The Straw Hat Pirates were sailing for a few hours, and there was a massive storm. Everyone was panicking, trying to keep the sail furled, steering was almost impossible, and Luffy wasn't helping.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAH." He was laughing. Sitting on the Going Merry figurehead. "Isn't this great?!"

"No!" Everyone except Zoro and Tiara yelled. Zoro was napping on the deck, he ignored everyone trying to wake him up. Tiara was in her rowboat, also ignoring everyone.

Nami was pulling on the rope of the main sail. She and Usopp tried to tie it down, but the storm knocked it loose. Sanji couldn't help because he was cooking, Luffy's arms stretched instead of pulling the rope, and the whale killers were still tied up. They tried getting Zoro's help, but that predictably went terribly.

"I have to do it!" It was the only option.

"No, don't leave me!" Usopp was having trouble pulling the rope with help.

"If someone stronger doesn't tie the rope, the sail might tear!"

"Ok, you can go!" Nami let go of the rope. "AHH, wait I change my mind!" Usopp slid on the floor a few feet before stopping, his teeth gritted, and his muscles looked like they would burst.

"I believe in you, Usopp!" Nami walked to the rowboat and pushed it, but it didn't move at all. She kicked it, then doubled over in pain. "Why is it so heavy?!" She got a bucket of water and poured it on the sleeping girl, it didn't do anything. She got another bucket.

Chapter 4: Diamond Tiara Almost Drowns! Arrival At Whiskey Peak!

Dymon D. Ciara

I puked up water as I woke up. My lungs were on fire, it was annoying. "What happened?" The sun was out, it was a nice day. I was on a boat.

"I've failed as a man once again." Sanji knelt on the floor in front of me. It was a little awkward because I was on the floor too. "I should've taken you out of that boat sooner.

I got up with great pain in my chest. "Does this ship have a doctor? I am in so much pain."

"Nope!" Luffy picked his ear, smelled his pinkie, and licked it. This crew needed a doctor fast.

"Okay, this is fine. I just needed a little help." I looked around. Whale killers are too annoying, Usopp might be dead, Zoro was asleep, and Nami was angry at me. "Sanji!"

"Yes?" Sanji got on one knee with hearts in his eyes. "I'll do anything."

"Hit me in the stomach."

"Why?"

"Water in my lu-" I puked some out. "That'll keep happening until it runs out. Let's get most of it out now." I put my arms behind my back. "Come on, I won't fight back." He fell on all fours and started crying. "Uhh, hello, are you good?"

"That's not gonna work," said Usopp. "He'll never hit a woman."

"Even if it kills him?" He nodded. "Can anybody else punch-" A fist planted firmly into my gut. All my water got out of my lungs, along with the air. I was on the floor for a while. "Thank you," I could barely say.

"Luffy, you bastard!" Sanji kicked the rubber man in the head. "Thanks for the help." He got a cigarette and lit it. "Lunch will be ready soon." He walked to the kitchen. I was pretty hungry, I wanted spaghetti.

"Quick question." I got up and looked at Sandra. "Why is Sandra filled with water?"

"Nami filled it." Luffy was sitting on the floor, picking his nose.

"Wow, I'm here for two minutes and someone tries to kill me." I walked to Sandra, picked her up, and emptied her into the ocean. "I mean, at least wait until everyone else is asleep."

"First of all, I was trying to wake you up. Second, it was an emergency. And third, you were the only one asleep!" Nami was in my face. It had certain interesting features I couldn't ignore, my eyes were drawn to her lips.

I pointed at her upper lip. "You have a bit of a mustache." She punched me for that. Fair enough. "It's okay, I forgive you."

Nami sighed before walking away. She started ordering the others around and we kept sailing to Whiskey Peak.

Lunch was my favorite time of the day. It had all of my favorite foods, spaghetti, bread, pizza, anything and everything with carbs. On my old ship, we only had hard biscuits on voyages. We could only get good food on islands or from rival pirate ships, but those were few and far between. I used to fantasize about a restaurant on the ocean, but that was impossible. Now with Sanji as my chef, there were infinite possibilities.

