(The next morning)
The ship is hading towards to Orange Town, is early at the morning and very few of the crew have already awaken, Makino and Robin walk to the kitchen to make some coffee and the both of them are wondering where Amaya is. Last night the little girl was sleeping with Robin and Makino at their room but when they woke up the girl is missing.
"Let's go search for Amaya" Makino said "I think I know where is she: Robin answer and both of them start walking outside of the kitchen. Robin give her cup of coffee to Makino and cross her hands. "Wait what are you doing?" Makino ask, Robin just smile and say to her to watch carefully.
"Ojos Fleur" Robin called and with that she sprouts hands with eyes at her palm so that she can see where Amaya is after one minute she giggle and nod to Makino to follow her disengage her arms. They both start to walk towards captain's cabin but before they reach their destination they heard an explosion and one screaming Luffy, immediately they ran and open the door but what they see makes both of them to start laughing.
(They see one little girl half-awake half-sleeping and beside her a little fried dumbfounded smoking Luffy with a vein popping at his forehead.)
"Good morning papa" Amaya said with a grin and absolutely clueless about what just happen, Luffy look at his young daughter and face palm his forehead.
"Good morning Amaya" Luffy respond after one minute. The little girl look at her father and throw herself at him to look if her father was ok.
"Sorry papa.! Are you ok…are you hurt?" the now crying and worrying little girl ask Luffy. He smile at her and put his hat on her head. "Nah I'm okay Amaya I can take a lot more than that." He say to his daughter and pat her head. The little girl giggle and hug Luffy. "Wow papa is strong!" Now Makino and Robin sit beside the two of them and the four of them start laughing.
After a few minutes and after Makino, Robin and Amaya has left his room Luffy start put his clothes on and walk towards his desk, he open his desk drawer and get his briefcase. He look at his devil fruit and thinking that now probably is a very good time for him to eat it because one more stronger electrocution from his daughter and he will be alive for not much time. He sigh and eat it with a disgust at his face from the bad taste but almost immediately he start to feel the major change at his powers and little sparks of lightning start to surround his body. And with that he start walking towards the door and exited his room.
After good morning all of his crew he walk towards to the kitchen to get some coffee, he get his cup put some coffee on and then walk out of the kitchen to sit his throne and relax. He put down at each side of his throne his bisento and his sword and take a sip of his coffee.
That's a damn good coffee is thinking and look at the sea. He activate his Kenbunshoku haki to see the difference now who he is eaten his devil fruit and truthfully the difference is big, he can see and sense life force from a very far distance than before. He smile as he sense Robin approach him.
"Ah Robin, is something that I can help you?" ask her as he smile, Robin giggle and sit down beside him at her smaller throne. (He look at her always smiling something about her make him always happy) "You look somehow different" she say to him, Luffy nod his head. "Aye I just ate my devil fruit". Robin look at him and smile.
"Any particular reason for do it this now? "Aye, two reasons actually. First to get fried from electrocution is not at my top list. So if Amaya continues to come at nights at my room and want to sleep with me I don't want to be fried again." Robin giggle as she hear this, for some reason she find this morning event very amusing and very very cute. Luffy look at her and frown make Robin to cup his face with her hands, and Luffy to blush.
Make a fake cough to hide the awkwardness Luffy continues. "And the second reason is to be able to teach Amaya to learn how to control her powers, before she fried the whole ship or anyone else at the crew" say Luffy and Robin nod her head. (Somehow that he just say make her to love him and respect him even more as if that is possible.) "By the way do you have seen Zoro at all?" Luffy ask her put her out from her trance, she nod her head. "Ah… Luffy you certainly know how to ruin a beautiful moment.!…Zoro is at the training room" she says with a frown at her face. Luffy smile at her but say nothing, he put one hand oh her cheek and then he put a soft kiss at her lips leaving her blushing and dumbfounded. And with that without any words he stand up and start to walk towards the training room leaving Tobin again at her trance.
