A/N: HEY! Because I'm bored as hell (school assignments are really killing me), so I was thinking about making a bonus chapter with 'Luffy Oyabun' story plot, though it won't in the same plot at that bonus episode, so it will be the whole different story. But maybe there will be a small glimpse of the plot. I finished this from months ago, so I decided to submit it now, after few mistakes here and there, and correcting them so it would went well.
And this story got no connection with the main plot whatsoever, so Eri-chan is here like she's one of the OP characters. Oh, and I decided to insert a special character of my reader and good friend, OPFan37! His name is Ellix, and in this bonus chappie, his role is as a good friend of Strawhats, Vivi and Eri-chan, and Nami's boyfriend that gone a few months back.
And Eri-chan's rival, Hirox-kun, too!
Here you go OP-kun! A bonus story from me to you! And other readers too, of course!
And you guys also should read his story too! It's pretty great! XD
OKAY! ONTO THE STORYY~~ XD
XXX
Grand Jipangu…
That's right; the infamous 'Luffy Oyabun' tales are finally back!
But oh! We got new faces here! Let's see their daily actions, shall we?
And maybe a little more adventures too?

"Are you sure this is the right way, Eri-chan?" asked a teen boy to the young girl he call 'Eri-chan'.
"Nope." The young girl replied bluntly as she kept walking, her partner on her side.
"Ojou-sama is the person who believes in 'Actions speak louder' and 'Be honest' methods, so asking her that wouldn't be worth it, Ellix-dono." Eri's partner, Takao, the blue feathered Hawk, who was in his griffin mode, told the teen boy named Ellix. The teen boy, Ellix, was only sweat-dropped and face-palmed at the girl's actions.
"Oh come on Elli-kun! I'm sure Nami will be happy to see you when we go to The Pinwheel." Erica said, kept walking before her attention was turned by great smell of food.
"FOOOODD!" she exclaimed before running toward one of the food stalls, shocking Ellix. She stopped in front of takoyaki food stall and met a familiar face of the owner.
"Hachi! It's been awhile!" she greeted the owner, who was an octopus fishman.
"Oh Eri! It's been awhile-nyuu!" Hachi replied, Erica grinned at him.
"Chotto Eri-chan! Don't go off so suddenly like that!" Ellix exclaimed as he ran toward Erica and the food stall, Takao following him from behind.
"Sorry." She replied.
"Nyuu! It's Rokush—I mean Ellix! It's been awhile-nyuu!" Hachi greeted Ellix too with his own made nickname, surprisingly he still making takoyaki without any one of the takoyakis burned.
"Oh Hachi, good day." Ellix replied, smiling at him.
"Nyuu, where have you been in these past few months? Nami is worried about you, you know." Hachi started a conversation as he gives Erica the takoyaki, which she quickly took it and ate them happily.
"Well, I was searching for my family, but I still haven't found them," Ellix replied, "And then Eri-chan suddenly came and telling me that Nami was worried about my sudden disappearance, so I decided to go back here." He added as he points to Erica.
"Nami was ramblings about your disappearances every second I'm at The Pinwheel, so I search for you so she could shut up about it for maybe a few months." Erica replied in ease.
"Just say that you're actually worried about her." Ellix was sweat-dropped as he said that.
"I-I wasn't!" she quickly replied, her cheeks a little flushed.
"Nyuu, anyway, I think you better go to Nami's, Ellix, Erica." Hachi said as he gives another takoyaki to the girl.
"Yeah, we should, but Eri-chan forgot the way there, so we got lost." Ellix explained.
"Shut up, my memory is not that great, so it's natural." The girl retorted as she stomped at his foot, making him screeched and jumping around, holding his foot up. The girl keep eating until she finished, she thanked Hachi and walked away again with Takao by her side, Ellix quickly realized that he's being left and chased the girl.

We kept walking to nowhere and sometimes I greet the people I know on the way. Oh yeah, I never tell you about my appearances right?
Well, I was wearing Gothic Lolita kimono, which a gift from Ace's friend a year ago when he came to a visit. My kimono is black colored with red kitsunebi patterns on the end of the sleeves of the yukata, white obi that tied into bow that tied around my waist, black leggings, and getas. My hair was shoulder length, slightly wild, blame on my custom cutting hair, and slightly curly at the end, blame on my custom hair tying.
My bangs were left parted bangs and it's almost covering my right eye, while the other was fall freely on my left side of face (A/N: Almost like Nami's left side hair that never tied along if she tied it.). I slipped my bo staff into my obi, even though I prefer using my fists to attack people, you won't know if your enemies are devil fruit users and could easily slipped through my attacks.
