One Piece: Treasure Cruise is an Alternate Universe (AU) site where the straw hats and all the other famous pirates of the animanga do not exist.
The Time frame for the site is around the same time frame of the Animanga so the technology and such are on par with what is seen in the show though some advances can be made within reason of course.
There should be no mention of cannon characters as none of them exist and although there may be certain things that are similar to the animanga as this site is based off of it, the animanga is not considered cannon on this site.
Plot
Seventy years ago the three way war going on within the sky was still happening with high casualties on all sides. Because of this a truce was initiated. Each island would have its own independence away from rule of the other islands. The truce would hold so long as they stayed on their respective island and did not venture off into the territory of the other islands. Although there have been news about multiple Birkans, Shandians, or Skypieans dying while on one of the other islands the open, all-out fighting has stopped and a lot of the killing has been toned down. However, this has not stopped many sky islanders from leaving their home in search of a peaceful life down in the Blue Oceans not knowing that they were going from one multiple century long war to another.
Around sixty years ago the revolutionaries had a secret base within East Blue on Colors Island. The secret base there was becoming so successful due to the fact that none would suspect any trouble out of the weakest ocean in the world, so much so that they would be surprised to run into high ranking officials of the revolution there. This went on for about ten years until the World Government finally got wind of the location of the hideout. The fight was brought to the base and the leader of the revolution at the time stayed behind to fight off the attack giving his people time to escape. Due to the public execution of the leader of the revolution having hurt the recruiting process for a few years it was then that the revolution decided to work through a system of council so that there would never again be just one leader of the revolution but five one for each blue and one for the Grand Line as a whole. Forty years ago people began to move back to colors island and multiple towns and villages have sprang up there each named after a specific color.
In the present time the fighting has become less open warfare and more vying for islands and power. However fighting between the revolution and the World Government still persist because of this the World Government has increased taxes. This has caused unrest in many of the civilians and has bolstered the ranks of the revolution. However in a move that no one saw coming there have been several individuals who feel as if the revolution is just as bad as the World Government and have gone to sea on their own to live by their own code and to enjoy their freedom. These pirates have sparked the Golden Pirate Era which has also sparked an increase in bounty hunters which is a fine way to earn a living and pay those raised taxes without joining the marines revolutionaries or the pirates.

[attr="class","mouths1"]Yotsuba Island, it was an island with a heavy Marine influence but Red did not care. Every island had some kind of Marine or Revolution influence these days. He was simply here because his freedom had brought him here. They happened to be not too far away from Shells town where the Marine base was when he and Tsai decided to low off some steam with a little joint training in the form of a sparring match. Nothing too serious Red did not even plan on using his transformations. Not out of disrespect to Tsai as if he were fighting seriously there was no way he would win, hell he wasn't even sure his fruit would be able to help him win a fight with Tsai. Out of the group he was the better fighter hands down.
Red was not planing on using his fruit because he was training himself to fight without it and Tsai would be perfect for it. Mainly because he would be able to kick his ass regardless but Red would not have to worry about being hurt too badly as they were friends, hell he thought of Tsai as more like an older brother (even though he was so small). They stood across from each other in an open field ready to go at one another. "Hey you ready for this small fry" Red joked knowing that this fight was going to be rough on him due to Tsai's training but hoping that his natural talent for fighting and his strength and durability will allow him to at least put up a good fight.

