News spread fast about the Monkey D. siblings new bounty posters, that were now shown in the daily newspaper that the messenger Coo Coo birds were delivering all around the blue sea, wearing their bird pouch outfit for money and hat.

It caught some familiar faces attention, but it also caught some that weren't going to be helpful in the future for the two siblings, not that they knew that yet though, and wouldn't till the time came to.

Back in their home town Windmill Village at the familiar party's bar, Makino had just finished cleaning the tables for another busy day when the delivery bird arrived with the newspaper.

She placed the paper onto the bar counter with the bird squawking beside her, using her fingers to flip through the pages carefully, until two certain posters stood out to her in the newspaper.

Makino's lips perked up into a soft smile seeing the faces of (Y/N) and Luffy, proud to see how far the two have come from since their younger days, but also felt worried now seeing the bounty's on their heads. Yet she knew they would always have each others backs, and knowing that it could ease her concerns greatly.

........

Back at the now quieter mansion in Syrup Village where things were much better now, because of the Straw Hat's getting rid of the threat there. Inside her room sitting at the study table, Kaya was sipping on a drink reading over the books she had next to her.

She placed the glass down she was drinking from, now seeing the siblings bounty's on the newspaper she was also reading, and laughed fondly at (Y/N)'s normal grinning face staring back at her.

Kaya's eyes flickered to the bracelet that she hasn't taken off since their departure, the gems seeming to gleam brighter now under the lamps light above her.

Smiling softly she adjusted the object gently, turning back down to Luffy's wanted poster seeing the back of Usopp's head in the corner, causing her finger to longingly trace over him giggling happily.

.........

Walking through the Baratie's kitchen hallways with his pegged leg making sounds as he did so, Zeff was carrying two pieces of paper in his hands hearing the familiar sounds of the chefs and food cooking through his ears.

He avoided the other working chefs in the kitchen getting ready for another day of serving customers, and went towards the board at the back of the room.

Many other papers were pined up on the wall, but Zeff made sure the siblings bounty's pictures were in the middle of them all, showing off the two pirates who saved Baratie from complete destruction.

Once he pinned them both side by side together, he placed his hand on his hips staring over the bright photos of them staring back at him. An amused and fond grin breaks onto his features, happy to see their faces again before walking off getting back to work in the kitchen.

.........

Sailing along the vast blue ocean somewhere, Garp was sitting in his captains quarters on his battleship-class vessel. His ship's crow nests were shaped like a dog house, and the figurehead is shaped like a dog head, which has a bone in its mouth.

He held the bounties of his grandchildren in his hands, chuckling a bit softly to himself at (Y/N)'s normal grin that just got brighter since she was born, and how Luffy's goofy poses never changed either.

"A hell of a first bounty, kids." He mumbled to himself grinning, a bit worried also at how massive his granddaughters was, but knew nothing would touch her as long as Luffy was right beside her, "Couldn't be prouder of you two."

Garp moved his eyes to the slightly open drawer of the table, inside having a photo frame peeking out of it, and much younger Monkey. D siblings together in a family photo of sorts.

Though it wasn't a normal one, since Luffy was tugging on Garp's hair, with the older male scowling in response, and (Y/N)'s eyes closed frozen mid laugh at the pair sitting down on a rock in front.

Shaking his head he chuckles some more to himself, the corner of his eyes crinkle folding up the bounties to slip them into the drawer also gently. Just before he shut the metal closed, a familiar handmade bracelet shinned from being wrapped around the frame also.

.........

On an island very faraway from the East Blue sea, some more familiar pirates were resting from their previous adventure, all camping on the beach sand near some of the rocky caves.

Their captain was quite literally drunk from the amount of alcohol he had consumed since it was a party, and currently was sleeping in a small bunk that hang up from two poles in the sand, to get rid of his hangover that he knew would just get worse.

"This is an unusual place for a man of your..." Mihawk's voice was now heard, his figure walking along the sand to reach their resting area, and it had the pirates immediately going defensive, "stature."

