First I'd like to say I'm surprised and grateful so many people are enjoying my little personal project here. Thank you! =D Now on to the madness...
Continuing their journey Petie tries to learn how to control his fruit power better... with perdictable results. Also they set sail to rob pirates, now is the time to put that conviction to the test! How will they fair? Read to find out!

“Ugh… Jules?”
“Yeah Petie?”
“Why didn’t anyone tell us about seasickness?”
“Dunno… why is the room still spinning?”
“Dunno…”
The two boys had never actually gone out to sea before which meant they were both woefully unprepared to deal with seasickness. They’d spend the last two days either hanging over the boats side with their padded bottom stuck in the air or too dazed to do more than lay in their beds and groan. Luckily by day three they’d gained enough of their “Sea Legs” that they could move around the ship with something other than a crawl (they were actually thankful for the soft padded floors after that) and they began to adjust to their new home away from home.
Jules had adapted to having nothing for anyone above the age of toddler at his disposal far faster than Petie expected and soon the two had fallen into some kind of routine with them trading off doing various chores, watching for ships on the horizon, and generally handling all the mundane little things. Just cause their ship was a floating nursery didn’t mean dishes didn’t need to be cleaned, clothes washed, and meals cooked… incidentally they both found cooking was something they both should have studied a bit more before they left but they blamed the poor quality on the toddler plates and forks and dealt with drinking from their bottle to get the taste out of their mouths.
Finally after five days at sea with no pirate ships sighted Jules came to the helm where Petie was with a suggestion for his captain. “You want me to WHAT!?” Petie said raising an eyebrow as he looked to Jules. The puppy just smiled to him “All I said was maybe you should practice your powers a little. That’s what you were doing when were getting ready to sail back home wasn’t it?” Petie just gave Jules an incredulous look “Yeeeeeeah, back where we weren’t god knows how far from people who could help! What if I accidentally managed to SINK the boat with these stupid powers of mine!” he said, gesturing overdramatically.
“… Petie… one thing your power does is makes things child safe, right?”
“… right?”
“So wouldn’t making a boat sink while you’re on it be the OPPOSITE of that?”
“… dammit I hate it when you do that.”
Jules giggled and smiled “Come on, maybe if you learn how to turn things back to normal like you can with people we might be able to call this off and go home!” he suggested hopefully before eagerly pointing at the wheel “Try and turn this back to normal!” Petie just looked at him, not confident about this at all. Jules smiled and hugged him “Just give it a try! … pleeeeease?” he added making puppy dog eyes to Petie. He groaned “Fine, fine already! Just give me some space!” he motioned as Jules stepped away. Taking a deep breath Petie stuck his paws out at the wheel and focused hard grunting and clinching his teeth as he tried to imagine it turning back to normal…. Turning back… to… normal…
POOF
A wave of the white smoke pushed from Petie billowing not only over the ship but also over him and Jules. They both let out a squeak of surprise as the sweet smelling powder washed over them and they fell back on their bottoms disoriented. In a moment it faded into the air and they found themselves looking at pudgy infant versions of themselves. This happened way more often than either of them wanted to admit so it didn’t bother them too much. What did bother them was the changes they could see to the ship.
The first thing they noticed was the wheel. Before it had been made of a soft wood that had been rounded and polished smooth…. now of the other hand it was made of a white rubber like material. The next thing they noticed were the sails, which before had been a light black color, now they looked like the kind of patchwork quilts you’d put in a crib, thick, bright, and colorful. Crawling quickly to the side of the helm they found the guardrails had also become soft rubber and a bit more playpen like. Looking out at all of their ship they could see the two saw thicker padding on the floors, baby gates on the doors, and more soft rubber where anything that might have been hard enough to hurt either of them.
“Wha did yu do!?”
“I dun knu! I told yu dat was a bad idea!”
“Sowwie! Undo it alweady!”
“I’m twying!”
Petie shut his eyes tightly and focused hard as he stuck his little paws out. At this point he didn’t care about turning the ship back into a normal sailing vessel, he just wanted it NOT to be a giant newborns playroom! Finally after grunting and forcing for a moment the white smoke appeared again and washed over them and the ship. Coughing the two waved paws in front of their faces to help it clear, immediately noticing it wasn’t the clumsy awkward movement they associated with their infant bodies. Sure enough they were back to normal and the first thing they did was shove their heads over the side of the rails to take a look.
Black sails, soft wood, no baby gates… judging from just a cursory glance everything seemed back to normal. Petie ran his paws over the familiar wood of the wheel before looking at Jules “What about below deck?” Jules shrugged and they both scurried down the ramp to check. As they opened the door to their bedroom/nursery to take a look they both stopped in their tracks. “… what the…?” Petie said as he looked at it. It was different all right… but it was HOW it was different that was confusing,
Before the nursery had been standard, Petie’s powers had turned the two fancy beds into well stuffed and comfy cribs and the rest of the room had followed suit. Now both of the beds were distinctly different. Petie’s on the left was much fancier and larger with delicately carved wood detailing on the head and foot boards. It was painted the same baby blue all his clothes seemed to turn under his power with a little bit of added gold detailing as if to give it a little regal touch to say he’s the captain. Jules’s bed on the other hand had turned into a large cradle with a plush mattress and low walls so he could climb in but not low enough to fall out. It even had a little canopy over the front of it where his pillow was and a heart delicately carved into the footboard. Both were well padded with soft mattresses, pillows, and plushies.
“How did this…?”
“Neat! But why do I get the cradle?”
“How am I supposed to know!? I don’t even know why these are still different then before!”
“And how come you get the bigger one?”
“… cause I’m the captain of course.”
“What about the rest of the ship?”
“… I’m kinda scared to look.”
“Don’t be a baby! Come on!”
“……….”
“Right, poor choice of words.”
