*A few days before the Straw Hats were prepared for departure.*
"Alright, guys! Let's finish up the load!" Nami told the group.
"Yeah!"
Luffy grew silent for a moment. You noticed his behaviour change, "Luffy? Something wrong?"
"(Y/N)..." Luffy started, a gust of wind interrupted the conversation for a second before it died down.
You gasped when hearing his words but soon gave a nod in acceptance, "Of course."
Both you and Luffy stood where a large crater that Kaido had created a long while ago.
It used to be where Kozuki Oden, Kin'emon, and the others' graves once were. The ruins of Oden Castle in Kuri.
"Ah. Sakura petals..." You murmured, seeing another gust of wind pull leaves and sakura petals from their branches and into the sky.
When looking at the sky, Luffy could imagine Oden, he smiled at the sight.
"Luffy! Mom!"
You and Luffy turned to see the Akazaya Nine, Brook, Nami, Igneel, Celestia, Skylar and Chopper of your crew, "Hey!" Chopper called out to you both.
"Luffytaro-san! (Y/N)-chan!" Kiku smiled when seeing you two.
"Kiku! Chopper! Everyone! Hello!" You greeted the group properly.
Luffy smiled back, "Hi! What brought you all here?" He asked.
Kiku was the one to answer, "We're here to tell Oden-sama we won."
Dogstorm walked beside the swordsman of the Fallen Snow, "There are other things that we want to tell him, too."
"Why are you-gara here?" Cat Viper asked the magician and captain.
"We're here to see Oden!" Luffy grinned, and you gave a nod in confirmation, "Mhm! We wanted to at least say hello to him after what we've accomplished after his departure."
The samurai grew surprised at your answers, "HUH?!" But they soon started to smile and laugh, "Kapapapa! I'm sure Oden-sama would be happy to see the man and woman who saved the Land of Wano!" Kawamatsu laughed, and the others nodded in agreement.
"You think so?" Luffy smiled, You waved it off, "Oh, please! I didn't do anything! It was all Luffy this time." You smiled as well.
Shinobu was first to address her lord, "Oden-sama. Thanks to Luffytaro-dono and the others here, we were able to bring down Orochi and Kaido, and take back the Land of Wano."
The Akayaza Nine all bowed their heads in respect, "Along with Momonosuke-sama who became the Shogun, we promise you that we will return this country to what it once was, where everyone can live in peace."
Kawamatsu was next to say something to Oden, "I wish Ashura and Izo were here, too..."
You teared up when remembering Izo and all the adventures Marco has told you about him and his other crewmates, 'Izo-san...We may have not been able to properly meet and get to know one another. But...I'm sure you're looking down on us with a smile...Your sister is doing well also. With Marco, too...Thank you...so much for what you've done...'
Nami, Brook, Celesita, Skylar and Chopper teared up as well when hearing the story of their past allies. Igneel was there to pat Celestia's back to calm her down.
You felt a hand hold your own making you see Luffy who only looked forward, "Luffy...?" But it was hard to see since his straw hat covered most of his face. Nonetheless, you felt touched by his sweet gesture, 'Thank you...!' You teared up a little more, trying to muffle your cries.
