'Hi' -thoughts

3rd POV:
•TIME SKIP (After 6 Years)•
"You can't handle being a pirate! Not being able to swim is a pirate's greatest weakness!!" A man with red hair said as he laughed.
"As Long as I stay onboard the ship, I'll be fine!! Besides, My fighting is pretty good too!" A 7 year old Luffy retorted.
The red hair crew entered the Partys Bar, cheering up luffy as they encouraged him to become a pirate. Luffy grins in excitement. "Don't give him these dumb ideas guys." Shanks sighs.
"But it's the truth right?"
"Right!"
Shanks' crew mates say as others tried to reason out with Shanks to bring the kid along with them.
"The most important thing is that you're still too young. Wait another 10 years and I'll reconsider taking you out to sea." Shanks tells Luffy.
"DARN IT SHANKS!! LET ME TELL YOU!! I'M NOT A KID ANYMORE!!" yelled Luffy, gritting his teeth. "Don't be mad. Here, drink some juice" Shanks offered. "Ok! Thanks!" He accepts the drink and gulps it down.
"YOU REALLY ARE A KID! HOW FUNNY!" Shanks bursts in laughter, tears coming out from his eyes. "WHAT A DIRTY TRICK!!" Luffy yells.
"HMPH!! I'M SO TIRED! I even cut myself today and he still won't agree!!" Luffy huffs in annoyance.
"Luffy." Benn called while lighting his cigarette. "You should understand our captain's feelings."
"Understand Shanks' feelings?" Luffy asks.
"Yes, afterall he's our leader. He knows that being a pirate is interesting but he also knows that a pirate's life is hard and dangerous. Do you understand?" Benn says with a smile
"I DON'T UNDERSTAND! HE JUST TAKES ME FOR AN IDIOT"
"Can't swim!" Shanks snickers.
"SEE!!"
Two girls entered the bar, carrying a barrel. "Captain, you seem to be happy as always." Makino smiles.
"Bullying him again, Manchild?" Xuri sighs while she helps Makino.
"Makino! Xuri! Good to see you!- ...HEY! WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME?"
Xuri ignored him as Shanks sulks.
Xuri's POV :
Makino and I served the meals for Luffy and Shanks. I was cleaning the utensils and organising the alcohol bottles on the shelves with Makino as I listened to Luffy and Shanks' conversation.
"Shanks?" Luffy calls for him
"What is it?"
"How long are you gonna stay?"
"Well.. it's been almost a year since we used this town as our base. I plan on setting sail a couple of more times then we'll leave this town and head north."
'Alright, I'll be taking the opportunity then.' I thought to myself
"A couple of times..." Luffy trails off. "I'll learn how to swim by then!"
"Alright! Goodluck." Shanks replies.
A group of pirates bursts into the bar, making everyone turn their attention to them. "Excuse me!!" A guy says walking towards the bar counter.
"We're bandits, We're not here to cause trouble. We just wanna buy 10 barrels of sake."
"Sorry Mr. Whoever you are but we ran out of sake." I say, not even taking a glance at him while cleaning the mugs.
"Oh? That's strange, then what are they drinking? Is it water?"
"It's sake." Shanks replied.
"But that's all we have." Makino says.
"I'm sorry, looks like we've finished all the sake here. If you don't mind, take the last bottle." Shanks offered him the bottle but it was smashed on his face.
Makino gasped while I stopped cleaning, looking up with a displeased face. 'He just wasted all that sake...and now made a damn mess? This hoe..."
"Who do you think I am? Don't take me so lightly. One bottle is not enough." The bandit said
"Oh no- Now the floor is all wet." Shanks said. The bandit showed his wanted poster, showing 8 million berries. 'Just 8 million?' I thought.
Shanks started to pick up the broken pieces of glass at the same time apologising to Makino and I. "Ah.. it's alright, I'll clean it up!" Makino says.
The bandit suddenly attacks Shanks in which the red hair dodges, making a huge mess.
'Great. Now he made a bigger mess..that I have to clean later on, fantastic.'
The bandit left shortly after making a few comments as silence took over. Makino rushed to Shanks, checking if he was okay. The red hair crew bursts in laughter saying how their captain looked goofy, followed by Shanks laughing as well.
I sighed, "Should've let that thing stay so I could use his face to mop the floor." Hearing my remark, the crew laughed harder.
"WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING?!" Luffy angrily yells.
"Huh?"
" THAT WAS DISGRACEFUL !!! WHY DIDN'T YOU FIGHT HIM?! SO WHAT IF THEY HAVE MORE PEOPLE?! WHO LAUGHS AFTER GETTING PICKED ON? YOU'RE NOT A MAN AND NOT A PIRATE EITHER!!"
"I know how you feel. But it's just a bottle of sake, nothing to get worked up about". Luffy starts to walk away angrily.
"Oh come on. Don't go, Luffy.."
"I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU EVER AGAIN, COWARD!!" Shanks got a hold of his hand and it started to stretch as he walked away. Everyone's eyes bulged out and some spit out their drink.
"HUH???"
"WHA-!?!?"
"Oh no..He ate one.." I said to myself
3rd POV :
"IT'S GONE!! THE FRUIT OF RUBBER WE TOOK FROM THE ENEMY ISN'T HERE!!!" Lucky Roux opened a chest and then he quickly shows a drawing of the Gum-Gum fruit to Luffy and asks if he ate a fruit that looks like that
"...Well yea, isn't that dessert ? It taste pretty bad though..." answered Luffy.
Shanks grabbed Luffy as he yells,
"THAT'S THE FRUIT OF RUBBER!! ITS ONE OF THE FRUITS OF THE DEVIL AND ONE OF THE RAREST TREASURES OF THE SEA!"
"WHOEVER EATS IT WILL TURN INTO A RUBBER MAN AND WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO SWIM!!" He finishes telling Luffy."WHHAAAAAT!!!! YOU'RE KIDDING RIGHTT!!!!" Luffy's jaw dropped as he shouts in disbelief.
"YOU IDIOOOT!!!"
