Once there was a man that obtained everything, the legendary Pirate King Gold Roger. His last words before he was executed inspired people to sail the seas. All my wealth and treasure? It can be yours if you want it. Search for it! I left everything in that one place. People now set sail in search of romance. The world has now entered a Great Age of Pirates!
After the fight with Hody Jones, the Strawhats finally reach the new World. During the night, Zoro catches an intruder on the Thousand sunny. After a short fight the intruder faints on top of the swordsman. What will happen from here on?

Zoro stares at the unconscious woman on top of him. His gaze wanders over her long eyelashes, her slender nose and her full lips. He suddenly snaps out of his dreamy state, realizing he should get some help. He carefully pushes her of him, making sure she lands on the floor as soft as possible. The swordsman stands up and while looking down at the woman he decides to first bring her to the sick bay. Gently he picks her up in bridal style, wondering why he even bothered after her attack a while ago. With a slow pace, he walks to the door connecting the kitchen with the sick bay. After laying the woman down on the bed, he starts heading towards the men's quarters to get the doctor.
Upon entering the sleeping quarter, Zoro directly goes to Chopper's bunk. After carefully waking the doctor, he informs him of his new patient. Before leaving the quarter with the doctor, he looks around to check whether anyone noticed them. Since his other nakama seem to be fast asleep, he leads the doctor to the intruder.
As soon as they arrive at the sick bay, Chopper starts examining his new patient. Only after treating her infected wounds, he turns his attention to Zoro and softly mumbles "I took care of the wounds. Now we can only wait for our patient to wake up. It seems that the unconsciousness is caused by a lack of food."
From behind them comes the reply "I suppose that's my cue". Shocked they turn their head towards the entrance of the sick bay. There they see Sanji, leaning on the door frame. Checking the length of the cook's cigarette, Zoro concludes that he has been standing there for a while. Irritated by the cook's sneakiness, he growls "Dumbass cook, shouldn't you be still dreaming about finally getting lucky with a woman". Immediately after that he draws his swords to defend himself from Sanji's angry kicks. Once the cook decides he won't succeed in landing a kick on the swordsman, he mutters "shitty marimo" and heads to the kitchen to start making breakfast for the crew and the intruder.
Confused Zoro stares at the retreating cook. "I thought he would be delighted to have another woman on board" he mutters to Chopper. Before the doctor could react, they both hear a faint whisper asking "Where am I?" Chopper immediately runs over to the woman. Happy to see her awake, he enthusiastically answers "Hi I'm chopper! You're in my sick bay!". The woman stares at the talking reindeer. "A talking Raccoon?" she murmurs confusedly. 'I'm not a raccoon, I'm a reindeer!' Chopper yells. The woman nods and looks around the room.
The moment her gaze lands on Zoro, she jumps of the bed and takes a defensive stance. "Oi woman, calm down! We're not going to attack you" Zoro growls… Her eyes widen in panic. Once she calms down, she starts mumbling to herself "Woman? What should I do? My disguise isn't working." Seeing the clear frustration on the woman's face, Zoro replies "Don't sweat it… You're disguise is great considering the lack of reaction of the shitty cook". Chopper directly adds "He's right! I would not have noticed it if I didn't treat your wounds. But why do you need to disguise yourself?". The woman sighs, realizing she should tell more about herself in order to stay.
"I'll start by introducing myself. My name is Jun. As you already know, I'm a girl disguised as a boy. I'm not that fond of cross-dressing, but I needed to do this in order to hide from certain people. I cannot tell you who those people are. However, I swear I do not mean any harm, I'm not a criminal." Zoro grins and replies "Don't worry, we are the pirates here". Chopper immediately fills in "But we aren't bad pirates!". Suddenly their conversation is disturbed by Sanji shouting "Robin-swan, Nami-swan, breakfast is served. Oi rest of you! Food!". Chopper smiles at Jun and leads her to the kitchen.
When entering the kitchen, Chopper exclaimed "Hi all! We have a visitor. This is Jun!". Jun blinked in surprise when the complete crew happily answered "welcome" and started breakfast without finding it strange to have a visitor at the middle of the sea. She sees someone putting an extra chair at the table and heads that direction. Once seated, she studies the person that got her chair. He looks big and has brightly-colored blue hair. The man notices her staring and says "Yo bro, it's super to have you here. I'm Franky". Jun replies "Nice to meet you. I don't want to sound rude, but what exactly are you?" Franky laughs and replies "I'm a cola driven Cyborg. Ain't that super?" After a little nod of Jun, the Cyborg continues "I suppose the little boat next to the ship is yours. If it's ok, I will put it in our docking station for safe keeping."
