I start my morning by spending more time with Vivi 's father in the Library. We 've moved on from Alabastan history to more general world history, and I 've set aside quite a few books about islands I know we 're gonna visit that I plan to take with me.

'Pardon me, I don 't know if this is rude to ask, ' Cobra suddenly starts. I look up from my book about Sea King migration habits to motion him to continue. 'Is Ed short for something? '

I raise an eyebrow. 'Oh, yeah. That 's not rude at all. My name 's E. D. Domino, I just go by Ed with my friends. '

He blinks a couple times. 'Your name is ' E.

D.

Domino? '

I furrow my eyebrow and nod. 'Is ' that a problem? ' I don 't remember this dude having any issue with Luffy being a D, but ' er ' I can 't remember super well, but didn 't he say some shit about D 's in the leaks I saw..?

He shakes his head. 'No, no. I 'm just surprised to see two of you on the same crew. It 's quite the coincidence. '