(She has dreaming this moment very times at her mind, but this time that moment was true and she have done nothing…She has not return his kiss back…she has not tell him how in love is with him…she ….she has done nothing at all. She was a freaking statue for the love of the god. Now a new terror start to rise inside her. She has not kiss him back, what if he thinks that she doesn't love him, what if he thinks that she doesn't like that he kiss her, what….what have I done? She started thinking and panicking. After a few minutes finally brake from her trance as she watch her crash leave)
No I won't thinking like that, I tell him that I'm in love with him and that I want to be together. The next time I see him and we are alone I will tell him what I feel no matter what.! She murmured to herself.
Luffy was outside of the training room and he is watching Zoro to practice with his swords, he knock the door and wait for respond. "Come in" Zoro said.
"Good morning Zoro, Robin told me that you are here so I was wondering if you want to have a little spar with me" Luffy said looking at him, Zoro has starting to sweat if Luffy use more than he can handle he was pretty much a dead man.
"Don't worry I know that you are strong enough but you are no match for my skills at this point, so I will go easy with you this time and slowly but steady we will increase the level of our practice." He say to Zoro and he nod his head.
"That will be interesting to spar with one of the best swordsman" he say to Luffy and smirk. "I was told you Zoro I'm not actually a swordsman, I just know a few moves with a sword and with my bisento" Luffy tells him and grin. "Hm… and why I don't believe you?" Zoro respond to him and Luffy just shrugs.
"Come" he said and the both of them walk outside of the training room walk towards the upper deck who have a lot of free space to practice.
As they reach the place they found Makino play with Amaya and Alvida to watching them, the moment the little girl spot Luffy she immediately run to him and climb at his shoulder making Makino, Alvida and Zoro to smile at the image of two of them.
Luffy kneel and take his little daughter at his arms and hug her. "Amaya me and Zoro we will practice for a while " say to the little girl as she frown, "look it might be dangerous for you to be here as we spar, and the last think I want is to get hurt. So can you do me a favor?" Luffy ask softly his daughter. "Whatever you want papa" she says with a big smile at her face. Luffy smile at her and kiss her at her forehead. "Ok, I want to stay away from here, you can watch with Makino or go to find Robin and play with her. Can you do that for me?" Amaya nod her head and goes to Makino follow by Alvida and the three of them keep a safe distance for Zoro and Luffy who are ready to start their sparring.
Luffy unsheathe his sword and the same does Zoro with all of his three swords.
"Zoro I want to come at me with everything you have, don't hold back even an inch." Luffy say to him. Zoro eyebrow and smirk.
Zoro crosses his two swords across his chest and places the blade in his mouth horizontally behind them.
Santoryu: "Oni Giri" he say and with that he attack to Luffy with high speed but to his absolute frustration Luffy block all of his three swords. Zoro just stand there baffled and with widen eyes and he start to thinking that there is no way…No way that the gap between the two of them is that big. He jump backwards and try to attack once again.
Santoryu: "Tora Gari" he say and with that he try attack again to Luffy as he puts his hand swords over his mouth blade and swings forth a forward descending slash with them to cut Luffy but again Luffy block the attack effortlessly.
Now Zoro is really mad and try to cut Luffy slashing his swords at all direction only to find himself disarmed and with a sword at his throat.
"I could kill you right here and now and still not have a clue how I was disarmed you or how my sword reached your throat" Luffy say to him with a serious voice. Zoro look at him with embarrassment at his face and then look at the floor. Luffy sheath again his sword, put an arm at Zoro shoulder and smile back to him.
"Look, I said you to come with everything you had because I wanted to see the gap between us. Now who you see it the next time you will be stronger and more prepare." Zoro look at him, he smile and no his head.
"Also the first attack has one big flaw at your technique, there is a single brief moment when the three swords are all lined up behind each other. If someone can block them at that instant as I do, the entire technique will be rendered useless." He said again and Zoro look at him with widen eyes as he finally realize how Luffy was able to stop his attack.
"I want you to try to rise you speed and also I will teach you how to infuse haki to your swords and the Kenbunshoku haki to be able to anticipate your enemy moves." He said to Zoro and smile at him.
