Once Luffy had helped Bon Kurei onto the deck, they sat down for a chat. Luffy, ever direct, asked, "So you can't swim?"

Bon Kurei nodded, his flamboyant personality shining through. "Yes, darling! I ate a Devil Fruit, and as fabulous as it made me, it also cursed me with that annoying little drawback."

Usopp, always curious, leaned in. "Oh, which one?"

Without warning, Bon Kurei smacked Luffy’s face with his palm. The crew immediately went on alert, but before they could react, Bon Kurei’s body transformed into Luffy’s exact likeness. His voice matched perfectly, except his mannerisms were slightly off. "Don't joke around," Bon Kurei said with the weird facial expression of his.

The crew was shocked. Bon Kurei grinned, relishing the attention. "I can copy the faces of anyone I touch with my right hand and their bodies too." With a flourish, he transformed into Usopp, his long nose protruding comically from his face. "See?" he said in Usopp's voice, copying the marksman's mannerisms perfectly.

Then, with a quick touch of his hand, Bon Kurei became Chopper, shrinking down into the tiny reindeer’s form. He pranced around for a moment before slapping his hand on his cheek again and transforming into Zoro, complete with green hair and a stern expression.

As he prepared to reach for Nami’s face, his hand outstretched, Coby stepped in. He grabbed Nami by the waist, pulling her close to him. "No," he said firmly, his grip protective.

Bon Kurei shrugged, not pushing the matter. "Fair enough," he said, then shifted back to Usopp’s form and finally returned to his original flamboyant self. Luffy was amazed, while the rest of the crew couldn’t help but be impressed by his mimicry.

Meanwhile, Coby called out in his mind, initiating the process. The familiar voice of the system chimed in.

[Skill Scan initiated on 'Mane Mane no Mi'. Analysis in progress… The Mane Mane no Mi allows the user to perfectly mimic the appearance and voice of anyone they have touched, making it a highly effective tool for disguise and deception. However, due to its limited combat and utility capabilities compared to other Devil Fruits, the estimated cost for acquisition is 25,000 SP. Please confirm if you wish to proceed with the Skill Scan and acquisition.]

Coby weighed the cost, noting how this ability could provide strategic advantages for infiltration or gathering information, even if it wasn’t primarily a combat skill. He’d make his decision soon, but for now, he observed as Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper quickly became friends with Bon Kurei, their laughter filling the deck of the Going Merry.

As Mr. 2, Bon Kurei, demonstrated his abilities, showing off different faces he had copied, including that of King Nefertari Cobra of Alabasta. When the face of King Cobra appeared, Vivi’s reaction was immediate—a visible tensing of her body as realization hit her.

When his ship appeared nearby, Bon Kurei gave a dramatic pose. Standing near the ship's rail, Bon Kurei struck a dramatic pose. "Oh phooey, time to part ways already? What a pity... Don't cry, my silly billies! Farewells are an inevitable thing if you sail the seas! But remember this!" He paused, spreading his arms wide. "The length of the time spent together has no bearing on true friendship!" His voice carried over the deck, and the crew couldn't help but be drawn in by his theatrical flair.

Luffy, Usopp, and Chopper, all standing nearby, cheered in response, fully immersed in the moment. "Let's meet again!" they shouted, waving as Bon Kurei prepared to return to his ship.

Vivi didn’t seem to register the joyous atmosphere around her. Instead, her gaze was fixed on Bon Kurei, the worry in her eyes growing more intense with each passing second.

As Bon Kurei gracefully leaped from the Going Merry onto his own ship, he called out, "Let's go!" His crew responded in unison, "Yes! Mr. 2, Bon Kurei!" Their voices echoed across the water as they prepared to set sail.

At that moment, Vivi’s face turned pale. The realization of what had just happened sank in fully. Her eyes widened, and she turned to Coby, grabbing his arm. "Coby... That person... He had my father's face!"

Only then did the crew realize the strange person they encountered was a Baroque Works agent.

“He can turn into any of us,” Zoro said, his expression serious. “We can’t even trust our friends if he does.”

Nami nodded, her eyes narrowing as she thought about the implications. “He only copied Luffy, Usopp, Chopper, and Zoro’s faces. We need to be careful.”

