HGG: ok last chapter. Basically it's the next morning in this chapter.
Iceberg: I have important stuff to do so can you please get on with it
HGG: as soon as you do the disclaimers
Iceberg: HGG doesn't own one piece and never will!
HGG: *in emo corner twirling her fingers* you didn't have to say it like that….
"That was so good!" I shout with thirty seven empty plates in front of me.
"Luffy, show some manners!" I shrug on Zoro's lap. Ever since yesterday Zoro has been a little protective…. Along with Ace. Speaking of, he is squished beside Zoro trying to stay close to me. I sigh dramatically. Patience throws a chicken bone at my head. I look at her.
"You will have to leave today, the navy is coming to question us on what happened since we apparently also housed a well-known criminal." I shrug.
"That works. I wanna get home." She smiles broadly.
"We had that mini ship repaired for you and packed with plenty of provisions." I smile at that. After breakfast everyone starts to say good bye but I stop them.
"This isn't good bye. I'll see you all again someday." The maids cry dramatically. Patience and Ann walk up and give all of us a kiss on the cheek. Sanji gets a nose bleed.
"Then see you later!" they both smile ignoring the bloody mess that is Sanji. Ramses comes over.
"I apologize for my idiocy."
"Doesn't matter it was fun and you're a cool guy."
"You are welcome back to our kingdom anytime." I laugh.
"See you later gramps!" we all wave and hop into the mini Merry. Ace had left a little earlier and I'm kind of sad I didn't get to see him off. When the island starts to disappear I hear a dull roar.
"Ace!" he drives over and stops beside our boat.
"I wanted to say see ya before I left." I hug him.
"See you later Ace. Are you sure you don't want to come see everyone else?" he shakes his head.
"I need to figure out where Black Beard is. His trail has run cold." I nod and wave at him as he goes. I go to the front of the boat when he's gone.
"Onward to the Going Merry!" we sail for a long time and besides beating up a few Sea Kings it was uneventful.
"Look look everyone we are home." Zoro jerks awake and Sanji stears toward the Going Merry. She is surrounded by rocks to hide her from other ships. When we finally arrive I jump up on board knocking right into Ussopp. "Ussopp I missed you." I give him a huge hug then run after Chopper who jumps into my arms crying.
"You dumb ass we were so worried!" I laugh at the reindeer's sobs. Nami comes over and hugs me gently.
"Don't you ever scare us like that again ok Luffy." I give her my signature smile.
"Don't worry Nami I was never really in danger. I knew I would be found sooner or later." She sighs looking a bit tired. I notice she has a few wounds. Actually everyone looks like they have been recovering from a fight. "Hey guys what happened while I was gone?" they all give each other a knowing glance. Robin speaks up.
"Perhaps taking this inside with a big dinner would be better." I charge for the kitchen excited for a story most likely told by Ussopp.
A/N: So I guess this is more like a short epilogue and a sorta cliff hanger for the sequel. What happened to the crew while the three strongest fighters were gone?! You wont know for awile cause even I only know a basic outline. Please review and tell me about your experience with my first chapter story. I love you all and thank you for staying with me for so long!
