(Pre/Post) Time Skip: Post Time Skip

Nami was laying on her bed while reading a book when she felt the ship drop a bit. Thinking it was just a minor weather problem, she ignored it. She never thought she would be so hooked on this particular book. After stressing so much on her uncompleted maps, Robin suggested this one book to calm her down, and it worked.

She was almost at the reach of the climax of the story when she felt the ship drop again, only this time, it was a big drop. The drop startled her and made her drop her book and lose the current page she was on. Filled with anger and rage, Nami stomped out of the room and gripped the railing until her knuckles turned white.

"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?" Nami roared. She gasped when she saw something huge blocking her view of the deck. It was large, tall - for some reason tan- and it was almost larger than the ship. She looked up, but she couldn't see the top, but she could see a hint of a red shirt and a straw hat. "LUFFY?"

"No! Don't respond, Luffy, or the air will come out!" Nami heard through the intercom. She sighed. Assuming that there was no place for everyone to fit on the deck, everyone must've been on the crow's nest.

Nami ran up the stairs, all the way up to the helm. When she reached the top, she took a few steps back then lunged herself onto Luffy's back, or whatever side she was stepping on. Thanks to that rubber feeling, she didn't lose her balance. She ran as fast as she could around his body until she could see the ladder leading up to the crow's nest. At the perfect moment, she jumped high and reached a handle before she could let herself fall. She climbed to the top and her point was proven. Everyone was here.

"Nami-san, you were amazing out there!" said Sanji.

"What's going on?" asked Nami. "What's Luffy doing?"

"He wants to know how big and tall he could inflate his balloon," explained Franky.

"Couldn't he have waited until we landed on an island? If he gets any bigger, the ship will sink!"

Sanji blew out a cloud of smoke, unimpressed with Luffy's actions as well. "Either way, its not working. He's not as big as that giant manjuu back on Fishman Island."

"How long has this been going?"

"Probably for about half an hour," said Chopper. Nami sighed. She looked outside and saw that they were anchored in the middle of the ocean. If this gets any worse, they'll be sinking in the worst possible ocean on the planet. "Zoro, you're up."

Zoro shrugged, then adjusted his swords.

"No, Zoro!" yelled Chopper.

"Don't pop him!" yelled Usopp. Ignoring their comments, Zoro jumped down from the crow's nest and landed on top of Luffy. He slightly unsheathed a bit of his katana until he reached Luffy's head.

"Sorry, Luffy. I'm gonna have to pop you."

Luffy shook his head frantically, begging him not to pop the biggest achievement, literally, he could possibly have. Zoro fully unsheathed his katana and raised it up high with the tip of the sword pointing straight down. Luffy accidentally let out a little bit of air, resulting to a hiccup. Unable to hold his breath any longer, Luffy started to deflate rapidly. He then started swinging around like a balloon, with Zoro hanging on to him tightly.

From the crow's nest, Usopp and Chopper's faces fell when Luffy lost all the air in his body. They turned to Nami with irritated expressions.

"I hope you're happy."

Nami smiled triumphantly. She finally got her revenge. Robin couldn't help but giggle.

Down on the deck, both Luffy and Zoro were sprawled on the grass, breathing heavily after their little roller coaster ride in the air.

"Next time, I'm going to kill you," Zoro panted.

"Then I'll bring you along with me again."

Is anyone else obsessing over Sword Art Online other than me? Kirito and Asuna are too cute!
