Chapter 5: Monkey D. Luffy (Sandry)
Luffy grinned happily to himself, swinging his feet idly as he let a long fishing-line dangle over the Sunny's stern railing. The sun was out, the weather was good, he had a mostly-full stomach, and all of his nakama were doing well.
"Neh, Luffy-kun."
"Yeah?" Luffy asked without turning.
"What did you use for bait?"
"One of Sanji's empty cigarette boxes."
"Oh." A pause. "Isn't that littering?"
"Huh?"
Luffy, finally realizing that the voice, while female, wasn't Nami's or Robin's, turned. And saw a strange brunette lady with glasses standing there, looking at him curiously.
"Who're you?" he asked, blinking.
She smiled. "Call me Sandry."
"Okay."
"Neh, Luffy-kun?"
"Yeah?"
"Try using actual food as bait. Fish don't like cigarette boxes."
"REALLY?!" Luffy seemed shocked.
"Really." Sandry nodded affirmatively. "And try fishing at night, too, or when it's raining but not storming. Fish like to come closer to the surface when it's darker out."
"Thanks, Sandry!" Luffy grinned. "You sure know a lot about fish!" When there was no reply, he blinked. "Huh?"
She was gone.
