As the sun set on the horizon, painting the sky with shades of orange, the Black Pearl sailed through the skies, moving farther away from the bustling naval fleet. The ship didn't descend when it lost speed but ended up extending its suspension in the air thanks to Nami's abilities with her wind. The pirate ship's hull cut through the air, providing a spectacular view of their audacious escape.

On the Black Pearl's deck, the crew gathered again as the captain approached. Amidst the organized chaos typical of that crew, Lucy, the female and equally eccentric version of Luffy, stole the scene with her peculiar antics.

"Shishishishi! Just look at this! Flying through the skies as if it's the most natural thing in the world! AWESOME!!!!" Lucy laughed, swinging her arms as if balancing on an imaginary trapeze.

"Luffy! You have a sister in the marines!!" Nojiko was the first to comment when they were all gathered.

"Hahahaha. This is Lucy, my dear twin sister." Luffy smiled.

"Twin? You guys are different." Lami remarked.

"True, brother, you used to be so similar to me! How did you change so much?!" Lucy raised her voice.

"I went on a diet." Luffy shrugged.

'Clearly, he's lying...' Zoro, Lami, Usopp, Nami, Reiju, Hugo, Nojiko, Hachi, Kuina thought collectively.

"AMAZING! AWESOME!" Lucy shouted with starry eyes.

"Really?!" Yamato exclaimed.

"That's incredible, Luffy-Sama!" Shirahoshi was amazed.

"Sharky!"

"WOOF WOOF!"

"Can you make one for me too, captain?" Bepo said.

"HOW CAN YOU GUYS BELIEVE THIS!" Nami shouted, as many others looked suspiciously at Luffy because this change didn't seem to match a simple diet, but no one questioned their captain further.

"Excuse me?"

"Incredible, besides the talking bear, there's a shark and a dog in the crew!" Lucy exclaimed, looking at all of them.

"Hm? Amazing, a woman with a tail? Are you sick or something?"

"Come here, little doggie, give me a paw!"

"A PERSON! HAHAHAHAHA, SO MANY FUNNY PEOPLE!"

"At the marine headquarters, it's so boring, everyone is so serious, and grandpa always makes me train."

As people listened to Lucy interact with them, they couldn't help but be stunned.

"Luffy, but speaking of personalities, your sister is so different from you..." Reiju commented.

"Despite the captain being an idiot sometimes, I have to agree with this woman." Lami spoke.

"Hahahahaha! It's true, Lucy is always fun." Luffy smiled lovingly at his sister.

"Anyway, we managed to escape Garp, the marine hero. That's a relief!" Bepo commented.

"True, but it was because grandpa let us escape. I doubt that would have happened if he wanted to; he could quickly come here or even predict our escape. Luffy shrugged.

"He's that strong, captain, Luffy-Sama?" Shirahoshi asked.

Hugo, still processing the situation, commented with a sigh. "Of course he is, he could have easily captured us if he wanted."

"That's true," agreed Luffy, "but I think grandpa wanted to give us a break. If he wanted, he would be here by now."

Nami looked at Luffy with a raised eyebrow, wanting to change the subject to another topic that no one had discussed yet. "Luffy, do you really think it's okay for your sister to be here with us? She's a Marine officer, after all."

Lami nodded, shaking her head. "Even by the crazy standards of this group, this is out of control."

Luffy just laughed, hugging Lucy from the side. "Ah, relax! Lucy is family, right? And she always brings a bit more fun to the party!"

"Yes, we're here after you guys managed to escape, wait! I should be here, shouldn't I?" Lucy began to analyze the situation and looked at everyone.

"..."
"..."
"..."
Everyone remained silent with Lucy thinking.

Lucy, looking around, finally realized the incongruity of her presence on the pirate ship. Her eyes widened, and without hesitation, she began shouting to the sky for help. "WHAT? I'M A MARINE! I SHOULDN'T BE ON THIS PIRATE SHIP! GRANDPA! LUFFY KIDNAPPED ME, HELP!" She immediately looked for her grandfather.

Luffy, seeing the growing confusion, decided to act. "Hey, hey, Lucy, calm down! It's not like that. Look, we were just having fun, and, you know, I thought it would be cool to have you with us on the ship."

Lucy looked at Luffy with indignation. "Luffy, I'm a marine! Do you really think I can stay here?!" She pouted.

Luffy scratched his head, laughing nervously. "Well, I thought you'd enjoy it. Plus, we have meat and a feast prepared. You still like meat, right? And our Reiju made some of the best delicacies!"

Lucy's eyes sparkled upon hearing about the meat. "Feast? Good food? But..." She still hesitated.

Luffy nodded, smiling. "Of course! We have tons of food. And I know you can't resist a feast, little sister!"

