Wow, he really did it!" someone shouted. "He actually hit Captain Morgan's son!"
"Luffy calm down, they're marines!" Coby yelled as he tried to hold Luffy back.
"I don't care!" Luffy snapped. "A bastard is still a bastard, no matter who his father is!"
"Y-you hit me" Helmeppo whined from the ground, "no one has ever hit me! Not even my father! I'M MARINE CAPTAIN MORGAN'S BELOVED SON! I'M TELLING MY FATHER ON YOU!" The two marines he was with helped him up and he ran out crying like the little bitch he was. "You'll get a death sentence for sure! And my father will be the one who executes it! YOU BASTARD!"
The other customers in the restaurant all gasped in shock, Luffy seemed to still be angry. The one-eyed waiter walked over to Luffy's hat and picked it up.
"It's meaningless to hit people like him," Luffy muttered to himself, he was disgusted with Helmeppo, he was a coward and a liar. Just one was bad enough.
"You were so cool!" Rika said to Luffy.
"Well then maybe I should have hit him a couple more times for you," Luffy joked.
"Rika!" Rika's mother Ririka scolded her, "you shouldn't be talking to that person, if the marines think you're his friend, they'll kill you too!"
With the mother and daughter gone the waiter walked over to Luffy and held out his straw hat. "Shanks wouldn't want this to get ruined," he said in a soft, completely calm voice.
Luffy didn't seem to hear what he had said and just answered, "Yeah, thanks," while putting the hat back on his head.
"Three... two... one..." the waiter counted down.
"Y/N! IT'S YOU!" Luffy suddenly shouted.
"About time you realized it," the waiter commented.
"What happened to you?" Luffy asked as he stared at the black eye patch over Y/N's right eye.
"I had a run-in with a tough pirate while I was treasure hunting last year," Y/N answered. "He wanted a treasure I managed to get, I said 'no' and he scratched my eye out and left me for dead. I've been taking a break and working here for the last month."
"Have you thought of giving being a pirate another shot?" Luffy asked.
"Maybe," said Y/N evasively.
"Then you're gonna join my pirate crew," Luffy told him. "We'll be Nakama!"
"You're supposed to let me decide, you idiot," Y/N muttered.
"I did it for you," said Luffy. "It'll be great! You can help me find One Piece and I'll become King of the Pirates!"
"One Piece?" Y/N repeated with a small smile.
"Yeah!" Luffy answered. "And since there's no one else on the crew yet. You can be First Mate."
"Hmm... it would be an opportunity to start over," Y/N commented mostly to himself. "Tell you what... we'll settle this the way we used to."
"Okay," Luffy agreed. "If I win, you'll join my crew, and if you win, you can still join if you want to."
"Ready?" asked Y/N as he held his arm out. Luffy nodded as he mimicked his brother.
"SHOOT!" Luffy held out a fist while Y/N was holding out his hand with two fingers extended.
Coby face-faulted as Luffy's rock crushed Y/N's scissors. "Yeah! Now you'll join my crew!"
"A deal's a deal," Y/N agreed with a sly grin. "I guess we're Nakama now."