"Aye Captain" Zoro said with a smile.
Luffy look at him with a frown at his face, "My name is Luffy, not captain Zoro and I want to speak me with my name. I hate formalities. Is that okay with you?" Zorro look at him dumbfounded but then he smile and nod his head. He never hear a captain that he hates the crew of him to call him captain, that guy was for sure different for every other person Zoro has meet at the past and he not regret for a moment that he accept his proposal to be part of crew. He will be the King of the pirates, Zoro have no doubt about this and with the help of Luffy he will fulfil his promise to Kuina.
And with that Luffy leave and go to see Aladdin and to ask him if they are close to their destination, with Amaya never leave his side.
After half hour they reach Orange town and the entire crew decide to come to town to rest, Luffy is walking forward with his daughter at his shoulder and at his other hand he hold his bisento and beside him at each side of him was Makino with Robin and Aladdin, behind them was Zoro, Alvida, Blueno, Kaku and Kalifa (who the last three of them are starting to grow fond about the little girl.) and behind of the four of them all the rest.
As they walk through the street of the town they observe that the houses are empty and abandoned and they only place that someone can find any trace of life is a bar, so they decide to walk towards to the bar to see what happens at this town.
As they approach the bar they see a slim, yet muscular blue-haired man dressed as a clown, with a big red nose on his face.
"So you must be Buggy.!" Luffy say to the clown-man, "Yes I am captain Buggy. Who are you…have we met again?" Buggy ask as he looking at Luffys hat. "No we have not met again, that hat gave it to me a common friend and my name is Luffy, Monkey. D. Luffy" the young captain say with a grin at his face.
At the hearing of his name Buggy and his crew has frozen.
"You don't by any means be The Monkey. D. Luffy of the Whitebeard pirates.?!" All of them ask the young captain with one voice. Luffy just nod his head.
"Wow papa is strong and very known" Amaya say and rise her hands at the air make everyone at Luffy group to laugh. Luffy smile at her and continues as he look at Buggy who now is petrified from fear.
"As I said that hat belongs to Shanks and he gave it to me to keep it safe." "Now I have one proposition for you." He say and look the clown-man with serious gaze. "I know that you have cause problems at this town," Buggy and his pirates gulp.
"So if you come with me I don't punish you if you don't come… I will hit you to the point that you are one more breath away from be dead." He say and look at Buggy who his jaw hit the ground and his eyeballs are out of his skull. Luffy smirk and continues once more.
"But, I will give you a chance if you win one of us you will be free to leave and no one of us will hunt you. But if you lose you will join my crew" Luffy say to Buggy who now for some dumb reason he smiles.
"Before we can start I want to be clear. First, you can choose any of us to fight except my daughter and he point with one hand to Amaya, and Makino as he point with his other hand beside him but the fight will be one to one and no one can interfere. And second if you lose and try to escape I will personally hunt you down and kill all of you. Do I make myself clear?" he say to Buggy and now all of them gulp even Zoro.
After one minute Buggy finally found his voice and start to look which one he can choose to have a better chance for a win and he's thinking that the woman behind Luffy seems much less experience than the others.
"I will fight with her." he say and point his hand towards Kalifa, Luffy is at the verge of heart attack from the laughs and all the others look at him with sweat drops at their heads.
After a minute or so he stop and look at Kalifa he smile and then at Buggy. "Really from all the people here you pick up Kalifa?" he say and sigh "Anyway it's your funeral after all but don't say after that I didn't warn you" he continues and Buggy now is dumbfounded but he smirk.
Kalifa start to walk toward Buggy but she stop when she felt a hand on her shoulder to hold her. She look back and she see that it was Luffy. Luffy approach her and look her in the eyes. He lean toward her ear "I have absolute faith at you so don't you dare lose.! ...And please try not to kill him" he whisper at her ear and smile at her making Kalifa blush and nod her head.
She start to walk again towards Buggy and look at him, "If you think that I'm the weakest person at that crew then you find soon that you make a grave mistake" she said and Buggy now gulp thinking that maybe he has make a very big mistake.