Red haired Shanks narrowed his eyes peeking out through them seeing his old friend, and waved his hand around at his crew, "Come on, lads." He spoke tiredly leaning up in the makeshift bed, "We're in the presence of a mighty Warlord of the Sea. Show a little..." He paused yawing, and grunted, "respect."

All the crew listened to the captain placing away their weapons, and Shanks grumbles scrunching his eyes closed for a minute, "Afraid I'm not in the mood for a duel today, Hawk Eyes." He pinched the bridge of his nose, "I'm a wee bit hungover."

The Warlord rolled his eyes fed up with Shanks behaviour already, "I'm not here to fight." He denied in his heavy accent, "Not when you're half the man you used to be."

Shanks' eyes flew open hearing that comment, raising his eyebrows up at Mihawk in question, "I could still take you." He claimed staring at him annoyed, "And with one arm tied behind my back." He raised the sleeve of his jacket, in which his left arm was not found and his entire crew started laughing with him.

Mihawk had an unamused expression on his face, going to reach for something in his long jacket making some of the crew touch their weapons, "I recently ran into a duo who might be of interest to you." He pulled out two rolled up pieces of paper, and walked to hand over, "Siblings you mentioned long ago."

Yasopp took the paper scrolls out of Mihawk's hands into his own, extending them both in front of Shanks' and the crews line of sight. Seen on them were (Y/N)'s grinning face with her bounty, and Luffy's happy one with his bounty also.

This had Shanks standing up quickly from his spot now wide awake seeing the wanted posters, his lips forming into a giant grin, "(Y/N)! Luffy!" He exclaimed surprised taking the papers into his grasp now to hand over Luffy's one to Yasopp, "The kids really did it."

"Oh, look at her. My little girl." Shanks mumbled to himself feeling like a proud father, smiling softly staring at her face on the photo seeing how she's grown up, and tried to hold back any tears wanting to spill free from how proud he was.

He was relieved to see them both doing well after the last time he saw them, and was glad the siblings still were wearing the straw hats he had passed down to them. He just really wished he could meet them face to face, but no matter how much he wanted to, he couldn't back down on the promise he made to (Y/N) all those years ago.

Beckman, Roux and Yassop all gathered around their captain sharing wide grins, "No way. It's (Y/N) and Luffy. They're pirates!" Roux happily exclaimed pointing at the posters Beckman was now holding. Shanks laughed proudly wrapping his arm around Roux's shoulder, and Yassop placed his around the captains all looking at the posters.

"They're captains!" Beckman corrected grinning widely tapping the posters of the siblings, and the four all laugh together feeling very proud of the troublemakers, that now had the highest bounties in the East Blue.

"I guess we better watch our backs." Yassop teases raising his eyebrows at them, pointing a finger at the crumbled up posters that would be hanged up in their ship, gaining more laughter from the pirates.

Shanks couldn't control his excitement for the Monkey D. siblings getting their first bounties, as he held the papers in his finger up high in the air, "Bring out the reserve booze, boys!" He cheered turning briefly to the rest of his crew, who yelled their agreements.

"I thought you were hungover." Mihawks recalled the pirates words from before, giving him a side eye observation seriously, as he was now closer now to the group hanging out.

"Oh, lighten up, you somber old son of a gun." Shanks brushed him off easily, and mocked Mihawk a bit smirking as he went to offer friendly, "Drink with us."

The Warlord tilted his head to the side for a second, thinking if he should or not, before sucking in air through his teeth giving in to Shanks, "I suppose a drink wouldn't hurt."

"This is caused to celebrate!" Shanks declared grinning widely showing off the siblings he practically raised posters in the air, making the crew cheer back also and rose their bottles up chanting the duo's names, "(Y/N)! Luffy!"

.........

On the Going Merry ship that was sailing swiftly through the East Blue sea now far off from anything in sight, and as the sun shines brightly down on them, Nami was getting shown the three tangerine trees the crew had planted for her near the end of the ship's deck.

"So what do you think?" (Y/N) asked a bit hesitantly standing behind Nami with her brother, her hands clasped up to her chest hoping their navigator would like her present.

