Meeting Uncle Luffy… before he was Uncle Luffy.
Request from Simplewriting: Hey, I know you're sick, but I'd just like to make a little request. Could you have Edward or Umiko sent back in time or have them be kids and meet Luffy or Sabo (Without Luffy or Sabo knowing who they are)? I think that would be funny. Get better soon! Get a lot of rest. Bye!
Edward groaned rubbing the massive bump on his head, he looked around and couldn't see any of his family not his mother or fathers or baby sister. The sun was suddenly blocked out as a figure leant over him. Edward blinked a few times tying to adjust himself to the light, "Hey Kid," A familiar voice filled his ears, "You alright?"
"Uncle Luffy," The thirteen year old groaned.
"Luffy yeah, but I'm no one's uncle," The man above him scratched his head slightly in confusion, "As far as I know Ace hasn't got a baby."
Edward blinked a few more times before he adjusted to the light, it was his uncle Luffy leaning over him but he looked a lot younger. As young as the picture of his first ever bounty poster which his dad had hung in the division commander meeting room along with the others. Mum's first bounty poster right next to it, Dad spent the entire day explaining how people got their first bounty posters.
Luffy leant over the kid, the kid looked pretty beat he looked like Ace but without the freckles and he had bright silver eyes which he had seen in the bounty poster of a woman called Akiyama Megumi.
"LUFFY!" An angry female voice came from behind them, Edward recognised this as Cat Burglar Nami, his uncles navigator who was always so nice to him and Umiko… and his mother saving her Captains life she heard the woman state multiple times. "Who's this?"
"I don't know found the kid asleep on the floor… HEY I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!" Luffy yelled as he watched the orange hair womans hand form into a fist.
"Of course you didn't," She growled at him before kneeling down next to Edward, "You ok Kid?"
Edward nodded stunned slightly, Nami had short hair…. He had never seen her with short hair in his entire life he was getting confused.
"Can you speak…. Wait course you can," Luffy laughed, "I heard you say my name."
His dad was right his uncle can be a bit of a scatter brain at time, "I'm fine…. Just slipped that's all…. Must have hit my head..." Something caught his nose, scent of a barbeque actually, he took a deep sniff in, "Is that…. Barbeque chicken….?"
Nami sighed, "You have as good of nose as Luffy does kid. Would you like to have lunch with us?"
"But nami," Luffy whined. "What if he is a marine?"
"No marines are stupid, because of them mum had to leave my father for two years to keep me safe cause they wanted my family dead," Edward argued.
Nami grinned, "I don't think he is Luffy."
Luffy grinned and helped Edward to his feet, "Come on kid you will love Sanji's cooking it's the best in the entire six seas."
Edward smiled and laughed with his uncles crew, this was just before thriller bark before they met the skeleton brook who was one of Edwards favourite crew members. He partied with the grew all night, they were amazing even back then.
AN: No problem honestly throughout the day I've been feeling a lot better, just relaxing re reading Naruto today with my partner. But thank you all for the get well soons I am honestly feeling better, still a bit blocked up but I think I will be better in the morning. Thank you all again.
