Chapter Text
“Pupupupupup… pupupupupupu… ca-lick.” the transponder snail sounded. The captain got up from his bed in the captain’s quarters to answer the small snail on the desk.
“Hello?” Luffy let out a quick yawn after speaking into the snail, voice gruff and deep from just waking up. He was quick to take a seat and lay his head down on the desk he was at as tiredness overwhelmed him.
“Hey, darling! Sounds like you just woke up, huh? Sorry if it’s the middle of the night, I can never know where you’re at to know the time.” (Y/N), the newly wed wife and longtime girlfriend before of Luffy, spoke through the snail. Your voice was enthusiastic, how Luffy’s usually is, and sounded like you had already started your day.
Keeping the snail mic to him, Luffy walked to his closet after getting up to get one of his signature red vests and a new pair of shorts. “No it’s morning actually, I was awake for a couple minutes before you called… I smell Sanji’s cooking though!” That sure was something to excite Luffy, as he thought of the delicious food he’d eat for breakfast.
You let out a quick quiet laugh as you thought over his words. “Well that’s nice… I’d have to meet him someday… when I get a day off that is.” Luffy hums to himself focusing on not tangling the mic chord and his clothes as he gets dresses. “Has anything happened as of recently, honey? I’ve been a little busy with work and haven’t looked at the newspapers in the last few days.”
“Uhm… nothing too interesting… I defeated Doflamingo and uhm… I became friends with that one warlord Traffy! Nothing big though,” Luffy muttered as he finished getting dressed. You laughed heartily at him not seeing these as a big deal. “My crew have been improving and getting stronger, it’s nice and relaxing on the ship, we have a couple days till the next island.”
“That good to hear, Lu. I did see your bounty raise to 500 million belli, I’m proud of you because that’s what you want and you are doing good for these people.” You say softly into the snail… gazing at the picture of Luffy smearing your wedding cake into your face that day on your desk. Rayleigh was the only witness and also the officiate. It was small as they say. “I’ve been overflowing with work here after your incidents, it’s been chaos with disaster after disaster and other new rising pirates.”
“Sorry, didn’t mean to cause you so-“
“Don’t apologize, I know your goals and what you want to achieve, don’t let me stop you cause I’m a Fleet Admiral. I’ll support you before my job,” You interrupt Luffy, stopping him from feeling bad.
“Well it goes both ways!” he laughs, “I’m not gonna beat up you if I see you cause I’m a pirate and you’re in the navy, I’ll probably give you a quick kiss and get my crew to leave and not cause problems.” You smile at his explanation, feeling warmth in your chest at his honesty and sweetness.
“And I’d happily accept your kiss and get my marines to back down. We’ll call it a truce and maybe meet in a hotel…” A blush covered Luffy’s face as he laughed to himself with a dorky smile on his face.
“Oh, that’s how we’ll settle this truce for sure!” Luffy grabbed his strawhat and put it on his head before sitting briefly at his desk once more. “Well I hear Sanji yelling that breakfast is ready, and I’m quite hungry in the morning, so I’ll talk to you another time, hopefully in person.”
“Of course, I’ll try to get some time off and come to the ship at some time, I’d use my devil fruit but i like to experience everything, ya’know. I’ll let you go now, I love you, bye honey,” you softly speak, already missing him before hanging up.
“I love you too, (Y/N), I hope we can see each other soon, bye.” Hanging up the phone, Luffy ran to the kitchen in hunger. He had been hungry since he woke up and he couldn’t wait to dig into Sanji’s amazing cooking after smelling it from his room.
“SANJI! The food looks amazing… I’m hungry!” Luffy say in his spot at the table, taking in large amounts of food at a time.
“Slo- I was going to tell you to slow down but you do this everyday, Luffy,” Nami mutters to herself, looking over to Robin to share a laugh together. The two girls continue conversation together as the boys talked.
“Luffy don’t eat all the food! We only have so much until we can get to another island to restock, and Nami says it’s quite a while to the next island.” Sanji told Luffy, watching as Luffy only slightly slowed down and still devoured food. Sanji sighed to himself as the crew sweatdropped, ‘usual Luffy’ they all thought.