"It's a little piece of home to take with you on your journey." Luffy added happily at Nami's silence, one of his hands rested on his waist as the other was wrapped around his sisters forearm gently.

Nami still remined quiet glancing at the small trees in the white pots softly, the sea breeze blowing around her hair as she strolled a bit around them, and fiddled with the orange bracelet around her wrist.

"And I can whip up tangerine tarts anytime you or our lovely captain wants." Sanji voiced his offer from behind the siblings leaning against the railing, and sent (Y/N) a charming wink that had her giggling shyly.

Nami reached up to longingly graze the orange fruit hanging off the brunch, a small smile across her lips before looking back at the others with an even bigger one, "It's perfect."

The (H/C) haired girl cheered happily clapping her hands together with Luffy, sending Nami a sweet grin, making the other return it a bit flustered. The captains head turned to Sanji grinning at him next, that had him doing it back dopey and turned to Zoro up top, who toothily smiled at their captain.

"We actually have something for you guys too." Nami spoke up after a second, clearing her throat gaining the siblings attention as they shared a confused expression not knowing what it was.

Nami motioned for them to follow on after her now with her hand, walking up the three stairs to the upper deck where Zoro helped up (Y/N) gently. His rough thumb ran over her knuckles soothing, fingers intertwined briefly leading her with Luffy to stand in between him and Sanji near the railing.

"Usopp, set the main!" The navigator called out to the said male who repeated the order back, pulling down the new white sail that was tied up and slowly revealed what was now actually shown on it.

The Monkey D. siblings felt their jaw drops in disbelief at the massive Straw Hat jollyroger symbol on the sail, it blowing in the wind nicely and powerful. All the crew eyes went to the captains, and waited to see their reactions to the gift the had set up.

(Y/N) placed her palm over her parted mouth staring in awe at the magnificent sail, turning briefly to Sanji and Zoro, who both nodded softly smiling at her. Sharing a wide eyed look with her brother now, they both sprinted down to get a better look resulting in the crew to chuckle at their captains.

"Whoo-hoo!" They both cheered loudly throwing their arms up in the air happily, hands clasping each others to jump around in excited circles laughing, before Luffy picks up his sister to spin her around in a bear hug.

The swordsman and cook chuckled fondly watching the girl they adore laugh, and celebrate over the sail, feeling their hearts flutter happily knowing that they took apart in making her feel that way. That's all they wanted though, was to make her the happiest girl to ever live.

Nami came down to meet the siblings half way seeing the duo waving at her, and yelped a bit when they tackled her back a bit in a tight hug. She laughed loudly being squished in between them, and smiled softly feeling (Y/N)'s cheek nuzzle against hers, before they all pulled back from the grateful embrace.

Now leaving her brother and navigator below on the lower deck, (Y/N) bolted back up the stairs to the males still up there, and almost face planted if it weren't for their chests being in her palms way to stop her.

Zoro and Sanji's cheeks flush a red colour when she looked up at them through the hat's brim on her head, heavy breathes escaping her as she giggled giddily, and reached up wrap her arms around their shoulders loosely the best she could making one of the males hands to land either side on her waist.

The males embarrassed states got worse when her lips touched their cheeks, nose grazing their cheeks when she did so to each, leaving a thankful soft kiss near the edge of their mouths, instead of talking verbally.

Pulling back slowly she kept her arms around them, squeezing their shoulders softly and closed eyed smiled up at them, before speeding off also flustered back down to her brother on the Going Merry head.

With their wide eyes they followed her figure rushing away as quick as she came, the males expressions softening touching the spot where her lips were with their fingers gently, and sighed a bit love struck.

Though Sanji and Zoro went straight back to scowling at one another noticing they were still standing beside each other, and stomped off a bit away in opposite directs grumbling insults.

"Whoo! Hoo-hoo!" The siblings cheered more louder sitting together crossed legged on the sheep figurehead, hands holding each others that they raised in the air, and both laughed joyfully not being able to control their excitement right now.

