Chapter 19 Sea Journeys

At Sea, Day 1

Morning dawned crisp and blue. Nami smiled as she watched the horizon light up. She loved the open waters of the Grand Line. Tranquil mornings like this were priceless. She watched peacefully as small knock up streams fired off in sequence far off the port side. A morning water show. A gentle adjustment to their course avoided intercepting the dark shadow swimming along off their starboard side. The squawk of seabirds caught her attention for a moment, but it was too early for news coos. She smiled as the day brightened and a gentle breeze added to their tail wind. Quiet steps caught her attention as Sanji emerged from the kitchen bearing a breakfast tray and mugs.

'Good morning! ' he greeted in a cheerful whisper. 'How are you feeling today? I made miso soup for breakfast. I can fetch the fish and veggies if you 're up for it. ' He sounded hopeful.
