He opened his eyes. He was lying on a sandy beach. How did he come here? He thought for a while, trying to remember what happened.
Oh yea..
He had set sail in the hope of finding the grand line. They say that whoever entered the grand line, never returned. Why? Because it is where the pirates are. Long ago, all people lived in peace together. Then, one day, a war broke out between pirates and the rest of the world. The battle was long and finally the Marines banned the pirates to an adorned ocean, the grand line. He had been curious about the pirates and wanted to find them. Suddenly, a storm came and capsized his boat. He apparently had been washed up here on this island.
He stood up and started walking. Suddenly, a deer appeared out of the forest what was on the island. He wore a blue hat. The animal stopped in front of him.
''Howdy! I'm chopper. Chopper the reindeer! Hmm... You're new to the grand line, aren't ya? Golly, it's been a while since someone new came here. Someone ought to teach you how things work around here! I guess I have to do that.''
A red heart appeared in front of his chest. He looked at it with fascination. He looked at the reindeer. ''See that heart? That is your soul, the very culmination of your being! Your soul starts off weak, but can grow stronger when you gain a lot of LV.'' He looked even more confused now. ''What does LV stand for? Why, LOVE, of course! You would like some love, don't you?'' He looked at Chopper puzzling. Pirates are supposed to be mean, but the deer was really nice (and a bit weird..). '' Don't worry, I'll share some with you!'' He took out some golden pellets. ''Here, LOVE is shared through little golden friendliness pellets.'' The reindeer smiled. "You ready? Try to get as many as you can!'' He said while throwing them in the air. He moved his hand to grab one. As soon as he touched it, he felt extreme pain. He fell to the ground holding his hand. The reindeer was smiling evilly. ''You idiot. In this world it's kill or be killed! Now DIE!'' Chopper laughed and threw more pellets at the man on the ground.
He could see his life flashing before his eyes. He braced himself for the bullets. But..nothing hit. He looked at Chopper who was just as confused as he was. Suddenly, a few hands appeared out of no-were and hit the deer, sending his flying away. He looked at his saviour. A dark haired woman came from the shadows.
''What a terrible creature, torturing someone he just met.'' He looked at the woman. She appeared to be in her begin thirties, which makes her about eight year older. She smiled at him. ''Ah, do not be afraid, new one. I'm Nico Robin, caretaker of the poneglyphs. Like already has been said, you're the first outsider to come here in a long time.'' She offered him her hand. ''Come, I will guide you through the forest.'' He took her hand and she pulled him up. They started walking. ''Oh, I completely forgot to ask. What is your name?''
''My name is Sabo.''
