Summary:
A large and powerful shooting stream had thrown the Strawhats in a very strange island called the One-Stop Game Paradise. There they met two familiar groups of pirates who also served as their opponents in the game! Who will be the winner in finding first the long lost treasure of Ivan-kov, the Love Poneglyph? LuffyXNami [Assuming (2 years after) the strawhats were in a journey to an island before the Fishmen Island.]

Love Poneglyph
Everybody except Luffy fell asleep peacefully that night. Luffy's empty stomach had made him very wide-awake.
Wuahhh.. I'm gonna die of hunger now..!.., Luffy thought as he went off slowly and silently from his bed.
Hmm.. I think they are sleeping soundly now… so It's time for me to ransack the refrigerator!, Luffy's mouth was more drooling as he walked out from the males' sleeping quarters.
"Where do you think are you going?"
Luffy's happy face turned pale and his hand trembled with fear upon hearing a familiar voice behind him!
"N-n-nami? I was just checking the door knob…! A-he-he-he?"
"Tssh.. What a terrible liar.." Nami replied flatly.
"Am..? so excuse me.., I have to sleep―"
Before he could finish and enter their room, Nami was already pinching slightly his ear.
"Don't make any move and sounds. Just keep your mouth shut and follow me."
Luffy nodded and his stomach rumbled.
"Um.. Gome.. But I do not hold anymore the responsibility to the noise of my stomach…"
Nami was more irritated than ever but she had managed to just close her eyes to extend her patience.
After arriving in a hidden area of the Thousand Sunny, Luffy asked Nami, "A-ano..? Nami what are we doing here?"
"Luffy, promise me that you will never ever make any unnecessary sounds after I open this cloth. Understand?"
Luffy tilted his head and replied, "Roger that."
Nami locked her stare to her captain and took out the cloth cover.
"NYAAAA?!―" Luffy exclaimed.
Nami was very quick in covering Luffy's mouth.
"You idiot, captain! As expected of you!"
Luffy did stop reacting instantly and stared to his navigator blankly.
"Arigato Nami!" Luffy smiled and bowed to her. Then he started directly gobbling several foods.
Nami was just stunned for a moment but later on smiled sweetly to Luffy who continued eating greedily.
The two never thought that Robin was just observing them from afar. The archaeologist smiled as she remembered a very special and unforgettable memory with her and Nami.
"Heh? Is there a coming storm?" Zoro muttered behind Robin.
Robin was shocked a bit and chuckled softly, "I guess so… It's just the navigator is like the weather of the Grandline itself."
Zoro grinned in his agreement.

Morning came and Nami was the first one to wake up. She went up straightly to the deck while covering her cold and delicate body with her blanket.
What now?, she thought as she continued looking at the distance.
Suddenly she shivered from the very strong, cold wind of the dawn which moved the Thousand Sunny back to sailing again.
Zoro yawned loudly behind her and asked, "Morning already?"
"Yosh! Finally sailing again!" Usopp came and exclaimed happily while stretching his body for relaxation.
"Huh?! What's this..?" Nami interrupted suddenly.
"What's wrong Nami?" Usopp asked.
Nami's eyes widened as she yelled, "Seven minutes! Come on guys! Wake everybody up! We just have seven minutes and a very large, strong and powerful shooting stream will hit Thousand Sunny!"
"KYAAAAA!" Usopp screamed frightfully, "LUFFY! ROBIN! FRANKY! BROOK! SANJI! CHOPPER! THIS IS OUR ENDDDDDD―"
"Stop saying that and brace tightly yourself on something!" Nami exclaimed angrily and hit his head.
"Ouch…"
"Nami! I have secured already the Thousand Sunny! It will do no harm to our ship anymore!"
"ARIGATO! FRANK!―KY?" Nami realized, "I thought you just woke up and how did you finish checking our ship's condition?!"
"Never underestimate my SUUUPPPER SKILLS!" Franky bragged and gestured his signature 'SUPER' pose, "AWWW!"
Nami closed her eyes and muttered, "Hai..Hai.. ―Yosh! Everyone! Here we go! Just never ever lose your grip!"
"AYE!"
Robin whispered, "This could be…"
Before she could continue her words, the Thousand Sunny flew in just a blink of the eye.
"Namiiii! Where do you think are we goingggg?!" Luffy asked excitedly.
"I actually do not know!"
"NYAAA! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Usopp and Chopper screamed in unison.
"YOHOHOHO! Scary! My eyes seem to pop up from its sockets..! Am.?. Oh! I forgot that I do not have eyes at all! Yohohoho!"
"Nami-swaannn! Robin-chwaann! Bury yourselves in my embrace now! IM GONNA PROTECT YOU BOTH WITH ALL MY HEART AND SOUL!"
"Just bury yourself alive, Baka-cook," Zoro muttered.
"HEHH?"
"Thousand Sunny! Just hold on a bit! Don't worry! I'm gonna repair you afterwards!" Franky yelled.
~~~~~0~~~~~
It was a dejavu for the seven of them since Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, Chopper and Robin had already experienced it through the knock up stream only that the current stream was way larger and more powerful.
"Usopp! Please wake up! Stay with us! Don't dieeeee!" Chopper wailed.
"What..is..this…place? Huh? So this is the heaven that they are talking about…? ―Whoahh! There's light! I want to follow that light!"
"KYAAAAA! Usopp! Don't follow that light or you'll die!" Chopper cried some more while running back and forth.
"Chopper.. just bid my goodbye for―"
Before Usopp could utter his final word, Chopper rushed and stuck his two hoofs to his mouth!
"RRRR…KRRRRYaaaaa!" Usopp yelled and roared louder to Chopper, "Are you trying to kill me Chopper?!"
"Usoooppppuuu!" Chopper rejoiced and jumped to hug his long nose comrade, "I'm so glad you're okay now!"
"Of course! Captain Usopp will never die in that way! NYAHAHAAH!" Usopp declared proudly.
While Usopp continued his self-proclamation, Franky started fixing their ship and Brook offered his help and walked with him.
