It had all started out as an innocent remark made by one of the Host Club’s customers.

luco_millian and her crossover universe. I apologize for any confusion that may come as a result...It had all started out as an innocent remark made by one of the Host Club’s customers.
Sanji had brought out his latest cake creation and inevitably nearly dropped the masterpiece in an effort to fend off both Luffy and Honey-sempai so that others could try a slice before it disappeared completely.
The girls naturally found this amusing, and one had made the mistake of wondering out loud who would be able to stomach the most cakes. Luffy-kun, or Honey-sempai? Both boys heard this remark and with a spark of electricity flying as their gazes met, the challenge was set.
This explained why the cafeteria was currently packed after school hours with students, both male and female, watching in horror and fascination as cake after cake was brought out of the kitchens, up to the stage at the back of the room, and devoured as if each were little more than a piece of sushi.
The store-bought cakes had run out about an hour ago with no sign of either boy stopping, and it was now up to the tireless efforts of Sanji and the rest of the kitchen’s staff to quickly supply the contest with more baked goods until one (or preferably both) of the males’ stomachs decided being a black hole was overrated and collapsed in on itself.
“Another!” came simultaneous shouts as two empty plates were held up to be taken away.
This unfortunate endeavor was naturally costing the Host Club a fortune, and Kyouya had been against it from the start. But the demands of the two stubborn-headed pigs, as well as the overwhelming pleas from all their customers had nearly overruled his decision in putting his foot down (not to mention gnawing it off to the bone).
However, it was Ace who had caused his resolve to crumble. Ace! The man who had promised to keep an eye on his little brother and not allow him to cause any trouble if he were accepted as a customer, had gone off and joined the plea!
He had even gone as far to place himself in Kyouya’s debt by saying, “I’ll owe you one.”
To have a member of the D. family indebted to him (especially if it was Ace) was quite tempting indeed, and so the club’s vice president caved, and gave his approval for this folly.
A part of him now regretted it, seeing the huge hole this was now putting in the club’s funds. Who knew Luffy and Honey-sempai were such formidable forces at this!
In an attempt to ease the debt, Kyouya had auctioned off two sets of raffle tickets to the ladies; the prize being a picnic with the winner.
He was also the mastermind behind the bookie currently taken bets amongst all the boys.
“Another!”
Roronoa Zoro had refused to take part in such activities, stating that it was a suckers bet - Luffy would obviously win. Not only would he win, but he would have plenty of room for the dinner party he was ending later this evening.
The unwavering belief Zoro held for his friend was awe-inspiring, but as the contest wore on, not even Usopp could keep his doubts at bay.
Growing tired of watching the display, Zoro headed over to the kitchen to see what action he could find there, only to be kicked right back out again by Sanji, who claimed the cooks couldn’t afford a distraction when they needed to be working their hardest.
What possible kind of distraction he could be, Zoro had no idea. The idiot chef was spouting nonsense bigger than the crap that came out of Usopp’s mouth. All he planned on doing really was stand inconspicuously in a corner, watching the blond in hopes of seeing some of that fighting style he knew was there come to the surface while trying to keep things running smoothly during this stressful time.
Grumbling about dart-brow cooks who didn’t know how to follow the rules and keep their manners around outside Host Club hours, Zoro headed back into the cafeteria, wishing he hadn’t made that promise to see this thing to the end.
“Another!”
“Another!”
“‘ANOTHER!’ Both Luffy and Honey-sempai have cried, this time not as perfectly as in sync as before!!” Usopp announced into the microphone in his self proclaimed position of running commentator. The tension had grown to be too much for him the second the first cakes were brought out and he desperately needed this outlet or else his head would explode with excitement. “Surely Luffy isn’t growing full and slowing down at this point?!? Or maybe Honey-sempai’s cake was a fraction smaller? Ah, but surely such a thing is impossible, because all the cakes are poured into a mold to bake and – LUFFY! Stop licking the icing from the plate and your fingers!! The requirement is to eat the cake only – AH! HONEY-SEMPAI?!? Not you, too!!”
Both Usopp and the crowd went into shock as, instead of slowing down at this point like any normal human should have, the two seemed to pick up the pace and tack the challenge to a new level.
Yes, Usopp had originally boasted of his absolute confidence in his friend’s ability, but this, this was getting absolutely ridiculous! How could such a small body be keeping up so effortlessly with Luffy of all people?? This was anyone’s game at this point.
