The Copyist (One Piece & OC)

Chapter 73: The Crying Snail

Nami put a finger to her face in thought. "You're right, Robin. They were rather panicked. You should have seen Luffy's reaction. He almost forgot to ask the man we rescued for his cooking." Her voice still held traces of disbelief at the memory.

"So Miss Navigator, have you thought more about having finished your final tradition?"

Nami's eyes also gazed on me in interest. "Yeah, you mentioned maybe talking to us about another potential love interest too, right? Spell the deets!"

"What's taking you girls so long?" Lu asks, marching into the room. "AMA!" He yells as he stretches his arms to wrap around my torso. "You're awake!" His body snapped over to me, giving me a large hug.

"Sorry to worry you. I'm alright. In fact, I'm stronger than ever." I comment, utilizing my new ability to shrink into a five centimeter tall version of myself. In the process, I escaped Lu's entanglement of limbs he had on me.

I jumped onto his shoulder as he beamed at me.

"So cool!"

"Ama-swan!" A new figure joined us in the room. He must have heard Lu's shout. "My goddess is awake!" He cheered, spotting me on Lu's shoulder. He picked me up in his hands. "You're fun-sized now too!" He cooed.

"What are you yapping about, you damn cook." Zoro walked into the room with Chi on his head. He soon paused, seeing me in Sanji's hands.

"Oh, you're awake." He acknowledges. "Put her down, you pervy cook!" He snapped as Chi also sprung into action.

She jumped on Sanji's face, making him loosen his hold on me. However, he didn't drop me due to his morals of taking care of a lady. I jumped out of his hands, landing on the ground safely. Chi came up next to me, currently taller than me.

I hopped onto her back. "Onward my faithful steed!" I cheer.

She scampered around the room before reclaiming her spot on top of Greenie's head.

"Ehh! Why are you so tiny?!" Usopp bellowed as he and the rest waited outside the door.

"Huh? Didn't Greenie tell you? I copied Lily's devil fruit." I answer, jumping off Chi and returning to my regular height.

"Ow! Glad you're alright, Ama! Ow!" Franky struck his pose.

"Ama, are you feeling alright now?" Chopper questioned concerned.

I smile before patting his head twice. "Doing fine thanks to you and Sanji's effort, Doc. Thanks for the help." I smile.

"Don't think I want your thanks, you moron." Chopper responded, doing a happy noodle arm dance with a large grin.

"Anything for you Ama-swan!" Sanji interjects, giving me a large hug in the process.

"Oi!" Greenie snapped. "Let go of her!"

"Hey Sanji?" I call.

"Hm?" He happily hums still hugging me.

"Do you think you could make me something to eat? I'm rather hungry after not eating a real meal in a while."

"Of course! I'll get on it right away!" He beams, dashing off to the kitchen.

"I'll catch you guys in a bit. I'm going to shower and change clothes." I state, grabbing my things to freshen up.

After my relaxing shower, I felt like a new woman. All my muscles loosened up, which made moving around easier.

I went to the kitchen where everyone else was chilling. Sanji had already prepared my favorite type of tea as I waited for the meal.
