Summary
Luffy pressed a hand to his heaving chest, running his fingers across the puckered scar tissue. He took a long, slow breath, and then another. That’s done, he reminded himself firmly. It’s over. Ace is gone, but Sanji’s safe now–
Sanji’s face flashed before him, then Ace’s. His smile – his dying smile. Nami had told them all how Sanji had smiled when he’d left them. When he’d given himself up, to save them. When he’d sacrificed himself, because Luffy hadn’t been there to protect him. Because Luffy had failed – he’d been failing for years, he realised now. Ace had died with that question still on his lips, and Sanji had almost done the same.
Is it good that I was born?
---
A series of one-shots set during the journey from WCI to Wano, and the aftermath of the huge amount of trauma Sanji suffered at the hands of the Vinsmokes and Big Mom.

Summary
It was easy to forget, sometimes, that everyone in the New World was there for a reason. With how strong the Strawhats had gotten, with how strong he had gotten, the thought that they could ever be hurt, let alone defeated, crossed Zoro’s mind less and less. It was at times like these, however, when he remembered. When he couldn’t afford to forget.
Everyone in the New World was there for a reason. Everyone in the New World was there because they were powerful – powerful enough to survive the absolute insanity that came with the Grand Line. And sometimes – just sometimes – even the Strawhats were faced with a dilemma like this.
Zoro looked at his nakama, fallen apart, and wanted his captain.
---
The Strawhats underestimate a group of marines, and face the consequences.

Summary
“Robin-chan!” He shouted, his voice strained but carrying across the empty street to the receding tram nonetheless. Robin had been struggling to her feet, pushing off the hands of the people helping her up, looking for a way to get back to him, crossing her arms in front of her in vain, desperately trying to find a way to get him back – but she paused at his call, and he saw her look back at him. He kept smiling. “Go get Luffy – I’ll be waiting!”
The tram turned a corner and was gone, taking Robin safely with it. He kept watching the empty street, finally letting his smile drop as heavy footsteps approached. Gleaming black shoes filled his vision, and Sanji stared resolutely ahead as the man from before crouched by his side.
“Sacrificing yourself, eh? How noble.” Sanji snorted, curling his lip.
“Hardly,” he said, placing all of his conviction into his words. “Robin-chan will be back for me, and she’ll bring far more than you and your shitty henchmen can handle.”

Summary
It had occurred to him at some point after they had left Wano Kuni that the Vinsmokes must have passed through nearby waters, since Whole Cake Island had been so close.
Which was why, when the Strawhats docked at the first island they spotted after leaving Wano, Sanji was so nervous he almost considered staying on the ship while the rest of the crew explored the town.
—
The Strawhats make their first stop after Wano, and begin to understand that the Vinsmoke name isn’t so easily left behind.

Summary
He'd been walking towards the door. He'd wanted to leave, had been desperate to leave. The explosion had come from in front of him; he remembered being thrown backwards by the force of it. But then - he also remembered the same feeling from behind him just a few seconds later, and then the sound of a third explosion from the side -
We were bombed, he realised, and almost laughed.
Of course. Of course, during the one and only solo diplomatic mission that Keith had ever been sent on, something like this would happen. Of course.
--
Keith is sent to negotiate a peace treaty with an alien community, but things go very, very wrong.

Summary
The picture was a cheesy smile in front of a birthday cake. Sanji's blue eyes were more alight than the eighteen candles, looking right at the camera — at Zeff — with joy and love. Zeff's phone was ringing, and he'd been waiting for this call all day.
But he didn't want Sanji to know that, so he stared at the photo and let it ring five times before answering.
"What?" Zeff said, jamming the phone between his shoulder and ear, picking up the carrots and chopping away loudly.
"Shitty old man." Sanji's voice returned, and the tension fell out of Zeff's jaw.

"Boss Zeff!"
He groaned and sat up, reaching for his hat. "What is it?"
"There's a problem in the dining hall! One of the customers wasn't happy with his meal and attacked the kid!"

Summary
The first book he picks up appears old, the paper yellowed and the edges worn. It's hard to make out in the dark, but by running his hand across it, Zoro's able to read the embroidered letters on its fabric cover.
“The All blue.”
The words linger on his tongue, the title feeling more like a confession than anything. There's something about the book that stands out to him- some strange intuition telling him it's more important than it seems.
The lantern flickers.
“Put it down.”
-
Sanji never escapes Germa. The Straw hats find him anyway.
