But in this post, I will be writing about some of the most popular One Piece fanfiction according to hits received in Archive Of Our Own.
Keep reading to find out more about some of these amazing and original stories.
1. This Bites!
This story really has everything including your favorite One Piece characters, straw hat pirates, and muchmore.
It is a sort of a time travel story with people ending up in a different world than their own.
There is a funny and witty way the writer has described the many terrible situations they find themselves in.
This makes you want to read more and find out what happens next.
The writer first published a chapter in 2015 and has been writing and revising ever since.
So we can’t really be sure if it is truly finished now.
2. Watashitachi wa Roger kaizoku desu (we still stand proud)
The rough translation of the title is “We are the Roger Pirates”.
And that immediately gives a big hint to what this story is about.
The most important character from One Piece we see here is Crocus.
The other main characters are mostly original characters made up by the writer.
The Roger Pirates are a big influence on this story and the writer incorporated them perfectly.
There are 30 chapters total so far and the story has over 186,000 hits already.
3. Beginning the Next Dream
If you enjoy a bit of a time travel story then this might be the fanfic for you.
In this story, we see Monkey D. Luffy travel to another world.
Here he is no longer a Pirate King, but he has another important role to play.
There are 6 chapters in total, which makes it one of the shorter stories.
But this absolutely does not mean it is any less good.
And the number of hits, over 146,000, confirms that statement.
4. For Better or For Worse
This story is also a time travel story about Monkey D. Luffy the Pirate king.
But it is very different from the previous one.
Luffy is trying to do better this time and help his friends.
And he lets nothing stand in his way of completing this newfound mission.
This story has a pretty large fanbase and a lot of fans mention how this story made them laugh and cry all at once.
There are 14 chapters so far to enjoy and over 137,000 people already have done so.
5. Flashy Brotherhood
The focus of this story is on Ace and Buggy.
The chapters alternate between these two and this way you get a good insight into what is happening.
And the story basically tells us what would have happened if Buggy met the ASL brothers as children.
The writer admitted that the story is actually inspired by another fanfic as well as the One Piece series.
There are 68 chapters to this story, but the chapters aren’t very long.
This makes it even easier to read the entire story.
We can conclude that the story is finished so be sure to check it out.
6. Of Pop Greens and Tangerines
This is another time travel story.
The main characters in this are Usopp and Nami and there are also a few minor characters we know from the series.
They have traveled a few years back in time and are hell-bent on saving themselves and everyone else.
There is a trigger warning at the top of this story.
The trigger warning is for graphic depictions of violence.
The writing style is very original because the writer switches between a logbook entry and telling the story as it is happening.
For now, there are 85 chapters, written over the span of two years.
And it doesn’t seem to be finished just yet.
7. Boy with a scar
In this story, the writer took to themselves to reveal bits of the backstory of Luffy.
Through this story, we slowly find out more about what happened to him.
And we see how all these things helped him become the Pirate king.
There is no romance in this story, but there are shows of affection.
This way the writer really puts the focus on character development and not just what people might want to happen.
The writer started on this story back in 2016 and did some revising in the past.
But so far there are already 31 chapters written.
And the writer did let us know that there is still more to come.
8. Unsinkable
This is also one of the older fanfics in this list as it was written in 2018.
In this story, we also follow Luffy, the Pirate King.
Luffy is the captain of the Straw Hats, but he isn’t entirely human.
Somehow the water affects him strangely, which makes for some interesting events.
This story has over 94,000 hits and has received many kudos.
The writer stated that this story was inspired by another fanfic about the same subject.
So be sure to check that one out as well if you liked this.
9. Eternity of love
The base for this story is a very interesting and original one.
Because it is a story where you as the reader are an actual part of the storyline.
Your choices can influence the outcome of the story, and many of the characters show an interest in the Reader.
This type of writing does make it a bit hard to follow all the storylines at some points.
So it is very important to carefully read everything and take your time to fully sink in.
It is a massive story with 187 long chapters so far.
And it looks like there is more to come.
10. Finding your Wings
In this story, we see more of Roronoa Zoro and Kuina.
You can read this story as a ‘what if’ tale.
And this goes mostly for Kuina and the choices she has made and is yet to make.
It isn’t really a reincarnation story, but more a different twist to the existing story of Kuina.
Kuina is forced to marry Zoro and this is absolutely something she does not want.
Of course, she does everything she can to sabotage this upcoming marriage but not everything goes as planned.
There are 41 chapters to the story so far and maybe more to come.
So if you love the story of Kuina and wish to read about a different ending, then be sure to check out this fanfic.