Nami was sat below them on a barrel using her magnifying glass to read over the map, and hummed in thought spotting something weird, "The entrance to the Grand Line isn't too far off," She tells the captains up on the figurehead, "but I think there's a mistake on the map."

"What do you mean?" Luffy called back down turning around to glance down at her, making sure his sister didn't slip off the edge of the sheep head, and kept her figure in front of him in between his legs.

"Well, it looks like a river or a canal or something," Nami listed off a bit confused looking at the spot again, and furrowed her brows not understanding, "but it doesn't make any sense. These elevations show a mountain. I mean, how can a river go up a mountain?"

(Y/N) slid down first along the figurehead with the help of her airbending, and landed onto the deck with Luffy right behind her, "You're out navigator, Nini." She assured using the girls other nickname, tapping the tip of Nami's nose giggling, "You'll figure it out."

Luffy nodded in agreement also smiling his encouragement, making Nami release a exhale shaking her head to hide her bright grin, glad she was apart of this crew and had actual friends to call her own.

"Hey, (Y/N)! Luffy!" Sanji's familiar british accent calls out from below, them turning to see him at the top of the stairs smiling, and held out his hand for the girl captain to take, "Come here, belle. I've got an idea."

The Monkey D. girl pursed her lips glancing back at Luffy and Nami, who nodded quickly for her to go to Sanji, and felt her brother nudge her forward also. Stumbling up towards Sanji laughing nervously, she slips her hand into his larger and warmer one, making his ringed fingers curl in between hers squeezing softly.

He leads her down towards the lower deck where the barrels of food was stationed, looking down at her briefly and adoringly to leave a quick kiss on her knuckles taking her by surprise. He drops her hand reluctantly, using both his to grab a barrel and shuffle it into the middle of the deck tapping it.

Now understanding what he wanted to do, her face brightens up into an excited one once more, "Straw Hats!" She called out loudly making Luffy jump down beside her grinning, "All hands on deck for a cast-off ceremony."

Now all the crew members came out from their spots in the ship hearing her order, walking up to circle around the barrel on the deck. She was in between Zoro and Sanji's figures like always, with Luffy across from her, Nami beside him and eventually Usopp on her other free side.

Sanji tucked his hands into his pants pockets glancing over the crew, before landing on the girl he adored beside him, "I'm gonna find the All Blue." He promised raising his foot to rest on the barrel confidently.

(Y/N) gave the cook a soft look in response hearing his dream, before sharing a wide grin with her brother who nodded knowing they were next. Together they raised their left foot onto the barrel, and in sync declared their shared dream, "I'm gonna be King of the Pirates."

Zoro smiled also flashing his teeth at the girl, before lifting up his foot to also place next to her on the barrel, and spoke his promise holding onto his one sword tightly nudging her shoulder, "I'm gonna be the world's greatest swordsman."

"I'm gonna draw a map of the world." Nami proudly assured placing her foot onto the wood, and shared a bright smile with (Y/N) across from her, before one with the entire crew around them.

It was now Usopp's turn making everyone turn to him patiently, "I..." He paused remembering his childhood memories, before a determined look appeared on his face placing his foot on the barrel, "am gonna become a brave warrior of the sea!"

Everyone now laughed happily glad this was where they ended up together, and wouldn't have it any other way now, not with everything they have, and will be going through as a crew and a family of friends.

"This is it, crew. The Grand Line." (Y/N) spoke up after the laughing died down staring at each one of them, before landing on Luffy who smiled some more thrilled, and they both raised one of their arms up into the air, "Nothing's gonna stand in our way!"

All of the group joined in on the loud cheering for their first official voyage together on the seas, as an pirate crew now. Her (E/C) eyes land onto Zoro and Sanji who were already smirking down at her softly, making her giggle joyfully and grab onto their hands tightly in hers, lacing their fingers together to raise them up also celebrating.

This was just the beginning of a great adventure for the Straw Hat pirates, and with many, many more to come along the way.

However none of them were aware, but somewhere in the vast Blue Sea, there was an unknown threat using the tip of his blunt to burn the papers of the Monkey D. siblings wanted posters. Waiting, planning and preying for his next attack to take them down.
