(3rd Person POV)
A door opens into a new world. A world that is ruled by one Government ... the World Government. What can we say about this world? It is a world, where a corrupt World Government does everything to keep the status quo and the balance in the world, between Pirates and Marines. Neither one side can become too heavy, or the scale would tip and ruin what the World Government has in terms of authority and power.
However, as soon as this door opened, things changed. The future, once certain, became chaotic and then certain again. No one was the wiser of what happened. The world itself was confused. It was sure that something had happened, but the future was uncertain for a while, so what happened? Only one person knows what happened and that is the person stepping through the door.
Neoth had arrived in the World of One Piece and it was going to turn the world upside down.
.
The island Neoth landed on was a special one, with a sad fate. He had arrived at God Valley in West Blue. The reason for choosing this world was simple, he would have the best chance to damage the World Government in the future. There couldn't exist two Empires in one world. Only the Imperium would remain in the end. So using the chance, when they came to him on their own, was a good thing.
Sea Circle Calendar year 1457 is the current time and Neoth has chosen this time for a reason. He has plans for some people in this world. The Imperium can use talented people and 5 years ago, one of the most talented people has been born. A woman, known for her hunger rampages, Charlotte Linlin. When she was only 5 years old and something that must have happened recently, Linlin shattered Jorul's sword with her bare hands before grabbing him by the beard and throwing him onto the ground, fatally injuring him. Jorul is a giant and she is 5 years old.
Others also had some potential, but they would come later. Right now, Neoth was on his way to the palace where the current king was dying. It was the perfect time to get introduced and take over before, the next King was decided. The current King didn't have a child ... or so many thought. How happy they would be when they find out that he 'did' have a child and he has returned to take his rightful place.
Neoth was going to bet that person. He walked into the palace. However, the guards didn't want to let him in ... or did they?
"Hey! Who are you?! You can't go in th-", the guard said but then stopped at once. He suddenly 'recognised' Neoth.
"uh ... young Master. You have returned!! Please go in quick, his Majesty your father is sick.", he says and Neoth only nods his head. This trend continues all through the palace. Everyone suddenly recognises the young Prince and is more than happy to finally see him again. Finally, he reached the King's chambers and was of course let inside.
The King who saw Neoth was suddenly 'enlightened'. His eyes widened when they saw the glorious figure of the Emperor. Everyone saw the Emperor differently.
"You ... your Grace ... I am glad-", he said and then died, with tears in his eyes. Neoth wasn't that big of an asshole to change the memories of a dying man. He simply let him see a micro-fraction of his aura. The old King died with a smile on his face, leaving everything to the Emperor.

.
Many things changed in God Valley. The island was aptly named. What better name could the main seat of the Emperor of Mankind have when he visits the world of One Piece? ... Don't tell him I said that though.
[*ERROR ... ERROR*]
The inhabitants of God Valley one after the other underwent programs that would elevate them to worthy subjects of the Imperium. Those who had talents in fighting and warfare were trained thoroughly by the Adeptus Astartes. The Adeptus Terranes had been renamed after the first world was left to explore a new one. The stars were now within reach after all.
Those who had a talent for strategy or organisation were given those jobs. This way the gain of the island was maximised. But it was being kept a secret. The World Government could go s*ck d*ck for all they cared. On the contrary, the taxes they paid were reduced very very slowly. This way no one would notice and when they did, it would already be too late. Granted there was already nothing the World Government could do, but this was kingdom-building and scheming.
One year this took and after one year, the Emperor set sail for the first time in this world. He didn't take anyone with him. He wanted to stay incognito for now at least. He could summon his armour and weapons with a thought. Besides, he was so OP right now, compared to this world, nothing could threaten him.
.
The Emperor sailed north towards the Calm Belt. There was no one sailing with him. He was controlling the ship and leading it to where he wanted. When he finally reached the Calm Belt, the winds stopped blowing and the sea creatures suddenly became much bigger. A second later, a ginormous Sea King emerged from the sea and with him about a dozen more.
[Picture]
They looked down at the tiny boat and the Emperor looked back. No one said anything. The communication didn't need words or sounds. After a while, the Sea Kings ... bowed their heads!!! They recognised royalty when they saw it. And the radiance of the Emperor outshines everyone.
That was how he gained his first pets in this world. He continued his journey, followed by the giant Sea Kings, who took care of pesky pirates or marines. Until he finally reached the island that would come to be known as Whole Cake Island. He stepped on the island and approached the presence he felt in the middle. He could feel the pain and sadness emanating from said person. He knew what was going on.