"YOSH! SANJI! Prepare now my Kaizoku Bento! Shishihshishi!" Luffy demanded excitedly, "I'm ready now for an adventure!"
"Hai..Hai..," Sanji smiled and went inside the kitchen.
"Hey Luffy! You will never leave this ship by yourself!" Nami ordered.
"Naammmii…,"Luffy whined, "Don't you understand men's romance?"
"Zoro, Robin and I shall accompany you," Nami added.
"Me? What the hell?! I am planning to sleep.!" Zoro complained.
Robin smiled and nodded in Nami's request.
"No more complaints or else I'm gonna raise your debts!" Nami yelled.
Zoro's anger raised and he was muttering several words by which Nami ignored.
"YOSH! Luffy! Here's your Kaizoku Bento!" Sanji exclaimed.
"Yahoo! Arigato Sanji!"
"Sanji-kun!" Nami smiled sweetly.
"Hai! NAmi-swaan?!" Sanji flirted.
"Zoro, Luffy, Robin and I are gonna survey the island first. We'll be back in few minutes so I shall leave you the ship and the remaining crew. Okay?"
"Haiii! Nami-swaann!" Sanji nodded in love-love eyes but as soon as he realized that the two ladies will be going out with the two idiots, he turned into a stone and screamed crying, "Don't tell me Nami-swaann, the four of you will be double dating?!"
Nami's eyes widened a bit but she managed to control her emotions and replied, "Sanji-kun, we're going now and that will never happen..."
Then she looked at Luffy who was jumping up and down like a child chanting, "Adventure! Adventure! Adventure!"
Nami closed her eyes and sighed, "Ever.."
"Okay Nami-swaan!" Sanji rejoiced and suddenly shifted his gaze and tone flatly at the reindeer and long nose, "Oi! Chopper, Usopp! Both of you! Work your asses now and help Franky there! I'm gonna stay here to look after the ship!"
"Who are you?! Are you the male version of Nami?" Usopp complained as he left to help Franky.
Sanji giggled and he blushed because he was flattered!
"Oi..OI… that was not something to be flattered.. It's an insult.." Usopp said flatly.
Chopper tittered and went happily with Usopp.
~~~~~0~~~~~
Robin, Zoro, Luffy and Nami started to survey the island. They just saw it as an ordinary island with several trees, plants and some flowers but the two ladies noticed something.
"Why should I always follow your orders?! You're not even the captain?!" Zoro complained to Nami.
"I think Robin you noticed what I noticed too?" Nami asked while looking around and ignoring Zoro.
"Yes," Robin replied, "I wondered why is there no animals here?"
"DON'T IGNORE PEOPLE WHEN THEY'RE TALKING TO YOU!" Zoro fumed.
"Shut up Zoro! Do you think that baka-captain has the slightest capability?!" Nami finally defended .
Both of them looked at their captain who was singing happily his favorite song while holding and swaying a stick.
"A-ano?" Zoro narrowed his eyes to his captain and stared back to Nami saying flatly, "Just forget what I've said."
Suddenly Robin interrupted and assumed, "Maybe there are some hunters or tribes living and hiding around here who really love and dying to eat meat..."
Nami's body shook with fear and cold sweat rolled over her face.
"I.. I think we better leave now…," Nami said shakily.
"I agree," Robin smiled and continued, "Before we fall in some traps here and become dinner for those meat lovers."
Nami's eyes widened and hid suddenly in between Zoro and Robin.
"Don't tell me they also like human meat?" Nami asked.
Zoro and Robin replied together, "Cannibals do exist."
Suddenly Nami heard someone munching something! As she turned around, her whole body shivered with fear and shifted suddenly to anger when she discovered who that person was.
"Eh? What Nami?" Luffy asked innocently, "Are you hungry too?"
Nami hit Luffy's head directly and said, "I'm gonna die of heart attack because of you!"
"What's your problem?! I'm just eating! It's your fault why you don't have any food to eat now since awhile ago you did not ask Sanji to make your bento!"
Nami was more furious now when suddenly she saw Zoro walking by himself!
"Zoro," Nami called sweetly hiding her anger, "Where the hell are you going?"
At first, Zoro looked at her calmly but he noticed immediately the red aura that Nami was emitting behind her so he stepped back but it was too late!
Nami did a direct hit to his head.
"Owwww! WHAT'S THE PROBLEM WITH THIS WOMAN?!" Zoro screamed angrily.
"Ahahahaahah!" Luffy laughed and said, "Maybe Nami is just having her period. Ahahahahaha!"
Nami looked back at Luffy and her eyes blazed in fire!
Without further a due, she smashed Luffy's head to the ground.
The navigator stood and started her drama. She touched her forehead and cried, "What did I do to you my fate to hate me like this? Why did you allow me to be surrounded with these two hopeless idiots? Why…?"
Nami fell to her knees in despair when suddenly Robin called her.
"Nami-san, come over here!"
Nami suddenly stopped crying and her once very hopeless face turned vibrant again!
"I'm so thankful that I still have Robin!"
She rushed to Robin and they were now situated at the peak. There they saw three big pirate ships.
Nami whispered, "Why are they here and who owns that two other ships?"
"WHOOOOOHHHH! The Kuja's pirate ship!" Luffy interrupted.
"And the Galley-La Company's pirate ship.." Zoro muttered.
"Huh…? Galley-La Company's pirate ship…," Nami and Luffy repeated.
Then suddenly the two burst, "PIRATE SHIP? GALLEY-LA COMPANY SHIPWRIGHTS BECAME PIRATES?!"
Zoro grinned, "This is interesting.."
Then they heard from afar some sounds of celebration.
~~~~~0~~~~~
The four went back to Thousand Sunny and reported to the remaining crew what they had discovered.
"YOU MEAN?! THE PIRATE EMPRESS, BOA HANCOCK IS DEFINETELY HERE?!" Sanji thundered in blazing passion.
"Shishishishishi!" Luffy smiled.
"AND JUST WHAT HAPPENED TO THOSE BRAINS OF GALLEY-LA COMPANY'S SHIPWRIGHTS?" Franky yelled, "ARE THEY THAT SO INSPIRED BY ME? TSHH.., anyways, I cannot blame them.., that's just how my charisma is working strongly..AWWW!"