"Hey, that was mine!" It was hectic, pushing, pulling, and even some biting. They were all vying for their cut of the food. I couldn't remember what it was, you either ate it immediately or lost your chance to eat it entirely.

"Damnit, Luffy," yelled Zoro as he lost another handful of whatever was on his plate.

"HGGMHGM this is good." Luffy was stuffing his face with as much as he could get his hands on. I was astonished. How could he eat so much and still be so skinny? I mean, I was also eating just as much as him, but I almost drowned so it was okay.

The rest of the crew was eating as well. Sanji even let the two whale killers in. They got some food, but not nearly as much as me or the rest of the crew. It was mostly because they were deeply disturbed by what they saw. I didn't blame them, we were not clean eaters.

We were going for a little while, then Nami suddenly stood up. She looked serious, with a mild scowl, nobody dared to speak. She walked outside.

"What's up with Nami?" I understood she was the navigator, but why the sudden mood shift?

"I know!" Luffy swallowed a large amount of food. His neck stretched so much it was wider than his head. I had to check if we had bleach, I needed to unsee that. "She has mystery powers."

"They're not mystery powers." Sanji so helpfully pointed out. "She is simply the world's best navigator and..." He degraded into a nonsensical spew of compliments for Nami. It didn't stop. I did get the gist of it.

"So mystery powers," I said blankly. Sanji was distracted so they all nodded in agreement.

"Everybody get your coats!" Nami kicked the door open. She was wearing a heavy winter coat. "It's getting cold."

I put my hand up. "Can I borrow one of yours?" That made a certain spark appear in her eye. It made me want to run far far away.

Good news, I got the coat. Bad news, it costs a million berries a night. That Nami is a vulture, I could've died and all she cared about was money.

At least I wasn't in the cold. My bandages didn't protect me against the cold in the slightest. So if I didn't get a coat, I'd be an icicle.

It was Winter for some reason, and we were all playing in the snow. I was in a snowman-building competition with Usopp and Luffy. I don't want to brag, but I was winning.

"Your snowman looks terrible," said Luffy. He was picking his nose.

"You're one to talk," I replied. His snowman was two balls and a few sticks. Mine was much better, it was a commentary on beauty. "I am a true artist."

"All you did was give it boobs," Usopp yelled at us. "Behold, the Snow Queen!" He gestured to a snowwoman sitting on a chair made of snow. She was nice-looking but was missing something.

"Snowman Punch!" Her head exploded. Luffy launched a stick from his snowman into it.

"The hell was that for!" Usopp kicked Luffy's snowman in the head. It exploded.

"Mr. Snowman! Noooo!" Luffy mourned for all of two seconds before returning to play in the snow.

I was much luckier. My beautiful snow-woman was still alive. We would have amazing adventures. Ciara and Mrs. Snow, nothing could stop us. Luffy fell on her, she was destroyed.

"Damnit Luffy!" I throw a snowball at him. This led to a snowball fight that lasted for several seconds.

Thunder shot out. It startled me enough not to notice the large snowball hitting my face. "Hey, wait!" I stopped the fight. "Don't you think the weather is being weird?" It was sunny, then snow, and suddenly thunder. None of it was making sense.

"Uh, no." Luffy started making another snowball.

"Ahhhh!" Nami suddenly screamed. She was inside but came out for some reason.

"What's wrong," asked Luffy.

"I'll protect you my sweet!" Sanji was also there.

"Make a 180-degree turn! We're going the wrong way!"

It went fast. The weather turned terrible. It started raining, the wind was fast, and we nearly died. I had to put the sail up and then steer the ship. It was pretty hard to avoid breaking the tiller.

We went for several hours. The weather cleared, the snow melted, and everyone was exhausted. They were lying on the floor. All except for me, I had years of experience on a ship in bad weather.