[attr="class","mouths1"]Tsai had been riled up by the height comment as Red had thought he would. It was funny getting the older yet smaller man all angry. Even so Red knew he would pay for it as soon as the fight started. The only chance he would have of winning a one on one fight with Tsai is if he was allowed to transform into one of his dragon forms and even then it would be a long shot. But this was not a training session where Red intended to win this was a training session where Red planned to get better and fighting against a better opponent would always make you better. He also had another motive for not wanting to use his fruit, he wanted to be able to take a beating and rely on his his strength and not his fruit just in case on day he would not be able to use his fruit while fighting.
Tsai rushed him and Red was amazed with his speed and mobility. He could hardly keep track of him what he saw was more of a blonde blur than a human being. The blur jumped and extended a kick to Red's gut, Red did not want to be hit by the kick at all. He knew Tsai was not very strong and without his martial arts training Red might have been able to take the kick without it hurting at all but Tsai had a way of making his strikes hurt even without the added strength behind them. However, Red knew that he would not be able to react in time to move out the way so instead he decided he would use Tsai own incredible fighting skill against him.
The kick hit its mark and Red felt momentarily stunned but his strong body was able to push him forward through the pain. He attempted to grab at Tsai's foot that hit him pinning his leg to his abs before spinning on his heels. The kick had begun Red spin and instead of trying to fight it he embraced it and attempted to take Tsai with him before letting him go mid spin attempting to throw him hard to the ground. Red would be sent to the ground as well but not as hard as Tsai would be and when he hit the ground he would roll to distribute the impact as well as spring back to his feet. His stomach hurt and he knew there would be a bruise but he did not want Tsai to know that. He pulled out some rope from his tool belt with a smile "You are going to have to try harder than that". Tossing the rope with all his might Red used one of his Rope Action techniques to wrap Tsai's wrist with one end and a boulder with the other before pulling the rope and causing both the boulder and Tsai to fly toward one another at maximum speed.
Technique Used: Rope Action: Round Turn After setting themselves in between two people the user of this technique will grab them both with rope and pull them in while ducking. This causes the two targets to hit each other at such a pace that it would be akin to receiving a blow from a Rookie level attack. Meaning that they could have a mild concussion if their head collided as well as a sense of dizziness and bruising. After colliding both targets will be sent back ten feet. This technique can also be used to force a person to collide with an object though it will not be as effective this way.
[attr="class","lying1"]✎ Tsai , notes here don't make them too long
Tsai knew red was capable of withstanding some of the hardest blows and even with Tsai's amount of strength he was able to push through the pain and counter Tsai's attack, although his kick did hit it's intended target. Red would latch on to Tsai spin him and then drive the man into the ground. With Red's size compared to Tsai, this was nothing for the larger man to overpower and send the blond crashing into the ground. Tsai knew from experience if you or your opponent falls to the ground, the battle could be over in an instance. He was reluctant to use his fruit abilities, but it seemed red was pushing him into the direction of using them from the jump. The force of the attack wasn't enough to cause much damage, but it would leave a large bruise on his back in the days to come. Tsai would go on to use the Nikyu Nikyu Transmission ability to violently push the air underneath his body, allowing Tsai to seemingly disappear from the point of contact and reappear in the air above red. The violent burst of air propelled Tsai 10ft into the air, he would then use red's head as leverage and push himself higher into the air, while adding force to the jump off in an attempt to push red to his knees.
" You sly gecko, you planned on me using my fruit from the start didn't you? Well, If you think you can survive without going papa lizard on me then lets give it a go" Tsai said after doing a black flip in the air, then landing about 15ft away from red. He made sure to make a good bit of distance between him and his teammate, before he would continue his assault. He smiled at red, shaking his head and pulling off the long black gloves that concealed the Paw print shapes engraved on his palm. He once again felt into a fighting stance and looked at red, wondering how he abilities would affect the boy's body. He was larger than most and could take a hit, however Tsai's powers were like red's and uniquely strong despite their rank. The blond would calm his breathing and yet against launch himself from the ground, this time not into air but instead along the ground, rushing towards red. He neglected to utilize the paw paw transmission as that was one of the techs that caused a toll on his body, and even the one usage had caused aches in his body.
Once Tsai was in range, aimed two opened palmed strikes to red's stomach yet again, there were nothing special about the strikes despite Tsai's above average strength from his training. Tsai was at a disadvantage because of his size, however because of Red's size it was easier for Tsai to land more hits on his gut, which Tsai had begin his assault on. The blonde was planning to weaken Red's body to the point of even his normal attack hurt the youngster. Tsai would then try to move out of the way, after his assault in attempt to curb a counter attack from happening, if this would be successful, the blonde would end up on the right side of red, readying himself for his next attack.

Paw Paw Transmission is one of the advance techniques of the Nikyu Nikyu no mi. Utilizing the abilities of the pawpaw fruit, the eater is able to violently repel the air around their body, increasing the speed of the user's movements. This particular technique unlike the others, can be utilize without the paw shaped prints on the palm of his hands. This technique has the potential to be very useful, however at Tsai's level the burst of air isn't strong enough for super feats of speed just yet. Though, with his skills Tsai is able to move faster than most rookies ( basically a rookie without a speed Sa or other special ability) Additionally, the tech leaves a paw print shape crater in the ground. It should be noted that this technique puts a strain on Tsai's body, meaning he could only use it three times before he needs to rest.

