"Well Joe, if you are going to join the crew than you will need a room to sleep in," said Franky.
"No, I don't need a room to sleep in. I will just sleep on the deck," replied Joe.
"Are you sure?" Luffy asked.
Joe smiled, "I will be fine."
"I guess it is time to go to bed." Nami said as she went to her room.
Joe waved good night and then turned to the others "Franky, I need to speak to you in private." Franky nodded and went with Joe out to the deck while everyone else went to bed. "So Franky, I am getting a feeling that you think love is truly important. Am I right?" Joe asked.
"You are." Franky replied as he crossed his arms in front of his chest.
"Well, I also have a feeling that a pair has already been made but it is not going the way you want. So… who is the pair?" asked Joe with a smirk.
Looking around to make sure that no one was there Franky leaned in towards Joe. "Well, it is Luffy and Nami." Franky whispered.
"I see, so I will help you out. But first I need a list of what Nami likes and dislikes and the same thing for Luffy." Joe said.
"I will get them for you Joe, you can count on me." Franky replied while saluting.
The next day at breakfast
"Sanji , what's taking so long ?" Luffy asked.
"Well Luffy the damn burner won't start that's what is taking so long!" Sanji yelled.
"Really, that's it? Well, let me fix that. What kind of meat do you want and how do you want it cooked?" Joe said as he rolled up his sleeves to get to work.
"Sirloin on a bone with just a touch of pink inside." Luffy replied.
"In that case, this will be fast." Joe retorted with a smirk. Everyone was stunned as Joe's arm turned to a flamethrower and cooked Luffy's breakfast.
"There, done. Here you go Luffy," Joe said. He tossed Luffy the meat as Luffy's eyes returned from stars to normal.
"Now this is the best meat I ever had!" Luffy chimed.
A smile formed on Joe's face as he said, "Well, I do my best for my captain."
Later on the deck
"Franky do you have it yet?" Joe asked.
"Yes right here, everyone is with us on this plan of yours…well, except for Sanji." Franky said.
"That is to be expected. Hmmm….. I think my first plan will be 'Joe's Leap For Help!!' plan!" Joe exclaimed.
The room for the Committee of Couple Keeping.
"'Joe's Leap For Help!!' plan!" Usopp said.
"I know, I know. It is a bad plan name but it was the first thing I came with." Joe said with a shrug. "It is sketchy but it will work if all of us do this together. Now Part 1: everyone but Luffy and Nami gets knocked out. Part 2: I create an icy chill over the entire ship. Part 3: Nami notices that the tangerines will die if she does not do anything. Part 4: She needs help and only Luffy is available. Part 5: After the tangerines are saved she trips onto Luffy and accidentally kisses him. Part 6: She realizes her love for him and they live happily ever after." Joe finished with a smug look.
"It is so horrible that it might actually work." Zoro said.
"Hey! It will work and we will execute it tonight so everyone to your stations!" Joe commanded.
I do not own One Piece!!
