Chapter 66: Octopus Fitters?! Yum!

Luffy popped up next to Camie. "So I gotta know.. How do you poop?" Sanji screamed at his cook, setting his leg's sight on a new target. Camie innocently began to answer the captain's question, but Sanji cut her off. The cook yelled with tears in his eyes. "SHE DOESN'T POOP!!"

Sanji and Luffy entered a kick n' dodge spat as the small starfish sulked in the corner about Camie forgetting him. "Oh yeah. Camie, is that your pet?" (Y/N) pointed over at the sulking starfish.

Luffy and Sanji stopped their fight, looking over at the starfish. The captain stretched his arm, grabbing the creature and pulled him between Camie and himself. "So uh. One question, Camie. What is this thing? Like uh, taking glove maybe?" Luffy poked the starfish's face, pointing at the creature.

"Oh! Oh no, this guy is my pet. His name is Pappag. He's a starfish and also my teacher." Camie quickly explained making Luffy question her words. Camie smiled up at the captain, confirming her 'teacher' statement as Luffy placed Pappag down.

"Is it normal for starfish to talk?" Nami asked her long nosed crew mate, Usopp quickly replied. "As normal as it is for your pet to be your teacher."

Pappag jumped on Sunny's upper railing deck, pulling out a white ukelele from no where. "I let her take me in. We have our reasons." The starfish stung his ukulele, singing. "Camie~ She feeds me clams~ What can I say, I am what I am~~"

"That's your pet food?" Nami innocently questioned the starfish, but Pappag started playing his ukulele and singing again.

Everyone ignored the pet to listen to Camie talk about her where her t-shirt came from and explained that Pappag was the lead designer for a brand named Criminal, a popular fashion label on Fish-Man Island. (Y/N) looked up at the sulking starfish once more as Luffy asked how he can talk. Pappag jumped up from the sudden attention. "I'm so glad you've asked! See, back when I was a kid, I was a little confused. I thought I was a human. But by the time I figured out I was a starfish, I already knew how to talk!"

"Wow. I didn't know talking worked like that." Luffy said back to the starfish.

Pagaya sighed, shaking his body like someone would shake their head. "The brain is a power thing, my friend. They say you can do anything you put your mind too."

"'Capt wouldn't know about that. He doesn't have a brain." (Y/N) snickered as Luffy irritatedly turned to her. "Hey! What is that supposed to mean?!"

"I think you know, Luffy." Usopp joined (Y/N)'s snickering.

Pappag spun back to the crew. "Anyway, whatever. I'm Pappag, the starfish. Up and coming fashion designer. Thanks for saving me! Seriously, you guys are the best!"

"We're lucky we met you. The truth is, we're a bit lost. Since you're from around here—" Nami was cut off by Luffy's screams.

"No, Nami! Octopus fritters first!" Luffy pouted making (Y/N) lightly giggle.

Camie smiled over at Luffy. "Right, I forgot. I won't charge you either. Hold on, let me call Hachi and we'll work out a meeting spot." Camie pulled out a small transponder snail. The crew stood in a few moments of silence until the snail was answered. "Hey! It's Camie. Are you doing okay, Hachi? Sorry I got kinda lost. So where are you right now?"

"Oh. So it's Camie, is it?" A voice spoke through the snail followed by menacing laughter. Camie called out for her friend once more, but the voice quickly spoke back. "You don't know who you're talking to. This ain't your buddy, Hachi."

"WHATT?!! YOU'RE NOT HACHI?!!" Camie screamed in shocked fear.

"Of course not. Listen. This is Macro from the big dumb Macro Gang. Wait.. I should say that about myself." The snail spoke back.
