Chapter 1
In the New World, it was like any other day for the Straw Hat Crew. Usopp was out on the deck catching fish in the afternoon, with no success, Chopper was in the medical room making medicine, and Zoro was in the Watch Tower carrying huge amounts of weights that if you were trying to carry them you'll probably break your back.
Brook was sitting on the deck playing peaceful melodies, and Nami and Robin were resting outside on lawn chairs while Sanji was swooning about how Nami and Robin were looking beautiful right now while giving them drinks.
As time passed by, Nami noticed that a certain person was missing from the scene and it seemed quite. Now, many people would say that it being quite should be quite normal, but when you have an over-enthusiastic Captain who has an attention span below zero, having a quiet day is nothing but unusual.
"Hey, guys, have any of you seen Luffy?" Nami said curiously.
"I haven't seen him since this morning and he seemed in a grumpy mood." Robin said
"Now that I think about it, he wasn't stealing any of our food." Usopp replied
"I think we need to go look for him. Something bad could have happened." Nami said
Since everyone heard the conversation among the three, everyone met in the center of the ship to discuss a way to find Luffy.
"Chopper, can you smell Luffy's scent? It be easier to find him if we follow the scent." Usopp said.
"Sorry, but ever since you put pesticide on Robin's plant I can't smell anything. You see." As Chopper was talking, he pointed to the plugs he put on his nose to cover the scent of the pesticide.
"Well its okay, we just have to split into teams that way we can find Luffy." Nami said
"Nami-Swaaaan, Robin-Chwaaan! I'll be in a group with you!" Sanji said with eyes in the shape of a hearts.
"Just shut up already Captain Nose bleed, you might get blood all over the floor if you're with them." Zoro shouted
"What did you say Moss-head!? We might need to put a leash on you, so you don't get lost on the ship!" Sanji replied
As Zoro and Sanji were bickering everyone just stared with disbelief on how they acted. But as they were shouting at each other they felt an evil presence around them. As they were turning around to find this sense if evil, you could see them sweating knowing they might not live to see the next day. When they saw where it was coming from, they could only hope that there was enough bandages to cover up the future injuries they will soon receive.
"Nami….wait…just," Zoro said.
"Yea…Nami-swan…let just talk things throoo!"
Before Sanji could complete his sentence Nami punched Zoro and Sanji so hard that they almost got thrown off the ship
"Just shut up already!" Nami said. She gave a sigh and turned over to the rest of the group who were having a sweat drop going across their face.
"Okay, like I was saying, I think we should split into teams. Since there is 8 of us here, we will split in teams of 2." Nami said
"That sound SUPEEER!" Frank said
"Well that sounds like a good idea. Well, I'll go with Sanji and Chopper can go with Zoro. We don't need those two breaking the ship while we look for Luffy." Usopp said
"Okay, Usopp can go with Sanji and Chopper can go with Zoro. Brook, you can go with Franky and I'll go with Robin. Any objections?" Nami said.
"Nope," everyone said.
And the search began. Everyone was looking in different places. Some were looking in the boy's dormitory and going under beds. Some were looking in the workshop wondering if Luffy was messing with Usopp or Franky's inventions. And others were looking in the watch tower and in the aquarium room. The search all ended when they heard a big crash in the kitchen. Soon everybody ran into the kitchen and saw the unexpected. Most were in shock at what they were seeing, but one person was just in a state of anger.
"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO MY KITCHEN!LUFFFFYYYY!" Sanji busted out saying.
The state of the kitchen was in horrible condition. A pan had fallen off the table and was rolling on its edge (suggesting that it was the source of the sound). Plates, knives, and cups were all over the floor and some of the plates and cups were broken. The table chairs were all over the floor and the table was flipped over.
Now many people would wonder why Sanji would accuse Luffy of doing this when he wasn't here when the kitchen fell into chaos. But out of all of the mess that was made, there was a certain spot that could only conclude that this was an act made by Luffy.
Out of all the mess that was made, there was a broken lock on the floor. A lock that was only used for the refrigerator. And if you were to look further beyond the broken lock, you could see the refrigerator wide open, and in the refrigerator, all off contents it had yesterday were in there today except for one thing. All the meat was missing.
"Telling from all this mess, there's no way Luffy could have done all this just a few minutes ago. I'm surprised that this all happened right under our noses and we didn't even hear anything." Robin declared.
"Guys, I think I know why Luffy did this" Usopp said
"What is it?" Nami said
*Flashback.*
Yesterday, the crew had landed on an island where the town was booming with music, dancing, parades, and mostly importantly for the Captain. Meat. When the crew set sail from the island last night all Luffy was thinking about was the meat at town and how he wanted more of it. Later on that night he had fell asleep along with the rest of the crew and everybody in the room with him could hear him mumbling,
"Meat…meat….meat"
It was the next day and it was still early in the day and Sanji had called everyone to go get breakfast. So as soon as Luffy heard Sanji call for breakfast, he shot up from the bed like a bullet. He ran out of the room forgetting his cardigan but was soon pulled by Zoro.