Zoro crossed his arms, considering their options. “We should consider ourselves lucky we met him this early. Now we can come up with countermeasures before he causes too much trouble.”

Coby, standing off to the side, couldn’t help but smile. The mark of Nakama was coming, and Coby was ever excited. But that was for later.

Their journey continued, and soon the Going Merry reached the port city of Nanohana. The ship docked, and the crew began to disembark, each of them eager to explore the bustling marketplace. Just as they arrived, Luffy dashed off into the streets, his stomach guiding him, not his brain.

Coby watched him go with a small shake of his head. “Luffy and his appetite…” He muttered, amused. It was time for Luffy’s reunion with his brother Ace, and Coby didn’t want to intrude on that moment. Instead, he focused on helping Vivi and Nami as they ventured into the market.

Walking through the lively streets, Coby stayed close to Vivi and Nami. The city was filled with vendors selling all sorts of goods—fresh produce, spices, weapons, and more. The air was filled with the smell of exotic foods and the sound of merchants calling out their wares.

Nami admired the jewelry on display, her eyes shining with excitement. "These are beautiful, Vivi!" she exclaimed, picking up a delicate necklace adorned with small, shimmering gems. Vivi, still focused on their mission, gave a polite smile but didn’t seem as enthralled.

"Yeah, they’re nice," Vivi replied, though her mind was clearly elsewhere. She scanned the market, ever vigilant for any signs of danger or Baroque Works agents, as if the whole country was under attack.

Nami, however, wasn’t going to let the opportunity slip by. She glanced at Coby, who had been standing nearby, watching the exchange with a relaxed expression. "Hey, Coby," Nami called out, holding up the necklace she had picked. "What do you think?"

Coby stepped closer, examining the necklace with a smile. "It’s perfect for you," he said, reaching into his pocket to pull out some money. "Boss, this one’s for my girlfriend."

Nami's eyes lit up with delight, and she beamed at Coby as she accepted the necklace. Without hesitation, she leaned in and kissed him on the cheek. "Thanks, Coby!"

Just then, Vivi, who had been trying to remain composed, couldn’t help but pout slightly. Coby noticed her expression and chuckled softly. Without missing a beat, he turned back to the vendor. "And give me another one, that azure one over there."

Vivi’s eyes widened in surprise as the vendor handed over the necklace. Coby passed it to her with a grin. "Here, Vivi. You deserve something nice too."

Vivi’s pout transformed into a bright smile as she accepted the necklace, her mood visibly lifting. "Thank you, Coby!" she exclaimed, her voice full of gratitude.

Meanwhile, Nami’s smile faded slightly as she watched the exchange. She shot a playful glare at Coby, clearly jealous. "Hey! You said it was for your girlfriend!"

Coby chuckled, rubbing the back of his head awkwardly. "Well, Vivi's our princess, right? She deserves it too."

Nami huffed but didn’t press the matter further. She was still content with her necklace, though the jealousy was still apparent in her eyes. Vivi, on the other hand, couldn’t stop smiling as she admired the necklace Coby had chosen for her.

With their new accessories in hand, the trio continued through the bustling market, gathering supplies for their journey. The stalls were packed with goods from all corners of the Grand Line, and the scent of exotic spices filled the air. As they walked, Vivi glanced around, her eyes scanning the crowd for anything suspicious.

"We need some new clothes to blend in," Vivi said, stopping in her tracks. "I'll send Sanji to—"

Before she could finish, Coby interrupted her, a smirk on his face. "If I know anything about that pervert, he’ll just buy dancer clothes," he said, snorting.

Sanji’s eyes widened in mock outrage. "How did you know?" he demanded, looking genuinely surprised.

Coby chuckled, shaking his head. "Come on, ladies. Let’s get the clothes ourselves. I don’t trust this guy with that kind of task."

Nami and Vivi exchanged amused glances before nodding in agreement. Sanji pouted but didn’t argue, clearly outvoted. Together, the three of them made their way to a nearby clothing stall. The vendor greeted them warmly, presenting a variety of garments ranging from simple tunics to more elaborate outfits.

Nami browsed through the selection, picking out a few pieces for herself. "What do you think, Vivi?" she asked, holding up a light blue dress against her body.

Vivi smiled, nodding in approval. "It suits you, Nami."
