Zoro stared at his captain with a weird look while Sanji simply shrugged and said "Help from who?"

Luffy had a serious look on his face that reflected just how serious he took the situation before he responded "From Yuki of course"

The straw hats stared at Luffy with flabbergasted looks on their faces and Sanji couldn't help but hold Luffy by the collar and yell "This isn't the time for joking! Nami's life is on the line here"

Zoro removed Sanji's hands away from Luffy and said to him calmly "Can you really ask for his help?"

Luffy had an angry look on his face for being doubted so he exhaled some steam from his nose and replied "Yes I can"

Seeing how confident his captain was acting, Zoro frowned slightly before he nodded and said "Please do"

"Oy moss head, are you really believing in this crap? That guy clearly didn't have any devil fruit powers!" spoke Sanji not understanding why Zoro was acting that way but Zoro simply narrowed his eyes at him and replied "I rather believe in this than watch our navigator die without doing anything"

Sanji froze slightly and he was about to respond but suddenly Luffy yelled at the top of his lungs startling Vivi who was staying beside Nami's bed and even the sleeping Nami as well.

"YUKIIIIIIIIIIIII, PLEASE HELP ME"

….

Meanwhile, at the wind's grandma, Yuki was having a nap after having done a terrifying amount of training to the point that he almost killed himself but suddenly a terrible yell echoed in his mind that made him jump and it startled many people as he made a human-shaped hole in the ceiling...

'What the hell Luffy, can you speak without yelling? My soul almost left my body... for real' spoke Yuki through dimensional link back to Luffy who widely grinned and yelled again "OHH I CAN REALLY TALK TO YOU, THIS IS AMAZING"

'I said stop yelling for fuck's sake' Replied Yuki while feeling like something was about to burst in his head.

Meanwhile, Luffy was receiving weird glances from his crew including from Vivi who just came out from the inside of the ship and asked them "What's going on? Who's Luffy talking to?"

The trio on the deck didn't know how to respond to her and they simply watched as Luffy kept conversing seemingly to himself but he appeared happy and when he finished talking they couldn't help but approach him

"Oy Luffy what's going on?" Asked Usopp feeling weirded out by what just happened and Luffy simply grinned and replied "I just spoke with Yuki, he said he can't come in person but he will send a friend of his with a log pose for an island that should be nearby and has good doctors, Nami will be fine shishishishi"

"Eh? Really?" Vivi was excited and she almost started jumping up and down from happiness but the rest of the crew were still doubtful.

"Well, Luffy seems to have talked to someone but I don't how or if they can truly send help… This better not be a joke…" Spoke Sanji while Usopp explained to her about their brief encounter with Yuki…

"Hmm, he fell from the sky? That's indeed weird" Spoke Vivi feeling intrigued by this mysterious person. So, they waited patiently for the needed help… However, even after half an hour had passed, there were still no signs of this help…

"We were tricked! I'm going to kill this guy if I ever find him!" Sanji's eyes almost ignited on fire and the rest of the crew had similar looks and Luffy felt annoyed that they didn't trust his friend…

However, suddenly a voice echoed from behind Luffy startling the latter into jumping away with goosebumps all over his body… "Ahum, Boss sent me to deliver something for the lot of you;.. can you please stop ignoring me? Although I don't mind If you insult him a bit more"

"Who are you?" Spoke Zoro with his hand on his sword ready to draw it at any time while Usopp and Vivi simply screamed in terror while yelling " GHOOSTTTT" and Yurei couldn't help but shoot them a bony middle finger before he shrugged and said "My name is Yurei, Sorry about staying silent all this time, I simply enjoyed hearing you guys insulting that bastard Yuki, it was like music to my ears"

Zoro's eye narrowed slightly as he asked "When did you arrive on our ship?" the rest of the crew also started to calm down so Yurei simply smiled apologetically with his creepy face and said "15 minutes? Maybe 20, I'm not sure"

Every single person in the crew that had a brain couldn't help but feel a chill at the thought of this guy standing beside them yet they weren't able to sense him at all, and eventually, Yurei simply observed the crew and found a guy wearing a hat and said

This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.

"You must be the captain of this crew Luffy, here's what the boss entrusted me with, make sure to keep it safe, he appeared very angry when he got it… He said some bastards ripped him off, although he probably deserves it… He said if he doesn't ruin that guy's life, he wouldn't be able to sleep at night... Tch"

Luffy picked the log pose and tried to hug Yurei while saying "Thanks, finally we can treat Nami!"

However, Yurei simply phantom phased that rubbery hug while saying "no homo, By the way, this log pose will lead you to drums island… Give it back to Yuki when you are done less he taxes you for it... Mission over, see you around" Then, he disappeared into thin air surprising the crew even more...

