Everyone in the plaza staring at the confused Straw Hat and the mysterious woman. They had enough surprise and shock for today seriously, definitely enough for the rest of their life.

The Royal family stared at Straw Hat and wondered whether he knew this woman or not, also tried to get rid of the handcuffs. Shirahoshi blinked at the woman curiously.

"Who is she?" She asked. Jinbei who stood nearby her all the time, frowned and rubbed his chin.

"I have no idea. Do you know her?" He turned to face the shocked Straw Hat pirates. Robin just gave him a mysterious smile and watched the scene.

"Usopp! Is her! She is here!" Chopper grinned and jumping up and down excitedly. The sniper was still in shocked and didn't react to the reindeer's words, eyes glued on that woman.

Sanji grinned excitedly and spun to the woman in an unbelievable speed, eyes were in big and pink heart shape.

"Oh my god! Na-"

"Who are you?" The Straw Hat captain asked loudly with an innocent face, titled his head.

Sanji immediately tripped and fell on the ground with his face. Zoro and Usopp dropped their sweats to the answer, kind of expected it to come already.

Franky and Brook laughed emotionlessly and pretend they didn't know anything.

Robin chuckled lightly and decided to concentrate on her fight. Chopper blinked to Luffy's answer, wondered whether he heard something wrong or not.

"Seriously, who is she?" Jinbei sighed and asked again. He was getting more and more confused. Could someone told him who was that woman?

"Idiot! How can you not recognize her?!" Sanji glared at the idiot, yelling frustratingly.

Nami who covered her face from the start sighed tiredly to her captain's stupidity, face palmed. Her captain seemed to be more idiotic than 2 years ago? Really?

Before she could continue, she spotted another group of fishmen approaching them. She pushed Luffy forward and launched the Thunder Strikes again.

"Hey! I told you already-" Luffy frowned and yelled, but his head was hit very hard that made him yelped in pain.

"Alright, alright! You can go fight them by yourself now!" Nami frowned with big cross marks on her forehead and hit Luffy's head one last time before she kicked him to Hody's direction.

"I'm done! How can he be so idiot?!" She face palmed, sighed tiredly. She had no idea how came her captain became more idiotic than 2 years before? The future seemed so dim to imagine now.

"Nami!!!"

She turned and saw the adorable reindeer running toward her, smiling brightly. She smiled and bent, let the reindeer jumped into her arms.

"Nami! I miss you!" Chopper rubbed his head in Nami's neck crook, grinning. Once the familiar smell of mikan flew into his nose, he knew their navigator has finally returned to them. Everyone was here again!

The navigator's glance softened and the fury caused by her captain faded away slowly by the adorable creature's loving action.

"I miss you too, Chopper! You grow up a lot!" She giggled and rubbed the reindeer's head, so soft and fluffy as usual. She really surprised when she saw Chopper's 7 transformation, he really grew up a lot in these years.

"Nami, it's nice to see you again." Robin smiled gently to the girl while slapped a fishman's face hard with her devil's fruit power without looking.