"Oi.. oi.. you mentioned that there is this other unknown ship… Maybe we're in the middle of danger now… We don't know what these groups of pirates are into…. I guess we better leave this island now!" Usopp exclaimed.
"Usopp is right! We should not get into others' business so let's leave now..!" Chopper agreed.
"YOHOHOHOHO! But.. I'd like to see first BOA HANCOCK'S―"
Brook saw Nami's fierce stare at him so he did not continue saying it.
"So what's your plan now, captain?" Robin asked smiling.
All of them locked their stare to their captain who was already possessed by the burning spirit of adventure.
"This is hopeless.., He's not listening at all…" Usopp, Chopper and Nami sighed.
"AWWW! It's been decided now by the captain that we're gonna stay here. Don't worry everyone the Thousand Sunny is already prepared to go!" Franky declared.
Zoro and Robin smiled while Sanji and Brook exclaimed, "THIS IS IT! PIRATE EMPRESS BOA HANCOCK, WAIT AND WELCOME OUR LOVE!"
The three just sighed in the corner as Luffy shouted, "YAHOOO! A – D – V- E – N – T – U – R – E !"
~~~~~0~~~~~
The Strawhats docked their ship along with the other three pirate ships. Then Luffy used his unique food hunting instincts and led his crew happily to the place where they had heard some sounds of celebration. Just then, they noticed something wrong to Sanji!
"Sanji! Are you okay?!" Chopper exclaimed as he rushed to check his condition.
"That ship… that ship.." Sanji muttered as he was pointing shakily to the said ship.
"What's the matter with him, Chopper?" Luffy worried.
"I do not know. I've checked his condition but he's just fine… All I know is when he saw that ship, he began rattling like that..."
"Tssh. Oi, kinky-cook. Don't let the whole crew wait. Just tell us now if you want to stay here," Zoro said flatly.
"Oi..oi.. Zoro that's too harsh.. We can't leave him here.." Usopp said.
Just then, the cook went back to his senses and lit a cigarette.
"Heh? Oi, baka-marimo.. Don't you ever mess with me like that.." Sanji said seriously.
"Hoh? So you're ready for a fight?" Zoro challenged.
Before they started their fight, Nami passed in the middle of them and hit both of their heads.
"Let's go now," Nami ordered.
"T-THAT witch!" Zoro yelled.
"Hai! Nami-swaaaan! Please don't be so jealous about Boa Hancock.. because it's only a simple admiration.. Nothing more, nothing less!" Sanji exclaimed.
"Oi! Everyone! Hurry now or else the foods will ran out!" Luffy called angrily.
Everyone sighed, "Hai.. Hai.."
~~~~~0~~~~~
The Strawhats came in the place where they heard all the noises of laughter and music of celebration. They were all shocked to see several and different groups of pirates enjoying the banquet.
"No wonder all the animals in this island are all gone," Nami sighed.
Robin nodded while looking around.
"Let's guard ourselves everyone…," Usopp whispered, "We should be moving very carefully here…"
"Yeah… A Shichibukai is here and we just don't know how strong and powerful these bunch of pirates are.." Chopper added.
"Any wrong move done here and we're all dead..," Brook muttered seriously and he realized, "Oh.. but I forgot I am already dead!?―Yohohoho!"
"Good for you," Usopp said narrowing his eyes to Brook.
"So what are we going to do now?" Chopper asked.
"Always be alert on anything. For now, let's just act normally," Usopp instructed.
"Usopp! Come over here and taste this very delicious mega pork barbecue!" Luffy exclaimed while swallowing the barbecue.
Usopp was behind Luffy talking while closing his eyes and said, "Luffy you really don't understand the situation. All of us are in a grave danger AND!―"
Usopp opened his eyes and was about to continue reprimanding Luffy loudly but he was shocked! It was the first time Usopp saw that extra-large size of pork barbecue!
"YYYUMMMMYY!" Luffy was totally overwhelmed by several delicious foods.
"YOU'RE RIGHT! THIS IS THE MOST DELICOUS MEGA PORK BARBECUE EVER!" Usopp exclaimed with sparkling eyes after he tasted the said food.
Nami and Robin saw the two helpless idiots danced with so much joy because of the mega pork barbecue they ate.
"Nami, Robin! I'm glad to find some cotton candies over there! Here I have brought you two!" Chopper offered gladly to the two ladies his favorite.
Robin smiled, "Thank you Chopper!"
Nami sighed a bit about the risky situation of their crew but she managed to smile and also thank Chopper.
The three continued eating at the corner while watching over the captain and the sniper who continued eating greedily. Just then, they heard the cook and the skeleton flirting with several beautiful waitresses.
"Miss.., can I see your pan―" Brook wasn't able to continue because his head was kicked by Sanji.
The beautiful lady blushed instantly because she knew what Brook meant. Sanji was mesmerized further when suddenly the waitress started to lift slowly her skirt with no doubt!
The two were drooling and were having nosebleed as they waited for the most incredible moment of perverts like them.
Nami saw what the lady was doing and in just a blink of the eye rushed and kicked badly the waitress!
"IS THAT A GIRL'S DOING?!" Nami yelled as she gasped for air, "YOU TWO! GO BACK THERE AT THE CORNER! NOW!"
"Hai.. Nami-swaan…," the two sighed sadly as black and violet aura engulfed their atmosphere.
"OI! NAMI!" Zoro yelled angrily from afar. "YOU REALLY DID KICK THIS LADY ON PURPOSE AND HIT ME DIRECTLY? DID YOU?!"
"Oh! So there you are Zoro…," Nami muttered sweetly.
"Tsshh.. That bitter-sweet tone," Zoro murmured.
"Oh! Excuse me? but we're currently having some Sake Competition here," an old man interrupted, "Mr. Swordsman are you still planning to continue and win the 30 million beli?"
Nami repeated immediately, "30 million beli?"
"Oh, yeah Miss. We have this competition for anyone who wants to join. The winner will be the last person standing drinking Sake and will get the prize of 30 mil―"
"YOSH! CHEERS!" Nami yelled happily with her eyes sparkling in beli.
