It's been some time since I've joined the straw hat pirates. Thing's were going rather well. I'd usually wake up, train, brew some potions, draft a few ideas and then just do whatever I wanted.
The straw hats were, as expected, very welcoming and easy to get along with. Though the constant shouting contests between Google Maps and Gordon Ramsey was a bit annoying at first.
Currently, I was brewing some potions as I'm quite sure we needed them, if the next few events go according to what I remember. Potions of regen were the most important to make but also quite difficult as they took quite long to brew. I also made some more ender pearls as you can never have enough ender pearls.
I made my way to the deck to get some fresh air after hours of potion brewing. I got there to find Luffy and Ussop fishing, Zoro in the crow's nest as usual and Vivi reading a book with Carue beside her.
"Hey guys." I say. I am not the most social person but that doesn't mean I won't talk with my own crew.
'"'Hi Techno/Quack"" They all replied. I then went to a side of the deck and lay down and started reading a book I brought. While reading the book I also thought back on how crazy all this was. I do that often but it's still difficult to believe.
*Some Time Later*
I closed the book I was reading and got up. It was around midday and I was already feeling bored. With nothing better to do I decided to do what a lot of bored people do, sing.
'Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
A singer in a smokey room
The smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers, waitin'
Up and down the boulevard....'
^It's A great song. Listen to it on spotify or wherever^
I started singing Don't stop believin' by journey as it's a great song and honestly It's quite upbeat. I made my way around the deck and sang as I stopped on the railing and stared out into the vast sea.
I closed my eyes and continued humming the song when-
"Land Ahead." I heard Zoro shout from the crow's nest, and sure enough as we got closer I saw an island which would act as the introduction to an interesting race of people and an equally interesting duo of pirates.
In front of us was , none other than, Little Garden.

Hello, is it me you're looking for?
Well I'm here. I basically had writers block for no reason as I wasn;t sure how to write a chapter bridging the two arcs.
So, sorry about the wait.
Now be sure to leave your ideas and criticisms in the comments and also if possible give me a few stones.
Ja Ne.
