This is what happens when I start listening to random songs and when I get so frustrated with my writing style that this is created.
Disclaimer: I don't own One Piece.
Read on.
Wealth, fame, power.
"I'm not joking this time!" Luffy stood on a barrel with a small dagger in his little hand and his expression that of determination. "I've had enough! I'll prove it for you all to see!"
Everyone in the village were up and at it on this sunny day in Fushia Village. They either payed Luffy no mind and continued on with their lives, or they stopped to stare and chuckle and to see what the child would do next.
"Haha, go for it!" Shanks called, putting his fist up and clutching his straw hat. "Lets see what you're gonna do!"
"Luffy's gonna do something funny again!" One of the pirates grinned, putting his hands onto hips.
"Get on with it, Luffy." Benn Beckman called.
Luffy took the dagger and plunged it deep into the skin below his eye. The villagers and the pirates stood there gaping for a moment, before Shanks ran forward and brought his fist down onto his head.
"Idiot! What the hell are you doing?!"
Gol D. Roger, the king of the pirates, obtained this and everything else the
world had to offer. And his dying words drove countless souls to the seas.
"Gahaha! Drink, drink!"
"Sake, sake! Bring out more sake!"
"Idiot! That's my meat!"
"Shut up! It's mine now!"
"Yo, cut it out! To brawl while you're drunk is shameful!"
"Ah." Luffy smiled, sitting on a stool in a certain bar around a certain group of merry pirates. He had a bandage under his eye, and while it would heal it would also leave behind a scar. "It didn't hurt one bit!"
"Liar!" Shanks pointed an accusing finger at him. "Don't do anything so stupid again!"
"I'm not afraid of pain at all!" Luffy threw up his hands and laughed. "Next time take me out to sea, Shanks! I wanna be a pirate too!"
"Ha!" Shanks chuckled. "You can't handle being a pirate! Not being able to swim is a pirate's greatest weakness!"
"As long as I stay on board the ship, I'll be fine!" Luffy replied. "Besides, my fighting is pretty good too! I've rigorously trained before! My punch is as strong as pistol fire!"
"Pistol?" Shanks put his cheek into the palm of his hand. "Wow...really? That's so cool."
"What kind of tone is that?!" He glared at Shanks.
"The most important thing is that you're still too young." Shanks continued. "Wait at least another ten years and I'll consider taking you out to sea."
"Darn it Shanks!" Luffy stomped his foot. "Let me tell you something! I'm not a little kid anymore!"
"Awe, don't be mad." Shanks grinned and handed him a glass of orange juice. "Here. Drink some juice."
"Thanks!" Luffy happily took the glass of orange juice and drank it.
"You really are a kid!" Shanks and the rest of the pirates burst into laughter. "How funny!" Shanks cried, slapping his hand onto the bar table a few times.
"What a dirty trick!" Luffy yelled, glaring at everyone in the bar. A baby snail with a tiny shell sat on the stool beside Luffy, curled up into a little ball and watching the pirates laugh at Luffy as he continued to try to act like a grown up.
"You want my treasure? You can have it! I left everything I gathered together in one place. Now you just have to find it! "
"Thanks Luffy...Makino told me about everything." Shanks grinned, trying his best to keep both himself and Luffy afloat in the water. "Thanks for sticking up for us. And hey...don't cry. You're a man now, right?"
"But Shanks..." Luffy sobbed, clutching Shanks shirt and wetting it with both his tears and the ocean water. "Shanks...your arm!"
Shanks arm had been bitten off by the sea monster from earlier, but he payed it no mind. "It's nothing. It's just an arm."
Luffy's lower lip was quivering and he shut his eyes, refusing to stare at what Shanks had lost because of him.
"S-S-SHANKS!"
These words lured men to the Grand Line, pursuing dreams greater than they ever dared to imagine. This is the time known as the great pirate era.
"You're really leaving this time?" Luffy asked, staring up at Shanks with wide eyes.
"Yep." Shanks sighed. "We've stayed here long enough. It's about time we set sail. Are you upset?"
"Yeah.." Luffy frowned for a moment. "But I won't ask you to take me with you anymore. I'll become a pirate by myself!"
"Heh. I wouldn't take you even if you begged!" He stuck his tongue out. "You don't have what it takes to become a pirate!"
"Yes I do!" Luffy stomped his foot in agitation, catching the attention of all the pirates around him. "One day I'll find myself a pirate crew as strong as yours! And then I'll find the world's biggest treasure! And I'll become King of the Pirates!"
