Black Island: Sequel to Love Poneglyph
Nami woke up from a short and uncomfortable sleep. She stood and saw the bloody-red book lying at the floor. She picked it up and thanked it silently. That book helped her in comforting herself… a little.
She sighed and went to the bathroom. Nami took pity to herself after seeing her swollen eyes. She definitely decided to wear sunglasses to cover not only her eyes but also the main reason why she got those.
After fixing her looks, she went back to her room and just realized that Robin was not there. Nami assumed Robin got up first and went ahead outside.
"Nami, you are so good at this," she muttered to herself, "Just pretend, pretend, pretend."
She opened the door and her mode of pretending turned on automatically. She walked radiating a fake bright and happy Nami.
"Hi Usopp!" Nami greeted, "A good morning isn't it?!"
"W-What?" Usopp asked awkwardly, "I-I mean, yeah!"
What's wrong with Nami? Usopp thought.
"Oh! By the way!" Nami exclaimed and turned back to Usopp.
"Hiyy!" Usopp shrieked, "W-What is it Nami?"
"Have you seen Robin?"
"We thought she was still with you in your room?" Usopp replied.
"But she was not," Nami said and raised her left eyebrow.
"O-kay?" Usopp wondered.
"Attention everyone! Zoro-san is not here at the Crow's Nest!" Brook exclaimed at the ship's megaphone.
Usopp and Nami rushed outside and saw the serious faces of the others.
In the midst of her anxiety, Nami still felt her heart skipped a beat after seeing Luffy.
Damn this heart! Nami roared in her thoughts.
"ROBIN-CHWAAAANNN! Where are you?!" Sanji moaned.
"Oi, Zoro is missing too," Franky added.
"Gyaaaa! Don't tell me?!" Sanji roared and whispered, "They eloped?"
Nami gasped while Sanji started crying and rolling over the floor.
"But we better find them now," Chopper said with teary eyes, "Robin… Zoro…"
Usopp sighed when he noticed their captain, "Oi! Luffy! You're still spacing out!"
Nami was glad to have her sunglasses on. She could still look at Luffy without getting noticed.
Luffy did space out… Nami thought and a weird tiny happiness tingled in her.
"I'm hungry," Luffy said calmly and stood, "Sanji, breakfast."
"Okay, let's have our breakfast first," Sanji said sadly and went to the kitchen.
"Luffy?! Can't you understand the situation?!" Usopp yelled, "Both Zoro and Robin are missing! How can you just space out and eat without bothering yourself for them?!"
"Zoro's with Robin," Luffy said flatly.
"HOW SURE ARE YOU?!" Usopp asked.
"I just…" Luffy paused and continued seriously, "Felt it."
Usopp sighed, "I just noticed this morning. Luffy got serious suddenly while Nami turned a little bit goofy?"
All the other strawhats except Sanji who was at the kitchen, locked their attention to the two.
"What's wrong with the world today?" Usopp asked and sighed again.
Nami was about to defend her side when she observed the sudden formation of fog in the surroundings. Luffy went blankly at the kitchen to eat.
"Fog," she muttered and gasped after remembering something.
"Yohohoho! And it's getting dark in this very early morning!" Brook remarked.
"So what are we going to do Nami?" Franky asked.
"This is bad," she muttered as the light wind moved the ship little by little.
"Oi! What's going on, Nami?!" Usopp asked very frightened, "It's like we're going to face Thriller Bark again, huh?"
Nami's eyes widened and she ran suddenly to her room.
"Nami, where are you going?!" Usopp asked and panicked, "And where's Luffy?!"
"He was there at the kitchen," Franky and Chopper said flatly.
Usopp palmed his face when Nami came back holding a bloody-red book.
"I can't believe this," Nami muttered, "We are currently experiencing what is written in this book."
"WHA-WHAT?!" Usopp yelled, "JUST WHERE THE HELL DID YOU GET THE BOOK?!"
"From the treasures we've won from the Love Poneglyph Game," Nami answered.
"Again?" Usopp asked and fell to his knees.
Chopper's eyes got teary when Sanji bought several foods for them.
"Eh? Cheer up, everyone. I'm going to search for Robin-chan until the ends of the earth," Sanji said and handed the plated food first to Nami.
"S-Sanji-kun?" Nami asked.
"Yes Nami-swan?" Sanji replied sweetly while handing foods to the others.
"Is Luffy okay?" Nami asked softly.
Sanji turned seriously and said, "He's acting strange today. He was eating silently and it's like he was not in himself."
"See?! Luffy's sick!" Usopp added.
"We should find a doctor!" Chopper freaked out and started running back and forth.
"You're the doctor, Chopper," Usopp said flatly.
"Oh! I forgot! I should go and check him now!" Chopper replied.
A sudden surge of sadness engulfed Nami but she managed to hold steadily her composure.
"Listen everyone," Nami said, "This book tells a story about the dark purple pearl of the Black Island."
The atmosphere turned so cold and eerie when Nami continued, "And this book will lead us in finding the truth behind Robin and Zoro's disappearance."
The whole ship quivered a little and it was then they realized that they reached already the gloomy shores of the Black Island.
