6 Chapter 6: Meet Again

"She won't be stealing for the past five years, right? But I haven't heard any news about [Cat Burglar] Nami." Looking at Nami's appearance, Luffy couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Without waiting for Nami to enter the warehouse, Luffy directly showed his appearance and said, "Stealing is not a good behavior, beautiful lady."

"!"

The voice that suddenly appeared behind, made Nami, who was planning to go into the warehouse, stun in place and then turn her head quiveringly.

Familiar Straw-Hat, familiar face, but compared to the kid five years ago, it can now be described as manly. The face under the Straw-Hat is now carrying a gentle smile.

In an instant, Nami's heart, which had been beating wildly because she thought she had been discovered by the pirates, finally calmed down and said, "Lu... Luffy?"

Looking at Nami's panicked face, to his surprise after seeing her own appearance, Luffy was also a little stunned. She is no longer the immature little girl she was five years ago.

At this time, Nami has orange hair that reaches her waist, and it looked quite attractive against the slim-fit long-sleeved shirt with blue stripes. The blue jeans on the lower body wrapped around the straight and slender legs. The buttocks and simple clothes show the charm of Nami.

Looking at Nami, who was similar to the image in the original book two years later, Luffy was a little dazed for a while. It wasn't the revealing clothes in the original book, but it made Luffy feel amazing. He's not the original Luffy—the kind of idiot who doesn't know what femininity is.

After calming down, Luffy looked away slightly and said, "I didn't expect to meet you just after going out to sea, and I was thinking of going to find you after I got the boat, Nami."

"It's really you, Luffy!" Looking at Luffy, who was smiling slightly, and hearing Luffy, Nami finally came back to her senses, and then, in Luffy's stunned eyes, she jumped into Luffy's arms and hugged Luffy.

It was only the second time that the two met, but for some reason, there was no sense of strangeness at all. With Nami's boobs touching his arms, Luffy didn't know where to put his hand, so he patted Nami's back lightly.

Nami, who hugged Luffy excitedly, was not ashamed. After feeling the pat on her back, she let go of Luffy, and her bright eyes fell on Luffy's face again and said, "Five years without seeing you, now your appearance makes people feel safe, Luffy. You were just a skinny kid when we first met!"

"Didn't you also change a lot? The little girl who's crying in my arms at that time has become a slim beauty now, I'm fascinated by it!" Luffy replied.

"I didn't expect you to talk like that." Hearing Luffy's compliment, Nami's heart was overjoyed for no reason, and her mood suddenly became happy.

"Why are you here? Are you still doing things like stealing the pirates' treasure after 5 years?" Luffy asked and was curious about Nami's presence here. Even if it was the original book, it should have been in Orange Town, occupied by Buggy Pirates.

Hearing Luffy's question, Nami stuck her tongue out first and then said, "Of course, I know you're going to sea this year, so I thought about going back to my old business and preparing some money. It seems that I haven't worked in five years, so I'm really unfamiliar, and I was discovered by you so easily."

Luffy shook his head amusingly and said, "Although you are hiding well, ordinary people really can't find it, and also here in the weakest sea, East Blue, there are few strong person. It will be different when it comes to the Grand Line. To do this, you just need to be my navigator, and I will protect you."

Although he said that, Luffy also considered the strength of the crew in the future, so before entering the Grand Line, he planned to explain the uses of Haki to those who joined later.

"If you're that strong, then I'll leave my safety to you, Captain!"
