Meeting Usopp and finally the herbs!
I awake to the sound of oniisan light snoring. I gently open my eyes slowly because the sun is blinding me. I can feel bandages on my whole torso and my shirt was gone. The bandage covered everything up and I looked down to see a few red blotches. I thought I healed most of it? Usually I can't heal as fast when my blood supply is low. Which it probably is. In the distance I can make out an island but it will probably take us a while still to get there.
"Sachi-san you're awake! Are you ok"? I look over to see Luffy runs and sits in front of me with concern wash over his face. I let my hand roam my stomach and when my fingers reach the red blotches they still felt tender. I look up to see Luffy was watching me to make sure I am ok.
"Luffy-sama who did my bandages". I look over to the other boat sailing with us but I can't see Nami anywhere.
"Zoro did them with the help of Nami. He said you will sleep it off but after a few hours and you were still bleeding. They finally wrap you up because they were concern because you lost lots of blood". I nod in understanding as I try to sit up some more but felt a small sharp pain. I close my eyes to try to close my wound but all that does is make me feel even crappier. I open my eyes to see Luffy looking up at me with a frown.
"Sachi-sama your devil fruit supper awesome but you should be careful how you use it. I don't like to see my nakama getting sick". I smile at Luffy concern.
"I'm going to be fine Luffy-sama. I have had my devil fruit since I was 7. The only reason my devil fruit effecting me so much is because that stupid clown ate all my medical candy. I have to make more but our boat has no kitchen and Nami-sama boat looks like it holds only one room. So don't worry ok". Luffy still didn't look happy but nodded. It is nice that he cares so much.
"Sachi-nee I agree with our captain. I know what you can do and that you are strong but I don't need you to die on me. So until you get more medical lollipop do not use your devil fruit and stop trying to take my blows"! I look over to see oniisan looking at me not so happy. Gees it is not like I died or anything. No one said anything and Luffy went back to sit in the front of our boat to watch the island get closer. When we get on that island I am going to eat and buy my herbs. Maybe even find a kitchen to borrow! I look down at my bandage chest. Can't walk through town like this. I only have the rose shirt so I need to wear it. I look around the boat and I can't find it. Nami was sitting at the ledge looking out at the island.
"Nami-sama". I call out and she looks over at me suspiciously then gave me a small smile. I grimace through the pain and wobbly walk over to Nami. I can feel Oniisan eyes on me. I'm way worse than I thought! When I reach by her side she did not look happy.
"Sachi-san you have to be careful. I just did your bandages and next time it will cost you! What do you want anyway"? I sit back down and smile up at her.
"Fair enough. Next time I will pay you and I came over to thank you for bandaging me up! That was really nice of you". She looked taken back for a second but gave me a small smile.
"You're welcome. At least someone on this person understands business". Oniisan glared at Nami and mumbled something under his breath as he went back to sleep.
'Nami-sama what did you do with my shirt? It is the only one I have". Surprise washed over her face.
"Serisly that was the only one you had. I need to take you shopping. I was somehow able to wash out all the blood and since I was sewing up Luffy-san hat I sewed up yours too". I never go shopping. Oniisan and I usually just go in and out of a store quickly. We spend more money on food then cloths. Nami handed me back my shirt and I looks like I never got shot! Awesome. I slip it on and it hides my bandages perfectly. The only one showing is the one on my arm. In a few minutes we finally reach the shore.
"Id be reckless to go straight into the Garand line now"! I look over to see Oniisan is watching her and Luffy got an apple core between his teeth.
"Yea some meat would be nice to have first. Eating nothing but fruit all day is no good…." .
"Need some booze too"! I say mine too.
"Don't forget we need cake"! Nami was mean enough to throw apples at us. Throwing apples at a wounded person. How mean. I rub my head to soothing the pain. Luffy caught both apples with his extended arms and started eating them.
"What'er you talking about? That is not what I mean! The grand line the most dangerous place in the world! On top of that it is crawling with strong pirates that are looking for the One Piece! And there all on strong powerful boats of course"! Nami sounded like she was talking to idots. What else do we need…? But she does have a point. A doctor would be nice. Luffy had to talk with his mouth full of apple so I could barely understand him.
"We need more people too". I think that what he said which is true.
"The number of crew members, the lack of equipment on this ship….There's no way we can survive like this"! I never thought of it that way. If we go to the grand line were toast!
"I agree with Nami. If we go like this we will be dead in a day"! Nami smiled and nodded with me.
"See at least there one smart person here who understands from you dimwits". That's a bit harsh and I could not help but frown at her choice of word for my captain and oniisan.
"Ya we need a cook, and a musician". The cook a good idea but why does Luffy want a musician?
"A musician"? Oniisan was probably wondering like me. I think that the last type of person we should add! He even started laughing like it was a stupid idea which it is not. I could see Nami hair start to look a bit wild and she looked annoyed.