"Lion Beli… OKAY! LET'S RESUME THE COMPETITION!" the old man declared loudly and laughed proudly.
"Okay.. Ignored again…," Zoro sighed and gulped the whole bottle of sake.
~~~~~0~~~~~
"Sanji, please cheer up now," Chopper said.
Suddenly the dark and gloomy aura of Sanji turned vibrant as he screamed, "Nami-swaaaaaaan! I am very sorryyyyyyy! Sorry because I was too dumb to just realize now how you love me so much!"
Brook and Chopper were both surprised while Robin giggled.
"A-ano.. Sanji?"
The cook spread his arms and made himself ready to hug Nami when after he opened gently his eyes, he never expected to see the love of his life drinking with Zoro.!
"Sanji…?" Chopper asked.
"H-O-WWWW D-A-R-E YOUUUUUUU, SHITTTTY MARIMOOOOO00OO!" Sanji roared, "DRINK WITH NAMI-SAN IN MY PLACE?!"
"Sanji-san is soo scary!" Brook yelled.
The cook attacked directly the prepared swordsman while Nami continued doing her business.
"You filthy love cook! DON'T DISTURB ME WHEN I'M DRINKING SAKE!" Zoro yelled back as he blocked Sanji's strong kicks.
"Excuse me gentlemen, please move away from here," said calmly by the old man, "Don't interrupt the contest here..."
The cook and the swordsman did not mind the poor old man. They continued fighting while Nami was fully drowned of her Beli fantasy.
~~~~~0~~~~~
Franky was still finding some cola drinks when suddenly someone had blown him hardly that he even landed to where Zoro and Sanji was fighting!
"Ouch… what the hell?..," Franky wondered while rubbing his head.
"Long time no see, Franky?" the blond haired man with a cigar in his mouth greeted from afar.
"Huh?! Damn you, Paulie! What was that for? Huh?! Are you picking a fight?!" Franky shouted angrily and sat up.
"Actually, that was not my personal greeting to you. I was so shocked to see you here and you accidentally made me remembered what Iceberg-san told me before we sailed."
"Heh?"
"Iceberg said that whenever I meet you, I will hit you as a sign of his greetings to you."
"Oh, I see," Franky said while rubbing his chin, "I never thought that he missed me that much.. Heh, that Baka-berg…"
"Oi, Franky… Will you get up now?" Zoro interrupted.
"Zoro? Sanji? A- Gome… Hehe," Franky got up and the cook and swordsman followed.
"Hoh.. one of the Gally-La Company Shipwrights," Zoro muttered.
"Oh no… The contest is really gone for nothing now…" said the old man sadly.
"Yeah and so my 30 million beli…," Nami cried in despair, "And this is all because of you idiots..."
Nami narrowed her eyes to the three fiercely and knocked them all at once! Then she switched her fury to Paulie whose jaw was dropped in awe and anger and was blushing furiously.
"Oi! Woman! You really did not change the way you dress! That revealing looks of yours is not―"
"SHUT UP, Blusher!" Nami yelled back and knocked him out too.
Nami continued crying and pleaded to the old man for reconsideration of the contest.
"I'm so sorry but we cannot do that already. The contest is over and this is in fact the fault of your crew..," the old man explained, "I even decided to charge you and that blond man of all the damages you made here…"
"Huh? Really?" Nami asked in dismay, "So I guess I better put you to sleep too…"
"Ouch... What a money fiend…" the old man said and fainted.
~~~~~0~~~~~
"Daisy, have you seen that orange haired-lady?" Ran asked.
"Yeah, that lady has that real monstrous strength.. Zahahaha!"
"Daisy, your laugh is too unrefined," lectured by Rindo.
"Hey, let's go now and find the snake princess," Ran said.
~~~~~0~~~~~
Luffy and Usopp was still eating. They were both unaware that a very beautiful lady had been observing Luffy for ten minutes already!
"Sister, why don't you approach him already?" Boa Sandersonia suggested.
"It's been 10 minutes already and you haven't greeted him yet," Boa Marigold added.
"I cannot move my body even an inch…I think I'm in heaven right now..… My happiness is overflowing because my one and only love is just right in front of my eyes…Ah… Luffy… Is this destiny drawing us together?..."
The snake princess, Boa Hancock was the ultimate fan and lover of Monkey D. Luffy the captain of the Strawhat Pirates. She was totally mesmerized by Luffy when suddenly her beautiful scenery was totally devastated by a particular amazon of the Strawhats.
"Luffy?" Nami asked calmly.
"Wuuuuu! Nami! Are you hungry now?"
"Oi, Nami. If you're hungry, you better eat now or else Luffy and I are gonna eat all these foods!" Usopp added.
Hancock's very gentle and sweet eyes turned scary when she heard Nami's name uttered by Luffy.
"So.. that's Nami..." Hancock muttered angrily.
"Sister? Are okay?" Marigold and Sandersonia asked.
Hancock did not reply and continued observing at the same scene.
"JUST HOW LONG WILL YOU STOP EATING!" Nami thundered and smashed Luffy's head at the table.
"KYAAAAA! NAMI! You're scarrrryyyyyy!" Usopp freaked out.
"LET'S GET OUT OF HERE!..." Nami roared some more, "NOWWW!"
Boa Hancock was just listening silently at first but upon seeing Luffy's head was smashed and those unforgivable words that Nami uttered made the Snake Princess to enter the scene.
"OI, damn woman! How dare you do that to my one and only love!"
"HEhhh?" Nami shifted her blazing eyes to the intruder, "JUST WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?!"
"KYAAAA! NAMI!" Usopp ran and covered Nami's mouth, "Please! For heaven's sake… Just keep your mouth shut if you still want to live…!"
"Hehh?" Nami wondered and looked more closely to the sexy 'look-down' pose of the beautiful intruder.
"Oi! Long time no see, Hancock!" Luffy greeted while still eating greedily.
"Huh! Luffy…" the snake princess muttered, "Did you miss me?.."
Nami's eyes widened after she realized that it was the Pirate Empress, Boa Hancock!
