???: "Smoker-kun! Don't tell me you used the Dance Powder?!"
Smoker: "You idiot. I do know than to commit a crime. The Alabasta King kept his hands off of this powder. What's the point in me going against his morals now? Hina."
Hina: "Oh, excuse me. I apologize. I can't believe the "White Hunter" of all men would say something sweet. I wonder if you've mellowed out a little..." she wondered making Smoker turned to her.
Smoker: "Thats none of your business."
Hina: "At any rate, you're really something using my elite unit just to look for a ship. Very upset... I'm upset!"
-Timeskip brought to you by Chibi (Y/N) sleeping with a newspaper on his face-
The people were enjoying the rain. Everyone around, including the Kung Fu Dugongs at the ship. The rain even met up in Yuba where lies Toto in the hole on his knee. It was just three years. And after that day, the crew were brought to the into a place to sleep.
???: "Vivi-sama, you're still awake?"
Vivi: "Igaram..."
Igaram: "Can't sleep?" he guessed
Vivi: "It's not that. I just don't want to. I just want to keep watching the rain."
Everyone was all asleep snoring.
Igaram: "About Pell... He is the most dignified and strongest among the warriors I know."
Vivi: "Yes... I wanted to say "thank you" to him..."
Igaram: "He'd be... greatly honored you that..."
The night has gone by and we return to the Smoker. One of the soldiers told that Tashigi has arrived. Then a Transponder Snail called and asked if it was Smoker on the other side.
Smoker: "Speaking."
Transponder Snail: "In regards to your subduing Crocodile, it's been decided that the top officials of the Government are going to give you and Sergeant Major Tashigi a medal."
Smoker: "What are you saying...? We weren't the ones who took down Crocodile. We're they even listening to the report?"
Transponder Snail: "Furthermore, each of you will be promoted one rank, so..." the snail kept talking while Smoker tries to tell them that it was the Straw Hats' actions.
Hina: "It's no use, Smoker-kun. The Government is probably going to cover up this incident. Everyone at the Government was outwitted with regard to Alabasta's crisis. You think they'll tell the world was saved by some rookie pirates?"
The snail kept talking about how they were going to reward the two but Smoker wasn't going to accept it.
Hina: "Just accept it! Smoker-kun! We don't know what the top officials will do if you disobey them!"
Smoker: "We took Crocodile down?! My subordinate is crying because we couldn't defeat him. Hey, you... Could you give a message to the old geezer for me...?"
Hina: "Smoker-kun!" she warned him but it was too late.
Smoker: "Tell them to "EAT SHIT!" for me." he ends the call.
-Timeskip brought to you by Chibi (Y/N) getting a check up-
Usopp and Sanji went shopping for the banquet. Sanji told that the town is sturdy because Vivi being cute but Usopp doubt it has anything to do with it. Zoro was outside the city lifting two giant stones.
Zoro: "I'll improve my concentration... Until I can bring bring out that power any time... I can't consider myself stronger."
Then we moved to the castle where Cobra and Nami were. The girl was reading the books and asked if she could take some, it was fine when the king already read all of them.
Nami: "Thank you! Then I'll help myself." she continues reading.
Chaka: "Did you not listen to me? Go back!" he told the marines to leave.
Marine: "If you lie, it'll harm your country! Sheltering pirates is a felony." he told the guard as the two pirates made it back.
But where was (Y/N)?
(Y/N): "I didn't think I'll end up in this situation..." he looked around to see himself surrounded by women.
Women 1: "Do need a tissue?"
Women 2: "A massage?"
Women 3: "Loving?"
(Y/N): "Hey look! There's something in the sky!" he pointed making them all turn and he walked through a wall with his powers.
Then the crowd dropped their jaws to see him gone. (Y/N) continued on and looking at stuff, his head turned to see someone and in a few seconds it was gone.
(Y/N): "Huh, I must be hallucinating..."
Back to the castle we have them all there. Luffy finally woke up and laughs that he slept well but wonder where his hat was. But he wanted breakfast but again, he wanted his hat. The door opens to reveal the ink man finding their hats.
Luffy: "Thank you! (Y/N)!"
Sanji: "Where were you?"
(Y/N): "You don't want to know..." his head flashes images of the event that happened to him.
Zoro: "Oh? You're awake, Luffy!"
Luffy: "Hey, Zoro, long time no see! "Long time no see"? Why do I feel weird saying that?" he ponders while Chopper yells at Zoro for training again.
Chopper: "NO MEANS NO! I'M THE SHIP DOCTOR! AND DON'T TAKE OFF THE BANDAGES, EITHER!" he complained when Zoro had explanations.
(Y/N): "I can't believe you've slept for three straight days."
Luffy: "THREE DAY?! DID I REALLY SLEEP FOR THREE WHOLE DAYS?!" he was shocked.
Usopp: "Thats right."
Luffy: "Then I missed 15 meals..." he calculated.
Nami: "You know maths when it comes to food?!"
(Y/N): "Five meals a day, that's what he knows." he said with his eyes closed showing how bored he is.
Someone bust opened the doors to see them.
???: "Did I hear right that the captain is up?! It'll be dinner time soon, so would you wait for a bit?"
(Y/N): "Igaram?" he guessed.
Luffy: "Oh hey, old curly-hair guy! You're alive?"
Zoro: "S-So you really were into that sort of thing..." he remembers the first encounter.
Vivi: "No, everyone. She's Terracotta-san. She's Igaram's wife and is also the head of the palace's servers." she introduced the crew.