Never the less the two headed below deck to make sure everything else was the same. After checking the whole ship from top to bottom they could only find two things that were significantly different. One was in the kitchen off the dining area. They had several highchairs, but really only used two and sure enough those two had been altered. They both had Petie & Jules’s respective names stenciled on the backboards in alphabet block letters. Petie’s had been made a little fancier and bigger and had the same baby blue and gold color scheme as his crib. Meanwhile Jules’s had turned darker blue as his cradle and had the same hearts carved into the wood work.
The last change didn’t show up till the sun started to go down. As the two sat in their respective beds, still thinking about what had happened, Jules suddenly pointed up at the ceiling “Look!” Petie turned his head up and sure enough there was childish glow in the dark stars painted on the blue ceiling of the nursery with a big crescent moon right in the center. They both looked at it in awe for a moment before Petie spoke up “Okay, I want to know what the HECK is going on here! Why did my powers do THAT?” he pointed up “Or this?” he pointed at their altered beds “Or change the stuff downstairs?”
Jules gently rocked back and forth in his cradle for a moment thinking this over before he suddenly sat up and shouted “I got it!” Petie sat up and looked at him “Got what?” he asked as Jules grinned broadly, kneeling in his cradle as his tail wagged back and forth “I know why your powers changed all that stuff!” Petie raised a skeptical eyebrow but didn’t say anything. Jules just giggled “Well remember how I didn’t like how dark it was in here at night?” he asked as Petie nodded “And remember you said you wanted a better bed and that I’d told you I wanted one that was more comfortable?” Petie nodded again, eyes a little wider “And remember how you’d said you wanted some way to tell the highchairs apart since we had so many?” Jules finished since by now Petie had gotten the point.
“… you’re saying this happened cause I wanted it to?”
“Yeah! I bet you’re powers could tell you wanted that stuff to be different so while it was turning everything back it changed them to be better!”
“…… so my fruit can customize how it changes things?”
“I guess so,,, I bet if you practice more you can control it!”
“Maybe… but that’s for tomorrow… bedtime now.”
“Yeah… nighty night…”
They both yawned as Petie pulled the bars up on his crib and they snuggled into their respective beds. They both dozed off to the gentle sound of the ship and Jules’s cradle rocking to the waves.
****************
“You ready for this?”
“Nope… are you?”
“Uh uh… lets do it!”
“Right! Just glad the grappling hooks still work…”
The boys had been worried they’d go a week without spotting any pirate ships but on their seventh day at sea their luck changed. There on the horizon was a big ship made of some kind of dark wood with crimson sails and a black flag flying from the top mast. If that wasn’t a pirate ship they had no clue what was. They debated using the paddle wheels to get closer but the wind was blowing them at a good clip and the ship seemed to be just sitting in the water as they pulled towards it.
Now that they could get a better look at it they could see it was made of a dark brownish wood with red trimming and a huge painted sea serpent as it’s figurehead. They could make out the flag too. A skull with several snakes coming out of it like the spokes of a wheel. Neither of them could put their fingers on what it was but something seemed… off about the whole ship, either way this was their big chance… and hopefully not their last one as the two twirled their grappling hooks and hurled them up to the ship. With a less then reassuring squeak they caught and held on the first throw.
“… that was dumb luck wasn’t it?”
“Yep. Start climbing.”
Growing up playing in the forest and mountain of their home island meant the climb wasn’t that hard for the two and a few minutes later they were tugging themselves up onto the ship… and promptly found themselves surrounded by bellossom, lopunny, and gardevoir’s as well as a few other random species who were all ladies and all wearing bikini’s and capes… as well as pointing various weapons at them “I don’t know WHO you think you are…” a trash coat wormadam who was wearing the fanciest cape of the group said as she stepped forward “But you HAVE to be pretty stupid to think you can just…” she stopped short as she and the rest of the pirates got a good look at their intruders.
There was a heavy silence for about a minute that just left Petie and Jules fidgeting awkwardly as they waited for what was coming. They didn’t have to wait long as the entire crew on deck doubled over in laughter. They blushed and looked away from them as a few of the pirates were laughing so hard they actually dropped their weapons. Finally the wormadam managed to regain her composure for a moment “W-well… well that… answers my… my questions about your ship…” she said gasping for breath after laughing so hard “Now what are you doing out here?” she asked, her tone a lot softer as she smiled apparently convinced the two were no threat.
“W-were… u-uh… w-we…” Petie squeaked, between embarrassment and fear he’d nearly lost his nerve “We’re h-here f-for your t-treasure!” he finally managed to squeak out, praying his diaper was still dry after all this. There was that uncomfortable silence again followed by more laughter, luckily it didn’t last as long “You’re serious? Really? I mean I can understand two naïve little pants wetters poorly playing pretend pirates but seriously…” the wormadam said as she shook her head sadly “Too much illiteration Ginger, get to the point.” Another voice said as a sand cloak wormadam stepped up next to the first. She was dressed nearly identically except for the color of her outfit and by the looks of things was probably the sister of the first.
“I was GETTING to the Pepper!” the trash cloak one said before clearing her throat “Look around you babies! You see before you the most beautiful, the most powerful, the most FEARED ladies on the sea! That’s right! Let me be the first to welcome you aboard the ship of the infamous KUJA PIRATES!!!” she shouted to the heaves as he crew mates echoed back the shout. Of course Petie and Jules knew who the Kuja pirates were, besides being led by one of the seven warlords of the sea they had many legends told about them and their mysterious “Amazon Lily”. The two had grown up hearing these stories… which is why they suddenly knew what was off about this ship.
“I thought the kuja all had snakes with them?”
“And had a big snake pulling their boat?”
“And only sailed in the grand line?”
“And I KNOW they’re supposed to be led by the queen of pirates…”
“The most beautiful lady of the sea,”
“You’re not the Kuja are you?”
