Luvfiless
Eli Reyes is fifteen, from Tulsa, Oklahoma, and has never seen the ocean. Then one unremarkable Tuesday morning he walks out his front door and falls straight into the middle of the Grand Line.
He has no map, no money, no idea what a Devil Fruit is, and only the vaguest secondhand knowledge that somewhere out there a guy named Luffy is probably stretching his arms and having a great time. What he does have is a dry sense of humor, a stubborn refusal to completely fall apart, and-against every reasonable expectation-a berth on the Moby Dick as the Whitebeard Pirates' newest, most confused cabin boy.
It should be temporary. It should be simple. Get on the ship. Find a way home. Don't die.
But the sea has a long memory, and so does Eli-even if he doesn't know it yet.