Oh, and I almost forgot about Elli-kun. He was wearing navy blue yukata with sphere patterns in white color, black obi tied around his waist, black leggings, and straw zoris. His hair was neatly dark brown hair, though there a little ponytail on top of his head (A/N: like Luffy's ponytail.), his eye colors are light blue and he has tall height, maybe almost the same as Ace's height except he's somewhat skinny for his age, which only a year older than me. Man, I missed Ace…
He is one of many people of my good friends. He's apparently Nami's boyfriend that disappeared few months ago, with a reason of searching his family or whatever. I met him when Luffy introduced him to me a year ago at Christmas Eve at Nami's cafeteria, and that time both Elli-kun and Nami were already couples. We got along well, surprisingly.
Maybe it's because of our dark sides, apparently.
ANYWAY, after walking around for decades, we finally arrived right in front of the cafeteria, The Pinwheel.
"Okay, we're finally here, come on in!" I exclaimed and dragged Elli-kun along with me, which a little hesitated, maybe he's nervous.
"OOOOIII! ANYBODY HERE!?" I yelled as I walked in cheerfully, causing the owner, AKA Nami, throwing the tray she usually use, at me. Me, being awesome as usual, squatted down quickly, missing the tray. Unfortunately, Elli-kun didn't lucky this time and the tray hit his face hard, making him fell on his back.
"Oi Nami! Don't be a jerk to the person who was searching everywhere to find your boyfriend!" I exclaimed; a little pity for Elli-kun and stood up, hand on my hip.
"Would you just shut up for a sec?!" Nami snapped at me, I just stuck out my tongue at her.
"And now you made him unconscious because of your own fault." I added and walked to the side, revealing passed out Elli-kun.
"ELLIX!"
As Nami ran to Elli-kun and tried to wake him up, I sat down to the stool right in front of the counter, watching the scene. Sanji-san walked out from the kitchen and greeted me.
"Oh Eri-chan, it's been awhile. Where've you been?" he asked me.
"Long story short, searching for that Dummy Dreamer, found him in New World Street, and bring him back here so Nami could shut her ramblings about him." I answered, drinking my cold green tea that Sanji-san gave to me.
"Yeah, Nami-san kept talking about him, that Shitty Dreamer, making Nami-san all worried like that." Sanji-san replied as he stared at Elli-kun and Nami right in front of the entrance to the diner.
"Anyway, any big news when I'm gone?" I started a conversation, "Well, that damned clown named Buggy was making terrors here, but Oyabun* already took care of him." Sanji-san replied, puffing his smoke pipe. I just hummed and grinned.
"Guess Luffy was alright when I'm gone, then." I exclaimed.
"No, he always ramblings about your disappearances here, and at the same time, his debt was increasing too." he added, I just grinned nervously.
"Welp, that's Luffy for sure." I finished before drank all the content in the mug and stood up, walked toward the outside. Too bad both Nami and Elli-kun are blocking the way right now.
In the end, I bitchslapped Elli-kun and he immediately woke up with swollen cheeks. Too bad Nami didn't appreciate my hard work of finding and waking him up, so she gifted me a bonked in the head.
"That hurt, you ungrateful witch!" I snapped as I rubbed my swollen head.
"If you didn't slap him like that, I would thank you for finding him!" she retorted back, "Too bad this is not your lucky day so you better pay Oyabun's debts right now!" she continued.
"Whoops, I just remember I got something to do!" I ignored her and ran outside, "Sorry but put it on his debt, not mine!" I exclaimed loudly as I ran away from the cafeteria together with Takao that flew along with me, laughing along the way as I heard Nami yelling at me.
As we walking down the street, I met Oyasan* (*Pandaman) and greeted him. We kept walking and turned into an alleyway full of houses. We finally stopped right in front of one house, where my brothers, partners and I live. Ever since Sabo gone without trace nine years ago and Ace gone to join a yakuza group named Whitebeard three years ago, I live together with Luffy and our pets for three years now, the same time as Ace joined Whitebeard.
I wonder how Luffy would react when I'm home, I just shrugged and opened the door after I opened the lock. I walked in and put the zoris neatly; I yawned as I suddenly felt sleepy and sat down near the door. I lied down, hoping that it would wore off but I eventually fell asleep there.
In the end, I woke up with sudden weight attacked me, almost crushing me. I coughed out and sat up, revealing a D-size grin of my rubbery brain of a brother that attacked me.
