*texting on my phone, turns around and looks at you* Oh hi there! I didn't see you there! Welcome back! I've been waiting you guys! Please review if you guys have any problems with this story. Also, a few people asked why Luffy didn't meet Ace and Sabo. Well, they DID meet. Just not on Dawn Island. And yes, Ace is on Whitebeard's crew.

Also, Luffy's bounty name WILL change from 'Island Destroyer Luffy' to 'Straw hat Luffy'. I hope that answers your questions. Anyways, let's start the story.

"I want to go kick a Yonko's ass!" - Speech

'After One Piece, I'll go find the Second Piece!' – Thinking

"Gomu Gomu no Rhino Schneider!" – Attacks

Disclaimer: I don't own One Piece. If I did, I would've sent Luffy back in time.

Chapter 7

"Oi! Sanji! I brought Zoro back!" Luffy yelled, as he and Zoro walked towards Sanji and Pudding.

Zoro noticed Pudding, and raised an eyebrow. Luffy saw this, and simply said "Shishishishi! Sanji got married." That was enough to send Zoro's jaw flying towards the ground. Sanji sighed. "I was trained by Big Mom. In exchange, I had to marry Pudding-chan. I don't regret it. Also… I'm as strong as Katakuri now." Luffy had stars in his eyes, while Zoro was smirking. 'It seems the cook isn't useless after all.' Was what Zoro thought.

Luffy, now wanting to reveal his training, started to hop up and down, while saying: "COOOL! I got trained by Shanks! I had SOOO much fun! I learnt a lot of stuff, and now, I'm almost as strong as Shanks!" Zoro and Sanji both had identical shit eating grins. Their captain could match a Yonko now. That'll set their bounty up to AT LEAST 500 million beri. It would be a good challenge to fight a Yonko at the moment.

"I was trained by Whitebeard. I improved in my sword styles. Just earlier today, I defeated Marco, their first division commander." At this, Luffy's eyes widened. Marco was one of the strongest people he had known in the previous time-line. Being told by Zoro that he defeated Marco was shocking. Sanji smiled. 'It looks like the swordsman isn't so weak after all.'

Pudding, who was listening to this, was shocked. These three were MONSTERS. How strong can these guys be when they fight together? "By the way, where's that pink hair kid?" She asked, remembering about Coby.

"Oh, Coby? He's joined the marine. He wanted to be one, so I helped him become one." Luffy said with a grin.

The Dock, A few minutes later

"Uhhh… does nobody have a boat?" Zoro asked. This made Luffy look at him as if he were crazy. "My dear first mate, why would we need a boat, when we have two jumpers?" Luffy asked, looking at him with a confused face. Zoro looked at him with horror stitched onto his face. "You don't mean…"

Before he knew it, he was on Luffy's back. And Luffy was on the water, using his Soru and Geppo to travel at high speeds. Meanwhile, Sanji held Pudding bridal style, using his speed and Skywalk to keep up with Luffy.

"Yo captain! Where are we going next?"Sanji asked, not knowing. "Shishishishi! We're going to get our Navigator!" 'And the woman I love.' I said, thinking at the end. Sanji and Zoro knew about their captain's crush, since they were the ones that explained the concept of love to their captain.

Mini Flashback

The idiotic captain was walking towards Nami, and was about to say something stupid, like "Hey Nami! I want to hug and I don't know why!" That would've earned him a punch from Nami for sure. Luckily, the two used their Kenbunshoku and quickly pulled their captain to the side, and listened to his problems. They had to tell their captain to be quiet about it. They also, as embarrassing as it sounds, had to give their goddamn captain 'The Talk'. If they didn't their captain would've gotten himself killed. It took them hours before their idiot captain could understand. In the end, he shivered, looking at Nami with a strange look in his eyes.

A few hours had past, and they were almost at Orange Town.

On their way, they had seen 3 idiots floating in the ocean, yelling for help. Shaking their head, they passed those idiots.

A few minutes later, they arrived at the dock of the town. They saw the condition of the town. It looked like as if it had been blown by cannons. Meanwhile, Luffy was looking around, looking for Nami's aura. All of a sudden, his Kenbunshoku showed him an image of Nami being blown apart by Buggy's cannon.

All of a sudden, everyone heard someone yell "Fire the Buggy Cannon!" Luffy growled. Nobody would harm Nami. NOBODY! On instinct, he used his Soru to dash, appear in front of Nami, who was on the ground, and catch the cannon ball with one hand, shocking her. All of this happened within a second. He tossed the cannon ball up and down, as if to decide what to do with it. Then, before anyone could react, he whispered "Busoshoku Koka", surrounding the ball with his Haki, and threw the cannon ball back at Buggy and his crew.