Before Jun could reply a plate is put before her. She looks up and sees a blond man with a curly brow looking at her. He shortly introduces himself as Sanji before turning his attention to the two women at the table. Thanks to the cook's jabbering she learns that the women's names are Nami and Robin. Further she sees a man with a long nose telling tales to chopper about the 'mighty Captain Usopp'. She immediately knows that he is making up the stories and assumes he must be the Usopp mentioned in the tales.
She turns her head and has to blink several times after landing her eyes on a skeleton. Before she could react she suddenly hears the skeleton saying "I can see your surprise even though I have no eyes Yohohoho! Skull Joke!". After taking a sip of his tea, he continues "How rude of me, I should have first introduces me. My name is Brook." "What's with this crew… First there is a talking reindeer, then a robot and now a living skeleton." Jun mumbles in reply. "That's nothing!", a boy with a straw hat replies. "I'm a rubber boy! Shishishishi". While saying this he stretches his arm and steals some food from her plate. Shortly after that he receives a knock on the head by Nami yelling at him "Luffy! He's our guest, so leave his food alone!".
While Jun is still recovering from the chaotic atmosphere around her, Sanji walks to her and put some new food on her plate. "How's the food?" he politely asks. She looks at him and mumbles "It's ok". Upon hearing the unenthusiastic reply, the cook starts fuming. He attacks Jun by sending some kicks towards her. While she is busy dodging the kicks, an evil smirk appears on Zoro's face. The thought crosses his mind that the cook will definitely regret his action the moment he finds out she's a woman.
Not long after that everyone but Sanji starts leaving the kitchen. Jun decides to follow them. When arriving on the deck, she looks up and notices the pirate flag. During the night it was too dark to see it, so now she examines the drawing of the skull with a straw hat. She concludes by this that Luffy must be the captain of this ship, although it certainly didn't look that way during breakfast. She walks to the side of the deck and sees Franky rowing her boat into a gate of the ship.
She decides to look around the ship. Just after making this decision, she turns around and sees Luffy grinning at her. He jumps before her and happily invites her over "Hey Jun! Usopp, Chopper and I are going to play hide and seek. It's fun! Come play with us". Jun smiles and replies to the captain "I can't play hide and seek yet, because I don't know my way on the ship". Luffy grins and return to his play comrades. Jun's smile falters when she hears Luffy saying "Yosh! He's playing with us when he has looked around the ship". She sighs and her smile turns into a scowl when she sees Zoro smirking at her.
Angrily she starts walking around the ship. However, her anger soon changed to amazement when she arrives at the Aquarium bar. A few hours later she has already visited the Library, the Soldier Dock System, the workrooms, the Bathhouse and the sleeping quarters. She was even kicked out of the woman's quarters by Nami. After lunch she goes to the deck to view the mikan trees and the flower garden. There she has a little friendly chat with Robin who is going to sunbath near the flower patch.
Finally Jun heads to the last place she still has to see. Upon entering the crow's nest, she is delighted to see a gym. However, she is less happy to see the swordsman training there. She's about to leave the place when Zoro speaks up "Oi woman! Unless you prefer to go play hide and seek, I suggest you stay in here." She sighs and decides to train for a while. She confidently walks over to the dumb bells and picks one up of the same size as the one Zoro is currently using. It's her time to smirk when she notices his look of surprise. She earned his respect by her little show. After that they both train in a comfortable silence until Sanji called for dinner.
Dinner is as hectic as breakfast and lunch: a mix of laughter and shouts whenever someone fails to protect his food from Luffy. After dinner, Jun is leaning against the railing on the deck, watching the stars and wondering where she is going to sleep tonight. Suddenly someone puts a blanket on the railing next to her. She looks down and is shocked to see Zoro. He looks quite uncomfortable and mumbles "Take it! You can use my bunk tonight. I have to stay on watch anyway." Then his smirk returns and he adds "Unless the little princess doesn't dare to sleep in the men's quarters".
She scowls at him, snatches the blanket and heads towards the sleeping quarters. Before she enters the sleeping quarters, she looks over her shoulder and sees Zoro gazing at the stars. She smiles softly, thinking she will definitely sleep well tonight...
Well… I didn't receive my reviews, but I couldn't let down the people who wanted to follow my story. I got the advice to write longer chapters, so this chapter is a lot longer than the previous one. Please read and review.