"Oh? You want to be bigger than us huh?" Shanks took off his straw hat and placed it onto Luffy's head. "Then this hat is my gift to you. This is my favorite hat you know...when you become pirate king, give that hat back to me."
Shanks hopped onto his ship, with his crewmates and they all waved goodbye as they began sailing away.
Makino put her hands on Luffy's shoulder and giggled when the baby snail from earlier snuggled up against her cheek.
Come on board and bring along,
All your hopes and dreams!
"Let's introduce the crew!" Nami smiled at Moshi before she picked him up and began walking. "There's me, the oh so cunning navigator!" She winked. "I'm a total cutie!"
She pointed the den den mushi at Zoro, who was lazily leaning against the mast of the ship. "Here's Mr Frowns a Lot! Oh kami, I hope I never have to wake up to that face!"
Zoro deadpanned. "You'd think that she would be hugging and crying against me after having just helped save her village.." He muttered sarcastically.
"I am thankful." She smiled fondly. "Don't get so worked up, Zoro."
Zoro only smirked in reply. "Tch."
"Here's Long Nose!" She pointed Moshi at Usopp, who was just walking out of the boy's room.
"Long Nose? Pfft, actually I'm Captain Usopp!" He stuck his nose into the air and crossed his arms over his chest proudly. "I've got a whole fleet of men under me, and I'm known as a brave warrior of the sea! And-"
"Moving on..." Nami turned and walked away from him.
"Hey!" Usopp sweatdropped.
"Here's Sanji-Kun!" Nami walked into the small kitchen and smiled at Sanji, who danced in delight at her presence (though his face was shadowed by his blonde hair). "He's an amazing cook! He makes the best dishes!"
"NAMI-SWAAAAAN~!" Sanji twirled around. "I'm going to make a delicious drink just for you!"
"Thank you." Nami giggled before leaving the small kitchen and leaving Sanji to think about the many ways he would woe his precious Nami-Swan.
"And finally, we have the future pirate king himself." Nami's wide smile turned soft as she watched Luffy sit on his special place, which was on the Going Merry's head. The rubber man turned and smiled widely at Moshi, holding up two fingers.
"Shishishi...I'm on my way to becoming Pirate King, Shanks!"
Together we will find everything
That we're looking for!
"Oiiii! Shanks! Yasopp! Ace! Minna! Look at meee!" Monkey D Luffy stuck his face into the recorder, a large smile on his silly face. "Guess what? C'mon, guess!" The rubber man tilted his head to the side and frowned when no one responded. "How come you guys aren't responding..oh wait you haven't seen this yet...shishishi!"
Luffy was on a tiny dinghy, having just left his small village hours ago setting sail to become the King of the Pirates. The skies behind him were a light blue and the ocean below him was deep abyss of blueish greenish colors with a tiny fish flying to the surface here and there. "I've set sail! Shishishi! I'm gonna become King of the Pirates and there's nothing you can do about that Shanks!"
He pointed the camera upward then downward before he leaned back in the small dinghy and smiled his idiotic smile. "I don't have a pirate crew yet but I'll gather one soon! Just you watc- W-Woa-" Luffy yelped in surprise before smiling at the fact that the waters around him were now spinning and that the boat was going around in circles. "Looks like we'll have to continue this conversation later!"
One Piece!
"To our new ship!" Nami shouted, raising her drink up.
"To my new friends!" Usopp yelled, holding up his own drink.
"To sake! Delicious sake! Nature's freshest water!" Zoro called out, holding his drink to his lips.
"And to the many adventures ahead of us! Shishishi!" Luffy concluded, smiling that idiotic smile.
"YEAH!"
Compass left behind...
It'll only slow us down.
"Hahaha! Hey Shanks!" Luffy smiled widely. "I dunno how I lost it but i'm glad that I got it back- Nami!" Luffy frowned when the orange haired woman took the den den mushi from him, and pointed it away from Luffy and towards her and Zoro. "No one wants to look at a recording of you with food all over your face."
The three were, once again, sitting in a small booth inside a small cafe like restaurant. Nami and Zoro sported a few new cuts and bruises, but were overall fine. It was obvious to whoever was viewing that the trio must have been through a lot on this day.
"Oi." Zoro placed his elbow onto the table and put his cheek into the palm of his hand. "We've had our meal..and we've done all we need to do..so should we get going?"
"Ne, you're right Zoro!" Luffy stretched before leaning back in his seat.
"Wait." Zoro frowned deeply. "I just need...one more cup of sake...or five.."
