AC: Hello and welcome for more one piece. We're here to celebrate our favorite fishman's birthday, Jinbe.
Dusk: Happy Birthday dude.
Eclipse: Happy Birthday.
AC: Happy Birthday now let's start the story shall we.
Clarity is walking around on Amazon Lily, looking at the scenery on this island, and watching critters do their own thing. As she enjoys the nature, her mind drifts to a specific fish man. Jinbe the man who helped her and Luffy throughout the prison, who rescues her twinkle star. Most of all, he was the one who have save Luffy when he was at his lowest. She is so grateful for him and all his help. Maybe she should reward him but with what?
The cat stops and hums, trying to think until she had an idea. She'll just give him a gift like she always does. A special gift for him plus it might become his b-day gift even though it's late.
With that in mind, Clarity grins before running to find the fishman.
Jinbe is sitting on the sand, watching the sea before it's time for him to go back to Fishman Island. He just wants to make sure that Luffy and Clarity are going to be fine before he left.
"Jinbe." Speaking of someone. Jinbe chuckles before turning his head to see Clarity running towards him.
"Clarity! How are you?" He asks as she stops in front of him. Clarity took a minute to breathe then she spoke.
"I'm good. Just enjoying the island is all." She smiles "how about you?"
"I'm fine. Relaxing before I leave for my home." She nods as she stares at the ocean. She'll never stop staring at the ocean or its beauty. It's very calming and transfixing as you watch the sea. She sighs, closing her eyes then open them.
"I love the sea." Jinbe raises an eyebrow.
"You do?"
"Yep. The sea is beautiful and calming, filled with wonderful creatures." She grins "make me want to dive right in and swim all day." Jinbe laughs.
"I thought you like flying or running through the forest?"
"Who said I don't?" They laughed. Once they calmed down, Clarity sighs and stay silent until she spoke "say Jinbe?" A hum "before you go… can I give you a gift?" Jinbe tilt his head in curiosity.
"Gift?" Clarity faces him, nodding her head.
"Yes. You see, I love giving gifts to people I care about. It's my way of saying how I cherish them or thank them." She then smiles "Especially on their special day." Jinbe blinked "so can I give you one?"
The fishman stares at the cat as she waits for his response. Soon a smile appears on his face before he nodded. Getting his approval, she smiles showing all her teeth. She then climbed in his lap and sat down before closing her eyes. Jinbe just stare at her, wondering what she's doing until suddenly, a small ball of light appeared in front of her. It slowly floats down and landed softly then it receded to reveal a dolphin statue.
Clarity opens her eyes and smiles. She looks up at Jinbe "ta-da."
"Wow." He said, picking up the statue, marveling at its beauty "Clarity, this is beautiful. Your powers know no bounds." Clarity chuckles sheepishly, a blush covering her cheeks.
"Aw shucks. That's not true, there's some limits but that's doesn't matter." She then smiles "I want to thank you for everything you did for us, and how grateful I am." She then looked away "I also want to give you this even though it way past that day but hey."
Jinbe raises an eyebrow "what day?"
"Your birthday." He blinked.
"How did you-"
"I know my ways." Jinbe laughs.
"You're one strange person, Clarity." He smiles "thank you for your gift. I'll cherish it on my way home." She nods as he put it in his kimono. He then starts to stand up making Clarity jumps off before stretching his limbs "well I got to go. I hope to see you and Luffy at Fishman Island." He said, walking to his destination along with Clarity.
"Can't wait for that. I want to see your home." He nods before waving to Luffy.
"I'm sure you'll love it and again thank you for the gift." Clarity grins at the fishman, chuckling in excitement.
"You're welcome."
"Long time no see, Jinbe." Said fishman laughs when he see the coral haired woman waving as she walks to him.
"Hello Clarity! I see you're doing well."
"I'm doing splendid." She admits. She hugs the man then pulled back "I'm happy to see you again."
"You too. I hope you enjoy the party." She chuckles.
"I did. It was very wonderful especially the music." Jinbe chuckles.
"I'm glad to hear that." It was quiet for a moment as they enjoy the calm atmosphere until she broke it.
"By the way, I want to give you something."
Jinbe crosses his arms and smirk, already know what she's planning "another gift perhaps?" Clarity smirks.
"Look at you. Already know me." They chuckled "but yes I came with gifts. Two gifts in fact and I know you will love it." The fishman raises an eyebrow, still smirking.
"Oh really? Well then show me these gifts." The woman nods before clapping her hands together. She then opens them to reveal a white seashell. She hands him the shell and wait till he take it before pulling back "this is wonderful, Clarity. Thank you for this." She smiles.
"You're welcome. Now ready for your second one." After he nodded, she claps her hands again then opens them to reveal purplish sand. Jinbe raises an eyebrow, wondering what that is for but before he say anything, Clarity blew on it. He coughs, waving it away until he opens his eyes and silently gasp. In front of them, miniature butterflies flew around them as he watches in complete awe. He was astounded from the display that he didn't notice Clarity's soft smile.
"You like it?" Jinbe looks at her then chuckles.
"Yes I do. These butterflies are magnificent." He lets one of the butterflies land on his finger and smiles "you never cease to amaze me, Clarity. Thank you for these gifts." She grins as a butterfly lands on her hair.
"You're welcome, Jinbe and happy birthday."
