Sanji
Traveling by sea is boring, but not when you have Luffy.
Right now they were designing the flag. Since Luffy's artistic abilities are zero, Usopp took it upon himself to do it.
-Wow, that's perfect!- Nami exclaimed in surprise.
-There we go.-
-It doesn't look even remotely like the other one.-
-That's great! Draw one on our sail too later!- Luffy said while laughing happily.
-Yeah well, I've honed my artistic talents by drawing on the walls of people's homes for years. I'm quite the master artist, you know.- Usopp said with his chest puffed out with pride.- Alright, it's done! With this, our pirate ship "Going Merry" is ready for action!-
They enjoyed the quiet until a bounty hunters appeared. After Luffy defeated Johnny, they found out that he is Zoro's friends and his companion Yosaku was really sick.
-Yeah... He was just fine a couple days ago, but all of a sudden he turned pale and kept passing out! I don't know what he's come down with...- Johnny sits next to Yosaku.- His teeth have begun to fall out, and his old wounds have reopened...! I just don't know what to do anumore. I was trying to at least let him get some rest on top of that rock, but... All of a sudden, this ship fired a cannonball at us!!!-
-......! W-We're truly, truly sorry.- Luffy and Usopp lowered their heads as they apologize to the man.
-It's fine, what's done is done... If all problems could be solved with a apology, there wouldn't be any need for Marines.-
That made both of them feel even worse.
-"Yosaku and Johnny"... We were infamous enough to have pirates shaking in their boots at the mere mention of our names from time to time. We've lived and worked together as bounty hunters for years! Is this... How it's all gonna end!?-
-......-
-God, how thick could you get!- Nami shouted suddenly.
-What did you just say!?-
-Lady, I won't let you go free if you dare to make a mockery of my partner's suffering...- Johnny took his sword.
-Luffy! Usopp! There're some limes in the kitchen! Go squeeze the juice out and bring it here asap!-
-R-Roger!- Luffy and Usopp ran to the kitchen right away.
-Limes...?-
They brought the freshly squeezed lime juice. Usopp raised Yosaku's head as Luffy poured the juice into his mouth.
-He's afflicted with scurvy. If we're not too late, he should recover just fine in a few days.- explained Nami.
-A-ARE YOU TELLING ME THE TRUTH, SIS!?-
-Please, don't call me sis.- Nami said.- In the past, it was practically a death sentence for sailors. It's caused by lack of nutrients found in fruits and vegetables. It was quite common back then because ships simply didn't have the technology to effectively store fresh fruits and vegetables for long periods of time...-
-Wooow! You're like a doctor!-
-Yeah, I always knew that girl was special. Usopp's eyes are never wrong.-
-IF YOU'RE GOING TO BE SAILING, YOU SHOULD KNOW AT LEAST THIS MUCH! GOD, YOUR STUPIDITY WILL BE THE DEATH OF ALL OF YOU!-Nami punches Luffy.- You're still as stupid as when we were kids!!!-
-Alright, I'm charged up on nutrients and ready for action!- Yosaku shouted, getting up.
-Haha, my partner's fine now!-
-Like HELL he could recover that fast!- Nami shouted with disbelief.
-Sorry for the late introductions. The name's Johnny!-
-And I'm Yosaku! Zoro used to bounty hunt with us in the past! Nice to meet you all!- Yosaku said with a cigarette between his fingers.- I don't know how to thank you. I thought I bit the dust for sure.-
-Well, colour me surprised! I never would've expected the infamous pirate hunter Zoro to have become a pirate herself!-
Suddenly Yosaku spat up blood, scaring Johnny.
-Yosaku!-
-Just shut up and get some rest already!- Zoro yelled with a throbbing vein on her head.
++++++++
-Good morning.- Sanji greeted with a cigarette between his teeth and a tray in one hand.
-How are you, Sanji?-
-Apart from not seeing many beautiful girls in this restaurant... Good.- Sanji puts the plates of food on Zeref's table.- Enjoy your food!-
The two were chatting quietly until a cannonball destroyed a small part of the restaurant.
-What the...!!!???-
Zeref sighed. He had a vague idea who might have been to blame for this.
++++++++
-Owner, are you alright!?-
-You THINK I'm alright? Anyways, enough yapping and get back to work!- Zeff yelled with blood on his forehead.
-B-But sir! Your body's...!-
-Are you trying to make me angry!?- Zeff asked.- It's a cook's duty to keep his customers well-fed. Are you planning on ruining my restaurant, you numbskulls!?-
Two cooks entered with Luffy.
-Sir! We brought the one responsible for this!-
-This is the perp!-
-I'm sorry, uncle Zeff!-
-... Wait. UNCLE!!??-
-I knew you were responsible, you damn brat...- Zeff said sighing.- Since the first time you came to this restaurant with your brothers, this place suffered from everything. I should thank all the Gods that at least you didn't sink it... Again.-
Luffy avoided Zeff's accusing gaze and looked up at the ceiling like it was the most interesting thing in the universe.
++++++++
-Remember this... Going against a cool on the seas, is tantamount to suicide...- Sanji said lifting "Ironfist Fullbody" off the ground with one hand.- Don't you dare to waste food...-
-Yo!! Sanji!!!- Luffy greeted with waiter clothes.
-Ah, Luffy...- Sanji released Fullbody and lit a cigarette.- So you were the idiot who destroyed the ceiling with a cannonball.-
-It was unintentionally.-
-I'm not even surprised anymore.-
-Hello Luffy.-
-Zeref-nii!!!- Luffy lunged to hug Zeref and wrapped his arms around his waist several times.
Zeref patted Luffy's head.
-Where's Natsu-nii?- Luffy asked trying to find the man with the spiky pink-colored hair.
-Natsu will arrive later. He was in North Blue and hung out with Buggy when he got to East Blue.-
-I wanted to introduce my nakamas to him.- Luffy pouted.
Zeref just keeps patting his head.
-How long are you going to work here this time?-
-A week. He says that he won't be able to deal with me for more than a week. I would give him a heart attack.-
-I see...-
