Alvida's eyes scanned Luffy as he proclaimed his ambitions to the entire city. He was different from before, no longer wearing simple, tight-fitting clothes that seemed too small for him. Now, he was imposing, his aura even more befitting of the man he had become. Dressed in black with his front exposed, a pistol at his waist, his entire appearance screamed power and audacity. A mix of emotions bubbled within her—a combination of admiration, respect, and gratitude. The man before her was not just the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates; he was someone who had radically changed her life, giving her a new perspective and self-confidence.

Watching him, Alvida remembered the time when she was considered ugly and overweight. Before the mysterious transformation of the Sube Sube no Mi, she would always make her crew say she was the most beautiful, but it was an excuse to deflect her lack of self-confidence. She knew they spoke out of fear, but this man spoke sincerely. Despite saying she was still ugly and fat on the outside, he exuded a confidence that she could be beautiful. In his unique sincerity, Luffy had accepted her as she was and saw the beauty that lay beneath the surface. He declared her his soulmate, a connection that transcended appearances and physical changes.

Now, in the presence of the man whose existence had inspired her to become who she was, Alvida felt her heart beat faster. He was not just an ally now; he was someone for whom she harbored deeper feelings. Hearing his bold words echoing in the square, Alvida decided to act on her own desires.

Thoughts swirled in her mind as she advanced, determined. The man before her was not just her captain now, but someone she desired in ways that would not have been imaginable in her old days. The change Luffy had brought to her life now urged her to make a decision, one that could alter the course of their destiny and relationship. Alvida's heart pounded as she approached, ready to express her feelings in an unexpected way.

The punch he called the "Love-Love Punch" had indeed worked wonders on her. Thanks to that, she had changed, becoming beautiful to be with her man. She had left her old crew and followed her new dream, standing by this man.

As Luffy approached, casually enjoying his biscuits, Alvida felt a mix of nervousness and excitement. Each of his steps seemed to bring a palpable change to the surrounding atmosphere. She didn't hesitate; she couldn't wait another second to express the whirlwind of emotions within her.

Without wasting time, Alvida ran towards Luffy with determination. Her feelings, once kept in her heart, exploded in a bold and fearless demonstration. With a decisive gesture, she aimed her lips at his, sealing a kiss that transcended words. The world around them seemed to freeze for a moment as that intense moment united two souls in a unique way.

Alvida's kiss was laden with meaning, an expression of years of gratitude, love, and mutual transformation. She knew that from this moment on, Luffy would become the most important person in her life. The initial embarrassment she felt dissipated in the certainty that this was the path she had chosen.

After the bold kiss, Alvida pulled away from Luffy, but the gaze between them remained intense, as if they had shared something deeper than words could express. Luffy savored his biscuits with his characteristic nonchalance, while Alvida was immersed in the realization of having found the man who had changed her life.

Alvida looked into Luffy's eyes with a shy but joyful smile. "I've finally found you, my love!" she said, revealing her emotions sincerely.

Luffy, in turn, laughed casually. "Hahahaha. You look stunning right now! And bold!" He appreciated the visible changes in her, recognizing the journey they had both undertaken.

"Let's be together now!" Alvida proposed with a smile, her eyes shining with eagerness to embark on this new phase alongside Luffy. Their destinies were entwined, and both were ready to face the future together.

[System - Crew: Alvida joined as a member of your crew!]
The system notification surprised Luffy, and he thought, "Wow! That was fast; I didn't even need to invite her." He looked at Alvida with satisfaction. "Yes, now you belong to my crew and are my people," Luffy said, smiling at the woman before him.
"That's good..." Alvida murmured, a blush coloring her cheeks.
"Brother?! Who is she?" Lucy arrived at that moment, falling like a rubber on the ground and looking curiously at Alvida.
"This is Alvida, my woman!" Luffy announced loudly.
"Luffy, you have another woman!?" Yamato appeared beside them, displaying a slight sign of dissatisfaction.
"Yamato, I've told you I'm a selfish man, but don't worry. None of you will be dissatisfied with your needs," Luffy said, recalling the conversation he had with his three current partners. He had made it clear that he would have more women, and, with a bit of persuasion, had convinced them. He had no shame in expressing his desire to have at least a dozen of them by his side.
While Luffy was talking to his crew and sister, the people around were astounded by all these events, from Luffy shouting to the entire city to Alvida confronting him with a kiss, and the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates declaring her his woman.
Suddenly, people in the corner of the square became agitated, starting with a murmur and escalating to loud voices.
"They are the marines!"
"They are in the square."
"Is Captain Smoker there? Is he here to arrest Straw Hat Luffy?"
"Who is leading the group?"
"You fool, that's Garp! The man who fought against the Pirate King and is a hero of the navy!"
"What's a big shot like him doing here?!"
"What will happen?"
"The Straw Hats won't stand a chance!"
"Let's leave the square; this will soon turn into a war zone!"
"Yes, better not get involved in this!"
The rhythmic sound of marine boots echoed through the square of Loguetown, reverberating between the buildings surrounding the area. The military noise announced the imposing arrival of a Marine force, led by the formidable Vice-Admiral Garp, whose reputation preceded his presence.
The marines advanced through the square with visible determination on their faces. Garp led the group, his serious and focused gaze indicating that he was on a serious mission. The other members of the Marine followed him, and among them was a young man with pink hair, whose gaze was mixed with conflicting emotions upon seeing Luffy again.
As the marines advanced, a wave of whispers began to spread among the city's inhabitants. Some nervously exchanged glances, others raised their eyebrows in anticipation, and the bravest whispered to each other. The news of the possible confrontation spread rapidly, causing a growing agitation among the city's inhabitants. Some backed away, concerned about the imminent clash between pirates and the Marines, while others approached to observe the unfolding events.