"What are you doing here Hancock?" Luffy wondered.
"A-ano..?" the snake princess was totally overwhelmed by happiness and she cannot utter normally a word.
"Strawhat Luffy, we're glad to see―"
Before Marigold and Sandersonia continued their greetings, they were struck with love and awe by Sanji and Zoro walking from afar.
"Tch! This is all your fault baka-marimo..," Sanji mumbled angrily, "Why Nami-swan is so angry.."
"Heh?! Why does it have to be me?!"
Suddenly Chopper called them out.
"Huh? Chopper? What's the matter?" Zoro asked.
"The snake princess is already talking there with Luffy!" Chopper said happily.
"Y-YOU MEAN THE PIRATE EMPRESS, BOA HANCOCK?!" Sanji thundered with very big love-love eyes, "AND HUH?! TALKING TO LUFFY?!"
Chopper nodded and Robin smiled.
"YOHOHOHO! What are we waiting for Sanji-san? Let's welcome her―" Brook saw Sanji rushed away, "…with all our love… Ah.. He's gone already…"
"I just hope his nosebleed won't really be that severe…" Chopper worried.
"OI! Sanji-san! WAIT FOR ME!" Brook shouted.
"TCH.. I just pity those hopeless idiots.." Zoro muttered.
Suddenly Robin's eyes widened with fear upon seeing a very familiar group approached them.
"Huh?― What's wrong Robin?" Zoro asked and turned around to see what she saw.
"W-What are they doing here?" Robin said nervously, "Don't tell me…"
"Rob Lucci, Kalifa, Blueno.. and Kaku…" Zoro muttered calmly.
"NYAAAAAA! WHAT ARE THEY DOING HERE?! AREN'T THEY SUPPOSED TO BE IN JAIL?!"
"That goes the same to us, Chopper…" Franky grinned, "Have you forgotten we're also all wanted by the government right?"
"OH… hehehe, I forgot," Chopper blushed.
"Sorry everyone for the delay in introducing my remaining crewmates!" Paulie grinned, "We are the newly formed Galley-La Pirates!"
Everyone was put to silence. They were all emotionless when suddenly Franky released a big laughter!
"HAHAHAHAAH! Just why the hell did you stick with 'Galley-La'?" Franky commented, "Aren't you suppose to keep the good name and image of the Galley-La company? Just think about how the people will regard now the Galley-La company knowing that there are certain pirates who make use of it in vain?!"
"Heh? You make a good point there…" Paulie said while rubbing his chin, "YOSH! From now on, were gonna change it to GL Pirates! Sounds better right?"
"Tch.. Sounds horrible.. How about CP-9 Pirates?.." Kalifa grinned.
"That's way too pathetic!" Paulie refused angrily.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?!―HUH?!" Kalifa roared back.
"Oi.. that's enough.. Why don't we talk about it later… For now let's just meet Mugiwara Luffy there…" Kaku suggested.
"Yeah right!" Paulie agreed and went ahead.
Rob Lucci just followed them emotionless.
Rob Lucci…, Zoro thought.
"Mugiwara Luffy!" Paulie called out, "It's good to see you back! Hehehe"
"WHOAAAHH! PAULIE!?" Luffy reacted.
The Strawhats clapped happily because finally their captain remembered correctly a name of a person in their past adventures.
"And? NYAAAAH?! LUCY?" Luffy continued.
"Wahh! Of all the names!― It's Lucci!" the Strawhats yelled.
"Yeah, we're in the same pirate group" Paulie said.
"The world is getting crazier…" Usopp whispered to Nami.
"Kyaaaa! Sanji turned into a stone!" Chopper exclaimed, "And Brook too!"
"But our sister did not use her Mero-mero power? How can that be?" Sandersonia wondered.
"Just leave them like that. They're both perverts that's the reason why they turned into that…" Zoro said flatly.
Sandersonia was struck further by the cool looks and voice of Zoro which made someone so annoyed behind Zoro.
"Luffy..?" Hancock asked flirtatiously, "Are you still planning to leave this island immediately?.."
"Nope," Luffy answered right away, "Shishishihshi.."
"Urgh.." Nami got angrier silently.
"Heh? Nami? Are you all right?" Usopp asked.
Suddenly Paulie exclaimed again.
"WAAAAHHHHH! WHY IS THE WORLD NOW FILLED with SEVERAL HARLOT WOMEN?!" Paulie thundered angrily while pointing to the Kuja Pirates.
"OI! WATCH YOUR MOUTH FILTHY BLUSHER!" the Kuja pirates replied angrily, "How dare you insult us!"
The snake princess ignored him and was totally drowned with her fantasy with Luffy.
"Paulie," Franky barged in, "So how the hell did you get here?"
"We got here through a large and mysterious shooting stream," Paulie replied seriously.
"That's what had also happened to us…" Usopp replied.
Sanji returned to his consciousness when he heard Luffy asked, "How about you Hancock?"
She suddenly blushed and replied happily, "This is what destiny is! That's what also happened to us..
"Gyaaaa! Luffy! Just what did you do last two years?!" Sanji cried, "What the hell did you do to make this very beautiful Pirate Empress to fall in―"
Nami knocked the cook. She was more and more annoyed now but she managed to keep her composure right. Luffy on the other hand laughed blankly.
"Ouch! NAmi-Swaann…" Sanji cried some more, "Forgive me for being so unfaithful….!"
Robin looked at the angry navigator from the distance and closed her eyes.
"So this means you are going to participate in the game that will be held here?" Kaku grinned.
"Heh? Game?" wondered by the Strawhats.
Suddenly the previous waitress together with some beautiful girls encountered by Nami, Sanji and Brook appeared in a big, rising stage.
"Whoah!" Sanji and Brook exclaimed together in heart-shaped eyes.
"What is she doing there?!" Nami asked angrily.
The pretty waitress together with the other beautiful girls turned their backs to the audience and transformed themselves to their original forms!
"GYAHHH!" Sanji's soul departed instantly from his body after seeing all the okama he encountered in his hellish adventure in Kamabakka Kingdom.