“Yeah! I bet you’re just using their looks to intimidate others into surrendering!”
The women stared blankly at them for a moment, jaws dropped and an expression of utter disbelief on their faces that two kids in diapers had managed to see through and pick out all the flaws in their cover story. “How the fuck…?” Ginger muttered as there was a teasing laugh from behind her as a plant cloak wormadam who looked about the same as the other two stepped into view “I told you about that over acting didn’t I Ginger?” she said teasingly as Ginger went red in the face “SHUT UP SUGER! MY ACTING WAS PERFECT!” she shouted making Sugar roll her eyes “Then tell me why two large toddlers were able to see through it so easily?” she asked as her sibling fumed. Pepper cleared her throat to get their attention “Focus on the matter at hand ladies.” She said motioning to the boys.
“Now then… I should congratulate you two for seeing through our ruse so easily.” Pepper said smiling to the two of them softly “But despite the attitudes of my sisters I am the captain of this ship and I have no need for little boys nor do I want to deal with diaper changes. So run along now and I promise I won’t spank you.” She finished by gently waving her hand for them to leave as a few of the crew protests softly to let them stay for a bit since they though the two of them were cute. Both their faces flushed again Petie nervously cleared his throat “I’m s-sorry b-but as captain of t-the…” his mind went blank as he suddenly realized they’d never named their crew. As he scrambled to come up with on all that came to mind was how the soft cotton of his diaper hugged his butt.
“The Cuddlebutt Pirates.” The words escaped his mouth before he could have any second thoughts and he could feel his face flush with shame as he realized what he just said. Jules groaned softly and put his head in his hands as the women struggled to keep from breaking down in laughter again… though that didn’t keep Ginger and Sugar from snickering their heads off till Pepper gave them a look. Wanting to find a dark hole to die in Petie continued “I will repeat, w-we’re here for y-your treasure. Hand it o-over and t-their won’t be any t-trouble.” He finished as he fidgeted on one foot nervously. The ladies were less than impressed with him.
“Very well I see you’ve chosen to spanking option.” Pepper said motioning to her crew “Since you’re young we’ll let you live though… just don’t try sitting down anytime soon.” The assembled Fake-Kuja took a step forward towards the two as Jules quickly scurried behind Petie. Taking a deep breath the teddiursa focused and as the ladies rushed the he thrust his arms forward as white smoke billowed out from him like a wave swallowing up the charging pirates as only the three sisters and few others were quick enough to keep from getting caught. Again silence hung in the air as the smoke lingered obscuring the pirates from view… until the sound of sniffling was heard breaking into the sound of several bawling infant.
The few that had escaped the attack stared with jaw dropped horror as the smoke cleared to reveal bawling infants all wearing thick diapers and babyish versions of the capes they’d been wearing mere moments before as adults. The weapons they’d been carrying before lay scattered on the decks as baby blocks, dolls, rattles, and other toys. All of the transformed pirates had a look of fear and confusion on their faces which thanks to the altered temperament that came with the transformation was making most of them breaking out crying. Petie felt a little guilty as he looked at the bawling babies, but he just kept reminding himself that they’d been attacking them a few seconds earlier.
“The little brats a fruit user…” Ginger cussed under her breath as Pepper took charge “ALL OF YOU THAT ARE LEFT ATTACK THOSE TWO!! COME FROM ALL SIDES!! AND IF YOU SEE THAT WHITE SMOKE TRICK AGAIN GET OUT OF THE DAMN WAY!!!” she shouted as the sounds of doors being slammed open and more pirates came out of the wood work. Petie and Jules squeaked and scurried into the middle of the minefield of crying babies as Jules pulled his rattle from his back. Call it cowardly but Petie was certain of two things, his powers couldn’t make anyone younger than most of the babies already were and that the remaining pirates would be a lot more cautious and on edge if they have to battle while avoiding stepping on some of their crewmates.
Sure enough the charging pirates had to slow to a near stop to avoid harming their shrunken comrades making them perfect fodder for the next wave of smoke Petie released, after he made sure Jules was behind him to avoid catching him in the attack. The baby powder cloud billowed harmlessly past the already transformed pirates as the rest turned and tried to outrun it with no success as more crying babies joined the bawling cacophony. The few who didn’t get reduced to diapers escaped by climbing up the riggings and getting above the smoke as it went past. Judging by the colorful language coming from Ginger Petie was willing to bet he’d gotten over half of the crew by now.
“You brat!!!”
Petie squeaked in terror as a lopunny girl with an axe suddenly same out of nowhere on his left he moved up his hands to try and shrink her before she cut off his head… and was beat to the chase by Jules jumping up and sending her sprawling back with a strong rattle smack to the nose. Petie blinked as Jules landed and sprang back up way quicker than you’d expect for somebody wearing a diaper that thick as he wacked or jumped off of Fake-Kuja crew members like he use to leap from rock to rock back home, clubbing them with his oversized rattle as he went. Petie watched his best friend work for a moment before spinning his heels and throwing his hands up dramatically causing the smoke to rise upwards from him catching the ladies swinging down on him from rigging ropes by surprise.
There was gentle thuds as the now infant pirates fell to the deck and bounced lightly on their padded bottoms, joining the rest of their companions in bawling. Jules hopped back behind Petie as he unleashed one last smoke cloud to engulf the pirates the riolu had clubbed senseless. The moment they were shrunk down he grinned “I think that’s everybody, let’s go see where they keep their treasure!” he said turning and taking a step forward… as all three of the wormadam sisters jumped at him from where they’d hidden. To his left there was Ginger with a battle axe, to his right there was Sugar with a spear, and coming straight at him was Pepper with a pair of sabers… which unfortunately left the teddiursa with nowhere to go, no time to dodge, and note enough time to get all of them in a smoke wave.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaah!!!”