"Wait! What kind of place is that" Sanji tried to question Yurei but Vivi had an excited look on her face as she rushed toward Luffy and picked up the log pose before she said "This is great, if his words are to be trusted, Nami-san will truly be saved, drum island is famed for its doctors!"

The crew's morale instantly went up and Luffy simply smiled and said "Shishishi, told you we can rely on Yuki"

Zoro and Sanji suddenly had a terrible feeling in the pits of their stomachs for having doubted someone that tried to help them and each decided to repay him in their own way when he joins their crew!

…

Meanwhile, Yuki was currently fuming as he muttered "These bastard revolutionaries dare rip me off for a mere log pose, fine I will consider it as a small investment for the future but the war is on!"

Yuki's heart burned for the fact that he had to pay at least 20 times more than the worth of the normal log pose price. However, it didn't even cross his mind at all that he paid it with the things that he stole from these same people. That's how twisted his currently aching heart was….

However, he couldn't keep contemplating revenge for long as Dragon suddenly announced "Get ready, we will arrive at our target in 20 minutes… Make sure to follow the plan and always prioritize the life of the citizens"

Yuki froze slightly and stared at the distance, and seeing his absentminded look, Sabo suddenly approached him and asked "That's the Bull kingdom we plan to free today, I'm sure you already know what kind of character their king has, enslaving his people and killing anyone that voices any doubts to his rule are just a few examples of the evil things he does…"

"Hmm, is he trying to mimic the celestial dragons or what?" Spoke Yuki calmly and Sabo was surprised slightly by how much he understood the world before he replied "Indeed, he probably inspires to be like them… like scum"

Yuki stared at him silently before he replied "Well, I can't wait to see if you are as good at cleaning those scum as you are at cleaning the ship"

Sabo froze slightly before he burst out laughing feeling that the stress he always feels at the possibility of failing their mission becoming a bit lighter as he patted Yuki and said "Thanks, I can't wait to see if you will stick to the plan or start robbing people wantonly"

Yuki's lips twitched slightly and he couldn't help but respond with a righteous tone "What kind of person do you take me for?"

"A thief?" Spoke Sabo with a grin which made Yuki feel like punching him especially when he saw Koala giggling behind them so he shot her a glare and responded

"I just help people keep their precious stuff safe, such as the assholes on this ship-" However, just as his words died down, he found a rain of swords and spears falling down on him forcing him to use his observation Haki to the max and started dodging in every possible way while yelling

"You bastards!"

"We are simply helping you train your Haki"

"Don't dodge you bastard! Let my spear penetrate you"

"Tch he's too good at dodging"

Countless murmurs echoed throughout the ship as Yuki fought with the crewmates, but Dragon could tell that the morale was at its highest, and it was all thanks to that man…

"What a strange kid…" Thought Dragon as he saw a large hammer hit Yuki on the side and threw him off the ship but Sabo barely caught him and brought him back

'I wonder what kind of destiny awaits him?'

20 minutes later, Dragon's ship docked on a hidden part of the island that was prepared beforehand by spies they had in the kingdom and they were welcomed with cheers and tears…

"How's the situation?" asked Sabo to one of the spies to learn about the situation on the island and apparently it was far worse than they thought as the corrupted king found out about the existence of people wanting to rebel and started executing anyone he had the smallest doubts that he could be a spy

Sabo's eyes ignited in anger and so were the eyes of the rest of the mercenaries as they started voicing their thoughts of wanting to hurry up their plans to free these poor people.

"Did you prepare a base of command for us or was it discovered as well?" Asked Dragon calmly and the spy nodded firmly and said "We prepared a base to host your men, and it wasn't discovered as we used only the most trustworthy people to construct it"

"That's a relief, you guys did well. Leave the rest to me and my men" Spoke Dragon calmly and the spy nodded gratefully with tears falling from his eyes, however, Yuki suddenly moved at lightning speed and held that man by the neck and pointed a pistol that he recently acquired at his head before he asked "Who are you?"

"Yuki what are you doing!" Yelled Koala as she leaped at Yuki to lower his hand but she couldn't move him as his gun was kept aimed at the spy's head.

The rest of the spy's suddenly aimed their guns at Yuki for threatening their leader which created a weird standoff between them and the unwilling revolutionaries… An awkwardness that Yuki thrived in!

AN:

Yo everyone, hope you are doing well.

I would love to hear as many opinions as possible on this new endeavor I plan to take, so please comment or private message in discord on what you think.

I'm planning to start an Original novel soon, but I feel like I need to improve my writing skills a bit more if I want to reach the standards I'm envisioning, and recently, I've been receiving paid requests for personal writing, and I found them quite different and fun to do, although some of them are weird to say the least... To each their own taste I guess...

Anyways, my question is, will you guys be interested if I start offering this kind of service?

Let me know your thoughts
