Chapter 2

Everyone was starting to wake up from a good night's sleep. Nami was out on the deck thinking about something. And then, for no reason, she started daydreaming about Luffy. It took about 5 seconds before she caught herself and started to blush with a shocked look on her face.

'Wh-Why am I thinking about Luffy?!' she thought flustered.

"NAMI!" shouted Luffy.

"Ahhhhhh!" Nami struggled to keep her balance from almost falling over.

"Hm? What's up?" asked Luffy.

"Oh. Uh...N-Nothing!" she said, still a little red.

"Well, whatever. Do you know when we'll reach land?

"Tomorrow, since the winds aren't too strong today.

"Okay then."

They stood there for a few minutes alone, looking out to the sea.

"Hey, Luffy?" asked Nami.

"Hm?"

"You told me before that you met someone important to you in the colliseum at Dressrosa. Who was it?" she asked, curious.

"Oh, it was my brother!"

"W-what?! But Ace is-"

"Not Ace. My oldest brother, Sabo. Believe it or not, I thought he died years ago, but it turns out that he's alive, and he ended up eating the flare flare fruit, too!"

"Really? Then why didn't you invite him to join us?"

"He has his own responsibilities. Apparently, he's second in command of the revolutionaries and works directly under my dad."

"Eh?! Well, if you say so." Nami was quite surprised at Luffy's decision. When he was trying to recruit her, he wouldn't accept anyone else, and kept trying until she said yes. She wondered why he wanted her of all people to sail with him.

"Luffy?"

"What is it?"

"Actually, never mind."

"If you say so."

Just then, Sanji appeared. "Nami-Swaaaaan, Robin-Chwaaaaaaan!"

"Oh, wonderful, here we go..." (reference to Soul Eater episode 3 English dub) said Nami sarcastically.

Luffy started to chuckle at Nami's remark. She smiled, smirking.

"Nami-Swan, I made you a drink!"

"Oh, thanks, Sanji, but I'm not really thirsty."

"Oh, then I'll have it." said Zoro, taking it as he walked by.

A pause.

"WHAT THE HELL, MOSS HEAD! (Marimo in English) "I made that drink for Nami!"

"The hell if I care, she said she didn't want it anyway." remarked Zoro.

By now, everyone else had gathered and started to do their usual activities. Usopp and Chopper fishing, Robin reading, Franky checking to make sure the ship was in good shape, and Brook getting knocked aside from asking Robin if he could see her panties.

"Don't make me kick your ass, Swordsman!"

"Oh please, we all know that I'm stronger than you."

"Oh, is that so? Guys, who's stronger?"

"Zoro" said everyone in unison without even looking up from what they were doing.

Just then, the mail bird flew overhead and the newspaper fell out.

Nami caught it and opened it. And 9 new wanted posters fell out onto the deck.

She bent down and examined them.

...EH?!

End.