There was a clash of steel as the four weapons collided in the puff of white smoke where Petie had been. Jules stared with wide eyes as he felt his diaper grow wet with fear “P-petie?” he squeaked as the three sisters pulled back their weapons… only to find them clean and unbloody. The three started to cough and wave their hands in front of their faces as the smoke started to clear. For some reason the baby powder scent was strong enough to almost suffocate them. Even from eight feet away Jules found himself clamping his paws over his nose to try and block it out… till he detected something different from Petie’s normal baby powder smell in the smoke and quickly jumped back further.
As the smoke cleared there was a soft sniffle as a chubby infant version of Petie sat on his padded bottom, his captain’s coat training behind him as it was draped over his shoulders. His puffy bonnet swayed as he rubbed his teary eyes to keep from breaking down crying from fear. Thanks to his reduced stature the weapons had collided with each other before they’d reached him. The three bugs looked at the little teddiursa, barely holding back his tears, with confused and drunken expressions. Jules didn’t know what the extra scent he’d detected in the cloud of powder was but those three had been a ground zero for it. Not prepared to wait to see what’d happed he leveled his rattle and prepared to charge in…
Just as all three of them dropped their weapons, dropped to their knees, and scooped Petie up. Jules stared blankly as the three shoved against each other for possession of Petie, each one trying something different to make him smile and stop crying. Ginger tried tickling him, Sugar tried making funny faces, and Pepper cuddled him to her chest and gently rocked him but none of them got anywhere because the others kept trying to get in the way as Petie bawled loudly. Jules just watched this all happening, he admitted he wasn’t smart enough to be able to figure out what Petie had done to them but judging by their flushed faces and dazed eyes… he’d guess they’d been drugged with something. Maybe… at this point what was just plain confused.
“T-tweasuwe!!” Petie finally lisped through his tears making the three stop what they were doing. “Treasure?” Ginger asked gently bouncing the bawling bear in her arms “Will the wittle teddy cheer up with we give him treasure?” Sugar cooed in a sickeningly sweet way as she gently tickled Petie’s chin. Sniffling and hiccupping Petie nodded weakly. “Well what are you waiting for! Go get the chest where we store the loot!” Pepper ordered, taking Petie from her sisters and cuddling him again gently shushing him “Shhhh, shhhh, auntie Pepper will make it all better, you’ll see.”
Jules watched in disbelief, along with the bulk of the babyfied crew, as the sister brought up a big treasure chest the clanked with money as they carried it. Petie sniffled, tears still in his eyes as he motioned over to the side of the ship they Sea Cradle was docked at. Pepper nodded knowingly as she sat Petie gently down on the top of the treasure chest and her sisters prepared to lower it down to the smaller ship with ropes. Squeaking and realizing his ride was leaving Jules dashed over and after a little trouble thanks to his thick diaper managed to climb over side and plop down on the treasure chest next to Petie as it was steadily lowered down. He couldn’t keep himself from whispering to his infant captain.
“What in Arceus’s name did you DO to them?”
“I dun knu, but start da paddle wheels and get us out of hewe befowe it goes away.”
“Got it.”
The moment the chest sat down on the Sea Cradles deck Jules jumped off and hurried downstairs as Petie looked up to them with a big grin showing the few baby teeth he had at that age as he waved “Tank yuuuu!” he called as the three awwwed and cooed him as he felt the paddle wheels start to turn and the ship pull away “Bye bye!” he called as the three smiled back, still semi drugged looks on their faces as they waved and cooed their good bye to the little bear. The moment they were a good distance away Petie turned back to normal and, ignoring his wet diaper, set the sails to help speed their getaway before waddling up to the helm and steering them into the distance.
When the Fake-Kuja’s ship finally vanished into the distance Petie waddled downstairs to relieve Jules of paddlewheel duty. After that and they both got changed they began sorting through their newly gotten loot. “Petie? What the heck was that?” Jules piped up as they two counted coins. Petie looked up from his stacks and shrugged “I dunno… I just thought “I dun wanna die” and poof I’m a baby and they’re tripping over themselves to make me stop crying… I think it was something in the smoke that did it.” Jules nodded as he pulled some fancy looking jewelry from the box “Yeah… I smelled something weird in that smoke before they went all crazy over you… think it’s another power of your devil fruit?”
“Dunno what else it’d be.”
“Okay then… what are you gonna name it?”
“No clue.”
“How about Babu Babu Waaa Waaa?”
“… no.”
“Come on, it’s perfect for it!”
“… maybe…”
“Anyway think they’ll come after us?”
“Doubt it.”
“Why…?”
“Think about it.”
******************
Feeling like they’d just gotten over a bad hangover the three sisters looked around their now treasureless ship of infants. There was silence for a moment before the three looked each other in the eyes and came to a unanimous agreement.
“This never happened.”
*****************
“Oooooooooh! I get it! Oh and…”
“OW! Why’d you kick me!?”
“Cuddlebutt pirates.”
“Right, sorry. I deserved that.”
*****************
Captain Gold John coughed blood as he struggled to his feet. All around him his crew lay in various stages of bloody, broken, and beaten. Legs feeling like they’d give out any second the weavile couldn’t do anything but watched as their enemy amused herself by casually dangling his crews limp bodies from the ships riggings. “Damn… you…” he cussed as the chuckling pirate turned her eyes to him “Foohohohohohoho! Still with us Johnny? I suppose there’s a little merit to your bounty after all… but you should have known better than to cross me…” John felt his vision blur as the woman walked towards him, holding her arm out as the same substance she’d used to decimate his crew swelled out and around it.
“Damn…. You… fruit users…” he cussed and he started to collapse… only to make a strangling sound as something grasped his neck hard and dragged him to his feet. Looking down he could see the grinning face of his foe as she chuckled “Fruit users you say? As in more than one? Funny thing… I happen to be looking for any fruit users I can find.” John made strangled sound as he felt something wrap around his arm and slowly start to squeeze “So we’re going to play a little game Johnny boy… it’s called “How many limbs do I have to crush before you tell me all you know about this other user”… ready? Game start.”
“GAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!”

Voyage:
Babu Babu Powers and the First Raid “Ugh… Jules?”
“Yeah Petie?”
“Why didn’t anyone tell us about seasickness?”
“Dunno… why is the room still spinning?”
“Dunno…”
The two boys had never actually gone out to sea before which meant they were both woefully unprepared to deal with seasickness. They’d spend the last two days either hanging over the boats side with their padded bottom stuck in the air or too dazed to do more than lay in their beds and groan. Luckily by day three they’d gained enough of their “Sea Legs” that they could move around the ship with something other than a crawl (they were actually thankful for the soft padded floors after that) and they began to adjust to their new home away from home.
Jules had adapted to having nothing for anyone above the age of toddler at his disposal far faster than Petie expected and soon the two had fallen into some kind of routine with them trading off doing various chores, watching for ships on the horizon, and generally handling all the mundane little things. Just cause their ship was a floating nursery didn’t mean dishes didn’t need to be cleaned, clothes washed, and meals cooked… incidentally they both found cooking was something they both should have studied a bit more before they left but they blamed the poor quality on the toddler plates and forks and dealt with drinking from their bottle to get the taste out of their mouths.
Finally after five days at sea with no pirate ships sighted Jules came to the helm where Petie was with a suggestion for his captain. “You want me to WHAT!?” Petie said raising an eyebrow as he looked to Jules. The puppy just smiled to him “All I said was maybe you should practice your powers a little. That’s what you were doing when were getting ready to sail back home wasn’t it?” Petie just gave Jules an incredulous look “Yeeeeeeah, back where we weren’t god knows how far from people who could help! What if I accidentally managed to SINK the boat with these stupid powers of mine!” he said, gesturing overdramatically.
“… Petie… one thing your power does is makes things child safe, right?”
“… right?”
“So wouldn’t making a boat sink while you’re on it be the OPPOSITE of that?”
“… dammit I hate it when you do that.”
Jules giggled and smiled “Come on, maybe if you learn how to turn things back to normal like you can with people we might be able to call this off and go home!” he suggested hopefully before eagerly pointing at the wheel “Try and turn this back to normal!” Petie just looked at him, not confident about this at all. Jules smiled and hugged him “Just give it a try! … pleeeeease?” he added making puppy dog eyes to Petie. He groaned “Fine, fine already! Just give me some space!” he motioned as Jules stepped away. Taking a deep breath Petie stuck his paws out at the wheel and focused hard grunting and clinching his teeth as he tried to imagine it turning back to normal…. Turning back… to… normal…
POOF
A wave of the white smoke pushed from Petie billowing not only over the ship but also over him and Jules. They both let out a squeak of surprise as the sweet smelling powder washed over them and they fell back on their bottoms disoriented. In a moment it faded into the air and they found themselves looking at pudgy infant versions of themselves. This happened way more often than either of them wanted to admit so it didn’t bother them too much. What did bother them was the changes they could see to the ship.

The next thing they noticed were the sails, which before had been a light black color, now they looked like the kind of patchwork quilts you’d put in a crib, thick, bright, and colorful. Crawling quickly to the side of the helm they found the guardrails had also become soft rubber and a bit more playpen like. Looking out at all of their ship they could see the two saw thicker padding on the floors, baby gates on the doors, and more soft rubber where anything that might have been hard enough to hurt either of them.
“Wha did yu do!?”
“I dun knu! I told yu dat was a bad idea!”
“Sowwie! Undo it alweady!”
“I’m twying!”
Petie shut his eyes tightly and focused hard as he stuck his little paws out. At this point he didn’t care about turning the ship back into a normal sailing vessel, he just wanted it NOT to be a giant newborns playroom! Finally after grunting and forcing for a moment the white smoke appeared again and washed over them and the ship. Coughing the two waved paws in front of their faces to help it clear, immediately noticing it wasn’t the clumsy awkward movement they associated with their infant bodies. Sure enough they were back to normal and the first thing they did was shove their heads over the side of the rails to take a look.
Black sails, soft wood, no baby gates… judging from just a cursory glance everything seemed back to normal. Petie ran his paws over the familiar wood of the wheel before looking at Jules “What about below deck?” Jules shrugged and they both scurried down the ramp to check. As they opened the door to their bedroom/nursery to take a look they both stopped in their tracks. “… what the…?” Petie said as he looked at it. It was different all right… but it was HOW it was different that was confusing,
Before the nursery had been standard, Petie’s powers had turned the two fancy beds into well stuffed and comfy cribs and the rest of the room had followed suit. Now both of the beds were distinctly different. Petie’s on the left was much fancier and larger with delicately carved wood detailing on the head and foot boards. It was painted the same baby blue all his clothes seemed to turn under his power with a little bit of added gold detailing as if to give it a little regal touch to say he’s the captain. Jules’s bed on the other hand had turned into a large cradle with a plush mattress and low walls so he could climb in but not low enough to fall out. It even had a little canopy over the front of it where his pillow was and a heart delicately carved into the footboard. Both were well padded with soft mattresses, pillows, and plushies.
“How did this…?”
“Neat! But why do I get the cradle?”
“How am I supposed to know!? I don’t even know why these are still different then before!”
“And how come you get the bigger one?”
“… cause I’m the captain of course.”
“What about the rest of the ship?”
“… I’m kinda scared to look.”
“Don’t be a baby! Come on!”
“……….”
“Right, poor choice of words.”
