Chapter 7 – Yamato.

[Chapter Length: 1823 Words.]

Monkey D. Luffy POV

Beach near Shell City, East Blue.

[Open summoning card?]

[Yes] / [No]

"YES!"

[Think of who you want to summon!]

"Come, Yamato!"

A light appeared a few meters away again and dissipated a while later. Luffy was the only one paying attention to them, while the others pulled Lami out of the hole.

In the center of it when the light dissipated, there was a 263 cm tall woman with a type of mace in her hand, wearing traditional Wano clothes with various colors, but stylish. Her face was better than most women in this world, with snowy white hair mixed with blue finishes, and her red horns stood out with their yellowish base. There was no doubt that this woman was the most beautiful he had ever seen.

"HM?" The first thing the woman did was to look around in confusion, trying to orient herself.

Luffy hadn't said anything yet, looking at this beauty and how she was reacting to this summons, while Bepo and Kuina pulled an unconscious Lami out of the hole 100 meters away.

The woman who had just appeared first looked at the bear and the blue-haired girl with curiosity from that distance. Once she grasped the bizarre situation, her inquisitive gaze shifted to the man standing in front of her, a few meters away. She realized that he was studying her and knew that her appearance here was for some reason caused by him.

She hadn't said anything so far; she was just observing the environment with curiosity, looking at him calmly with an inquisitive expression.

Seeing that she was in silence, Luffy decided to break the ice.

"I recognize you as Kozuki Oden," he told the woman, who immediately widened her eyes upon hearing those words.

"You-You know me!!!?" she exclaimed, astonished but seemed happy that he recognized her as Oden.

"Yes, I brought you here," he said calmly.

"Who are you? Where are we? This doesn't seem like Onigashima or Wano!" She said, quite concerned.

"You can call me Kozuki Toki," he said simply, crossing his arms again and remaining silent in the next moment before answering her second question, since she'd be absorbing the first piece of information.

"You! You're my Toki!?" she exclaimed in surprise, but there was a blush on her face as she thought about the relationship between Oden and Toki.

'She might be 24 years old, but she's a virgin, so this is a normal reaction, even though I'm doing this to recruit her, not to sleep with her,' Luffy thought to himself.

'Since she insists on self-identifying as that man all the time, how can I win her over? By self-identifying as Oden's woman!!' Luffy mused.

"I am Oden, but I will call you my Yamato from now on," he said to avoid saying 'my Oden,' which would be quite odd.

"I..." She was at a loss for words.

"Do you not love your Toki anymore?" Luffy asked, pretending to be offended, but his question didn't match his current expression. He looked quite virile to be the woman he was referring to at that moment. But Yamato seemed oblivious to this.

"NO! I AM ODEN, OF COURSE I LOVE MY TOKI!!!!" She shouted immediately, trying to clarify any misunderstanding. After all, in Oden's journal, he loved his Toki, so she couldn't mess that up.

Luffy smiled awkwardly at the woman.

'How easy it is to have this woman as my comrade!' he thought. She's one of the best women he's seen in the anime and one of the strongest. Her strength is above that of the Three Disasters, second only to Kaido, her own father. But she's a bit eccentric; she self-identifies as Oden after reading his journal for years, so being like Oden is all she wants in life. So he'd be her Toki, making this figurative sacrifice.

"Listen, Yamato. I'll call you by that name, but you'll always be my Oden, okay? Just call me Luffy from now on," he told her, and she looked at him with curious eyes.

"Hmmm.... are you sure?" She looked at him suspiciously, not easily convinced in the end. After all, she wanted to act as a man.

"Yes, I'm sure, because you're here with me now, and away from that damn father of yours!" Luffy said confidently.

"Well, now that you know I'm your Oden and you're my Toki, I'll call you Luffy!" She finally said after a brief internal conflict.

"But you didn't tell me where here is!" She exclaimed again.

"Well, now I have a few things to clarify. Listen, Yamato," Luffy said, and she looked at him with determination.

"First, as you can see, we're not in Wano anymore, not even in the New World." He said, and she looked at him with huge eyes.

"WHAT? BUT MY COLLAR...!" She shouted in panic, but she was kind of an idiot, so she didn't even notice that her neck was now free.

"Look at your neck; I removed all the negative things when I summoned you. You're a free woman now," he clarified.

