Chapter 1

The news quickly spread throughout the whole world like a fire. A sudden death of the infamous Straw Hat Pirates' captain, Monkey D. Luffy becomes everyones favorite topic. Different reactions and emotions to be seen and heard. Sadness and loss to those who knows him, and much happiness to those who hated his guts, specially the World Government and Marines.

In a certain private island, where the famous Whitebeard Pirate Captain Edward Newgate and Second Division Commander Portgas D. Ace laid in peace, gathered the most powerful pirates in history. Apparently, the marines decided not to stick their noses even though it's their once in a lfetime chance to catch those infamous pirates, but due to their respect to the former Vice-Admiral Garp they leave them alone.

In the middle of the small hill, placed a black coffin surrounded with flowers, everyone on their knees, heads bowing while tears continuously pouring, murmuring a silent prayer.

Shanks, the captain of the Red Hair pirates first to stand, tightening his grip on the straw hat closer to his chest. He look up in the sky with a bitter smile and stare at the coffin in front of everybody.

'How ironic' he mumbled. To think that all of those dangerous crazy fights that Luffy been through, the infamous straw hat captain lose his life not because any of those, just because of the fruit he accidentally ate was happen to be a Devil's fruit.

Everyone knows that eating that particular fruit twice means death. He remembered what happen to Blackbeard who dare to have it twice and just right after a week or two, they found him dead in a very brutal way. Unlike Balckbeard, Luffy didn't undergo the said painful death as the the Straw Hat Pirate Captain's heart stopped the very moment he ate it. The crew declined to believed it and call a help from Trafalgar Law who saves Luffy's life once. Yet, the said 'surgeon of death' announce that Luffy is undoubtedly dead.

He let a deep sigh and eyes focus on the the straw hat crew who deeply hurts about the incident. Who had thought that the indestructible infamous pirate was easily killed like that. His eyes turn at the rest of the Straw Hat crews whose still cannot accept the fact that they beloved captain was inside the coffin, lifeless.

His eyes wandered around to see other famous group of pirates belongs to Heart Pirates, Kid and the Whitebeard of course. Not to mention Buggy himself along with his crews crying like there's no tomorrow. He's quite shock to see his former vice-captain Rayleigh with the former Shikibukai Crocodile and Jinbei along with the Pirate Empress herself Boa Hancock present to the said funeral. He also notice the other ship on the bay belongs to the famous revolutionary group watching them from not far away. And also a marine ship belongs G-5 not daring to do anything stupid.

Shanks smile again painfully on how he recall the days he spent together with Monkey D. Luffy. On how the infamous captain easily attracted the people around him like a magnet, whether they are bad or good. He's indeed a charmer.

Garp, an ex-marine, Luffy's grandfather together with Kuzan to everyones surprise along with the two young Marine, Coby and Helmeppo also attended the funeral.

Shanks deep thought suddenly interrupted when a loud bang heard coming from the coffin. All of sudden, the lid flew up in the sky and pair of arms lifted up.

"Yosh! It's strange, how did I get in here?" Someone asked in a loud feminine voice. A pair of tan long legs stretch up and down then appeared in front of the coffin just to revealed a female version of Luffy, who they all thought died five days ago. "Wew, I almost suffocate in there.. I though I was a goner...shishishi." They all heard, as the female in front of them grinning cheekily, both hands on her curvy hips. She was wearing a very familiar red vest, concealing her chest and a loose rolled up faded jeans were cut short half way up her thighs, perfectly hugged her curves.

The female version of Luffy tilt her head in confusion as to why there were so many people gather in front of her. She seen a very familiar faces gawking at her. She turned her head and saw a gravestone from behind and a coffin next to her decorated with a flower in and out.

Her eyes suddenly widen in happiness when her eyes lands on the Straw Hat Pirates crew that gaping at her. Just right before she utter a word, she felt her knees weaken causing her to stumble. But right before it happens, Zoro's instinct snap and hurriedly catch his falling Captain-in-a-female-form.

The girl in his arms smile brightly and gently touch his cheek that cause him to blush. "Zoro... I."

"Don't say...say anything... Luffy ..." He hissed as he carried the female version of Luffy in a bridal style.

"Zoro.. I..." And her eyes caught Sanji standing next the green-hair swordsman as she noticed that she's surrounded by the rest of the crew. San... Sanji...everyone...I'm... I'M HUNGRY!" She yelled on top of her lungs.

"EHHH?!" Everyone in the island shouted in unison.

Robin and Nami, wiping off their tears smile and both murmur along with the rest of the crew. "Welcome back Captain-san -" "-Luffy!" "-Super welcome back!" "Yohohoho!"
