Recap:

The next thing he knew, the house exploded, and he felt his whole body being crushed to the ground. For once, fear erupted into him and he screamed, he couldn't die like this! He hadn't been able to find him and kill him yet.


"Quiet! You don't have to scream!"

Ryuu opened his eyes, he was now one the ground, his back against the debris and hard ground. He was taken back, Zoro was hovering over him, blocking some of the debris from hitting him, staring at him with a slight annoyed expression, "Damn it! You're going to make me deaf if you keep screaming like that!"

He couldn't believe it… "Why.. Why did you do that?" He spoke, shocked.

"Do what? You wanted to die?" He said, almost yelling at him.

Ryuu snapped out of it and sat up slightly, pulling himself out from under Zoro, "Nothing." he spoke, then looked at him, "Hey, your wound.."

"ZORO!" Luffy cried, "You and Ryuu are okay!" He yelled, standing next to Nami and the chief. "We couldn't let our member die!"

"Wait what?" Ryuu screamed.

"You're part of the team!" Luffy spoke, "I like you, so you're joining!"

Ryuu hung his head, 'Damn. I don't have time for this…'

"I can't stand this!" The chief yelled, "I can't stand jut standing here anymore, not doing anything! We've worked so hard for this village, and to let that clown destroy it all! I won't stand for it!" He yelled and proceeded to take off.

Ryuu got an idea. "Hey! Luffy!" He spoke, walking up to him. "I'll join on two conditions!"

Luffy nodded, "Okay!"

he held up one finger, "Condition number one, Get rid of Buggy."

"Sounds good!"

"Condition number two, the next time we meet, I'll join your crew no matter what!" Ryuu spoke, waving and running off.

"Okay! See you later Ryuu!" Luffy spoke waving and looked at the two other crew members who shook their heads. "What?"

"Luffy." Nami started, "Do you know how big the ocean is? You're never going to see that guy again! He just tricked you!"

"No he didn't. We'll see him again, I know it." Luffy spoke proudly, "Now let's go save that old man before he kills himself." He spoke walking off.

Zoro looked off to where Ryuu had left, then continued with Luffy, maybe the idiot was right.

Ryuu stood in his one room boat, smiling as he sailed off to the distance, to the next island. "So long Luffy, maybe… we might meet, and I wouldn't mind becoming apart of the crew…" he turned around and looked off to the distance. "Just wait, I'll find you, Onii-chan."


Ryuu patted his stomach. "Wow! I haven't had a good meal like that in a while!" he spoke to himself, smiling. He sat at the Baratie, a floating restaurant. Ryuu leaned back, his booted feet crossed and his black pants and black long sleeve and dark blue t-shirt still gave the impression of a little kid. 'Let's see, I have about 50 beri on me now. The only reason I came here was because I heard that Onii-chan was seen here a while ago, that and the food is so great!' He smiled before taking another drink.

"Well look at you." A familiar voice spoke behind him.

Ryuu turned and his jaw dropped, "N-Nami?" he spoke, seeing the orange haired girl, the swordsman and now the crew had a new member, a boy with curly black hair and an unusually long nose…

"Luffy agreed to your terms, now you have to deal with ours." Zoro spoke.

He was still shell shock and then growled, "Big deal, speaking of which were is the stupid kid?" he said, looking away.

The three sat down, "He came in here, then never came out, I'm the captain, name's Ussop!"

Ryuu looked at Zoro and Nami, "You replaced Luffy?"

"No, just ignore him." Nami spoke, then looked over her shoulder, "Hey servant!"

Ryuu looked back and could have died, there stood Luffy, and he noticed him, "Hey! It's Ryuu!" he ran up to him, "I fit your condition! So now you're going to join my crew right? Of course I have to work it off but hey it shouldn't be too long!"

The dinner got slightly quiet. "Ryuu?" "That killer?" "He's here?"

He banged his head on the table, "Thank you Luffy, I was hoping this wouldn't happen…"

Luffy then looked at the crew, "You! How can you guys be enjoying yourselves when I'm suffering? Don't you think that's unfair?"

"Unfair?" Zoro spoke, looking at Ussop, "That's our right isn't it?"

"True."

Ryuu watched as Luffy picked his nose, then placed his snot in Zoro's water. As he picked it up, Ryuu actually thought Luffy was going to get away with it…

"This restaurant is very good, it seems unfair to you… but why don't you drink this yourself!" He yelled, slapping the water in the poor captain's mouth.

"What are you doing?" Luffy cried.

"Me? What the hell are you doing?" Zoro yelled, while Nami, Ussop and even Ryuu were laughing.

"Oh thank god that we've met! You may laugh at me, love! As long as I'm with you, I'd become a pirate or another evil being! But unfortunately out fate is doomed.." Sanji, one of the chief's Ryuu had been able to avoid, said to Nami.

"Is it me?" Honor Sef, the main chief. "You can leave and become a pirate, we don't need you here anymore."

"Hey! Old man, what's the deal, I'm the second chief of this restaurant, and you're telling me to just leave?" Sanji spoke.

"You always fight with the customers, and when you see beautiful women, you flirt with them. You're food's not that great, you're going to drag the restaurant down. Everyone here doesn't like you and I think you know that. Therefore, you better get out of here and become a pirate or whatever you want, the best thing you do is get out of the restaurant as soon as possible." Sef said.

Sanji held his collar, "What are you talking about? You think that I'm not upset about what you just said? For whatever the reason you can't despise my food, anyway I won't leave here no matter what!"

"You dare hold my collar you brat?" Sef said, slamming Sanji into the table.

Ryuu was a bit taken back, it seemed a little… harsh.

Sanji sat up, "Listen. I don't care how many times you tell me to leave, I'm going to be the chief of this restaurant forever! You got a problem with that? I'll stay here until you die!"

"I won't die for another 100 years." Sef said walking away.

"Watch your words." Sanji growled.

Ryuu sighed, "Well." he spoke, getting up, "I think-"

Zoro grabbed his shirt collar, "And where do you think you're going? You need to see your new boat you're going to be living on."

Ryuu growled, and only let himself be dragged on to the Going Merry. He was a bit surprised, and looked around, "Wow. Nice." He spoke, turning a bit while Zoro stood still.

"Zoro-sempai! Look out!"

"Die Ryuu!"

Ryuu turned, looking to see two men jumping at him, swords drawn and he side stepped. "Ah, Joni and Yusaku, long time no see you two. Trying to collect the bounty on my head?" he spoke looking at the two, crouching down to look at them, "But you know…" he smiled evilly, "I can just kill you right now if you want." he spoke holding onto the hilt of his katana.

He felt a blade against his neck, "Hey, quit it." Zoro spoke. "Joni, Yusaku, you can't kill him. He's part of the crew now." He spoke, drawing the sword away from his neck.

Ryuu only pouted, "No fun Zoro." he said, crossing his arms.

Joni and Yusaku got up, "Is Luffy wise on that? I mean… You know who he is right? Ryuu Ansatsu, an assassin, you can't trust him!"

"Yeah, once he get's orders, he'll kill you, he even killed a little-"

Ryuu slammed his foot in Joni's stomach, "You want to continue? You want to finish that sentence? Well?" he almost yelled. "What I do on my assignments is my business, not yours!" he growled, turning away and sitting on the back of the ship.

If there was one thing Ryuu hated, it was recollecting his past missions, not all of them were easy on his heart. He laid back, closing his eyes as the sun warmed his face, and he feel asleep.