"You're gonna die from alcohol poisoning one day." Nami stated, rolling her eyes, but smiling nonetheless. "Stupid."
"Who're you calling stupid?" Zoro glared at her and Nami, in return, stuck out her tongue at him. "The stupidest one at this table of course!"
"That would be this one." Zoro replied, pulling at Luffy's rubber cheeks. "But even I have to admit that he's a genius when it comes to battles."
Your heart will be your guide,
Raise the sails and take the helm.
"So you're really heading out to sea, Usopp-San?" Kaya asked.
"Yeah, of course! I'm gonna become a brave warrior of the sea, Kaya! It's my dream!" Usopp replied, leaning against his large bag. "And when I come back I can tell you all about all the adventures I have been on and all the challenges that I've faced!"
The blonde haired beauty laughed behind her hand. "Okay, Usopp-San.."
"Anyway." Usopp smiled at the den den mushi. "This is goodbye to that camcorder and to you guys! Thanks again for helping me save my village, Luffy. Maybe one day we'll meet on the dangerous seas!"
"The hell are you going on about?" Zoro asked, crossing his arms. "Hurry up and get on board!"
"Yeah come on, Usopp!" Nami leaned against the railing beside Luffy. "We don't have all day!"
"You're our nakama now, right?" Luffy more so stated then asked. "And come on, the den den mushi is about to shut off."
Usopp stared up at the trio. Nami was giving him a closed eyed smile, and Zoro was standing there with his arms crossed over his chest and with a hint of a smirk on his face. And finally there was Luffy, who was giving him the biggest and most idiotic grin he had ever seen. These were the people who had helped him save his village. They were the people who stepped in and fought to the best of their ability in order to protect what he cherished the most. They were the people who were offering to help him fulfill his dream of becoming a brave warrior of the sea. They were his new nakama. The long nosed male laughed a little, before he jumped onto the ship with a grin of his own.
"Does this mean I get to be captain?!"
"NO WAY!" Luffy frowned childishly. "I'm the captain!"
"But I'm brave Captain Usopp!"
"Nope! I'm the King of the Pirates, Monkey D Luffy!"
That legendary place,
That the end of the map reveals!
"Look! Look, look look minna!" Luffy shoved his wanted poster into Moshi's face. "Looks like we are wanted men now! It says 30 million beli!" And there Luffy was, smiling his strange smile in the picture and waving his hand.
"Once again, you fail to understand the gravity of your situation.." Nami's head dropped. "You do realize that this means your life is at risk? With that bounty, I'm sure the Marine HQ as well as other strong bounty hunters will come after you.."
"Look! My picture is here for the whole world to see!" Usopp pointed at himself...or rather the back of his head in the bounty photo. "I might be famous!"
"That's just the back of your head." Sanji rolled his eyes.
"Don't be jealous now!" Usopp grinned. "Once we become more infamous we might all get one!"
"...With this, we can't afford to just loiter around in East Blue much longer..." Nami muttered, putting her finger on her chin in thought.
"Alright men! Let's head to the Grand Line!" Luffy yelled.
"Aye aye!" Sanji and Usopp yelled, fist pumping happily.
It's only legendary,
Till someone proves it real.
"I've got two members of my crew now! Isn't that awesome, minna?!" Luffy grinned and pointed the camcorder upwards. There was the jolly roger for Captain Buggy blowing harshly in the wind. "We stole this small boat from some guy named Buggy! He says that you and him used to butt heads as enemies, Shanks! Shishishi!"
"You guys sure are boneheads.." Nami commented, crossing her arms. She was seated on a small boat beside them and her treasure bags were seated close to her, with her weapon in her hand, as if she were afraid that the two would steal the bags the first chance they got.
Luffy ignored her comment and brought his hat up to the den den mushi. "Nami fixed my hat for me!" Luffy waved the hat happily. "See? She's nice even if she can be scary sometimes!"
"Oi Luffy." Zoro yawned. "You're too loud. I'm trying to sleep."
"I think you've had more than enough sleep." Nami deadpanned.
Through it all,
Through all the troubled time..
"Lets go." Sanji said, standing in front of Luffy with a small smile on his face.
"Just like that?" Luffy tilted his head to the side. "What about goodbyes?"
"Its fine." Sanji replied. "There's no need."
"Oi Sanji." Chef Zeff called, making the curly eyebrowed cook freeze. "...Don't catch a cold.." He said, a small smile on his face.
Sanji's eyes began to well with tears, his emotional barrier breaking. He turned around to face the man who took care of him for so long. "O-OWNER ZEFF!"