"ERI! I missed you!" he exclaimed as he hugged me again with his bone crushing hug.
"Yes, yes, now would you please let me go? It's getting hard to breath here." I replied. He eventually didn't let go, but only loosening his hug a bit.
"Where have you been?" he asked, pouting.
"Searching for that Dummy Dreamer." I replied casually.
"Eh? You mean Ellix?" he asked, "So that's why he's at The Pinwheel just then."
I deadpanned, "You're increasing your debt again, didn't you?"
He averted his gaze away from me, "I-I dunno what you are ta-talking about…!" he replied, I just sighed and shook my head.
"Come on, let's go to bed. I'm tired and my neck felt stiff for sleeping here." I exclaimed and stood up, stretching myself before walking down the hall toward our bedroom, Luffy, Flame and Takao following me from behind.
XXX
The next morning, I was cleaning the house like usual, while Luffy, Flame and Takao were patrolling. It was such a nice day…
Drap drap drap… BRAK! "ERI-SAAAANN!"
Until a certain person break it.
"Coming Hiro-kun…" I replied as I wiped my hands with a cloth and walked toward the door, revealing a certain teen boy with black and white hakama, black long sleeves undershirt (A/N: like Sanjis's undershirt), white tabi and getas, his double blade scythe tied on his back. He has short black hair with gray specks bangs and small ponytail, dark green eye colors and baby face. He has the same height as Luffy, I guess.
"Let's battle!" he exclaimed.
"Sorry, I got work to do at the shrine this afternoon. And you also got work to do at the shrine right?" I replied.
"Eeehh, but you just got back from searching The Pinwheel's owner's boyfriend right? Come on, let's battle!" he whined.
"That's the point, shitty illusionist!" I snapped; an angry mark at the back of my head. He kept whining about it so I decided to ignore him and went into Luffy's and my room to change.
I was working as a Miko at the Grand Shrine of Grand Jipangu, while Hiro-kun, or Konari V. Hirox for his full name, is a Geki*(*Male Miko) there. I worked there far longer than him so he's my kohai; I worked there for almost five years, while he just became a Geki two years ago. We become rivals when he suddenly got urges to battle me and he lost.
I was wearing the usual Miko attire, a white and red hakama and white tabi. I tied my hair into untidy bun style, hence the curly in my lower hair, using white ribbon. I slipped my bo staff into the pocket (A/N: I guess hakamas have pockets, right?).
I walked out from my room and toward the door. Hiro-kun was still standing at the rear of the door, and grinning at me when he spotted me.
"You still here?" I asked, totally not surprised about it and wearing my getas.
"Yep!" he answered, still grinning.
I just sighed at his simplicity and stood up, "Come on, we better hurry to the shrine and pray." I told him and walked out, waiting for him to walk out from my house to lock it. We walked together toward the shrine, but I decided to go to The Pinwheel first to take my lunches.
"Yoo~" I greeted the employers as I walked in with Hiro-kun, which was only Nami, Sanji-san and Elli-kun.
"What do you want?" Nami snapped, frowning as she spotted me.
"Taking my lunch, of course." I replied simply as I sat down at one of the seats there, with Hiro-kun also. "And I want my breakfast too." I added.
"Me too!" Hiro-kun exclaimed as he hold up his hand and grinning at Nami. She just sighed and shook her head, before turning to Sanji-san to make meals for us.
"I swear, even though you guys are servants of Kami, you guys are like criminals," She commented before turning to me, "Especially you." She finished with half-lidded eyes.
"Hey, it can't be helped right? We're humans, sometimes we do something that normal people do too." I replied and grinned at her. After the meals came, we quickly dig in and eventually finished a few minutes later, at the same time as my lunch boxes came.
"Oh come on Nami! Make this lunch boxes free this time!" I protested as Nami said I should pay it now.
"Daame! Just because you found Ellix, doesn't mean I would give you free meals!" she replied.
"Meh, whatever! Bye Nami, thanks for the meals!" I quickly ran away with box lunches in my hands, ignoring Nami's yelling and Hiro-kun's laughter.
What a great day, like usual…
XXX
As our heroine and her rival ran toward the shrine of Grand Jipangu, unbeknownst to them, a figure was watching the girl from the shadows. The figure wore blue kimono with navy blue undershirt; a distinctively dark top hat with blue goggles on his head, hiding the attractive golden wavy locks from publics and his handsome face with scar on his left eye; and a pair of getas.
Near the figure's feet, a tiger cub with black-white fur and blood red eyes was sitting next to her master obediently, waiting for her master to move again.
