brother are 8 and continues to Marineford and beyond.Told in series of connected oneshots. A good read despite having m/m, f/f pairings since the author focuses mainly on the non-romantic relationships between characters such as the ASL brothers and the Redhair Pirates and Strawhat-nakamaship. The romance is used simply to enhance the story rather than detract from it and the author is careful to keep everyone's personalities close to their canon selves.Tags: ASL Brothers, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Parenthood, Fluff, Humor, Angst, Romance, Asexual Relationship, Action, Hurt/comfortTeam as Family

Trope page here.
Synopsis: "After becoming the new Spirit of Summer, Ace struggles with the knowledge that one day he will be forced to leave everyone he loves behind. Jack questions how far he would go for those he cares about. And Luffy, unaware of Ace's rebirth, is plagued by visions of his brother's death and other horrors. But those nightmares may be more than just dreams…" Ace is Jack's little brother and the dream of freedom and no regrets take on a new meaning. WARNING: torture.
Pairing(s): No romantic shippings. Plenty of Family relationships.
Comments: A fantastic masterpiece on how Jack Frost is an older brother to the ASL brothers, especially Ace and how death cannot stop Ace. This story focuses primarily on Ace and the Whitebeard pirates but there's plenty of Straw Hats and Red Haired Pirates and Guardians to make this family-oriented story come even more to life! I read this story in two days' time totaling to about 20 hours of reading—I still want to read it again even though I just finished it! Bring plenty of tissues! -Nequam_Tenshi

Heroes of the New World by Zaru and Juubi-K

Trope page here
Status: Ongoing
Crossover: My Hero Academia
Synopsis: Izuku Midoriya manages to defeat All For One, only for the villain to try to take the boy down with him. Though Izuku survives through the actions of another, he is then teleported to the world of One Piece and crash-lands on Onigashima, the base of the mighty Beast Pirates. He is found by Yamato, the daughter-who-identifies-as-a-boy of the crew's captain, Kaido. The two quickly become friends, and Yamato promises to help Izuku escape while Izuku intends to remove the explosive collar placed on Yamato by her father. But can they do all of this without arousing suspicion? Of course they can!
Comments: An excellent story that has its own original flavor while still sticking true to the themes and characters of both One Piece and My Hero Academia. Izuku and Yamato have great chemistry both as friends and as heroes, and the threats they face are challenging enough to make sure the fic does not get boring or feel dragged out.

The Blue Pheasant Flies On by kingoffire1

Recommended by: Kraotop
Crossover with: Fairy Tail
Status: Ongoing
Synopsis: Aokiji dies in his death-match against Akainu on Punk Hazard only to awaken in a strange place with heavy injuries. Now he is living out his second chance at life in this world while the circumstances of what happened constantly nag at the back of his mind.
Comments: A very interresting fic introducing a very underused character to Fairy Tail in a very believable and smooth way that should make most fanfic writers faint in shame. Aokiji is not an op Marty Stu fixing everyone's problem without a hitch, he is presented with his own flaws that he works through, in fact few characters that have more than two paragraphs dedicated to them feel static. It's quite heartwarming with solid characters who won't let you down. A very well done fic that is only impaired by the slow updating speed.