"Just wait a second! You haven't taken a bath in days and I don't need to be smelling you're bad odor as we eat." Zoro stated.
Luffy huffed about the comment, but soon understood. As he was entering the men quarters to grab his cardigan, all the guys was entering the kitchen. Chopper and Usopp were about to be the last to enter with the guys until they both saw Nami walking with Robin, who was blushing.
"Nami!" Chopper shouted while running to Nami. Usopp had seen this and grew suspicious. Finally as Chopper made it to Nami, he started looking through his bag and found what he was looking for.
"Here it is!" Chopper said as he pulled out a thermometer (the thermometer doctors use to put inside their patients mouth) and stuck it in Nami mouth.
"Wait mhmhmh" Nami exclaimed but was too late as the thermometer was in her mouth.
"That's weird. Your cheeks are all flushed but you don't have a temperature. I think I have to do a further test." As Chopper was talking he turned into heavy point and was carrying Nami to the medical room."
"Wait, Chopper! Usopp, Robin do something!" Nami shouted
"Sorry Nami, but doctors' orders." Robin said with sarcasm.
"Robin! Ok, fine have it your way! You can tell them but only Chopper! And only in the medical room!" Nami said.
"I thought you said." Robin was going to continue but was soon cut off.
"Forget what I said! Just do it! And Usopp, if the crew ask what happened, just tell them I was getting a medical checkup with Robin!" Nami exclaimed.
Usopp was now in complete confusion. But none the less, he was suspicious on Nami's behavior and attitude, but if he were to tell everybody else what had happened here, Nami would for sure kill him. So he promised himself he wouldn't tell anyone.
So Usopp continued on his way to the kitchen forgetting the whole mess. He soon walked in and saw that the food was being served and everybody in the kitchen was getting settled in. It was a bit peaceful until…
"MEAAATTTTTTTTT!" Luffy exclaimed while rushing into the kitchen. Everyone had a smile knowing he still was the same-old Luffy that they meet a few years ago. Everyone soon sat down and was ready to eat.
"Here is your breakfast." Everyone was astonished by the sweet aroma of the food. There was eggs, waffles, toast, pancakes, oranges, and even alcohol that Zoro can drink. Anyone can be more than satisfied about the food. But there was a little tiny problem about the food that was being served for a man with a monstrosity appetite.
"Hey, Sanji, where the meat?" Luffy said
"About that…." Sanji said with a gloomy expression
"Well , where the meat? I want some really bad!" Luffy said with excitement.
"Well, there is meat, but we are running low on it and I'm planning on saving it for dinner tonight. So throughout the day, you can't have any meat." Sanji said with the sweetest tone he could make, knowing that for Luffy this was the hardest thing he would ever have to hear. Most people would say
"Well it's not that bad, I could last without meat for the whole day."
But with Luffy, it a whole different story. For him, having no meat for a day is like him jumping into the ocean without a life jacket. Luffy at first was in shock. But he soon shook off the idea and started laughing and everybody was looking at him crazy.
"ShiShiShi," Luffy laughed, "You're funny Sanji! You tried to prank me and I almost fell for it! That was good. Now really though, where is the meat?" Luffy said as he was wiping a tear from his eye.
"Luffy," Sanji said "I'm being serious. There not enough meat to have for breakfast and lunch and I planning on cooking the meat that is left for dinner."
Luffy knew now that he was telling the truth this time and he didn't bother even saying anything. He just walked to take a seat and just started playing with his food. Franky was about to walk to Luffy and to tell him it was okay but Zoro pulled him back by his shoulder. Franky was about to protest but Zoro just shook his head. The atmosphere of the kitchen felt like they were attending a funeral and Luffy was the most affected about it.
A couple minutes later Nami, Robin, and Chopper came into the kitchen and everyone except Luffy (too busy being depressed) was curious. Robin came in giggling, Chopper started dancing around and moving his hips like he does when someone was complementing him, and to everyone surprise. Nami was blushing.
"Hey, Nami, what up with your face," Zoro asked with a curiosity. "Are you blushing?"
Nami soon realized and soon stopped herself. "No, I was just, ummm…."
"My Nami-swaaaannnnnn was thinking about me!" Sanji said as he was twirling around the table.
Nami was soon pulsing with anger cause of Sanji twirling and his chanting on about how much Nami loved Sanji and soon get infuriated. His yelling and twirling around the room was giving her a headache and she couldn't handle it anymore. She soon walked up to Zoro and whispered in his ear.