Sanji got onto his hands and knees and bowed. "I'm eternally grateful to you, for taking care of me for so damn long! I shall never forget, for the rest of my life... the debt I owe to you for saving my life!"
All around Sanji the cooks were bursting into tears at Sanji's declaration.
"Damn you Sanji, you bastard!"
"We're gonna miss you!"
"You're making us cry, dammit!"
"Damn idiots..." Zeff muttered, a few tears making their way down his own cheeks. "Real men should say their goodbyes in silence..."
"Lets meet again one day!" Sanji cried. "You...you good for nothing bastards!"
"Alright!" Luffy shouted. "Let's set sail!"
Through the heartache..
And through the pain.
"WAIT, EVERYONE!" Nami suddenly appeared from behind, panting lightly.
"Nami..?" Nojiko muttered, staring at her little sister.
"Guys, don't worry about it! Put down those weapons!" Nami began walking towards the group. "Please, just wait a little more! Ha...I'll try my best again!" Nami smiled widely. "I promise I'll raise enough money once again! It should be easier this time! So please, I ask that you-" Nami was cut off when Genzo suddenly stepped forward and hugged her.
"That's enough, Nami. You know that doing such a thing would be futile. You've carried all of our hopes on your shoulders for a long time.." Genzo whispered. "You've fought for a long time. I know that working with them...must have been worse than being stabbed by a thousand knives. You have fought well. But now...you can leave this village."
"What..?" Nami's eyes were starting to water but she kept the tears in- she wasn't done fighting yet. "B-"
"Nami." Nojiko cut her off. "You're smart, and you've got what it takes to live. And you have a dream to fulfill."
"Nojiko..." Nami pulled out a small dagger. "No! Everyone stop! I don't want to see anyone get hurt by those fishmen! You'll...you'll all die!"
"We know." Genzo replied. "...Now move out of the way, Nami! Let's go, everyone!"
Everyone marched past Nami with anger evident in their eyes. They were marching to their deaths, but it didn't matter. They were going to die for Nami.
"Nami.." Nojiko whispered as she marched past. "Live...okay?"
And then they were gone. Nami sunk to her knees, clutching her arm. The female was shaking as she stared at the tattoo of the Arlong Pirates on her arm. "Arlong..." She shakily whispered.
The den den mushi crawled away from Luffy and towards Nami. He wanted to help comfort her. He wanted to see her smile again. He hated to see her look so broken. The snail didn't want any of his new friends to look broken.
Nami growled suddenly, glaring at the Arlong Pirates tattoo on her arm. She suddenly lifted up her dagger and stabbed it.
"Arlong!" She growled. "Arlong." She continued to stab her arm, not caring about the blood oozing out of her. "Arlong! Arlong!" She huffed in rage and continuously stabbed herself. "Arlong! ARLONG! AR-"
Her arm stopped mid air as Luffy stood before her with his fingers wrapped around her wrist.
"Luffy.." Nami whispered. "What do you want?! You don't know anything about this island!"
"Ah. I don't."
"This has nothing to do with you...didn't I tell you to leave?!"
"Yeah. You did."
"Leave!" She began to throw sand at him, her whole body trembling. "Leave...leave...leave...leave...leave..."
Nami's tears fell quickly. All those years of holding back, all those years of standing strong, all those years came collapsing around her. She put her hand to her mouth as the tears fell faster, and her nose began to run with snot. "Luffy..." She whispered. She turned to him with red eyes and a trembling physique.
"Help me..."
"..." Luffy took off his hat and placed it onto Nami's head. The rubber male turned away from her and took a deep breath.
"OF COURSE I WILL!" He shouted, throwing his hands up into the air.
Know that I willbe there to stand by you!
Just like I know you'll stand by me!
"Luffy!" Nami began to rush towards the rubble, but was held back by Johnny and Yosaku.
"Brother..." Johnny muttered.
"A-Arlong Park is destroyed..?"
"Which one of them won?!"
"Just what the hell happened in there?!"
Usopp scurried over to Nami's side and they both shared glances of worry.
And suddenly, from the wreckage, a tall figure stood up with blood running down his arms, his fists clenched, and his black hair messier than usual.
"Luffy!" Nami, Usopp, Yosaku, and Johnny cried in unison.
Luffy took a deep breath before speaking once more.
"Nami! You're my crewmate- You're my nakama! Got it?!"
Nami could feel the wind blowing her hair around as his words reached her ears. Tears began to spill down her cheeks, and this time they weren't tears of sadness. They were tears of joy.