Garp spotted Luffy among the crowd below the execution platform with a unconscious Buggy beside them, and his expression hardened even more. He was determined to capture his grandson and put an end to Monkey D. Luffy's pirate antics. Coby, on the other hand, felt a mix of respect and concern as he faced his former friend who had once helped him.

Luffy, in turn, remained calm, looking directly at Garp. He knew the confrontation was inevitable, but his fearless spirit did not waver in the face of the impending battle with the Marines. The square was now filled with palpable tension, awaiting the unfolding of the clash between the forces of the Marines and the pirates challenging the status quo.

"Luffy-Sama! Marines incoming!" Shirahoshi came to his side with concern.
The tension in Loguetown Square was almost palpable, a nervous silence settling in as Shirahoshi warned about the arrival of the marines. The audience around watched with curious and apprehensive looks, aware that a confrontation was about to unfold between the pirates led by Luffy and the Marine forces.

"Marines are coming; we have to escape!" Lucy shouted, and Alvida looked at her with a confused expression.
"But aren't you a marine too?" She asked Luffy's sister.
"Hm?! Oh, right, Shishishishishi." Lucy scratched her head as she became aware of that.

In the center of this tense scenario, Luffy observed the arrival of Garp, Smoker, and, to his surprise, Coby. The Straw Hat captain's excited expression brightened upon seeing his acquaintance after not seeing him for a month, alongside his grandfather.

"Coby!" Luffy shouted, his voice full of enthusiasm, as his gaze met that of the young marine. Still beside Garp, Coby was the same as ever, displaying a mixed expression of anxiety and fear, a reminder of the situations he had been through with Luffy and hearing about the exploits of the man who hitchhiked with him to Shell City.

Coby, alongside Garp as recommended by his grandson, was visibly disoriented at the imminent encounter with Luffy. Garp, calm and laid-back, chewed his biscuits, observing his two grandchildren with an affectionate gaze. The former vice-admiral had gone to Shell City to recruit Coby, pleased to see the potential that Luffy had mentioned earlier.

"Luffy..." Coby murmured, his words carrying a mix of emotions, from gratitude to a certain apprehension about what was to come, as he knew deep down that he wasn't ready to fight Luffy yet.

Garp's gaze, as he walked in his peculiar way, conveyed a serenity that contrasted with the imminent confrontation. He was there not just as the Vice-Admiral of the Marine but as Luffy and Coby's grandfather.

Beside Luffy, Alvida watched the scene with surprise, realizing Coby was there. Her expression was a mix of curiosity with her former jack-of-all-trades in the Marines.

"Hey, Coby, so you became a marine?" Alvida asked, staring at the young man with an apple in hand, as if he were a potential victim in the upcoming moments.

"Who-who are you, and why do you know me?!" Coby, somewhat frightened by the presence of the woman beside Luffy, sought refuge next to Garp. However, the vice-admiral was completely absorbed in his biscuits, seemingly ignoring the situation as he observed his grandchildren.

"Coby, you don't remember; this is my wife, Alvida. Your former captain when you were a prisoner!" Luffy announced, displaying a confident smile.

Luffy's words made Coby's eyes widen in shock. "A-Alvida!!!" he exclaimed, surprised by the revelation and reliving memories of his time as a prisoner under her command.

The woman before Coby was no longer the same as he remembered; her previous form, marked by fat, had transformed into extraordinary beauty.

"HOW... HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE!?" he wanted to shout, feeling a mix of shock and disbelief. Internally, Coby questioned how Alvida had transformed so drastically. Old memories of when Luffy proclaimed that she would become the most beautiful woman in the East Blue echoed in his mind. At the time, Coby thought his captain was delirious, but now, seeing the transformation, he realized that Luffy had been right all along.

"Coby-kun, don't be surprised. My husband always said I would become the most beautiful woman in the East Blue!" Alvida replied with a smile laden with arrogance.

