Character development is key. Fanfictions explore how Ace and Luffy grow under Garp's influence. Maybe Luffy becomes more disciplined in some stories, or Ace learns to be more open - hearted, all thanks to their interactions with Garp and each other.
One possible plot could be that Luffy gets into a really tough situation during his adventures, perhaps surrounded by powerful enemies on an unknown island. In desperation, he calls out to Garp for help. Garp, despite his tough exterior, races to his grandson's aid. Along the way, he might reminisce about Luffy's growth and how far he has come.
Luffy, of course. He and Sabo have a deep history. They grew up together and Sabo was like a brother to him. Their reunion would be filled with joy, hugs, and probably a lot of tears. Luffy would be over the moon to have Sabo back in his life and on his ship.
They would probably be very surprised at first. After all, they might not have expected to ever meet Luffy's mother. Then they would be excited to learn more about Luffy's past from her.
Well, his parents might be a bit shocked at first. I mean, Luffy's crew is full of such unique characters. They could start by testing the crew's loyalty to Luffy. And then, they might offer some valuable advice or even some special training. Like, if his father has some unique skills, he could pass them on to the crew to make them even stronger for their future adventures.
In addition to Luffy and Garp, other characters could also play important roles. For example, some of Luffy's crewmates like Zoro or Nami might be present when Luffy calls Garp. They could add their own perspectives and reactions. Also, there could be some marines around Garp when he receives the call, and their reactions to Garp's decision to go to Luffy could also be part of the story.
Obviously, they will support Luffy all the way. He is their captain, and they have complete faith in him. They have been through so much together, and they know Luffy's strength and determination.
If a marine joins Luffy's crew in a fanfic, it could be quite interesting. At first, there might be a lot of distrust among the crew members. After all, they've been fighting against marines for a long time. But if the marine has a strong sense of justice that aligns with Luffy's own view of right and wrong, they could gradually be accepted. For example, the marine might bring in some new combat techniques or knowledge about the navy's operations that could be useful to the Straw Hats.
One popular ace luffy garp fanfiction is 'The Bonds of Family'. It delves deep into the complex relationships between Ace, Luffy, and Garp. It shows how their different personalities interact and how their family bond influences their actions.
