Chapter 2

Luffy opened his eyes. He was feeling sick, as if he had gone through a spiral tunnel for a long time, while running nonstop. He sat up in bed and felt dizzy, sitting for a while for it to pass.

He heard his stomach growl as he walked to the kitchen and when he opened the door of the small room he shouted.

"SANJI! I WANT MEAT!"

Everyone at the table jumped with fright; nobody expected a scream so loud for a calm morning.

"No need to scream, Ruffy… Your plate is already on the table as always. Are you sick for you yelling so loud?"

Luffy stopped to think. Yes, he thought. But just for three seconds. All he was able to notice was that Sanji had called him "Ruffy" and not "Luffy".

"Yes, I think I am… I woke up sick…"

"Are you going to die?" Nami asked afraid.

"A classic thought of an idiot like you…" Zoro said.

"Don't talk to her like this, marimo…-chan."

"Remove the 'chan', you gay guy!"

"Oh, come on! Everyone knows you love me, too!"

"Get out! Want a fight, little woman?"

And then they began to fight as always. Luffy rose an eyebrow, thinking… again. This time it was about Zoro calling Sanji a gay. Now he had thought twice and he couldn't stand it. He was getting a headache.

"It seems like you have a headache, captain-san. Doctor-san, why you don't give him an examination?" Robin asked.

"Yes; I'll examine it. We'll go to the infirmary, Ruffy." Chopper said changing his form to get faster. Luffy just followed him, wondering why he was being called Ruffy.


"So you are telling me you're Luffy but in the same time you're not?" Ussop asked to his captain, undecided whether to believe it or not.

"Yes.. It's odd but it makes sense. You said that I normally, or him, am an idiot right?" Ussop nodded. "I'm more mature, not an idiot. In my crew just one person is an idiot."

"If it's not you, then who is it?" Ussop asked curiously.

Luffy just blushed. After a few minutes the eyes of his best friend widened.

"That can't be! She was the smartest of the crew next to Robin!"

"Wait! Robin was smart here as well?"

Both stopped when they noticed there was something in common with both crews. One single person remains the same, what could be the salvation for the current Luffy back to where he came from.

"This can help us to solve your problem. But let's keep it a secret for now, ok? We have to find out first why you got here. Did you feel something strange today?"

"Hm.. I felt sick when I woke up as if I had traveled through a tunnel in spiral for a long time, running non-stop… And when I stood up I instantly had a sudden dizziness… By the way, call me 'Ruffy'. It's weird you're calling me 'Luffy' all the time!"

"Why? It's practically the same thing in our language and everyone will wonder this if we call you 'Ruffy' out of nowhere. We'll investigate these symptoms. Maybe we have to talk to Robin sooner than we thought. But can you answer me one thing?"

"What?"

"If Nami is so stupid as you say, how did you end up loving her?"

Ruffy blushed entirely. He didn't know why… He simply found her attractive at first but then it crossed the line. When he realized he just wanted to protect that scatterbrain. Not that the rest of the crew were less important.

"I don't know. I just started loving her. That's all."

He could be another Luffy but he's still the same person without reason to do or like something.

"You're like him till the end."

"Are we? Why?"

"You never know the reason why you like or will do something specific. There must be some connection between you two, what can also help us take you back."

They were talking for hours and didn't realize it was time for dinner. Ruffy noticed that someone was behind him and took a fright when he saw who it was.

"Time for dinner. Didn't you hear Sanji call?" Nami said crouching next to the captain.

Ussop saw that Ruffy was looking totally in love with his navigator. Realizing that he wouldn't open his mouth to speak, Ussop decided to answer the question.

"No.. We are so excited talking here that we paid no attention."

"I understand. Luffy, are you okay?" Nami said putting her hand on the forehead of the captain. "You don't even smell the food… Is everything all right?"

Ruffy couldn't stand it. Ussop's eyes widened and blushed when he saw the scene. Nami didn't understand anything at all. Her captain had drawn her near to him and kissed her.