“The next cake on the list when they’re done with this one is German Chocolate, known for it’s – GERMAN CHOCOLATE?!?! OI! SANJI!! Are you trying to KILL them?!?”
The blond poked his head out of the kitchen long enough to glare at the one who dared to challenge his menu. “You got something to say about my cakes, long nose?”
Usopp shrunk back and offered a sheepish grin. “Ah, no. I was just-er-you, or someone, might want to make sure they get a glass of milk with this next dish.”
“Another!”
Off to the side at the Judges’ Table, Tamaki, Hikaru, and Kaoru sat in ponchos, with their umbrellas ready by their sides. Somehow, all three boys had worked themselves up into such a state over this eating contest that they were convinced both boys would explode before admitting defeat.
Tamaki was in tears at the mere thought of having to explain to the Haninozuka family that the heir had died because they let him eat cake. Visions of France during the Reign of Terror and him being taken to the guillotine in a horse-drawn hay cart filled his mind as he sat there frozen, no longer seeing what was going on about him.
Hikaru and Kaoru firmly believed their Lord to be an idiot for losing himself in such a fantasy. After all, it was pretty obvious Mori-sempai would be the one to take the blame should anything happen.
Mori was actually taking this pretty calmly, considering the risks involved. The only way the twins were able to tell that the man was nervous was due to him currently standing by Ace; no doubt for moral support. Ace, who had been previously watching the match with a serious look on his face from his spot by Kyouya, was now smiling and holding a polite conversation with his classmate in an effort to help Mori loosen up a bit.
“ANOTHER!”
Heads turned, expecting to see the next set of cakes be brought out, only the kitchen doors swing open instead, revealing Sanji as the blond calmly walked out, wiping his hands on the white apron tied around his waist.
“EH? What’s this?” Usopp asked outrageously. “The chef is leaving the kitchen! Could it be that he has admitted defeat before our competitors?”
Sanji scowled, offended that such an idea would even cross Usopp’s mind. “We’re out of ingredients,” he announced.
Heads swiveled to Haruhi, the one who had been placed in charge of purchasing ingredients by Kyouya himself.
“All the stores within a ten mile radius have been bought out, and all others have closed their doors to us with the reminder that the general populace needs to shop, too,” she explained simply, moving to gather a stack of plates from the pile that had been growing behind Luffy and Honey before taking her leave to the kitchen to help clean.
“B-but…” Usopp was at a loss. “R-right! Judges! What’s the score?”
Hikaru and Kaoru looked over their notes. “It’s a tie.”
The cafeteria echoed with the sounds of disapproval from the crowd. Surely things couldn’t end this way!
“Then let’s take this competition to Cake Town!” Luffy announced.
“Baka! There’s no such place!” Zoro roared from his place amongst the audience
“Eh? Cake Town?” Honey-sempai asked, the name catching his undivided interest.
“Yeah! It’s a town where all they do is bake cakes ALL day and night!” Luffy enthusiastically informed. “In fact, all the buildings and streets are made from cake!”
The crowd exchanged glances at the wide, sparkly-eyed look Honey was now donning.
Said glances turned to shock as the look immediately disappeared; both Honey and Luffy glaring out into the audience.
With a single nod of agreement, both boys leapt from their seats, sights set on a terrified Nami, who, up until this point, had been doing her best to remain as inconspicuous as possible.
Everyone stood frozen in shock as the usually mild-mannered loli-shota type host did all within his power to wrestle the bag away from the redhead, and then away from Luffy.
The tug-of-war did not last long before Luffy got the bright idea to use his height to his advantage and lifted the bag above his head, with Honey-sempai dangling from it. He then proceeded to open the bag and pull out the concealed, store-bought slice of cake that Nami had snuck in.
Not wasting any time to gloat over the discovery, Luffy downed the cake, wrapper and all, before smiling happily at Honey’s tears.
“LUFFY IS THE WINNER!!” Usopp announced as cheers erupted from the crowd.
Unable to stay and allow his brother to bask in victory, Ace quickly appeared to drag Luffy off, saying they were going to be late for their dinner party, and to announce the raffle winner over the school’s intercom system during the morning announcements.
Expecting Luffy to have a few things to say about this, the crowd shushed, and listened to the champion’s parting words of, “Hey, Ace? Do you think at the dinner party they’ll have pie?”
Awesome,..