Buggy was shocked. He had intended to get rid of that thief that tried to steal HIS map once and for all. Then this man just comes in, CATCHES the cannon ball, and THROWS it back! He had confidence in his Bara Bara no Mi, and that it would protect him. He never saw the Busoshoku coating, until the last second. It was too late. It blew up. He was drifting off into unconsciousness. The last thing he saw before he fell was the face of the man. It looked strangely like his former captain's face.

Everyone was shocked by how fast Luffy took care of the situation. Everybody, except for Sanji and Zoro. They both smirked, glad to see some of their captain's moves already.

Nami was shocked. This man had saved her life, AND defeated Buggy and his crew. She didn't even have time to register what happened, before it happened.

Luffy helped Nami up, and gave her a soft smile. She smiled back. "Hey… so… ummm… do you, by chance, join my crew?" Luffy asked with a faint blush. In any other universe, Nami would've screamed "NO!", saying that she hated pirates. But this is another universe.

"I'll only join IF you let me handle all the beri." It was close enough to a yes. She was sure that he would say no. Savior or not, nobody would give their go-

"Sure." Was all that Luffy said, that caused Nami's brain to crash. Did he just say "Sure"? But why? Why does he trust her that much? All she had done is steal from pirates. And now, a pirate had saved her life.

"I s-s-suppose I don't mind being your navigator." Nami said, waving her hair back, like a typical tsundere. Everyone, save Luffy, silently snickered, amused by the show the two were putting on.

"Shishishishi! Welcome to the crew Nami! You are our navigator!" Luffy exclaimed, happy to have Nami back again. Then he remembered something. "Hey Nami, do you want to go get that treasure you were looking for earlier?" Luffy asked, knowing the answer. "Nami's eyes turned into beri signs. Before anyone knew it, Nami had rushed off at a speed even Sanji couldn't follow. In a few seconds, she was back, with two bags, full of gold, and the map to the Grand Line – not that they needed it.

"Nami, do you have a boat?" Luffy asked slowly, wishing for her to have one. Nami, of course, looked at him as if he were crazy. "Of course I do. How else are you supposed to get here?" Then it dawned upon her. "Wait… do you guys… not have a boat?" She slowly asked, receiving only "No" as her answer. She got a tick mark. "Why would you idiots swim here?! Do you know how far it is from Shells Town, to get here?!" She scolded them, not having any effect though.

"Who said that we swam here?" Pudding asked with an innocent expression, making Nami almost tear her hair off. "Then how in the world DID you guys get here?" She screamed. "We flew here of course… Well technically these two idiots that flew." This time it was Zoro who answered. Nami started to think they were crazy. She ended up eating up her words when she saw Luffy use Geppo and Sanji use Skywalk to hop into the sky. Nami was on the verge of fainting.

'What kind of monsters did I join?' Nami thought, as she fainted. Luffy saw she was falling, and ended up using Soru to catch her before she fell to the ground. He remembered about Buggy. The last time, he had sent Buggy flying with a Gomu Gomu no Bazuka. Then he came back, and caused more trouble for him. He wouldn't repeat the mistake this time. He told the group that he would be right back. He walked up to Buggy, and stuffed him into a bag. Where he got the bag? Nobody knows. He then called the marine base and told them to collect Buggy. Knowing that Buggy's crew might open him up, he let out a blast of his Haoshoku, and put Buggy and his crew into a temporary coma. This way, none of them would wake up. Not even Buggy.

After that, he went back to the group. They walked to the dock, and saw a boat. They figured it should be Nami's. Luffy and Zoro, seeing Buggy's flag on it, confirmed it from last time.

"So… where to next, Captain?" Zoro asked, although he remembered. However, Sanji and Pudding didn't. Nami was still unconscious. At this, Luffy grinned. "Yosh minna! We're going to Syrup Village next to pick up our sniper!"Luffy exclaimed, excited to see his sniper, Usopp again.

And… CUT! That's it for this chapter. I hope you all enjoyed it. Nami's unofficially back! The reason I'm keeping the fights short is because everyone in the crew, save Nami, is strong enough to give a Yonko a challenge. In this episode, Nami was about to die, so I couldn't have gotten her to fight. So… uhh… see you all next chapter? Bye!