"Your so stupid…As you can see that island we are coming to has people living on there. Hopefully we can buy a boat"! I node too.
"I hope they have a small herb store. I need to make me my lollipops so I can use my powers to the max and I don't get sick"! I watch as Oniisan agree with me and Luffy just smiled as he watch the island get closer. We should be pulling up onto the beach any astound!
"Yaa land"! I yell as I get up way to fast. I started seeing black spots and my head feels like its flying. Before I fall over and hurt my head I feel arms around my hips and I look up. The black splotches disappear to reveal Luffy smiling at me and Oniisan does not look to happy as he takes over Luffy spot.
"Be careful Sachi-nee. One day you are going to give me a heart attack". I giggle as he half drags and half caries me out of the boat. I hold onto his shirt as he younds and stretches.
"Finally on dry land…There's a village just pass here". I weakly smile.
"Good because I need food so I don't keel over dead". I start laughing only to quiet down to see oniisan give me a death glare and Luffy looked concern. Nami on the other hand was not even interested. Ok bad joke.
"It is a small town".
"Oh in that case, meat, meat, meat, meat, and cake for Sachi-san"! I smile as Luffy happen to mention about my need for cake! Drool dripped down Luffy face as he ran at Nami who looked pretty disgusted and brought the map close to her chest.
"There's a place in this village to eat right"? I sinker as ticks grew on her face and I could hear Oniisan small laughter too.
"Can you not think about meat for one second'? Nami yelled and I look up at the cliff as I hear the bushes rumble with the wind. For some reason I have a feeling there are a few people up there. All of a sudden pirate flags lifted from the bushes and Luffy dodge bullets at his feet. What the hell! Are we being shot at? Nami hid behind the boat and Oniisan moved me behind him. A teen boy with a long nose stood at the cliff all proud with a green slingshot in his hand.
"That is so cool"! Luffy yelled as he smiled up at all the flags.
"Is this really the time to be impress"? Nami stayed hidden behind the boat and Oniisan stayed in front of me which I don't mind. Long nose up there started laughing at us.
"I am Usopp! The pirate that reigns over this village! People praise me and then praise me more as they call me Captain Usopp! If you are thinking about attacking this village then forget it! My 80 million subordinates will not sit by idly when you attack my village"! Wow that a bit over the top. He seems what the word. I can't think of it.. Got it.
"That guy seems to be filled with shit"! I whisper and my brother only heard as he starts laughing!
"Oniichan it is full of shit! Nice try". He continues to chuckle as Luffy looks amazed as he believes long nose words. Nami on the other hand leans back on the boat with arms cross and unimpressed written all over her face.
"Your lying aren't you"? Nami yelled out and I giggled as I lean on Oniisan more. My legs were getting a bit tiered. Zoro felt the shift in weight and turned around so I faced his back.
"Get on. You still not feeling good right"? I nod as I get on his back. I smile as my weight leaves my legs and are now hanging on each of his side.
"What he was lying"? Luffy yelled at Nami and Usopp did this weird dance from above the cliff. I am just waiting to see him slip and fall. That would hurt but I would laugh too!
"Curse you and your crafty tactics! The amount of men I said may be a bit drastic but I can assure you I have many under me!
"Like maybe three people"? I was right. I knew I felt some small people up there!My feeling have never lied to me ever! The flags raised as three small kids yelled from the bushes.
"Ahhh! She found out"! I watch as they ran away scared shitless. I frown at that because we are not that bad. I hope they don't take us the wrong way!
"Hey you guys! Don't run away"! Usopp yelled to them but I am sure they ignored him!
"I have never heard of a pirate using a sling shot before"! Nami picked up some small ball from the sand and blew the sand away to reveal a metal ball. That could really hurt someone! Luffy started laughing and I looked at him a bit crazy. Why is he laughing?
"Your neat"! Luffy continue to laughs and Usopp up there does not look happy.
"How dare you insult me". He pulls out his sling shot and aims at Luffy. I don't like that at all but Luffy can reflect bullets so I doubt it will hurt but still.
"People call me Usopp the proud because I am such a proud man! You saw it just now"! I don't think he is a man but more like a teen who is actually scared and is lying to make himself feel more confident! Luffy covers his eyes with his hat and he looks ominous!
"My sling shot skills are far average than your average pistol skills"! Luffy pushed his hat down and with a stern voice and a creepy ass smile said.
"Now that you have drawn your weapon, will you put your life on the line". Wow! That sounds deep. I never thought he has it in him.
"Huh"? Usopp looked stun as he held his weapon in place.
"I'm saying though aren't for threatening people". Oniisan grins and unsheathes one of his katanas.
"What you are looking at are real pirates"! oniisan yells. I don't know how he will fight with me on his back. I watch as Usopp releases but nothing was heard and he feel to his knees with tears in his eyes.