"G-Got it!" She replied, wiping away her tears with her wrists.
So come on board and bring along,
All your hopes and dreams!
"Really, what was that idiotic warlord thinking..." Mr 0 blew on his cigar even more. "Why didn't out transponder snails pick up anything of importance? All of these videos show nothing but how idiotic some pirates are and how weak they are. Watch them die before they even make it here, to the Grand Line, Miss All Sunday."
Miss All Sunday chuckled. "That may be the case." She tipped her hat down. "But they seem like an amusing bunch. I'd hate to see them die so easily..."
"Turn it off." Mr 0 rolled his eyes. "I don't want to see anymore of this absurdity."
"As you wish~." The mysterious raven haired woman swiftly shut off the den den mushi.
Together we will find everything
That we're looking for!
"Dracule Mihawk was spotted hanging around a bunch of pirates again."
"Why must this concern any of us? He is a warlord and free to do whatever he pleases, so long as he does not betray us." A tall man with short black hair and icy black eyes stated, arching an eyebrow. He was drinking from a tall glass of ice cold water...the water being turned to ice by him. "Besides..he's always hanging around pirates. He picks them off, however many he can."
"True, True." The male beside him nodded. "You are correct. However...he did not pick off these pirates like he usually would.." The man crossed a his longs legs, the dark yellow of his suit contrasting with his white admiral coat. "But you should watch these videos that our den den mushi specialists have tracked...a bunch of new pirates have entered this era and are trying to make a name for themselves."
"Videos?" The man with the cold glass of water in his hands raised an eyebrow. "What is the name of the pirate in these videos?"
"Luffy."
"Luffy?" The icy male scratched his head. "That name sort of sounds familiar..."
"Who cares?" A third male stated, crossing his legs and arms. His fists burned a dark red, as if they were made of molten lava, and his eyes also seemingly burned with anger. "Just let them be. As long as the pirate doesn't enter the Grand Line and cause mayhem he is of no importance to us.
The man with the cold glass of water in his hands grunted in agreement.
Yellow suit shrugged. "I suppose."
There is always room for you..
"Heh. Monkey...D...Luffy eh?" An old man with long silverish hair chuckled, pushing his glasses up. "Reminds me of a certain someone.."
He closed his eyes then, a smile on his face. "Mihawk...good on ya. You let that boy and his crew live. That was a good decision. Or maybe it was a bad one...it could be a mixture of both.."
"Hes got a long way to go if he thinks he can take Roger's title of Pirate King." The old man smirked. "But that kid..you can see it in his eyes..."
"He has the Will of D."
If you wanna be my friend..
"Luffy." Shanks grinned, putting his hand on his precious straw hat. Behind him stood Benn Beckman, Lucky Roo, Yasopp, and the rest of his crew. Makino was also there, giving him a cheery smile alongside the mayor of Fushia Village. Ace was also there, with his hand on his hat and a wide smile.
"Zoro." Koshiro stood there with an expression that was difficult to read. Beside him was Kuina, holding up a sword and smiling happily. The rest of the children from the dojo also stood there, each with goofy smiles on their faces.
"Nami." Bellemere had a cigarette in her mouth and was smiling proudly, one hand on her hip and the other holding a fresh tangerine. Beside her stood Nojiko, with her arms behind her back and a mischievous smile on her full lips. Genzo was also there, his signature pinwheel on his hat and his arms crossed over his chest.
"Usopp." Yasopp held up his gun and smirked, one arm happily wrapped around the waist of Bacchina- Usopp's mother. Kaya also stood there, giving him a closed eye smile and politely waving. The three boys in his village held up wooden swords and smiled proudly.
"Sanji." Zeff smirked, his hands on his hips. Behind him stood the rest of the cooks, each of them holding up various kitchen utensils.
We are..
"Hey, I see an island!" Zoro called.
Nami picked up Moshi and everyone
walked towards the railing where Zoro was standing. Indeed there was an island, and indeed they were approaching it.
"That island is proof that we are close to the Grand Line." Nami stated. "On that island, there's an infamous town called Lougetown. It's also known as the twin of the beginning and the end. It's the birthplace of the former pirate King Roger...as well as his execution spot..."
"So that's where the former pirate king died..." Luffy stared at the island in wonder.
"Shall we head there?" Nami asked, tucking a strand of tangerine coloured orange hair behind her ear.
"Yosh! To Lougetown we go!" Luffy yelled, pointing towards the town with a huge smile on his face.
