[the first sound is a long inhale and exhale, as of someone smoking]

...some kind of den-den mushi...?Ah. Hello, is anyone receiving me? The idiot who handed me this thing said I could reach a number of people all at once. You get people dropping in on you a lot, do you? And here I thought this was somewhere that damn warlord sent me

[(You spent weeks looking for him, and after Luffy vanished, the burden of looking for both of them increased. And then Usopp. But you never stopped did you? Because people don't stop looking for their friends in a place where people vanish or end up dead.

And it's not like you don't trust your abilities; quite the contrary. But you do know that on normal circumstances, chaos will always interrupt - whether you or your crew are separated or not. There will be signs of their presence. But this time, your guts gave you nothing. You had felt nothing; heard nothing.

It's been quiet.

And the Strawhats are never quiet.

This is a fact. It's the way you live now, amongst all this noise.

And to see your crewmate okay, alive, here, when he should have been months ago, when the rest of the crew needed him -- when it had been your responsibility to hold things together in Luffy's absence. And now there's this mess.

Sanji speaks like he just got here. And that angers you a lot doesn't it? Even if you are happy? Acknowledge it.

What are you going to do?)]
