One Piece: The Bored Traveler

Chapter 6

(Y/N): I'm home!

(Y/N) entered the doors to the orphanage and greeted the fellow kids living there.

"Hey, it's big bro!"

"Did you catch a lot of pirates today?"

"Were they strong?"

(Y/N) patted the kids' head.

(Y/N): I'll tell you all about it later, now where is Sister Ella?

"She's in the kitchen I think."

Using his haki, (Y/N) looked at the kitchen and sensed Ella there and that she was finishing up her cooking.

(Y/N): Alrighty then, go and wash your hands! Looks like it's almost dinnertime!

"Yes!"

The kids all replied and went to the restroom.

(Y/N) entered the kitchen and greeted Sister Ella.

(Y/N): Finishing up the food, Sister Ella?

Ella turned around and saw the young man who she had been raising since she was only twenty.

Ella: (Y/N)! How was work? Did you get hurt?

(Y/N) sat down on a chair next to the table.

(Y/N): Come on, I haven't had a single injury since like a year ago.

Ella laughed a little and gave (Y/N) a glass of water.

(Y/N) drank the water and with a serious face said.

(Y/N): Vice Admiral Garp came today...

Ella knew what this meant. (Y/N) had requested Captain William something weeks prior to Vice Admiral Garp's visit.

(Y/N): Looks like the answer is yes...

Ella forced a smile and clapped her hands.

Ella: Wow! Congrats, now you can work in a bigger stage and become stronger.

(Y/N): Make more money too! Like today, I caught a pirate worth seven million berries. Which is a lot, but I'll be able to get much more if I follow Vice Admiral Garp.

Ella: (Y/N)... What you have already spent on this orphanage... And for the kids and me... I'll never be able to repay you back. It's all thanks to you that this place is still running.

(Y/N): You already did though!

The young man smiled and remembered the earliest memories of his.

(Y/N): You've been raising me since I was four. When I was first left off at the doorstep of this orphanage. I owe you my life! Besides, it's not like I'm giving you all of my money! Just half of my salary and the bounties I collect!

Ella: Which is very a lot...

(Y/N): Haha... Forget what I said... Anyways, Sister Ella, I'll be leaving tomorrow morning...

Ella: I guess this will be your last meal here then.

Sister Ella started tying her brown hair up and pulled her sleeves up.

Ella: I'll make some more delicious food then!

(Y/N): Haha! The kids are gonna love it!