"If you trip Sanji and make him shut up, I will cut off a million beli from your debt. You better decide now, because this is only a one time offer." Nami whispered. Zoro understood and was extremely happy that he was less in debt by doing something he loves. Making Sanji's day a living hell.
Zoro soon stood up from his chair and was leaning against the wall. He was standing there unnoticeably and was waiting until Sanji came to this side of the table. When Sanji finally made it over Zoro picked up his foot and placed it right in front of the pathway where Sanji was going to. Soon enough Sanji tripped over Zoro's foot and everybody was laughing.
"Damn you Moss-head! I'm going to stick my foot so far up …" Sanji was trying to say but was soon cut off.
"Oh Sanji, can you please serve me and Robin food. We're getting hungry." Nami stated.
"Of course! Anything for my SWEEET ANGELS!" Sanji exclaimed.
Finally, after for some time, everybody was at the table enjoying their meal. Well almost everybody. After 10 minutes of eating at the table everyone realized that everything was not how it use to be. There weren't hearing munching of food or they weren't seeing hands go onto their plate and steal their food.
Everyone soon realized that Luffy was gloomy. The only thing he was doing was just staring at his plate and just picking at his food and eating small amounts of it. Almost everyone felt sorry for him but they knew he had to deal with it. But almost everyone.
Nami couldn't help feel sad about. Not the fact the he is not getting any meat, but the fact that he was sad.
"Hmmmm, what can I do to make Luffy happy right now?" Nami thought." What can I do, what can I do?"
As Nami was thinking she finally got an idea. Nami, who was sitting next to Luffy, leaned over and asked with a whisper.
"Luffy, do you want some meat? I can get some for you, but you owe me." Luffy looked up with a smile.
"Reallyyy?!" Luffy said with a loud whisper and Nami smirked.
"Sanji, can you grab some meat from the refrigerator and make some for Luffy? It doesn't have be a lot." Nami said with pleading eyes.
"Anything for you Nami-Swaaaan!" Sanji exclaimed.
"Yes! I finally get some meat!" Luffy said as he got out of his chair and started to dance. He soon went to Nami, pulled her out of her chair, and started to hug her.
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" Luffy said repeatedly. "I owe you big time!"
"It okay Luffy, you're welcome." Nami said as she started to blush and was able to hide her blushing from the others. "I just wanted to see you happy." Nami said as she decided to hug him back. Luffy soon gave Nami his Straw Hat.
"Here. I know it not a lot to owe you, but wear it until I'm able to pay you back." Luffy said.
"Thanks Lu…" Nami tried to say but was soon pulled back by 50 hands.
"Robin, what are you doing?" Nami said confused but soon understood as Sanji ran up and kicked Luffy.
"Don't lay you're dirty hands on Nami-swaaan!" Sanji said. Everyone had seen that Sanji kicked Luffy and thought he had kicked him seriously but lucky Sanji just decided to kick him hard enough to push him off.
"Thanks Robin, if I would have stayed in that position a little longer I would have gotten hit. Luffy, are you okay?" Nami said.
"It okay! I'm fine, I just want my meat already." Luffy said as he laughed.
"As usual, you can never really get mad at anyone." Nami said as she smiled.
After the little event happened, everyone sat back at the table and everyone was in a good mood. Luffy was finally eating (only the meat) and everyone was in a happy mood.
In a couple minutes, Luffy had finished the meat the he was given and didn't want to eat the other food, so soon he asked…
"Sanji! More meat pleasssseee!" Luffy said
"No more meat! Remember, I still have to save the rest for dinner." Sanji said
"Nami, help me." Luffy asked
"Sorry Luffy but he needs to save it for dinner." Nami said
"Luffy, what about you, me, and Chopper go fishing and we can ask Sanji to cook the fish that we catch for lunch." Usopp said.
"That sounds like fun. Let go!" Luffy said
*Present Time*
"…..and that what happened" Usopp said as he was explaining what had happened this morning and last night. "Luffy woke up this morning, wanting to ONLY eat meat and nothing else. He asked Sanji for meat, but Sanji tells him no. Nami helped Luffy get meat, and later when Luffy is done eating the meat, he can't get anymore.
The last thing that happened before all this is when me, Luffy, and Chopper went to the side of the ship to go fish. Luffy got bored later and he told us he was going to go do something else. I thought nothing of it until now. He did all this because he still wanted meat!" Usopp said proudly as he felt he just uncovered a detective case.
"Yohohoho, that sounds like Luffy." Brook said
"That make sense and all but this doesn't explain the huge mess in the kitchen much less where he is." Nami noted
"You're right. We just have to keep on looking." Usopp stated.
And the search continues…