"WHERE DID YOU GOOOO??? MOTHEEERRR?!!", a loud scream was heard telling me what was going on.
It was the day that Mother Carmel and the children vanished. For Linlin it was her birthday. This day was the most fun she had ever had, surrounded by the smiles of everyone from the Sheep's House who had similar circumstances. And the very 'kind' Mother whom she adored.
All while eating the sweet sweet Croquembouche that she loved, Linlin's tears wouldn't stop. What a wonderful day it was ... her tears blurred her vision ... so that she eventually ate all the people who were attending her birthday party.
.
Two people witnessed this event, and a third one arrived just a moment later.
One was someone who cared a great deal about the Lamb's house and was dropping by for a visit. A warrior of Elbaf. Horrified by what he saw, he ran off! And he never again set foot on that island.
Eventually, his story reached the ears of Elbaf itself and the rest of the Giant race. Charlotte Linlin grew to be so repugned by the Giants that they refrained from even saying her name.
The other witness was a chef and former, ruined pirate who had been living on the island for some time: Streusen.
To him, the sight was positively hilarious. His power was an ability to change the various things of this world into ingredients: The Kukukuku no Mi.
.
Finally, we have the third one, the Emperor himself arriving a moment later. He saw the Giant leaving and Streusen approached Linlin and decided to intervene. With a thought, he appeared behind Streusen and gave him a tap on his head. Streusen was suddenly confused about where he was and what he was doing there. He left shortly after.
Finally, it was only the crying Linlin and the Emperor who were left on the island. The Emperor approached the young girl and smiled at her.
"Greetings, young one. Why are you crying?"
"Mister, who are you? Have you seen Mother?", Linlin asked.
"You are going to have to be strong now, child. I can't help you get Mother back, but I can help you get your friends back, would you like that?", the Emperor asked her. He knew that getting back Mother Carmel was stupid, but her friends were a different matter.
"Sniff ... really?! Can you get them back?", she asked him and he nodded. The Emperor snapped his fingers and suddenly from inside the house the children could be heard. Linlin hearing this, suddenly jumped up and ran into the house where she saw the children all confused about what happened.
"Linlin?! What happened?", they asked. The Emperor in his grace decided to remove the memory of them being eaten.
"Everyone!! You're back!!! I ... sniff ... I'm so glad ...", Linlin said and began to cry again.
.
It took a while to explain to the children what had happened. No one except the Emperor knew of course, but he said that he didn't know. Mother Carmel was seen as having disappeared for good. All the children cried about that and the Emperor was there to soothe their pain somewhat. He was already a better parent than the OG Emperor was in Warhammer 40k. But let's forget about that.
"Well children, what do you want to do now? What are your dreams?", the Emperor asked as they were sitting around a fire eating some light dinner.
"Dreams?"
"We never had something like that."
"Yeah, what would we dream about?"
"Food?", Linlin asked.
"Haha, Linlin always likes food."
"Loving food is a good thing Linlin, but it can't be the thing that your life revolves around. What are your dreams? What would you like to see?"
"I would like to ... have a place where everyone can live eye-to-eye!", Linlin said. She had heard that once before and thought it was an awesome idea.
"Eye-to-Eye?"
"It will be awesome if everyone can become big like me! If there were a lot of countries like that, this world would be far more peaceful than it is! Everyone would be so much happier!", she says excitedly and then sadly again, after she remembers Mother.
The Emperor smiled at her naivety and pure soul. It seemed like the notorious Pirate Big Mom didn't start out that way.
"So your dream is peace?"
"Yeah! I'm gonna make a country that'll make Mother happy.", she said and the other children cheered her on.
"While wanting peace is a good dream, doing it for someone else will only result in you losing motivation later on. Instead do it because you want to and not because you think Mother would have liked that."
"Hm?"
"Don't sweat the details. Besides, if your goal is to have everyone be the same size as you, that is a simple thing.", the Emperor said and then in the next moment, the bodies of all the children and the Emperor himself, began to grow until they were the same size as Linlin was.
However, before she could comprehend what was going on, everyone, including Linlin became smaller again.
"You see, size is but a simple thing. I can do this for you if you wish, but being different isn't a bad thing. If there were two of you, that would be much sadder. So embrace your specialities and stand proud.
Come, it is time that you all are given a proper home."
.
The Emperor took all the Orphans and began constructing a much better and bigger house than the Sheep's House. The children observed in wonder and awe as trees were pulled out of the ground and the wood was processed in the air before the wood was then placed in the correct place.
From that day on, the children had a true home and a true family. The world would not be ready for what would come out of Whole Cake Island.
