chopper joins the cleaners as a new medic?

(op x gachiakuta au)!! more notes on him under the cut!

the city side of the sphere in this au is the equivalent of mariejois and then as per canon the donquixotes move to the slums to experience the life there and obviously things Do Not Go Well. the version of the burning scene after everything else proceeds as normal is the residents just straight up tying the brothers up without the apostles' permission to be dropped into the pit after they're duly punished (although even if they knew they wouldn't intervene) (alternative option is the donquixotes attempting to force cross the division between the city and slums and getting his entire family caught but hm)

doffy somehow manages to break out of bindings (inate giver but unawakened, maybe) (devil fruit=giver potential basically) but not before cora and homing have already either been dropped or accidentally fell in the pit. in the split second of just so happening to look their way doffy also gets thrown down. we pretend canon doesn't exist for the single plot point of doffy and cora both survive the border somehow (homing is killed either before or after the drop) and arrive at the grounds.

zero idea as well if they were dropped in a no man's land but cora and doffy easily get separated into their branching plotlines with how messy it gets in the grounds so neither of them actually know if the other survived until they reunite. doffy joins the raiders with trebol while cora joins some other faction equivalent to the marines or something (baaahhh figuring it out) et cetera time skip cora joins as the equivalent of a supporter for the raiders (the raiders are always givers but doffy's branch does not care whatsoever because hey man we family) and starts throwing children out by putting them in drastic situations typical one piece style. you faker!!!! you're not a supporter!!!!! also his vital instrument is a makeup kit because echo said so and i agree

my draft take on flevance in this au is that it's basically a city built upon/made of glorified trash, maybe glorified by a giver or something? no idea. after the giver had a malfunction of some sort/whatever happens happens flevance is flooded by trash beasts and designated as another no man's land, practically self-made from the fires that just caused the repurposed trash to turn into nothing more than trash. you know what happens to the people in no man's lands without masks that the higher-ups most definitely did not provide. rumors spread that any remnants of the people there inherently breathe out polluted air as a result of their tarnished lungs and dirty the environment or something.

law probably felt more compelled to join doffy because i mean his headquarters is literally on a pile of trash in canon as well but point is. he proceeds to join the doffy's branch of the raiders (hence why his design still has the stitch-like motifs even after escaping. heh) and timeskip 2 years again! white lead disease in this case affects the lungs more than anything and wow are those failing for law so you know the drill. once again zero idea how to make the d name plotline gachiakuta-canon but we ball (it's not the watchman series those are...wearable poneglyphs lmao). as per above the ope-ope fruit is a vital instrument (though i'm still deciding if law's actual vital instrument is his hat/kikoku/something else). insert confrontation