"HMMM??? But I'm a man! Even so, I don't believe it yet, but this is incredible!!! As expected of my Toki!" She said various bizarre things but, in the end, she grabbed him with such joy that he couldn't even react to the woman's enthusiasm. She lifted him up and placed him between her breasts, squeezing him tightly and laughing with happiness after many years in captivity in Onigashima.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA! THANK YOU!!!! YOU FREED ME, MY TOKI!!" She was shouting with joy, finally liberated from the shackles of her father after years.

"Alright, call me my Luffy! And let me go because I still have much more to say, my Yamato." He told her to calm down a bit.

She let go of him after a while. Meanwhile, on the other side of the beach, the Mink bear and Kuina were checking Trafalgar Lami's injuries, but they couldn't help but look in their direction as Yamato shouted with happiness and excitement. They wondered who this tall woman with a pair of horns was and why she seemed so happy.

"First, I'll remind you, call me my Luffy. I want our identities to be concealed. You will be my Yamato, and I will be your Luffy, understood?" Luffy told the woman in front of him.

"But I am a man!" She protested, playing the female role.

"As I said, our identities must be concealed, understood?" He told her, and she started to think about it.

"I guess... Then I'll be your Yamato, and you'll be my Luffy," she said, murmuring her dissatisfaction, finally.

"Another thing, my name is Monkey D. Luffy! I'm Ace's brother too," he said, surprising her even more.

"WHAT? YOU'RE ACE'S BROTHER! I REMEMBER HIM TALKING ABOUT YOU AND THINKING YOU'RE MY TOKI ALL THIS TIME!" She said, even happier.

"Listen, Yamato, I still have to tell you one more thing. Calm down!" He said before she tried to hug him again.

"I brought you out of Wano and sent you to East Blue. You're no longer bound to your father. Now we can have adventures together. There's no doubt about that, but I also want to invite you to join my crew as my first mate. In that case, you'll be my vice-captain," he said.

"I'm happy, my Luffy, but I'm also worried about Wano. That old bastard could harm the father I have to protect..." she muttered.

"Don't worry; we'll get stronger together. When we reach the Grand Line, we'll not only interfere with your father in Wano but turn the world upside down! What do you say?" He said, presenting his true proposal with a big smile.

"YES! LET'S FORCE THAT OLD MAN OUT OF WANO TOGETHER! I'LL KICK HIM OUT OF THERE! AND WE'LL TURN THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN! I CAN'T WAIT FOR THAT!" She quickly agreed. She initially wanted to confront her father more than anyone else, so apart from rescuing her from that place, he gave her a good reason to join him now. Not to mention that she wanted to experience her own adventures, just as Oden did in his time.

"I'm happy for that, my Yamato. Welcome aboard!" He said happily, and before he could react, she hugged him again.

While Luffy was being suffocated by her breasts, a message appeared in front of him.

[System: The first crew member has been chosen, the crew screen is now unlocked!]

[Crew: Yamato has joined as a member of your crew!]

'Hehehe. This is really interesting! My first crew member is a woman of Yamato's caliber, who must undoubtedly be much more powerful than me at the moment. But she is officially my Vice-Captain, as none of the others I summoned have accepted my proposal yet.' Luffy muttered internally but was celebrating while being hugged.

After ignoring the system screen, he wanted to make his last summon before continuing his rescue with Zoro. He had the last card, so after thinking a bit about who to summon, he decided who should be a priority right now.

"My Yamato, can you help that blue-haired woman, Kuina, and the Mink bear called Bepo, take care of that other unconscious woman in front of them? They may be possible members of our crew in the future," he asked Yamato after she canceled her warm hug.

"Hmm... I guess so," she said while assessing the situation on that side of the beach. They were currently tending to Lami's injuries.

"Okay, go there now, while I finish summoning our next crew member. Later, when we reach the Grand Line, I'll tell you more about our plans to free Wano from your father," he said, and she expressed a joyful face, agreeing to it.

"YES, I WILL!" She shouted with determination as she walked over to that side with her Kanabo, her mace, on her shoulder.

Instead of continuing to choose that space for his next summon, Luffy approached the beach's water and continued to walk through the sea's waves. He was affected by the weakness of the sea, but it was not enough to prevent him from returning to the beach.

"These shorts are too small for me! I need to buy a new pair from the store soon," he muttered as he walked against the small waves. He felt that his clothes were too tight and wanted to change them, but he thought he could do it later.

He walked until he reached an appropriate depth to summon the person he had in mind.

There were so many people he could summon, but he decided to choose her because she had great untapped potential. Even though she was a crybaby, Luffy would make sure she became a powerful individual.

[Open summoning card?]

[Yes] / [No]

"YES!"

[Think of who you want to summon!]

"Come, Shirahoshi!"
