Chapter 1: Devil Fruit.
Note: alright my doods! Here is another story for y'all and I'm gonna tell it straight, this story is NOT going to follow the beacon plot.
You know, the idea of the Jaune arc in any prior situation goes towards beacon to be a huntsman and yada yada, sure yes. That would be the base foundation however there's too many of that premise so I decided to go against the grain and do something unique.
And while you guys may be on edge as anyone who watched One Piece or even know of the Devil Fruits, they know just how fuckin dangerous that piece of fruit can be but I have lore that I will add upon their existence.
Jaune Arc and a whole bunch of people are gonna get some world breaking abilities so enjoy seeing that boat get rocked.
This story is made between me and my co author unlimitedblades and is beta read by my boy ZergPsycho

"You're telling us this now!?" A booming voice sounded off inside a unique looking office, the numerous clock gears turned inside the office with the occasional ticking, however the office was filled to five people.
The first who yelled was a neatly dressed man in white militant uniform though his face was contorted with a mixture of rage and annoyance "Ozpin! This is by far the most reckless thing you have done so far! This is the most important piece of information that should've been told to us far earlier!"
This man was James Ironwood, General of the Atlas Military from the Kingdom of Atlas as well as headmaster to the Atlas Huntsman Academy.
The second figure was a green suited man with a cane hooked to his hip, the man named Ozpin, current headmaster of the Beacon Huntsman Academy that was located in Vale, was holding a mug that had the emblem of the kingdom of vale which he moved upward to take a sip from it to allow the delicious taste of coffee into his system.
Ozpin sighs again as he lays the cup onto the glass desk "Yes, I do agree that it was a reckless thing to do since I've known of the Devil Fruits existence since their creation but in my defense, I was unsure if the present time would even try to eat them" The current headmaster of beacon would explain his position for not explaining the existence of the devil fruits.
The Devil Fruits were fruits created through magic through an immortal woman named Salem, the power that the devil fruits far exceeded the power of anything the modern age could even remotely cook up since devil fruit powers were derived from pure magic.
"As much as I would like to disagree with James, he's right. The existence of Devil Fruits should've been brought to us. In Fact. Why didn't we expend any effort in locating these fruits and hoarding them for ourselves? They could be used against Salem or even just prevent them from going into the hands of the white fang." A woman gave off her thoughts.
She was Glynda Goodwitch, she was wearing her usual outfit that was a white blouse, black pencil skirt matched to her black high heels and a tattered black exterior and purple interior cape.
Glynda was the Deputy Headmistress to the same academy as Ozpin and currently in said man's employ though while she does take charge of almost every responsibility of the school, she is also one to question Ozpin on decisions that goes beyond the walls of the school.
Like now.
Ozpin seemed to groan as he rubbed his left temple as he somehow knew that he was going to be told off about this "Fine! I forgot about it! You'd be the same if you spent over a thousand in this world!" Ozpin exclaimed the true reason for not informing his inner circle of their existence.
James seemed to be annoyed by that fact especially groaning slightly but spoke up "Let get to the point Ozpin, tell us what these Devil Fruits can do. If I get enough information I can get to start developing a countermeasure"
"Impossible." Ozpin said, quickly catching the whole room off guard.
James narrowed his eyes at the coffee lover who took another sip of the coffee then explained "James, Glynda, Qrow... ? Uh, Excuse me but why are you here?" Ozpin asked as he finally took in the presence of the fifth member of the office.
Winter Schnee was a military woman who disregarded her family status as a Schnee and joined the Atlasian Military.
Her outfit consisted of white pants with her belt containing her specialty crafted rapier, her shoes were military custom iron toed heel boots, Winter has a grayish blue corset under her white overcoat.
Her hair was tied up into a bun while her bangs kept free to both sides of her face, she however had a neutral look at the time though she felt out of place among the huntsman.
"General Ironwood believed it was appropriate for me to attend Headmaster" she said with a neutral tone as she would when speaking to a superior.
Ozpin didn't respond to her as his eyes shifted over to Ironwoods yet the man didn't back down nor shy away from the ancient wizard, The Headmaster of Beacon only sighed and continued "The reason why I said that is because Sa-" Ozpin stopped momentarily as he glanced at Winter then at Ironwood who nodded to say that the extra addition was trustworthy of such information.
"Salem is the one that created the Devil Fruits, so obviously we cannot utilize them against her, 1: she knows the fruit's abilities and their weaknesses as well and 2: unlike the maidens that I create due to their certain restrictions, Salem didn't think to place restrictions on gaining their power as such anyone can eat the fruit and gain its magical properties" Ozpin gave his information that he knew so far.
