Yoyoi! I am so sorry for updating this late! I shall take full responsibility and cut open my stomach! Tekkai!

...I can't die...


It had been about a day since the escape from the naval base. Zoro's ankle had been over-attended to by Chopper, and it was healing up nicely – though for now, he had to use a cane. Surprisingly, Sanji hadn't made fun of him once. Luffy had been loading up on meat (although this wasn't unusual), and Nami had shut herself in her room and barely come out since.

Now, Sanji was below deck, smoking a cigarette and starting to come to some strange conclusions about what had happened yesterday. As if he had conjured him, a certain green-haired swordsman came hobbling down the stairs.

"Oi," he said. "Here you are."

"Here I am."

Zoro plopped himself down next to Sanji. "Mind telling me why you're down here?"

"Just thinking about stuff."

"So have I. Actually, I wanted to say something about that."

Sanji tensed up slightly. "Well?"

"Well… you see, I don't think we have any more reason to break up Luffy and Nami."

"Are you going to tell me why, or are you just going to leave me hanging?" Sanji blew some smoke in Zoro's face. The latter waved it away and glared.

"The thing is… I've found someone."

"Really? I pity the poor girl who has to bear the brunt of your hopeless affections. What's her name?"

"His."

"Pardon?"

"My… my new someone is a guy. You were right, I'm gay." Zoro glared at Sanji again. "Got a problem with that?"

"Not at all."

Zoro relaxed a little bit. "Good. That's good."

"So, back to my question: Who is he?"

Zoro rubbed the back of his neck and turned away. "The thing is… I don't know if he'll like me back." He took a breath. "He's a stupid dart-board brow blond love-cook."

Silence followed this proclamation. Zoro sighed and started to stand up, reaching for his cane, but Sanji muttered "Wait."

"Uh?"

"I think you should know that I found someone too."

"Well, hurry up and get it over with," Zoro said, sitting back down. "Is it Nami or Robin?"

"Neither."

"Then who is she?"

"He."

"…excuse me?"

"I'm bisexual. You probably don't know what that means."

"Of course I do, you baka."

Sanji blew out another puff of smoke. "My new someone, you see, just happens to be a shitty moss-head crap-swordsman."

Zoro stared at Sanji. "I see."

"So, are we…" Sanji looked at him. "…in agreement?"

"As long as you don't ogle any girls."

"But it's in my nature. I can't help it."

"Prince of Dumbass Kingdom."

"Moss Ball."


Luffy strolled into Nami's room without knocking. "Hey, Nami, I just walked in on Zoro and Sanji making out."

Nami looked up from her maps with a glint in her eye. "Really? Hm…" She muttered some things to herself, like 'keep it a secret' and 'worth a lot of money'. She grabbed a camera and ran out of the room, coming back a minute later with an evil grin.

"Luffy, do me a favor and don't tell anyone else about what you saw, okay?"

"Sure."

"Anyway, Luffy," said Nami, her voice a little bit more serious now. "Could you please shut the door? I want to talk to you privately."

Luffy shut the door and, as an afterthought, pulled the curtain over the porthole window. "What is it, Nami?"

"I'll get straight to the point. I've solved the riddle that Robin gave us."

"Ooh! What is it?" He bounced on his toes excitedly.

"It's…" she took a breath. "The answer's 'love'."

He tilted his head. "How is it…?"

"I'll explain later. And it does explain the recent actions of Usopp and Sanji. But, Luffy… the truth is…" she fiddled with her hands. "I… well, I actually do like you. A lot…" she turned pink.

"I like you too, Nami!"

"No, Luffy, I meant—I meant that I love you!"

He stared at her, apparently trying to comprehend the statement. She turned away. "I should have known you wouldn't understand."

"Wait, Nami," he said in an unusually serious tone. "Can I try something?"

She nodded, hesitantly. Luffy wasted no time bringing her close to him and hugging her tightly. She gasped before relaxing slightly in his grip. He released her a moment later and clapped his fist to his open palm.

"So that's it!"

"What's it?"

"Well, see, whenever I'm near you, I get this weird feeling in my stomach! And hugging you makes it better! Weird, I always thought it was hunger… so it's love!" he grinned, looking quite pleased with himself.

Nami was silent for a bit before quietly saying "Um… well, Luffy, do you want to… you know… date?"

"Date? Like the fruit?"

"No, the other kind of date."

"There's another kind!?"

Nami sighed and smiled. "Come with me."


Usopp led Chopper to the tangerine bushes. "Alright, Chopper, Nami's been in her room for the past few days, so we need to figure out how to get her out of there and closer to Luffy!"

"Yeah!" Chopper agreed quietly, trying not to alert Robin (who was reading on deck) of what they were up to.

Usopp pulled back the tangerine bushes, only to stare at what he saw and quickly withdraw with a huge grin on his face. "Chopper," he whispered. "I believe that our work here is done."

"Huh?" said Chopper, whispering as well. "What do you mean?"

In response, Usopp gestured to the bushes. Chopper quietly pulled them apart and gasped.

Luffy and Nami were seated together, Nami in Luffy's lap, kissing sweetly and tenderly. Both seemed to be enjoying it very much. Chopper giggled and went back to Usopp.

"We did it, Captain!"

"Yes!" Usopp high-fived Chopper – as much as one could high-five someone with a hoof. "Team Luna is officially disbanded!"


"WHAT!?"

Nami tsk'd. "Zoro, Sanji-kun, do you really want the whole crew to come running?"

The three were currently below deck, Zoro and Sanji having been invited by Nami. She'd just shown them the many pictures she'd taken of the two men kissing.

"Anyway, if you don't want the whole crew knowing of your, ah, special relationship—which I assume you don't—then you'd better cough up the money." She held out an expectant hand, a glint in her eye. "Five thousand beris per picture~!"

"Nami-swan, you're the one with all the money on this ship!"

"You witch! I just got out of my debt to you and now this!"

"Oh, don't worry; I'm sure I'll find some way to make you pay me, with or without money!"

"NAMI-SWAN!"

"GET BACK HERE, WITCH!"

Thank you to Moonlight Calls for the idea of Nami using the photos as blackmail! I'm sorry I didn't get your permission first, Moonlight, but I typed this today, and I was afraid that you'd take too long to reply to a request. I'll change it if you want me to :)

ALSO! I am very sorry for not warning you all earlier that there would be ZoSan in this! But if I had told you, it would have ruined the ending. Sowwies! X(

Story's done! Thank you for all your support, minna-sama~!