(Y/N): "They look more like siblings than husband and wife."
Fruit was brought to Luffy in a big cart. He was told to eat the fruit while waiting for dinner to come. Luffy installs made the fruits disappear less than a second.
Zoro & Sanji: "ARE YOU A MAGICIAN?!"
(Y/N): "Terracotta, make sure to make a dinner that will last for three days."
Then they were at the dinning table. The crew were devouring the food quickly, (Y/N) took his time cutting into food. The royal army were shocked to see their appetite in a castle.
Royal Guard 1: "They don't have a shred of dignity..." he said as a bone flown past him
Royal Guard 2: "Meals at this dinning hall are supposed to be quieter than this..."
Zoro: "Eat quick or it'll be gone!" he warned just as Luffy took Zoro's food on the fork.
Usopp: "HEY, LUFFY! YOU JUST TOOK THE FOOD OFF OF MY PLATE, DIDN'T YOU?!" he pointed his knife at the rubber man.
Luffy covered his mouth and started shaking his head to signal him that he didn't. Nami punched him for spitting food. Chopper was between Sanji and (Y/N) and they told the reindeer to not hurry.
(Y/N): "Don't eat your food too quickly, or you'll..."
Vivi: "Don't worry, we've got more than you could ever imagine." she smiled at the ink man.
Usopp: "Let's see if like the taste of my Tabasco Star." he puts spicy powder on a rice ball and Luffy took the bait.
Luffy was spits out flames from his mouth making Usopp and Lashes laugh. Usopp was surprised to see the camel at the dining table. Sanji saw a dish and asked what it was. Nami seems to be enjoying herself. More food came and (Y/N) was eating calmly deflecting Luffy's arms away from his food.
Luffy: "Off man, I diffn mow mu were meh ming!" he said with food in his mouth.
Cobra: "How about we talk after dinner..."
(Y/N): "Can you bring more tea... and some water here!" he raised his hand asking for more as Chopper was choking on his food.
Royal Guard 1: "What a noisy dinner table..."
Royal Guard 2: "They're too vulgar to keep watching..."
As the dinner goes on the princess was laughing at the wonderful time. The guards tried to keep their faces straight, but it slowly shifted into surprise, to chucking, then to laughing. Usopp was balancing plates on his noise as Chopper placed chopsticks in his nose to his mouth.
(Y/N) couldn't help but laugh a little making Vivi surprised.
Vivi: "Thats the first time (Y/N)-san laugh for real..."
Later after. The crew went into separate rooms from the girls and boys, and jumped into a hot bath.
Cobra: "We usually use it for rainy seasons."
Luffy & Usopp: "WE'RE HEADONG IN FIRST! *slips* WOAH!" the bounced of the fountain and slides to a wall.
(Y/N): "Patience is key..."
Cobra: "I really enjoyed the dinner. Because of the current situation, I thought we'd keep it simple, but it seems that anything that involves you guys around can become a party."
Luffy: "OI! ZORO! WE CAN TRAIN HERE INSTEAD!" Luffy spoke out to the swordsman which made him turn to see them dancing in the waterfall.
Sanji: "So where's the women's bath?" he elbows Igaram hoping to know.
Igaram: "ARE YOU NUTS?! *slaps Sanji's hand* WHY WOULD I TELL?! VIVI-SAMA'S THERE!"
Sanji: "Dont be so stingy!" he slaps Igaram's shoulder.
Then Cobra told him that it was over the wall making Igaram yell at him for being idiotic. Vivi and Nami were having their time in their own bath.
Vivi: "I'm sure it does, since the sea is so vast. But I wanna ask you something..."
Nami: "What is it?" she curiosity wonders.
Vivi: "Have you ever heard... (Y/N) laugh? Like a real one?"
Nami: "No, what about it?"
Vivi: "It seems that... he's always negative, but that laugh was real. Do you think he's-."
The girls noticed the Luffy, Igaram, Sanji, Usopp, Cobra, Chopper and Lashes were looking over the wall. Before Nami did her trick they were pulled down when (Y/N) had enough.
Vivi: "(Y/N)-san...?"
Nami: "I think we might leave here tonight..." she said making Vivi sad.
Sanji: "OI! (Y/N)! WHY DID YOU STOP ME?!"
(Y/N): "I had enough of you... Smack!" he slaps him in the face.
Cobra: "Thank you..."
Boys: "You dirty old man..."
Cobra: "I'm not talking about that! *wipes blood* I'm talking about the country." he says as he bows to them.
(Y/N): "Is it natural for a king to bow?" he thinking it's weird.
Igaram: "This is a serious incident, Cobra-sama. A king shouldn't bow his head to anyone."
Cobra: "Igaram... Authority is something you wear over your clothes. But we're in a bath. There's no such thing as a naked king. I thank you from the bottom of my heart as a father sand as a resident of this land."
(Y/N): "We help anyone, especially the ones that has a big role." he said as Luffy laughs along.
Cobra: "Thank you! I really appreciate it!"
-Timeskip brought to you by Chibi (Y/N) playing with a rubber duckies-
They already left and were heading out to sea. They rode on the ducks and headed back to their ship. Igaram heard this and dropped some posters. The pirates made it to their boat and waved goodbye to the ducks.
Bon Clay: "I'll see you again.... definitely someday!" he cried before noticing the Straw Hats.
They got on the boat and instantly Luffy, Usopp and Chopper started dancing with Bon Clay. (Y/N) told that he's boat is near and Bon Clay already jumped to it.
(Y/N): "Let's leave this place. I'm ready for a new adventure.