Buggy smile and begin to attack, "Bara Bara Ho" he say and shoots his hand at Kalifa as he hold a knife aiming her chest. Kalifa use Tekkai and stop the knife for hurting her.
"I will give you one more chance to hit me, if you don't succeed then I will end this game" Kalifa say to him.
He growl and try to attack again, "Bara Bara Senbei" he say and reveal tiny blades on the tips of his shoes and after he separate his lower half, he spin his legs at a high velocity so to make his lower half into a spinning saw of death. Kalifa smile and use Tekkai "Utsugi" and not only stop Buggy's attack but also transfer the shock of the attack back to him, make him scream fro, the pain.
Kalifa now is thinking that she have enough and after using Soru to disappear and reappear in front of Buggy she murmured Tekkai Kenpo "Don Poro" and with that she punch Buggy at the gut knocking him out. She look back at Luffy and start to walk towards him.
Luffy frown as he look at Buggy who was out cold, and now look at Kalifa who look at him and smile.
"Kalifa it was really necessary to knock him out?" he ask her, she hold his arm smile at him "You told me not to kill him! …But about knock him out you don't say anything.!" She respond with a frown at her face. He look at her and smile "I guess that your right, after all He is that pick you as his opponent." He say and grin at her.
Now the crew sit at the bar waiting for Buggy to wake up, Luffy play with his daughter making silly faces for girl to laugh and making everybody else also smile and laugh at the image of both of them.
After ten minutes Buggy starting to wake up clueless for what is happen, his crew start explain to him that he has lost the fight and they walk inside the bar who Luffy and his crew are.
"So Buggy will you do keep our agreement or not?" Luffy ask him as he continue to play with his daughter. Buggy sigh and then he talk "A deal is a deal" Buggy say, Luffy look at him and smile.
"Then welcome to Straw-hat pirates" he say and the crew start to cheer. Buggy nod his head and smile at them.
After half hour they decide to leave as Luffy start sensing people coming to their place he nod to Blueno and he leave a big bag full of gold with a note back at the bar and with that they walk towards the ship to start they journey again.
Luffy walk to his room to see a map as to where the next island is. It's time to meet with Yasopp son say to himself, so Gecko islands is our next destination his thinking.
(Latter at noon)
"Dinners ready" one of the chefs say and the whole crew start to gathering to the dinner table, Luffy as always sit at the top of the table with his daughter at his lap and beside him Robin and Makino, as they eat Luffy start to look at his crew and pass to them various papers, they all look at him waiting for explanation.
"As you might know the Grand Line is dangerous and there we will find stronger opponents so I make this working schedule for training so everyone can be as strong as possible." He say to them and all nod their heads.
"Makino I want to be able to protect yourself so Zoro will teach you the basics about a sword, and if you want I will saw you too a few moves" say to Makino and she smile. "What about me papa?" Amaya look at him with a frown make everyone at the room to laugh. Luffy look at his daughter and smile as he pat her head.
"Do you want to train you too?" Luffy ask the little girl and she nod her head smiling at him. "Okay then, but first I call a friend to ask him about your powers." He say back to the girl.
After a few hours the dinner was over and everyone is going to sleep, except a certain raven woman and also a father and daughter, Luffy didn't really understand how in the world a little child was so energetic every minute of the day.
Luffy was with his daughter at his throne trying to make her sleep, he knows that soon or later the little girl will find her way to his room so he thinks that is better to put him to his bed from the start. He didn't like Amaya to wander alone at the ship and especially at nights.
After several minutes the girl finally sleeping and it's time to put her at his bed, as he stand up he saw Robin coming to his place he nods her to not make a sound and he walk towards his room with Amaya and Robin follow him.
He put his little daughter at his bed kiss the little girl at her forehead for good night and exited from the room. "Can we talk?" Robin ask him with a soft voice and he nod his head. "Lead the way" he say to her.
She walk to her throne and sit down, Luffy did the same. For a minute no one speak as the both of them look at the sea. Luffy fake a cough since he always hated the silence moments.
