After the world went to hell, Usopp and Nami find themselves just a few years before they meet Luffy again. This time, they're not going to be the cowards of the crew.

The Pirate King Monkey D. Luffy didn't come back to save the world. His only wish is to save his friends and assure their absolute happiness this time around.

"That's the thing about nakama. It means you never have to say goodbye or be alone." In which Monkey D. Lucy, future Pirate King, and Roronoa Zoro, future World's Greatest Swordsman, are dumb and everyone else is long-suffering. Also, there's this crazy adventure and all that. Or: Things with them are always do or die, and love is just the same.

A stranger flirts with the oblivious Luffy, and the Straw Hat Pirates reveal a possessive streak.

The liar. The prideful pretender. The coward.Usopp didn't know how much he could change, even when the chance was thrust onto him. He doubted he could correct things with his slingshot and his wits, even with a decade to work with.But, even though he knew he was the weakest, he was still a Straw Hat pirate, and he would damn well try.

So Law had thought the Straw Hats had taken the battle with Kaidou as a personal vendetta for all the tears shed by Momosuke and all sorts of new Wano friends. The Hearts captain had been badly mistaken. Apparently, this was what personal looked like. (In which, Law and the Straw Hats will get angry for Luffy when he's not able to.)

Zoro scoffs and moves his captain closer. “Go get your own.” Chopper gapes wordlessly. All the rest of Nami’s nakama have a similar expression on their faces, something between stupefied and offended—save Robin, who presses a secret smile behind her hand, and Jimbei, whose rumbling chuckle is just barely audible over the sound of the sea. Nami—who knows very well what Zoro looks like when he’s trying to get a rise out of someone, who knows very well that she has a claim on Luffy that only a handful of other people in the world share, one that can never be broken or stolen or changed—feels herself bristle, too. “HE IS OUR OWN!” the majority of one of the most infamous pirate crews in the New World shriek like schoolchildren. a collection of standalone nakamaship stories

“The call of the void” is a french phrase used to refer to intellectual thoughts, or the urge to engage in destructive behaviors during everyday life. Examples include thinking about swerving into the opposite lane while driving, or feeling the urge to jump off a cliff edge while standing on it. It's also known as Luffy's constant state of being. I was just trying to survive on the hell that was the GrandLine. As a kid, pretending to be a boy was just the easiest decision. But when you save a princess, it kind of opens up your options. Being a Pirate's not so bad now, it's even better when other pirates are still terrified from my bounty hunting days.

in·a·ni·tion, noun; lack of mental or spiritual vigor and enthusiasm; exhaustion caused by lack of nourishment. (In which Luffy's metabolism is faster than his doctor understands.)

“I don’t buy it,” Pete retorts. “Someone like you? Some cook from East Blue? You’re probably worth a couple hundred thousand bellies at best, maybe a million, if your captain’s somebody.” Sanji tilts his head back so that it rests against the dirty wall behind him. He’s still upright, somehow, through sheer stubbornness or spite. He doesn’t look like someone who only has tonight left to live. In fact, he looks sharp. There’s no better word for it. His expression is still as peaceable as it has been since he arrived, but watching him is like watching a knife slide out of its sheath. He is, abruptly, dangerous. A tool made for cutting. “If you knew where I’ve been, you would be terrified of me,” he says.

“You spoke, didn’t you?” he asks, convinced that he had heard somebody calling him into consciousness. The sword says nothing, but Luffy gets the impression that it wants to say more – if it could, or if he could hear it, and he frowns, turning back to the front door. [At Shells Town, Luffy does not meet Roronoa Zoro. Instead, he acquires a sword]

“How did Luffy get someone like you to join the crew?” “He blackmailed me.” Nami’s expression morphs into something that Zoro can’t quite describe and it takes all of his willpower not to laugh and how perplexed she seems. “Luffy blackmailed……you.” “With my swords at a marine base." "There are so many things wrong with that sentence." also known as: the strawhats exchange stories of their wild captain and their wild adventures

He’s surrounded by strangers, but they’re all trying to convince him otherwise. Or, Zoro faces a mysterious and relentless challenge that he just can’t wrap his head around.

Sequel to Same Song, Different Verse: "Love is a risk. Of course it is. We pirates are made of dreams to risk and hearts to lose." Monkey D. Lucy and Roronoa Zoro are still only halfway to their dreams, but at least they have each other. The New World is hard and dangerous, but like all great things, it's wonderful too. They're the Pirate King and the World's Greatest Swordsman, after all. The rest of the world just hasn't quite caught on yet. In which things are still very much do or die, and love is exactly the same.

"Don't be stupid." Zoro rolled his eyes, setting his katana down. "I'd never leave you.""But, I want you to." Vivi sat down beside him, blue eyes shining with tears. "You want so much more than this. I know you do. I saw it in your eyes when we were on Merry. You were meant to be an adventurer, Zoro. You were meant to be free." or After a twisted turn of events, Zoro starts out as Vivi's swordsman and ends up as Luffy's.

"You're not real," their baby brother insists adamantly for the fifth time, and Ace and Sabo share a look of actual distress; because Luffy is staring at them blankly, as if they should know very well they don't exist.