"But what about grandpa? What if he gets mad at me for letting you escape?" Lucy continued, concerned about family implications.

Luffy smiled confidently. "Don't worry about grandpa. He's tough, but deep down, he understands that we're just enjoying life. And as for you, well, you've always been good at handling things, right? It'll be fun having you around!"

Lucy, still indecisive, looked at the tempting offer of food. "I'm a Marine officer. I can't just... betray my loyalty."

Luffy shrugged. "Ah, don't be so serious, Lucy! We're just having fun. And I'm sure grandpa will understand. He's cool like that, think of it as a day off."

Lucy looked at the deck, where Usopp and Hachi were bringing food and drinks from the stock, and sighed. "Well, I guess I can't resist good food. But that doesn't mean I'm joining this crew and becoming your nakama. I'm a Marine, your enemy who will capture you one day!" She exclaimed in the last sentence.

Luffy laughed. "Alright, Lucy! Take it easy. For now, just enjoy the moment!"

Lucy looked at the meat, then at Luffy, and then at the meat Reiju was preparing at that moment. Finally, she sighed.

Lucy: "Fine, you idiot! But only because the meat looks good! Don't think that means I won't capture you in the future!"

Luffy celebrated, and the crew applauded as Lucy joined the party in a comical manner.

Luffy: "Great! Now, let's enjoy the party together, sis!"

And so, Lucy, even if reluctantly, found herself immersed in the madness and fun of the Black Pearl's crew.

While the party started lively on the Black Pearl's deck, the sun began to set on the horizon. The sky acquired warm shades of orange and red, creating a magical atmosphere. The Black Pearl, hovering in the air, became a dark silhouette against the colorful display.

Luffy, Lucy, and the rest of the crew were engrossed in conversations. However, the celebration was just beginning. Nami, with her navigation expertise, began preparing the ship for the next stage of the journey.

As the last sunbeam disappeared on the horizon, Nami gave the coordinates for the Black Pearl to start its gentle descent toward the glistening waters. The ship descended slowly, with Luffy helping to slow it down as the hull touched the ocean's surface.

As the Black Pearl began to move, the sails adjusted to catch the evening breeze as the ship sailed toward the horizon with the feast. Starlight began to dot the sky, revealing a starry and serene night.

While the deck was illuminated by a lively banquet, the Black Pearl, now sailing through the dark waters, left behind a trail of silver reflections. The crew, still in a festive mood, watched the scenery unfold as the ship moved forward.

Luffy, with his typical joyful expression, stood at the bow, feeling the cool night breeze. Lucy, still adjusting to the idea of being on a pirate ship, couldn't help but marvel at the beauty of the moment and the lively companionship of Luffy's crew.

The feast on the Black Pearl continued into the night, extending until the dawn of the next day. As the stars shone in the night sky, the pirate crew celebrated with abundant food, laughter, and music. The aroma of delicious delicacies lingered in the air, blending with the fresh ocean breeze.

The ship's deck was lit by hanging lanterns, creating a cozy and festive atmosphere. Improvised tables were set up, covered with a variety of exotic and colorful dishes. Bottles of rum circulated among the crew members, further enhancing the celebratory mood.

Luffy, eating voraciously and occasionally raising his glass in a toast, was the epicenter of the fun. Lucy found herself easily drawn into the contagious party. Her quirkiness and peculiar humor blended with the moments of celebration.

"Hey, everyone! You have to hear the crazy stories I've experienced with Lucy!" Luffy announced with enthusiasm, capturing everyone's attention.

He began to share funny and thrilling stories, narrating with his characteristic animation. Laughter echoed as Luffy recalled the peculiar events that had marked his journey with his sister.

"And remember the time Lucy tried to use hot pepper in Makino's kitchen? HAHAHAHA! Almost blew up the kitchen in agony!" Luffy laughed loudly, and the crew members joined in with infectious laughter.

Lucy, equally unabashedly laughing at her own stories, ended up joining the fun and sharing some goofy anecdotes about the captain. Laughter echoed across the deck, creating a relaxed atmosphere.

Between one story and another, Luffy, now drunk, took the opportunity to thank everyone for being part of his crew. "You guys are the best companions I could have at this moment! HAHAHAHA! Wouldn't trade any of you for anything."

As the sun emerged on the horizon, the Black Pearl witnessed the dawn breaking. The sunrise brought shades of pink and orange to the horizon, painting the sky with vibrant colors. The crew, despite the night of revelry, was filled with renewed energy, ready to face the challenges the new day might bring.

The Black Pearl continued its journey, sailing toward the next chapter of adventures, with the crew united by the spirit of freedom and camaraderie that only pirates and a marine knew.