We are...
"Ne, I'm really happy!" Luffy smiled at Moshi, the wind blowing his jet black locks around wildly. The two were perched on Merry's head, enjoying the beautiful view of the sun setting in the sky- it's orange-red color contrasting beautifully against the deep, dark blue abyss that was the sea.
"I'm really going on an adventure.." Luffy stated, pulling his knees up to his chest. "I'm really on my way to becoming Pirate King."
Moshi smiled happily, bobbing his little head in happiness. His body was no longer the pale pale white it used to be- it was shining a little, as if it was slowly turning into a silverish color.
"I've already gathered plenty of strong crewmates." Luffy continued. "Zoro, my first mate... he's really strong! He's great with swords, though he's no fun at times. And who knows? He might even defeat that one guy, Mihawk, one day."
Luffy closed his eyes and continued to smile. "There's Nami...she's my navigator. And she's probably better than you, Benn Beckman!" Luffy stuck his tongue out at the camcorder and laughed. "She's really smart, and a really good person. But she likes to steal my wallet a lot...oh well, shishishi."
Luffy opened his eyes once more and smiled fondly. "Usopp is so much fun to be around. He says really funny things, and I can't believe he's related to you Yasopp. Your noses look nothing alike!"
Luffy yawned loudly, stretching his long arms and feet. "There's our cook, Sanji, who prefers to keep his face hidden from the camcorder. He's shy around the camera. But he's an amazing cook! You've gotta try his food one day!"
"Heh." Luffy put his hand onto his hat and shook his head. "This is my crew. These people...they are my nakama. We've already begun our journey, here in the East Blue. And we're on our way to the Grand Line..."
"Just you wait, Shanks...Ace...Minna...I'm gonna be Pirate King soon. Shishishi!"
On the cruise!
"Twin Cape is located at the bottom of Reverse Mountain, at the exit that leads into the Grand Line. The area is located precisely where the Red Line and the Grand Line meet. From here, sailors can choose one of the seven routes of the Grand Line by waiting for the Log Pose to set on the desired one."
"Everyone! I'm here to say goodbye! I... I CANNOT GO WITH YOU! Thank you for everything! I want to go adventuring with you some more, but I can't! Because... I LOVE MY COUNTRY! ...That's why I can't! I will stay here! But if we ever meet again...WILL YOU CALL ME A FRIEND ONCE MORE?!
"I'm sorry...I wanted to bring everyone just a little farther. But I was happy. You always treated me well..thank you! I was always so happy because of you!"
"Just existing isn't a crime!"
"Where is his will to live? It's gone, just as his strength and mind. Drop it. Stop asking nosy questions. You're a questionable character yourself."
"You cannot defy a god."
WE ARE!
Sanji put his foot onto the barrel.
"To find the All Blue!"
Zoro put his foot onto the barrel and smirked.
"To become the greatest swordsman."
Luffy put his sandaled foot onto the barrel and smiled his strange little smile.
"To become Pirate King!"
Nami put her foot onto the barrel, her small feet contrasting greatly with the rest of the men's large feet.
"To draw a map of the world!"
Finally Usopp placed his foot onto the barrel and smiled proudly, looking at his new friends.
"T-T-To become a brave warrior of the sea!"
Moshi only happily shook his entire body, his teal eyes glistening in happiness. One could tell that he really was growing- he was slightly bigger and his skin was a more silverish color.
"To being with them forever.." The snail thought to himself.
The East Blue Five smiled at each other.
"To the Grand Line we go!"
You make it to the Grand Line, and you become Pirate King Luffy! We're all rooting for you! We are! *Dodges any tomatoes thrown my way*
Northwind123: Yes, they have finally reached the Grand Line! What adventures await? How many hours will I spend procrastinating? You'll find out!
Mello: Well...kinda?
Wolfy: I don't even know. Maybe? XD It would be a funny little joke wouldn't it? To let this keep happening..poor Moshi.
LuckyLucy: Well, it amused me too!
Johnny Spectre: *Points accusing finger at you* We've had a lot of the same ideas so far! Don't you figure out what I'm planning!
hikari: Hmmm...big enough xD
Lammy: Thanks, hehe.
BlackRabbitAlice: Uh...yes? What even is this chapter to you guys?
: What a different thought. Hmm, I'll take that into consideration. Not exactly what I was thinking though. Hmm..
Good job to anyone who could figure out who stated the quotes at the bottom. Anyhow. Review, and the next chapter will be their Grand Line experience! Hopefully!