"So what are want to talk to me?" he ask and look at her as she blush.
"I… I want….I want to talk about today morning" she said to him trying to look at him, "What about? If you mean about the kiss, I kissed you because I love you." She look at him blushing and dumbfounded, "If you don't like it then….then it's your problem since I will still love you either way so deal with it" he say to her always looking her at her eyes and kissing her again. Now Robin except from speechless was also redder than a tomato from the blushing, she never except to hear those world from Luffy.
"Emm Hello earth calling Robin.!" He say and put her out from her trance, "So you love me too or I speak to myself there?" he ask her but instead to receive an answer she throw herself at him and start kissing him all over his face. "So you Do love me after all" he say to her and smile to each other.
"E.! I do love you" she respond to him she thinking for a minute and then look back at him "How we are going to tell them at the crew and at Amaya?" she ask him. "Well it's not that they have a business with that also Amaya is my daughter so you will be her mother, plain and simple. I don't see the difference from before" Luffy say to her "Amaya spend her whole day with me, you and Makino, it's not that now that we are together the things are going to change or be different from before" he continues as he hold her at his lap and her hand is at the back of his head and smile at her.
"So why don't you sleep with Amya tonight at my bed?" he ask her she look at him with widen eyes and he sigh "Well this way it will be more easy to see you as her mother and she will understand that from now on will be together, it's not like that she is dumb or something." he explain to her and smile. And with that he stand with with Robin at her arms and go for sleep. Robin lie down at one side of the bed, Luffy at the other and at the middle was Amaya they look each other and smiling but soon they find themselves to sleep.
The next morning they woke up they found themselves to be observed by a very happy little girl. Luffy take his daughter at his arms and lifted up make the little girl to laugh from joy as she good morning him with a kiss, then she turn to Robin and look her at her eyes. "So you will be my ma from now on?" ask Robin leave her speechless and make Luffy to laugh as he remember the last nigh conversation of two of them has.
Robin smile and take the little girl at her arms, "Yes I will be but only if you want, you don't need to call me mother if you don't want. I want whatever make you feel easy and whatever is best for you. Nothing more nothing less." She say with both soft voice and smile and earn a kiss from the little girl.
"Nah I will call you Ma, it's only natural you know now that you are with my pa" Amaya say to her making Luffy Laugh even harder than before. The both of them look at him "She sure is your daughter" Robin say to Luffy earn "I told you so" from him.
The days pas with the three of them be inseparable and with everyone train twice the day every day.
After three more days they finally see the Geeko islands but as they approach they saw another ship with a black cat at the figurehead. Shit this must be captain Kuro's ship…but I thought that the guy was dead Luffy said to himself. For some reason he didn't like what he saw but he decide to play along for now.
The ship reach the shore of the island and the crew start to landing, the most of the crew stay at the ship. Luffy with his daughter at his shoulder and Robin, Makino, Alvida, Zoro and Buggy beside him walking to the shore and towards the nearest village.
"We are not alone" Luffy say to them and immediately all of them get alert, "There four people and the three of them are children's" Robin say as she use her powers to see.
Suddenly a slim teenager with medium-length black woolly hair and a long nose appears from the bushes. "I'm the great captain Usopp from the Usopp pirates, leave now or my eight million men will attack you if you will try to attack this land" Usopp say to them make Luffy and Zoro smirk and Robin and Makino giggle.
"Papa who's that idiot with the long nose?" Amaya ask Luffy and make all of them to start laughing and Usopp to sweat drop.
"That Amaya is the son of one of my friend…and a very bad liar also" Luffy say to his daughter looking at her and then look at Usopp.
"You know If you weren't Yasopp son then probably I will had taken you're head for threatening my family" Luffy say to him with serous gaze at his eyes and make Usopp collapse from fear thinking that is another thing to be a real pirate and another thing to play the pirate.
"You know my dad?" Usopp ask as he walk towards Luffy and his crew, "Yes I met your dad a few years ago and became very good friends especially with his captain" Lyffy say to him.
