He was still alive, the raw winds scratching at his cheeks told him that much. He felt the seriousness of his injuries and cursed in his mind. There was no way now he could help Luffy get up the mountain now. No way he could make Nami better.
What seemed to be the worst part to the cook was the fact that the whole reason he had come was to ensure the safety of the journey and now having to be carried along with Nami proved him to be a burden. How easy it would be now for Luffy to get pushed off the sheer surface by a strong gust of wind while he was trying to haul Sanji up.
He was putting everyone in danger. Luffy should have left him behind. His captain had to survive. Had to achieve his dream. Had to help Nami to survive and achieve hers. In the pit of his stomach he wished for Luffy to just drop him.
And then he was falling fast, his silent wish granted. He felt panic amongst a vivid sense of freedom. Now his precious captain would make it. It surprised him that it was this that he thought in his last seconds. Precious? Why didn't Nami appear in his mind at that word? He had no answer only a burn of satisfaction that one day the king of pirates would carry the memory of him.
Teeth clinched to the back of his jacket and his plummet ended as Luffy regained his grip. Maybe he was precious to their captain too. The fool. When he could stand at the stove once more he promised himself to make Luffy a special meal from the heart.