[attr="class","mouths1"]Red's plan was successful and he watched as Tsai literally bounced off the ground then used his head as leverage to jump even higher. Tsai had used his fruit and Red took that as a moral victory. He had forced him to use his fruit and so long as he did not transform himself he would take this match as a win no matter what happened. Tsai goaded him again calling him a lizard and Red ground his teeth Tsai certainly knew how to annoy him.
"Someone had to use their fruit" Red was smiling as he tossed two small pieces of rope toward Tsai. As he got within range to hit Red the ropes would hit his wrist with enough force to bring his hands into the air and send him back a few feet. The ropes would make makeshift handcuffs restraining Tsai from using his paws. Red would then take out his hammer and rush forward to stroke Tsai in the knees hopefully hampering his speed making it easier for him to keep up with the movements of Tsai.
[attr="class","lying1"]✎ Tsai, notes here don't make them too long
Red wasn't a skilled as Tsai was when it came to actual combat or form, but he used his skills in a way that best suited him. Thinking on the fly and utilizing none combat items in actual combat. It didn't surprise Tsai when red made the comment on him using his fruit, in fact Tsai should've figured it out sooner. The navigator wouldn't allow red to get him so riled up as he did before, the ropes would wrap around Tsai hands and constrict his palms. Tsai was unaware that Red had paid so much attention to his fruit, it actually made the small man feel good inside. No matter how Red would personally take this fight, the fact that he would go on to learn Tsai's weaknesses made it obvious that Tsai was acknowledged by the man. It would go without saying that Tsai felt the same way about Red, he knew that the only way to beat Red was in his human form.
Red had been clever the entire fight, and though he had bounded Tsai's hands and limited his aim. The vagabond navigator would still use the power of the nikyu nikyu no mi. Red was right to tie up Tsai's hands, as most of his offensive attacks utilized the paw engraved on his palms. Tsai wasn't going to use the transmission tech again, as it would put further strain on his body. Instead the boy utilized the Paw Paw Cannon technique to launch himself into the air, the force of the blast was equal in strength to the transmission tech, however the cannon was an offensive ability. As such the destructive force behind the move also launched a sizable amount of dust and fragments of rock as it created a paw print shaped crater in the ground. As Tsai soared through the air, hands still bound. He would utilize his superior mobility to twist his body into a hard kick, aiming for Red's head.
As Tsai landed, he would take this time to utilize a great and power battle tactic, being a historian by nature and merchant by trade. Tsai had read of the events when the special tactic was used, it was one of the strongest techs known to humanity and didn't even take much energy. Tsai would jump back a few paces, putting about 12ft between him and red, "Ha RED... Now i have you... I'll use my trump card. The strongest battle tactic known to man" Tsai said jumping around like a lunatic with his hands bounded, he waited for red to take the bait before he would turn around and take over running. "Battle Tactic # 69: Run AWAAAYYYY" Tsai said as he took off running down the closest trail his could find. Unknowingly running closer and closer to the marine base that was near by.

[attr="class","mouths1"]Red's plan to cover his palms had worked. He figured since he wore the glives and only took them off when he wanted to use his fruit that his paws actually had to touch what he wanted to manipulate and repel he was correct in this. However something he did not know was that Tsai was still able to shoot his air cannon like attack while his paws was covered. That was new information that Red would have to remember doe their next sparring match. "Oh yeah and what tactic is that huh" Red mused.
When Tsai explained his tactic as running away Red could not help but laugh. Tsai ran off toward the marine base and Red figured why not chase him down. Although he was sure this was some kind of scheme of Tsai's he wanted to see where it would go. After a few moments though this would all be ruined as Tsai had unknowingly run into a group of six training Marines. The Marines saw Tsai running away and Red chasing him and just assumed that Tsai needed their help. As they surrounded Red he pulled out more rope with a smile on his face ready for some real fun. Utilizing the same tactic he used on Tsai and the boulder he grabbed two marines and brought them together head first with a sickening crash. The other Marines backed away making sure they were not in range of his attack waiting for the two who were down to get back up as it was clear to them that they were dealing with someone dangerous.
