"Luffy! Where are you?" yelled Nami as she walked into a large clothing warehouse. The lights were still on, but the entire place was eerily quiet. Her voice echoed through the building. "Luffy...luffy...luffy...where...where...are...are...you…"

"Nami. I'm here! Wait where you are and I'll come to you" said Luffy. Her head popped out from the top of the endless row of shelves. Once she spotted where Nami was, she started to descend down from the ladder and slowly make her way towards the exit where Nami was waiting.

"Nami, what are you doing here?" asked Luffy while catching her breath

"I was sent by Robin to come and check up on you. She said you were spending many hours here everyday for the past week. All of us were wondering why you haven't been showing up for school. We were all worried"

"I...It's...Come closer." whispered Luffy

"I...I have something to share with you. I had finally figured things out. Don't tell anyone about this or what I have been doing. It's going to be a surprise, but I am looking for the perfect one piece swimsuit" said Luffy with a goofy smile and stars in her eyes.

"One piece swimsuit?" asked Nami with a confused look " Why are you going through so much trouble for one. You can easily buy one online or go in store."

"You don't understand Nami. It has to be the perfect one. That's why I am looking here."

"What is this place?" ask Nami, looking around for signs "Robin didn't tell me anything when she sent me the directions."

"This is the warehouse for East Blue, the world's number one company when it comes to swimsuits. They supply every brand you can think of and this entire warehouse is devoted to their collection of one piece swimsuits!"

Luffy was talking excitedly when she paused. She looked down at her shoes and her expression changed to one of dejection. "Nami, we have been nakamas for many years now. You were one of the first nakamas I made when my family moved here. We had been through many ups and downs, sailed through many hardships, and trekked through various group adventures. I worked very hard to make sure that our group of nakama stayed together and whenever our other nakamas need help, I wouldn't hesitate to go to them."

"I know, Luffy. It's been hard on you and we love you for it. You have been a great leader." said Nami, trying to console Luffy

"I had never had nakamas growing up. I only had Ace and Sabo to play with. You guys meant the world to me and just having nakamas should have been enough for me. But I'm selfish, Nami. I wanted him to notice me and to see me as a woman instead of a nakama." muttered Luffy to her shoes

"Aw Luffy. Have you tried dressing differently? I'm sorry Luffy, but what you usually wear doesn't help you show off your figure."

"I know. All my clothes are hand-me-downs from Sabo and Ace. I have tried dressing up, but every time I tried to leave the house, I get confront by Sabo and Ace who made me change my clothes. They forbid me from wearing anything that is revealing or figure hugging. I tried everything. Sneaking out from my window. Parachuting from the roof. Drugging their food. I even tried changing at school, but they caught me before I could even walk three steps from the bathroom. I can't even approach other guys without my brothers knowing about it " said Luffy exasperatedly

"So, you want to get a bathing suit for our class trip to Jeju Island next week to catch his attention?"

"Yes! It'll be the only time I'll be away from my brothers and with them gone, I can seduce..ahem..I mean attract his attention" said Luffy loudly
