🔶 POV: Alex (Third-Person)
The dining hall settles.
Plates vanish.
Hive-staff clean quietly.
Everyone looks full—or in the trio's case, temporarily full.
Alex scans the group, noticing their wariness toward the infinite hallways.
No one wants to explore.Good.They'd never return.
Alex claps his hands once.
"Breakfast is complete.Are you ready to leave?"
The question floats gently through the room.
Naruto nods.
Luffy nods.
Goku nods.
The ninjas, pirates, and DB crew all nod.
Except one.
Vegeta.
Vegeta turns toward the training door, eyes blazing with pride.
"I'm staying."
Alex nods.
Of course.
🔶 POV: Sanji (First-Person)
This is it.
My moment.
Sanji Mode ACTIVATED.
I sprint around the group, kneel beautifully, pose perfectly, heart-shaped eyes blazing—
"NAMI-SWAAAAN, ROBIN-SWAAAAN, BULMA-SAAAN, CHI-CHI-SAAAAAN—!!Please accept this humble cook's undying devotion—!!"
Nami: ignores me.Robin: smiles politely.Bulma: looks very married.Chi-Chi: gives me a murderous aura.
…Okay, Sanji.Abort.ABORT.
🔶 POV: Luffy (First-Person)
"Leaving is fine!The door is on the Sunny anyway!"
I grin.
This hotel is weird.But cool.
🔶 POV: Naruto (First-Person)
It's right outside Konoha.
Literally a walk.
Yeah. Easy.
🔶 POV: Goku (First-Person)
I can Instant Transmission here anytime someone is near the door!
So leaving isn't leaving.
Nice.
🔶 POV: Alex (Third-Person)
Alex summons the cosmic financial interface again.
He adjusts the One Piece cost by two zeros, exactly as he intended:
⭐ Room + Sleep Cost Calculations
Dragon Ball Universe:8 zeni per person for one nightCheap. Almost free.
Naruto Universe:360 ryō per personVery manageable.
One Piece Universe:10,000 BerriesAlex increased the cost by two zeros, just in case.
Nami winces.
Luffy doesn't notice.
Zoro grits teeth.
Sanji sighs.
Everyone pays.
Alex snaps.
Receipts vanish.
All debts cleared.
🔶 POV: Entire Cast 🔹 Nami
Thank GOD it wasn't worse.
🔹 Kakashi
Affordable. Nice.
🔹 Bulma
Pocket change.
🔹 Chopper
10,000 Berries is scary but survivable…
🔹 Zoro
I will NEVER admit I almost couldn't afford that.
🔶 POV: Alex (Third-Person)
Alex gestures.
Every door glows.
"Your exits are ready."
They open into the exact moment they left their worlds.
The Straw Hats see the interior of the Sunny.
The shinobi see the Konoha forest line.
The DB crew see Capsule Corps.
All synced to the time they vanished, not a second later.
Alex folds his hands.
"Thank you for visiting the Infinite Hotel."
Everyone steps through their doors.
Everyone returns safely.
Vegeta alone remains inside, already punching a hive fighter into a wall.
Alex watches him approvingly.
Then dims the lights.
The Infinite Hotel returns to a quiet heartbeat.
Awaiting the next moment of chaos.