"Real pirates defiantly have way more punch behind their words… Awesome"! Luffy smiles as oniisan looks at him and gives his a knowing smile. They start to laugh and I join in on Oniisan back.
"We stole though lines"! Usopp looked stun and confuse. My stomach growled and I blush as oniisan turned to me giving me the hold on we are almost done look. I smile and give him I can still hold off smile.
"From Shanks, A pirate I respect". I have heard of him. I read somewhere that he is one of the seven pirate war lords or something.
"You know the grate pirate Shanks". Usopp leaned over way to much and he fell down the cliff and like I said earlier I laughed at him. I had to stop as it took way to much energy from me that I really don't have to give away.
"Yasopp is your dad right"? Does Luffy know this kids dad. Wow the world a small place after all!
"Yay! Yasop is my old man…But how do you know that"? That going to be a long story.
"I am really sorry to interrupt but I feel like shit and I am starving over here. Captain do you mind asking Usopp over there were the food is. My blood supplies to low". To make my point I stuck my tongue out. Oniisan and Nami looked worried at me and Luffy looked at Usopp.
"I will tell you but first meat and cake". Usopp blinked and got up and gave a good look at me. He looked scared.
"Wow you look like your withering away! Should we find you a doctor"? He ask as he tried to avoid looking at me.
"No I am fine but I need sugar"! I paint as I yell out my request. This sucks stupid clown eating my stupid candy! Usopp showed us the way to a small restaurant and Oniisan gently sat me down beside Luffy. We order quickly and as soon as the food hit the table I stuffed myself. Oniisan order me me t-bone and potatoes with a ceaser salad. I was finish before anyone else. I can feel my energy come back as I order there cookie dough cake. I ask him to bring the whole cake and Nami gave me a suspicious look.
"Does anyone want a slice if not and you have a week stomach I recommend not to look". No one said anything and I dig in. I watch as Nami face turned a bit green as I ate my cake happily. This cake is bigger than the one in the last town. Usopp didn't even look as I cleaned the crumbs off the plate.
"That was supper yummy"!
"You going to be ok"? Luffy ask and I smiled at him!
"I will be fine. Give me one second then I can remove my bandages"! I close my eyes and close all the ones that are still open. The one on my arm finally seals but I still don't have enough to energy to not make it a scar.
"Waiter can I have a chocolate milk shake pleas". The waiter looked away disgusted as she took my cake plate away. I unravel the bandage around my arm and put the bandage on my dirty plate. I look along the jagged scar that looks years old even though I just got it yesterday. All of a sudden Luffy grab my arm and moved my arm so he can scan the scare better. His touch gave me tingles and I don't know why.
"Sachi-san will you be keeping this scare"? I pull my hand away and Usopp look petrified.
"How did you get such a bad scar"? He stuttered and I laugh as my milk shake came.
"I did it to myself and don't worry Luffy-sama. After this milk shake it will disappear". Usopp looked like it was unbelievable while Oniisan continue drinking his grog or something with alcohol. He has seen it to many times to count. I drink up my milk shake and halfway I concentrated and watch as the scar faded away into my skin tone. It disappear and I finish my drink off. Luffy had stares in his eyes and Nami and Usopp looked amazed.
"Usopp is there a store or a small shop I can buy some herbs"? He shook his head to get rid of the shock.
"Ya when you leave the shop go right and it just a few houses up". I nod as I get up.
"I have to go buy some. You understand right? Also which hand is right so I know I turn right when I leave"? Nami raised an eyebrow at my question but Usopp pointed to my supposedly right hand. I clench it so I don't forget and I walk to the door.
"Be careful Sachi-san". I turn back and smile.
"Ay ay captain". I walk out the door and turn in the direction my hand clench. I walk down a few houses and to my luck I find the herb store. I walk in to hear a door bell ring. No one was in sight but there was dry herbs in boxes all over the store with their name on it. Let's see I need Valerian for my relaxing and sleeping lollipop. I found it in the far corner. I fill a small bag with it and move on to my next herb. Dried up green tea leaves, this is good for energy! Ah they have Siberian Ginseng too! Hmm I also need wheat grass! That supper important to make new blood. I find it in the far corner and I buy their whole stock. I look around for my last herb but that one supper rare and is more popular in the grand line. I walk over to the counter and put my new items down. The old lady smiles up at me and weighs my herbs.
"My what a young lady like yourself need all these herbs"? I smile as I pull out my bag of belli.
"I need these herbs to make my medical lollipops. Came up with the recipe myself". I pay her as she thanks me and I leave the store. Now to find a kitchen. I look around and find spot the mansion on the hill. I guess that were I will go. I am sure they have at least one nice lendable kitchen. On the way I buy other ingredients to help make my lolly! I walk up with my eyes never leaving the building. I made it even though I am sure I took the long way. I walked up to the gate and two guards stood there. Now how am I supposed to get inside?