Never the less the two headed below deck to make sure everything else was the same. After checking the whole ship from top to bottom they could only find two things that were significantly different. One was in the kitchen off the dining area. They had several highchairs, but really only used two and sure enough those two had been altered. They both had Petie & Jules’s respective names stenciled on the backboards in alphabet block letters. Petie’s had been made a little fancier and bigger and had the same baby blue and gold color scheme as his crib. Meanwhile Jules’s had turned darker blue as his cradle and had the same hearts carved into the wood work.
The last change didn’t show up till the sun started to go down. As the two sat in their respective beds, still thinking about what had happened, Jules suddenly pointed up at the ceiling “Look!” Petie turned his head up and sure enough there was childish glow in the dark stars painted on the blue ceiling of the nursery with a big crescent moon right in the center. They both looked at it in awe for a moment before Petie spoke up “Okay, I want to know what the HECK is going on here! Why did my powers do THAT?” he pointed up “Or this?” he pointed at their altered beds “Or change the stuff downstairs?”
Jules gently rocked back and forth in his cradle for a moment thinking this over before he suddenly sat up and shouted “I got it!” Petie sat up and looked at him “Got what?” he asked as Jules grinned broadly, kneeling in his cradle as his tail wagged back and forth “I know why your powers changed all that stuff!” Petie raised a skeptical eyebrow but didn’t say anything. Jules just giggled “Well remember how I didn’t like how dark it was in here at night?” he asked as Petie nodded “And remember you said you wanted a better bed and that I’d told you I wanted one that was more comfortable?” Petie nodded again, eyes a little wider “And remember how you’d said you wanted some way to tell the highchairs apart since we had so many?” Jules finished since by now Petie had gotten the point.
“… you’re saying this happened cause I wanted it to?”
“Yeah! I bet you’re powers could tell you wanted that stuff to be different so while it was turning everything back it changed them to be better!”
“…… so my fruit can customize how it changes things?”
“I guess so,,, I bet if you practice more you can control it!”
“Maybe… but that’s for tomorrow… bedtime now.”
“Yeah… nighty night…”
They both yawned as Petie pulled the bars up on his crib and they snuggled into their respective beds. They both dozed off to the gentle sound of the ship and Jules’s cradle rocking to the waves.
****************
“You ready for this?”
“Nope… are you?”
“Uh uh… lets do it!”
“Right! Just glad the grappling hooks still work…”
The boys had been worried they’d go a week without spotting any pirate ships but on their seventh day at sea their luck changed. There on the horizon was a big ship made of some kind of dark wood with crimson sails and a black flag flying from the top mast. If that wasn’t a pirate ship they had no clue what was. They debated using the paddle wheels to get closer but the wind was blowing them at a good clip and the ship seemed to be just sitting in the water as they pulled towards it.
Now that they could get a better look at it they could see it was made of a dark brownish wood with red trimming and a huge painted sea serpent as it’s figurehead. They could make out the flag too. A skull with several snakes coming out of it like the spokes of a wheel. Neither of them could put their fingers on what it was but something seemed… off about the whole ship, either way this was their big chance… and hopefully not their last one as the two twirled their grappling hooks and hurled them up to the ship. With a less then reassuring squeak they caught and held on the first throw.
“… that was dumb luck wasn’t it?”
“Yep. Start climbing.”
Growing up playing in the forest and mountain of their home island meant the climb wasn’t that hard for the two and a few minutes later they were tugging themselves up onto the ship… and promptly found themselves surrounded by bellossom, lopunny, and gardevoir’s as well as a few other random species who were all ladies and all wearing bikini’s and capes… as well as pointing various weapons at them “I don’t know WHO you think you are…” a trash coat wormadam who was wearing the fanciest cape of the group said as she stepped forward “But you HAVE to be pretty stupid to think you can just…” she stopped short as she and the rest of the pirates got a good look at their intruders.
There was a heavy silence for about a minute that just left Petie and Jules fidgeting awkwardly as they waited for what was coming. They didn’t have to wait long as the entire crew on deck doubled over in laughter. They blushed and looked away from them as a few of the pirates were laughing so hard they actually dropped their weapons. Finally the wormadam managed to regain her composure for a moment “W-well… well that… answers my… my questions about your ship…” she said gasping for breath after laughing so hard “Now what are you doing out here?” she asked, her tone a lot softer as she smiled apparently convinced the two were no threat.
“W-were… u-uh… w-we…” Petie squeaked, between embarrassment and fear he’d nearly lost his nerve “We’re h-here f-for your t-treasure!” he finally managed to squeak out, praying his diaper was still dry after all this. There was that uncomfortable silence again followed by more laughter, luckily it didn’t last as long “You’re serious? Really? I mean I can understand two naïve little pants wetters poorly playing pretend pirates but seriously…” the wormadam said as she shook her head sadly “Too much illiteration Ginger, get to the point.” Another voice said as a sand cloak wormadam stepped up next to the first. She was dressed nearly identically except for the color of her outfit and by the looks of things was probably the sister of the first.
“I was GETTING to the Pepper!” the trash cloak one said before clearing her throat “Look around you babies! You see before you the most beautiful, the most powerful, the most FEARED ladies on the sea! That’s right! Let me be the first to welcome you aboard the ship of the infamous KUJA PIRATES!!!” she shouted to the heaves as he crew mates echoed back the shout. Of course Petie and Jules knew who the Kuja pirates were, besides being led by one of the seven warlords of the sea they had many legends told about them and their mysterious “Amazon Lily”. The two had grown up hearing these stories… which is why they suddenly knew what was off about this ship.
“I thought the kuja all had snakes with them?”
“And had a big snake pulling their boat?”
“And only sailed in the grand line?”
“And I KNOW they’re supposed to be led by the queen of pirates…”
“The most beautiful lady of the sea,”
“You’re not the Kuja are you?”
“Yeah! I bet you’re just using their looks to intimidate others into surrendering!”
