Hi everyone! Sorry this has been a while since it was updated, and also for it being short but I hope you like it anyways! :D
Monster
Zoro stared at the large dumbbell that lay in front of him. It was so large it wouldn't fit into the lookout/workout tower. So heavy, that even Zoro himself had trouble lifting it.
It was perfect.
Specially made by Franky as no shop made any heavier than his old ones and if Zoro wanted to get stronger, his weights had to get heavier.
It was so heavy in fact, that Zoro was completely out of breath just getting it from the work room downstairs to the lawn. He grinned and stretched his arms. This was just what he wanted.
After five lifts with both hands, he was tired. He was sweating. Prefect.
He heard a chuckle behind him.
"Too heavy for you, Marimo?"
"Shut up dart board. At least I'm actually strong enough to lift it."
Sanji scowled. "Just because I don't train my arms so that they become giant marimo sausages doesn't make you stronger than me. My legs have ten times the strength that yours do."
"Prove it then" Zoro smirked, setting the dumbbell down with a thud. "Lift it with your legs".
"Idiot marimo" Sanji muttered, but nonetheless stepped up to the dumbbell.
After about three lifts, his leg felt as though it was on fire, the muscles burned and ached. He gave up.
"Hah! See curly, I'm stronger." Zoro grinned triumphantly.
"That just proves that you don't listen Marimo, I said that my legs were stronger than yours, not that I could lift more."
"You just don't want to admit that you're weaker than me"
Sanji though that Zoro was getting too smug for his own good and decided to kick the little sense that he had back into that thick mossy mound of his that he called a head.
"You're just jealous that I can lift with my legs, Marimo" He spat at Zoro while kicking him.
Zoro drew his katana just as fast to block it. "Wanna repeat that, shit cook?"
Their fight escalated quickly, and they got so involved that they didn't hear Luffy approaching.
"Oi Zoro!" he yelled, causing the two men to stop their fight.
"What Luffy!" He grunted, trying to hold the block he had against Sanji's foot.
Luffy bent down and casually picked up the dumbbell that lay at his feet, swinging it over his shoulder and then walked with it to the other side of the ship where he set it down gently.
"If you're not using it, move it! It was using up all the space on the lawn!" He grinned at the two before turning away, yelling presumably to Usopp and Chopper that they had room to play tag now.
Zoro and Sanji stared after him, dumbfounded.
"Did he...?"
"Yep"
"But he made it look like a feather" Sanji said weakly. "Have you ever even seen him train?"
Zoro swallowed, "Nope".
Sanji reached a hand into a pocket and hastily lit a cigarette, "He's a monster."
Zoro nodded "I think that's the only thing we'll ever agree on Ero-cook".
Not a word of that incident has ever been mentioned between the two again, though Zoro lets Sanji use the huge weight whenever he himself is not. Just to prove a point of course.
P.S Sometimes, Luffy just owns. XD
Thanks for reading and all the wonderful reviews I have received!
Please tell me what you thought! :D