The figure smiled softly before turning around, walking toward the alleyway and gone into the shadows, together with his partner, that was following him happily.
XXX
"This is soooo BORING!" Hiro-kun whined as he sweeping around the shrine.
"Shut up and do your work, would you?" I replied as I kept sweeping, "And why didn't you sweep the shrine while I was gone?!" I snapped at him and threw a stone at him, which landed hard on his head.
"Datte, it's not fun without you! So I just came here to pray and then went home." He replied as he rubbed his swollen head, I death-glared him as chilly aura came out from me, making the place suddenly went cold.
"Eeeekk! G-gomenasai!" he quickly apologized, using the broom as a shield.
I just huffed and looked up, watching at the clear blue sky with fluffy white specks called clouds…
Great, I'm being poetic right now?
"Anyway, let's take a break for awhile." I told him and leaned the broom on a tree near there and walked toward the shrine building, I sat down and took the box lunches I got this morning. Hiro-kun grinned and sat down next to me after he put the broom next to mine. We ate happily and sometimes talking about things that happened when I was gone, which mostly Buggy's doings.
After we finished cleaning the shrine, we walked down from the shrine to the town. We parted ways; he went back to Orange Town Street while I need to put the boxes back to The Pinwheel. As I walked in, I saw Luffy, Aohana-sensei* (*Chopper/Blue-nosed doctor), Usopp, Flame and Takao were relaxing there.
"Yo minna." I greeted them as I walked toward Sanji-san, giving the boxes.
"Oh Eri, you already back?" Usopp asked, slightly surprised.
"Yep, just arrived yesterday." I replied and sat down on one of the stools, next to Oyasan. Sanji-san put a cold ocha in front of me and I bid him a thanks before drank it.
"Where are Elli-kun and Nami?" I asked as I realized that those couples were not here.
"Delivering an order." Sanji-san replied and breathed out smokes, away from me of course, I couldn't stand smokes, especially tobaccos' smokes. I just hummed before drank my cold ocha again and rummaging through my upper hakama, taking out a book.
Eventually, Sanji-san saw a little bit of my breast and having a nosebleed right now. I kicked his head and threw the mug that still filled with cold ocha just then at him. He landed hard on the ground with heart-shaped his visible eye, I stomped on his head and grinded it, scary expression of my face.
The Three Idiots (Luffy, Chopper, Usopp) were shuddering on their seat, Oyasan just sipped his sake like usual, as if nothing happened, while both Takao and Flame just sweat-dropped at the scene.
"Ero-Cook." I grumbled as I opened the book, reading it.
After a few moments passed, Luffy piped in, "Oi Sanji! Food!"
I ignored it as Sanji-san stood up again, brushing off the dusts from his attire before snapped at Luffy.
I kept my attention to the book until a meal was put next to me. I turned and saw Sanji-san grinned apologetically as he put the meal next to me. I just stared at him before turning at the meal, putting my book and start eating the meal slowly.
After a few minutes, Elli-kun and Nami finally came back, greeting at us. I was just staring at them as they started talking at each other lovingly.
Lovebirds…
But I dunno why but slowly those two changed into Ace and me, which making me blushed and shook my head rapidly. What is wrong with me, damn it! Suddenly thinking about him like that! My heart was beating like crazy and my cheeks were flushed; unbeknownst to me, everyone except Oyasan was staring at me until I felt eyes to me.
"Wh-what is it?" I asked them.
"You're blushing." Luffy pointed out and grinned at me, making my face getting redder.
"S-shut up!" I snapped at him and stomped outside after I grabbed my book; I walked toward my house with heavy and fast steps.
"Aa-ah, her tsundere side came out again, shishishishi!" Luffy laughed, making his nakamas turned their heads toward him and looking at him with disbelief looks.
'Luffy knew 'Tsundere' word?!' all of them screamed in disbelief in their mind.
XXX
Our heroine, in her flushing state, was stomping along the way toward her house. She walks into her house and locked it before jumped into her futon. She hides her flushing face with the cover, slowly thinking what is wrong with her. But then she felt a presence coming so she stood up and walked out the room.
She opened the door and looking around before look downward, founding an envelope near her feet. She squatted down to take the envelope and looked around again before walks into her house again. Unbeknownst to her, a figure was watching her from the shadows with his feline partner.
The figure wore orange kimono with red flames pattern at the rims, a happi coat with a smiling skull with crescent moustache at the back, and a pair of getas. The figure has attractive freckles spread across his cheeks, unkempt wavy raven locks and handsome face.