"While the intake of gaining the devil fruit powers is easy, to acquire them again is going to be vastly difficult because unlike maiden powers which the theory of transferring them based on gender and age is taken into account, the devil fruit powers upon death is not transferred between person to person but the powers inhabits a random fruit in the world, what fruit is unknown. Maybe any fruit or maybe a fruit of the same family that the original devil fruit inhabited. Salem is the one who truly knows these fruits" The old Wizard finished his explanation of the devil fruit as much as he knew because he himself had limited knowledge on them as opposed to Salem, the Devil Fruit creator, who knew the fruits inside and out.
Glynda seemed unnaturally calm about the whole situation like she was forcing herself to remain calm for whatever reason, Ozpin believed that she has something to hide regarding the Devil Fruits but the old headmaster chose not to pursue as he didn't want to be flung out the window by an irritated deputy headmistress.
James Ironwood seemed to narrow his eyes at the old wizard unsure of what Ozpin was thinking about, Power can be consolidated but if Ozpin was right about Salem knowing about their abilities and weaknesses then it may be a fruitless endeavor to try to find these magical property fruits.
They can still be gathered but if it's eaten then it's too much of a hassle to try and find them again if the current holder died, James and Winter start to see just how much of an impossible task it really is to gather all of the devil fruits together into one spot.
Ozpin took a deep sip of his coffee before setting it down and producing a fruit from his jacket, the fruit was a golden yellow orange with a bright green leaf "This is the 'Yoake Yoake no Mi' or in Ancient Mistralian, it's called the Dawn Dawn Fruit or simply the Dawn Fruit if you don't wish to be that extra.
"This fruit is one I've had experience with in the past, so this allows the one who eats this to control the planetary core particles, the energy found in a planet's molten core and the one who utilized it could be a highly effective warrior. Riser Cannoli used this to become a highly effective warlord back then so I grant this fruit to you , consider it a gift from me to atlas" Ozpin spoke then he extended the golden orange to the white haired woman who gulped with her eyes flickered towards Ironwood who merely nodded at her.
Winter returned her gaze back to the silver haired fox then she grabbed the orange to inspect it carefully since no orange in existence had a pure golden color, she sniffed it slightly which smelled like an orange should.
The atlas specialist started to peel the fruit, or at least tried too only to glare at Ozpin who was chuckling slightly at her "The fruit isn't your ordinary orange, so it doesn't have an outer layer like most oranges so take a bite of it. I can assure you despite the Dawn Fruit's appearance, it is safe to eat."
Winter took Ozpin's words into consideration especially with the fact that he was around for thousands of years, the Schnee specialist was still trying to wrap her head about that, so he knew best in topics concerning this so Winter slowly brought the fruit closer and took a bite out of it.
Like the old wizard said, it had no outer layer so the fruit was easily bit into.
Winter Schnee had blushed immensely with red nearly consuming her natural pale features while her jaw kept moving and tensing, the soldier looked down not wanting to look into the eyes of the other four people in the room or to say that the fruit was by far the most delicious thing she had.
That was proven as she quickly consumed the fruit with ease including the leaf, Winter coughed slightly after wiping her mouth with her gloved hand then stood at attention like the woman did prior.
*Tick*
*Tock*
*Tick*
*Tock*
The numerous clock gears went inside the headmasters office which sounded deafening to everyone as if they waited for something to happen to the young soldier, explode even.
James Ironwood sighed as he ran his hand over his face as he didn't know what to expect to happen "Specialist, do you feel any different? Anything changed?" He asked in a mix of scientific curiosity and healthy concern for his subordinates.
Winter was about to respond until three sets of twitched eyes happened when the fifth and final voice spoke up from the corner of the room, just behind the headmaster's desk "Yeah Schnee, IS something different? It's almost like you got changed magically and have been granted a boon, not like it won't blow up in Ozzy's face in the end"
The man was a great shirted huntsman with a compacted great sword on his back belt, black pants and a tattered red cape.
The man took a sip out of a stainless steel drink flask that was filled with mistralian whiskey before choking on a bit of the burning liquid when Ozpin spoke suddenly "Qrow...Shut up, the maidens were a mistake yes and one that costed me a lot of my power but do not mock the power of the devil fruits, while Salem wasn't a warrior much like myself back then, she was far more insightful when granting devil fruits their power and unlike me, she didn't lose an ounce of power when the deed was done" Ozpin said almost nostalgically.
"Yeah yeah, I got it. The fruits are powerful and dangerous and much like maidens, we won't know who would gain their power" The man named Qrow Branwen responded as he took another swig of his drink.