"Oh, SANJI-KUN!" the long red-haired okama greeted flirtatiously, "Do you still remember me?"
"Heh…?" Zoro grinned, "Sanji? Is this your girl―"
Sanji stopped Zoro's mouth by his strongest kick.
"Shut up… You Baka Marimo…" Sanji muttered angrily.
Zoro narrowed his eyes to the cook and began his revenge to Sanji.
Nami stopped the usual fighting scene leaving the two unconsciously then she said firmly, "Maybe these okama are the ones owning the unknown ship there!"
All the okama nodded and grinned.
"Tch. We don't have any reason to stay in this island anymore. So let's go now!" Nami ordered.
Hancock locked her fierce stare to the sexy navigator when suddenly the okama interrupted, "You have your guts Miss, but now I tell you that once you have entered this island; you don't have any choice but to participate in the game that will be held tomorrow."
"Just what the hell is this game you are talking about?!" Nami asked angrily.
"Please… Watch your mouth lady…" the okama grinned, "Because I am Caroline! The one and only beautiful right hand of Ivan-kov!"
"Ivan-kov?" Luffy wondered.
"Gyah! Don't tell me?!" Sanji butted in, "This was the paradise you have mentioned to me before!"
"Hahaha! So she's really your girlfriend!" Zoro mocked.
"URASAI!" Sanji yelled angrily and kicked Zoro again.
Luffy and the others laughed while Robin muttered seriously, "So my guess was right… This is the One-Stop Game Paradise."
The Kuja and Strawhat pirates were put into silence as the right hand of Ivan-kov confirmed what Robin had said.
"I welcome you everyone and I hope you will all enjoy your stay here in One-Stop Game Paradise!" Caroline exclaimed and laughed loudly.
"KYAAAAA! WE'RE ALL TRAPPED! We're all trapped!" Usopp and Chopper screamed together.
The okama giggled and continued seriously, "Before I forget, since this is a game all of you are obliged to follow the rules and those who violate the rules will no longer sail again… You know what I mean…"
"Hoh? You're too strong for us?" Zoro grinned, "Let's see then!"
Everyone was astonished when Zoro began to draw his swords! Unfortunately, a hidden and powerful force immobilized him.
"What are you doing Zoro?" Luffy asked.
"Rrraaaaaarr!" Zoro roared, "What the hell is this strange and powerful force?!"
"Like I have said, you cannot escape here unless you have found the long lost treasure of Ivan-kov, the Love Poneglyph"
"YOSH! Let's end this stupid and boring conversation and start the game now!" Nami exclaimed in beli eyes.
Love Poneglyph?, Robin thought.
"Shishishishishi," Luffy laughed, "Yeah! We will participate!"
"Nyahhh…. This is getting worse…," Usopp worried.
The okama smiled widely and released Zoro instantly.
"That suits you baka marimo," Sanji mocked.
Zoro narrowed his angry eyes to Sanji when Usopp interrupted, "Calm down Zoro! Remember this is just a game!"
"Why don't we replace this game through a fight?!" Zoro yelled, "Are you scared?! Heh?!"
Nami knocked Zoro out and smiled awkwardly, "Sorry for that foul mouth of our nakama Miss Caroline.."
Caroline looked at her intently and smiled, "This game has just one rule. Do not hurt your opponents. Once you violated this main rule, expect that you will receive the same demo I presented to the handsome swordsman for thirty minutes!"
"That's a Suuuppperrr delay..," Franky commented.
"Okay so we've got that," Nami noted, "Will you please explain further the rewards that the winning group will get?"
"OI! Nami!" Usopp interfered, "Have you forgotten the dangers that we may encounter in the game?!"
Nami ignored him and Chopper added, "She's not listening at all."
"Tch! She's not thinking well! What if none of us here will find this Love Poneglyph?!"
"Usopp has a point," Franky said, "In that worst case scenario; certainly we cannot go on in our voyage."
"EXACTLY!" the okama laughed, "Have you noticed the skeletons scattered around there?"
"Although I am also a living skeleton here…. Yohohoho!" Brook intervened.
Everyone except Luffy turned seriously to him.
"SKULL JOKE! YOHOHOHO!"
"Yahahahahaha!" Luffy laughed, "Skull Joke!"
Only both of them laughed when Nami exclaimed positively, "Anyway, you don't have to worry Usopp. We will win this game for sure!"
"And what's your basis?"
"I HAVE GOOD LUCK!" Luffy exclaimed proudly.
"Y-YEAH! We will certainly find it! Right, Luffy?!" Nami cheered.
"DEFINITELY!"
Luffy and Nami cheered and laughed together which made Boa Hancock declared in jealousy, "The Kuja Pirates will not participate in this game!"
Sandersonia, Marigold and the other Kuja Pirates were all astonished of the Pirate Empress' sudden decision.
"Why? Hancock?" Luffy asked.
"Ahh… Luffy, I will never treat you as my opponent because I―"
"Luffy! What are we waiting for?! We have to device our strategies now to win this game!" Nami interrupted quickly.
"Ohh- I see!" Luffy agreed, "Let's go!"
"Of all the men why Luffy?!" Sanji cried, "Pirate Empress Boa Hancock….? Why?.."
Boa Hancock was stabbed directly in the heart. She was in severe pain when suddenly Caroline exclaimed flirtatiously, "That's the spirit, Mugiwara Pirates! Now let me discuss formally the rewards of the winning group!"
"YOSH!" Nami said excitedly.
Chopper, Usopp and Brook sighed together while Sanji wiggled in his love for Nami.
Ahh… I still have Nami-swaann…, Sanji thought happily.
"The winning group will get the entire large treasure box of Ivan-kov after finding his Love Poneglyph and also each group should discuss all your wishes and desires. Write them in this special paper to be signed by your competitors whenever they are involved in your contract."
Boa Hancock's face turned vibrant. Then she gave an evil grin and announced, "Sorry for the wrong announcement awhile ago but the Kuja Pirates will be participating in this game!"
Paulie lit another cigar and smirked, "Shall we have those special papers now and begin making the contracts?"
