One Piece: New Luffy

Three ships sailed through the wind and waves towards their final destination, the village of Cocoyasi.

On the Merry, Luffy sat cross-legged on the bow, looking into the distance.

The vast sea stretched out before him, under a clear sky.

He looked at the system.

[Adventure Coins]: 950

"It's almost a thousand, it's time to spend some."

He opened the adventure store and took a moment to choose between the ten items.

[Haki Fruit]: 200 adventure coins

[Rokushiki Fruit]: 100 Adventure Coins

[Lifetime Fruit]: 100 adventure coins

Minus 400 adventure coins, 550 remaining.

"I haven't seen a ship upgrade yet. Are ships really rare items? But there are a lot of other strange things."

Luffy thought to himself.

He opened his mouth and ate a Haki Fruit. Since his Conqueror's Haki had already awakened, this time it was just to increase his proficiency.

And the randomly obtained Haki was... from the Conqueror!

After silently digesting it, Luffy slowly opened his eyes and muttered to himself, "I feel like even if I eat three or four more, I'll be able to master 'Haki Entanglement'..."

Haki fruit is really a good thing, cheap and practical.

As for Lifespan Fruit, it wouldn't hurt to have more. He ate it right away, increasing his lifespan by 1.

After that, the lifetime displayed on the system panel changed to 72.

He intended to reach one hundred years of age as quickly as possible.

"As for the last Rokushiki Fruit..."

Luffy held the remaining fruit in his hand and pondered.

He decided to give it to Nami.

He wanted to conduct an experiment.

According to the Great Adventure System's role settings, training crew members would also reward adventure coins.

But when he made Nami eat a Rokushiki Fruit earlier, allowing her to master Soru, there was no corresponding feedback.

Maybe she needed to master all six styles?

Or maybe using items from the adventure store wouldn't get that kind of feedback.

Therefore, he was also teaching Zoro Haki to serve as a control group.

Once Zoro has awakened any type of Haki and Nami has completely mastered the six styles,

That question would probably have an answer.

As he thought, he heard a slight movement behind him.

Luffy turned his head to look.

He saw Usopp, who was unconscious, rubbing his head and slowly waking up.

"You're awake."

"Luffy? Where is this...?"

Usopp looked around, the vast sea, the exciting sea!

Luffy laughed and jumped off the Merry's figurehead. "You were unconscious for two hours. It's noon now."

"My head hurts. I think I hit a rock earlier." Usopp winced in pain.

"Are you hungry?" Luffy asked worriedly.

"Now that you mention it, my stomach is growling."

"If your stomach is growling, then hurry up and cook."

"What?!" Usopp's eyes widened and he said in disbelief, "I'm hurt, you know?"

"You don't think I can cook, do you? I'm the captain!"

Luffy patted Usopp on the shoulder with a serious expression.

Upon hearing this, Usopp sighed, smiled proudly and pointed at himself with his thumb.

"I can't do anything about you. Since that's the case, I have to show you the cooking skills I've honed for 50 years! The Great Chef Usopp!"

"Oh, go ahead."

Half an hour later.

At Merry, in the dining room.

Luffy expressionlessly dropped the shell in his hand.

"So how's it going? My boiled potatoes and meat?" Usopp asked proudly.

"Um... I suddenly remembered that Nami has something important to discuss with me!"

Luffy got up silently and quickly escaped from the devil's kitchen.

It's not that he can't eat it, it's just that compared to Nami's cooking skills, it's much worse.

Let's find dear Nami and have a meal together!

With a swoosh, he jumped from Merry to Sunny.

There was no one on deck.

Luffy entered the activity room and saw Nami cooking.

Immediately, he held his breath and approached silently, hugging Nami from behind.

"Ah~"

Nami let out a cute scream and almost spilled the hot oil from the pan.

When she turned her head, she saw Luffy and angrily scolded, "What are you doing, you scared me!!"

Luffy smelled her fragrant hair and couldn't contain his laughter, kissing her.

"Hmm!?"

Having been through previous experiences, Nami couldn't resist and quickly calmed down in his embrace.

The two were completely lost.

Suddenly, a suppressed exclamation came.

Nami stiffened and quickly pushed Luffy away, only to see Kaya standing outside the kitchen.

His face quickly turned red.

"Um..."

Kaya's face also turned slightly red as she explained in a low voice, "I just unpacked and thought maybe I could help... Sorry, I didn't mean to bother you!"

Then she ran away timidly.

"Shy, huh?" Luffy laughed.

Nami punched him in the chest, embarrassed: "It's all your fault, you idiot!"

What a shame, I hope no one saw our expression just now...

Luffy magically took out the Rokushiki fruit

"Don't make a fuss, I spent another 10 years of my life to get this for you."

Upon seeing the familiar fruit, Nami was stunned for a moment and felt deeply moved.

Although she felt that the idea of sacrificing ten years of life was absurd, she believed that this fruit must be very precious.

Besides her sister and her mother, this was the third person who was so good to her.

Nami felt her heart melt.

"Thank you, Luffy."

She didn't know how many times she had said thank you, but this time Nami didn't refuse. She reached out and took the fruit, then took the initiative to kiss Luffy.

Then she pushed him away with a smile and said, "Come out, don't disturb me while I'm cooking!"

"I want boiled meat and potatoes."

"Yes, yes~"

Leaving the kitchen helplessly, Luffy walked to the deck and saw Kaya standing next to the ship, her golden hair flowing freely in the gentle sea breeze.

The corner of her eye seemed to notice Luffy, and Kaya turned slightly, apologizing shyly: "I'm sorry..."

"How does it feel to be in the outside world?"

Luffy shook his head, not caring. So what if someone saw them kissing? It's not a big deal.

"I feel better, for the first time I feel like the world is so big, the sea is really vast."

Kaya smiled faintly, as if the sea breeze had cured her condition. Although Usopp often talked to her and told her some interesting adventure stories, being in her was obviously more pleasant.

"The journey will eventually come to an end, you can calm down and slowly enjoy the scenery along the way."

Luffy walked over and stood side by side with Kaya.

With a girl like her, of course, he had to use more artistic words, not like when he was with Nami, making jokes.

"Yes, Mr. Luffy." Kaya nodded.

"Call me Luffy or Captain... Huh?"

Suddenly, Luffy squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the distant sea.

He saw a ship.

There appeared to be someone on the ship, signaling with flags.

"Kaya, do you understand the flag signals? What does it mean?"

"Sorry, I don't understand..."

The two looked at each other, looking confused.
