The Straw Hat Pirates had set sail for Nami's island and were going to reach Cocoyashi Village later that day. Now, with the new cook on board, they were five, three of them who were staring at Luffy with disbelief and shock written in their faces. Luffy however, was relaxed and dare say amused. They were sitting in a circle, in the middle of it was a wooden crate and on top of it a Den Den Mushi. In the captain's face was en evil smirk as he had Shanks' number on his hand.

"Shishishi, this is gonna be so fun!" He shriked happily, and Zoro seemed to agree with him. The other three members looked disturbed by the thought of carelessly calling a Yonko, a Yonko for crying out loud!

"Luffyyy! Please reconsider!" Ussop pleaded, crying for real and Nami looked like she'd join him soon.

"Come on, Luffy. You can't just go around calling a shitty Yonko!" Sanji said, blowing smoke. And that was true, were it not for Luffy being pretty close to Akagami no Shanks. Not that the crew knew.

"Hey Luffy." Luffy turned at his swordsman and cocked an eyebrow.

"Yes?"

"How do you plan to start the conversation with Red Hair?" Zoro assumed that Luffy, being the future Pirate King, knew the importance of coming right to the point. But! There were the crewmembers that didn't know about them coming from future and just telling Shanks would be also telling them. And that went against Luffy's decision yesterday, so Zoro thought his captain was smart enough to find a way. Hoped, at least.

"Well, my dearest, greatest first mate," Luffy began, startling Zoro, who immediately grabbed one of his swords. Last time Luffy had called him that, they had winded up in the past.

"What are you planning?" Zoro demanded. Luffy snickered, but that was his way of telling him to be ready. Luffy leaned closer to Zoro, who lent Luffy his ear. Then, after Luffy whispering something, the crew found themselves staring as Zoro exploded in laughter and Luffy leaned back,still grinning. But now it seemed like he was trying to block a fit of laughter himself. Zoro on the other hand, continued laughing.

"Haha..Y-you're..goin-g..t-tt-o hahahaha!" Zoro couldn't even form a sentence now.

"Shshsh!" Luffy hushed him. "I'm going to call him now." Nami and Ussop were trying to stop him again, but he just hushed them too. But, before pushing the the last button of the number, Luffy pinched the left side of his upper neck, right where the vocal chords were. Then, he called.

For a moment, there was a tense silence, beside Zoro's brief snickers. Then, the Den den Mushi made a "clank" noise.

"Moshi Moshi?" Came the voice of the drunk red hair." Who are you and what do you want?"

It was then that Luffy talked, and his voice startled both Akagami and the crew (except Zoro who was starting to laugh again, but managed to hold it.)

Luffy, being rubber, could stretch his vocal chords, but in doing so he changes his voice. Practicing with Rayleigh, he learnt to impersonate every person he knew. And right now, he was talking in a voice the Straw Hats didn't recognize, but Akagami sure did.

"Shanks, you damn brat! Where the hell are you? I don't remember giving you permission to leave the ship! Insolent brat, and to think I let my favorite hat with you. Why is this young man wearing it?"

Shanks was speechless. The one on the other side of the snail, it sounded like...No way! That person died, two decades ago! But he knew of the straw hat, and that tone was definitely...What the hell was going on here?!

If you haven't realized it yet, Luffy had turned his voice into none other than Roger's, the Pirate King's.

"Ah..What the- Who the hell are you?!" Shanks growled, not at all amused. That unlike the swordsman who was clutching his stomach with a hand covering his mouth. Tears were in his eyes from laughing too much.

Luffy cocked an eyebrow."What do you mean, brat?" Roger's voice asked, and Luffy now was really thankful to Rayleigh for telling him all those stories of Roger's crew, including Shanks. Even if it was beginning to become difficult, as Luffy was trying hard not to laugh. "I'm your Captain, who else? Have you been drinking? I thought I told you that you're too young to drink much."

The crew were looking at Zoro for explanation, but he just signaled that he'd tell later. This was too good to be missed.

"I don't know who you are, but don't think you can get away with this! I will make you hold responsibilities for insulting my captain!" Hissed the voice. The background was now quiet, the cheering had stopped, the laughs and teaseing too. Now, they expected the stranger to surrender under the threat, but Luffy was too stubborn for his own good.

"What kind of responsibilities, brat? I think I've told you that being a pirate means to be free, and the Pirate King has the most freedom! How do you expect me to have such things as responsibilities? Guahahahaha!"

The crews, yes even Shanks', gaped openly.

'Pirate King?!' Is what they thought.

Shanks was again frozen. Those were the exact words Roger had told him. But it couldn't be.

Now, Luffy and Zoro couldn't hold anymore. They burst out laughing, startling Akagami once again. Really, the expression of his face (the snail did show the speaker's face after all.)was too much.

"Oh God Shanks, you should have seen your face!" Luffy managed out while laughing hard. The snail's eyes widened.

"Luffy?" Then his confusion turned to pure rage."You goddamned idiot! What the hell do you think you were doing?!"

Luffy only laughed, getting a death glare by the pissed snail,which made it funnier. The trio of the past were horrified at the fact that Red Hair Shanks knew their stupid captain and that Luffy had angered a Yonko. Mihawk was big, but this was...

"Oh, come on Shanks, it was just a little prank! I think Roger would have been proud!" Shanks noticed that Luffy talked like he had met Roger. Very few knew that Roger was in fact, a complete cheerful, selfish idiot that couldn't be found in all four seas. And that puzzled Shanks.

"How did you do it?" He asked simply, curiosity winning over rage." You never met captain Roger so how did you impersonate his voice? And how did you even change your voice?"

Luffy, having calmed down, took the mick and answered.

"I'm rubber, remember? No one said I couldn't stretch my vocal chords." Sanji looked at his new captain. "So that was it!"

Akagami noted that the kid hadn't answered the first question and it must have been obvious what he was thinking, cause Luffy added.

"Hawky will be there in a few days, weeks who knows? Either way, he'll explain everything."

Confusion reached Shanks before it hit him." Oh, you mean Hawk Eyes. He's involved? And if I ask how?"

Luffy shrugged and repeated." He will explain everything."

Shanks frowned, not liking the answer. "So I assume he gave you my number, which in itself is an incredible feat. And I can't wait to hear all about this little adventure of yours." That actually meant that if he didn't get answers, Luffy was in deep shit. The rubber man gulped, knowing he still stood no chance against Shanks, given as his body was untrained for his strength.

Knowing that, he simply nodded. Shanks sighed, really tired by the lame joke.

"So? What did you want? I doubt you just missed my voice, anchor." He teased a bit the last part. Really, nothing could get past Shanks' childishness, especially when Luffy was around.

"Firstly, I'm an anchor because of you! Secondly, I need a favor." The snail leaned closer, along with Luffy's crew. Even Zoro didn't know what his captain had in plan. Luffy grinned innocently.

"I want Whitebeard's number, if you would please." The shocked silence was truly fitting for that stupid, unexpected and impossible request. All, and I repeat, ALL those who called themselves pirates couldn't help their jaws hit the ground with a loud cursing.

"WHAT THE HELL LUFFY?!" Luffy looked at both the snail and his crew. "What did I say? It's not that hard! He just has to give me a number!" They stared at him, truly wondering if rubber was really the only thing his brain was made of. Zoro shook his head and sighed, turning to his captain.

"Luffy...I don't think there's another person in this world able to be on par with your stupidity." He stated, just like that. Short and Simple. The snail nodded.

"I agree. Sometimes I wonder if you and Captain are actually strongly connected." Luffy just titled his head. Had he said anything wrong?...