Qrow was indeed correct as the parallels with the magic possessed by the seasonal maidens and the magic granted by the devil fruits were indeed shockingly similar yet the fruits are only capable of possessing fruits and can be eaten by anyone while seasonal magic needs females of a certain age.
"Well anyway, Ozpin, if you find any more devil fruits then send them to me so we can catalog and study them so we can better prepare to fight against Salem. I'll also have Winter start training with her new power." James said as he turned to walk towards the elevator with Winter following close behind only to stop when Ozpin called out.
"Be careful old friend, I heard from a little birdie-" Ozpin started to say with Qrow snorting at the birdie line "-that your predecessor is still among the living" That got the white suited General to stop in place, Glynda who remained silent for the time raised an eyebrow as she was aware that James Ironwood wasn't the first Atlasian General to command their kingdoms army, there was another that had been commanding them since the end of the time of the Great War, only for James to replace her 20 years prior via stepping down.
James turned around in a mix of shock and surprise "That can't be possible, she was 90 when she stepped down from her position so she would've been over 100 if what you say is true. That's just not possible! Medical science may have expanded vastly in the past century but even now there's no medicine that can expand a human's lifespan beyond the average." James said as the woman he served under her when he first joined the military after becoming a huntsman, she was old and rickety like a finely furnished leather chair.
He just couldn't accept that the strongest huntress in Atlas history could still be alive that wasn't tied to a bed, Ozpin too had his thoughts about the woman especially her appearance yet it would come to a surprise to all of them "Believe the truth James, even if the truth is bitter to swallow." Indeed that it was a bitter pill especially since General Gamma, to Ozpin's knowledge at least, had allegedly consumed a fruit that managed to bring her back to the time of her youthful prime.
-Location: Ansel, Woodland Forest-
In an animalistic cry of death, a wild boar fell as a woman who's hand was coated in a reddish energy morphed back into a human hand.
The woman was wearing a traditional maids uniform, at least in looks, but it was customized to be capable of fighting in with carbon fiber weave which is said to be far far tougher to cut through then steel.
She had darkish black hair tied into a ponytail so as to not get in the way of her face, her face itself was very youthful, her eyes were a beautiful pitch black yet incredibly sharp on her.
The woman sighed as he grabbed the boar to sling it over her right shoulder as she began to walk away thinking about something until ringing from her left ear piece came so she answered "Yes? This is Narberal Gamma speaking..."
A cheery voice responded through her comms "Nabe dear! Did you get the boar? I want to make sure this dinner is perfect enough to send Jaune away" the voice belonged to Juniper Aurora Arc, wife of huntsman and currently founder and CEO of Arc Dust Company.
The Arc Dust Company was considered a big company almost rivaling the SDC in terms of dust margins however the only reason people would know of the ADC was the fact that the ADC doesn't sell the dust the mine from their few but incredibly large source of dust deposits was because Johnathan Arc sells the dust to frontier towns as a way to help bolster villages in their defenses and try to get them to strengthen enough to be considered independent villages.
Nabe's smile seems to quirk upwards in amusement especially having been a maid for the past twenty years, one can't get this sort of amusement being stuck in an office "Yes ma'am, the boar has been slain and captured. I shall gut it and debone it once I returned" The huntress operated woman said as she began her trek back to the town of Ansel
"Thanks hun, I want this to be special. Jaune is going to be following in his dad's footsteps" The arc mother said with some sniffling as one would expect once the baby bird has begun preparations to leave the nest.
"You needn't worry ma'am, The young master may be leaving the village but I will be beside him every step of his journey should he require anything of me"
"And I thank you dear, now double time it missy! I'll get the grill ready when you return" and the call ends.
Nabe seemed to smile a bit more, back then all that Nabe had to worry in her previous job was defending her home, supply routes and try to get comfy with the 'Big Corporations' but now all she had to do was worry everything about her 'Young Master'
It was certainly the punchline of a crappy joke.
Narberal Gamma, gained the moniker as the vicious huntress for her brutal efficiency in combat.
And as the former General of the Atlas Military.
The former soldier turned maid seemed to smirk as she preferred something that allowed her to operate with her own two hands, and the power she gained from an odd looking fruit.

Alright my doods! Here is the first chapter for y'all and you probably notice the distinct lack of Jaune in this chapter but I have a reason.
Currently me and my co author unlimitedblades are still in the middle of sifting through numerous devil fruits that I found online...
I may have gone overboard when finding these fruits so the next episode is one I can guarantee that Jaune arc's Devil fruits will be discovered and used.
Hope you enjoyed the story my doods!