"Do you know what they're talking about?" Lucy asked curiously.

"Maybe Luffy-Sama met her before he met us..." Shirahoshi pondered, emitting a curious tone.

"Sharky!" Megalo agreed with an affirmative nod.

"Damn Luffy! He said he'd have multiple wives!" Yamato growled with displeasure.

"I still haven't..." Coby was lost for words, but was interrupted by Garp at this moment.

"Monkey D. Luffy! *Crack* I'm here to arrest you. *Crack*" His grandfather spoke while munching on his biscuits.

"Hello, Grandpa! *Crack* How are you? *Crack*" Luffy began eating his biscuit too.

"Damn Luffy, *Crack* you took my caramel-flavored *Crack* biscuit..."

"That one's really *Crack* good, Grandpa. What *Crack* flavor is that in your hand? *Crack*"

"Corn flavor *Crack*. It's really *Crack* good..."

"I see *Crack*..."
*Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack*
*Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack*
*Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack*
*Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack*
*Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack*
*Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack*
*Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack*

The only sound in the square was the noise of bites on biscuits, between grandfather and grandson, while all opposing groups looked on without knowing what was happening. As the marines were lost, unsure of what to do, since their vice-admiral was in front of the pirate eating biscuits, Smoker looked at this scene behind Garp with a furrowed brow. Coby was stunned, seeing that the marine hero was as peculiar as Luffy.

Luffy's group was also lost, Lucy with an animated look, Yamato curious, Shirahoshi trying to study Luffy with his grandfather, and Megalo nervous, realizing that the situation was not favorable. Comedy permeated the atmosphere as biscuits were devoured in a surreal atmosphere.
*Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack*
*Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack*
"*Crack* I visited the Goa Kingdom, *Crack* you created a huge mess that shook the world *Crack." His grandfather spoke in a serious tone.
"*Crack* Makino isn't a great queen *Crack*" Luffy laughed.
"She will be, *Crack*, no one will question her, *Crack* not after you said she was, *Crack* Shanks' wife. *Crack*"
"That's *Crack* good..."
"But still, *Crack*, I have to *Crack* arrest you in the name of the navy *Crack* and justice."
"I understand, *Crack*, you're just doing your, *Crack* job... grandpa *Crack*"
"So, *Crack* get ready *Crack*"
"Everything, *Crack* right... *Crack*"
*Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack*
*Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack*
*Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack*
*Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack**Crack*
"Are you just going to keep eating?!" Smoker couldn't take it anymore and shouted angrily. It had been five minutes since the start of this strange scene of incessantly devouring biscuits.
"Captain Smoker... they fell asleep..." said a dazed soldier.
Luffy fell asleep in front of Garp, and his grandfather did the same.
*Snore**Snore*
*Snore**Snore*
The silence in the square was broken only by the synchronized snores of the two, pirate and marine asleep, while the people around tried to understand what had just happened.
The square was enveloped in a strange silence, interrupted only by the continuous snoring of the two sleeping pirates. Yamato was stunned, unable to comprehend how such a serious situation had turned into a scene of collective slumber.

"HOW CAN THEY SLEEP!?" Yamato exclaimed, her expression of disbelief intensifying.

"Yamato-Sama, Lucy also fell asleep..." Shirahoshi murmured with a tone of fear, watching the surreal scene before them.

*Snore**Snore**Snore*

The persistent snores of Garp, Luffy, and Lucy echoed in the square, amplifying the perplexity of those present. Even Megalo, the shark-leopard, seemed confused by the situation.

"WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS FAMILY..." Everyone thought, looking at the siblings and the grandfather asleep in the middle of a possible fight between Monkey D. Luffy and Monkey D. Garp.

*Boff* The bubble on Garp's nose burst, bringing him back to consciousness. His eyes narrowed upon seeing Luffy and Lucy sleeping peacefully in front of him.

"LUFFY! HOW CAN YOU SLEEP IN THE MIDDLE OF A SQUARE, YOU TOO, LUCY, I'M GOING TO THROW YOU INTO A JUNGLE TO LEARN SOME MANNERS!" Garp growled as he threw a punch at Luffy, waking him abruptly.

"Hm?! Grandpa! I think I slept... hahahahaha!" Luffy felt the pain in his head and looked at his grandfather retreating a few meters away, he laughed awkwardly, scratching his head.

"You think you slept!?" Everyone exclaimed, still stunned by the bizarre turn of events.

"Anyway, let's end this. I came to arrest you, my rebellious grandson. Get ready!" Garp roared, throwing his bag of biscuits away and staring at Luffy seriously.

"Okay, grandpa. Let's end this." Luffy also threw his package of biscuits away, assuming a serious posture. They were about to clash once again, but the surrounding atmosphere still exuded a comedic tone due to the surreal nature of the situation.