"Come on then let's go to the village to drink something" Usopp say to them and they start to walk towards the village.
Usopp and the crew is now at the bar, some of them eating and others drinking, Luffy tell Usopp about his father and various stories as to how meet Shanks and was raised by Whitebeard pirates and even the training with Mihawk. All of them was amazing about Luffy but especially Usopp and Amaya but for different reason each other. Usopp thinking How mush strong must be Luffy and as for Amaya now she thinking that her dad is more cool than before and even more stronger.
"Usopp the last time I met Yasopp he ask me to take you with me, so do you want to join my crew?" Luffy as him, Usopp start to thinking about it a few minutes and then he nod his head. "I want to say good bye to someone first but then we can leave if you like" Usopp say to Luffy and he nod his head.
Usopp with Luffy, Amaya and Robin leave the bar and starting walking, after fifteen minutes they reach a big mansion but the gates was closed so they climb the wall.
Usopp climb a tree and start talking with a fairly tall, slim, and pale girl with blonde hair and wide brown eyes.
"Hey guys this is Kaya." Usopp say to the three of them, "Hello miss Kaya my name is Luffy, this is my daughter Amaya and this is Robin it's nice to meet you" the young captain introduce himself and the other two. "Like wise, what a beautiful daughter you have" Kaya say to him and smile and Luffy nod his head.
"Robin can you take Amaya for a while" Luffy said (and to say that Amaya didn't like this a bit was understatement), Robin nod her head and give him an eyebrow and the rest of them look at him.
One minute later a slim man with glasses and slicked black hair and a black suit with two golden markings on it over a white shirt with a curious collar, with spiral-like protrusions on the edges and a black tie start to approach, Luffy start walk towards him and before this man can speak the young captain was beside him.
"Your captain Kuro of the hundred plans, am I right?" Luffy whisper to Kuro's ear and Kuro nod his head. "Who are you and how do you know me?" Kuro ask him.
"Well I'm Monkey. D. Luffy. As to how I know you is your fault. You mustn't leave your ship so close at the island and most important at the open for everyone to see it" he say to him and Kuro's eyes widen.
"So how can we solve this between us? Kuro ask Luffy and he smile.
"It's simple we fight. If you win you can do anything you want and even take my ship and my crew. But if you lose… you and your crew will join my crew and you will not hurt anyone here." He say to Kuro and smile.
Kuro thinking about the deal and nod his head.
"What are the rules and when we fight? Kuro ask Luffy. "It's simple you can attack me with whatever you want but your crew will not interfere at our fight and neither mine crew, also the place of the fight will be at the north beach of the island and the as for the fight you can decide when we start"
Kuro accept the rules and he said that they fight today at the noon, Luffy nod his head and walk back to the others.
No one asked Luffy what is all that about and after a few minutes they leave the mansion to search for the others. Robin said to them that they probably be at the bar so they walk at the bar and indeed they find them there.
"Luff how do you know that man?" Robin ask him looking at him with Amaya and Sop.
"You remember a ship that we see as we coming here?" Luff ask her with a smirk "E.! I remember" she say "I'm glad. So that ship is belong to the man I spoke he is known as Captain Kura of the hundred plans" he say and Usopp start to panic.
"I thought that he was dead" he start to yell earning a glare from Robin.
"Well for a dead man I see him just fine, anyway I got it covered" he say to them without want to give any more explanation to them and he take his daughter and leave the bar.
He walk toward his ship with Amaya at his shoulder and with his crew and Usopp to follow him without a sound, they all aboard the ship as Usopp jaw hit the ground at the view of the ship and Luffy sit at his throne to play with his daughter.
Robin see him and she approach them. "Will you tell me now that we are alone?" she ask him looking him with concern eyes. He sigh and look at her.
"It's simple I make a deal with him Id he win he can do whatever he wants to the village and to us if I win he and his crew will join us." He say to her and she smile at him. "You know for something like that is that I love you" Robin tell him and kiss him.