He smiled when he saw the girl, even though it's only a moment. He put his cowboy hat that made by the girl long time ago on his head before walks away from there, the black furred feline with big dark brown eyes following him in enthusiasm.

To : My baby little sister.
From : Your big brother.
Dear Eri,
Great day Eri! How are you? I hope you and Luffy and the others are healthy like usual. Me and Ro are fine, healthy as ever. Everyone in here is also healthy, well almost everyone.
You remember the man named Teach? Well, he's apparently a traitor. He stabbed Thatch just for a DF and ran away. Thankfully, Thatch was saved and become as happy and prankster like usual. Right now, I was traveling around to search that man, so I think I can't come home again this year. Sorry.
Maybe Marco, Thatch, or Izo could go and visit you guys, later. I already told them about it, so I hope they could visit you guys. Ya' know, paying Luffy's debts at The Pinwheel. And I think you never met Marco, right? As he always busy with his business, so I guess this will be a perfect opportunity for you guys meet up! :D
Sorry again, that I can't go home this year again. And I already promised you guys to come home this year; again, I betrayed my own promise. I'm so sorry. I'll try to come this Christmas Eve, okay? :)
From your big brother,
Ace.

"…Ace you baka…"

"So… Ace won't come home again this year?" Luffy asked as he finished listening to me when I read the letter.
"He said he'll try, though." I replied shortly as I lied down on my futon and pulled the cover to my head. Luffy didn't say anything again in return, but he still staring at my covered figure before decided to sleep.
"Let's just hope he don't break it again like last year." I added before fell asleep.

"Hey Eri-chan, it's unusual of you for being really quiet. Did something happen?" Elli-kun asked as he put my usual drinks at The Pinwheel.
"Not really." I replied and taking the mug to my mouth, drank it slowly. "Say, you got any sugar?" I asked him.
"Well yeah, like usual. What's wrong?" he asked as he walked into the kitchen to take a jar of sugar.
"I need my sugar stocks." I replied shortly before taking the jar from his hand and pour the sugar right into my drink.
"…isn't that a little too much?" Nami asked; a little worried, "Aohana-sensei will get mad again because of your diabetic." She continued.
"Nah, I'll be fine." I stirred it before drank it in one gulp. After I finished, I stood up and walked out the cafeteria, muttering thanks for the drink and walked away.
XXX
"I think I know what happened." Nami commented as she, Ellix and Sanji watched our heroine from distance, taking the boys' attention, "Every time she drank with too much sugar, there must be only one that happened."
"I think it's about Ace." she continued before turning to the boys, "You guys remember about two and last year ago?" she asked, receiving nods from both boys.
"Well, I'm sure Ace can't come here again this year." She continued, "You guys know how big her feelings toward Ace right? Even though she didn't realize it yet, those feelings of her are definitely 'Love'."
"Eri-chan could fell in love?!" Ellix exclaimed in disbelief, "I mean, she even thinks that boys are perverts and annoying! Except her male friends like Usopp, Monk-san (Zoro), me, and Hirox." He continued, completely not in purpose by forgetting Sanji's name.
"Of course she could, baka." Nami hit her boyfriend's head softly, "She may be hate boys, but she still a girl that needs protection from boys, and Ace is one of the boys that always protect her from ten year ago, besides Luffy of course." she continued and sighed heavily.
"Well, Eri-chan sure does hate boys, considering her bad past has connection with them." Sanji exclaimed and breathed out the smokes. "Got bullied by little boys because she has weird ability," he paused a moment before continued, "Shitty kids, how dare they treated a girl like Eri-chan just because she's like that."
Ellix, who was actually not really familiar with the ramblings of the chef and his girlfriend, was decided to ask them about it.
"She's actually has big secret…" Nami started.
"…that is actually a REALLY BIG secret." Sanji finished.
XXX
I was about to go to the shrine and walking peacefully until a certain bad weather decided to stop my journey to wherever my feet take me. I ran as I search a place for me to shelter until the rain was stop. I took shelter under a tree and stood there, soaked from head to toe. I grumbled as I squeezed the water out from my kimono's sleeves and my hair until I felt a presence of someone next to me.
I turned and saw a man with stubbles around his chin, half-lidded clear blue eyes, and blond hair with weird hairstyle. He wore cyan kimono with bright orange obi, a happi and a pair of getas. His kimono's collar was unorganized and loose, showing his board chest with dark purple cross with weird crescent tattoos.
What a weird hairstyle…