"SURE! WHY NOT!" the okama exclaimed happily and distributed the papers.
~~~~~0~~~~~
After some few minutes of deliberation the three groups handed their contracts to Caroline.
"Now let me read to you the contract made by the Mugiwaras. It says here that aside from winning the large treasure box of Ivan-kov, all strawhat men will have to see Boa Hancock's pant―"
"CHOTTO MATTE!" Nami rushed and erased quickly the recent wish mentioned.
"But Mellorine…..," Sanji pleaded.
"URASAI!" This time Nami smashed brutally the cook's head on the ground.
All the strawhat guys pretended not to see the horrible event.
Nami.. scary… all of them except Zoro thought.
"Geez! I have already erased that! Anyway, please continue."
Robin giggled while the Kuja except for the blushing Hancock and Galley-La Pirates dropped their jaws.
The okama smiled widely and continued, "The strawhats want to have more meat and treasures and continue their voyage."
"Tch! How plain..," Paulie commented.
"Snake Princess, are you okay?" the Kuja Pirates asked.
Luffy.., I think you are not really ready to seal our love through marriage… But I am very sorry… I cannot take risk…. You will be mine now…., Boa thought while looking at Luffy so determined.
"Now for the Kuja Pirates," Caroline declared.
"This is it our sister," Sandersonia and Marigold muttered.
"It says here that the Kuja Pirates would like their Snake Princess., Boa Hancock to marry the captain of the Strawhat Pirates, Monkey D. Luffy―"
"NAAAAAaaani?!" Luffy and Sanji reacted angrily.
Boa blushed furiously. Zoro, Usopp, Franky, Brook, Chopper dropped their jaws. Robin closed her eyes and Nami stood motionless.
"Also, her sister Boa Sandersonia would like to marry the swordsman, Roronoa Zo―"
"GYAA!" Zoro managed to choke a very devastated reaction.
"BWAHAHAHA!" Sanji was laughing and at the same time crying to death, "Why?... Why Boa Hancock…..?"
"But it's a great coincidence," Franky grinned, "They do have the same color of hair…"
Usopp, Chopper and Brook dropped their jaws further and the three of them nodded together. Robin narrowed her eyes to Sandersonia while Nami still stood motionless.
"Lastly, Boa Marigold wants to marry the one and only love cook of the Mugiwaras, Sanji…"
This time Franky joined the group of Usopp who finally dropped their jaws to the ground. Luffy and Zoro cried and laughed to the poor cook. Sanji cried and knelt down in despair.
The monster trio's reactions were so devastated. The three of them lost their sanity in that particular moment of their lives. Usopp, Brook, Chopper and Franky looked at the three with sorrowful eyes while Robin and Nami were still dead silent.
"So from the start, the Kuja Pirates did have the plan on stealing our precious nakamas," Usopp muttered sadly.
Chopper gave little sobs and nodded hopelessly.
"Love has the power to rule everything… Awww…," Franky cried.
"We have to do something! Robin! Nami-san!" Brook panicked.
Robin glimpsed secretly at Nami who was still staring blankly on the ground. Robin waited the navigator to react but she finally gave up and bowed her head.
"LIKE I HAVE SAID!" Nami shouted at the top of her lungs, "WE WILL WIN THIS GAME!"
Everyone was astonished. Boa Hancock became angrier and more determined to win the game.
"DON'T BE SO COCKY FILTHY NAVI―"
"RIGHT LUFFY?!" Nami added.
Luffy blinked twice and yelled in his reply, "AYE!"
Boa Hancock almost lost her will to live upon hearing her one and only love agreed to her rival.
"Sister! Please stay with us! We will do our best to win this game!"
"OI! Enough with the dramas and continue our part!" Paulie interrupted.
"Oh, I'm sorry," Caroline continued, "Lastly to the Galley La Pirates, they wish to get more and more treasures―"
"Tch! How plain..," Franky avenged.
"And also their group wishes to get Robin and Nami as their nakama…"
"Naaaanii?!" Nami and Sanji reacted angrily.
"How dare you attempt in taking our sexy navigator and hot archaeologist!" Sanji said angrily, "Are you not contented with your one and only queen, Kalifa, HUH?!"
Kalifa flushed and smiled to Paulie who also blushed and denied, "WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! THERE'S NO WAY I'LL FALL IN LOVE WITH YOUR FILTHY HARLOT LADIES!"
"KUSOOOOO! YOU ARE REALLY PICKING A FIGHT HUH?!" Sanji yelled further.
Robin narrowed her eyes to Lucci who was also looking at her intently.
What are you planning...? Rob Lucci?, Robin thought nervously.
Nami was crying loudly like a child and said, "So this was the feeling you had awhile ago.. Luffy.., Sanji-kun.. Zoro…?"
The Gorgon sisters laughed and exclaimed, "Nice one! Galley La Pirates!"
Luffy and Sanji cried together with Nami when suddenly Zoro yelled, "WHAT ARE YOU ALL DOING?!"
The strawhats looked sadly to Zoro.
"YOU! NAMI AND LUFFY! YOU WERE ACTING SO COOL JUST AWHILE AGO AND NOW?! JUST WHERE THE HELL DID YOU PLACE YOUR PRIDE?!"
Nami, Luffy and Sanji blinked sadly and stopped their sobs.
Usopp wiped his tears away and said firmly, "Zoro is right. WE HAVE TO SHOW THEM THE TRUE WINNING SPIRIT OF THE MUGIWARA PIRATES!"
"Yeah! To our pride!" Chopper and Brook added.
"LET'S BEAR OUR CONVICTION in the name of our flag!" Franky exclaimed in rage.
"Minna…," Nami cried and wiped her tears.
Luffy fixed his hat and screamed, "YOSHA! WE, THE STRAWHAT PIRATES WILL WIN THIS GAME AND NO ONE CAN STOP US FROM SAILING AGAIN!"
"YEAH!"
"FOR THE LOVE OF ADVENTURE!" Luffy yelled some more.
"AYE AYE CAPTAIN!" the strawhats replied.
Adventure.. . I think that's the way it is.. ., Nami thought and smiled awkwardly.
