"What exhaustion..." Luffy murmured, finally opening his eyes after the last memories and looked around, trying to locate himself.

When Luffy woke up, he realized he was in a house and saw the window overlooking the sea. Recognizing this view, he noticed he was at Nami's house, and it was late afternoon.

'That means I stayed just a few hours or am I a day, but I doubt it's the latter...' Luffy thought and noticed someone in the bed next to him.

"Hm?!" He realized it was Nami herself, who was beside him in bed.

"LUFFY-SAMA!" Shirahoshi was heard, and Luffy looked at the window to be faced with a huge eye outside, looking at him curiously.

"Did she return to normal? Well, I got knocked out by my own mind..." Luffy couldn't help but speak softly.

"SHARKY!" A voice from behind the huge mermaid grumbled.

"Hello, princess. You too, Megalo." Luffy smiled.

"Are you okay, Luffy-Sama? I returned to being large... I wanted to come into the house too..." She said with a bit of regret.

"Wait a moment, I'm coming out." Luffy held her.

"Uhum..." She nodded with a smile.

Luffy sighed and yawned, getting up from the bed to check on someone and see how the others are, to find out how they dealt with the situation and its consequences.

Luffy left the room and went to the stairs at the end of the corridor, descending to the lower floor of the house; he encountered female members of his crew with Nojiko in the kitchen destroyed by Nami.

"LUFFY!" Yamato, unsurprisingly, was the first to notice and go to him.

"Are you okay?! We were really worried about you and Nami!" She hugged him before he could react.

"Hmmmmmmm...." Luffy being suffocated by her huge breasts, couldn't make any comprehensible sound.

"Yamato, don't suffocate him like that!" Kuina complained from his side.

"Hm?! Oh sorry, hahahaha!" She laughed and released Luffy, smiling at him with a cheerful expression.

"*Sigh* I'm okay, a bit sore, but I'll recover quickly; can you tell me what happened right after I passed out?" Luffy asked, wanting to catch up.

"Well, first off, our ship came out of your pocket to its real size as last time, with the poneglyphs, and as we heard you two talking up there, Shirahoshi and Megalo are giant again outside the house, waiting for you to shrink them again." Reiju said simply.

"The ship wasn't crushed by seawater, was it?" Luffy became worried about seawater filling that hole.

"No, it rose as soon as the water sank, but it's in the same place, while those strange stones are at the bottom of the water..." Yamato said in front of Luffy.

"Understandable, and the Fish-men?" Luffy wanted to know.

"Well..." Kuina hesitated.

"Arlong was found 4 kilometers away, at least his dead body, after being caught in Nami's explosion. Just like the majority of the fish-men, only a few remained since they were in the center of the hurricane, and some survived because they fell in better places than others, but not far from death... and some of those... died in the middle of their fight against Nami, caught by the elements you were throwing at each other, or crushed by your bodies as you had a battle that consumed and destroyed 30% of the entire island... dramatically changing the landscape!" Nojiko said what Yamato informed them after searching for the fish-men; all this information shocked them a lot, especially the result of a battle between Luffy and Nami, which lasted only 15 minutes; they knew that if the final confrontation had taken place on the island and not in the air, this fight could have caused much more destruction.

"Well, that's not surprising, but I'm finding Arlong an idiot now; the fool provoked Nami, making her lose control. It's like saying he played with fire after everything, and I bet he didn't expect to get burned by it; it was practically suicide." Luffy mocked; the fish-man brought about his own death in a moment of insane state.

"I can't blame him for thinking that way..." Reiju said simply.

"And Nami? Is she okay?" Luffy asked.Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

"Nami is fine too, from what I saw; she's just exhausted." Nojiko said.

"That's good, since Shirahoshi and Megalo are outside the house, where are Zoro, Usopp, Johnny, Yosaku, and Chouchou?" He wanted to know; there were only women here.

"You defeated them so easily, it was so cool!"

*SLAP!*

The palm of Luffy's hand met Nami's back, making her tremble with the impact.

"..."

"In the end, you killed Arlong with that huge hurricane."

*SLAP!*

Another slap echoed through the air, and the crew's attentive eyes witnessed each moment.

"..."

"When you turned into Garuda, you were so powerful and giant."

*SLAP!*

Another hit, and Nami's surprised expression remained.

"..."

"You gave me the biggest battle I've ever had in my life, it was quite fun, despite being dangerous."

*SLAP!*

The sound of the slap accompanied Luffy's enthusiastic words, creating a unique cadence.

"..."

"I never imagined I could fight by destroying mountains and devastating forests with every move!"

*SLAP!*

Each impact was felt, and Nami continued to process the words and slaps.

"..."

"We were like two giant mechs!"

*SLAP!*

The rhythm of the slaps followed Luffy's narrative, involving everyone in the celebration.

"..."

"Everyone looked so small compared to us."

*SLAP!*

The crowd watched, amid laughter and astonishment, the unique dynamics of this interaction.

"..."

"The coolest part was flying!"

*SLAP!*

The slaps continued to resonate, punctuating each shared memory by Luffy.

"..."

"We exchanged punches in the air like titans!"

SLAP!

Each hit was a chapter in the story of this epic battle.

"..."

"It was so cool!"

SLAP!

The sounds of the slaps echoed in the festive atmosphere, creating a unique celebration melody.

"..."

"As expected of my navigator!"

SLAP!

Luffy's words were followed by another slap, concluding the peculiar performance.

"..."

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

SLAP!

Luffy's contagious laughter mixed with the sounds, forming a symphony of celebration.

BOOM!

"CAN YOU STOP SLAPPING PEOPLE ON THE BACK!" Nami shouted, punching Luffy in the chest, resulting in a comedic explosion that caught everyone's attention in that festive moment.

*BOOM!*

Luffy exploded into a nearby tree, creating a commotion.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's the Nami I know!!" Luffy got up from the debris with a big smile on his face, tapping his hat to remove the dust as he put it back on his head, but in doing so, he only messed up his hair even more, making the scene even more hilarious. He then returned to Nami, laughing at the situation.

"YOU!" Nami growled, her desire to hit Luffy again increasing.

"Nami, you can't treat your husband like that!" Nojiko warned beside her, assuming a serious posture.

"HE'S NOT MY HUSBAND, NOT UNTIL HE GIVES ME 10 BILLION OR GIVES ME A KINGDOM!" Nami shouted, expressing her demands with a touch of indignation, challenging her womanizing captain with a hint of mischief.

"Hm?! A kingdom? I guess that's fair, although it's quite greedy! Great, I'll create a kingdom on this island, and you'll be my queen, a great title for the wife of the emperor of the sea!" Luffy announced, his response eliciting incredulous looks and laughter from the entire crew.