"I want to stay here with Amaya" Luffy say to her with a serious voice. "And if you want call to Marco and tell him to wait us at Crocus place" he said as he stand up and walk to his room.
After some hours Luffy exited his room with his bisento at his hand and landed of the ship to meet Kuro. No one dare to ask where is going and why he's holding his bisento not even Amaya as they all see the serious look at his eyes, a look that all of them knew very well.
After twenty minutes Luffy was at the north beach and so as Kuro.
"So can we start?" Kuro ask (as he put his gloves with full-length katana blades at the end of each finger.)
"Sure wherever you're ready.!" Luffy say with a smile and tightened the grip at his bisento.
Kuro smirk and mumble "Creeping Cat"and with that he move with a bling speed ready to strike Luffy but Luffy just smile murmured too slow, he use Soru to appear in front of him and block the upcoming attack with his bisento.
"I will give you one more chance to attack me Kuro id you don't succeed then I end our little game." He say to him.
Kuro start to attack again and murmured "Nuki Ashi" and with that he start to initiates this move by performing several quick foot movements to propel himself to another location and slash everything at his path.
Luffy see that Kuro actually couldn't see what he's hitting so he wait a little and then he step aside for his knife trajectory and hit Kuro with the base of his bisento at the gut and then again at his neck knock him out.
Now I'm boring again say to himself, he takes Kuro and walk back to his ship where the other are waiting him.
As he reach his ship Amaya run to him to see if her father was injured he smile, take her in his arms and put her in his shoulder. After a while Kuro wake up look around.
"So it seems that I lost captain" Kuro say to Luffy and he nod his head. "Well then give me a little time to get my things and we will meet here, is that ok with you captain? Kuro ask "I'm okay with that and the name is Luffy." The young captain say to him. "I will inform Jango to come here with the ship ready to leave when you want" Kuro said to Luffy as he leave for the mansion. "Okay." Luffy just said.
After a while Usopp and Kaya approach the crew and Kaya was amazed by the view of the ship.
"It's time for me to leave Kaya and to be a brave warrior of the sea and also to make finally my old man proud" Usopp say to Kaya "But we will see each other again someday" he continues and Kaya smile to him.
Kaya approach slowly Luffy who is with his daughter and look at him.
"Ehm capt…" "It's Luffy" the young captain intercept her and the three of them smile. Usopp come to their place too. She sigh.
"Okay. Luffy then can I come with you?" Kaya ask him, Luffy look at her then he look at Usopp who nod to say no and then back at his daughter who has a big smile at her face and nod positively.
"Sure why not, I'm not the one who separates couples. But just for asking what can you add to my crew?" he ask her and both Usopp and Kaya blushing at the word couple, "We are not together" Usopp say to him. "Yes and then you wake up, it's obvious Usopp that both of you have feelings for each other… but I'm not in the mood now to play marriage counselor" he say and Usopp jaw hit the floor once more again, Kaya blush even more now and the Amaya, Robin and Makino to laugh.
"I study to be a doctor, but if you want I can learn who to fight" Kaya say to Luffy. "Then you will fit perfectly to my crew, I have a doctor here who can help you with your studies and also if you want me and Robin can help you also. As for the fight It's not that I want to fight with us but I want to be safe so we will teach you the basics so you can protect yourself if someone of us is not around to protect you" Luffy say to Kaya and smile.
As they talk Kuro's ship finally reach the shore and Kaya with Usopp look each other.
Usopp with Kaya left to take Kaya's things and after while Kuro return back with his things and walk towards Luffy.
"I'm ready Luffy" he say to young captain.
"Good now after Kaya and Usopp return we're leaving for Baratie to meet an old friend and to take a Master Chef and after that I want to find a navigator. Luffy say to Kuro and smile.
"You knows I have heard for someone, her name is Nami and she lives at Conomi islands and specifically at Cocoyashi village. Maybe you can hire her" Kuro say to Luffy as Usopp and Kaya approach them.
Yosh lets gooooo Luffy said earning an AYE captain from his crew. And with that they aboard the ships and leave from Syrup village for Baratie Restaurant.
