Luffy is extremely bored, to the point he even bothered Sanji and get yelled at. I mean, what could he do? He's done everything even cleaning his room completely, no dirt spotted anymore. Luffy begins reminiscing as he laid on top of Going Merry's head, completely absentminded as he stares at the sky.

What instantly came to him is the valuable and pleasant nostalgia along his nakama and his brothers. He beams a little bit, but his brows were furrowed in sorrow.

Luffy determined to go to Sanji first, so he rises up and strides toward the lounge where Sanji is cooking. Opening the door, Sanji immediately groaned. "Go away, Shitty Strawhat. It's not dinner yet, so give inconvenience to someone else."

Luffy pouts a bit but goes in and closes the door, heaving a little bit along the way. "Hey, I wasn't going to bother you or anything..."

Sanji only huffs back and adds mushrooms to the food he's making. "Yeah, yeah. Just don't do anything stupid."

Luffy disregards Sanji's words and looks at the tempting meal whatever Sanji is making. "What're you cooking?"

"Beef Bourguignon." Sanji replied nonchalantly as he pours a burgundy red wine into the stockpot before adding the carrots he chopped. Next, he placed the chopped garlic then the cauliflower, he then places the celery. Adding the salt, pepper, and bay leaves, he adds a little rosemary before closing the stockpot and placing the stove in medium low heat.

It wasn't long before Luffy groaned and banged his head on the table, letting his stomach growl loudly. "That's surely delicious..." He pauses before raising his head slightly, enough to look at Sanji who just sat on the chair with his hand on the table while resting his eyes. "How many are you going to make?"

"Enough to satisfy your monstrous appetite along with the ladies." Sanji says seriouslu before puffing smoke from his cigarette. Luffy groans again, making Sanji chuckle a little. "It's going to take long, Shitty Strawhat. Go and bother someone else if you don't want to die in starvation while looking at the food."

Luffy just nods and walks out with his hungry look that was ready to take the beef brisket out, too bad Sanji was glaring at him. Closing the door, he immediately goes to the crow's nest to annoy Zoro.

"Hey, Zoro! What'cha doin'?" Luffy asks as he climbs up and looks at Zoro, who looked at him back.

"Training, what do you want?" Zoro asks while his voice held a little annoyance. Luffy pouts once again, why was his crew always like that to him?

"I just wanted to see you... Seriously, every time I go to one of you, all of you always ask with the same question and tone." Luffy complains as he clumsily plops on the wooden ground with a thud.

Zoro only shook his head and continued his training, which made Luffy grin and feel proud. After a few minutes, he decided to leave him alone and went away, letting Zoro alone.

Luffy visits Nami next, who was busy making maps. Her face was filled with stress, so Luffy thought to ease her mind with a little interruption. Luffy sat next to her, on the wooden ground. Nami immediately sees him at her peripheral vision and sighd. "What do you want?" Woah, her tone is more aggressive than Sanji's. Though, it wasn't surprising.

"Nothing, I just want to spend my time with you. Is that illegal now?" Luffy joked with a grin while Nami just looked at him, unimpressed.

"No it isn't, just don't bother me." Nami says as she returns to what she was making, a solemn face once again on her face. It wasn't long before Luffy got bored, so he stood up, ruffled Nami's hair and went away.