The women stared blankly at them for a moment, jaws dropped and an expression of utter disbelief on their faces that two kids in diapers had managed to see through and pick out all the flaws in their cover story. “How the fuck…?” Ginger muttered as there was a teasing laugh from behind her as a plant cloak wormadam who looked about the same as the other two stepped into view “I told you about that over acting didn’t I Ginger?” she said teasingly as Ginger went red in the face “SHUT UP SUGER! MY ACTING WAS PERFECT!” she shouted making Sugar roll her eyes “Then tell me why two large toddlers were able to see through it so easily?” she asked as her sibling fumed. Pepper cleared her throat to get their attention “Focus on the matter at hand ladies.” She said motioning to the boys.
“Now then… I should congratulate you two for seeing through our ruse so easily.” Pepper said smiling to the two of them softly “But despite the attitudes of my sisters I am the captain of this ship and I have no need for little boys nor do I want to deal with diaper changes. So run along now and I promise I won’t spank you.” She finished by gently waving her hand for them to leave as a few of the crew protests softly to let them stay for a bit since they though the two of them were cute. Both their faces flushed again Petie nervously cleared his throat “I’m s-sorry b-but as captain of t-the…” his mind went blank as he suddenly realized they’d never named their crew. As he scrambled to come up with on all that came to mind was how the soft cotton of his diaper hugged his butt.
“The Cuddlebutt Pirates.” The words escaped his mouth before he could have any second thoughts and he could feel his face flush with shame as he realized what he just said. Jules groaned softly and put his head in his hands as the women struggled to keep from breaking down in laughter again… though that didn’t keep Ginger and Sugar from snickering their heads off till Pepper gave them a look. Wanting to find a dark hole to die in Petie continued “I will repeat, w-we’re here for y-your treasure. Hand it o-over and t-their won’t be any t-trouble.” He finished as he fidgeted on one foot nervously. The ladies were less than impressed with him.
“Very well I see you’ve chosen to spanking option.” Pepper said motioning to her crew “Since you’re young we’ll let you live though… just don’t try sitting down anytime soon.” The assembled Fake-Kuja took a step forward towards the two as Jules quickly scurried behind Petie. Taking a deep breath the teddiursa focused and as the ladies rushed the he thrust his arms forward as white smoke billowed out from him like a wave swallowing up the charging pirates as only the three sisters and few others were quick enough to keep from getting caught. Again silence hung in the air as the smoke lingered obscuring the pirates from view… until the sound of sniffling was heard breaking into the sound of several bawling infant.
The few that had escaped the attack stared with jaw dropped horror as the smoke cleared to reveal bawling infants all wearing thick diapers and babyish versions of the capes they’d been wearing mere moments before as adults. The weapons they’d been carrying before lay scattered on the decks as baby blocks, dolls, rattles, and other toys. All of the transformed pirates had a look of fear and confusion on their faces which thanks to the altered temperament that came with the transformation was making most of them breaking out crying. Petie felt a little guilty as he looked at the bawling babies, but he just kept reminding himself that they’d been attacking them a few seconds earlier.
“The little brats a fruit user…” Ginger cussed under her breath as Pepper took charge “ALL OF YOU THAT ARE LEFT ATTACK THOSE TWO!! COME FROM ALL SIDES!! AND IF YOU SEE THAT WHITE SMOKE TRICK AGAIN GET OUT OF THE DAMN WAY!!!” she shouted as the sounds of doors being slammed open and more pirates came out of the wood work. Petie and Jules squeaked and scurried into the middle of the minefield of crying babies as Jules pulled his rattle from his back. Call it cowardly but Petie was certain of two things, his powers couldn’t make anyone younger than most of the babies already were and that the remaining pirates would be a lot more cautious and on edge if they have to battle while avoiding stepping on some of their crewmates.
Sure enough the charging pirates had to slow to a near stop to avoid harming their shrunken comrades making them perfect fodder for the next wave of smoke Petie released, after he made sure Jules was behind him to avoid catching him in the attack. The baby powder cloud billowed harmlessly past the already transformed pirates as the rest turned and tried to outrun it with no success as more crying babies joined the bawling cacophony. The few who didn’t get reduced to diapers escaped by climbing up the riggings and getting above the smoke as it went past. Judging by the colorful language coming from Ginger Petie was willing to bet he’d gotten over half of the crew by now.
“You brat!!!”
Petie squeaked in terror as a lopunny girl with an axe suddenly same out of nowhere on his left he moved up his hands to try and shrink her before she cut off his head… and was beat to the chase by Jules jumping up and sending her sprawling back with a strong rattle smack to the nose. Petie blinked as Jules landed and sprang back up way quicker than you’d expect for somebody wearing a diaper that thick as he wacked or jumped off of Fake-Kuja crew members like he use to leap from rock to rock back home, clubbing them with his oversized rattle as he went. Petie watched his best friend work for a moment before spinning his heels and throwing his hands up dramatically causing the smoke to rise upwards from him catching the ladies swinging down on him from rigging ropes by surprise.
There was gentle thuds as the now infant pirates fell to the deck and bounced lightly on their padded bottoms, joining the rest of their companions in bawling. Jules hopped back behind Petie as he unleashed one last smoke cloud to engulf the pirates the riolu had clubbed senseless. The moment they were shrunk down he grinned “I think that’s everybody, let’s go see where they keep their treasure!” he said turning and taking a step forward… as all three of the wormadam sisters jumped at him from where they’d hidden. To his left there was Ginger with a battle axe, to his right there was Sugar with a spear, and coming straight at him was Pepper with a pair of sabers… which unfortunately left the teddiursa with nowhere to go, no time to dodge, and note enough time to get all of them in a smoke wave.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaah!!!”
