Crocodile's curiosity

Summaries :: 2 years later, Crocodile read newspaper again and saw Straw hat's crews picture…he saw everyone of them EXCEPT one, Up until now he still didn't get a chance to know what's a man who ruined his plan in the past looks like…this 'Mr,Prince'.

Disclaimer :: I do not own One Piece, it's Oda-sensei who create this wonderful manga!

It's funny to imagine if Crocodile meet our lovely Mr,Prince what will happen…I've always curious that these two never met each other face to face before. Up until chapter 620 ! XD Crocodile seems to forgot Mr,Prince already…so I make this fic up, that maybe Crocodile might used to wonder about how 'Mr,Prince' look like. It would be fun if Oda-Sensei write about this.

Daz Bones look at the sky above his head, the sky which is so blue and clear…there are birds flying through some white clouds and disappear. The view is so peaceful and calm that makes the memories about Impel Down almost faded as if he'd never been there before.

A deep voice laugh pulls him into reality. Sitting on some old boxes, is a man in black suit with a long, thick, dark gray pelted fur coat above his shoulders. Bones watch as a deep set, drooping eyes with thin eyebrows of 'sad' position staring on some contents or pictures in the newspaper in his hand. A smoke from a big, thick cigar disappears in the air while the owner starts to speak.

"So...that damn brat is still alive after all." Crocodile smirk.

"Seems like all of his crewmates are also return."

"Two years…and he still look like a damn annoying monkey, nothing's change"

Bones picture a face of Monkey D. Luffy in his head. Big eyes, wide smile with those innocent thoughts…TOO innocent that hardly to believe it's belong to one of the Captain's pirate with a bounty of 400 Millions Beri. The boy has something special which Bones didn't know what it is but he feel that this 'D' is far from the end. A man who can control that green hair swordsman is surely special after all.

Bones move his eyes to the pictures of Strawhat pirates in the newspaper.

"His crew members have increase…a skull?..."

"And a cyborg."

"Miss All Sunday's also there."

"Not surprise. That woman always find a place to escape from marines. What I want to know is…this…"

A golden hook point to a picture of a blond man, which is actually just the back of a blond man.

"Black Leg Sanji?"

"I just notice I've never seen his face before, not in Alabasta up until now."

"I can't remember him too…" The memories back in Alabasta that Bones remember most is the time when that swordsman gained victory…and nothing else.

"I saw his wanted poster. That ugly drawing skill of marine made me feel sick. If that the real face of him, I feel pity somehow…"

"Why do you interest in him?"

"That idiot must be the one calling himself 'Mr,Prince' back then when we were in Alabasta"

"You mean the one who ruined your plan?"

Not answering. Instead, the former Shichibukai throw the newspaper away somewhere behind the street, then begin to stand up and walk. Bones silently follow him.

"He didn't ruin my plan, but that idiot piss me off…to think that an ugly curly-eyebrow is the one who call himself Mr,Prince…"

"Maybe his true form is different from that wanted poster."

"Who's care?...but if I meet that bastard again, this time I will make sure to make him dry painfully for what he has done in the past…"

Somewhere, on the ship called 'Thousand Sunny'

"Heh?"

"What's wrong Sanji-kun?"

"It's nothing Nami-swan. I just feel like someone is talking about me, that's all."

"Maybe they're talking about the wanted poster of yours…"

"Oi, Shut up you Marimo."

"Admit the truth, idiot-cook."

"NO. NEVER. Someday my handsome face will be introduce to the world and the girls all around the world will scream my name…"

"Scream for your ugly face, I guess..."