Zoro got up at that moment. I was surprised because I thought he fell overboard. He looked around and said, "Hey, the weather might be nice but that doesn't mean you should be lazy." Everyone reacted angrily, but I didn't care. It was funny. He looked at the whale killers. "What are you doing here?"

"You idiot," yelled the crown guy.

"We're taking them to their home on Whiskey Peak." Luffy was sitting on the railing. He also wasn't tired. That kid was a monster.

"Why are we doing that?"

"I dunno." That was his reason? If I had my way we'd feed them to the fishes. Not that I cared about the whale. I just thought it would be fun.

"Eh, it doesn't matter anyway." He crouched in front of them and put on a nice smile. "What are your names again? They seemed pretty familiar."

Nami punched Zoro in the head. "How dare you sleep while all of us work! You're lucky we didn't throw you out." He glared at her, which led to several more punches. "Everybody listen! I just realized why this place is called the Grand Line! My navigation skills are useless, but mark my words I'll guide us through this!"

"Isn't that a contradiction?" I put my hand up.

"Shut up! And how do you know that word?!" I felt hurt. Of course I knew a word with more than two syllables! Did she think I was stupid? "We're all going to be fine." She pointed to the front of the ship. "Besides, we're here."

It was foggy, but the shape of an island soon formed. All I could see were large cactuses. Or was it cacti? It didn't matter.

"This place looks weird," said Sanji.

"Those cactuses are huge," yelled Luffy.

"Thank you, but we're leaving." The whale killers were on the railing. "It's been a fun ride. Bye-bye, baby!" They jumped into the water and swam away.

"Those guys were weirdos," I said.

"You could say that again," said Usopp.

"Those guys were weirdos."

"You could say that again."

"Those guys are-"

Nami punched me. "Shut up!" Why'd she have to be so rude? I was human too.

"Hey, we're docking soon!" Luffy interrupted our important discussion.

We sailed into a river that led to the shore. It was still pretty foggy so we barely saw it. The others were talking about monsters. I neglected to mention that killed a sea king in one punch but that didn't matter.

The main thing we soon noticed was all the silhouettes. They kinda looked like people. Everyone on the ship was preparing for a fight. I was thinking about how those cactuses got so big.

Usopp had his slingshot ready. "I may have to fight monsters but I came prepared. Come at me, monsters, you can't defeat me." I wanted to see that guy fight. It would be so funny.

The fog cleared completely. There was a large crowd cheering. They were all saying, "Welcome to the Grand Line," "Welcome the Whiskey Peak." I was confused, wouldn't those whale killers tell them about us?

"Wait, they aren't monsters?" Usopp was using his goggles to look at them closer. As if they'll look less human up close.

"So many cute girls!" Sanji's eyes were hearts. I saw who he was looking at and I had to agree.

Luffy sat on the sheep's head and started greeting everyone on the island. "Hey! I'm the captain!"

I pushed his head down. "He means me! I'm the captain!" He pushed me back. We got a few punches from Nami for that.

We docked and got off the Going Merry. We soon met Igarappi, the mayor of Whiskey Peak. He had an annoying speech pattern of constantly going ma-ma-ma every few seconds. It was so awful I blocked it out of my brain forever.

At least he was welcoming. "It's my pleasure to have you in our town."

As the captain, I was in charge of speaking to him. "Yo, I'm Luffy." If I wasn't interrupted.

"And I'm Diamond Tiara. We're the 'captains' of our pirate crew." I winked, showing how I'm the one actually in charge. He winked back, he didn't get the signal.

It was clear Luffy didn't get it either. "Nice hair, the curls are cool." He did have weird hair, but I've seen weirder.

"Our town thrives in making liquor and music. Hospitality is our pride. We also make enough liquor to fill the world's oceans. Would you allow us to throw you a party so we could hear tales of your adventures?"

"Of course we will!" Me, Luffy, Usopp, and Sanji started jumping around in a huddle. All I could think of was the amazing possibilities of the party.
