Characters/Pairing(s): Luffy, Nami, Usopp, Sanji

(Pre/Post) Time Skip: Post Time Skip

"Hm, this tastes familiar," said Luffy. Nami rolled her eyes for the eighth time.

"Come on, Luffy. You already said that last time," said Usopp. "Try harder!"

"I'm trying!"

To relieve their boredom, Luffy and Usopp came up with a ridiculous challenge. The fact that Luffy has eaten so much meat that could last a thousand lifetimes, he never thought about what he's actually eating. Having already tasted almost every food in the entire planet, Luffy wanted to see if he could really pick out what he's actually eating.

Luffy squinted his eyes as he chewed a little slower. From the kitchen, Sanji laughed when he saw his expression. "What? Give up already?"

"There's a ton of different tastes in it."

"Of course. I can't serve my food without it tasting good."

"I can't... Hold on... Is this... beef?"

Sanji nodded in approval. "Well done."

"Woohoo! First one done!"

"And ten more to go," said Sanji as he placed another well exquisite plate of meat in front of his captain. Without hesitation, Luffy stuffed the whole thing in his mouth, including the plate. "AH! Oi, Luffy, give the plate back!"

"Ah can- AH!" Sanji grabbed his neck and started choking him to get his fine china back.

"Spit it out, Luffy!"

"Nooo~!"

While beads of sweat poured down from Usopp's head from the awkwardness, Nami couldn't help but laugh at the situation.

"This is ham!" yelled Luffy.

"I don't give a shit!"

"Seconds!"

"LIKE HELL!"


Is it me, or does Usopp's voice seem a bit.. I don't know, different ever since the time skip started. He's still epic.. its just the voice bugs me a bit.

And it took me a while, but I kinda understand how difficult it is when a crew is actually trying to find One piece in the New World. The fact that there's three log poses now, you'd have to be pretty damn lucky when it comes to picking a certain direction, otherwise you'd just be traveling in circles.
