Recap:

"Cheering?" You say in confusion. All of the people of the island are gathered, waving at the ship and cheering. "Welcome to the Grand Line!" one man shouts. "Welcome to our town, Whiskey Peak!" Usopp looks in confusion.

"We're being, welcomed?"

"What's going on?" Sanji mutters. The crew watches in awe, as they're being welcomed. "Pirates! Welcome to our town!"

"Hurray for the heroes of the sea!"

Sanji's eyes catch the several girls waving to them. "There's a lot of cute girls!" he says, hearts bulging out his eyes. Usopp takes the praise, waving to everyone proudly. "Maybe pirates are everyone's heroes after all!"

You frown, turning to Zoro "Does this seem right to you?" he shakes head. "No. Be on guard at all times," he mutters.

When the ship lands, the crew is met with a man with thick and long curls. He is wearing a suit, and has a saxophone. "Welco-" he starts to cough, trying to clear his throat. "Ma-ma-ma!" you sweat drop. "Welcome. My name is Igarappoi. I'm the mayor of Whiskey Peak."

"Oh, I'm Luffy. Nice to meet ya." Luffy points to the curls in his hair. "Pops, you went overboard in curling your hair!"

"Whiskey Peak is a town that thrives on making liquor and music. Hospitality is the pride of our town." he says. Your eyes narrow. There was no way a town could be this nice. You didn't trust this place one bit. "Would you allow us to throw a party for you so that we may hear your tales... *cough cough cough* ma-ma-ma! Your tales of adventure." he finishes.

"We'll be glad to!" Luffy, Sanji and Usopp say in unison. Meanwhile, you, Nami and Zoro just watch annoyed. "Three idiots.." Nami mutters. Nami goes to ask the mayor about the log pose. "Say, by the way, how long will it take for the log of this island to be stored?" "Log? Forget about such boring stuff." he says. "Please rest after such a long journey." He puts his hand on Nami's shoulder and goes to do the same with you, but you slap his hand away.

"Now everyone! Prepare for the party!" he shouts.

You didn't like this one bit. "Hey, Luffy?" Luffy turns to you. "Yeah Y/n?" he asks. "Can I stay back on the ship?" he frowns, making a pouty face. "Huh? Why? We're going to have a party!" he says.

"It's just that-" the mayor walks over to you, patting your head gently. "There's nothing to be afraid of! Relax! Have fun!" You go to protest more, but you knew it was no use. You sigh. "Fine. Let's go." And so the party began. There were people playing instruments as well as drinking.

You didn't like to drink, so you decided to sit down and watch the party. Usopp was telling his stories about the "brave" Captain Usopp. "Then, I said with utter coolness, 'Sea Kings, don't touch my friends!'" The girls were swooning over him. "Oh! Captain Usopp!" they cried. "Well, regarding the Calm Belt, even I trembled a bit though. A tremble of excitement of course!"

"Amazing! Cheer for Captain Usopp!" the men cry.

A man comes over to where you are sitting, placing a large cup of alcohol in front of you. "Please, drink up." you shake your head, backing away. "No, please. I don't like alcohol." you say panicked. "Don't worry. It's made of prime grapes that are used to make prime wine." he assures. You still shake your head. "Though it sounds nice, I really don't like alcohol."

Zoro puts his arm around your shoulder. "Stop being a wuss Y/n!" he takes the cup and pours it into your mouth. You try your best not to gag, but swallow. "Hmm.. It tastes good!" you exclaim. It didn't taste like alcohol at all.

"Yes! Now please, join our competition!" You and Nami shake your heads. "I can't drink that much!" you two say in unison. He pulls out a large bag with the berries symbol. "The prize is 100,000 berries!" Nami immediately stands up, cup out. "Another drink, please!" she says.