"Okay, now Luffy, Sanji and Zoro sign here to seal your agreement with the Kuja Pirates." Caroline added, "Also, Nami and Robin sign your contract here with the Galley La Pirates."
The Monster Trio, Nami and Robin cried a tear and signed shakily the contracts.
"YOSHA!" the Gorgon sisters and Paulie rejoiced.
"Heh! As if you're going to win," Zoro insulted.
The three groups brought a very scorching and breath-taking atmosphere. Each group was determined to win the game to death.
"So see ya tomorrow. Enjoy the night!" Caroline said and left.
~~~~~0~~~~~
The first day of the game came. The three teams were sleeping soundly when suddenly Caroline gave the wake up call.
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT SOUND!" Zoro who was still half-asleep shouted.
"I do not know Zoro but we will win the game," Luffy murmured and snored again.
"Definitely because your Captain Usopp will save you all," Usopp giggled and slept back.
"JUST WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING YOU SHITTY IDIOTS?!" Sanji thundered while holding his spatula.
Luffy woke up totally after smelling what Sanji was cooking. Then he drooled and yelled, "SANJI! MESHI!"
"THAT'S WHAT I AM DOING NOW!" Sanji replied angrily and knocked the head of his captain, "BAKA!"
Franky and Brook yawned together while watching the comical event between Sanji and Luffy.
"Tch, Luffy. You are really good at ruining people's moods," Sanji mumbled, "Whoahh! Nami-swaan and Robin-chan! Here I cooked both of you breakfast!"
"Oi, how about us?" Usopp muttered.
"Arigato Sanji-kun," Nami smiled flatly.
"Nami," Chopper said sweetly and handed Nami's breakfast to her.
"Arigato," Nami muttered and smiled.
Kya! Chopper! I should be the one giving that to Mellorine.., Sanji thought.
"Thank you Chopper," Robin smiled.
And now Robin-chan…, Sanji cried.
Suddenly Boa Hancok and her two sisters came.
Sanji returned to his love-love aura and exclaimed, "Ohayo! Snake Princess Boa Hancock! Please accept this simple gift―"
Hancock smiled and handed the food to Marigold.
"Marigold, that's how this cook loved you so much.."
"Kyaaaa! Arigato Sanji-kun!" Marigold flushed and ate happily.
The once vibrant aura of the cook turned so dark and gloomy. Then he thought sadly, Why does love hate me like this..? Why?
"Luffy," Boa Hancock murmured sweetly.
Everybody except Sanji turned their eyes to Hancock. Robin observed again the angry navigator who was holding the spoon with rage.
"Are you still angry with me?" the snake princess asked.
"Hmmm," Luffy mumbled and continued, "Nope, Shishishishi."
Boa Hancock fell in love some more. Her knees were trembling with so much joy and love. Then Luffy continued, "Each one of us has the freedom to get whatever we want. Hancock, you have your reasons…"
"Ahhh.. Luffy… I am falling deeper and deeper in love with you.."
Nami was drawn further with jealousy. She was finally about to react when Luffy muttered, "BUT WE WILL NEVER LOSE…"
Hancock's love love eyes turned to rage. She couldn't believe that Luffy was going to hurt her that far.
"I will never leave all my nakama. We will still find One Piece and reach our own dreams! As for me, I will definitely become the Pirate King!"
Nami cried a tear silently when Chopper noticed her.
"Nami, are you crying?"
"Heh?! No! No I'm not!" Nami denied, "A dust get into my eyes, that's all! Ahahaha!"
"Oh, I see," Chopper smiled and said happily, "That idiot Luffy, he thought he can make us happy like that?! Tch. Never in his dreams.!"
Nami smiled and thought, Chopper, you really suck at hiding your true feelings…
Boa Hancock was terribly hurt so she ran away crying.
"MONKEY D. LUFFY!" Sandersonia yelled, "Don't get so cocky just because you are the only man that our sister had loved so much!"
"We will win this game and let you suffer the same pain that you are inflicting to her! Remember that!" Marigold added.
The two of them followed their depressed sister.
"What's wrong with them?" Luffy wondered, "Did I say something bad?!"
Robin giggled. Zoro grinned and said, "That's how a brilliant and true man thinks!"
"YOHOHOHOHOHO!" Brook rejoiced and muttered, "Arigato.. Luffy-san"
"THAT'S THE SUUUPPPPPEEERRRR Strawhat Family!," Franky bellowed.
Luffy laughed together with them.
"Oi, Sanji-kun..," Usopp narrowed his eyes to the crying cook, "I wondered if you are really in our side…"
"HEH?!" Sanji reacted, "Did you see how Luffy hurt the snake princess' feelings?! HUH?!"
"HMmmm..," Usopp rubbed his chin and said, "It's beyond calculation. But then, we both know that Luffy do not have the slightest idea about love. He's hopelessly numb and dumb."
Sanji covered his face and cried, "Numb and dumb.. and yet I cannot believe that the most beautiful woman in the entire world would fall in love to this numb and dumb captain…."
Nami heard what Usopp and Sanji had been talking. They just made her wondered about it too.
Usopp sighed and said, "Maybe it's just the world is really full of mysteries and surprises…"
Sanji lit his cigarette and agreed.
Suddenly Caroline interrupted, "So Mugiwara Pirates, are you all set? For your information, it's been 10 minutes already since the Galley La left in their first destination."
"GYAAAAAAA! WHY DID YOU NOT TELL US EARLIER!" the strawhats panicked.
"As for the Kuja, they finally arrived now in their second destination…"
"NYAAAAAA! IMPOSSIBLE! We were still talking with them few minutes ago!"
"Enough with these stupid reactions and give us the instructions now!" Nami ordered angrily.
Caroline gave them the things that they needed.
"Here's the map. You are going to go here. This is your own first destination. You cannot go along with them because each team has its own routes."
Nami nodded and said, "Leave this to me! LET'S GO!"
"Before I forget," Caroline smirked, "This One-Stop Game Paradise is actually the exact opposite of the typical paradise that you may think of. Just be careful Strawhats…"
The okama laughed and vanished in thin air.