There was a clash of steel as the four weapons collided in the puff of white smoke where Petie had been. Jules stared with wide eyes as he felt his diaper grow wet with fear “P-petie?” he squeaked as the three sisters pulled back their weapons… only to find them clean and unbloody. The three started to cough and wave their hands in front of their faces as the smoke started to clear. For some reason the baby powder scent was strong enough to almost suffocate them. Even from eight feet away Jules found himself clamping his paws over his nose to try and block it out… till he detected something different from Petie’s normal baby powder smell in the smoke and quickly jumped back further.
As the smoke cleared there was a soft sniffle as a chubby infant version of Petie sat on his padded bottom, his captain’s coat training behind him as it was draped over his shoulders. His puffy bonnet swayed as he rubbed his teary eyes to keep from breaking down crying from fear. Thanks to his reduced stature the weapons had collided with each other before they’d reached him. The three bugs looked at the little teddiursa, barely holding back his tears, with confused and drunken expressions. Jules didn’t know what the extra scent he’d detected in the cloud of powder was but those three had been a ground zero for it. Not prepared to wait to see what’d happed he leveled his rattle and prepared to charge in…
Just as all three of them dropped their weapons, dropped to their knees, and scooped Petie up. Jules stared blankly as the three shoved against each other for possession of Petie, each one trying something different to make him smile and stop crying. Ginger tried tickling him, Sugar tried making funny faces, and Pepper cuddled him to her chest and gently rocked him but none of them got anywhere because the others kept trying to get in the way as Petie bawled loudly. Jules just watched this all happening, he admitted he wasn’t smart enough to be able to figure out what Petie had done to them but judging by their flushed faces and dazed eyes… he’d guess they’d been drugged with something. Maybe… at this point what was just plain confused.
“T-tweasuwe!!” Petie finally lisped through his tears making the three stop what they were doing. “Treasure?” Ginger asked gently bouncing the bawling bear in her arms “Will the wittle teddy cheer up with we give him treasure?” Sugar cooed in a sickeningly sweet way as she gently tickled Petie’s chin. Sniffling and hiccupping Petie nodded weakly. “Well what are you waiting for! Go get the chest where we store the loot!” Pepper ordered, taking Petie from her sisters and cuddling him again gently shushing him “Shhhh, shhhh, auntie Pepper will make it all better, you’ll see.”
Jules watched in disbelief, along with the bulk of the babyfied crew, as the sister brought up a big treasure chest the clanked with money as they carried it. Petie sniffled, tears still in his eyes as he motioned over to the side of the ship they Sea Cradle was docked at. Pepper nodded knowingly as she sat Petie gently down on the top of the treasure chest and her sisters prepared to lower it down to the smaller ship with ropes. Squeaking and realizing his ride was leaving Jules dashed over and after a little trouble thanks to his thick diaper managed to climb over side and plop down on the treasure chest next to Petie as it was steadily lowered down. He couldn’t keep himself from whispering to his infant captain.
“What in Arceus’s name did you DO to them?”
“I dun knu, but start da paddle wheels and get us out of hewe befowe it goes away.”
“Got it.”
The moment the chest sat down on the Sea Cradles deck Jules jumped off and hurried downstairs as Petie looked up to them with a big grin showing the few baby teeth he had at that age as he waved “Tank yuuuu!” he called as the three awwwed and cooed him as he felt the paddle wheels start to turn and the ship pull away “Bye bye!” he called as the three smiled back, still semi drugged looks on their faces as they waved and cooed their good bye to the little bear. The moment they were a good distance away Petie turned back to normal and, ignoring his wet diaper, set the sails to help speed their getaway before waddling up to the helm and steering them into the distance.
When the Fake-Kuja’s ship finally vanished into the distance Petie waddled downstairs to relieve Jules of paddlewheel duty. After that and they both got changed they began sorting through their newly gotten loot. “Petie? What the heck was that?” Jules piped up as they two counted coins. Petie looked up from his stacks and shrugged “I dunno… I just thought “I dun wanna die” and poof I’m a baby and they’re tripping over themselves to make me stop crying… I think it was something in the smoke that did it.” Jules nodded as he pulled some fancy looking jewelry from the box “Yeah… I smelled something weird in that smoke before they went all crazy over you… think it’s another power of your devil fruit?”
“Dunno what else it’d be.”
“Okay then… what are you gonna name it?”
“No clue.”
“How about Babu Babu Waaa Waaa?”
“… no.”
“Come on, it’s perfect for it!”
“… maybe…”
“Anyway think they’ll come after us?”
“Doubt it.”
“Why…?”
“Think about it.”
******************
Feeling like they’d just gotten over a bad hangover the three sisters looked around their now treasureless ship of infants. There was silence for a moment before the three looked each other in the eyes and came to a unanimous agreement.
“This never happened.”
*****************
“Oooooooooh! I get it! Oh and…”
“OW! Why’d you kick me!?”
“Cuddlebutt pirates.”
“Right, sorry. I deserved that.”
*****************
Captain Gold John coughed blood as he struggled to his feet. All around him his crew lay in various stages of bloody, broken, and beaten. Legs feeling like they’d give out any second the weavile couldn’t do anything but watched as their enemy amused herself by casually dangling his crews limp bodies from the ships riggings. “Damn… you…” he cussed as the chuckling pirate turned her eyes to him “Foohohohohohoho! Still with us Johnny? I suppose there’s a little merit to your bounty after all… but you should have known better than to cross me…” John felt his vision blur as the woman walked towards him, holding her arm out as the same substance she’d used to decimate his crew swelled out and around it.
“Damn…. You… fruit users…” he cussed and he started to collapse… only to make a strangling sound as something grasped his neck hard and dragged him to his feet. Looking down he could see the grinning face of his foe as she chuckled “Fruit users you say? As in more than one? Funny thing… I happen to be looking for any fruit users I can find.” John made strangled sound as he felt something wrap around his arm and slowly start to squeeze “So we’re going to play a little game Johnny boy… it’s called “How many limbs do I have to crush before you tell me all you know about this other user”… ready? Game start.”
“GAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!”
